– Shall we just say, it’s the calm before the storm next week which will see the release of PUSHPA: THE RULE PART 2?
Has the release of Chhaava been postponed? Why was no formal announcement made by the producers for the postponement?
– The producers must’ve not made a formal announcement of the postponement because except for the announcement of the scheduled release on 6th December, in the teaser (released many weeks back), there was no other indication that the film would hit the screens next week. By implication, therefore, it was evident that the film had been postponed. Otherwise, the trailer would’ve been released, and the other usual activities around the release would’ve started at least in mid-November. Incidentally, instead of clashing with PUSHPA: THE RULE PART 2, CHHAAVA will now come on 14th February, 2025.
Why did big stars not perform at the IFFI in Goa this year?
– Stars are difficult to get after agencies have started managing their affairs. Their demands are unrealistic! It is learnt that Allu Arjun backed out at the last minute after agreeing to remain present for the IFFI’s closing ceremony.

When I first met Gulzar sir, I thought he would hire me as his Assistant Director, I started going to his office, work on screenplay was in full swing and I joined the writers’ team and when the screenplay was done, I asked Gulzar Sir if I could get a chance in the technical crew, but Sir had other plans. He asked me which part do you think is the best among these three roles? I said all three of them are great. He said, ‘But, if you will have to pick one, who will that be?’ It was like dreams comes true, before a legendary director and being able to choose one character. I said, ‘If given an option, I will choose Jaimal Singh.’ He asked, ‘Why?’ I said, ‘His name is Jimmy and so is my pet name. Until now, Gulzar sahab knew me as Jasjeet Shergill. He said, ‘Oh, okay, do me a favour, grow your beard and hair because you are doing that role.’ I almost fell off the chair. That is how it all started.”

After ‘Maachis’, Jimmy starred in a film titled Jahan Tum Le Chalo, “I played the lead alongside Sonali Kulkarni, it was a good film but it wasn’t released properly, then some critically acclaimed films like ‘Mohabbatein’, ‘Dil Vil Pyar Vyar’, ‘Munna Bhai MBBS’, ‘Tanu Weds Manu’, and ‘My Name Is Khan’ happened.”

Now Jimmy Shergill’s ‘Sikandar Ka Muqaddar’, is streaming on an OTT platform.

In a recent interview, when Sana’s mother was asked about her getting replaced in her debut film, she said that Sana never wanted to be an actor in the first place.

She shared with Lehren Retro, “That was not her cup of tea. She never wanted to be an actress. Like, how you force in the family, ‘kar lo beta’ but she was like, ‘nahi mumma mujhe nahi karna‘. Firstly, she doesn’t wear sleeveless tops, or other short clothes. She was given a low-neck thing to wear, she came back running. She didn’t even come out of her room. Then they took someone else, that was the main thing. She still doesn’t wear such clothes.” Zarina insisted that Sana “doesn’t want to be an actress.” “We never even talk about it now, not even in a joking way,” she said.

Mukesh Khanna Recently Questioned Tiger Shroff’s Ability To Portray Shaktimaan

By
RUBY ZAIDI

Mahabharata and Yalgaar fame veteran actor MUKESH KHANNA criticized Tiger Shroff’s ability to play Shaktimaan, suggesting he lacks the necessary gravitas and stature for the role.

Mukesh Khanna emphasized that Shaktimaan’s power stems from wisdom and seriousness, not just physical strength, and felt that Tiger Shroff’s current image doesn’t align with these qualities.

Mukesh Khanna highlighted that Shaktimaan is a sophisticated and evolved character, not merely a physical fighter. He stressed that Shaktimaan possesses wisdom and seriousness, making him more than just a brawler. This underscores the need for an actor who can convey these attributes.

Mukesh Khanna’s television series Shaktimaan on Door Darshan was a mix of ethics and fantasy, education and entertainment and ancient wisdom and modern technology. It was also one of the most popular superhero shows of the 1990s.

Mahabharata and Yalgaar fame actor Mukesh Khanna, who played the title role, became a household name and made a special place in the audience’s hearts.

Mukesh Khanna was also the show’s producer.

The show had a brilliant storyline and presentation.

The show was so popular that children would skip school on Saturdays to watch it. The producers moved the show to Sundays to address this issue.

The show aired for nearly eight years and had a total of 450 episodes.

RUBY ZAIDI

Reminiscing one incident from the shoot of a film, Dia Mirza said, “We were shooting a funny scene with Rajpal Yadav, and during that scene, the actor who was playing Salman’s mother was waiting for her shot. Salman then told me that the same lady played the heroine in one of his early films! I was like what? I was shocked, I could not believe it! He was like yeah she was my leading lady in a film. I was like, then she is your age and she is playing your mother? He was like, yeah and one day, you will play my mother!”
Then we just laughed, but see Salman Khan is still working hard, playing lead roles, he is still young and handsome.” That’s why he is the Megastar and one of the biggest superstars of the Globe.
