Pakistani Actress Mehwish Hayat and Yo Yo Honey Singh’s collaboration.
By Daniel
Mehwish Hayat and Yo! Yo! Honey Singh’s collaboration is finally out — the music video for ‘Jatt Mehkma’ sees the actor star as a mobster’s girlfriend or wife.
In the music video, which dropped on Friday and already amassed 1.1 million views in five hours, Mehwish Hayat is dressed to the nines à la mobster Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s. She wears a black dress and tiered pearls with her hair in an updo. Honey Singh is equally snazzy in his clothes donning a heavy fur coat and pinstriped suit beneath it.
Tiger Shroff’s Ability To Portray Shaktimaan
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.

By

According to the media reports,
Abhishek Bachchan is being allegad of cheating on Aishwarya Rai Bachchan with his Dasvi co-star Nimrat Kaur, but Bollywood Reporter www.bollywoodreporters.com found the news of divorce and seperation is a rumour based on speculations.
Now, some mischievous people (netizens) are digging out their old interviews and sharing them on social media. In one of the interviews, while promoting Dasvi, Nimrat can be heard talking about her ex, which is going viral.
Talking to Siddharth Kannan, Nimrat said, “I don’t want to say too much because the guy is married now and has kids. It’ll be bad if I say. I’ll get him into trouble.”
Nimrat went on to describe her ex as studious, shy, and having great hair. She mentioned that he used to help her with Chemistry homework. This made Abhishek jokingly ask if she ever dated her teacher. Nimrat laughed and said, “No, he was just my classmate.”
When the interviewer asked why they broke up, Nimrat hinted that they might have taken things to the next level, saying, “Who said I didn’t take it to the next level?” Her response amused Abhishek, who reacted with, “Oh my God, good one.”
But one more time Bollywood Reporter say’s these are totally rumours created by mischievous people who intentionally giving importance to the rumours by giving an example of a wedding event, where people noticed that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan did not accompany the rest of the Bachchan family to attend the event, it was the wedding of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant, after which the rumours of their divorce were further fanned intentionally.
Till now, despite so much chatter about their marriage, both Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan have continued to stay mum.
Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan got married in April 2007. They are parents to a daughter – Aaradhya Bachchan, who was born in November 2011.
Every second family faces ups and downs but that doesn’t means divorce and Seperations in every case.

BANDAA SINGH CHAUDHARY’ REVIEW
BANDAA SINGH CHAUDHARY’ REVIEW
By
KOMAL NAHTA
Arbaaz Khan Production, Aks Movies & Entertainment, Cinekorn Entertainment and Seamless Productions LLP’s Bandaa Singh Chaudhary (UA) is set in the mid- and late-seventies and early eighties in Punjab. It is based on a lesser known true story.
Bandaa Singh Chaudhary (Arshad Warsi) and Lalli (Meher Vij) live in Punjab with their little daughter, Nemat (Kiara Khanna). While the village in which they live is inhabited by Sikhs, Bandaa Singh is the only Hindu alive in that village. In fact, wife Lalli is also a Sikh. In 1980, the ISI in Pakistan is trying to separate Punjab from India and towards this end, it is attempting to drive out all Hindus from Punjab. At first, Bandaa Singh resists but he leaves Punjab with his family when there’s death staring him in the face. Bandaa Singh’s bosom pal, Tajendra (Jeeveshu Ahluwalia), was murdered by the ISI because of his friendship with Bandaa.
After a few days, Bandaa Singh takes up for Tajendra’s sister, Meher (Alisha Chopra), when she is troubled by the ISI. Gradually, Tajendra’s widow (Shilpi Marwah) musters support for Bandaa Singh in the village. In the end, the Sikh villagers and Bandaa Singh kill the ISI’s men including Bagga (Shataf Figar).
Shaheen Iqbal and Abhishek Saxena have penned an ordinary story. It is not so wonderful or inspirational that the audience would stare in disbelief. Shaheen Iqbal’s screenplay keeps the audience engaged to an extent only, as the drama often gets predictable. Because it is clichéd, the drama doesn’t once evoke excitement that can make the viewers sit up and take note. Shaheen Iqbal’s dialogues are good.
Arshad Warsi acts well in the title role but it’s anybody’s guess that he can’t carry a film on his shoulders as he is now too old to be a hero. Meher Vij performs ably as Lalli. Jeeveshu Ahluwalia is good as Tajendra. Shilpi Marwah makes her mark as Tajendra’s wife. Alisha Chopra has her moments in the role of Tajendra’s sister, Meher. Kiara Khanna is alright as little Nemat. Sachin Negi is okay as Lalli’s brother, Harpal. Shataf Figar is quite good as Bagga. Garry Dhillon is so-so as Tajendra’s son, Kukki. Samuel John is average as Cheema. Jernail Singh provides routine support as police inspector Surjit Gill.
Abhishek Saxena’s direction is ordinary. Rahul Jain and Anand Bhaskar’s music is average. Lyrics (Kunaal Verma, Shaheen Iqbal and Jax 53) are so-so. Shabina Khan and Saurabh Prajapati’s choreography is okay. Background music (by Rooshin Dalal and Kaizad Gherda) is average. Simarjit Suman’s camerawork is appealing. Harpal Singh Pali’s action and stunt scenes are alright. Production designing (by Tariq Umar Khan and Nadiri Khan) is okay. Sanjay Sankla’s editing should’ve been sharper.
On the whole, Bandaa Singh Chaudhary will meet with a poor fate at the box-office.
Released on 25-10-’24 at Inox (daily 1 show) and other cinemas of Bombay thru AA Films. Publicity & opening: dull. …….Also released all over. Opening was weak everywhere.

SALMAN KHAN NEVER OFFERED MONEY TO SETTLE DOWN THE DISPUTES ASSOCIATED TO BISHNOIS
—Megastar Salman Khan Never Gave Blank Cheque to Bishnois For Hunting Allegations.
— Why Crime Branch Not Taking Lawrence Bishnoi On Remand In Connection Of The Recent Crimes Including Baba Siddique’s Assisination Case? It’s Quite Easy As Lawrence Bishnoi Is In Jail.
By
Tanveer Zaidi (Actor, Author, Educationist)
Lawrence Bishnoi, the gangster facing multiple charges including threatening one of the biggest superstars of the World and Indian Film Industry’s biggest superstar, Salman Khan
Lawrence Bishnoi is currently in Gujarat’s Sabarmati jail. He has been facing many allegations for committing many serious crimes.
Lawrence Bishnoi, 31, first captured national attention when he was linked with the killing of hip-hop icon, Punjabi rapper Sidhu Moose Wala, on May 29, 2022. Moose Wala was also a member of India’s opposition Congress party. Bishnoi’s associates claimed responsibility for the murder as part of an intergang rivalry.
India-Canada bilateral relations touched a historic low when both countries expelled six diplomats each, in tit-for-tat moves, after Ottawa doubled down on its accusation that the Indian government masterminded the 2023 murder of a prominent Sikh separatist leader.
While levelling serious conspiracy charges against India’s senior-most diplomats in Ottawa, Canadian officials dropped another bombshell allegation – linking the diplomatic mission with India’s most notorious crime syndicate boss, Lawrence Bishnoi.
In a deposition before a Canadian inquiry into foreign interference on Wednesday, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau claimed that Indian diplomats collected intelligence on “Canadians who are opponents or in disagreement with the Modi government”. This intelligence, he alleged, then made its way to “criminal organisations like the Lawrence Bishnoi gang to then result in violence against Canadians on the ground.”
India has denied such allegations and have seriously and strictly responded for fake speculations of the Canadian Government.
The topmost Superstar- Salman Khan reportedly received death threats from Lawrence Bishnoi and his gang on several occasions.
Megastar Salman Khan was allegedly accused of hunting a black buck – considered sacred by the Bishnoi community. But Salman Khan has denied the allegation and has said on multiple occasions that he didn’t kill any blackbuck as he love Deers.
Amidst the Police custody In an interaction with a TV channel, Lawrence Bishnoi said, “Salman Khan had disrespected the Bishnoi community by killing a blackbuck and we will kill him in Jodhpur, everybody will come to know when it will happen.” news agencies reported.
A new controversial statement is surfacing on social media platforms and other news mediums that Salman Khan offered money, earlier to the Bishnoi community to settle down ongoing issues.
Lawrence’s cousin Ramesh told a renowned Television Channel that Salman Khan offered money to the Bishnoi community earlier. Ramesh Bishnoi said, “His father, Salim Khan, said that the Lawrence gang is doing this for money. I want to remind him his son brought a cheque book in front of the community, saying fill in the figures and take it. If we were hungry for money, we would have taken it at that time,” he was quoted as saying.
But, the Megastar Salman Khan has never offered money or gave blank cheque to fill any amount whatsoever they want, to Ramesh Bishnoi or anyone else as he hasn’t committed any crime and case is in the hon’ble court of law that Salman Khan and his family respect and trust.

In a relief to actor Rhea Chakraborty and her family, the Supreme Court on Friday upheld the Bombay High Court’s decision to cancel CBI’s lookout circular issued against them following Sushant Singh Rajput’s death.
The Bench accused the CBI, state of Maharashtra and Bureau of Immigration for challenging the Bombay High Court’s decision just because the accused are from a high-profile background.
A bench of Justices BR Gavai and KV Viswanathan called the petition was “frivolous”. Justice Gavai said, “We are warning you. You are filing such a frivolous petition, only because one of the accused is a high-profile person. It will be dismissed with exemplary cost. Both persons have deep roots in society.
The CBI had in 2020 issued lookout circulars against Ms Chakraborty, her brother Showik Chakraborty, her father Lt. Colonel Indrajit Chakraborty and her mother Sandhya Chakraborty. This came after Sushant Singh Rajput’s family filed an FIR in Patna, seeking a probe into his death. Soon after, the case was transferred to the CBI.
The Bombay High Court had quashed the lookout circulars, citing the lack of reasons to issue the same. Further, the Bench had maintained that the actor and her family had roots in the society and had also cooperated with investigating agencies.In the same year, Rhea Chakraborty and her family were questioned in an alleged money laundering case linked to the Sushant Singh Rajput’s death. The Enforcement Directorate’s probe, focussed on her income, investments and professional deals, was initiated after Mr Rajput’s family alleged that she illegally transferred Rs 15 crore in tranches from his account and drove him to suicide.
Sushant Singh Rajput was a famous Indian actor known for his work in Hindi cinema. He was celebrated for his versatility and depth as an actor, and quickly established himself as one of Bollywood’s most promising stars.
Sushant singh Rajput’s role as Manav Deshmukh in the popular TV series Pavitra Rishta was a breakthrough for him. He won various television awards for his performance, including his first award for best actor in the Indian Television Academy Awards 2010.
Rajput’s critically acclaimed performances in films such as Kai Po Che!, M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story, and Chhichhore marked his transition to Bollywood.
Sushant Singh Rajput was a National Physics Olympiad winner and cleared as many as 11 engineering entrance exams. He was also an academically inclined student who excelled in both academics and extracurricular activities.

WHY SHOULD I APOLOGISE WHEN I HAVEN’T COMMITTED THE CRIME OF KILLING BLACKBUCK : SALMAN KHAN
WHY SHOULD I APOLOGISE WHEN I HAVEN’T COMMITTED THE CRIME OF KILLING BLACKBUCK : SALMAN KHAN
–Lawrence Bishnoi Gang recruit 60 shooters to target Megastar Salman Khan.
— When Lawrence Bishnoi is in Jail, why Police isn’t taking the gangster on remand to know his further plans and facts ?
By
Tanveer Zaidi (Actor, Author, Educationist)
Lawrence Bishnoi, a known gangster, has been threatening one of the biggest superstars of the world- Salman Khan for some time now. Although Megastar Salman Khan have Y+ security in addition to his personal security headed by his loyal Shera.
This conflict amid Salman Khan and Bishnoi community, dates back to a case from 1998 when Salman Khan was allegedly involved in the hunting of blackbucks (Deer), which are sacred animals to the Bishnoi community that Lawrence belongs to. Because of this history, Lawrence Bishnoi holds a deep grudge against Salman Khan.
Recently, reports have come out, from AajTak and other media platforms and News channels, indicating the Lawrence Bishnoi gang has made serious threats against Salman Khan even suggesting plans for an assassination. It is said that the gang has prepared 60 shooters to target the biggest Superstar of the Indian Film Industry-Salman Khan, which has raised major concerns about his safety, specially after the brutal killing of the Politician Baba Siddique. It’s being said that the scary incident of shooting Baba Siddique was planned and implemented by Lawrence Bishnoi, the two amongst the three contract killers were caught on the spot, but one Shiv Kumar Gautam was able to fled away.
There are few other goons caught by the crime branch in connection with the high profile murder.
According to AajTak and other news medium Baba Siddique was killed because he was a friend of Superstar Salman Khan, but nothing has been proved, reports are based on speculations and confessions done by the shooters Dharmraj and Gurmail Singh who are under custody.
Now with the reference of the Bishnoi community some news channels including AajTak have broadcasted that Bishnoi Community could forgive Salman Khan if he apologizes in their Temple for the alleged committed crime, but the case is under trial in the honorable Court Of Law and Salman Khan has denied hundred times, that he hasn’t killed blackbuck, so he is very clear about his stand, he once again have said, ” Why should I Apologise, when I haven’t committed the crime ?”
Lawrence Bishnoi was a five year child when blackbuck hunting case happened. Now, Lawrence is a 30 year old criminal.
After completing high school, Lawrence Bishnoi went to Chandigarh, the state’s capital, to study law. There, at DAV College, he stepped into student politics and allegedly ventured into the criminal world by locking horns with rival student groups.
Lawrence Bishnoi and his associates face several murder, extortion and terror-related charges. The NIA has said they want to unleash a wave of terror through targeted killings of well-known social and religious leaders, movie stars, singers and businessmen and renowned Politicians.
On Monday, Canadian police made a sensational claim.
They alleged at a press conference that agents of the Indian government were using “organised crime groups like the Bishnoi group” to target leaders of the pro-Khalistan movement, which calls for a separate Sikh homeland in India.
This was hours after both countries expelled top diplomats as tensions escalated over last year’s assassination of a Sikh separatist on Canadian soil. Delhi dismissed the allegations as “preposterous”, accusing PM Justin Trudeau of catering to Canada’s sizeable Sikh community for political gain.
The Canadian police were referring to Lawrence Bishnoi, a 31-year-old gangster from India, now back in the spotlight domestically and internationally.
Indian police say his gang is allegedly linked to the killing of a prominent politician Baba Siddique in Mumbai at the weekend – gunmen shot dead 66-year-old Baba Siddique near his son’s office. Three suspects are in custody. An alleged aide of Bishnoi has posted on social media that the gang is behind the murder.
Once among India’s most wanted, Lawrence Bishnoi has been in prison since 2015, now held far from his native Punjab state in Gujarat.
Yet, the police believe his audacious influence endures. Bishnoi is the prime accused in the sensational murder of Sidhu Moose Wala, the popular Punjabi singer gunned down near his village in October 2022.
In 2018, Bishnoi gained notoriety for threatening Bollywood star Salman Khan, accusing him of allegedly poaching two blackbuck antelopes – a revered species for Rajasthan’s Bishnoi community to which Lawrence belongs.
When he was produced in a court in Jodhpur city, he openly told the waiting media: “Salman Khan will be killed here, in Jodhpur… Then he will come to know about our real identity.” Incidentally, Siddique, the murdered politician, was a close friend of the Bollywood Megastar Salman Khan when he was produced in a court in Jodhpur city, he openly told the waiting media: “Salman Khan will be killed here, in Jodhpur… Then he will come to know about our real identity.” Incidentally, Siddique, the murdered politician, was a close friend of Salman Khan.
Deputy chief minister Devendra Fadnavis stated that police are following some definitive leads in the shocking murder of NCP (Ajit Pawar Faction) leader Baba Siddique, but he declined to confirm the involvement of the Lawrence Bishnoi gang.
Bollywood Reporter www.bollywoodreporters.com has published more than three times that Lawrence Bishnoi is is Jail then it’s easy for Crime branch/Police to take him on remand and interrogate him to know all the facts.

This year’s selection for Oscar marks a bold statement about the future of Indian cinema and its universal appeal

India is ready to stun the world once again, not only with its glamorous presence but also with its captivating storytelling at the 2025 Oscars. With Aamir Khan Productions Kiran Rao’s Laapataa Ladies featuring Ravi Kishan and others chosen as India’s official entry for Best International Feature Film, the global stage is about to witness a film that exemplifies the power of Indian cinema where tradition meets modernity, and women’s stories are told with gradation, strength and authenticity.
From the grand stages of Cannes and TIFF to the prestigious halls of the Oscars, India’s cinematic journey continues to break boundaries, capturing hearts across the globe. The selection of Laapataa Ladies stands out as a justified move that speaks volumes about the direction the Indian cinema will take in the future.
It signifies not just a bold statement but also a deeper narrative that India aims to convey to the world. The decision has stirred passionate discussions about the nature of Indian cinema, the evolving landscape of global filmmaking, and the art of storytelling that resonates universally. It signifies not just a bold statement but also a deeper narrative that India aims to convey to the world. One characterised by powerful storytelling and emotional depth, laced with cultural authenticity that delves into the unique yet universally relatable experiences of women.
Kiran Rao’s return to the director’s chair after more than a decade has proven to be nothing short of a cinematic triumph of her evolution as a filmmaker.
Laapataa Ladies’ offers more than a film, it’s an experience that beautifully blends humour and poignant social commentary and a fresh perspective on the complexities of Indian womanhood. Set against the backdrop of rural India, the story revolves around two brides mistakenly swapped due to their veils, igniting a whirlwind of confusion and identity crisis. But beneath the surface, the film tackles deeper societal themes, portraying the often unspoken struggles women face while navigating tradition and personal identity. Rao’s masterful storytelling elevates this from a simple narrative to a cultural dialogue, one that resonates with both Indian and global audiences. It’s this jugalbandi of emotion, drama, and humour that makes ‘Laapataa Ladies’ stand out as a universal story about women’s empowerment.
The film doesn’t just reflect the plight of Indian women, it taps into the global consciousness of gender roles, the subtle acts of defiance, and the resilience required to reclaim one’s identity in a patriarchal society. By sending ‘Laapataa Ladies’ to the Oscars, India is presenting the world with a film that balances entertainment with a serious undercurrent. This is the kind of storytelling that Hollywood needs to see an authentic narrative that reflects the socio-cultural realities of a nation while remaining universally relatable. With well-written characters, immersive performances, and a storyline that oscillates between lightheartedness and gravitas, ‘Laapataa Ladies’ will serve as a testament to Indian filmmaking talent. The performances of Nitanshi Goel by Pratibha Ranta shine, their portrayals brimming with vulnerability and strength, making their characters relatable on a universal scale. This film is not just a story about two women but about the entire spectrum of Indian womanhood—its beauty, complexity, and contradictions.
The landscape of global filmmaking is undergoing a revolution.
The world is slowly waking up to the storytelling brilliance that many nations like South Korea, China, Turkey and India have always possessed but are now showcasing with greater confidence and finesse. India’s selection of ‘Laapataa Ladies’ is part of this global wave of cinema that is redefining the narrative structure, giving voice to local stories with universal appeal. Much like South Korea’s Parasite, which used the backdrop of class disparity to tell a universally compelling story, ‘Laapataa Ladies’ uses rural India’s traditions to explore gender, identity and empowerment in a way that transcends cultural boundaries.As ‘Laapataa Ladies’ makes its way to the Oscars, it carries with it the hopes of millions who believe in the power of authentic storytelling.
The film’s emotional depth, paired with Rao’s visionary direction, is set to make waves on the international stage, showing Hollywood and the world what Indian cinema is truly capable of. With ‘Laapataa Ladies’, India has not just sent a film—it has sent a message.

In a historic performance on Wednesday, pace sensation Mohammed Shami etched his name in the annals of 50-over World Cup history, delivering the best-ever bowling figures by an Indian bowler in the tournament.
Shami’s extraordinary seven-wicket haul stole the limelight as India secured a convincing 70-run victory over New Zealand in the World Cup semifinal at Mumbai’s Wankhede Stadium.
After watching the semi final of the World Cup, media and people started pronouncing ” Shamifinal” instead of Semifinal.
Senior Journalist Sharad Rai said, ” Hats off to Mohammed Shami, he is a magician, he is a great cricketer.”
MayaPuri fame Journalist Sharad Rai further said, ” A Bio-Pic should be made on this sportsman, it will be a blockbuster because Shami’s life has been full of twists, it has all the ingredients of a superb film.”
Sharad Rai continued, ” Mohammed Shami was blamed for not playing good against Pakistan in the Previous World Cup, Team India lost the match against Pakistan, Hundreds of messages were left on Shami’s Instagram account saying he was a “traitor” and should be thrown out of the Indian team. Shami became the main target after the defeat in Dubai, even though the then India captain Virat Kohli acknowledged that his side had been “outplayed”.
We all felt Sorry for Mohammed Shami.”
The famous Journalist Sharad Rai continued, “In 2018, the fast bowler’s estranged wife, Hasin Jahan, accused him of multiple extramarital affairs and domestic abuse. Although Shami denied the charges, he had to face the wrath. He lost his central contract with team India as an FIR under several sections was registered against him.
Shami’s life has been like a rollercoaster ride, and that’s why I would like to suggest Filmmakers to make a Bio-Pic on Mohammed Shami, his life has all the ingredients of a good screenplay,and that Bio-Pic will be a salute to the great cricketer of our team India.”

Superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s third release of the year Dunki will reach to the theatres on this Christmas. The film, directed by Rajkumar Hirani, becomes the highly anticipated movie after the historical box-office success of Pathaan and Jawan.
King #shahrukhkhan’s previous two films both of which have earned in excess of Rs 1000 crore. Expectations from Dunki are high as a result. And if the word of one particular celeb from Bollywood is to be believed, the film is all set to live up to the expectations. Recently, actor Boman Irani revealed he has watched the film and shared his review, the first for Dunki.
Boman Irani is known for his words. Apart being an excellent actor he is also a voice artist & photographer. He has worked in some of the superhit hindi films, he is also known for doing commercial theatre plays. At the age of 41, he did his first film “Everybody says I’m fine”.
He made his film debut in 2003 with horror film Darna Mana Hai. In 2003, he had his first commercial success with comedy film Munna Bhai M.B.B.S.
Boman Irani is considered as one of the finest character actors of the Indian Film Industry and he very well knows what should be said, he is a man of words and his pronounced words are trustworthy.
Boman Irani recently attended the inauguration of the new complex of CINTAA in Mumbai. On the occasion, the actor spoke with the media about the new CINTAA House and his upcoming projects, one of which is Dunki. Talking about the film, Boman told reporters that he has watched the early draft of the film and that it ‘has turned out very well’. He also predicted that the film will complete a ‘hat-trick’ for Shah Rukh, implying that like Pathaan and Jawan, it will also break box office records.
Dunki marks the first collaboration between #RajkumarHirani and #Shahrukh.
The filmmaker has said that the film deals with the issue of illegal immigration with the title referring to a technique called Donkey Flight used by immigrants. The film, which also stars Taapsee Pannu, Dia Mirza, and Dharmendra, features Vicky Kaushal in a cameo appearance according to reports. Dunki is slated to be released in theatres around Christmas, clashing with Prasanth Neel’s Prabhas-starrer pan-India action thriller Salaar.
Shah Rukh Khan’s record-breaking year
Like Boman Irani, many are anticipating Dunki to be Shah Rukh’s third hit of the year. Before 2023, Shah Rukh had not had a release in lead role since 2018. His last clean hit as a hero was even further back. But 2023 has been his renaissance year. Pathaan, which released in January, broke domestic collection records, amassing Rs 543 crore in India and Rs 1050 crore worldwide. Jawan broke those records, amassing over Rs 600 crore in India and Rs 1150 crore worldwide.
AND TRADE EXPERTS HAVE ALREADY PREDICTED THAT DUNKI WILL COLLECT 11000+ CRORE.

One of the biggest Dance Choreographers of the Indian Film Industry, Ace dance director Vaibhavi Merchant has been entrusted with this responsibility for the third time with #Tiger3 for the song Leke Prabhu Ka Naam. She has choreographed the duo earlier in Ek Tha Tiger and Tiger Zinda Hai.
Talking about Katrina Kaif’s Zoya and Deepika Padukone’s Rubai – both Pakistani spies, #VaibhaviMerchant said, “The latter was a femme fatale dancing to entice Pathaan, Shah Rukh Khan. However, the Tiger 3 song is about a married couple celebrating their love.” Vaibhavi further said, “Since Besharam Rang was Deepika’s big dance number, they wanted to go all guns blazing.”
She further said, “There was no information about Rubai’s backstory. It was her intro song. So I just approached her as a femme fatale. She’s Bo Derek from James Bond. #deepikapadukone had also done a bunch of traditional roles, like Padmaavat. So when she came into Besharam Rang, she wanted to go all guns blazing. So I didn’t want to shoot it like a typical Hindi dance song. I wanted it to be languid like a chic fashion video. Something I did with Katrina Kaif in the Dhoom 3 title track.”
Tiger 3’s song Leke Prabhu Ka Naam was released recently. The track is a dance number featuring Megastar Salman Khan and gorgeous Karina Kaif, composed by Pritam and sung by Arijit Singh and #NikhitaGandhi. #BennyDayal and #anushamani have lent their voices to the Tamil and Telugu versions of the song,
Song and choreography, both are being praised, loved and lauded by the fans and followers.

Filmmaker Dharmesh Darshan refuted his uncle Mahesh Bhatt’s comments about being the illegitimate child of Nanabhai Bhatt, as it also implied that his mother, Sheila Bhatt, was illegitimate as well. In an interview, he said that his mother was a decade older than #MaheshBhatt and that the comments he made publicly about his parents possibly triggered her descent into Parkinson’s. Mahesh, his brother #mukeshbhatt and Sheila are the children of Nanabhai Bhatt and Shirin Mohammed Ali.
Asked about his uncle’s claims in an interview with Lehren Retro, #dharmeshdarshan said, “It’s rubbish… there’s very little truth to it. Every truth can be distorted. Mahesh mama is my saga mama (real uncle), and my mother was obsessed with him. In 1939, my grandmother and my grandfather got married. The Hindu Marriage Act came in 1959, and by then my mother also was married. I didn’t even know my grandmother’s name was Shirin until Mahesh mama said it was an issue.”

PAGALPAN NEXT LEVEL’ REVIEW | 27 October, 2023
‘PAGALPAN NEXT LEVEL’ REVIEW | 27 October, 2023
By
KOMAL NAHTA
Golden Glass Entertainment’s Pagalpan Next Level is the biopic of fitness expert Guru Mann, starring himself. Guru Mann was a man on a mission to revolutionise the fitness landscape of India with his ‘Mission India Fit’ campaign. From being a spirited trouble-maker in Amritsar to becoming a global fitness icon, Guru Mann has had a hair-raising journey.
Guru Mann and Amit have penned a story which is not very exciting or inspirational. The screenplay, written by Guru Mann and Aryeman Keshu, lacks the thrill which a biopic of this kind ought to have had. Besides, fitness may be important for people but it neither has the significance of money nor the thrill of fame in a person’s life and, therefore, the drama fails to have the desired impact on the audience. Also, Guru Mann’s contribution to fitness among people in India is not too well-known for the public to want to see his biopic. Dialogues lack punch.
Guru Mann does an average job as himself. Shazahn Padamsee is fair. Rituraj Singh impresses as Guru Mann’s father. Aarya Babbar lends ordinary support. Rakesh Bedi makes his presence felt. Suparna Marwah does well. Avtar Gill is adequate. Others pass muster.
Aryeman Keshu’s direction leaves something to be desired. Music (Daler Mehndi, Rahul Lakhanpal, Amar Vivaan and Sagar R.) is so-so. Lyrics ought to have been better. The background score should have been far more effective. Rupam Chetiapatra’s camerawork is okay. Action and stunt scenes (Vishal Bhargav and Yasin Shaikh) afford limited thrill. Sunil Musle’s art direction hardly deserves special mention. Shekhar Koditkar’s editing is loose.
On the whole, Pagalpan Next Level is a non-starter.
Released on 27-10-’23 at Glamour (daily 1 show) and other cinemas of Bombay thru Brandex Entertainment. Publicity & opening: poor. …….Also released all over.

This includes the fees charged by #Atlee, #nayanthara, #vijaysethupathi and other members of the cast.

The Economic Offences Wing of the Orissa police said on September 13 that it would question actor Govinda in connection with a Rs. 1,000 crore pan-India Ponzi scam probe. According to the EOW, Solar Techno Alliance (STA-Token) was illegally operating a pyramid-structured online Ponzi scheme under the garb of crypto investment. They collected deposits without authorisation from the Reserve Bank of India, to the tune of Rs. 1,000 crore from more than 2 lakh people across the country. Govinda had reportedly endorsed the company’s operations.
“For the time being, the actor is not a suspect or an accused,” EOW inspector general J.N. Pankaj said, adding, “His exact role in the case can be ascertained only after investigation. If we find that his role was limited to only endorsement of the product (STA-Token brand) as per their business agreement, then we will make him a witness in our case.”
The company reportedly collected Rs. 30 crore from 10,000 people in different parts of Orissa. It collected lakhs of rupees as deposits from investors in Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, Rajasthan, Haryana, Delhi, Jharkhand, Assam and Madhya Pradesh.
The EOW arrested the company’s country and Orissa heads, Gurtej Singh Sidhu and Nirod Das respectively on August 7. Bhubaneswar-based investment adviser Ratnakar Palai was held on August 16 for his links with Sidhu. Look out circulars were issued against company chief David Gez, a Hungarian national, and three Indian executives from Rajasthan, viz. Krishna Kumar, Anil Kumar and Bhoora Ramfor.

*AFTER THE INCREDIBLE SUCCESS OF THE ALBUM BASED ON RAMAYAN’S SUNDERKAND, FILM LYRICIST SUSHIL AGARWAL IS READY WITH HIS BOOK TITLED ‘SUNDERKAND’.
THE BOOK IS AN EASY ADAPTATION OF THE DIVINE SUNDERKAND FROM VALMIKI’ EPIC ‘RAMAYAN’ IN SANSKRIT AND TULSIDAS’ EPIC RAM CHARITRA MANAS IN AWADHI.
Bollywood Reporter – ” We have come to know that you are rendering Bhajans for the films as well?”
Sushil Agarwal -“Now the time of filming Bhajan for the Silver Screen has returned and I am being offered to write Bhajans for films.”
Bollywood Reporter – ” Would you like to say few words about your book ‘Sunderkand’ ?”
Sushil Agarwal – “I believe that my book with easy adaption of ‘Sunderkaand’ will be liked by people, the way my Album was praised by them.”
For those who didn’t know – Sundarkand is the fifth book in the Hindu epic Ramayana. The original Sundarkand is in Sanskrit, and was composed in popular tradition by Valmiki, who was the first to scripturally record the Ramayana. Sundarkand is the only chapter of the Ramayana in which the principal protagonist is not Lord Ram, but Hanuman jee. The work depicts the adventures of Hanuman jee and his selflessness, strength, and devotion to Lord Ram are emphasised in the text. Hanuman jee is believed to have been fondly called “Sundar” by his mother Anjana, and Sage Valmiki is stated to have chosen this name over others as the Sundarkand is about Hanuman’s journey to Lanka.
In the same way Sunderkand in Tulsidas’ Ram Charitra Manas is in Awadhi.
Disciple of Jagat Guru Shankaracharya Swaroopanand, Lyrcist Sushil Agrawal has got inspiration from Hanuman jee to do all his wonderful work which he has done in the past and the work which he will do in future as well.

वीडियो एलबम “सुंदरकांड” का सरल हिंदी भावार्थ लिखने वाले गीतकार सुशील अग्रवाल अब सरल हिंदी में पुस्तक लेकर आए हैं “सुंदरकांड”
*शरद राय
महाकवि तुलसीदास रचित रामायण का सबसे प्रिय और आध्यात्मिक भाव देने वाला कांड है सुंदर कांड। अवधी भाषा मे लिखे गए इस खण्ड काव्य को और सरल तथा सहज हिंदी भाषा में लिखकर उस पर कुछ समय लगा तो लोगों को और भी समझ मे आने लगा। लोगों को देशी अंदाज में गा कर मजा आने लगा। फिर मित्रों की सलाह पर मैंने इसका एलबम बनाया जो बहुत पसंद किया गया। अबतक विभिन्न भजन मंडलियों द्वारा सरल
सुंदरकांड के सैकड़ों आयोजन हो चुके हैं। अब उसी को हमने किताब रूप में पब्लिस करा दिया है।” इसके लिए गीतकार सुशील अग्रवाल को एक घटना क्रम में हनुमान जी से प्रेरणा मिली है, वे ऐसा मानते हैं। अंतर्लीन हो चुके जगत गुरु शंकराचार्य स्वरूपानंद के परम् शिष्य सुशील अग्रवाल को ऐसा करने की प्रेरणा और आशीर्वाद उनके गुरु से मिला था। वह कहते हैं- “सबकी इच्छा और श्रद्धा से ही ईश्वर कार्य होते हैं।”
गीतकार के रूप
में सुशील अग्रवाल ने भजन पक्ष को ही अपनी लेखनी का आधार बनाया और वह सैकड़ों भजन व गीत लिख चुके हैं। पेशे से आई टी व बैंकिंग कंसल्टेंट तथा वास्तु विधा के एक्सपर्ट वह स्वान्तः सुखाय के लिए गीत लिखते हैं। उनकी अगली रचना 200 दोहों की ‘अमरवाणी’ शीघ्र ही प्रकाशित होने वाली है। इसके अलावा वह सरल हिंदी में ‘श्री कृष्ण की जन्मकथा’ भी लिख चुके हैं।
वाला भजन है। निर्मात्री राजश्री वर्मा के एक एलबम के लिए वह दो गाने लिखे हैं जो आनेवाला है। अपने पिता स्व. छेदालाल कन्हैया लाल के लिखे राम भजनों का एक एलबम वह श्रद्धांजलि स्वरूप निकालने की तैयारी में हैं।इसकी गायिका-कम्पोजर हैं सीमा जायसवाल।
इनदिनों जब देश में आध्यत्मिक भावना का परचम लहरा रहा है, गीतकार सुशील वर्मा कहते हैं- “अब सिनेमा के पर्दे पर भजनों का दौर लौटने का समय आ गया है। मेरे पास गीत लिखने के प्रस्ताव आरहे हैं। मैं मानता हूं मेरी किताब सरल “सुंदरकांड” भी लोगों को वैसे ही पसंद आएगी जैसे एलबम आया है

Guys, do you remember Dear Zindagi?
it was a sweet film featuring the two incredible actors of the Indian Film Industry, Shahrukh Khan | SRK and Alia Bhatt.
Now once again the two great actors have collaborated together.
Talking about Dear Zindagi, the film Dear Zindagi was released in 2016, film was beautifully written and directed by Gauri Shinde. It was produced by Gauri Khan, Karan Johar, and Shinde under the banners of Red Chillies Entertainment, Dharma Productions, and Hope Productions respectively.
Alia Bhatt and Shah Rukh Khan contributed with their best performances, both the actors handled their roles wonderfully by being very natural.
The story focussed on a budding cinematographer who is discontented with her life and meets a free-spirited psychologist who helps her to gain a new perspective on her life.
Shah Rukh Khan and Alia Bhatt, the dynamic duo from the 2016 hit Dear Zindagi, have once again graced our screens in a vibrant commercial for a fabric brand. This time around, Shah Rukh rocks a suave black suit, diving into an action-packed sequence that channels his ‘Don’. As he takes on a gang of goons, Shah Rukh doesn’t just beat them up – he also sternly warns them not to mess up his treasured sofa covers. The commercial, masterfully directed by Vasan Bala of ‘Monica O My Darling’ fame, effortlessly captures Shah Rukh’s charisma and action prowess.
The video kicks off with SRK getting ready for a bash, only to be greeted by a bunch of martial arts fighters crashing the party. Undeterred, he dishes out playful admonitions, like “Hey, don’t ruin the sofa, “Hey, no jumping on the sofa with shoes, and “Hey, no stomping on the sofa with shoes. Amidst the thrilling combat, Shah Rukh even tries to apologize to his opponents. Enter Alia Bhatt, who curiously asks him about his antics. With a smile, Shah Rukh replies, “protecting these beauties,” referring to his precious sofa covers. Alia playfully intervenes, asserting, “These beauties don’t need protection.” She humorously assures Shah Rukh that she can easily tackle any stains on the sofa.
The endorsement looks quite interesting, it’s going to catch eyeballs within no time.

Ghadar UNPRECEDENTED
UNPRECEDENTED SECOND WEEKEND FOR ‘GADAR 2’
By
KOMAL NAHTA
The record-breaking spree of Gadar 2 continued through the second weekend. The film remained so strong on all the three days of the second weekend that its net collections have created a new benchmark which may be difficult to surpass.
After collecting an astounding Rs. 284.63 crore in the first week, the Sunny Deol’s Gadar Ek Prem Katha sequel started its second weekend with a take of Rs. 20.50 crore which is a new record as no film in the past has recorded this kind of a collection figure on the second Friday. The film also crossed the Rs. 300-crore threshold on the eighth day as its total for 8 days went up to Rs. 305.13 crore. Collections on Saturday sky-rocketed to Rs. 31.07 crore, and further to Rs. 38.90 crore on Sunday. Needless to add, the collections of both, the second Saturday and the second Sunday, are records just like the figure for the second Friday was. In this way, the film’s second weekend closed at a record-breaking Rs. 90.47 crore. The total for 10 days, therefore, stood at Rs. 375.10 crore. It is anybody’s guess that the film will outshine K.G.F. Chapter 2 (dubbed) at the start of the third weekend itself.
The only two films still ahead of it after the third weekend would be Bahubali 2: The Conclusion (dubbed) (Rs. 510 crore) and Pathaan (Rs. 540 crore).

ShashiTharoor reminiscing Sahir Ludhyanvi on his birth anniversary

It is said in his Politics, man becomes “political animal” instead of being humane.
Although, man has always been a social creature with the power of speech and moral reasoning. Hence it is evident that the state is a creation of nature, and that man is by nature a political animal.
Many of us believe that a Political leader is a Selfish Political Animal and opportunist as well.
The word ‘Animal’ isn’t mentioned here in a positive sense, probably, and isn’t to praise a politician, unarguably ?
But here is a Politician who has presented an example of ‘being humane’ and not a mere Selfish Politicial Animal.

By

Paramount Pictures Skydance Media and TC Productions’ Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One (dubbed from the Hollywood film of the same name; UA) is a spy action film. IMF agent Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) is assigned the task of retrieving half of a key from his ally, Ilsa Faust (Rebecca Ferguson). He loses the half key to professional burglar Grace (Hayley Atwell). His friends, Luther Stickell (Ving Rhames) and Benji Dunn (Simon Pegg) are guiding him in his mission which is to not only get hold of the full key but to also destroy the Entity, an experimental AI which major powers are out to gain control over. To gain control of the Entity, both halves of the key are required. Community agents and Gabriel (Esai Morales), an Entity liaison officer, are also after the key. Grace gives the half-key to arms dealer Alanna Mitsopolis (Vanessa Kirby) in Venice. Through this, Ethan hopes to find the buyer of the complete key and the purpose it is going to be used for. By a turn of events, Grace collaborates with Ethan. They decide to board the Innsbruck-bound train where Alanna is supposed to meet the buyer. Gabriel is also on the train, with subordinate Paris (Pom Klementieff). Besides, former IMF director Eugene Kittridge (Henry Czerny) and Director of National Intelligence Denlinger (Cary Elwes) are also on the same train. Who will get the key and how?
masala film with plenty of twists and turns, friendships and betrayals, drama and action. The first half has one very lengthy action sequence which seems to be never-ending but the second half moves at a very fast pace and, therefore, keeps the audience engrossed. Although the climax, like the rest of the film, lacks novelty, it, nevertheless, has a lot of thrill and excitement for the viewers.
..
Tom Cruise once again shines as Ethan Hunt. He is outstanding and endears himself to the audience so much that the cinema halls resound with rounds of applause every time he does the impossible. Hayley Atwell is first-rate in the role of Grace. She makes her character believable. Ving Rhames and Simon Pegg lend marvellous support as Luther Stickell and Benji Dunn. Rebecca Ferguson makes her mark as Ilsa Faust. Vanessa Kirby leaves a fantastic impression in the role of Alanna Alanna Mitsopolis. Esai Morales is impressive as Gabriel. Henry Czerny is adequate as Eugene Kittridge. Pom Klementieff has her moments as Paris. Cary Elwes is adequate as Denlinger. Shea Whigham (as Jasper Briggs) is natural. Greg Tarzan Davis (as Jasper Briggs’ partner, Degas) is alright. Frederick Schmidt (as Alanna’s brother, Zola Mitsopolis), Charles Parnell, Rob Delaney, Indira Varma and Mark Gatiss (all four as heads of the Community), Mariela Garriga (as Marie), and the others lend fine support.
Christopher McQuarrie’s direction is appealing. He plays to the gallery with a fast-paced action thriller. Lorne Balfe’s background music is phenomenal. Fraser Taggart’s cinematography is fantastic. Stunts and action scenes are simply breathtaking. Gary Freeman’s production designing is of a high standard. Special effects and visual effects are outstanding. Eddie Hamilton’s editing is sharp. Dubbing is fantastic.
On the whole, Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One is a hit. It may have started a bit slow but its collections will grow as the positive word of mouth spreads.
Released on 12-7-’23 at Metro Inox (daily 2 shows), Maratha Mandir (daily 3 shows) and other cinemas of Bombay thru Viacom18 Motion Pictures. Publicity: very good. Opening: fair. …….Also released all over. Opening was good in the national multiplex chains but ordinary elsewhere. The original English version has also released simultaneously. It is expected to fare better than the dubbed Hindi version.

I WAS DISTRESSED WHEN I SAW KANGANA’S INTERVIEW AGAINST JAVED AKHTAR: NAHTA TELLS COURT
I WAS DISTRESSED WHEN I SAW KANGANA’S INTERVIEW AGAINST JAVED AKHTAR: NAHTA TELLS COURT | 10 July, 2023
By
SHARAD RAI
Film trade analyst and your editor, Komal Nahta, told the Andheri metropolitan magistrate court today (July 10) that he felt shocked and distressed when he saw Kangana Ranaut’s interview to Republic TV on 19th July, 2020, wherein she alleged that writer and lyricist Javed Akhtar had threatened her in 2016. In the said interview given by the actress in the aftermath of Sushant Singh Rajput’s suicide in June 2020, she alleged that Akhtar had asked her to apologise to Rakesh Roshan and Hrithik Roshan as otherwise they were powerful enough to send her to jail where she would be forced to commit suicide. There was an ongoing feud between Hrithik Roshan and Kangana then.
Standing as a witness in the defamation case filed by Javed Akhtar, Nahta told the court, “I could not believe that Javed Akhtar could talk in such a fashion to any woman, least of all to a well-known actress like Kangana Ranaut.” Admitting that his family and friends were aware of his friendship with Javed Akhtar as he had interviewed him on several occasions and had also met him countless times at film functions, Komal Nahta added that he was even more distressed when his friends and family members taunted him for befriending “such a man” who spoke so derogatorily to women.
On being asked by Akhtar’s lawyer, Jay Bharadwaj, whether he had then spoken to the writer-lyricist, Nahta replied in the affirmative. “I was so shocked and felt so humiliated when my family and friends ridiculed me for associating with “people like Javed Akhtar” that I picked up the phone and spoke to Javed saab. I asked him how he could speak to any woman the way he had allegedly done. Javed saab told me, he had not spoken like that to Kangana, that she had lied in the interview.” The examination of Nahta proceeded with Bharadwaj asking him if he was satisfied by Akhtar’s clarification. Nahta replied, “After speaking with Javed saab, I was convinced that he had not said what was alleged. Even otherwise, in my entire career so far, I have never known Javed saab to speak rudely or derogatorily to anybody. What’s more, even if Javed Akhtar wants to show his displeasure, his comments are invariably laced with humour. The fact that there was no humour in Javed Akhtar’s alleged comments convinced me that they weren’t his statements.”
Nahta further told the court that he made it a point to tell his friends (who had taunted him) about his conversation with Javed saab, but while some were convinced that Javed Akhtar had been made a scapegoat, there were other friends who did not believe Nahta. “I am close enough to Javed Akhtar to pick up the phone and seek a clarification, and I’ve known him since many years to understand his clarification,” Nahta concluded, “but I doubt whether the world must be convinced. And before how many people can Javed Akhtar clarify that the statements attributed to him were not made by him?”
Nahta will be cross-examined by Kangana’s lawyer on July 24.

WHAT WAS CBFC DOING WHILE CERTIFYING ‘ADIPURUSH’?”: ALLAHABAD HC
By

The Lucknow bench of the Allahabad high court on June 26 chided the Central Board of Film Certification for clearing the controversial Adipurush in the form it did. It wondered what the CBFC was doing and asked if the Board did not understand its responsibilities. Adding that cinema was a reflection of society, the bench wondered aloud what the certifying authority wanted to teach the future generation.
It may be mentioned here that the film has come in for heavy criticism from all quarters for its inaccurate portrayal of the mythological characters, costumes and dialogues mouthed by the characters.
The court was also critical of the film’s producers and asked them to spare religious epics like the Ramayan and the Geeta. The court expressed its disapproval of the absence from court, of the producers, director and others named as defendants in the case. The application was filed by advocate Kuldip Tiwari who told the court that he first realised that the controversial film had objectionable content when its teaser was released on 2nd October, 2022.
The CBFC is yet to file its reply. The court will hear the case today (June 27).

Veteran actress Saira Banu last week gave her consent to the quashing of a criminal cheating case lodged by her against a builder in 2022 over a 2010 agreement for developing a prime plot at 16, Pali Hill, Bandra (West), Bombay alongwith a bungalow on it. The plot and bungalow belonged to her husband, late thespian Dilip Kumar.
The Bombay high court bench of Justices N.W. Sampre and S.U. Deshmukh on June 13 considered the amicable settlement between the parties and quashed the 2021 FIR registered against Prajita Developers Pvt. Ltd. and builders Altaf Wahedna and Arshad Wahedna at the Bandra (Bombay) police station. Saira Banu is the power of attorney holder of Dilip Kumar.
The FIR was based on non-performance of the development agreement assigned by Dilip Kumar to Prajita Developers. The dispute gave rise to multiple court proceedings and finally led to the filing of arbitration proceedings last year as it was a civil dispute. The builder filed a quashing petition this year.
The builder and the veteran actress had tendered consent terms before the HC in the arbitration petition. The dispute was disposed of in March, based on the consent terms.

Screening of all Hindi films has been banned in Kathmandu, the capital city of Nepal, from today (June 19) over the “objectionable” words and depiction of Sita in the mythological film Adipurush. The announcement was made by a top city official on June 18.
Kathmandu mayor Balendra Shah said that the screening of Adipurush without having one of its dialogues deleted will cause “irreparable damage”. He added, “Screening of all Hindi films will be barred within Kathmandu metropolitan city from Monday (June 19), as the objectionable words in the dialogue of Adipurush have not yet been removed. We already issued notice three days ago to remove the objectionable portion of the dialogue that Sita is India’s daughter, within three days.” Allowing the screening of the film without the change, according to Balendra Shah, would help “establish a distorted fact”.

Raju Shrestha aka Master Raju on dubbing through the app loaded with artificial intelligence and dubbing by the actors….
It’s a worth reading article
Unfortunately the next generation of actors will not be able to enjoy the thrill we experienced, standing alone in a dark room and improving our own voice. An art called dubbing.
Ai has entered our lives in a big way. But can Ai dub like an actor ??? While AI can generate realistic-sounding voices, dubbing involves more than just matching the tone and pitch of a voice. It requires conveying emotions, nuances, and cultural context accurately, which often involves a deep understanding of the language and culture being translated.
Artists bring their unique skills, training, and experience to deliver performances that go beyond mere translation. They understand the subtleties of timing, lip-syncing, and adapting dialogue to fit the context of a scene and enhance the characters they portray.
However, it’s essential to note that AI technology is advancing rapidly, and it’s possible that in the future, AI systems could become more sophisticated and capable of replicating the skills and nuances of dubbing artists.
Let’s wait and watch !

Globally famous actor Priyanka Chopra made a comment on Bollywood groupism.
Priyanka Chopra said, ” Groupism was the reason I moved to Hollywood.”
She was also looking for a way out of Bollywood. Priyanka added, ” I was being pushed into a corner in the Film Industry- Bollywood. I had people not casting me, I had beef with people, I am not good at playing that game so I kind of was tired of the politics and I said I needed a break.”
Priyanka Chopra put allegations on the Indian Film Industry aka Bollywood, few months ago.
Now it’s actress Taapsee Pannu who has accepted the allegations of groupism in Bollywood she said, ” I admit that Bollywood camps do exist, it’s been there since forever, it depends on an actor’s friend circle, certain agency or group that they are a part of and people’s loyalties differ based on that.
However, I doesn’t hold any grudges against the industry or blames anyone for being biased towards outsiders. Everyone should have the right to choose whosoever they want to work with, or have in their films as they are investing their hard earned money and they have rights to select whom they trust more.”
Rightly said Taapsee, it’s all up to the choice, as they might trust someone else.”

Guys, you won’t believe that Alia Bhatt has struggled alot to reach the place where she is today.
Alia Bhatt has visited offices for auditions and she never used her father’s name and never requested her father to ping filmmakers. Yes, she is a born artist, an amazingly talented lady gifted by God, the Almighty.
Her acting skills might be hereditary, as she is the daughter of a legendary Filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt and extremely talented Soni Razdan, but you can’t deny the fact that she has worked hard to groom herself to become one of the finest actors of the Indian Film Industry.
But in this write-up I will be telling you about her struggle of a different kind.
Actress Alia Bhatt evolved in problems during her visit to Seoul and it was her mismanaged packing to be blamed and she ultimately struggled to manage her mismanagement.
The actress, on Wednesday, shared a new vlog on her YouTube channel to take fans through her make-up process for the Gucci event in Seoul last month.
The recipient of the best actor, female Filmfare award this year travelled to South Korea last month to participate in the Gucci Cruise 2024 event. She joined many South Korean stars including K-pop singer and actress IU.
Guys, In the new vlog, Alia revealed she did her own hair and make-up for the event. However, during the process, she faced multiple problems after she realised she forgot a number of products that would have helped her look perfect for the night. Nevertheless, she managed to put together a simple yet fresh look for the night.
Throughout the process, Alia also appeared to be struggling with a cold.

Sunil Grover is one of the finest actors of the television Industry, unarguably, and none can deny that Kapil Sharma is also one of the finest Hosts of the country. When it comes upto Comedy, quite often he is called the King of comedy.
Kapil sharma and Sunil Grover enjoy a huge fan following, and their followers are often heard discussing the dispute amongst them. But none knew the reason behind Sunil Grover leaving the number one show of the small screen.
Kapil Sharma claimed that he tried alot to solve the issues and bring back Sunil to strengthen his team likewise it used to be.
Kapil Sharma has left no stone unturned to bring back Sunil on his show.
The comedy King Kapil Sharma once appeared on Arbaaz Khan’s talk show Pinch and talked about the dispute with Sunil. Since then, the two actors have shared several nasty posts to attack each other.
During the show, Arbaaz brought Kapil Sharma’s attention to a particular tweet by Sunil Grover. When Kapil asked what was the tweet? Arbaaz said, “ Sunil wrote that since one year I have kept my mouth shut but now I have opened up.” Arbaaz Khan claimed that Kapil did not reply to the tweet, he continued, “He wrote that Kidney are two in numbers but Liver is one in one’s body, Take good care of yourself.”
Sunil Grover probably wanted to warn Kapil for his alcohol addiction.
Kapil Sharma told Arbaaz that he didn’t deny that he wasn’t well those days and took help of medicines, but the sickness was for a short time, I might have misbehaved with my colleagues but later I apologised, I did nothing wrong deliberately.”
Some portion of the interview was edited before it’s streaming.
Whatever happened amid the two fantabulous performers, wasn’t good for the show.

Titli kahe main chali aakash… VETERAN SINGER SHARDA PASSES
Titli kahe main chali aakash…
VETERAN SINGER SHARDA PASSES AWAY
By
KOMAL NAHTA
Veteran singer Sharda, whose super-hit song, Titli udi, is popular even today, more than 55 years after it was rendered by her, passed away today (14th June) in Bombay due to age-related illnesses. She was 85.
Sharda Rajan Iyengar, who was in her prime in the 1960s and 1970s, may not have been a threat to the Mangeshkar sisters when they ruled the music world but she managed to stand her own and make a comfortable place for herself even then, which itself was creditable. Among the songs she lent her voice to (either solo or with other singers) were Dekho mera dil machal gaya from Suraj, Aa aayega kaun yahan and Jaan-e-chaman shola badan from Gumnaam, Bakkamma Bakkamma from Shatranj, Baat zara hai aapas ki from Jahan Pyar Miley, Leja leja leja mera dil from An Evening In Paris, Chale jaana zara thehro and Duniya ki sair kar lo from Around The World, Woh pari kahan se laaoon from Pehchan,
Jab bhi yeh dil udaas hota hai from Seema, and Tum pyar se dekho from Sapno Ka Saudagar. She had released her own album, Andaaz-E-Bayan Aur, featuring her own compositions based on Mirza Ghalib’s ghazals. She also scored the music for films like Garibi Hatao (1973), Kshitij (1974), Maa Bahen Aur Biwi (1974), Mandir Masjid (1977), Tu Meri Main Tera (1980) and Maila Aanchal (1981). For Garam Khoon, she penned the lyrics for a song (Ek chehra jo dil ke kareeb) which had music composed by Shankar. That song was rendered by Lata Mangeshkar and picturised on Sulakshana Pandit. Besides Hindi, Sharda had also lent her voice to Telugu, Marathi and Gujarati songs.
Sharda’s maiden film song, Titli udi ud jo chali from Suraj, was tied with Mohd. Rafi’s Baharon phool barsao (also from Suraj) for the Filmfare Award for 1966 when there was only one award for best playback singer rather than two separate awards for male and female playback singers. Although the award went to Mohd. Rafi, Sharda created history because it was after this episode that Filmfare started two categories — male and female — for the best playback singing award. She went on to be nominated four times thereafter by Filmfare, and winning two awards. She sang for almost all films in which Shankar Jaikishan were the music directors including Kaanch Ki Deewar (1986). In fact, Shankar promoted her a lot. She lent her voice to many top heroines of her time.
Early in her career, she was offered a voice test by none other than Raj Kapoor when he heard her singing at Shrichand Ahuja’s home in Tehran. She was the first Indian female singer to record her own pop album with Sizzlers. It was released in 1971 by HMV.

A criminal Public Interest Litigation (PIL) has been filed in the Bombay High Court seeking to make Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan accused for allegedly giving a bribe to save his son Aryan Khan. The PIL is scheduled to be heard on June 20.
The plea states the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) filed an FIR against the then former Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) Mumbai zonal director Sameer Wankhede for allegedly negotiating through KP Gosavi with Shahrukh Khan | SRK and settling a bribe amount from Rs 25 crore to Rs 18 crore and then accepting Rs 50 lakh in cash in a deal to save his son Aryan Khan. It seeks the use of Narco analysis and lie detector tests to bring out the truth.
We have full faith in hon’ble Court Of Law.
But, when everything is transparent in the Cruise drugs case.
….And Aryan Khan was given clean chit as nothing was seized from Aryan, since then jealous scraps are trying their level best to defame Father and Son……
……And now it’s clear that their intension is to defame Shah Rukh Khan and Aryan Khan.
But they must understand that if they will not stop defaming Aryan Khan and Shah Rukh Khan then it’s obvious SRK fans might bring them in the Hon’ble Court of law with the help of Defaming act.
And they will have to pay crores for falsely defaming innocent Shah Rukh Khan and Aryan Khan.

Media made headlines that Yash will play the character of Raavan in film Ramayan to be helmed by Nitesh Tiwari
According to unconfirmed sources Yash’s team strongly advised against accepting the role. They expressed concerns that his fans might not appreciate seeing their beloved actor play a negative character, even one as formidable as Raavan.
They believed that such a portrayal could potentially impact his fanbase’s perception and loyalty.
The actor himself has been mindful of his fans’ sentiments in the past. In an earlier interaction, Yash acknowledged the emotional nature of his fanbase and their tendency to overreact when he deviates from their expectations.
Yash’s decision to decline the role of Raavan highlights his commitment to his fans and their unwavering support.
While it might have been a missed opportunity to showcase his versatility as an actor,
Yash’s loyalty to his fanbase remains paramount. His fans can rest assured that their idol is considerate of their feelings and will continue to make choices that resonate with their expectations.
Although reports of Yash accepting offer to portray Raavan earlier wasn’t taken seriously by people, they regected the news as fake.
Still all the news being published by media looks like rumours,
Even there is no confirmation from Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt doing Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayan.
People are not taking Nitesh Tiwari seriously because it has been more than three years since the Project was announced, after getting so much hype the film didn’t go for filming and people thought it has been shelved.
Now people will believe only then when Nitesh Tiwari will start filming Ramayan, till then all the news looks fake.

We very well remember, that was at the launch party of ‘Party With Devil’ when Megastar Salman Khan was asked to pose by the paps at a certain spot with requests, regards and respect and the Megastar refused to do so, that later converted into a conflict between Salman Khan and a group of Photo Journalists.
Salman Khan was later banned by a certain section of the photographers. He later reacted to the entire controversy at the press conference of Kick in presence of director Sajid Nadiadwala and Jacqueline Fernandez.
Salman Khan said, ” if people in groups are coming very close to me by pushing their colleagues to capture photographs then it’s the duty of my security person to secure and safe guard me and as they didn’t know the intentions behind their coming so closer to me and shouting ‘Salman Salman’, that’s not the fault of my security men, it’s their job, then you say to ban me, Ok you are welcome to ban me, then again If I give a pose like this (he kissed Jacqueline Fernandez sitting beside) then you won’t be able to stop your camera to click, but then it will not be good for both of us, we should understand each other and follow manners and etiquette of our Profession.”

In many viral photographs, two people are seen usually Orha Awatramani aka Orry, and Vedant Mahajan, whome she is rumoured to be dating.
Let me tell those who didn’t knew that prior to this, rumours were that Orha Awatramani aka Orry and Nysa were sharing a special relationship but that proved to be a rumour and now Nysa is being spotted with Vedant Mahajan, so now people have started speculating about their closeness as GF & BF.
But let me clarify that Nysa Devgan is a girl who likes to hangout with her friends and it doesn’t means that she has chosen her boyfriend.
Truth behind the buzz is that Nysa is single without any hangover of a boyfriend.
….And that’s true and rest all are rumours planted by few crazy minds and chattering tongues.
We all know that Nysa is the daughter of the two amazingly talented actors of the Indian Film Industry ie Superstars Ajay Devgn and Kajol, so it’s obvious that people are desperate to watch Nysa acting in films.
About her career into the Film Industry Ajay Devgn earlier told Journalists i “She is just a teenager, She hasn’t told Kajol or me what her final career choice would be. As of now, she is studying overseas. If she decides to pursue a career in the film industry, it will be her choice.”

Actor Tanveer Zaidi reacted on his allegations with his harsh words….
Bollywood responsible for religious conversions’ said an
IAS officer
Niyaz Khan,
Actor Tanveer Zaidi reacted on his allegations with his harsh words….
By
SHARAD RAI
“Our nation is democratic , here all religions are equal. How can we say that one should convert. After marriage Both people should follow their own religions. If there is so much love and it is their compulsion, then both should follow their respective religions, I think conversion is not appropriate,” the officer said.
“Bollywood is tarnishing the culture of our country and negatively influencing the children,” Khan told news agency ANI.
An IAS officer of Madhya Pradesh Cadre, Niyaz Khan on Thursday said that Bollywood is responsible for conversions and it all started from there.
Actor Tanveer Zaidi reacted on the Allegations, he said, ” Is Bollywood only responsible for all the sickness and not any other industry? Not even the Porn English and non-hindi stuffs that people watch openly or many times under their quilt?” Film and Television actor Tanveer Zaidi further said, “Ok, let’s agree for awhile that cinema plays an essential part in shaping the perceptions of the public. Let’s also agree for a while that Bollywood is responsible for conditioning the minds of the citizens of India, and let me say ‘Yes’ for awhile that actors are responsible for changing the mindset of 140 crore people of the country, then tell me how many of them have become Shree Ram, Laxman and Seeta after watching Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayan?
And kindly tell me how many among us have become Shree Krishna, Arjun, Duryodhana, Dronacharya and Bheeshma after watching B.R Chopra’s Mahabharat ? Please tell me how many of us became Hanuman after watching Sanjay Khan’s Jai Hanuman?
How many have become Patriotic after watching Shah Rukh Khan’s Swadesh and became like Salman Khan after watching Bajrangi Bhaijaan and Amitabh Bachchan after watching his Bemisaal? There are endless examples of good roles portrayed in thousands of films made by our Indian Film Industry aka Bollywood, if people could learn bad from our films and shows then why don’t they learn good from Bollywood?”
Tanveer Zaidi continued, “I disagree and have serious objections against the baseless allegations of Niyaz Khan, I.A.S Officer.
Nowadays It has become a trend to blame Bollywood for every filth in the society.
Although conversion and embracing other religion is a topic of debate.”
Tanveer Zaidi took a pause and then he said, ” Friends and relatives are free to advise them to continue with their respective faith even post marriage, they should send the person to the counselor for councelling sessions but nobody has rights to force them.”
I asked, ” What’s your opinion about the conversion?”
Tanveer Zaidi said, ” I am against forced or bribed conversion but at the same time if one is spiritually inspired by some other religion and want to convert, then what’s wrong in it?”
Tanveer Zaidi further said, ” I favour freedom of choice likewise I favour Freedom of speech, why to worry about unforced and conversion without any bribe?
And I have already said that I am fully against forced and bribed conversion.”
“What’s your take on Honour Killings?” I ask,
Tanveer Zaidi replied, ” Same as our constitution has said, Honour Killing is a crime, that’s all.”

BLOODY DADDY
‘BLOODY DADDY’
By
KOMAL NAHTA
Jio Studios, AAZ Films, Offside Entertainment and The Vermillion World’s Bloody Daddy is a thriller about drugs, drug dealers and Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) officers.
Sumair (Shahid Kapoor) and his assistant, Jaggi (Zeeshan Quadri), are NCB officers who confiscate a bag full of drugs while it is being taken in a car. The consignment belongs to Sikander Chowdhary (Ronit Bose Roy) who, therefore, kidnaps Sumair’s son, Atharv (Sartaaj Kakkar), so that he can force Sumair to return him the drugs. Sikander, in turn, has to hand over the drugs to Hameed (Sanjay Kapoor) from whom he has accepted payment in advance. Sameer (Rajeev Khandelwal) and Aditi (Diana Penty) are also NCB officers who are involved in the same drugs case. It may be pointed out here that Sumair, Jaggi and Sameer have their won reasons for not wanting to return the bag of drugs. But, of course, Sumair has the bigger task of getting son Atharv freed from the clutches of Sikander.
The film is based on French film Nuit Blanche. Ali Abbas Zafar and Aditya Basu have written a fast-paced, taut story and screenplay about the predicament of a father whose son has been kidnapped because he has in his possession the drugs consignment belonging to a drugs dealer. The drama engages the viewers right from the word ‘go’ and keeps them involved all through because of the many turns and twists. The tricks adopted by Sumair, the game of oneupmanship between Sumair and Sameer, the motives of the various NCB officers, and the modus operandi adopted by Sumair to ensure the safe release of his son from the captivity of Sikander Chowdhary are all so exciting and interesting that the audience get sucked into the world created by the two writers.
A good part of the drama happens in just one hotel (owned by Sikander) but if, in spite of this, monotony does not set in, it is due to the fast pace of the drama, which does not give the viewers even a minute to think. The background music is another reason for boredom not creeping in but about that, later. Dialogues, written by Ali Abbas Zafar and Aditya Basu, with additional dialogues by Siddharth-Garima, are excellent.
Shahid Kapoor is extraordinary in the role of Sumair. He plays the NCB officer and the father of Atharv so wonderfully that one can’t help but shower praises on him. In not a single scene is Shahid found lacking or going overboard. Although the film abounds in action, Shahid Kapoor does not look out of place even one bit despite not having an action image. Rajeev Khandelwal gives his cent per cent to the character of Sameer. He is lovely and does the fullest justice to his character. Ronit Roy Bose does a fantastic job as Sikander Chowdhary. He is so understated that it is a delight to watch him. Diana Penty is quite good as Aditi. Sanjay Kapoor makes his mark as Hameed. Zeeshan Quadri is fabulous as Jaggi. He is so natural that watching him perform.
watching him perform becomes a delightful experience, so much so that the audience miss his presence in a good part of the latter half of the film. He mouths four-letter words with such flourish that it looks very real. Sartaaj Kakkar is natural and endearing in the role of Atharv. Vivan Bathena (as Danny), Ankur Bhatia (as Vicky) and Mukesh Bhatt (as Hameed’s assistant) make their presence felt. Suparna Moitra is truly natural and she makes a fine impression in the role of Sumair’s ex-wife. Sachin Verma looks handsome and is restrained in a brief role as Suparna’s new partner, Akash. Vikram Mehra (as Bunty), Anant Manger (as Lokendra (Thapa)), Dawa (as Nepali Amar), Badshah (as himself) and the rest of the actors provide very good support.
narration keeps the audience engaged and entertained throughout the drama. Music (Badshah and Aditya Dev, Julius Packiam and Anuj Garg) is fair and ought to have been better. Lyrics (Badshah, GD47, Harsimran Singh and Dinesh Pant) are okay. Bosco-Caesar’s choreography is alright. Julius Packiam’s background music is extraordinary and is like another hero of the film. It heightens the impact of the drama manifold. Marcin Lashawiec’s cinematography is first-rate. Action and stunt scenes (choreographed by Craig Macrae, Parvez Shaikh and Lee Whittaker) are very well composed and they look realistic. Production designing by Rajnish Hedao, Snigdha Basu and Sumit Basu (Acropolis)) is of a fine standard. Steven Bernard’s editing is super-sharp.
On the whole, Bloody Daddy is a well-made entertainer. Its presentation, performances and background score are its major plus points.
Released on 9-6-’23 on JioCinema.

COURT REFUSES TO CANCEL BAIL OF BHARTI SINGH, HUSBAND
By
KOMAL NAHTA
Observing that it was the prosecution’s fault and there was no illegality committed by the magistrate in passing the bail order, a special NDPS court recently refused to cancel the bail granted to comedienne Bharti Singh and her husband, Harsh Limbachiya, almost three years after they were released from jail in a drugs case. The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) had moved the special NDPS court in 2020, seeking cancellation as a magistrate’s court granted them the relief after neither the NCB nor the public prosecutor representing the investigating agency appeared before the court to make submissions on the bail pleas.
The special NDPS court pointed out that when the matter was posted a day after the bail plea was filed in the magistrate’s court, the NCB neither filed reply on bail applications nor filed any application for adjournment, seeking time to file reply. “The investigating officer and special public prosecutor failed to appear before the court. Therefore, it is fault of prosecution,” said the court. It added, “There are no allegations of committal of breach of conditions of bail order granted by… magistrate. Therefore, there are absolutely no grounds made out for cancellation of bail to the respondents… The application is devoid of merits and is liable to be rejected.”
In November 2020, the NCB allegedly recovered 86.5 grams of marijuana from Bharti and Harsh’s home and office and they were taken into custody. In October 2022, the NCB submitted chargesheet in which it cited statement of accused-turned-approver Sowmiyanarayanan, a musician.

No actor could replace Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan in Bollywood-
No actor could replace Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan in Bollywood-
Said Shahid Kapoor
By
RUBY ZAIDI
Bollywood’s two iconic stars, Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan, contemplate retirement. And while it’s Pathaan and Tiger happening, it becomes clear to see that the conversation is not about retiring from their spy roles as Pathaan and Tiger, but handing over the reins of the Hindi cinema to someone from the younger acting lot.
Just see Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan is said to be not a good earner in comparison to other Salman Khan starrers, still then that film has managed to collect nearly two hundred crore, it’s much more than a Akshay Kumar, Ranbir Kapoor, Ranveer Singh starrer so called super hit movies.
This is purely Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan’s magic as their not so good movies earns two hundred crore, this is the real star power.
However, the duo eventually decides to continue carrying the responsibility because “desh ka sawal hai.” Just like their characters of The blockbuster Pathaan, a majority of people including big Journalists and trade analysts have said that Salman and SRK are irreplaceable.
One of the finest stars of the Indian Film Industry Shahid Kapoor have stated the same version recently to a Journalist. Bollywood’s celebrated star Shahid Kapoor who recalled watching the classic scene from Pathaan on the big screen, and echoed a similar sentiment. “They can’t be replaced,” Shahid said.
One of the best actors of the our Bollywood Shahid Kapoor believes that it will not only very difficult but nearly impossible for the actors from younger generation to achieve that kind of stardom which Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan enjoy, according to him, ” Today’s stars are more exposed due to social media and the audience has many more options for entertainment other than just watching films in theatres and also I believe the work done by these two icons are incredible and that couldn’t be recreated.”
Shahid Kapoor further said,
“The actors of this generation will have to find themselves,” he said, before confidently adding, “They will find an audience. I respect the actors of this generation. Some of them have done phenomenal work, but to reach the level of Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan is impossible.”
Rightly said Shahid Kapoor as there will be no Superstars like Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan, they are living legends.

MUMBAIKAR’ REVIEW
‘MUMBAIKAR’ REVIEW | 2 June, 2023
By
KOMAL NAHTA
HR Pictures, Jio Studios and Riya Shibu Production’s Mumbaikar (UA) is the story about an aspiring police inspector, his uncle who is already a police inspector, and a kidnapping attempt gone wrong.
Sangram (Sachin Khedekar) is a police inspector in Bombay. His nephew (Vikrant Massey) also wants to join the police force. The nephew has a girlfriend, Ishita (Tanya Maniktala).
Mannu (Vijay Sethupathi) comes to Bombay from a village. He wants to become an underworld don. He joins don Shakeel’s gang. Shakeel asks Mannu to kidnap businessman Jhunjhunwala’s son but Mannu, by mistake, kidnaps underworld don Prabal Patil’s (Ranvir Shorey) son, Rahul. What happens thereafter?
The film is a remake of Tamil film Maanagaram. Amit Joshi and Aradhana Sah have penned a story (based on Lokesh Kanagaraj’s original story) which just can’t manage to sustain the audience’s interest. The screenplay, written by Amit Joshi, Aradhana Sah and Himanshu Singh, is weak, and it would appeal only to a thin section of the elite audience. Not only is the structure of the screenplay problematic but even the drama itself is irritating, at least for the masses. Climax is as weak as the rest of the drama. Amit Joshi and Himanshu Singh’s dialogues are okay.
Vikrant Massey is alright. Hridhu Haroon is average. Vijay Sethupathi impresses in the role of Mannu. Tanya Maniktala is okay as Ishita. Ranvir Shorey lends fair support as underworld don Prabal Patil. Sachin Khedekar makes his presence amply felt as police inspector Sangram. Brijendra Kala leaves a mark as the hawaldar. Sanjay Mishra has been wasted as a driver. Others are passable.
Santosh Sivan’s direction, limited as it is by the poor script, is dull. His camerawork is splendid. Music (Yugprasad Bhusal, Ramdas V.S. and Joshua Ninan Oommen) is below the mark. Lyrics (Yugprasad Bhusal, Himanshu Singh and Joshua Ninan Oommen) are hardly any better than the music. Salil Amrute’s background music is terribly weak. Sham Kaushal’s action and stunt scenes are okay. Krishna Thakur’s art direction is barely passable. Dilip Damodar’s editing leaves plenty to be desired.
On the whole, Mumbaikar is meant for a very few among the class audience. For the rest, it is an apology of a film.
Released on 2-6-’23 on JioCinema.

ZARA HAT KE ZARA BACH KE’ REVIEW
ZARA HAT KE ZARA BACH KE’ REVIEW | 2 June, 2023
By
KOMAL NAHTA
Jio Studios and Maddock Films’ Zara Hat Ke Zara Bach Ke (UA) is the story of a married couple in the middle-class bracket. Kapil Dubey (Vicky Kaushal) and Saumya Chawla Dubey (Sara Ali Khan) are married. Kapil is a miser while Saumya doesn’t think twice before spending money. The couple stays with Kapil’s parents (Akash Khurana and Anubha Fatehpuria). Kapil’s maternal uncle (Neeraj Sood) and aunt (Kanupriya Shankar Pandit) have been staying with them since a few months. Saumya wants to shift into a new house with hubby but they can’t afford a new house with their modest means. So, they plan to apply under the government’s housing scheme which provides for affordable houses. However, since Kapil does not qualify under that scheme, they are advised by a tout, Bhagwandas Ishwardas Sahay (Inaam-ul-haq), to buy the flat in Saumya’s name but it’s not as simple as it sounds. For this, Kapil and Saumya have to prove something. They do so without taking their families into confidence.
All hell breaks lose when the two families get to know of what Kapil and Saumya have done but they are still unaware of their plan to buy a flat. Whether Kapil and Saumya get the flat under the government’s cheap housing scheme or not would come later but the amount of difficulties, hardships and embarrassment the two families have to face is something nobody is prepared for. What happens then?
Ramiz Ilham Khan has written a story which is quite novel but several parts of the story as well as of his screenplay appear a bit contrived and convoluted at times. The drama is so round and about that the impact is diluted to an extent. While not all the comedy makes the viewers laugh, some scenes do tickle the funny bone a lot. The lesson which Kapil and Saumya learn in the end is quite convoluted as the situation and the incident which change their perspective are not very similar to the situation in which they are. Besides, the situation in which Kapil and Saumya have landed themselves in is because of their ego problems rather than because they want to buy a flat. Also, Kapil and Saumya’s noble action in the end doesn’t touch the heart if only because it looks too far-fetched. A drama of this kind ought to have made the audience weep but that doesn’t happen. In other words, it is more the comedy which works, that too in parts, while the emotional side is found lacking. The analogy between the situation of Kapil-Saumya and that of Kapil’s maternal uncle and aunt is not convincing, making the climax appear less strong. Ramiz Ilham Khan’s dialogues are far better than his story and screenplay.
Vicky Kaushal does a very good job in the role of Kapil Dubey. He shines in comic as well as dramatic and melodramatic scenes. Sara Ali Khan tends to go overboard in the initial scenes but comes into her own later. She is especially good in dramatic and emotional scenes. Inaam-ul-haq is excellent as Bhagwandas Ishwardas Sahay. Himanshu Kohli is outstanding in the role of advocate Manoj Baghel. He makes the courtroom scenes hilarious. Sharib Hashmi (in a special appearance) is effective as guard Daroga but the last scene in which he interacts with Kapil and Saumya looks like a forced attempt to get him into the main story. Akash Khurana and Anubha Fatehpuria lend fair support as Kapil’s parents but they don’t have anything significant to do. Neeraj Sood makes a lovely mark as Kapil’s maternal uncle.
Kanupriya Shankar Pandit shines as Kapil’s maternal aunt. Vivan Shah is lovely as Kapil’s cousin. Rakesh Bedi leaves a fine mark as Saumya’s father. Sushmita Mukherjee lends average support as Saumya’s mother. Srishti Ganguli Rindani is alright as Mehjabeen. Dimpy Mishra makes his presence felt as Dimpy Sir. Atul Tiwari is entertaining in the role of the judge. Others are adequate.
Laxman Utekar’s direction is nice but his narration does have its limitations mainly because of the script. Sachin-Jigar’s music comprises a hit song (‘Tu hai to mujhe phir aur kya chahiye’) and two extremely melodious numbers viz. ‘Tere vaaste’ and ‘Saanjha’. Amitabh Bhattacharya’s lyrics are weighty. Song picturisations (Ganesh Acharya, Vijay Ganguly and Ruel Dausan Varindani) ought to have been far better. Sandeep Shirodkar’s background music is good at places. Raghav Ramadoss’ cinematography is nice. Production designing (Amit Ray and Subrata Chakraborty) and art direction (Dilip Ganpati Rokade and Nilesh Vishwakarma) are of a fine standard. Manish Pradhan’s editing is quite sharp.
On the whole, Zara Hat Ke Zara Bach Ke is a fair entertainer with hit music being its biggest asset. It will, therefore, do reasonable business at the ticket windows. Frankly, considering the revenues due from sale of digital, satellite and audio rights, the film is already in the zone where the risk is minimal.
Released on 2-6-’23 at Inox (daily 8 shows) and other cinemas of Bombay thru PEN Marudhar Cine Entertainment. Publicity: quite good. Opening: okay. …….Also released all over. Opening was average at most of the places.

What ails the distribution and exhibition sectors?
Kumar Mangal, Lucknow
– The arm-twisting tactics adopted by many of the top distributors and multiplex chains of the country. Sometimes, all-India distributors arm-twist owners and controllers, mostly of the single-screen cinemas. At other times, the national multiplex chains are unfair in allotting shows because they are in a commanding position. Invariably, it is the small and medium distributors in the distribution sector, and the single-screen cinemas and non-national multiplex chains in the exhibition sector, which are at the receiving end. On what basis do programmers allot shows to new films?
– Oftentimes, the allotment is not on scientific basis. Very often, it is on the basis of hunch. But let me tell you, most of the times, the allocation of shows is not the best or the most impartial.
Why do most films not have good music nowadays?
Rajeev Kumar, New Delhi
– The music scene deteriorated mainly because of the tendency of some leading producers to include remixed versions of old Hindi films’ hit songs in new films. Hit songs can be counted on fingertips nowadays. Incidentally, the Phir aur kya chahiye song of this week’s release, ZARA HAT KE ZARA BACH KE, is a hit.

CBI BOOKS BUNTY WALIA IN BANK FRAUD CASE, WALIA DENIES CHARGES
CBI BOOKS BUNTY WALIA IN BANK FRAUD CASE, WALIA DENIES CHARGES | 29 May, 2023
By
KOMAL NAHTA
The CBI has registered a case against film producer and events organiser Bunty Walia alias Jaspreet Singh Walia, his brother, Guneet Singh Walia, their production house, G.S. Entertainment Pvt. Ltd., its CA and others, in an alleged bank fraud which is estimated to have caused IDBI a loss of Rs. 15 crore. The CBI last week carried out searches at the premises of GSEPL, its directors (the Walia brothers), and CA Stany Saldanha. The bank has alleged that GSEPL was sanctioned a foreign currency loan of US $2.35 million (Rs. 10 crore) and a term loan of Rs. 4.95 crore in June 2008 on personal guarantees of Walia and others under the film financing scheme for his Lamhaa, starring Sanjay Dutt. The film was to have been released in 2009 but got delayed. The account was declared a non-performing asset on September 30, 2009.
Subsequently, the IDBI appointed PVR as the sole distributor for the worldwide release of the film subject to the execution of a suitable tripartite agreement on June 2, 2010 between GSEPL, PVR and IDBI. As per the agreement, PVR was to spend Rs. 8 crore on the film’s promotion and post-production expenses. However, PVR allegedly failed to honour its part of the commitment as its revenues from the film totalled Rs. 7.41 crore as against the expenditure of Rs. 8.25 crore.
A forensic audit report revealed that GSEPL had submitted a “fraudulent utilisation certificate”, diverted the bank’s funds and fudged the account books. The IDBI then accused GSEPL of cheating, falsification of records, misappropriation of public money,
misrepresentation and criminal breach of trust, which resulted in the loan being declared fraudulent. The CBI has named Bunty Walia, GSEPL and others under Indian Penal Code sections related to criminal conspiracy, cheating and forgery as well as provisions of the Prevention of Corruption Act.
Bunty Walia has denied the allegations of cheating etc. According to him, they had suffered a loss in the film and despite sharing all the details, the bank officials kept on asking him to “settle the issue”. He added that there was a collusion between a bank official and their appointed auditor to declare him as wilful defaulter, so that they could approach the CBI. Added Walia, “The auditor gave a fabricated report against me.”

One of the finest actors of the Indian Film Industry Anil Kapoor has enjoyed Superstardom at it’s peak. He was considered as the next Superstar after Amitabh Bachchan. Anil Kapoor has acted in some of the iconic films of the Indian Film Industry.
Anil Kapoor, known for his various incredible performances in super hit films is one of the most celebrated actors, from comedy to tragedy, from action to romance…. he has done all kinds of genres an actor could dream of … He not only opted to do those characters also, he performed them to the level of Perfection. Anil Kapoor is also known for his passion for the craft, he has captivated audiences for decades with his stellar performances in Bollywood. However, the great actor has recently embarked on an amazing journey with the Hindi adaptation of the English web series The Night Manager. In an exclusive conversation with a news portal the versatile actor Anil Kapoor recalled his TV series 24. He revealed that a couple of actors were considered for 24 before he nodded for it, and the list included Kapil Sharma and Jaideep Ahlawat, among others.
While asking about his process of preparing for the negative role in The Night Manager, it was mentioned that he had already delivered a successful adaptation, that is 24. As he confessed that the mention of the Colors TV series has taken him into “kind of a nostalgia.” He asserted, “We were going through the (list of) actors which we had shortlisted for 24.”
Anil Kapoor further added, “I was quite surprised to see there were so many actors, who are today doing so well. Kapil Sharma was one of the people who was considered for 24. There was Jaideep Ahlawat. I was seeing his pictures. I was seeing Pankaj Tripathi’s pictures.”
“I also met Ratna ji (Ratna Pathak Shah) and I said even I auditioned for it. We have all come a long way,” Kapoor said. He added that during that time, concepts such as the writer’s room or seasons were not familiar, as the digital revolution had not yet captured the country. Anil Kapoor remarked, “At least I can say, in India, we were ahead of the curve.”
During the interview, Anil Kapoor was asked if a show like 24 would have been more successful if it were released today, considering the popularity of experimental content. However, the actor declined the idea, and said, “Whether people accept it or not, they do have tremendous regard for the show. 24 also gave the industry so many technicians. They have all made a name for themselves. It was kind of a job… (pool) for the industry.”
If a list of hundred iconic actors ever .. will be made Anil Kapoor will definitely feature in it and that too unarguably.

There were many other guesses and speculations as well.

After the release, the movie was even banned in some Indian states. However, the project, performed well at the box office.
In between all the arguments, debates, media trials, controversies the film recieved open support by few Politicians.
Many celebrities presented their opinions regarding the film. Now the Vetran Superstar Kamal Haasan has reacted to the controversy surrounding The Kerala Story.
While talking to the media Kamal Haasan shared his take on the matter, he openly said, ” We are creative people in the Film Industry, we should avoid propoganda, I am strictly against this newly developed culture amongst the Filmmakers to gain publicity by making propoganda films and this discriminates citizens.

Another controversial Film BOMBAY to release shortly
by
SHARAD RAI
A Film Titled Bombay is complete and it has been submitted for it’s Censor Board Certification.
In the Tinsel Town there are buzz regarding the title of the film, it is being said, that Bombay is now Mumbai so it’s not appropriate to title a film Bombay.
The Film Bombay, before it’s release has started making headlines.
Film Bombay is Produced and written by Firdaus Sheikh and Directed by Sanjay Niranjan.
Producer Firdaus Sheikh and Director Sanjay Niranjan gave the example of the old film Bombay helmed by Maniratnam, some 28 years ago.
They said that Bombay-1995 was also released after Bombay becoming Mumbai, then there wasn’t any controversy regarding the title, that film was controversial because of it’s Hindu, Muslim love angle.
The 1995 released Bombay, starring Arvind Swami, Manisha Koirala, Sonali Bendre and others was a blockbuster. It was a story of a Muslim woman and a Hindu man fall in love and elope to get married as their families object to their relationship.
However, when they move to Bombay, they end up facing the wrath of communal riots.
Bombay helmed by Maniratnam was a beautiful film, originally made in Tamil and dubbed in Hindi.

‘8 A.M. METRO’ REVIEW
‘8 A.M. METRO’ REVIEW
By
KOMAL NAHTA
Studio 99’s 8 A.M. Metro is the story of the friendship between a married man and a married woman.
Iravati (Saiyami Kher) is married to Umesh (Umesh Kamat) and they have two little children. Iravati has to travel to another city to be by her hospitalised sister’s side. Iravati’s sister, Riya (Nimisha Nair), is due to deliver her first baby and there have been pregnancy complications because of which she has had to be hospitalised.
Iravati meets Pritam (Gulshan Devaiah) in the 8 a.m. metro train she travels daily from home to the hospital. Pritam and she start spending time together. Iravati gets a shock when Riya reveals something to her just a couple of days before her delivery. Iravati gets another shock when she visits Pritam’s house.
What are the two shocks?
Raj R. has written a mature story but it is also quite convenient. The screenplay, written by Raj R., Shruti Bhatnagar, Lakshmi Priyanka, Vijay and Priyanka Nidumolu, Pul Parmar, Safi Quadri and Maitri Shekar, is long-drawn and sometimes contrived too. Why Riya reveals what she reveals, so late in the day is not explained.
Similarly, since the exact nature of friendship between Pritam and Iravati is not underlined, Riya’s constant warnings to Iravati seem a bit contrived, more so because Iravati never clarifies. After all, what would it take Iravati to clear the air about the nature of her relationship? It remains a mystery why Iravati can’t come clean on the point. Agreed, she may be feeling awkward but frankly, the awkwardness ought to have been addressed — at least from the audience’s viewpoint. The twist when Iravati goes to Pritam’s house is a bit unsettling, no doubt. Raj R., Peddinti Ashok Kumar, Anuradha Umarji and Asad Hussain’s dialogues are nice.
Gulshan Devaiah is natural to the core in a difficult role. As Pritam, he gives a good account of himself. He shakes the viewer in the breakdown scene in the crematorium. Saiyami Kher is quite good as Iravati. Umesh Kamat lends lovely support as Umesh. Nimisha Nair is very nice in the role of Riya. Kalpika Ganesh provides fair support as Mridula. Dheer Charan Srivastav is so-so as Iqbal. Rajeev Aneja (as the writer), P. Mahendra (as Ramesh), Moin Jaan (as Iravati’s father), Madhu Swaminath (as Iravati’s maternal aunt), Mayanand Thakar (as Pritam’s publisher), Khushi (as little Iravati), Aahil (as Pritam’s son), Lasya (as Pritam’s daughter), Shivansh (as Iravati’s son), Khushi (as Iravati’s daughter) and the others are okay.
direction is fairly nice. Mark K. Robin’s music is of a good standard. Lyrics (Kausar Munir, Manoj Kumar Jullori and Shahbaaz Khan) are nice. Gulzar’s poetry is rich. Satya’s choreography is functional. Background music ought to have been more impactful. Sunny Kurrapati’s cinematography, with additional cinematography by Sada Sabbati, and aerial cinematography by Njstej, is good. Suresh Bheemagani’s art direction and Laxman Aelay’s production designing are alright. Anil Aalayam’s editing is loose and could’ve been sharper.
On the whole, 8 A.M. Metro has some shock value but that’s such a small part of the otherwise long-drawn film that its box-office chances are very bleak.
Released on 19-5-’23 at Metro Inox (daily 1 show) and other cinemas of Bombay thru Platoon Distribution. Publicity & opening: poor. …….Also released all over.

KATHAL
‘KATHAL’ REVIEW
By
KOMAL NAHTA
Balaji Telefilms and Sikhya Entertainment’s Kathal is the story of a young police officer who is assigned a bizarre case to solve.
Mahima Basor (Sanya Malhotra) is a young police inspector whose senior (Gurpal Singh) assigns her a weird case for investigation. Local MLA Pateria (Vijay Raaz) complains to the police about two jackfruits missing from the tree in his garden. Mahima is asked to investigate the case and book the thieves. In the process, Mahima chances upon another far more serious case — of the gardener’s daughter going missing. Pretending to solve the case of the missing jackfruits, Mahima actually investigates the case of the missing girl. She realises that many girls have gone missing in the past too, in her village, but no action has ever been taken and the mysteries, therefore, remain unresolved.
Ashok Mishra and Yashowardhan Mishra have written a story and screenplay, which keep the audience engaged. At first, the frivolity of the jackfruits case keeps the viewers entertained but once the case of the missing girl surfaces, it becomes entertainment of a different kind. Of course, the comedy of the earlier part is replaced by a more serious drama later, but there is a dash of comedy even in the investigations of the case of the missing girl. Yes, it does seem a bit stretched after a point of time but the two writers intelligently keep introducing new characters every 5-10 minutes to keep the audience’s interest alive. The duo’s dialogues are very beautifully written, adding a great deal to the fun quotient.
Sanya Malhotra shines in the role of police inspector Mahima Basor with a sincere performance. Anantvijay Joshi is fair as constable Saurabh. Vijay Raaz does an extraordinary job as MLA Pateria. Rajpal Yadav is pretty entertaining as the over-zealous TV reporter, Anuj. Neha Saraf lends excellent support as Kunti. Gurpal Singh makes his presence amply felt as SP Angrez Singh Randhawa. Govind Pandey is first-rate as Mishraji. Brijendra Kala is alright as Srivastava. Aeklavya Tomer is nice as Veer Singh. Satish Sharma leaves a fine mark as DSP Sharma. Dhirendra Tiwari has his moments as Sanjay. Namrata Dhamija makes her presence felt as Bindeshwari. Megha Shukla is natural in the role of Pinky. Ashutosh Dwivedi (as Pathak of Karehra police station) is lovely. Deepak Soni is realistic as Brahmadutt Pandey. Ravi Jhankal creates a nice impression as Chandulal. Ambrish Saxena is good in the role of gardener Birwa. Apoorva Chaturvedi is okay as Amiya. Apratim Mishra leaves a fine impression as Rinku paanwala. Ranjan Raj shines as Bhoora. Lucky Khan is good as Balbir Bundela of Chhatarpur police station. Shashi Ranjan (as constable Pahad Singh), Aradhana Paraste (as the sweeper), Vikram Singh (as journalist Pankaj), Vijay Kumar (as Narottam Verma), Shashie Verma (as Nek Singh), Shivani Kahar (as Supul), Sunil Uppal (as Maharaj), Shantanu Pandey (as Lallu), Sanjay Dadich (as Sunil Parihar), Piyush Mandhan (as Nanha), Tapsi Nagraj (as the lady in Anuj’s village home), Ajay Pal (as Saale sahab), Hari Narayan (as Magan), Shiv Katariya (as Jagan), Ashwani Mishra (as Chhagan), Vivek Namdev (as Naveen), Raghubir Yadav (as Gulab Seth), and the others lend nice support.
Yashowardhan Mishra’s direction is very good. He has remained true to the drama and narrated it in an entertaining way. He has also created the village atmosphere very realistically. Ram Sampath’s music and Ashok Mishra’s lyrics are in synch with the requirements of the drama. Harshvir Oberoi’s camerawork is alright. Mohd. Amin Khatib’s action and stunt scenes are okay. Production designing (by Pronita Sushant Pal and Naidita Singh) is of a fine standard. Prerna Saigal’s editing is sharp.
On the whole, Kathal is a fair entertainer. Performances of the actors, dialogues, village ambience and the simplicity of narration are its biggest plus points.
Released on 19-5-’23 on Netflix.

Aryan Khan case officer owns Rolex watch, 4 flats at Rs 22L yearly income: NCB
The reports mentioned that there was another dubious transaction where four watches were sold by Wankhede to one, Viral Ranjan for Rs 7,40,000.
By
RUBY ZAIDI
Narcotics Control Bureau deputy director general Gyaneshwar Singh has mentioned in his report on the Aryan Khan drug case that the annual income of Sameer Wankhede, the former Mumbai Zone Director of NCB, and his wife is around Rs 22.75 lakh, but he owns four flats, plots and expensive watches.
It has been mentioned in the report that the price of one of the watches is Rs 22 lakh which is surprising.
Foreign visits undertaken by former NCB officer Sameer Wankhede, booked by the CBI over an alleged Rs 25-crore bribe demand from superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s family to spare his son, Aryan Khan, in a drugs case, is under the scanner of the agency, officials said.
Cordila drugs case has become one of the most talked about cases, as it hits the media headlines every now and then.
Former NCB officer has lost his job and is nowhere now.
It should be mentioned here that the controversial officer Sameer Wankhede on Friday moved to Bombay high court in the alleged 25 crore extortion case regarding the arrest of Shah Rukh Khan’s son Aryan Khan in 2021. In his appeal, Wankhede said the CBI action against him is an act of revenge.
An urgent hearing at 2.30pm was allowed. On Thursday, the former NCB Mumbai zone chief skipped the CBI summons after he was granted protection from arrest by the Delhi high court till May 22.
The Delhi high court on May 17 granted Wankhede the liberty to approach the Bombay high court for further relief. In the Delhi high court, he also sought a cross-FIR against NCB deputy director-general Gyaneshwar Singh.

The Gorgeous Taapsee Pannu is continuously making headlines as she is acting in Dunki opposite Superstar Shah Rukh Khan, but this time she has grabbed the media headlines not because of Dunki, this time reason for staying in news is different. Taapsee Pannu was recently talking about ‘larger-than-life’ heroes when she mentioned Shahrukh Khan | SRK, Hrithik Roshan and Salman Khan. She referred to Shah Rukh, her co-star in the film, Dunki as Sir, but continued referring to the other two superstars by their first names.
When interrupted by the interviewer that she does not address Megastar Salman as Sir, Taapsee, playfully, replied, “ Will say, haven’t I said ?” Then, she said, “Salman Sir. Sorry Salman Khan fans.” She added that fans of Salman khan King of Bollywood would now go ahead and troll her.
And that is exactly what happened. Fans of the Megastar Salman Khan have posted the video on the star’s fan page and some fun comments have inundated the video in the comments section. Lucky for Taapsee that these were all playful trolls.
That’s the trick to grab the media headlines and once again Taapsee successfully got the attention of the media and Salman Khan fans and followers.
Quite a smart move by the actress as she knew the trick.. but be careful Taapsee Pannu, as sometimes these tricks backfires and Salman Khan is a man known for his humour and switch of his moods, as well, so don’t you take a risk that might backfire.

Hrithik Roshan and Saif Ali Khan have performed their characters in Vikram Vedha wonderfully…
Vikram Vedha is getting overwhelming response on the OTT Platform

Superstars Hrithik Roshan and Saif Ali Khan are Incredible actors, they have proved this through their previous films many times. Vikram Vedha has given them a chance to prove their worth once again and it’s not required to say that they have performed to the next level.
They looked ultimate in their characters.
With their wonderful performances they made us feel as the characters were tailored for them but that’s not true as the film is a remake and in the original version the characters were played by the Southern Indian actors, Madhavan as Vikram and
Vijay Sethupathi as Vedha.
Revealing the process of portraying Vedha in Vikram Vedha, Hrithik Roshan shares to the media , “It was a terrific platform for me to set myself free. You rarely get a chance where you can just get lost in the fun of the moment. Vedha was such a character wherein you could let him loose, you could let him do whatever he wants to do. I have been skeptical of playing such characters in my life, because I don’t think I was evolved enough to play someone with such composure. But when I was offered Vedha I thought I could do justice to this now because I’ve lived enough life to understand Vedha’s mind.”
Yep, Hrithik Roshan you have done full justice to Vedha and in the same way Saif Ali Khan is also being equally praised for his amazing acting while playing the character of Vikram.
Saif Ali Khan said, “I am more than happy to be an important part of the movie Vikram Vedha. When I was offered the film I was sure that I will definitely do justice to Vikram.”
Saif Ali Khan is also being appreciated and lauded.
Saif further said, ” Now, with good response I feel that the decision of doing the film was good. I will treasure these reviews, it’s my biggest achievement.”
Bollywood Reporter/www.bollywoodreporters.com asked, ” Tell, if you would have liked to play Hrithik’s role Vedha ?” Saif Ali Khan said, “It’s a great role. And when somebody does it as wonderfully as Hrithik then you can’t imagine anyone else.”
Overall both the actors have given their best in Vikram Vedha and they are being appreciated and praised as on OTT platform film is getting overwhelming response.

Now that Fast X has released this week, will it adversely affect the box-office collections of The Kerala Story?
Sony Dhanraj, Mumbai
– A running film, that too a super-hit, does not get adversely affected by a new release, however big. Since the third week of the blockbuster THE KERALA STORY commences today, collections are bound to come down, but to blame the decline on the new big Hollywood release, FAST X, would not be right.
Is controversy the surest formula for a film’s success?
Surjeet Mehta, Chandigarh
– Not at all! If you are referring to the stupendous success of THE KERALA STORY, perish the thought that it is breaking records only because it is a controversial film. There are countless examples of films failing at the box-office in spite of major controversies surrounding them before release. Controversies help the box-office of a film only if its content is entertaining.
Will Rajkumar Hirani’s Dunki hit the screens on Christmas this year? For, if it does, there will be a gap of just three-and-a-half months between Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan and Dunki.
Rekha Khan, Mumbai
– DUNKI is almost complete and will be comfortably ready for release in the Christmas week this year. JAWAN is slated to hit the screens on 7th September. A gap of three-and-a-half months between the release of the two SRK starrers is good enough, don’t you think so?

Be careful guys, as you can’t publish, share or broadcast stuffs related to Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan without permission of the makers as
The Delhi High Court have asked Twitter to disclose details of users sharing content of Shah Rukh Khan’s Jawan
The Delhi High Court on Wednesday asked Twitter to disclose basic subscriber information, including e-mails, IP addresses and phone numbers, of some of its users who are allegedly sharing clips of Shah Rukh Khan’s upcoming film Jawan. The court had earlier directed YouTube, Twitter and Reddit to immediately block and take down the unauthorised broadcast of the film’s content and clips following a lawsuit by the film’s producer Red Chillies Entertainments Pvt Ltd.
Claiming that five accounts were posting some infringing material on Twitter, the counsel for the plaintiff said those “leaking this have access” to the company’s “system” and sought disclosure of the details of these account-users.
“The court directs defendant no 2 (Twitter) to provide information of the accounts with advance service to the counsel of the plaintiff so that the plaintiff can take appropriate action,” ordered Justice C Hari Shankar.
In April, the court had restrained various rogue websites and internet service providers from copying, recording, displaying or releasing any stills, songs, audio and video clips related to Shahrukh Khan | SRK starrer Jawan without a proper licence.
It had also directed YouTube, Twitter and Reddit to immediately block and take down all infringing contents and clips referred by production house.
The court’s interim order came on a plea by the production house seeking to restrain various rogue websites and ISPs and others, who are providing platforms over which content can be uploaded on the internet, from broadcasting or airing any part of Jawan, which is produced by the plaintiff and in which it claims copyright.
The plaintiff had alleged that clips and stills from the film are already available on the internet over various platforms, though no licence, to broadcast or transmit any part of the film has, till date, been granted by the plaintiff to any entity.
It’s really a matter of concern that to publish or broadcast stuffs of the movie Jawan is being considered as an offence.
Now it’s a warning from Red Chillies Entertainment to all including Bollywood Reporter/www.bollywoodreporters.com to be careful while writing,publishing materials related to Jawan.
I thought what about this particular news that I am Publishing/Posting/Sharing ?
Is this also an offence as well ?

The CBI has raised suspicion over the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) preparing an internal “information note” in which “names of certain other accused” were later included “through modification to suit the proceedings”. The initial note had 27 names but subsequently after modification it was reduced to 10, the FIR said.
Questioning the allegedly arbitrary nature of the probe, the agency has also pointed out that the man who supplied drugs to a friend of actor Shah Rukh Khan son Aryan Khan’s friend Siddharth Shah was not arrested despite him confessing to his role. The FIR said Wankhede and his team did not arrest Siddharth Shah, who admitted to supplying narcotics to Aryan’s friend Arbaaz Merchant.

Tovino Thomas is one of Kerala’s biggest stars. As his film ‘2018’, which is based on the devastating Kerala floods, creates havoc at the Kerala box office, he takes time off to comment on Sudipto Sen’s The Kerala Story.
Tovino said, “I haven’t seen the film. I have seen the trailer. You know something? I will never deny this conversion happening. It has happened. But I want to share a link of a content where a journalist explains how exaggerated the numbers are.”
Tovino has a problem with the exaggerated numbers claimed in The Kerala Story. He explains, “When you are making an exaggerated, fictional form of reality, you should title it ‘The Fictional Kerala Story’ not ‘The Kerala Story’’
He further said, ” I agree cinema has its exaggerations. But you can’t show 30 as 30,000. I don’t support any party or ideology. I believe in humanity. We are living in 2023. I really wish people would stop believing what they are shown, and start thinking on what they are being told.”

The first female Superstar of the Indian Film Industry- Sridevi
The first female Superstar of the Indian Film Industry- Sridevi
By
RUBY ZAIDI
Sridevi was the first actress who was tagged with the title Superstar.
Looking at the craze and fan following of Sridevi, journalist started writing the first Female Superstar of the country. Although before her there were Mumtaz, Zeenat Aman, Hema Malini, Rekha who made India crazy, but In the 1980s it was Sridevi all over. Sridevi used her attractive eyes and toned body structure so well that her first entry in all of her films were such mesmerizing that audiances welcome her with whistle and applauds. She became a threat for all the actresses, even top actors of her era felt insecure.
Her stardom was just like a miracle that never happened before. Her photographs adorned autorickshaws, her posters hung in barber shops, and her poses provided amiable employment to calendar artists.
Guys, could you tell me Who is the hero of Nagina or Mr. India? Who is the centre of attraction in Chaalbaaz or Chandni? In these films, made by established production houses, top heroes played supporting roles. These films revolved around her. And they all were blockbusters. Her Superstardom can be judged by K.C. Bokadia’s ‘Main Tera Dushman, Sridevi rescues hero Jackie Shroff from the clutches of the villain and delivers more punches than him in the fight scene that follows. She, not the ‘hero’ with facial hair, hacks down the villain Anupam Kher. In an era when heroines were often effaced from the climax, Sridevi radically recast the gender script. In the film Army there were seven supporting actors including Shah Rukh Khan and Sridevi played the lead.
This situation occurred because of her huge fan following and filmgoers loved to see their icon playing Hero in the movies.
The 1980s were her most prolific years. She acted in a staggering 150-odd Tamil, Telugu and Hindi films in that period, roughly fifteen films in one year. Many were with average storyline generally Sridevi managed to rise above the rubble. Like any good artiste, she was often better than the movie.
Fellow performer Rameshwari said, ‘Amitabh Bachchan had the ability to make any ridiculous situation look convincing. Sridevi also had that ability. She could do anything. She had a hunger to do more, like Mr Bachchan.’
Infact filmmakers were least interested in other stuffs after signing Sridevi in their films, as they were sure of her huge demand amongst the audiences.
Her heroes Jackie Shroff, Jitendra, Anil Kapoor, Rishi Kapoor etc looked like supporting actors in many of their Sridevi starrer movies.
Sridevi was just a miracle of the Almighty who bestowed her with all the ingredients of a finest actress who ruled the Indian Film Industry from Kashmir to Kanyakumari and even across the continent.
Remember her in Lamhe, Sadma She chill your spine with her incredible acting.

One of the biggest stars of the Indian Film Industry Priyanka Chopra is now recognised globally was very honest on the latest episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast, she didn’t hide anything and spoke her heart. This is probably for the first time that an actress has spoken so openly about relationships without dusting truths under the carpet.. Priyanka was asked, ” Did you have had any pattern while choosing your romantic partner ?”
Priyanka Chopra replied, ” I have been a ‘monogamist’ I went from relationship to relationship to relationship. I did not give myself time at all between relationships, till my last one. I always ended up dating the actors that I worked with or the people that I met on my set. I just thought I had an idea of what a relationship should be like, and I kept seeking that and trying to fit the people that came into my life into my idea of that relationship.”
We should appreciate Priyanka Chopra for being honest.

Love you Priyanka for being so honest.

Apart from being an accompalished actor, Feroz Khan was the most stylish star and filmmaker of his time. His iconic classics like Apradh, Dharmatma, Qurbani and Jaanbaaz, among others, are a proof of it. His movies still looks new. Feroz Khan gave many new technologies to the Indian Film Industry. After directed Sanjay Dutt starrer Yalgaar in 1992, Feroz Khan cut down on acting job substantially and only helmed his son Fardeen Khan’s debut movie Prem Aggan.

Coming in support of Manisha, Khan reportedly went on a rant against the entire nation while praising his home country India. Feroz khan said, ”
India is a secular country. Muslims there are making a lot of progress. Our President is a Muslim, the PM a Sikh. Pakistan was made in the name of Islam, but look how Muslims are killing each other.”
While talking about his visit to Pakistan, Feroz Khan then added, ” I didn’t want to come to the country but had to..”
He further spoke,
” I have not come here on my own. I was invited to come. Our films are so powerful that your government could not stop them for long.”

“Miss you, Maa! Your love and warmth continue to guide me every day, and I am forever grateful for the lessons you taught me. ♥️.”

Sanjay Dutt shared the post keeping his mom’s death anniversary in his mind, the post made his fans, followers and netizens emotional.
July 29, 1959 born Sanjay Dutt was really brat in his teens and youth days as his parents were very busy Superstars and active social workers, although Sunil Dutt and Nargis were good parents and to the best possible way they took care of their Kids, but Sanjay Dutt was exposed to few filthy guys quite early and suffered with scary drug addiction days, Sunil Dutt was a strict father but Nargis was a lovely mother and she always tried to handle Sanjay with more of love and care.
Nargis was the happiest mother when Sanjay Dutt was launched and started shooting for his debut movie Rocky, but unfortunately she died before the release of the film. Rocky was premiered and one seat besides Sunil Dutt was kept vaccant as a symbolic representation of her or who knows her soul might be there to witness the happiest and historical occasion.
The occasion was historical indeed as it gave Indian Film Industry one of the finest actors who gave some of the biggest hits of Bollywood including Vastav, Sajan, Munna Bhai series and others.
In a career spanning over four decades, Sanjay Dutt has won several accolades and acted in over 100 films of all the geners from romance to comedy genres, though usually in action genres, proving himself one of the most popular actors since the 1980s.
Sanjay Dutt married to Richa Sharma, they have one daughter Trishala, Richa lost her life with Cancer, later Sanjay Dutt was in a legal relationship with Rhea Pillai, but those were the worst days in Sanjay Dutt’s life, he was fighting legal battle in the court Of Law for serious allegations of the Bombay Bomb blasts. Then Manyata came into his life, they tied the knots,
…they have two
Children, Shahraan Dutt and Iqra Dutt.
Father Sunil Dutt was always there in support of his Son but he passed away as Verily we do belong to God, the Almighty and Verily to him we shall return, Sunil Dutt too had to go for his final destination.

Priyanka Chopra was in news recently as she blamed the Indian Film Industry with alligations that she wasn’t getting work in Bollywood that’s why she went out of the country to get some good work.
Now she is again in the news thanks to Citadel. Those who didn’t know let me tell them that Priyanka Chopra’s upcoming Amazon Prime Video series Citadel has reportedly beaten popular shows like Succession and Ted Lasson to top the web series viewership chart.
According to a recent report, Citadel, which is being produced by the Russo Brothers of Avengers fame, has generated significant buzz among viewers and is highly anticipated. The report claims that the show has already generated a significant amount of interest and is likely to become one of the most-watched web series of the year.
Citadel is a global thriller series that is being produced in multiple languages and will feature a diverse cast of actors from around the world. The series is set to explore the interconnected world of espionage, terrorism, and international politics.
The show is being developed by Amazon Studios and is part of a larger effort by the streaming giant to expand its global footprint and offer viewers a diverse range of content. The series is expected to be released later this year.
Priyanka Chopra isn’t doing any domestic film or series as she want a global recognition. If you remember she was finalized for a film opposite Salman khan King of Bollywood but at the eleventh hour she went to US for some project ignoring the commitment done by her for a film starring Megastar Salman Khan and this non professionalism of her made the Filmmakers of the Indian Film Industry cautious as they thought if Priyanka can leave a film starring Salman Khan then she isn’t a reliable actress and the result is obvious, she isn’t being offered Hindi films anymore.
Come on Priyanka, wake-up if you are really serious for the Indian Film Industry.

Irrfan Khan made India proud by his incredible acting in many Hollywood movies. Here I would like to share an interesting incident regarding Irrfan Khan, once, two Superstars along with Irrfan Khan were sitting somewhere in the US, what happened is very interesting to know, few guys and gals were eagerly watching the actors then they started stepping towards them, one amongst the two Superstars thought that they are coming for his autograph, but the herd directly came to Irrfan Khan and ignoring the rest they requested Irrfan Khan for his autograph. Do you want to know who were the two Superstars along with Irrfan Khan, they were Salman khan King of Bollywood and Akshay Kumar and the incident was told by Salman Khan amid a national Television Show. Salman Khan said, ” Akshay Kumar thought they were coming for his autograph as I was already aware about Irrfan Khan’s amazing popularity in English countries.”
Once while Hosting a section of the 61st Filmfare Awards together, Shah Rukh Khan and Irrfan Khan had the entire audience rolling with laughter at their friendly banter. While their moment started off as a bit tense, with Irrfan accusing King Khan of only promoting his movies at the award show, the conversation shifted when Shahrukh Khan | SRK’s Mohabbatein was brought up.
Revealing that he got inspired by King Khan’s role in Mohabbatein and made an AV to complete in a self-made award category called Avye Best Actor in AV, Irrfan said, “Maine aapki film Mohabbatein pe banayi hai, mujhe bohot pasand ayi thi aur mujhe laga bohot paise kamaye thee, par apne kuch kiya nahi tha. Sirf sweater upar dala aur violin bajaya.”
Jinko Chahta Tha Ki Jaan Banaye Woh Bhai Bula Rahi Hai
The legendary actor Irrfan Khan passed away on April 29 in 2020 at Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital and Medical Research Institute in Mumbai following months of battle with neuroendocrine tumor. We miss him alot.
Verily we do belong to God, the Almighty, Verily to him we return.
Irrfan Khan’s last movie The Song Of Scorpions released on Irrfan’s death anniversary. The director said, “I am choked with sadness as Irrfan is not here to see this moment.” He defined it as a strange feeling, a mix of grief and joy. Shashank Arora agreed, “It’s sad that people we love leave us. The joy of sharing something we made together is incredible. This altogether is life.”
One should not miss Irrfan Khan’s ten Hindi movies as they are MUST WATCH….
One should not miss Irrfan Khan’s ten Hindi movies as they are MUST WATCH….

Suhasini Tripathi
Maqbool (2004)
In this adaptation of William Shakespeare’s Macbeth, Irrfan plays Maqbool, the right-hand man of the underworld don, Abbaji (Pankaj Kapur). The don’s wife, Nimmi (Tabu) and Maqbool are in love with each other. Torn between loyalty and lust, Maqbool grapples with choices and guilt, all the while making us care for him despite the immorality of his actions. This is a searing portrait of ambition, despair and desire.
The Namesake (2006)
As a migrant in America, Ashoke is someone who tries to make a world for himself and his family that has the best of the India he’s left behind and the country that he’s embraced as his new home. Ashoke remains an outsider even after decades and though he is successful in his career, a considerate father and a loving husband, there’s a loneliness to this man who has been his family’s anchor.
Paan Singh Tomar (2012)
Irrfan is Tomar, an Army man who becomes an athlete because they get more food to eat. He first wins race after race and then turns into a dacoit when his ancestral land is snatched from him. Whether skipping over hurdles or engaging in violent encounters with policemen, Irrfan moves with grace and points the viewer’s attention to a flawed system that villainises those it should celebrate.
QISSA (2013)
As the patriarch Umber, Irrfan had the task of making us care for a man who is so desperate for a son, he forces his family to pretend the daughter born to him is a boy. Kanwar (Tillotama Shome) is made to dress like a boy, she’s treated differently from her sisters, and when she begins menstruating, Umber tells her she’s become a man. He even marries Kanwar off to Neeli (Rasika Dugal). It may sound ridiculous on paper, but Shome, Irrfan and Dugal’s performances made Qissa a powerfully moving take. This is one of those roles in which Irrfan plays a terrible man — Umber is selfish, violent and often reprehensible — and without losing sight of the character’s ugliness, Irrfan made us see the pathos under Umber’s anger and desperation.
The Lunchbox (2013)
Saajan is a widower on the brink of retirement. He’s an unremarkable man, living an unremarkable life, until one day, there’s a mix-up with this lunch dabba. He gets tiffin that was made by Ila (Nimrat Kaur) for her husband and what follows is a heartwarming friendship. Confidences are exchanged between strangers who feel like they know each other even though they have no idea what the other looks like. As Saajan, Irrfan was a man who is an unexpected well of optimism. Nothing in life is ever as bad as it seems, as far as Saajan is concerned, and it’s a perspective on the world that’s come not from naivete, but experience.
Piku (2015)
Rana (Irrfan), the owner of a taxi business, has to drive cantankerous passenger Piku (Deepika Padukone) and her father Bhashkor (Amitabh Bachchan) to Kolkata from Delhi. For him, the trip is a respite from his mother and sister even if it does mean that he has to navigate the eccentric angularities of Piku and her father. The friendship between Rana and Piku is one of Hindi cinema’s most charming relationships. It’s unusual for a number of reasons. First of all, both Rana and Piku are mature adults. They’re confident and most importantly, their relationship is rooted in respect. Irrfan’s Rana is not the conventional romantic lead, but he feels very much like the ideal man for Piku.
Talvar (2015)
As Ashwin Kumar, Irrfan is the Joint Director of the Central Department of Investigation (CDI) and appointed to investigate the murder of a 14-year-old girl. Her parents are prime suspects of the crime but Kumar is certain they are innocent. Embarrassed by his subordinates’ carelessness and unprofessionalism, Kumar takes matters into his own hands and is on the brink of unraveling the truth when a new senior officer is appointed. It’s through Irrfan’s character that the audience sees the flaws in the system and the way justice is denied because of a tangle of red tape and ineptitude.
Madaari (2016)
Nirmal’s son died when a bridge collapsed due to government negligence. In his attempt to exact revenge, he kidnaps the home minister’s son, intent upon finding those responsible for his son’s death. This film shows Irrfan as a common man who has been wronged and who has been pushed to a point of no-return by his circumstances. When he forces all those responsible to confess their crimes on air and returns the minister’s son safely, he shows that the pursuit of justice goes a longer way than vengeance.
Hindi Medium (2017)
Raj (Irrfan), a self-made boutique shop owner, is on a campaign to be seen as posh because his wife wants their daughter to attend a prestigious English medium school. From moving to a rich neighborhood to behaving in a more ‘refined’ manner, they go to extreme lengths to secure their child’s future. The film floundered in many ways, but Irrfan’s performance went a long way to highlight the politics of language and class that are normalised. His Raj is proud of how far he has come and remains rooted in his justified self-belief even while his family is transformed beyond recognition.
The Song of Scorpions (2017)
This film marks Irrfan’s last theatrical release, which makes it one for the books. As Aadam, the a camel trader who arrives like a knight in shining armour to save a damsel in distress, Irrfan presents a portrait of masculinity that’s as persuasive as it is troubling. Khan makes it impossible to dislike or suspect Aadam, even as his struggle to handle rejection hijacks his battle to earn his wife’s affection. His Aadam is a masterclass in masculine subterfuge.

Review U-turn
‘U-TURN’ REVIEW
By
KOMAL NAHTA
Balaji Telefilms Ltd. and Pawan Kumar Studios’ U-Turn is a suspense thriller. It is the remake of the Kannada film of the same name.
Radhika Bakshi (Alaya F), a journalist, is working on a story of the frequent road accidents on a flyover. Her colleague, Aditya Iyer (Ashim Gulati), is assisting her. While investigating, Radhika realises that the frequent accidents are caused due to the carelessness of those people who shift some blocks on the flyover to take a U-turn and don’t keep the blocks back in their place,
because of which car drivers crash against those blocks and die. Even while Radhika solves this mystery, she is shocked to find that of late, all those people who illegally take the U-turn, commit suicide soon thereafter. Radhika and police officer Arjun Sinha (Priyanshu Painyuli) set out to solve the mystery of the suicides. Are they really suicides or are they murders?
Why is one accident in particular — in which a lady and her daughter had died on the flyover — significant?
THE SONG OF SCORPIONS’ REVIEW
THE SONG OF SCORPIONS’ REVIEW
By
KOMAL NAHTA
Panorama Spotlight, 70 MM Talkies, Feather Light Films and KNM Production’s The Song Of Scorpions (UA) is the story of Nooran (Golshifteh Farahani) who administers herbal cure to patients living in her village in Rajasthan, and also sings to cure the patients. She has inherited the art from her mother, Zubaida (Waheeda Rehman). Camel trader Aadam (Irrfan Khan), a married man with children, lusts for Nooran but when she shuns his repeated proposals for marriage, he sends friend Munna (Shashank Arora) to rape her. Nooran is distraught after the rape. To make matters worse, her dear mother deserts her, leaving her all alone in the mad, bad world. Ultimately, Nooran agrees to marry Aadam. Even while she thinks, it is the end of her miseries,
Munna reveals to her that her own husband had sent him to rape her before their marriage. Does Nooran seek revenge? If so, how? If not, why does she forgive him?
Anup Singh has penned a story which is very different from the usual stories one sees. Having said that, it must be added that it is meant only and only for the festival circuit audience. His screenplay moves at a snail’s pace, often testing the viewer’s patience. Perhaps, the only plus point of the drama is that it is novel and also quite unpredictable. However, the impact of the freshness is largely diluted because of the excruciatingly slow pace. Anup Singh’s dialogues are real but although the film is certified (strangely) as a Hindi film, most of the dialogues are in a Rajasthani dialect, which further restricts the film’s already very limited appeal.
Golshifteh Farahani looks beautiful and acts naturally as Nooran. Irrfan Khan is realistic in the role of Aadam. Waheeda Rehman lends dignity to the character of Zubaida, with a fine performance. Shashank Arora provides able support as Munna. Tillotama Shome is good as the lady of the night. Sara Arjun (as Ayeesha), Shefali Bhushan (as Shakila), Kritika Pande (as Nooran’s friend, Amina), Bhagwant Kaur (as Badi Ammi) and the others lend the desired support.
Anup Singh’s direction does justice to the script but, like the script, even his narrative style would appeal to a very thin section of the elite audience. Madan Gopal Singh’s music and lyrics are fresh and appealing. Beatrice Thiriet’s background music is effective. Pietro Zuercher’s camerawork is nice but a lot of scenes (in the night) have been shot with minimal lighting, which prompts the audience to strain their eyes to see what’s unfolding on the screen. Rakesh Yadav’s production designing and Mayur Mulam’s art direction are of a fine standard. Marie-Pierre Frappier’s editing is sharp.
On the whole, The Song Of Scorpions is not meant for commercial release as it is predominantly a festival circuit film. Its difficult English title and its Rajasthani dialogues will only further restrict its appeal so that in the final tally, it will fail miserably at the box-office in spite of being a novel attempt.
Released on 28-4-’23 at PVR Lower Parel (daily 1 show) and other cinemas of Bombay by Panorama Studios. Publicity & opening: poor. …….Also released all over.
BAD BOY’ REVIEW
‘BAD BOY’ REVIEW
By
KOMAL NAHTA
Inbox Pictures Pvt. Ltd. and God Bless Entertainment’s Bad Boy (UA) is a love story.
Raghu (Namashi Chakraborty) and Ritu (Amrin Qureshi) fall in love with each other. However, Ritu’s dad (Saswata Chatterjee) has fixed her marriage with Tapon (Ambar Banerjee). The father completely disapproves of Raghu as he doesn’t even do anything for a living. When Ritu insists that she would marry only Raghu, the father throws a challenge to Raghu: that he should pay all the bills of Ritu’s family for one month; if he succeeds, the father would allow the two to marry, but if he is unable to do so, he would ask for the father’s forgiveness and get out of Ritu’s life. Even as Raghu is trying hard to live up to the challenge, the two love birds meet with an accident in which Ritu is seriously injured. Does Raghu have the money for Ritu’s treatment? Does he have to sacrifice his love? Or does Ritu’s father relent?
Rajkumar Santoshi’s story is as old as the hills and, therefore, looks completely and absolutely dated. Sanjeev’s screenplay is so dull that it tests the audience’s patience. It is also full of gaping holes. For example, Ritu’s father throws Raghu a challenge but he does nothing at all to address the problem of Ritu’s stand to marry only Raghu. Another major drawback is that there is no heroism of Raghu at all. He simply gets lucky when he is plying the owner of an advertising agency in his autorickshaw, but he does nothing heroic. Even if one were to counter this argument by saying that he does use his brains, the flip side is that his idea (which is approved by the agency’s client) is so kiddish that it fails to make him a hero. Again, in the hospital scene also, Raghu merely convinces the doctor to perform the surgery. But his logic in convincing the surgeon is so ridiculous and so far-fetched that the viewer hardly feels like applauding him for that. Although the film is a love story, romance is almost completely missing. Comedy is weak while emotions barely touch the heart. Perhaps, the weakest point of the drama is that the two young lovers never endear themselves to the audience. Sanjeev’s dialogues, with additional dialogues by Ranjit Kapoor, are good at places.
Newcomer Namashi Chakraborty and Amrin Amrin Qureshi are not hero-heroine material. They both lack the glamour one associates with a lead pair. Namashi Chakraborty’s performance is fair. Amrin Qureshi makes a very ordinary debut. Saswata Chatterjee is very earnest and tries to rise above the insipid script with a truly inspired performance. Rajesh Sharma is alright as Raghu’s father but he goes overboard at times. Johnny Lever (as Poltu) does evoke laughter at places with his brand of acting. Darshan Jariwala provides reasonable support as the surgeon. Ambar Banerjee is natural as Tapon. Nandini Chatterjee is average as Ritu’s mother. Madhu Anand Chandhok is so-so as Raghu’s mother. Rajpal Yadav is fair as the bus conductor.
Kurush Deboo is okay as the professor. Kenneth Desai is alright as the college principal. Amarjeet Shah, Rahul Kumar, Sagar Chavan, Shiv Aryan and Sandeep Bhojak lend routine support as Raghu’s friends. Ashwin Mushran (as Tej Gulati), Somya Singh (as Devika), Divyank Agarwal (as Om Gulati), Sudhir Dayma (as the owner of the advertising agency), Satya Vagle (as the agency owner), Neetu (as the doctor’s daughter), Kavya V., Rinku Rajput and Harshita Rathore (all three as Ritu’s friends), Shoma Mukherji (as Tapon’s mother), Pradeep Roycott (as Tapon’s father) and the rest provide routine support.
Rajkumar Santoshi’s direction is far better than his choice of subject. Himesh Reshammiya’s music is average. Lyrics are commonplace. Choreography (Niharika Khan) is dull. Raju Singh’s background music is fair. Tanveer Mir’s camerawork is ordinary. Action scenes (choreographed by Ravi Varma) are devoid of thrill. Ilayaraja’s production designing is dull. Steven Bernard’s editing leaves something to be desired.
On the whole, Bad Boy is such a poor show that it will not even bring a hint of joy to anyone. Disaster.
Released on 28-4-’23 at Metro Inox (daily 1 show) and other cinemas of Bombay thru AA Films. Publicity & opening: poor. …….Also released all over.

Why has the dubbed Hindi version of PS-2 been released this week when the dubbed Hindi version of PS – I did not do too well at the box-office?
Virendra Rathod, New Delhi
– PS – I did supremely well in Tamil, hence PS-2. And since the first part was dubbed in Hindi, the producers have also dubbed part 2 in spite of the fact that the first part did average business in Hindi. The first part ended with a clear promise of a second part. So, the producers had to fulfil that promise as much for the Tamil film-going audience as for the Hindi.
Which is a bigger industry — the Hindi film industry or the Hindi OTT industry?
Rukhsar Parvez, Mumbai
– Undoubtedly, the Hindi OTT industry is far bigger than the Hindi film industry.
With the huge slate of films and web series announced by Jio Studios recently, do you predict that Jio will soon become the biggest studio?
Sachin Thakkar, Pune
You bet, it will soon be the biggest studio. Perhaps, Jio might aim at releasing 52 films a year, or, in other words, one every week!

Sometime name of a character in a film carry so much of precious memories that we want to cherish it forever. Aishwarya Rai Bachchan mesmerised the audiences with her sheer beauty and exception acting skills in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s 1999 romantic musical Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, which saw her play Nandini opposite Bollywood Megastar Salman Khan.
Aishwarya has once again taken on the role of a character named Nandini for Mani Ratnam’s Ponniyin Selvan two part film. During a press event for Ponniyin Selvan: II, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was asked about her special connection with the name Nandini.
Talking about it, she said, “What a coincidence. It’s amazing na? Even Nandini in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam was very very memorable. She has lived on people’s heart and I’m so so thankful that I got to play Nandini then too. She had remained special to the audience and, of course, to me. That was Sanjay Bhansali ji and today for my Mani Garu, I got to play Nandini in Ponniyin Selvan. That’s just tremendously a blessing, to have gotten to play such strong women, such layered women and women with character that touch the lives of so many women out there. There’s a relatability and I am very, very grateful.”
What’s your take on this screen name Mr. Salman khan King of Bollywood ?

Remembering Two legends Feroz Khan and Vinod Khanna on their death anniversary
Remembering Two legends Feroz Khan and Vinod Khanna on their death anniversary
By
RUBY ZAIDI
Whether you believe in spritual connection or not, the fact that late legendary stars and best friends Vinod Khanna and Feroz Khan died on the same date, eight years apart, is something that will stun you for a few seconds for sure. Not just this, the two Hindi film industry icons were almost of the same age at the time of their demise and suffered from the same disease– cancer.
Although Feroz Khan and Vinod Khanna together acted in three films only but they were best friends. There friendship was talk of the tinsel town. Feroz Khan and
Vinod Khanna acted together in Shankar Shambhu for the first time, Feroz Khan essayed the role of Shankar and Vinod Khanna played the Character of Shambhu.
Shankar Shambhu
is an action-packed film starring Feroz Khan and Vinod Khanna in the lead, screenplay revolves around two petty dacoits, Shankar and Shambhu, who become vigilantes to fight against corruption and injustice in their society. The film was a blockbuster hit at the box office as it was filled with powerful performances of both the handsome stars, Film has thrilling action scenes and catchy music. Shankar Shambhu is a classic example of the incredible on-screen partnership between Khan and Khanna. While shooting for Shankar Shambhu Feroz Khan and Vinod Khanna became friends as there were many similarities amongst them. Feroz Khan and Vinod Khanna were spotted together with their girlfriends in parties and events. When Feroz Khan planned Qurbani, he considered Amitabh Bachchan with himself as Amitabh Bachchan said to Feroz Khan that “We should do a film together” So Feroz Khan thought to cast him, but when everything got ready and the film was to go on floor Amitabh Bachchan had some problem with the dates as he was committed to some other film, Feroz Khan wasn’t in mood to postponed the date as all the other actors were locked, so Feroz Khan offered the film to Vinod Khanna. Qurbani is about two friends, Rajesh and Amar, who get embroiled in a dangerous criminal underworld after a series of unfortunate events. The film was a blockbuster hit, it broke all the existing records at the box office, known for its chart-topping music, especially Aap Jaisa Koi and high-octane action sequences. Feroz Khan’s stylish direction and the triangular sizzling chemistry between Feroz Khan, Vinod Khanna and Zeenat Aman make Qurbani a timeless classic and a must watch for all. Qurbani gave many new technologies to the Indian Film Industry.
Vinod Khanna suddenly became the number one Hero leaving Amitabh Bachchan behind. Feroz Khan was offered Solo roles and some co-starring Vinod Khanna by all the top banners including B.R Chopra, Yash Chopra, Subhash Ghai, Prakash Mehra, Manmohan Desai and other biggies but he didn’t accept their offers as he was determined to do films of his home production only.
Vinod Khanna also didn’t accept any offer, all of sudden he left the film Industry and became the desciple of Osho. Feroz Khan felt bad.
After a long gap Feroz Khan planned to make Dayawan for himself but later he thought to cast Vinod Khanna. He somehow contacted Vinod Khanna and convinced him for the film.
Vinod Khanna came back to Mumbai and started doing films like Satmevjayate.
Feroz Khan started to shoot Dayawan but with a sacrifice, the role which was tailored for him he gave it to his friend Vinod Khanna and he himself acted in a supporting role this was the same Feroz Khan who fought for his role in Mela with his brother Sanjay Khan. The Film revolves around a young boy who takes to a life of crime and grows up to be a criminal with a conscience. The enemies he makes along the way target his family in order to destroy him.Dayawan gave Vinod Khanna a new image, the movie became a landmark for Vinod Khanna and Feroz Khan fans weren’t happy watching Feroz Khan in a supporting role.
Bollywood reporter/www.bollywoodreporters.com pay it’s sincerest tributes to Feroz Khan and Vinod Khanna on their death anniversary.

Raju is still a busy man with his various creative activities associated to films. It’s impossible to forget his contribution to the Indian Film and Television Industry as an actor.
Raju was recently spotted with his childhood friend Salman Khan in an Iftaar party hosted by Politician Abu Azmi.
According to a reliable source Raju was seen in front of Salman Khan who was backed by Shera, Salman Khan’s personal bodyguard.
From the last few years Salman Khan is getting threats through emails, letters and phone calls, but Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi ki Jaan Salman Khan is a brave man and he never get scared.
Threats to Salman Khan has increased from the last few months.
Salman Khan’s father Salim Khan got a letter threatening to Kill Salman Khan as they have killed Moosawala, it was said that the threats were given by Lawrence Bishnoi, then again, Salman received a mail and very recently a Police man received a phone call at a Police station, the caller said that Salman Khan’s life is in danger as he will kill him.
Few Prisoners did confessions when they were grilled by the Policemen that they tried to Kill Salman Khan earlier, but they didn’t succeed as the gun carried by them was for short range targets.
However, Salman Khan has been provided with Y+ category security.
Whenever Salman Khan attends a public event, his personal bodyguard Shera takes a very special care of his ‘Maalik’, that’s what he pronounce for his Boss Salman Khan.
When Salman khan King of Bollywood was there at the Ramzan Iftaar Party hosted by Abu Azmi, Shera was extra careful, as the event was crowded, Shera was seen guarding Salman Khan from his back. But what the guests like the most ? It was Raju Shrestha’s kind gesture as he came infront of his friend like a shield to provide him safety from his front. The trio Shera, Salman and Raju made a Sandwich.
This is called a true friendship. Watching Raju while taking special care of Salman Khan, Suniel Shetti said, ” Raju Shrestha has presented an example of a true friendship, love you Raju.”
We appreciate and salute you Raju Shrestha for the care and concern shown by you for Salman Khan. Raju, you are an angel.

Megastar Salman Khan starrer Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan has finally witnessed an impressive jump everyone was waiting for.
Now reports have arrived in that Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan has crossed 112.80 crores mark at the box-office windows and it’s a great achievement by the Megastar Salman Khan.
Any film with all the brilliance will definitely score good with even an ordinary starcast, but a film which opened up with mixed reviews does score better, further good and finally stood best at the box-office windows, this miracle only a Salman Khan’s movie can do.
That’s why Salman khan King of Bollywood is called a Megastar and the biggest Superstar of the Indian Film Industry and one of the biggest Superstars of the Globe. However,
Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan has earned 100 crores isn’t a great news for fans and trade analysts as all the records are already engraved in the name of Salman Khan excluding new records by Shah Rukh Khan starrer Pathaan.
Helmed by Farhad Samji, the family drama, action flick also stars Pooja Hegde, Shehnaaz Gill, Raghav Juyal, Jassie Gill, Palak Tiwari, Siddharth Nigam, Jagapathi Babu, Venkatesh, Vijender Singh.
Bollywood Reporter/www.bollywoodreporters.com met the Senior most journalist Sharad Rai to know his take about Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan..
Sharad Rai said, ” The Salman Khan starrer film was titled Insha Allah then it was titled Kabhi Eid Kabhi Deepawali and finally titled Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, infact this shows that Director Fahad Samji wasn’t sure about anything except one thing that the film has Salman Khan in it and his Megastardom will washout all the grey spots and that’s what happening now.”
Senior Journalist Sharad Rai further said, ” I see no extraordinary contribution of Fahad Samji, it’s only Salman Khan who is carrying a dozen debutant on his strong shoulders.”
Sharad Rai concluded by saying, ” Film Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan will emerged as a hit but only because of Salman Khan and his incredible fan following.”
The senior most Journalist Sharad Rai is damn sure that Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan will not stop now as it has picked up the pace.

Netflix is all set to bring the curtains down on its 25-year-old DVD-by-mail business. Before it started streaming films and web series, Netflix was a company carrying on the business of sending DVDs through the mail in easily recognisable red-and-white envelopes.
On April 18, Netflix said that it would ship its final DVDs to customers on September 29, 2023. Netflix’s co-CEO, Ted Sarandos, said, “Those iconic red envelopes changed the way people watched shows and movies at home — and they paved the way for the shift to streaming.”
The announcement was part of Netflix’s earnings report for the first quarter of 2023, which underlined how dominant and significant streaming had become for the company.
‘CHENGIZ’ (DUBBED) REVIEW
‘CHENGIZ’ (DUBBED) REVIEW

Jeetz Filmworks’ Chengiz (dubbed from the Bengali film of the same name; UA) is a gangster drama set in Calcutta. It chronicles the journey of Chengiz alias Jaidev Singh (Jeet) who ruled Calcutta’s underworld in the 1970s, 1980s and till mid-1990s.
Neeraj Pandey and Rajesh Ganguly have written a half-baked and oft-repeated gangster story which doesn’t offer novelty. Rajesh Ganguly’s screenplay is predictable and, therefore, quite boring. There are several scenes which are so lacklustre that they don’t fit well in an underworld film. Dialogues are monotonous.

Celina Jaitly has slammed a Twitter troll who passed a below-the-belt remark about her on social media. The Bollywood actress took to her Twitter handle and lashed out at the user who made shocking claims about her. The netizen, who claims to be a member of the overseas Censor Board, alleged that Jaitly is the only B-Town actress who ‘slept’ with Fardeen Khan and his father Feroz Khan. Needless to add, Jaitly put up a strongly-worded tweet against the Twitter user.
It’s really sad and disgusting to blame a legendary actor Feroz Khan who is no more.
Celina and Fardeen Khan are available to speak and clarify for the blame but they are quiet and this is the correct step to just leave the matter upto their fans.
Amid the troll there came many fans and supporters of Celina to defend the actress.
One of the fans suggested Celina to remain quiet and let the filthy dog bark.

By
KOMAL NAHTA
Well-known film journalist Avijit Ghosh’s book on the Hindi film industry of the 1980s is out. Tracing the many lives of ’80s’ Bombay Cinema and imaginatively titled When Ardh Satya Met Himmatwala, the book is insightful and has been written after a lot of research. Not surprising because even Ghosh’s articles on films and film people as also his obituaries of film celebrities are always excellently researched.
It’s no wonder then that veteran Mahesh Bhatt has summed up his feelings about the book thus: “It you love Hindi cinema, you will love this book.”
Just to give one an idea of what the book deals with, here’s what the back cover says:
“The 1980s. In Hindi cinema, it was the decade of the dark and powerful police drama Ardh Satya. It was the decade of the kitschy excess of the action comedy Himmatwala. It was a decade of opposites.

APPEAL AGAINST SHILPA’S DISCHARGE DISMISSED
By
KOMAL NAHTA
A sessions court in Bombay on April 3 dismissed an appeal filed by the state against Shilpa Shetty’s discharge in a 2007 obscenity case. In January 2022, a metropolitan magistrate court discharged Shilpa from a criminal case filed against her in 2007 in Alwar (Rajasthan), for the alleged offence of obscenity following an event where she was hugged and kissed by Hollywood actor Richard Gere in public.
Opposing the state’s appeal, Shilpa Shetty’s lawyer submitted that the only allegation against her was that she did not protest when she was kissed by the co-accused, Gere, and it did not make her a conspirator or perpetrator of any crime. He sought a dismissal of the appeal against her discharge in the case. The case was transferred to Bombay in 2017 on the Supreme Court’s orders. The Rajasthan police filed an appeal against the dismissal.
Shilpa’s reply said, she retained the right to separately file criminal proceedings against the original complainant for malicious proceedings and civil damages.
Shilpa had attended an AIDS awareness event in Rajasthan in 2007. A complaint was filed in the court of judicial magistrate first class, Mundawar, for obscenity and criminal conspiracy. In January 2022, the metropolitan magistrate said, “After giving the prosecution and accused opportunity of being heard, I am satisfied that charge against present accused, that is, Shilpa Shetty, is groundless.”
The accusation against Shetty was that the complainant read an article and saw photographs of their public display of affection. It led to a nationwide protest where Shilpa and Gere’s effigies were burnt on the streets.

A woman, who has done bit roles in TV serials and films, agreed to play wife to a man from Madhya Pradesh for five days for Rs. 5,000, but was shocked when her ‘husband of five days’ refused to let her return to Bombay, claiming that it was a genuine marriage that the two had taken part in. A 21-year-old from Bombay agreed to a proposal to marry and play wife for five days. The offer had come from her friend, Ayesha’s husband, Karan.
On March 12, the actress and Karan reached Mandsaur village bus stand in Madhya Pradesh, where Karan introduced her to his acquaintance, Mukesh, who took an instant liking for her. Mukesh had a discreet chat with Karan and told the lady that she would have to play his (Mukesh’s) wife in front of his family. Therefore, Mukesh and the actress got ‘married’ in a temple, with Mukesh’s family in attendance. She also moved into Mukesh’s home and acted like his wife.
On the sixth day, she was aghast when Mukesh refused to let her go, claiming that it was a genuine marriage which had been solemnised and that he had paid Karan. When the actress called up Karan, he was cagey. Feeling cheated and trapped, the lady clandestinely called up a friend in Bombay, who alerted the police. On reaching Mandsaur, the Bombay police asked the actress whether she had been sexually assaulted, which she denied. Mukesh and Karan, meanwhile, had escaped. The police brought back the actress to Bombay.
The incident mirrors a social problem of gender inequality. There are more men than women. In villages of Madhya Pradesh, middlemen arrange women for marriage for Rs. 50,000.

BOMBAY HC QUASHES JOURNALIST’S CRIMINAL INTIMIDATION COMPLAINT AGAINST SALMAN KHAN
BOMBAY HC QUASHES JOURNALIST’S CRIMINAL INTIMIDATION COMPLAINT AGAINST SALMAN KHAN
By
KOMAL NAHTA
The Bombay high court today (March 30) quashed the private complaint against Salman Khan, filed by journalist Ashok Pandey in 2019, alleging criminal intimidation. A metropolitan court at Andheri in Bombay had earlier issued the actor summons, which was challenged in the high court.
Pandey had alleged in his private complaint before the magistrate that Salman snatched his mobile phone while cycling on a street of Bombay when some media persons started to click his photos. The actor argued with him and then threatened him, he added. The magistrate last year ordered a police investigation under section 202 of the CrPC and then issued process and summons under section 204 of the CrPC, returnable on April 5, 2022. Salman and bodyguard Nawaz Shaikh, who was also an accused in the case, challenged this order before the HC.
On an earlier date, Justice Revati Mohite Dere stayed the summons, citing improvements in the complainant’s statement. She said that being a journalist, the complainant wouldn’t have kept quiet and all his allegations would have reflected in the first complaint itself.
Justice Bharati Dangre asked today, “Before the process was issued, was the procedure followed? You claim, force was used, but for what?” Salman’s advocate, Abad Ponda, argued before Justice Dangre that the star only asked his bodyguard to stop Pandey from taking his pictures. He further argued that a common link between an offence under sections 504 and 506 of the IPC is a threat which includes consequences. He explained that abuses were not threats.
Ashok Pandey had initially filed a complaint alleging offences under sections 324, 392, 426, 506(ii) and 34 of the IPC and sought for an FIR to be registered under section 156(3). However, the court turned down the request for an FIR but directed investigation under section 202 of the CrPC to ascertain if there were sufficient grounds to proceed against Salman and his bodyguard.
The metropolitan magistrate had relied on a police report in the matter, which stated that prima facie offences under IPC sections 504 (intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of peace) and 506 (criminal intimidation) were made out against Salman.

To this, Rekha suddenly pronounced, “janam se pyaasi hoon” (I am thirsty since my birth), and this left everyone spellbound.

When Saroj Khan scolded Rekha
When Saroj Khan scolded Rekha

One of the finest choreographers of all time, Saroj Khan, the legend has choreographed hundreds of iconic songs/dances. Even to this very day, the choreographies she had done in her illustrious career are an example for so many aspiring choreographers and dancers in the world of cinema across the globe.Besides being an exceptionally trained choreographer, Saroj Khan was loved by almost all the A-listed celebrities in the film industry.
In 1990 when K.R. Reddy collected the cast of Rekha, Rishi Kapoor, Jeetendra, Danny Denzongpa for the film, Sheshnaag. The director had also brought the ace choreographer, Saroj Khan into the film to choreograph the song, O Mere Dushman, which had gone on to become one of the biggest hits of that era. However, not everyone is aware of the incident when Rekha was scolded by Saroj Khan that had left Rekha in tears. That scolding by the very strict Saroj Khan made Rekha burst with tears. The incident amid the two famous celebrities of the Indian Film Industry was such that it made the headlines in the media. Reason behind the scolding was that Rekha wasn’t showing enough interest and dedication while working with Saroj Khan. The then one of the assistants of Saroj Khan, Ahmad Khan recalled the incident-
“Masterji scolded Rekha ji,
Rekha suddenly turned her face and I saw she had tears in her eyes. So, Saroj masterji told her that ‘I feel you should shoot today’, and she said, ‘Main karoongi shooting, zaroor karungi, and Rekha jee walked away to get ready’.”
Despite all the differences that Rekha and Saroj Khan had during the filming of O Mere Dushman, the choreography of the song is still regarded as one of the finest choreographies in Indian cinema, with Rekha giving a generational performance making it iconic for ages.
Choreographer Saroj Khan was very strict when it comes upto rehearsal of the dances. All the actors have faced such kind of strictness once or twice while learning the steps choreographed by Saroj Khan.

Every now and then there comes a news that xyz film’s sequel or Frenchise is going on floor, but maximum announced sequels, recently haven’t gone on the floors, it looks like Filmmakers are doubtful about the success of their frenchise/sequals.

Now one other film’s sequel has been announced, it claims that audience will get the chance to witness the duo of Akshay Kumar and John Abraham, they will collabrate on screen again for the sequel of Desi Boyz !

Senior Journalist Sharad Rai further told, “The title of Ayothi remake in Hindi and Telugu will be the same… Ayodhya.

Kamal Haasan deserve an Oscar : Fans
Kamal Haasan deserve an Oscar : Fans
By
RUBY ZAIDI
There was a time when one of the finest actors of the Indian Cinema Kamal Haasan, was called Oscar Nayagan. Kamal Haasan, the living legend for a long time was considered as the best actor of the Globe and he deserves Oscar for his incredible acting, Kamal Haasan’s fans lovingly called him Oscar Nayagan, the Oscar hero in praise of him. But even though he’d never won an Oscar. Although he is the most deserving actor to potentially receive such a prestigious and popular award of the Globe. But when AR Rahman won the twin Oscar in 2008 for his Slumdog Millionaire, then the diehard fans of
Kamal thought that now it won’t be
appropriateto call him by a title Oscar Hero, as AR Rahman from the same industry have won twin awards.
But this hasn’t stopped the Southern Indian audience from evoking the Oscar tag just for AR Rahman winning Oscar. When Rajinikanth’s Darbar was released in 2020, some of his fans streamed out of cinema halls and bewilderingly shouted, “Oscar kudra Trump-ey!” Yo Trump, give that Oscar to our superstar!
That Darbar was panned by critics and audiences is another matter. But it’s amusing that his fans felt the then US president would arrange an Oscar for their favourite star. This was hilarious and ridiculous demand went on to become an iconic meme in Tamil pop culture.
However, these arguments might be genuine, it’s essential to know and understand that they are of no concern to the Academy awards or its jury members. RRR undoubtedly represents the highest form of Telugu popular movies for audience combining grandiosity and sophistication. The film is made up of one spectacle after another, including Naatu Naatu and its choreography. It is precisely this that captured the attention of the Academy and western audiences.
and choreographed song. If anything, its Oscar win proves the potency of regional cinema in the international market, particularly at a time when Bollywood has been dealing with a bad phase, films aren’t doing well as they used to be. In 2014, films like Birdman or The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance, Boyhood, The Grand Budapest Hotel and Whiplash all competed in the best picture category. They were all equally classics but only one could win and Birdman won the Oscars.
So, irrespective of your personal obsession for your Idol Hero and his films with pure merit can’t win a Oscar, try to understand and use your intellect with the truth that the Oscar’s trophy holder in any category may not necessarily be your personal favourite.
Plus, why is it that we never obsess as much about our own awards here, whether it’s the National Awards given by the central government or private ones like the Filmfare Awards? Has the Indian citizens given up on the credibility of our prestigious awards ?
Are we still living under the British Rule ?
Come on let’s talk more about our Indian Awards…
National Awards, Filmfare Awards are very prestigious honours and if have doubts about their credibility then collectively try to make these awards more authentic.

Rajamouli’s historic movie RRR managed to remain in headlines since its release. The Naatu Naatu track of the movie won the Best Original song at the 95th Academy Awards and the whole team of RRR is on cloud nine. From the director to lead actors, several team members attended the event in Los Angeles but it is reported that The Academy committee didn’t provide free passes to Rajamouli and the other crew members to watch the event Live sitting in the ceremony hall.
To watch the event, according to reports by Siyasat Jadeed director SS Rajamouli bought passes for himself and for other important team members at the cost of 25000 USD, which is approx Rs 20.6L per person. The RRR director
has chosen the last row of the hall keeping in mind the cost of tickets.
SS Rajamouli, Rama Rajamouli, Kartikeya and his wife, Jr NTR, Ram Charan and Upasana were present in the hall. Composed by MM Keeravani (M.M Kreem). Naatu Naatu is the first Indian language song which won the Oscars for Best Original Song.
It’s really shocking as the director of such a high status wasn’t invited by the Academy Awards committee.
But hats off for the director who bought the passes just to cheer up his team member Chandrabose holding the trophy.
….Although it also shows that how much we are obsessed for Oscars, it’s really very sad.

Indian Film Industry has suffered alot during Pandemic even after that all isn’t well, if we exclude Pathaan, maximum of the films turned out as disasters. Tu Jhoothi Mai Makkaar is also not performing as it was expected, it’s being said that TJMM is an average movie, few said it’s a moderate success, but it clearly shows that now audiences don’t want to waste money on just every film, they will buy tickets for extraordinary movies only, makers are worried and from now they will leave no stone unturned to make their movies hit at the box-office windows.
Ajay Devgn is coming up with his new movie titled Bholaa, and he too is doing all his best for the success of his movies.
The makers of Bholaa have come up with a unique idea to ensure that the world of ‘Bholaa’ reaches the masses by announcing a special Bholaa Yatra. A truck loaded with all the assets of promotions was flaged off by the leading man Ajay Devgn.
‘Bholaa’ truck will be going to Thane, Surat, Ahmedabad, Udaipur, Jaipur, Gurugram, Delhi, Kanpur and Lucknow.
The Bholaa truck will be placed in a well-known location in each city and a fun-filled evening will be organised for the people of the cities. Audience can watch the trailer of Ajay Devgn starrer Bholaa, participate in special activities and win Bholaa merchandise.
Yeah ! It’s a unique idea although Politicians often promote them by organising this kind of yatras but this will be the first time when a Bollywood film is being promoted like this way.
Congratulations and all the best Ajay!

Bollywood Reporter/www.bollywoodreporters.com pinged the director to know the fact behind the buzz, director Luv Ranjan revealed “Yes, this is true that Ranbir has still not taken his payment but this doesn’t mean that the film haven’t done well at the box-office, infact Ranbir never make calls for his payments, as he is more hungry for good work rather payment, for him his fee is secondary, he is more passionate for acting and not for money.”
Luv Ranjan further said, ” TJMM is doing quite well, it’s a successful film and please don’t rely on the rumours, let the final data come. ”
I asked, ” A trade Analyst have said that TJMM haven’t performed as they expected from it, what do you say ?”
Luv said, ” I don’t know what’s their expectations from TJMM, for now I will only say that our film is running successfully.”
I asked, ” One more trade analyst have said, ‘TJMM is a moderate hit’ ?”
Luv Ranjan said, ” Please don’t make guesses, I have already told you that Tu Jhoothi Mai Makkaar is a successful film and let the final Data come and that we will definitely circulate.”
So guys, Tu Jhooti Mai Makkar isn’t a flop like Shahzada and Selfiee, it’s a successful film and sooner or later you’ll get the complete information about it’s total earnings.

‘LOHARDAGA’ REVIEW |
‘LOHARDAGA’ REVIEW
By
KOMAL NAHTA
Rose Quartz Entertainment and Akriti Entertainment Pvt. Ltd.’s Lohardaga (UA) is the story of a young man who is trapped into becoming a Naxalite. A young patriot at heart dreams of joining the army. But he is tricked into becoming a Naxalite.
Lal Vijay Shahdeo and Birendra Paswan have written a story and screenplay, both of which move on predictable paths. Consequently, nothing really engages the viewers. Why, even the dialogues are routine.
Sanjay Mishra performs ably. Vijay Raaz is okay. Akhilendra Mishra does a fair job. Raquib Arshad is alright. Hansraj Jagtap lends reasonable support. Neetu Pandey, Dadhi Pandey, Sushila Lakra, Ravi Jhankal, Rishi Thakur, Ratnakar Mavilach, Nisha Lakra, Alisha Tigga, Kaajal Kunder, Sarvadaman, Priya Ambast, Chanda Kumari, Shravani Desai, Vishal Shahdeo, Shailendra Sharma, and the rest provide routine support.
Lal Vijay Shahdeo’s direction is average. Siddhant Madhav and Nandlal Nayak’s music is dull. Lyrics (Madhu Mansuri Hasmukh and Arafat Mehmood) are commonplace. Ashish Rego’s background music is dull. Ajit Singh’s camerawork is alright. Editing (Rakesh Solanki and Pradeep Sahu) ought to have been sharper.
On the whole, Lohardaga is a disaster.
Released on 10-3-’23 at Carnival Oshiwara (daily 1 show) and another cinema of Bombay thru Studiograph Infocom OPC Pvt. Ltd. Publicity & opening: poor. …….Also released all over.

Superstar Ajay Devgn is a trustworthy name when it comes upto good films. Ajay Devgn has always given worth watching movies with great performances. Although, Drishyam is originally a Southern Indian Film, but the Hindi version did better business than the original one. Ajay Devgn ‘s performance in the movie was lauded by the audience.
As Drishyam series has become hugely profitable in Hindi compared to other languages, it’s obvious makers are busy in bringing out it’s 3rd sequel very soon. However, the Hindi audience might not have to wait for long for the third one. The makers of Drishyam 3 are reportedly making the Hindi & Malayalam version, starring Ajay Devgn and Mohanlal, simultaneously, it’s a good news for the fans of Ajay Devgn and Mohan Lal as well.

Arbaaz told him, “You were so drunk but dad said he has to go home. We tried to take you home in a cab. You forgot where you lived.” Arbaaz continued, “We were embarrassed but also giggling. You’ve made a 360 transition post that,”
Mahesh Bhatt revealed, “One day, I woke up and I found myself sleeping on the footpath of JVPD scheme. I remember my face was on the concrete and dawn was just breaking. I realised I had gone for some party and I had fallen down on the road and slept there. I remember walking up to my house, I was living with Soni. She said. ‘What happened to you?’ I said, ‘I don’t know, I’ve become an alcoholic’.’ And then a miracle happened. My first baby was born with Soni, Shaheen. When I came to the hospital, I was holding Shaheen in my arms and I went to kiss her, I got this feeling as if she moved away. She couldn’t bear the fumes of alcohol. She couldn’t have done, she was a baby, but this is what I hallucinated and projected. That did it.

Who has directed Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan ?

RUBY ZAIDI
There are buzz in the Indian Film Industry that Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan is originally directed by Salman Khan and the credit is being given to Farhad Samji, but till date all of us were in the impression that the biggest Superstar of the continent Salman Khan starrer is directed by no one else but Fahad Samji.
Bollywood Reporter/www.bollywoodreporters.com tried to cross check the facts about the buzz.
The facts that we came across wasn’t unbelievable. Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan has been helmed by Fahad Samji but…as we know that there are few actors who take the final decisions about how to shoot a particular scene, it is said about Aamir Khan that he instructs his directors for the movies of his home productions, apart Aamir there are many actors who give their opinions to their directors. Some have suggestions for their directors about how to shoot a particular shot.
Actually Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan is Helmed by Farhad Samji, the movie is a Salman khan King of Bollywood starrer with Venkatesh Daggubati, Jagapathi Babu and Pooja Hegde. Its screenplay is done by Sajid Nadiadwala.
The buzz that we are talking about the original director of the film, to the best of our knowledge KKBKKJ is directed by Fahad Samji and the buzz claiming Salman has directed the movie is just because of Salman Khan’s involvement in KKBKKJ has been quite extra in comparison of an actor’s contribution. A source revealed that Salman is “re-editing the film” and every shot in the film has been approved by Salman as he now works to take down the duration of the film.
The source further reveals,
“Not one shot in Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan has gone without Salman’s approval. He is now re-diting the film to make the narration tighter and to bring down the film’s playing time,” The prestigious newspaper Times Of India has also quoted Salman’s friend as saying
“It won’t be wrong to say that Salman has virtually directed the entire film. Those close to him have advised him to take credit as co-director. To be honest, that is the least Salman can do considering his contribution,” unveiled the source.
Now we come to the conclusion that Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan has been Helmed by Fahad Samji, undoubtedly but Salman Khan’s contribution is more into the film in comparison to what he usually contributes.

TU JHOOTHI MAIN MAKKAAR’ REVIEW
‘TU JHOOTHI MAIN MAKKAAR’
By
KOMAL NAHTA
T-Series Films and Luv Films’ Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar (UA) is a romcom and a family drama. Mickey (Ranbir Kapoor) is a Romeo. He lives with his mother (Dimple Kapadia), father (Boney Kapoor), paternal grandmother (Jatinder Kaur), sister (Hasleen Kaur), brother-in-law (Amber Rana) and niece Sweetu (Inayat Verma). Mickey’s bosom pal is Dabas (Anubhav Singh Bassi). Mickey meets a bold girl, Tinni (Shraddha Kapoor), and falls head over heels in love with her. The two get into a relationship, but cracks soon develop and the two drift apart. They come face-to-face after a fairly long period. Will the jhoothi and the makkaar kiss and make up or is their relationship beyond repair?
The above is only the basic plot line. The characters of Mickey and Tinni are not being explained in more detail here as that would be a spoiler. Suffice it to say that the drama has been written as a romantic comedy but the family plays an integral part of the romcom. When the real family drama begins in the latter part of the second half, the film takes a serious and emotional turn, raising an issue which is very contemporary. That track gives such an important message that the light entertainer becomes a weighty film with a fantastic message too.
Luv Ranjan’s story idea is very novel and the same goes for the story penned by Rahul Mody and Luv Ranjan. The duo’s screenplay is so outstanding that it doesn’t give the audience even a minute to think or a second to get bored. The comedy is so outstanding that the drama progresses seamlessly and smoothly. The viewers laugh almost non-stop till the drama takes a serious and emotional turn in the latter part of the second half. That’s the time the weak-hearted among the audience will shed tears. But the film again takes a comic turn, with the sequence in which Mickey’s family heads to the airport, being a laugh riot. It wouldn’t be wrong to say that the screenplay is so flawless that the film can be used as a textbook on how to write an effective screenplay. What, perhaps, will give the film a long run at the box-office is that by the time it comes to an end, every female in the audience will have fallen in love with Mickey: every girl of marriageable age will dream of a husband like Mickey, every mother-in-law-to-be will hope that her son-in-law turns out to be like Mickey, every mother will pray for a son like Mickey, and every sister will want her brother to be like Mickey.
Rahul Mody and Luv Ranjan’s dialogues are simply marvellous. The comic dialogues evoke laughter in every scene while the emotional and dramatic ones are very weighty and touch the heart a great deal.
Ranbir Kapoor endears himself to the audience right from the time he comes on the screen for the first time. He performs so brilliantly that it would appear that he was born to play this role. In the scene in which he breaks down in front of his family, the viewers would yearn to give him a bear hug and cry with him. His dances are grace personified. Shraddha Kapoor looks ravishing in costumes which do justice to her sexy figure. She acts with such confidence that this film will take her to a different league. Her dances are beautiful. Anubhav Singh Bassi (as Mickey’s friend, Dabas) makes a phenomenal debut. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that he makes the audience laugh in every scene in which he delivers a dialogue. His debut will win him millions of fans and will become a memorable performance. Dimple Kapadia springs a fantastic surprise with a mind-blowing performance as a loud Punjaban. Jatinder Kaur is oh-so-endearing as Mickey’s paternal grandmother. Inayat Verma proves to be a darling as Mickey’s little niece, Sweetu. Her dialogues evoke a lot of laughter. Boney Kapoor entertains very well in the climax sequence. Hasleen Kaur stands her own as Mickey’s sister. Monica Chaudhary has her moments as Dabas’ girlfriend/wife, Kinchi. In a friendly appearance, Kartik Aaryan will endear himself to his millions of fans. The audience will not be able to stop laughing in the entire sequence in which he appears. Nushrat Bharucha is also wonderful in a friendly appearance. Rajesh Jais (as Tinni’s father), Ayesha Raza Mishra (as Tinni’s mother), Rahul Vora (as Tinni’s paternal uncle), Renuka Sharma (as Tinni’s paternal aunt), P.K. Kapoor (as Tinni’s grandfather), and Amber Rana (as Mickey’s brother-in-law) lend decent support in roles that give them limited scope.
Luv Ranjan’s direction is remarkable. He proves yet again that when it comes to films about human relationships, he is second to none. In fact, with this film, he proves that there is not even a close second. He seems to understand the public pulse so well that he knows what the public wants, at what stage and in what measure, and serves them accordingly. Pritam’s music is fantastic. The Tere pyar mein song is a super-hit already. The O Bedardeya song will soon become a super-hit. The other songs are very entertaining. Song picturisations (all, except one, by Bosco-Caesar; Show me the thumka song by Ganesh Acharya) are lovely. Hitesh Sonik’s background music is simply outstanding. Santhana Krishnan Ravichandran’s cinematography is first-rate. Production designing (by Shashank Tere, Dipankar Dasgupta and Manini Mishra) is superb. Editing (by Akiv Ali and Chetan M. Solanki) is super-sharp.
On the whole, Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar is a super-blockbuster. There’s just no stopping the film at the ticket windows. The film also has tremendous repeat value because of the content and the music.
To be released today (8-3-’23) at Regal (daily 4 shows), Inox (daily 17 shows) and other cinemas of Bombay thru Yash Raj Film Distributors. Publicity: excellent. Opening: expected to be very good (in spite of being adversely affected due to the Holi holiday in some states having been exhausted on 7-3-’23 instead of today). …….Also released all over. Opening is expected to be very good everywhere.

Ranbir Kapoor is unarguably one of the top stars of the Indian Film Industry aka Bollywood, the very handsome and extremely talented star carries all the qualities of a superstar. Ranbir Kapoor has always been tagged as the “Next Superstar” by the media and film lovers. Ranbir is capable of pulling audiences to the theatres, he has proved this many times before, now Tu Jhooti Mai Makkar has taken a good start. Ranbir is a gifted actor, why not as he is the son of Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh Kapoor. Ranbir has performed marvellously in films like Barfi, Sanju and now in Tu Jhoothi Mai Makkaar.
Bollywood Reporter/www.bollywoodreporters.com asked Ranbir Kapoor, ” Do you consider yourself a Superstar?” Ranbir said, “No, not yet, you tell me- Am I ? I know that I am doing my job with passion and trying to deliver the best it’s your and the audience’s job to decide what I deserve… box-office tells the exact status-who and what you are upto ?”
I said, “Ok, then Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan have been ruling at the box-office since long, do you consider yourself as the next Superstar ?” Ranbir Kapoor replied, ” Yes, they are ruling, but let me tell you, an actor will be either a superstar or not and I don’t believe in the term ‘Next Superstar’.”
Ranbir took a pause and continued, ” I didn’t like doing films just for the sake of money I accept projects with potential values, they must be interesting with some new ingredients and Tu Jhoothi Mai Makkaar is such a film, it’s interesting and entertaining for me and for the audience as well.”

One of the finest actors of the Indian Film Industry Ranbir Kapoor is a perfect gentleman.
Since he married to Alia Bhatt people saw him as a loyal husband, after becoming a father he is seen in the Incarnation of a loving father, he is a caring and very emotional man as well, his father Rishi Kapoor was a strict father, he never accepted excuses and use to scold his son if he did something wrong, but Ranbir never dared to speak loud infront of his father, then we saw him as an obedient son, actually Ranbir Kapoor is an Ideal human being.
Once a journalist asked Rishi Kapoor, ” Now Ranbir is a fully grown up man do you enjoy like friends now ?”
on this Rishi Kapoor replied, ” I am totally against
to the concept of father-son friendship.”
Rishi Kapoor further said, ” Ranbir is my Son and I am his father, we enjoy the bond of father and son and we aren’t friends.”
Rishi Kapoor continued, ” In our culture we are taught to respect our Parents like Father Mother and not dost-yaar, there is a wall amid Ranbir and I and this should continue.”
And Ranbir obeyed the instructions of his father with respect.
When Bramhastra was in the making and It was released in September 2022, it took several years to complete the movie and the movie fetched quite well at the box-office. In the film Ranbir and Alia worked together for the first time. While speaking to journalists, Ranbir unveiled, ” I was working on Brahmastra and Shamshera when dad was going through his cancer treatment and when I watch Brahmastra now, there are many memories related to the film, also, there are certain scenes I see and I reminisce those heartfelt moments… ‘ Aah ! at this time, dad was having chemotherapy or he was on a ventilator…I use to perform both the duties by being beside him in the hospital as a son and shooting the movies as an actor

Kapil Sharma was trolled brutally by the netizens as they saw and heard an adult joke cracked by him on his popular Show.
Ranbir Kapoor and Anubhav Singh Bassi were there to promote the film TJMM, Ranbir Kapoor and the audience encountered a double-meaning joke that was too much for the family show. In a show sketch, a reference to the Sawariya movie was made when an artist mistakenly said, “Mai to Sawariya film me inka tauliya …..**** dekhkar na samajh gayi thi” while talking about his new fatherhood.
the joke landed abruptly, the host Kapil Sharma corrected her. He says, “**** tauliya me nahi, inko tauliya me dekh kar”, which made everyone laugh on the set.
Really it was too much and it should have been deleted at the editing table. Kapil sharma was brutally trolled by the netizens after watching that adult joke.
Be careful Kapil for your future performances, and don’t repeat this again as your show is a family entertainer and not an adult Ott show.

Hurdles over Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan release in Bangladesh
Hurdles over Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan release in Bangladesh
By
RUBY ZAIDI
It was announced globally that Shahrukh Khan | SRK’s Pathaan will release on February, 24 but due to certain obstacles the movie wasn’t released. Bangladesh Motion Picture Exhibitors’ Association has now Warned the Government that they would shut down the Cinema halls one by one, if “Pathaan” is not allowed to be released sooner.
“We have our backs against the wall”, said the association’s general secretary, Awlad Hossain in a press conference in the capital. “Even after we got a green signal from the ministry, there was not written permission to release the movie. If this goes on, you will see that the cinema halls will shut down one by one.”
A lot of drama is going on in Bangladesh for the written permission for the release of Shah Rukh Khan starrer historic blockbuster “Pathaan”, to be released in Bangladesh. Even SRK himself acknowledged the release in a tweet.
Following the news, it was said that due to the month of February being International Mother Language Day and a sensitive one for cultural values, the release would be postponed.
While many in the media, including the cast and crew of recently released Bangla film “Ora 7 Jon” publicly protested against the ‘sudden’ release of the film, hall owners around the country were eager to see the landmark film launch, which could potentially revive their business and even encourage others to invest in the film trade.
In a letter addressed to the Ministry of Information, Bangladesh Motion Picture Exhibitors’ Association requested that the release of “Pathaan” be implemented soon, as no film after “Hawa” and “Poran” last year had made decent revenue for them.
Pathaan will release in Bangladesh sooner this is definite, as the association isn’t leaving any stone unturned to kick off the Hurdles.

Only two days are left to the release of Tu Jhoothi Mai Makkaar so it’s obvious that the star of the movie Ranbir Singh is in headlines. The team of TJMM isn’t leaving any stone unturned in the promotion of their film, Ranbir Kapoor is roaming all over the country to promote his upcoming film TJMM. When journalists asks actors, ” Are you under box office pressure as your film is releasing ?” they often reply, ” My job as an actor is done and now rest is upto the audience and the directors, producers.” Bollywood Reporter /www.bollywoodreporters.com asked Ranbir, ” What do you feel about actors not taking the onus of flops ?” Ranbir replied, “I think actors get a lot of credit for the success of a film so it is only fair that they get the hit backs of the failure, it is their choice at the end of it because I can’t deny my responsibilities by saying I have done justice to my character and for the rest I am least responsible. I also believe as a person working in the films that it is all about the films – If the film is good everything is good and if the film is bad everything is bad.”
After a pause he spoke, “But yes, in my career, when I was working on Bombay Velvet , I thought it is my best performance, and I have been acting so well, it is fabulous, but the film did not work, then performance does not stand out either. You are as good as your film. If actors have this understanding, they will have lesser of an ego and they will work towards the story of the film.”
On a lighter not I asked him, ” How’s your baby doing ?”
Ranbir smiled and said, ” Raha is doing good, I miss heaven when I am out of town. I am a caring father, I have become expert in patting her back gently, I often change dypers”

Versatile actor and a nice human being Anupam Kher praised Deepika Padukone for being one of the presenters at the Oscars, Anupam Kher took to his social media handles and shared an old photograph of one of the top most actresses of the Indian Film Industry Deepika Padukone from her early days at the Anupam’s acting institute, he penned, “Dearest @deepikapadukone! Congratulations on being one of the presenters at this year’s Oscar ceremony ! Every time you climb one step higher on the ladder of success, we at @actorprepares feel proud to have been part of your journey. On a personal note as your teacher I always knew sky is not the limit. You will go beyond !! Love and blessings always ! Congratulations for Pathan too ! Jai Ho !”
Like Anupam Kher Kashmir File fame Director Vivek Agnihotri has also praised and lauded Deepika on his social media handles for being the presenter at the Oscars, but he was trolled by many of the netizens as Vivek earlier had written against the Besharm song from the movie Pathaan. Netizens thought “Why this U turn?”
Vivek tried to clarify, he penned, “Well… in a new world ‘criticising someone when you disagree and appreciating when you like their act’ is called double standard. I thought it’s called ‘fairness’.

RAPE CONVICTION
HARVEY WEINSTEIN SENTENCED TO 16 YEARS IN LA RAPE CONVICTION

Hollywood studio czar Harvey Weinstein, who came to epitomise a culture of sexual misconduct by powerful men in the US film industry, was on February 23 sentenced to 16 years in prison for the 2013 rape of an actress in Los Angeles. The sentence will run consecutively to the 23-year prison term he is already serving for a sexual misconduct conviction in New York.
It is, therefore, very likely that the Oscar-winning ex-producer will spend the rest of his life behind bars. The proceeding unfolded in the same LA courtroom where a jury earlier found Weinstein guilty of rape, forcible oral copulation and sexual penetration by a foreign object.

What a shame for Akshay Kumar , Selfiee is amongst the biggest flops of the decade
By
Danial Zaidi
Superstar Akshay Kumar starrer ‘Selfiee’ opened to shocking collections and with such a poor numbers, there was no chance of a comeback. Collections on Saturday improved a bit but it was far from satisfactory and then the very poor collections on Sunday has sealed the fate of the film.
Film collected poor 2.55 cr nett on Friday and 3.80 cr nett on Saturday with 40-45% jump. But then with flat Sunday took it to poor 10.30 cr nett weekend. Film dropped further on Monday by 50%!from Friday and collected 1.25 cr nett.
Film has collected 11.55 cr nett in 4- days and will struggle to cross 20 cr nett lifetime from here which is a shame for a film of this size. Although Akshay has tried to makeover all the mistakes to impress the citizens of the country, he started writing his social media posts in Hindi, he also announced that he has applied for the cancellation of his Canadian nationality,What he hasn’t done is selecting good films. Now, filmgoers want a great film from him. A question mark has been put in front of his star status as the disaster of Selfiee and his half a dozen flops recently has put his stardom in doubt.
Is he still a Star ? Or his stardom is just a PR ?
But Bollywood Reporter/www.bollywoodreporter.com still believe that the star will bounce back.
All the best #AkshayKumar

Superstar Akshay Kumar has recently interacted with the journalists and he spoke about the bend in his career, he starts with a smile and pronounced, ” It’s just a bend and not the end of my career.”
The disastrous box-office performance of his film ‘Selfiee’ has shocked the trade as Akshay is considered as one of the biggest stars of the Indian Film Industry. Selfiee isn’t such a bad film, previews were also not bad but the film bombed at the box-office. The film has not been able to draw audiences to the cinemas. But where were the fans, followers, well wishers of Akshay Kumar? Although film making is a team work but Akshay Kumar took the responsibility of the failure of his movies, He confess and says, ” If my movies are failing to perform well at the box office, it is my responsibility as the lead actor.”
The last successful box office film featuring the superstar Akshay Kumar was the 2021 film ‘Sooryavanshi’, which was a part of Rohit Shetty’s ‘cop universe’. The movie starred Akshay opposite Katrina Kaif and also featuring Ajay Devgn and Ranveer Singh in friendly appearances.
Akshay, has been facing a series of flops and this isn’t happening for the first time, he has experienced such situations twice before as well. He reminds the journalists when he had 16 back to back flops, and one more bad time when he had eight films bombed in a row.
Akshay Kumar recalls, “This is not happening to me for the first time. In my career, I have had 16 consecutive flops at a time. There was a time when I had eight films in a row that did not work. Now, once again there is a bend in my career, my many films in a row did not work. I take the responsibility for the failures.”
He further says, “The audience has changed and now I understand that I too should change, I have learnt a lesson that you need to dismantle yourself. You have to start again because the audience requires you to see something else. During covid lockdowns audiences got busy watching movies from east to west and north to south of the Globe, they got the exposure to the World Cinema, now their expectations have increased.”
Akshay Kumar said, ” From this very day I will be working even harder and will try to give better movies to the filmgoers.”

After 46.65 cr nett in 3rd week, this is only 70% drop which is fantastic considering two big releases last week and after such massive total in previous 3 weeks.
Film will cross its last target of 511 cr nett of ‘Baahubali 2’ by end of 6th weekend if not 5th week. Film needs 8.90 cr nett and out of which 6 cr nett minimum should be done in 5th week.

Shehzada isn’t improving at the Box-office windows, it’s almost a week gone and now the chances are of it’s exit from the theaters within few days, probably.
Feeling very sorry for Kartik Aaryan and the team of Shehzada, it failed miserably to bring audience at the box office. At box-office Kartik Aaryan and Kirti Sanon starrer film collected Rs. 1.60 crores approximately on its sixth day. The film did not earned a respectable amount even on it’s opening day, trade and fans are disappointed.
This is a major setback for a star, whose previous release, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, was a success. Now, his movie Shehzada received absolutely no advantage from his past image,even the ‘Buy-One-Get-One-Free ticket’ promotion didn’t bring audience, it’s really shocking for the well wishers and fans of Kartik Aryan. Whether Shehzada will be shown the following week or not isn’t clear.
Shehzada, from the day one got negative reviews from the public and critics. Kartik Aaryan and Kriti Sanon play the leads in the movie, Shehzada is an official remake of Allu Arjun’s Telugu blockbuster Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo. Paresh Rawal, Manisha Koirala, Ronit Roy, Rajpal Yadav, Ankur Rathee, and Sunny Hinduja have played the supporting cast, the movie is produced by T-Series and Kartik Aaryan.

When Shamita Shetty kissed lips to lips
When Shamita Shetty kissed lips to lips
By
Danial Zaidi
Those were the days when Indian Film Industry wasn’t bold enough and lips to lips kisses were filmed very rarely, even film actors weren’t comfortable for such type of a scene.Talkng to a journalist, actress Shamita Shetty unveiled how her family reacted after watching her lips to lips kiss, she said, ” O my Ghosh, I can’t forget the reaction of my father as he stopped talking to me after I kissed my co-actor Uday Chopra in the film Mohabbatein,I recall that scary reactions of my family members, no one was happy, my father stopped speaking to me because of that one kiss. He was avoiding eye to eye contact and he didn’t speak to me for almost a month. I was so upset as the scene was the demand of the script and I was told to do that and like any other sincere and devoted professional I performed that shot, but he didn’t speak to me, I was so close to my father, infact we both were hurt.
But as the time passes by, all of this became so common in our industry. Finally, Dad understood, but since then I have never repeated that shot and I have become more cautious while shooting intimate scenes.”
Zee Studios and Namah Pictures’ Lost (UA) is a thriller
.
Zee Studios and Namah Pictures’ Lost (UA) is a thriller. Ishan (Tushar Pandey) does street plays. He is in love with Ankita Chauhan (Pia Bajpaiee). One day, he goes missing. Soon, the police declare that he has Maoist links. His family comprising his mother (Sohag Sen), married sister, Namita (Honey Jain), and brother-in-law, Aman (Akshay Kapoor), can’t believe that he could align himself to the Maoist movement. A crime reporter, Vidhi Sahni (Yami Gautam Dhar), investigates the story of the disappearance. According to her sources, politician Varman (Rahul Khanna) is behind Ishan’s disappearance. Has Ishan been killed?
Shyamal Sengupta and Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury have penned a fairly good story but there are some minus points too. For one, the audience does not get invested in Ishan because there’s very little one knows about him when he disappears. This may have worked had the character of Ishan been played by a top star, but since that’s not the case, the writers ought to have established the character of Ishan much more to make the audience feel even more for the missing Ishan. Also, the screenplay, penned by Shyamal Sengupta, moves on a single track and, therefore, becomes boring at places. What’s more, the screenplay appears too stretched and slow-paced also. Ritesh Shah’s dialogues are quite nice.
Yami Gautam Dhar performs well in the role of Vidhi Sahni. Pankaj Kapur is good as her grandfather. Rahul Khanna looks sauve and plays the ruthless yet cool politician in style. Tushar Pandey is natural in a role which gives him limited footage as Ishan. Pia Bajpaiee leaves a fine mark with her nuanced performance in the role of Ankita Chauhan. Neil Bhoopalam is alright as Vidhi’s boyfriend, Jeet. Honey Jain is very appealing as Ishan’s sister, Namita. Akshay Kapoor also delivers a lovely performance as Ishan’s brother-in-law, Aman. Kaushik Sen makes a mark as Rana. Arindam Sil has his moments as police officer Prabir Ghoshal. Suman Mukhopadhyay performs ably as Kunal. Sohag Sen appears genuine as Ishan’s distraught mother. Anubha Fatehpuria and Vinay Sharma lend good support as Vidhi’s parents. Jogi Mallang (as Zia) is fine. Ashok Mehra (as Umashankar Mukherjee), Abrar Zahoor Dhar (as Ruhel Dabraki), Samiul Alam (as Nayeem), Amitabh Acharya (as senior police inspector Palat), Biswabijoy Dutta Choudhury (as the duty officer at the police station), Yogesh Bhardwaj (as Thakur), Debopriyo Mukherjee (as Shakeel), Pradeep Guhathakurta (as the officer at the special branch), Madhurima Goswami (as Aanaya), Kartikey Tripathi (as Joy), Moumita Pandit (as Joy’s partner), Soumitra Gupta (as the marriage registrar officer) and the rest provide lovely support.
Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury’s direction is good but it caters to the class audience only. Shantanu Moitra’s music goes very well with the mood of the film. The ‘Roshni’ song is pretty appealing. The other songs are also melodious. Swanand Kirkire’s lyrics are weighty. Shantanu Moitra’s background music is impactful. Cinematography (by Avik Mukhopadhyay) is very nice. Amar Shetty’s action and stunt scenes are natural. Navin Kenkre’s production designing and Tapash Sarkar’s art direction are lovely. Bodhaditya Banerjee’s editing is reasonably sharp but could’ve been sharper.
On the whole, Lost is a fair entertainer for those who like thrillers. But it is a film meant for the classes only. It is good that it has been premiered on a streaming platform because it would’ve faced an uphill task at the box-office had it been released theatrically.
Released on 16-2-’23 on Zee5.
The Kapil Sharma show is unlucky for film promotions : Kamaal R Khan
The Kapil Sharma show is unlucky for film promotions : Kamaal R Khan
By
RUBY ZAIDI
Kamaal R Khan aka KRK is just a male version of Rakhi Sawant as far as creating cheep drama is concerned, just to stay in limelight in bollywood he can go to any extent though Rakhi is an incredible dancer and a good actress but KRK is a good for nothing fellow.
Perhaps, he could entertain you with his foolish posts and videos he shares on his social media handles.Talking about his latest foolish tweet- he has lauded Akshay Kumar for not going to promote his upcoming movie Selfiee at The Kapil Sharma Show by calling it a ‘big panauti’.
As we all know, Akshay Kumar never misses The Kapil Sharma Show to promote his movies. But this time, he has left fans wondering by not promoting Selfiee at the popular comedy show and it’s really strange that the actor hasn’t made an appearance on the show yet As there’s still a week to go, we might see him promoting his film on the show.
Raj Mehta’s Selfiee also stars Emraan Hashmi, Nushrratt Bharuccha and Diana Penty in key roles. It is scheduled to release on 24th February.
T-Series Films, Allu Entertainment, Haarika & Hassine Creations and Ramara Films’
T-Series Films, Allu Entertainment, Haarika & Hassine Creations and Ramara Films’ Shehzada (UA) is a film about mixed identities. Valmiki (Paresh Rawal), who works for Randeep Nanda (Ronit Roy), exchanges his new-born child with his employer’s new-born. As a result, Valmiki’s son grows up like a prince as the son of industrial magnate Randeep Nanda and wife Yashu Nanda (Manisha Koirala) whereas Randeep and Yashu’s son is brought up by Valmiki as a middle-class boy. While Randeep Nanda’s biological son is named Bantu, the son of Valmiki is christened Raj Nanda. What happens when, years later, Bantu (Kartik Aaryan) gets to know the truth about his real identity?
The film is an official remake of Telugu film Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo. The original story and screenplay are written by Trivikram while the adapted screenplay for the Hindi remake is penned by Rohit Dhawan. The story is of the kind which went out of fashion many years ago. The adapted screenplay is so full of holes that the drama completely fails to engage the viewers. If the comedy falls flat on its face most of the times, the emotions touch the heart at barely one or two places. The biggest minus point, perhaps, is that the film looks like a film rather than a seamless drama unfolding in front of the audience.
There are so many defects in the screenplay that one wonders how anyone could write it. Sarang (Sunny Hinduja) is a sworn enemy of Randeep Nanda because the latter had filed a complaint against Sarang for smuggling contraband in toys, using his transportation tools. Sarang wants Nanda to withdraw his complaint so that he can restart his business. The writer has not been able to explain how the withdrawal of the complaint would be enough because there must have been a police case and a court case after the contraband was seized. There is a scene in which Randeep Nanda is grievously injured by Sarang in the former’s office. Bantu and his girlfriend, Samara (Kriti Sanon), rush Nanda to hospital but, believe it or not, the office staff is shown to do absolutely nothing! What’s more, once they reach the hospital, Samara excuses herself so that she can inform Nanda’s family over the telephone. Why? Was the office staff sleeping? Bantu is livid and emotional when he gets to know that he had been exchanged as a new-born. Would you believe that he thrashes out the issue with his guardian, Valmiki, on the street!?! What’s worse is that in this very sequence where the two are involved in a heated exchange words, Bantu starts doing comedy after a while! The scene when Randeep Nanda calls Bantu to thank him for having saved his life is so weird that it makes one wonder whether anybody in today’s time and age would speak the way Nanda speaks to Bantu. Again, there’s a scene in which Bantu gives Raj Nanda (Ankur Rathee), the biological son of Valmiki, a piece of his mind. That scene is so heavily inspired by the iconic supersonic-speed scene from Kartik Aaryan’s Pyaar Ka Punchnama that it looks silly, more so because it is not a patch on the earlier scene. Another big minus point is that the swag and attitude required in the hero is completely missing. The character of Bantu without swag is lacklustre. The scene in which Randeep Nanda asks for his wife’s forgiveness is half-baked. Hussain Dalal’s dialogues are ordinary except at a few places. The kind of dialogues the doctor (Vipul Goyal) mouths in Nandas’ bungalow don’t suit him. The iconic dialogue of Amitabh Bachchan from Pink about ‘no’ meaning ‘no’ has been used in a lighter vein in a scene in the film but it has zero impact. In the scene in which Bantu chides Raj Nanda, he says something to the effect that except for his maternal grandfather’s surname (Jindal), Raj, unfortunately, doesn’t have any other qualities of his grandfather. Pray, if one goes by tradition, since when have people started ‘inheriting’ their maternal grandfather’s surname? If one understands correctly, traditionally speaking, it is the surname of the paternal side which is ‘bequeathed’ generation after generation. If it was otherwise in the case of Raj Nanda (which it wasn’t), it ought to have been specified. However, for the ordinary dialogues, one would also blame the terribly weak screenplay, besides the dialogue writer.
Kartik Aaryan does a fairly good job but he is not extraordinary, which is what was needed. Also, as said above, his character doesn’t hold much water without swag and attitude. Kriti Sanon has quite an inconsequential role. As Samara, she looks very beautiful, though. Manisha Koirala is okay as Yashu Nanda. Ronit Roy is quite alright in the role of Randeep Nanda. Paresh Rawal does a fine job as Valmiki but there’s nothing extraordinary about his acting. Sachin Khedekar is quite good as Aditya Jindal, father-in-law of Randeep Nanda, but he could’ve been better. Ankur Rathee acts quite well but the character of Raj Nanda, that he plays, is too weird to be true. Sunny Hinduja is so-so as Sarang. Rajpal Yadav lends a touch of comedy in the single scene in which he appears as police inspector Yadav. Sharvari Lohokare impresses as nurse Sulochana. Ashwin Mushran (as Kailash Jindal), Ali Asgar (as Arun) and Shalini Kapoor (as Aarti Jindal) hardly have anything concrete to do. Kunal Vijaykar (as Cadbury butler) has been hopelessly wasted. Incidentally, he doubles up as a delivery boy although Randeep Nanda lives in a palatial house and would be expected to have a battery of house helps. Debattama Saha (as Bantu’s sister, Nisha) is okay but her track is cut short abruptly. Rakesh Bedi is natural as Samara’s father. Vipul Goyal makes his presence felt as the doctor. Sangram Rai (as Sarang’s man), Aishwarya Narkar (as Valmiki’s wife), Rashul Tandon (as the port worker), Sukriti Chaturvedi (as Simran), Faisal Rasheed (as Harmeet) and Vinay Rana (as Vikrant) lend decent support. Others are average.
Rohit Dhawan’s direction is dull. He seems to be confused about whether he wanted to make a comedy or a family fare. Resultantly, the film is neither here nor there. Pritam Chakraborty’s music is appealing but there is not a single song which is a chartbuster. Lyrics (by Kumaar, Mayur Puri, Shloke Lal and I.P. Singh) are ordinary. Song picturisations (by Bosco-Caesar and Ganesh Acharya) look like a job hurriedly done. A couple of song picturisations are good but not phenomenal. The picturisation of the Diwali song is so childish that the audience gets to know that there will soon be a song the moment they see about 15 to 20 girls — who are guests at the Diwali party — dressed in similar outfits! Julius Packiam’s background music is quite alright. Sanjay F. Gupta’s cinematography and Sudeep Chatterjee’s additional cinematography is nice. Anl Arasu’s action and stunt scenes are fairly appealing. Suresh Selvarajan’s production designing is okay. Ritesh Soni’s editing ought to have been sharper.
On the whole, Shehzada is a dull fare with glaring defects in the screenplay. It will get the audience’s thumbs down.
Released on 17-2-’23 at Inox (daily 10 shows) and other cinemas of Bombay thru AA Films. Publicity: quantitatively good, but qualitatively weak. Opening: below the mark. …….Also released all over. Opening was not up to the mark at most of the places.

Guys, Film ‘Dhoom’ Starring Abhishek Bachchan, John Abraham and Uday Chopra was a huge box office hit that also included Esha Deol and Rima Sen in important roles. Do you know that YRF had more budget for bikes than its lead stars Abhishek Bachchan and Uday Chopra ?
Yep, you read it correctly, that’s right ! Now on The Romantics of Netflix, producer Aditya Chopra has unvealed that the price of hot wheels in the films was much higher than the actors.
Aditya Chopra said, “There were three pillars of Hindi films like everybody used to say and that you can’t do without, which is drama, emotion and romance. I said I am going to remove these three pillars and see what happens (laughs)! With Dhoom, I wanted to make a film where I wanted to combine Michael Bay and Manmohan Desai.”
After a pause he continued,
“In Dhoom, I spent more money on bikes than on Abhishek Bachchan, John Abraham, Uday Chopra !” unveiled the film maker.
The Romantics is a must watch, it’s full of great people and their great experiences while making immortal movies.
We appreciate the makers of The Romantics
My Congratulations to all the crew members of the web series The Romantics.

Bigg Boss 16 winner MC Stan have won millions of hearts with his qualities on Bigg Boss 16. Even before the show, MCStan enjoyed a huge fan following that convert into huge votes in his support. The rapper has now managed to step ahead to the former skipper Virat Kohli and previous Bigg Boss winners in terms of popularity on social media.
MC Stan’s popularity post Bigg Boss 16 is as high as the moon in the sky. The most popular rapper surprised everyone by defeating Shiv Thakare at the finale night and lifting the trophy. But that wasn’t it. His winning post with Salman Khan has broken records of sorts.
Post his victory, MC Stan’s post with Salman Khan, expressing his gratitude to fans, has got record breaking likes and comments. It has over 69,52,351 likes and 1,47,545 comments, the highest ever received by any Bigg Boss winner so far.
Even popular ones like Tejasswi Prakash and Sidharth Shukla remain far behind.
Stan had captioned the post as, “WE CREATED HISTORY 🏆 STAYED REAL THROUGHOUT , REPPED HIPHOP ON NATIONAL TV 🇮🇳 Ammi ka Sapna poora hogaya 🥹💕 & trophy P-town aagayi ♥️🙅🏽♂️ Jis jis ne pyar dikhaya sabko Haq hai 🙏 ending tak Stan 🏃”
Not just previous Bigg Boss winners, a netizen also compared his popularity to Virat Kohli’s by sharing a screenshot where the former skipper has received way less likes and comments than Stan on his post.
Virat Kohli is considered to be quite a favourite on social media and enjoys a huge fan following, much more than MC Stan but for now the story is different.
Guys, that’s why the reality show is considered as the number 1 reality show hosted by the biggest Superstar of the continent Salman Khan .

DIRECTOR VIJAY GUTTE, DAD BOOKED IN RS. 409 CRORE FRAUD CASE | 11 February, 2023
By
KOMAL NAHTA
Film director Vijay Gutte, who had made The Accidental Prime Minister, and his father, MLA Ratnakar Gutte, have been booked by the CBI in a Rs. 409 crore bank loan fraud case. Their Gangakhed sugar mill has also been named in the case filed. Several premises of the Guttes were searched by the CBI in different parts of Maharashtra in connection with the case.
The Gutte family allegedly defrauded UCO Bank-led consortium of six banks by availing of credit facilities. It is alleged that Gangakhed Sugar and Energy Ltd. had taken credit facilities of Rs. 577 crore between 2008 and 2015 from the consortium of banks to establish Integrated Cane Processing Plant (ICPP) with manufacturing facilities of sugar, distillery and rower. Ratnakar Gutte mortgaged 196 acres of land at Parbhani, besides other properties, collectively valued at Rs. 324 crore. Personal guarantee of Gutte family members worth Rs. 450 crore was also given to the banks.
It is alleged that the Gutte family diverted the loan amount for other purposes through fictitious transactions and thereby defaulted in the loan repayment to the bank so that the loan account ultimately turned NPA.
In 2022, the Enforcement Directorate had taken possession of Gangakhed Sugar mill along with several land parcels spread over 40 hectares, which they had attached in a money laundering case they are still probing against Gutte. The ED case was based on a cheating FIR.

One of the finest actors Manoj Bajpayee spoke gently to a question asked by a journalist, ” Are you satisfied with your present status of a star ?” Manoj Bajpayee smiled and replied very gently, “Yes, If not satisfied even though I am happy with my present situation as an actor and mind it I am not enjoying stardom as I am not a superstar or a star.” ” Then what’s a superstar and stardom ?”Manoj gave examples of actors Salman khan King of Bollywood , Shahrukh Khan | SRK , #AmitabhBachchan . Manoj said, “The audience respects me because of my work but their reaction to Salman and Shah Rukh are very different.”
He further spoke,
“Have you not seen their craze in public ?” After asking me he continued, ” Huge crowd gathers outside Amitabh Bachchan’s house every Sunday as he gives his fans a glimpse of himself. Shah Rukh Khan recently has been greeting his fans outside his home, Mannat, Salman Khan also appears on the balcony of his Galaxy Apartment on his birthdays and special occasions. On watching him, the fans scream, cheer, and wave, actually this is stardom and these three Superstars enjoy their stardom and none of us.”
The great actor Manoj Bajpayee continued, “Do you know what a Superstar is? A Superstar is, when passing by Amitabh Bachchan’s house I see a traffic jam on the road. At the age of 80, a huge crowd comes to see him on Sunday. Often,
fans gathered in front of Salman Khan’s house, Police force has to control them, lathi charge has to be done on thousands of his crazy fans. Salman Khan just comes to his balcony and waves. Shah Rukh Khan comes and stands on his balcony. So, they enjoy their stardoms.”
After a pause Manoj said with a smile, “When it comes to us, the audience looks at us with respect. ‘You work really well, we watch a lot of your movies’. But the moment Salman, Shah Rukh comes they scream, shout. We cater to our audience very differently and the reaction comes in accordance with that.”
Bollywood Reporter /www.bollywoodreporters.com asks, ” Are you not jealous of them ?”
He replied, ” Oh no, never, infact I feel proud of them, their films are creating history at the box-office, single film earning 1000 crores, it’s not easy to collect such a huge amount, long live our Indian Film Industry. ”
Whatever Manoj Bajpayee has to say but no one can deny his calibre of a genius actor that he has proved in the past with many of his films, he is busy doing quality work, we are proud of him

King Shah Rukh Khan recently won hearts when he conducted an #AskSRK session on his Twitter platform for 15 minutes every day where netizens used to ask questions to him During one of a such sessions a fan asked him about the earnings of his movie Pathaan. Shahrukh Khan | SRK reacted in his favourite style, he pronounced, “5000 crores Pyaar. 3000 crore Appreciation. 3250 crores hugs….2 Billion smiles and still counting. Tera accountant kya bata raha hai??”
Shah Rukh Khan is a genius he knows how to share love with his fans.
Talking about his movie Pathaan, it has crossed the box-office collection of Bahubali 2 in the country and has collected nearly 1000 crores World wide and it’s still going good, let’s see when it stops. However, from this Friday Kartik Aryan’s Shahzada, a nicely made movie is releasing and many screens will be shared by it, we are optimistic about the movie’s success as the fragrance of the positive Vibes are spread all over.
Good luck Kartik Aryan !
Update- advance booking of Shahzada:
Shehzada is seeing a wide release on 3000 plus screens across the country, though a lot of them in the national chains would have show-sharing with Ant Man & The Wasp. Despite the clash, there will be enough shows and screens for Shehzada to put up a number on opening day and show sustained growth from thereon. On the show front, it’s expected to be somewhere in the range of 9000 shows a day in India, and the count could go vary as per the final terms of showcasing by Thursday night.
Inox and Cinepolis. Of the 7300 tickets, 4295 are sold in PVR, followed by 1550 in Inox and 1450 in Cinepolis. Shehzada should be looking at a final advance in the range of 30,000 tickets in the three chains and then hope on the sales to escalate on the spot bookings, especially in the tier 2 and 3 centres.

Karan Johar write a post on valentine’s day
Valentines Day for me for many years has been a day I either partied with other singles or then lamented the lack of a relationship or then celebrated my independence and solo status … it’s always been a blend of so many feeling and emotions! But when Roohi and Yash were born I realised my dependency and search for love ended with their arrival into our universe! I celebrate them along with my mother everyday but today is the day to say to all of us parents that we have forever valentines in our children! A paternal love story is the most satisfying, unconditional and exceptionally rewarding! So raise a toast and if no one sends you flowers today send yourself an emoji ! 🌹🌹🌹

Prabhas and Kriti Sanon is getting engaged in Maldives???
A few days back, news came out that rumoured couple Prabhas and Kriti Sanon is getting engaged in Maldives; the actor’s team has finally responded to the rumours.
While talking to ETimes, one of the close associates of Prabhas responded over the news saying they are just friends. “Prabhas and Kriti are just friends. The news about them getting engaged is not true,” stated the associate.
The rumours of Kriti and Prabhas dating sparked during the promotions of film Bheidya. Kriti appeared on show Jhalak Dikhla Ja with Varun Dhawan to promote her film. During a fun banter with Karan Johar at the show, Varun hinted that the Adipursh duo is dating. He said: “Kriti ka naam isiliye nahi tha kyunki Kriti ka naam kisi ke dil me hai. Ek aadmi hai jo Mumbai me nahi hai, vo iss waqt shooting kar raha hai Deepika Padukone ke saath.”
As per NDTV, Kriti Sanon also shared a post on the Instagram clarifying the situation. She wrote: “Rumours are absolutely baseless. Its neither Pyaar, nor PR. Our Bhediya just went a little too wild on a reality show. And his fun banter lead to some Howl-arious rumours. Before some portal announces my wedding date-let me burst your bubble. The rumours are absolutely baseless. “

Mumtaz reminiscing style icon Feroz Khan, the legend
By
RUBY ZAIDI
60’s to the mid 80’s Mumtaz was the Queen of the Indian Film Industry, in an interview she recalls Feroz Khan, she said, “Feroz Khan was an icon, style icon, he was unarguably t
he most handsome man in the industry. So perfect. Aise log dikhte nahin, ek bhi nahi hai. We cant find even one single man like him. I used to wish that I have a BF like him.”
“Were you attracted to him?”
“Yes, all the women were attracted to him but he liked english girls, we shared a different kind of a bond because it is not necessary that two people who are attracted to each other should have an affair. Earlier, he had an Anglo-Indian girlfriend Penni, she was extremely beautiful. Later, there was Sundri (she later married Feroz Khan) in her life. If you are friends with someone, you should know where to draw the line.
Till his last breath, Feroz was the Indian cowboy. His mesmerizing auro was talk of not only India but many other countries as well.
”
According to Mumtaz, who was not only Feroz’s favourite heroine but also a close family friend and later in-law (Mumtaz’s daughter is married to Feroz’s son) remembers him as irresistibly handsome and none was like him.
“There were other handsome heroes, no doubt. But according to me, Feroz Khan was the most handsome. Later Shammi, the handsome man and I fell in love, but Feroz and I remain best friends. Feroz was also a wonderful human being like my three other heroes, Shammi, Sunil Dutt and Dharmendra. Feroz and I were family friends even before we met. His mother, a beautiful woman loved me like her own child because I was beautiful and fair-skinned or so she said, I don’t know,” Mumtaz laughs. I assure her she is indeed both. “Thank you. Feroz’s family had Irani blood just like my family. We were both Syed
Muslims. We hit it off even before we worked together. When did we first work together? It was in 1962. In a film called Main Shaadi Karne Chala. I was only 18 then. And I was not the heroine of the film,” recalls Mumtaz, asserting that she was close not only to Feroz but also to his brothers Sanjay Khan and Sameer Khan.
In fact, I did two films with both the brothers Feroz and Sanjay co-starring as brothers Mela and Upaasna. Both Feroz and Abbas (Sanjay Khan) took really good care of me on the sets… Not that I ever needed taking care of. I was one of the few heroines who went to shot without a chaperone. But if I was shooting with Feroz I knew I would be well looked after.”
more than anything else. I did films with superstars. I did films with newcomers. Amitabh was not a star when I did O.P. Ralhan’s Bandhe Haath with him. I even did a film with Feroz’s youngest brother Sameer, Gomti Ke Kinare, in which he was launched as a hero. When Feroz turned director with Apradh I was most excited. We had a lot of fun shooting that film in Germany. We also shot in Beirut. The song Tum miley pyar se was shot in Beirut. Feroz and I also did Yash Chopra’s Aadmi Aur Insaan. Halaanki main supporting actress thi iss film mein, Saira was the heroine.She was the producer of the movie as well.But my song Zindagi ittefaq hai became very popular. I also liked my other solo song in Aadmi Aur Insaan, Itni jaldi na karo raat ka dil tootega. I can’t forget Feroz Khan neither none of us, as legends never die. Feroz Khan lives in billion hearts.”

With Suhasini and her sis Nandini his nieces, we chatted with him before and during the interval. He remembered my aunt, the humorous nicknames he had for her and fondly recalled many memories of those days. I felt a lot of respect and adulation for him, and so happy to have come full circle. Looking forward to many many more from Kalaimamani Padmashri Padmabhushan Chevalier Dr. Kamalhasan.”

Shahzada’s hit number ‘Munda Sona Hoon Mai’n ‘, the first song from Kartik Aaryan and Kriti Sanon-starrer Shehzada, was released last month, since then it’s being playing allover. The song, which has Kartik and Kriti dancing at a eye soothing location, is composed by Pritam, and crooned by Diljit Dosanjh and Nikhita Gandhi. The song’s beats are groovy, but the cringe-worthy lyrics by Kumaar will make you grimace. However, Bosco Caesar’s wacky dance moves redeem the song. K and K aka

Nawazudding dream house turned into a battle field
Nawazudding dream house turned into a battle field

RUBY ZAIDI
Ace actor Nawazuddin usually Speaks proudly about his dream house, he should as after a long struggle his dreams are turning true. Nawaz spoke to Bollywood Reporter/www.bollywoodreporters.com he said, “I have struggled a lot for years and now when Allah ta’ala has bestowed me with good time then I want to enjoy my share of happiness.”
When we asked about his beautiful house made up of only milky white marbles, he said, ” Yes, I had a dream of making a beautiful house in Mumbai and it’s almost done.”
Nawazuddin further says, ” I
had an exact design of the house in my mind, and I have pursued that way, it has turned out to be a beautiful house.”
After a pause he continued,”Like an architect and a civil Engineer I have stored the design of every inch of the house in my brain, and I haven’t compromised with my vision. If something was built wrongly during my absence, I broke it. There were many demolished walls before the house happened, because I wanted every thing of the house to be the way I had designed it in my mind. Infact the house was built first in my mind and then on the land.I must thank my brother who helped me a lot. During my absence, he supervised the construction.”.Now Nawazuddin’s house is often compared with Shahrukh Khan’s Mannat. When we compared, he said, “Oh no, no, I can’t compare my self with the Badshah of every heart. There is no need to compare the two houses. That is his dream home. This is mine. I’d like you to come to see my home. It is on Yari Road in Andheri.”
And now, the same home has turned into a battle field, where his wife is fighting an ugly property battle with Nawaz’s mother.
So sad, Nawazuddin isn’t happy, he want to finish the ugly battle as soon as possible.

Anupam Kher talks about Kangana and her freedom of speech

RUBY ZAIDI
Versatile actor Anupam Kher is good friends with Kangana Ranaut , the brilliant actress who is also directing him in the upcoming film Emergency. Anupam Kher defended Kangana and her freedom of speech (right to tweet) about any topic of her interest.
Kangana Ranaut, who is quite active on social media, posted her thoughts through her tweet where she stated that India is ‘obsessed with Khans and Muslim actresses.’ Her tweet said, “This country has only and only loved all Khans and at times only and only Khans (Yusuf Khan, Feroz Khan, Sanjay Khan, Amjad Khan, Aamir Khan, Shah Rukh Khan , Salman Khan and many more )…And obsessed over Muslim actresses (Madhubala, Suraiya, Meena Kumari, Wahida Rahman, Nargis, Mumtaz, Zeenat Aman, Parveen Babi and more than hundred others), so it’s very unfair to accuse India of hate and fascism … there is no country like Bharat in the whole world.”
Anupam Kher said while art has its own place in such discussions, Kangana too has a right to freedom of speech– “I think art has its own place, and religion has its own place.
People don’t go to watch the film based on religion, but based on art. You don’t go to mandir, masjid or gurudwara after watching a film. You go because you have faith in your religion. You have all the right to present your faith, but I don’t think anybody decides to say it like that.” said the Anupam. He concluded by praising Kangana Ranaut, ” She is ‘brave’ and should be ‘applauded’.”
Bollywood Reporter/www.bollywoodreporters.com would like to add-
Rightly said Anupam Kher as Kangana Ranaut is a brilliant actress and at the same time she is a brave lady, she never manipulates her wordings.All the best Kangana for your upcoming movie Emergency.”

Once more a twist has occurred in Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s wife Aaliya case
By
RUBY ZAIDI
When Nawazuddin wasn’t doing good in his acting career her wife Aaliya was there to support him, but since the actor’s started doing good in his career the relationship between the two got bad, but recently there were news that now all is well between them then again came a twist amid the actor’s mom and Aaliya Zainab. Advocate of Aaliya Siddiqui, wife of Nawazuddin Siddiqui, has alleged that the actor and his family members haven’t provided ‘food, bed, bathroom to take bath’ to his client in the last week. In a statement, Rizwan Siddiquee said, “Mr Nawazuddin Siddiqui and his family members did everything possible to remove my client Mrs Aaliya Siddiqui from the house. They filed an untenable criminal complaint of trespass against her. Thereafter, through the police they threatened to arrest her and were calling her each day to the police station, after sunset.”
“Whilst, I do not want to directly attribute the actions and the failures of the police department to them, yet the fact remains that no police officer ever came to protect my clients rights, even when her modesty was insulted before the police officers. Not only her relationship with Mr Nawazuddin Siddiqui was questioned before the police officer, but even the legitimacy of the minor son was questioned. Yet the police officer did not act on the written complaint given by my client under Section 509 of IPC,” the advocate added.
“Mr Nawazuddin Siddiqui and his family members have in the last seven days ensured that no food, no bed, and no bathroom to take bath is given to my client. They have even posted innumerable male bodyguards all around my client and further installed CCTV cameras in the hall, where my client is currently staying with her minor children,”
To add to all of this, they even ensured that I do not obtain any signatures of my client to file appropriate court cases against Mr. Nawazuddin Siddiqui and his family members. Despite being stopped and threatened at multiple levels and no police officer coming to the aid of my client, me and my team managed to obtain signatures of my client for the court cases. Accordingly, multiple cases are being filed in the courts now,” the advocate concluded.
Last week, Aaliya claimed that she was being harassed at her home after Nawazuddin’s mother filed a complaint against her over property dispute. Aaliya is currently staying at Nawazuddin’s Andheri house. Aaliya reportedly returned from Dubai with her kids, Yaani and Shora, due to passport issues.

Shah Rukh Khan returned to the silver screen after four years and impressed filmgoers with his latest highly acclaimed film Pathaan, so much so that fans are clamouring for more. A Twitter user Anandi Mishra is among them. What’s more, she imagined King Khan with American actor Anne Hathaway in a love story set in Uttarakhand’s Nainital
Imagining them together in a love story set in a hilly town. Nainital. Talking in Indian-American English. Sitting on one of those green benches, fingers interlaced. Looking at the jheel. Discussing groceries, calling the plumber, picking up their daughter after school…,” wrote Anandi Mishra while sharing two photos on Twitter. The first photo is of American actor Anne Hathaway while the second is of Shah Rukh Khan.
The tweet was shared three days ago. It has since accumulated over 3.6 lakh views, and the numbers are still increasing. The share has also prompted many to post their thoughts in the comments section.

YOU ASKED IT

By
KOMAL NAHTA
What’s your assessment of the lifetime business of Pathaan?
Rajan Barman, Mumbai
– It could well become the biggest Hindi blockbuster of all time. The current record holder is Aamir Khan’s DANGAL (which netted Rs. 385 crore). The first five-day weekend of PATHAAN will close at around Rs. 225-plus crore!! The first nine-day week will cross Rs. 300 crore by a big margin. It is likely to outdo the business of K.G.F. CHAPTER 2 (Hindi dubbed).
Will the stupendous success of Pathaan help the forthcoming films?
Koyal Rohatgi, Pune
– There’s something called psychology. Every success helps the forthcoming films because people are in the mood to frequent cinemas when movies do well. So, yes, the runaway success of PATHAAN should help the forthcoming films. Besides, PATHAAN has restored the confidence of the public in Bollywood films by its sheer opening which was phenomenal.
On which forthcoming film would you lay your bets?
Kajal Buxi, Lucknow
– On SHEHZADA, SELFIEE and TU JHOOTHI MAIN MAKKAAR in the next few weeks.

PATHAAN’ REVIEW
PATHAAN’ REVIEW
By
KOMAL NAHTA
Yash Raj Films Pvt. Ltd.’s Pathaan (UA) is a spy thriller. Pathaan (Shah Rukh Khan) forms a secret service agency comprising those agents who have been considered useless by the Indian government due to physical injuries etc. Supporting him is his boss, Nandini (Dimple Kapadia). Although Colonel Luthra (Ashutosh Rana) is also with Pathaan, he is not sure whether Pathaan’s plan is good.
In Pakistan, General Qadir (Manish Wadhwa) appoints erstwhile Indian secret service agent Jim (John Abraham) to reclaim Kashmir by getting India on its knees. So, Pathaan’s first mission after forming J.O.C.R. is to stop Jim in his track. Assisting Jim is ISI agent Rubai (Deepika Padukone). As time progresses, Pathaan gets to know that Jim’s sinister plan includes letting loose a virus which can threaten the very existence of human beings wherever it is let loose.
Does Pathaan succeed in thwarting Jim’s plans? If so, how?
Siddharth Anand has written a story which has so many twists and turns that it keeps the audience completely hooked. Yes, the story may not be novel but in spite of that, it doesn’t get predictable or boring. Shridhar Raghavan’s screenplay is first-rate. The pace is so phenomenal that the viewers do not get any time to think. The drama is not just interesting but also pretty engaging and engrossing. While keeping the tension alive throughout the length of the film, Raghavan has made sure to add light moments in the drama so that the audience gets a breather after short intervals, in the midst of the tension-ridden drama. Some scenes and sequences deserve special mention. Pathaan’s introduction, of course, is mind-blowing. So are Rubai’s introduction and, similarly, Jim’s introduction. The confrontation scenes between Pathaan and Jim are very exciting. The entire sequence of Salman Khan atop the train will bring the house down. In fact, there will be thunderous applause right through the sequence.
What’s more, the clapping and whistling starts even before Salman arrives on the scene. Again, there will be deafening applause in the controversial Besharam rang song, more so when Rubai appears in the even more controversial saffron-coloured swimming costume. The climax sequence in which Pathaan lays his hands on something coveted will also create a mini earthquake in the cinema halls. The last scene of the film (not being revealed) is just too outstanding. In several of these applause-worthy scenes and sequences, it will be difficult for the audience to clearly hear the dialogues, such will be the euphoria in the initial days. What’s more, Shridhar Raghavan has infused just the right amount of patriotism in the drama which will swell the viewers’ chests with pride. Abbas Tyrewala’s dialogues are fantastic, many of them clap-worthy too.
Shah Rukh Khan, coming after a long gap, strikes back like a wounded tiger. He does an absolutely splendid job. He looks like a million bucks, and uses all the charm at his command to endear himself to the audience. For all those who felt, Shah Rukh Khan was a spent force, this film comes as a tight slap on their faces. He is in full form and does the fullest justice to the character of Pathaan. In the role of Rubai, Deepika Padukone looks steaming hot and acts with effortless ease. It’s sheer delight to watch her perform as an ISI agent. Both, Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone look like international stars. Both of them dance with so much grace! John Abraham is mind-blowing in the role of Jim. He is menacing, and his cool demeanour goes supremely well with his character. Ashutosh Rana lends a lot of dignity to his character. Dimple Kapadia is wonderful. Salman Khan lends tremendous star value and shines in a special
special appearance. In the sequences in which they appear together, he and Shah Rukh Khan bring the house down. Manish Wadhwa leaves a fine impression as General Qadir. Aakash Bhatija makes a mark as Amol. Prakash Belawadi has his moments as Dr. Sahani. Ekta Kaul (as Shweta) is good. Viraf Patel (as Rishi), Shaji Choudhary (as Raza), Diganta Hazarika (as Joseph), Rajat Kaul (as Raafe), Prem Jhangiani (as Dr. Farooqui), Grace Girdhar (as young Rubai), Ashutosh Singh (as Rubai’s father), Amanpreet Hundal (as Rubai’s mother), Mansi Taxak (as Jim’s wife) and the others lend terrific support.
Siddharth Anand’s direction is superb. His narration keeps the audience engrossed right from the word ‘go’. He deserves full marks for making a film on this scale and for keeping the narration so tight. Vishal-Shekhar’s music is super-hit. There will be thunderous applause in the cinemas in the Besharam rang song, more so when Deepika Padukone appears in the controversial saffron-coloured swim suit. Kumaar’s lyrics are extremely mass-appealing.
The Jhoome Pathaan song is also lovely. Vaibhavi Merchant’s choreography in the Besharam rang song, and Bosco-Caesar’s choreography in the Jhoome Pathaan song are heavenly. Sanchit Balhara and Ankit Balhara’s background music is terrific, impactful and effective. Distinction marks to the duo for a background score that adds so much to the drama! Satchit Paulose’s cinematography is outstanding. Action and stunt scenes (choreographed by Casey O’Neill, Craig Macrae and Sunil Rodrigues) are supremely thrilling and exciting. Rajat Poddar’s production designing is of a very high standard. Aarif Sheikh’s editing is super-sharp.
On the whole, Pathaan is a blockbuster, no questions asked. It will break plenty of records and create many new ones. It is destined to be one of the biggest Hindi hits.
Released on 25-1-’23 at Regal (daily 4 shows), Inox (23 shows, in daily 20 shows from 26-1-’23) and other cinemas of Bombay by Yash Raj Film
Distributors. Publicity: outstanding (thanks to the controversy around the Besharam rang song). Opening: earth-shattering. …….Also released all over. Opening was historic everywhere.

ENTIRE INDUSTRY TO ATTEND FUNERAL
By
KOMAL NAHTA
It has never happened in the past. Believe it or die, the entire Hindi film industry is headed in the same direction. After watching Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan in the morning and forenoon shows, the industry people are all going to the cremation grounds to pay their last respects to the ‘Boycott Pathaan‘ and ‘Boycott Bollywood’ gangs.
News of the demise of both the gangs came in after the first show of Pathaan got over. The gangs were already battling for life since Friday, January 19, when the plans for the Shah Rukh Khan starrer opened. Looking to the fantastic response to the film, the ‘Boycott Pathaan‘ gang took seriously ill. It was admitted to a hospital close to Yash Raj Films studio on 19th. Within hours of the same, one saw the ‘Boycott Bollywood’ gang being wheeled straight into the ICU of the same hospital. According to the doctors, both the gangs had to be put on life support system within hours of their admission.
Both the gangs fought for life valiantly. There were occasions when it appeared that the gangs would recover, especially when news of a stray incident of vandalising of a cinema house ready to screen Pathaan filtered in. But the joy of the families of the gangs was short-lived. For, within minutes of revival of the gangs, they became breathless over again. It is believed that the brisk ticket sales of Pathaan at PVR, Inox, Cinepolis, other stand-alone multiplexes and single-screen cinemas resulted in severe breathing problems for both the gangs.
Not the ones to give up easily, the two gangs fought till this morning (25th January). The attending doctors had told the families of the two gangs that Wednesday would be a very crucial day for the two patients on ventilators. The first round of thunderous applause in a multiplex, the first loud shrill of mass whistling in the cinemas, the first screams of joy… all these proved to be the proverbial last straw on the camel’s back. According to the doctors, the ‘Boycott Pathaan‘ gang breathed its last before the ‘Boycott Bollywood’ gang. But there was a difference of barely a minute or two
between the two demises, it is learnt from internal sources. One doctor said on condition of anonymity that the ‘Boycott Bollywood’ gang simply lost the will to live when its friend, the ‘Boycott Pathaan‘ gang, passed away.
The funerals of both the gangs are scheduled to take place at the IMPPA office today at 6 p.m. It is learnt that every single person of the film industry will be attending the funerals. In fact, one hears that several top distributors and exhibitors are landing in Bombay from other cities to pay their last (dis)respects to the departed souls, sorry, bodies (as they were soulless, it has been proven).
P.S.: Oven-fresh news just in: The funerals of the two gangs have been postponed to tomorrow (26th January). That’s because the founder-members of the two gangs will not be able to make it to the funerals as they are watching Pathaan in the 5 p.m. show. All efforts to pull them out of the cinemas proved futile because they were seen whistling, clapping and cheering for the characters in the film. And yes, they were also seen dancing after standing on their seats in the cinemas on the Besharam rang song, matching Deepika Padukone’s sensuous steps.
CRAZY RESPONSE TO ‘PATHAAN’ IN CINEMAS
CRAZY RESPONSE TO ‘PATHAAN’ IN CINEMAS
By
KOMAL NAHTA
The public seems to have gone mad with excitement. The scenes in single-screen cinemas and multiplexes during shows of Pathaan are to be seen to be believed. Not only are people clapping, applauding, screaming and shouting in scenes of the film but they are on their feet in the Jhoome Pathaan song which comes in the fag end of the spy thriller. And this is happening not in one, two or ten cinemas, but in hundreds of cinemas across the length and breadth of the country. Frankly, one has never witnessed this kind of response inside cinema halls pan-India for any film in the past.
Several factors have led to this kind of euphoria. Of course, the first and foremost reason for this behaviour of the audience from North to South and East to West is that they have loved the film and the characters of Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone. Secondly, the dialogues, songs and dances of Pathaan are becoming a rage. Thirdly, the public seems to be showering all its love on the film because of the sympathy wave in favour of Shah Rukh after the film was surrounded in an ugly controversy relating to the saffron-coloured swim suit of Deepika in the Besharam rang song.
Looking to the unprecedented response to the Siddharth Anand film, it would not be incorrect to say that Pathaan is not just a film, it has become a celebration of sorts, at least initially till the euphoria settles down

The stay on the release of Rajkumar Santoshi’s Gandhi Godse Ek Yudh was today (January 24) lifted by the Bombay high court. As a result, the film will hit the screens on January 26.
The city civil court (Borivli division), Dindoshi, Goregaon, Bombay had on January 20 put an embargo on the film’s release till Santoshi deposited Rs. 50 lakh in court which petitioner Y.T. Entertainment Ltd. (company of late financier Raju Shah) claimed was owed by Rajkumar Santoshi to it. Rajkumar Santoshi as well as Santoshi Productions LLP filed writ petitions in the high court against the city civil court order.
The Bombay high court permitted Santoshi to deposit an amount of Rs. 25 lakh with the trial court within a period of four weeks and thereby lifted the embargo on the film’s release.
PATHAAN’: WHAT CAN ONE EXPECT FROM THE SRK STARRER
By
KOMAL NAHTA
Just a day to go before the controversial Pathaan comes to the cinemas for public consumption and scrutiny. With the hype the film has generated, rest assured that there will be as many reports and analysis as the number of people watching the film.
Now that it is clear that the advance booking for the film is just too phenomenal, the question uppermost in the public minds is: how much business will the spy film do?
Well, Information predicts the following:
If the film is just average, it will collect a net of at least Rs. 200 crore in India during its lifetime which will get exhausted within a couple of weeks from the date of its release (25th January).
If the film has above-average merits, it will do business which is hit. In such a scenario, the film can safely be expected to cross the Rs. 250-crore mark. The film will run for around four to five weeks in this case.
If the public doesn’t just like the film but loves it, hitting the Rs. 300-crore mark will be a cakewalk for the Yash Raj film. In this case, the film will complete a run of seven to eight weeks in cinemas.
If the film drives the audience crazy with joy, it will easily end up doing more than Rs. 300 crore, maybe even Rs. 350 crore. A run of eight to ten weeks is assured.
Of course, if, God forbid, the film is found lacking in merits, even the almost unprecedented advance booking may not be able to save the film.
As far as the first day’s figures are concerned, it is a given that the film will net more than Rs. 45 crore tomorrow. Whether it touches the Rs. 50-crore mark is to be seen. And it is also to be seen if it records the best opening ever, outdoing War, Thugs Of Hindostan and K.G.F. Chapter 2 too. Anything is possible. Read that again: ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE ON THE FIRST DAY which is neither a regular day (Friday) nor a holiday (festival or national).
PATHAAN’ CRAZE: THE LOGIC BEHIND THE MADNESS
PATHAAN’ CRAZE: THE LOGIC BEHIND THE MADNESS
By
KOMAL NAHTA
Everybody and his cousin is talking about the euphoria surrounding Pathaan. The plans opened on Friday and by the end of the fifth day, more than 5.25 lakh tickets of the film had already been sold. This is the highest number for a Hindi film. If dubbed Hindi films are also considered, it is next only to Bahubali 2: The Conclusion. Pathaan overtook the Hindi dubbed version of K.G.F. Chapter 2 as far as advance booking is concerned, only a couple of hours back. The Kannada film’s Hindi dubbed version had sold 5.15 lakh tickets in advance when it was released in April last year.
No doubt, the plans for Pathaan are filling faster in areas where there’s a sizeable Muslim population than in the other areas, especially in the case of multiplexes. But the following is what would emerge if one tries to analyse the madness in the cinema halls even before the film is out there for the public to pass its judgement:
Shah Rukh Khan’s long absence from the scene seems to have benefitted Pathaan. People appear to be very keen to watch him in action action on the big screen after so long.
The ‘Boycott Pathaan‘ gang, however minuscule it may have been (have been because, one supposes, the gang is disbanded by now as they have no face to even look at themselves in the mirror), seems to have worked cent per cent in the film’s favour. This is because a huge sympathy wave has built up in favour of Shah Rukh Khan. People feel, the star has been victimised from all sides by the powers that be as they did not bother to take action against those who vandalised cinemas and threatened cinema owners with dire consequences if they “dared to screen the film”. Hundreds and thousands of people are planning to watch Pathaan in solidarity with Khan even though they are self-admittedly not fans of Shah Rukh Khan. This kind of solidarity is almost unprecedented in the annals of the film industry. People also feel, the Khan was wronged when his son, Aryan Khan, was arrested in the cruise drugs bust case in October last year although no drug was found on his person.
The trailer of the film was liked by the potential audience. And those who did not like it, loved it!
The controversial Besharam rang song from the film, which seemed to have raised the hackles of those demanding a ban on the song and the film, has become a rage with the masses and classes alike.
An exciting trailer of a film and a hit song in it are a sure sign that the film will open big. In the case of Pathaan, not only have the two aforesaid conditions been fulfilled but additionally, the controversy has tilted the scales in favour of the film by prompting people to come out in large numbers in its supporters

Superstar of the Millennium Amitabh Bachchan in many interviews said, ” Whatever success I got in the film industry is because of Salim-Javed, very honestly credit goes to them as well, these two are amongst very few persons who transformed an Actor Amitabh into a Superstar Amitabh Bachchan.” Javed Akhtar and Salim Khan were one iconic duo of their times. They have worked on multiple films together and gained name, fame and money. Infact they gave recognition to the film writers as in the past writers were not given credits on the posters, designs and many times on the screen. They were the first who treated and recognised as Stars. After giving dozens of superhits, they fell apart after some time. Javed has recently revealed the reason behind their separation.
In a recent interview, he unveiled, “Salim was one of the few who would encourage me. Had I been living somewhere else, we might have not met often, but because I got a room close to his home, I would often visit him.”
He further added, “In our struggling days, we were one tea. We did not have any other friends, we would work together from morning till evening. We would even have meals together. Out of 24 hours, we would spend 15-16 hours with each other. But as we became successful, new people came into our lives and our friend’s circle got separated. The mental rapport we had was broken. We could no longer work as a team.”
After their seperation Akhtar concentrated on lyrics writing and recieved name, fame and money while Saleem Khan continued as a story,screen play writer for sometime.
Saleem Khan is married to Asma and actress Helen and he is the proud father of Salman Khan , Arbaz Khan, Sohail Khan and Arpita while Javed Akhtar is married to actor and activist Shabana Azmi and he is a proud father of actor Farhan Akhtar and Zoya Akhtar.

Santoshi’s lawyer argued in the high court that his wife was the producer of Gandhi Godse Ek Yudh while Rajkumar Santoshi was merely the film’s director. But the advocate for Yash Shah told the court that Rajkumar Santoshi was a shareholder in Santoshi Productions LLP under which banner the film had been made.
After hearing both the sides, the court ruled that five days’ time be given to Santoshi to deposit the cash security of Rs. 50 lakh in the court. Santoshi is likely to appeal against the order.

As I wrap Emergency as an actor today…. a tremendously glorious phase of my life
comes to its full completion… It may seem I sailed through it comfortably but the truth is far from it… From mortgaging all my properties, every single thing that I owned to being diagnosed with dengue during the first schedule and having to film it inspite of alarmingly low blood cell counts, my character as an individual has been severely tested….I have been very open about my feelings on SM but I didn’t share all this, honestly because i didn’t want people who cared to worry unnecessarily and those who desperately want to see me fall and were doing everything to make me suffer, i didn’t want to give them the pleasure of my pain ….
At the same time I want to share with you all that if you believe just working hard for your dreams or for what you want is enough, think again because that’s not true…You must work hard that’s given even if you are worthy you will be tested beyond your limits and you mustn’t break…
Hold on to yourself till you can … you are fortunate if life spares you but you are blessed if it doesn’t……. if you break and shatter in pieces… celebrate… Because it’s time for you to reborn …It’s a rebirth for me and I feel alive like never before…Thanks to my tremendously talented team for making it happen for me…
P.S all those who care about me please know that I’am in a safe place now … I would have not shared all this if I wasn’t …please don’t worry, I only need your blessings and love.

About Kangana Ranaut –
Kangana Ranaut is known for her mesmerizing performences, She is amongst one of the very talented actresses of the Indian Film Industry. She got fame through her fabulous performance in Tanu Weds Manu and after the huge success of the movie she never looked back. Although she involved herself in many Controversies related to many Film Personalities that alleged Aaditya Pancholi, Adhyan Suman, Hrithik Roshan , Karan Johar and many more others. She never hesitate in speaking her heart. Film personalities have blamed her for anti film Industry activities and some said she isn’t in her normal mental status, some said she desperately need mental councelling as she invites problems for herself every now and then. She never stops speeking and even posting controversial statements. However nobody has doubt regarding her immense talents. People believe if she leaves her negetivities and go through a complete medical checkups with her normal mental conditions then no one can stop her becoming the QUEEN of the Indian Film Industry.
After Controversies Kangana isn’t getting the kind of work she deserves so she decided to make her own films like Feroz khan Manoj Kumar, Sanjay Khan in the past did, these actors were immensely talented actors but we’re famous for their anger and King-size attitude, they turned film makers as they were not getting the kind of films and roles they deserved. Kangana Ranaut is facing almost the same situation and harassment which Sanjay Khan, Feroz Khan, Manoj Kumar faced during their era.Kangana is undoubtedly Known for her best portrayals of strong-willed, unconventional women in female-led films, she is the recipient of many awards but the biggest award that she recieved in the past was love, praise and applauses of the filmgoers.
We wish that May God bless her with infinite glories once again which she has lost.

It was a lucky day for #shahrukhkhanfans as they got an opportunity to chat with their icon King Khan.
A fan questioned Shah Rukh Khan, “why he wasn’t outside Mannat while he was waiting.” and the Superstar responded in a jolly mood.
Shah Rukh Khan responded to a fan who posted a photo and claimed to be waiting outside Mannat, the actor’s Mumbai residence. Shahrukh Khan | SRK hosted – an Ask Me Anything session on Twitter on Saturday. In his tweet, Shah Rukh said, “15 minutes #AsKSRK just to thank you for the love and to spread some more fun on Saturday….”
A fan tweeted a selfie they had taken outside Mannat and added, “@iamsrk #AskSRK wait kar raha tha bahar kyu nahi aaye (I was waiting outside why didn’t you come out)?” Shah Rukh replied, “Feeling lazy want to chill in the bed yaar.”
Before the premiere of Pathaan, a fan requested Shah Rukh if he will stop by The Kapil Sharma Show. For the purpose of promoting their films, the cast members appear on programmes. “Bhai seedha movie hall mein aaoonga wahin milte hain….#Pathaan (I will come to the movie hall directly, let’s meet there).” he continued.
When a fan asked about Shah Rukh‘s son AbRam Khan’s reaction to Pathaan, SRK replied, “He saw the trailer and loved the jet pack sequence….now he wants one!!!”
Shah Rukh responded when a fan revealed they had lost their job and were feeling down: “Fikr mat karo, or acchi wali job mil jayegi. Up Down ke baad aata hain (Don’t worry; you’ll obtain a better job. After a hard moment, there will be good times.” “@iamsrk sir, do you believe in magic?” a fan inquired. “I believe in life…means I believe in magic!!” declared Shah Rukh.
That was a lovely interaction with fans.
Few fans were lucky as they got replies from their favourite star.

One of the finest actors of Bollywood Kartik Aryan was seen facing googlies and seemers of the host Rajat Sharma at the popular show Aapki Adalat.
During the latest episode of India TV’s Aap Ki Adalat, Kartik ziped her lips but blushed when Rajat Sharma said, ” Kartik you have created a new record in the industry where with every film you do, your name gets attached with the film’s heroine ?” Kartik was spell bound but after a pause he said,
“Sir, I will tell you the truth only, but I am thinking how many truths ! sir, I like coffee so if anyone asks me to go out then I know that the person will also have coffee so I tend to go with them for that reason. I am a very generous person and that news comes out… beyond that there is nothing I have created no record. If two people are seen together, that is all that takes to create news that they are dating.. I think that if I go out to have coffee with you then also they will say the same.”
Rajat Sharma smiled and audiance started laughing.

Pathan waves is coming
YOU ASKED IT | 20 January, 2023
Some people on social media were claiming that like they had ensured that Aamir Khan’s Laal Singh Chaddha would flop, they would also make sure that Shah Rukh Khan’s Pathaan would fail at the box-office. Will they succeed?
Shweta Suman, Mumbai
Succeed? Do you really think that the failure of LAAL SINGH CHADDHA was because of the call to boycott the film at the time of its release?
The phenomenal response at the advance booking counters of PATHAAN is enough proof that the boycott gang is nothing but a lot of gas.
Why is Shah Rukh Khan not promoting Pathaan? Don’t you think, it’s wrong on his part, especially because he is coming after such a long time and also because his past few films have not worked at the box-office?
Ravi Adhikari, Nasik
– Shah Rukh Khan doesn’t need to promote PATHAAN because the film has already got free publicity worth crores of rupees, thanks to the unnecessary controversy around the saffron-coloured swimming costume of Deepika Padukone in the Besharam rang song, as shown in the trailer. The boycott gang should hate itself for giving the film so much free publicity. In fact, there are thousands of people who may not have been keen to see the film because they aren’t fans of Shah Rukh, but who will now watch the film in solidarity with the star because he has got people’s sympathy after the ridiculous controversy.
What kind of a figure do you now predict for the opening day’s collection of Pathaan?
Sajan Venkatesh, Bangalore
– It could be Rs. 40 crore on the first day. And mind you, it is an odd day (Wednesday) release BUT not a holiday.

PM MODI ASKS BJP LEADERS TO REFRAIN FROM UNNECESSARY REMARKS ON FILMS
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on January 17 advised the leaders of the BJP to refrain from making unnecessary statements about films. He passed the diktat during the BJP national executive meeting held on January 16 and 17 in Delhi.
Reportedly, the PM said that “some people give statements on some film” which plays on TV and in media all day.”
Modi’s remark comes amidst calls for a boycott of Pathaan which is scheduled for release on January 25. BJP leaders like Ram Kadam and Narottam Mishra have been vocal in their criticism of the film over the saffron coloured swim suit worn by Deepika Padukone in the Besharam rang song.
It may be recalled that Sunil Shetty had a fortnight back asked Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath on his visit to Bombay to meet film people, to take action against the Boycott Bollywood brigade which was
badmouthing every other film at the slightest opportunity.

SHARAD RAI
Bollywood actresses Jacqueline Fernandez and Nora Fatehi appeared in Delhi Patiala House court and have provided fresh informations in connection to their alleged involvement in the conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar Rs 215 cr. exhortation case. The Bollywood stars have made allegations against the conman Suresh and unvealed how he introduced himself and what all promises he made during their alleged relationship with him.
The conman’s money laundering case has been in media since long and the case is under trial. The case captured media headlines since many celebrities name get attached with the conman. Recently many names of other celebs like Nikki Tamboli, Chahatt Khanna and others emerged along with Jacqueline Fernandez and Nora Fatehi.
Nora Fatehi said in a statement, “Many actresses are dying to be taken care of by Sukesh. Initially, I did not know who Sukesh was. Later, I thought he used to work at a company called LS Corporation. I neither had any personal contact nor did I ever have any conversations with him. I had no clue about this and I never met him. The only time I saw him was when the ED confronted me with him at its office.”
Jacqueline Fernandez said, ” Sukesh Chandrashekhar played with my emotions and made my life hell. He misled me, and ruined my career and my livelihood. Pinky Irani introduced me by convincing my makeup artist, Shaan Muthathil, that Chandrashekhar was an important official from the Home Ministry.
He introduced himself as the owner of Sun TV and claimed J Jayalalitha was his aunt. Chandrashekhar said he was a big fan, and said I should do films in South India too, and as the owner of Sun TV, they had many projects lined up. We should try to work together in south Indian movies. He never mentioned he was calling from jail or that he was in jail. He used to call from one corner with a curtain and a sofa in the background.”
Jacqueline Fernandez further said, “He did not contact me after August 8, 2021, and I later got to know he was arrested for impersonating senior government officials of the Home Ministry and the law ministry. Pinky Irani always had an intention of cheating me. I was fooled by Shekhar. At the time I got to know about Shekhar’s criminal background, I got to know that his real name is Sukesh. Pinky was aware of Shekhar’s activity and background. But she never disclosed this to me.”
Bollywood Reporter/www.bollywoodreporters.com will keep it’s eyeballs on the court trials to provide the regular updates to it’s readers, till then chill guys and watch few good movies.

KUTTEY’ REVIEW
‘KUTTEY’ REVIEW | 13 January, 2023
Luv Films, T-Series Films and Vishal Bhardwaj Films’ Kuttey (A) is the story of a few individuals who are eyeing a bank van carrying crores of rupees, like hungry dogs would eye their food.
bank van is transporting tons of money from one point to another. Unknown to the others, three different groups want to usurp the crores of rupees from the van. Each individual or group wants the money for different reasons. Who finally gets the money, and what happens to the others is what the crux of the story is all about.
Gopal (Arjun Kapoor) and Paaji (Kumud Mishra) are police officers. They need money to get out of a terrible situation they’ve landed themselves in. Their senior officer, Pammi (Tabu), is thirsting for the money because she wants to improve her standard of living. Lovely (Radhika Madan), daughter of underworld don Narayan Khobre (Naseeruddin Shah), wants to lay her hands on the crores so that she can spend the rest of her life with Danny Dandekar (Shardul Bhardwaj) who, incidentally, works for her father. There is also Laxmi (Konkona Sen Sharma) who leads a group of Communist rebels who are on the run.
Aasmaan Bhardwaj has written an interesting story but one which moves on a single track. Although the story has layers in the sense that there are different groups at work, the objective of all the three groups is to lay their hands on the crores of rupees being transported from one point to another. Aasmaan Bhardwaj’s screenplay, with additional screenplay by Vishal Bhardwaj, is very interesting and it has been written in such a way that there is a lot of back and forth in the drama. This makes the drama interesting. But having said that, it must be added that the screenplay would appeal more to the class audience. Of course, the swear words, mouthed by the characters, hold appeal for the masses and front-benchers but the design of the drama is class-appealing. The climax could’ve been better and more exciting. Vishal Bhardwaj’s dialogues are raw and interesting. The use of four-letter words make the dialogues more entertaining.
Arjun Kapoor plays the role of corrupt police officer Gopal with complete conviction. He remains in character and does justice to his role. Tabu is very good as Pammi. The flourish with which she uses Hindi swear words is both, interesting and entertaining. Kumud Mishra is delightful in the role of Paaji. Radhika Madan does well as Lovely. Shardul Bhardwaj makes quite an impressive debut in the role of Danny Dandekar. Konkona Sen Sharma has her moments as Laxmi. Naseeruddin Shah does not get much scope to perform in the role of Narayan Khobre but he definitely lends weight to the character with his mere presence. Karan Nagar makes his presence felt as Sharad Khobre. Ashish Vidyarthi leaves a mark as Harry. Vijayant Kohli is natural to the core as Mamu. Jay Upadhyay is alright as Surti. Santosh Juvekar (as the police inspector), Anurag Kashyap (as the politician), Vijay Kumar Singh (as Shankar), Jagbir Singh Pannu (as the police inspector), Aasmaan Bhardwaj (as Rajiv Mishra), Brij Gopal (as Manohar), Ashwini Mishra (as the additional commissioner of police), Rewati Limaye (as Gopal’s wife) and Lavishka Gupta (as Gopal’s daughter) lend the necessary support.
Aasmaan Bhardwaj’s direction is good. The back-and-forth narration would appeal to the classes more than the masses. Although it is not an easy form of narration, Aasmaan has done justice to it. He has also extracted good work from out of his actors. The debut-making director definitely understands the craft very well. Vishal Bhardwaj’s music is appealing in the sense that the songs sound nice in the film but they are not too popular. Vishal Bhardwaj’s background music is pretty impactful. He has used the ‘Dan tan tan’ tune from his past film to great advantage. Lyrics (by Gulzar and Faiz Ahmed Faiz) are weighty. Farhad Ahmed Dehlvi’s cinematography is excellent. Action and stunt scenes (choreographed by Harpal Singh and Anton Moon) are very thrilling. Subrata Chakraborty and Amit Ray’s production designing is of a fine standard. A. Sreekar Prasad’s editing is sharp.
On the whole, Kuttey is an entertaining film. It is class-appealing and will, therefore, get more critical acclaim than box-office rewards
because such films nowadays work better on OTT platforms. Family audience patronage will be less for the film. At the ticket windows, the well-written, well-made and well-enacted film will do limited business but collections will definitely pick up as the word of mouth among the class audience will be good.
Released on 13-1-’23 at Inox (daily 5 shows) and other cinemas of Bombay thru Yash Raj Film Distributors. Publicity: so-so. Opening: dull. …….Also released all over. Opening was not up to the mark at most of the places.

And we must do all of this, day after day, without losing sight of everything we are and can be, along with being their mothers.” Not only this, Twinkle usually asks netizens to post their opinions. She asks, “Agree or Disagree?”

When Vinod Khanna and Feroz Khan acted together in film Shankar Shambhu they were just friends but during the shooting they slowly and gradually became good friends and later they became best friends. At the shooting of Qurbaani there friendship was talk of the tinsel town as the Industry wasn’t known for friendship it was more famous for cut-throat competitions but these two actors of the same era presented an example of true friendship. Feroz Khan and Vinod Khanna received applauds for their camaraderie and finest performances in all the films they acted together. The pair received love from the audience and due to these films, the real-life bonding too became much stronger between the two.

At the peak of his career he left the Industry and joined the Ashram of Osho.
It was Feroz Khan who brought Vinod Khanna back to the Film Industry.

PATHAAN’ CERTIFICATION: CBFC HAS ITS SAY | 29 December, 2022
PATHAAN’ CERTIFICATION: CBFC HAS ITS SAY | 29 December, 2022

So has the colour of Deepika Padukone’s swimming costume in the Besharam rang song of Pathaan been changed by the Central Board of Film Certification? Well, one will have to wait for the film to release or, at least, be certified by the CBFC to know the answer. But here are some points made by CBFC chairman Prasoon Joshi regarding the process of certification in general and the Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika starrer in particular. It may be mentioned here that the film recently reached the CBFC examining committee for certification. In other words, the process of certification is in progress.
Prasoon Joshi says:
“CBFC’s balanced approach in the certification of Pathaan would be clear to all once the film releases.
The CBFC always has a tough task to strike the right balance between audience sensibilities and creative expressions, and we have stayed true to this spirit in the certification of Pathaan too.
“Certification as per the right category is important, and the committee made sure that due care is taken in terms of the film’s age appropriateness for the relevant category.
The makers have been advised modifications in the film with a balanced and holistic view as per the CBFC guidelines.
“As far as costume colours are concerned, the examining committee has stayed unbiased. When the film comes out, the reflection of this balanced approach will be clear to everyone. We need to understand that the CBFC works under guidelines as per the Cinematograph Act. And it endeavours to do its best in certifying films for the appropriate category. Also, there is always a provision for the makers to voluntarily make changes to their film and further submit an agreed-upon version. Whilst the process has been duly followed and is getting implemented, I must reiterate that our culture and faith are glorious, intricate and nuanced. And we have to be careful that they do not get defined by trivia or don’t get dragged into unwarranted controversy.
“And, like I have said earlier too, the trust between creators and the audience is the most important to protect, and the creators should keep working towards it so that there is little room for mistrust or misunderstanding.”
So now, what certificate will Pathaan get? ‘U’, ‘A’ or ‘UA’? And which scenes will be altered? Which will be deleted? Or will any scene be altered or deleted at all? Keep guessing!

Konkana plays Swathi Shetty, an incompetent cook who dreams of having a restaurant of her own, while Manoj is Prabhakar, the suspicious husband who won’t help with her aspirations.

Few days ago we saw Rahul Roy, Anu Agarwal and Deepak Tijori in a special episode of the very popular reality show Indian Idol, the episode was dedicated to the 1990’s blockbuster movie Aashiqui, it was a beautiful musical love story produced and directed by Mahesh Bhatt
Bollywood Reporter/ www.bollywoodreporters.com thought to get in touch with the female star of the movie. Anu Agarwal appeared in the Doordarshan serial Isi Bahane in 1988. She made her Bollywood debut with the blockbuster Aashiqui in 1990. It also starred Rahul Roy and Deepak Tijori. The film created various records at the box office.
Anu Agarwal spoke, ” After the record breaking success of my movie Aashiqui I acted in several films such as Ghazab Tamasha (1992), Thiruda Thiruda, Khal-Naaikaa and King Uncle (1993), Janam Kundli (1995), Return of Jewel Thief (1996) and few more. I can’t forget the overwhelming response I got
after Aashiqui, once thousands surrounded my car and started banging on it at Mumbai’s Marine Drive in 1991. They started banging my car, it’s windows shouting, ‘Anu, Anu’. There was no driver, I was driving the car. I was scared, as I thought the crazy fans might break my car, pull me out.’ first time in my life I experienced fear. Thousands of people beating my car, screaming ‘Anu’, Had they got hold of me, what would have happened to me. I never saw that kind of madness.”
Bollywood Reporter/ www.bollywoodreporters.com asked, ” But why that craze and fan following discontinued ?”
Anu said, ” There were many reasons and I don’t want to recall those reasons, but one of the reasons was the colour of my skin, the actress of the main stream cinema was considered to be fair and that I wasn’t, I even refused few projects when they tried to change the colour of my skin with the help of makeover, I had self respect and the concept of fair skin came to India along with Britishers, I dislike the concept. In the past we have seen many actresses with grey skin, Smita Patil was one of them, even Sridevi wasn’t fair and later Sushmita Sen became Miss Universe she wasn’t fair either.”

What’s happening with Ranveer Singh as his recent films have flopped miserably at the box office and film lovers are blaming that he is unable to pull people to the theaters with his fake stardom. Netizens are trolling him. According to many Ranveer Singh’s career is finished.
Ranveer’s recent film Cirkus has opened very low at the box office despite the festive season and Rohit Shetty’s good starcast which includes Jacqueline Fernandez , #PoojaHegde and many others.
People are calling the film Cirkus the worst film of the year as even festive season and holidays haven’t helped the film to collect respected amount. Netizens are trolling Ranveer brutely for his poor performance in the film they are saying that he has done overacting.
Film lovers are speaking filthy about the star on social media and many are very rude as they are shouting loud about his stardom, according to them his stardom is over and he needs to take a break from his career.
One user wrote, ‘I liked him in 83 and I liked the film even though it’s been deemed a flop but Ranveer is doing nonsense films like Simba and Cirkus instead of doing something good.He can’t be really called a superstar if this is how he choose films. I think he can act well but he’s not at a level to be termed as a ‘superstar’.
Another user wrote, ‘Ranveer deserves this. Shamelessly going and buying awards. Success has gone into his head’.
Ranveer Singh’s previous films 83 and Jayesh bhai Jordaar were unsuccessful at the box office and were considered as ‘flops’ and with his recent release Cirkus getting dull reactions, his fans are worried.
Bollywood Reporter/ www.bollywoodreporters.com suggest Ranveer Singh to kindly stop accepting bad films. As we very well know that he is one of the finest stars of the Indian Film Industry and it’s just a bend and not the end for him.

Filmmaker Anees Bazmee directorial Welcome hit the big screen 15 years ago but even then Welcome featuring biggies like Feroz Khan, Anil Kapoor, Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif is still fresh in our mind. Welcome was a big hit.
In an interview, filmmaker Anees Bazmee recalls #ferozekhan , the legendary style icon. Anees Bazmee unvieled – ” I am a die-hard fan of #ferozkhan sahab and it was my dream to work with the great Director, Producer, actor Feroz Khan, but honestly I wasn’t courageous enough to offer him a routined Bollywood kind of a film…and I was in search of a script and a tailored character for him. When the script of Welcome was ready I thought to cast him as RDX in the multi-starrer movie, I boosted my courage and tried my luck but Feroz Khan sahab straight away declined my offer, I tried again and again but from him was a big NO, not one or two, but over a dozen times, but I was determined to somehow convince him, I even tried to convince him through Fardeen Khan as we did No Entry together but Fardeen Khan said although he shall remind him about the offer but he can’t try to convince as his father is what that we all know.”
Anees Bazmee continued- “But I was not ready to loose him in the movie, I tried my level best to convince Feroz Khan. I thought if there is anyone who could play the big boss to Nana Patekar and Anil Kapoor, it was Feroz Khan saheb. However, he didn’t want to do the film. I reckon he was not in great health then. One fine day he responded my phone call positively, and he called me at Lotia Palace (Khan’s Bunglow, beside Juhu Beach) In our meeting he said that he liked Fardeen’s work in No Entry, but again he didn’t agree to do the film. I was adamant that he do the film. I went to his house not less than 15 times, and every time he politely refused.”
Anees Bazmee furthur said, ” I still had faith that Khan sahab would ultimately accept the project and finally he did.”
Bollywood Reporter/ www.bollywoodreporters.com asked, ” There were news that Feroz Khan wasn’t happy after watching the movie as his role wasn’t in the shape as it was narrated to him ?”
Anees Bazmee said, ” Feroz Khan Sahab was not in good health at that time and even refused to fly for the Dubai Schedule, however at the eleventh hour he agreed to participate in that shoot and the final output was very good. Audiences, critics, Feroz khan Lovers and all of us liked, loved and appreciated him as RDX.”
Feroz Khan lost the battle against the deadly Cancer and he said Goodbye for his final destination.
When the sequel of the movie Welcome was planned Veteran actor Nana Patekar said, ” There is no one who can replace the late legendary Feroz Khan, the greatest style icon.”

The Christmas week brings good cheer and initiates the festive spirit which runs through till the following year’s 1st January (New Year’s Day). But this very Christmas week seems to be pretty unlucky for Ranveer Singh, at least as far as his new film releases are concerned.
Cirkus, which was released today (23rd December), opened to dull houses, and its public reports are also not up to the mark. Last year too, the Christmas week brought in bad news for Ranveer as his 83, which hit the screens on 24th December, 2021, proved a damp squib at the turnstiles. His Simmba, released post-Christmas (on 28th December, 2018),

Avatar 2 is doing good at the box-office, Now the question arise, “Amid the fever of Avatar 2 weather queues for the advance booking of Cirkus will remain short ?” Advance booking of the movie Cirkus has started and so far, it has earned 51 lakhs only, for day 1 queues were small and not big. This is really low considering the fact that Rohit Shetty is a big name and a box office hit machine. The 1 crore mark is yet to be hit and it’s an alarming sign as only 3 days are remaining for the film’s release.
The short queues in front of the box-office windows are not giving positive vibes, let’s keep our fingers crossed and be positive for the huge success of Rohit Shetty’s Cirkus, as Ranveer Singh , Jacqueline Fernandez , #RohitShetty , #PoojaHegde and the whole team has done hard work and they deserve Success.

I am jealous of Rishab’s performance in Kantara: Nawazuddin Siddiqui
One of the finest actors of the Indian Film Industry Nawazuddin watched Kantara and reacted in his style.
Nawazuddin told Bollywood Reporter / www.bollywoodreporters.com , “I watched Kantara and totally bold out by the performance of Rishabh, not only I, the entire country saw Risabh and is shocked. He did not promote his work and didn’t spoke anything about his performance, he did his work quietly and made us jealous as we all are impressed with his marvelous acting. If someone does good work, a sense of jealousy occurs in our actor’s community and at the same time, the urge to compete inspires.” He further said, “ Yes, I said ‘Jealousy’. It happens, when an actor delivers such good work. It is not jealousy with the ingredients of negativity but it makes you stand on your toes that even I have to work hard.” Kantara actor Rishab Shetty, also praised Nawazuddin, he said, “I have watched so many of Nawaz bhai’s movies and watched his journey filled with hard work and effort. He is like us, we are middle-class people with no background but we want to come into the industry and make it big. He is a very big inspiration for me and all of us. He has come from theatre and done so many small roles. Even I have done such small roles in Kannada cinema before I got my big break. He is our senior and a brilliant actor, we have the same journey. I am his fan as he has given so many amazing performances.”

Criminal complaints lodged against Shark Tank fame Ashneer Grover and family
Criminal complaints lodged against Shark Tank fame Ashneer Grover and family
By
RUBY ZAIDI
Fintech unicorn BharatPe has accused its ousted managing director Shark Tank fame Ashneer Grover, and his family of embezzling company funds to pay for personal expenses, including rent, plane tickets, and skincare products, as well as funnelling money to fake vendors and recruitment services.
In a civil lawsuit filed in the Delhi high court on Thursday, BharatPe has sought ₹88.67 crore in damages from Grover, his wife Madhuri Jain Grover, and family members. It said Grover and his family created fictitious vendors in Panipat to provide services to BharatPe, raised fake invoices and overcharged the firm for recruitment.
The payments firm also filed a criminal complaint against Grover and his family, including Deepak Gupta, Suresh Jain and Shwetank Jain, with the Delhi Police. BharatPe is seeking damages from Grover and family, including a claim for payment made against the invoices of non-existent vendors, amounting to ₹71.7 crore; payments made to vendors purportedly providing recruitment services totalling ₹7.6 crore; ₹5 crore in damages for loss of reputation to the company caused by tweets and other statements made by Grover and his family members.
BharatPe claimed Grover has been running a “vicious campaign” against the company on social media.“The civil complaint is for recovery of losses BharatPe has faced because of the acts of Ashneer, his wife and his family. This is one team—headed by Madhuri Jain Grover, advised and guided by Grover, and then others—BharatPe is going against,” a person close to the matter said, seeking anonymity.
Grover and Madhuri Jain Grover’s counsel said his client was not served a notice and that “they only came to know about this through print media today”.
The Delhi high court asked Grover and his family to respond to the company’s charges within two weeks. The next hearing will be in the first week of January. Law firm Trilegal is representing BharatPe in the civil suit filed in the high court.
BharatPe has filed a criminal complaint against Grover and his family with the Economic Offences Wing of Delhi Police, alleging criminal breach of trust, conspiracy, cheating, forgery and destruction of evidence.

I am not ruining Arjun Kapoor’s life : Malaika Arora
Ex-wife of Arbaaz Khan Malaika Arora finally spoke about her relationship with younger Arjun Kapoor. Moving in with Malaika’s fourth episode when she defended her against the blames. Malaika took a dig at everyone who targeted her for her walking style, divorce with Arbaaz Khan and relationship with Arjun Kapoor.
After taking several digs at her sister Amrita Arora and friend Anusha Dandekar, Malaika spoke about Arjun, she said, ” I am not ruining Arjun Kapoor’s life by dating him and unfortunately not only am I old, I am also dating a younger man. I mean I have guts. I mean I am ruining his life, right? Just a PSA for everyone, I am not ruining his life.”
Malaika further said, “It’s not like he was going to school and he couldn’t focus on studies and I told him to come with me. I mean, every time we are on a date, it’s not like he is bunking classes. I didn’t catch him on the street while he was catching Pokémon. He is a goddam grown up man. We are two consenting adults. If an older man dates a younger girl, he is a player. But if an older woman dates a younger man, she is a cougar. This is not fair.”

Akshay Kumar has lost his stardom
There were news that Akshay Kumar has been dropped from the film Hera Pheri 3, and his role shall be played by Kartik Aryan.
Bollywood Reporter / www.bollywoodreporters.com investigated the truth.
This is a fact that In the year 2022, Akshay has delivered 4 back to back box office super flops in the form of Bachchhan Paandey, Samrat Prithviraj, Raksha Bandhan and Ram Setu. Even in the past few years his films haven’t done good bussiness. But he isn’t replaced by Kartik Aryan, infact the character of Akshay Kumar has been thrown out from the movie. There are several reasons why #AkshayKumar ‘s films are failing ? Many filmmakers have openly said that Akshay Kumar is not dedicated enough to his films and since he finishes them quickly, there’s no depth to his characters. He don’t transform himself into the character, he remains the same Akshay Kumar in every film.
Few film makers blamed him for minting money by doing more and more films.
One very famous director said , ” Akshay Kumar has lost his stardom and he is no more a star now.”

Ranbir Kapoor is Stubborn like his father Rishi Kapoor, the legend.
Star and fabulous actor Ranbir Kapoor is as Stubborn as his father Rishi Kapoor, the legend used to be, Rishi Kapoor had few policies, terms and conditions which he followed throughout his career. Ranbir Kapoor too has quite a few film policies, terms and conditions that he follows as the actor is not interested in doing multi-starrer films, he wants to do only solo-hero movies although his father was seen in many two heros & multi starrer films but they all had equally distributed roles for both the actors, Rishi Kapoor wasn’t less impressive in all his two heros & multi starrer movies, Hum Kisi se Kum nahi, Naseeb, Amar Akbar Anthony and quite a few more. Ranbir had even turned down a movie offered by Karan Johar. Ranbir said, “Now a days, it’s difficult to do justice with the characters of the two or more than two heros, I don’t wanna fight for my lines and scenes at the shootings on the sets, it’s better not to accept them, I want Solo starrer only. There’s another policy that he abides by, and that is of not doing remake movies, he says, ” Remakes are risky as today the globe has become smaller and credit goes to the Ott platforms, when a film maker starts shooting of a remake for Bollywood at the very such moment people watch the original one on the internet and most of the time they lose interest watching it’s Bollywood version.”

Review TARA VS BILAL’ REVIEW | 28 October, 2
T-Series Films, JA Entertainment and TVB Films’ Tara Vs Bilal (UA) is the story of two persons who enter into a fake matrimonial alliance but end up falling in love with one another. Tara (Sonia Rathee) comes to London for her honeymoon but her husband deserts her after making away with her jewellery and money. Bilal (Harshvardhan Rane), whose hotel Tara and her husband had checked into, throws Tara out as soon as he gets to know that she is broke. As she has no money, Tara takes up a job in a club. One day, she meets Bilal in the club. By the by, the two get friendly. Bilal requests her to support him in his ‘marriage game’ as his family is forcing him to settle down in life but he doesn’t want to get hitched. Tara agrees. So, he takes Tara home to his family and tells the family members that they would soon be getting married. He tells Tara to misbehave with the family members so that they themselves would ask him to call off the marriage. But that doesn’t happen. Tara and Bilal get married. Soon after the marriage which was never meant to be he packs her off to India, and informs his family about the fake marriage. What happens thereafter?
Sanyuktha Chawla Shaikh’s story and screenplay are half-baked and, therefore, fail to appeal to the audience. There are innumerable guys/girls whose families pressurise them to get married but how many people would do what Tara and Bilal plan? In other words, Bilal’s plan to pretend that they are ready for marriage is so ridiculous that it just doesn’t make sense. What’s more, when he realises that he cannot wriggle out of the wedding plan, he actually gets married. The viewers are unable to understand why he cannot tell his family members upfront that he does not want to marry Tara. As it is, he does reveal to his family soon after his wedding that he had sent away his ‘bride’ back to India. If he could confess a day after the wedding, what prevented him from telling them before the marriage? Tara takes up a job in London because she has no money. Why she doesn’t think of returning to India by borrowing money is not explained. Sanyuktha Chawla Shaikh’s dialogues are ordinary.
Harshvardhan Rane looks handsome and acts well in the role of Bilal. Sonia Rathee is so-so as Tara. Mona Ambegaonkar, Niki Walia, Shagufta Ali, Deepika Amin and the others are adequate.
Samar Iqbal’s direction is kiddish. Manan Bhardwaj’s music and lyrics are okay. Naz Choudhury’s choreography is fair. Background music (Japjisingh Valecha and Gaurav Godkhindi) does not add much to the drama. Amarjeet Singh’s cinematography is quite alright. Dipika Kalra’s editing is loose.
On the whole, Tara Vs Bilal is a disaster of a film. It is a non-starter and will go almost completely unnoticed.
Released on 28-10-’22 at Cinepolis Bhandup (daily 1 show) and other cinemas of Bombay thru Panorama Studios. Publicity & opening: poor. …….Also released all over. Opening was very weak everywhere.

Bollywood is killing single screen
There is 0 advance booking of the movie ‘Ram Setu’ and ‘Thank God’ in Single screen theatres. This is the fate of several Bollywood movies, and this isn’t good. Distributors aren’t giving preference to single screens these days as they earn more from multiplexes, obviously. But this tactic is killing the single screens. Filmmakers can’t deny the truth though they earn more from the multiplexes but they get much more audience from single screens, audience of single screens are also fans, followers of the Indian film Industry, they give long term benefits to the Industry. Imagine our plight with the movie releasing after few hours but there is no update on advance booking in single screens. Why is this discrimination going on ? Executive director, G7 multiplex and
Maratha Mandir
Cinema Manoj Desai is a worried man, he says, ” This discrimination is harmful for the Industry, Filmmakers and Distributors should seriously think and come out with some solutions. Furthermore, the makers of ‘Ram Setu’ are demanding more shows over ‘Thank God’. But I am not giving into this. At Maratha Mandir I have slotted two shows for each of the films, while I’ve dedicated Gaiety and Galaxy to ‘Ram Setu’ and ‘Thank God’ respectively.”
Advance booking of ‘Ram Setu’ is better than ‘Thank God’. While both the films have scored very low in advance booking, ‘Ram Setu’ is expected to collect around Rs 1.50 crore nett in advance. ‘Ram Setu’ and ‘Thank God’ are expected to score less than Rs 10 crore on it’s first day.
The trade on the whole is going through crisis, it’s really a matter of great concern.
Come on, wake up guys with a concrete plan.

Is Jacquline innocent in 200 cr moneyOctober 24, 2022 12:15 amlaundering case ?
As we know that Film star Jacqueline Fernandez is going through hell these days as his name has been included in 200 crore money laundering case. Is she innocent ? If we believe the conman Suresh Chandrasekhar then ‘YES’.
Jailed conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar, in a letter to his lawyer called Jacqueline Fernandez ‘innocent’ and stated that she has no role in connection with Rs 200 crore money laundering case. He mentioned that all the transactions, including gifts, cars and bags, were given to her as part of a relationship they had. Further, he claimed that ‘everything that is going on against Sukesh Chandrashekhar– is a political conspiracy. Thus, there is no point in dragging Jacqueline and her family into this case.’
He wrote. “It is very unfortunate that Jacqueline has been made accused in the PMLA case. As I have clearly said before, we were in a relationship and I have given her and her family gifts. What is their fault? She asked me nothing except love her and stand by her. Every single penny spent on her and her family was earned from a legitimate source of earnings and will be proven in the trial court very soon. So there is no point in dragging Jacqueline and her family into this case. In the near future, I will prove in court that Jacqueline and her family are being forcibly dragged into this case. It is not their fault as everything that is going on against me is a political conspiracy.”

GODFATHER (DUBBED)’ REVIEW | 5 October, 2022
Konidela Production Company ad Super Good Films’ Godfather (dubbed from the Telugu film of the same name; UA) is an action and family drama. The chief minister of the state has died and there’s tension brewing between the two factions of MLAs. The chief minister’s son-in-law, Jaidev (Satyadev Kancharana), wants to be the next chief minister but for that he needs more MLAs to support him. Those MLAs owe allegiance to Brahma (Chiranjeevi). Jaidev and his Man Friday, Narayana Varma (Murali Sharma), try every trick in the book to get the MLAs to support Jaidev but when they fail, they ask Jaidev’s wife, Sathyapriya (Nayanthara), to stake claim to the party chief’s chair. They expect Brahma to object but are taken aback when the latter supports Sathyapriya. Still, there’s a battle raging for the chief minister’s post. Brahma will not allow Jaidev to be the chief minister and vice versa.
Why does Brahma support Sathyapriya but not Jaidev? What is the back story of Brahma and Sathyapriya? Who ultimately wins the battle for the top post in the state?
The film is a remake of Malayalam film Lucifer. Mohan Raja has written the screenplay based on the original story by Lakshmi Bhupala and Murali Gopy. The film has a fast-paced screenplay but it also often moves on the predictable path. The back story of Brahma and Sathyapriya is interesting. Also interesting is the family drama. However, the political drama is clichéd. The suspense about Brahma comes as a shock but the culmination is a pleasant surprise. Overall, the drama does not give the Hindi film-going audience a high. Dialogues are good.
Chiranjeevi is stylish and delivers a fine performance as Brahma. He plays to the gallery. If his acting has class, his stunts and action scenes have thrill. Salman Khan, as Masoom Bhai, adds tremendous star value in a brief special appearance. He exudes charm and impresses with his action, stunts and acting. Nayanthara is excellent as Sathyapriya. She adds a lot of dignity to her character. Satyadev Kancharana stands out in the role of Jaidev. Puri Jagannadh performs ably in the role of Govardhan. Murali Sharma makes his presence felt as Narayana Varma. Tanya Ravichandran has her moments as Sathyapriya’s younger sister, Janhavi. Sayaji Shinde is natural. Samuthirakani makes his presence felt as the ACP. Prabhu Devaa in a dance number, and Warina Hussain in another dance number are very good. Sunil, Brahmaji, Shafi, Murali Mohan, Sarvadaman D. Banerji, Anasuya, Divi Vadthya, Gangavu, Indrajith Sukumaran, Parth Siddhpura, Rehan Katrawale, Rajiv Kumar Aneja, master Yuvan
baby Ahana, Mark (as Lucas), Nawab Shah (as Abdul), Bharath Reddy (as Ram Kishore), Pawan Tej Konidela, Getup Srinu, Mirchi Priya, Pathan, Dheena, Gemini Suresh, Bunny Chandu, Dawood, Hari Krishnan, Rajan Hari, Naga Mahesh, Sai, Gandhi, Srinivas Rao, Chitti, Koteswara Rao, Dhill Ramesh, Meka Ramakrishna, and the others provide very good support.
Mohan Raja’s direction is good but he has not been able to offer the audience something fresh. S. Thaman’s music is fair. Song picturisations (by Prabhu Devaa, Sekhar VJ and Sandy) are eye-filling. Nirav Shah’s cinematography is extraordinary. Action and stunt scenes (Ram-Laxman and Stunt Silva) are thrilling but lack novelty. Suresh Selvarajan’s production designing and Kakileti’s (Bommidi) art direction are up to the mark. Editing (Marthand K. Venkatesh) is sharp. Dubbing is very good.
On the whole, Godfather is for single-screen cinemas mainly. Its business will be below average.
Released on 5-10-’22 at Inox (daily 3 shows) and other cinemas of Bombay thru PVR Pictures Ltd. Publicity: dull. Opening: so-so, thanks only to the Dassera holiday. …….Also released all over. Opening was good only at places.

Tribute to the great Poet, Author and Lyricist Hasrat Jaipuri
Tribute to the great Poet, Author and Lyricist Hasrat Jaipuri
Date- September 24, 2022
Time-10 pm
Hasrat Jaipuri, the legend who wrote in the Hindi and Urdu languages. He was also a renowned film lyricist in Hindi films, where he won the Filmfare Awards for Best Lyricist twice. In 1940, Jaipuri came Mumbai, and started working as a bus conductor, earning a monthly salary of eleven rupees. He used to participate in mushairas. At a mushaira, Prithviraj Kapoor noticed Jaipuri and recommended him to his son, Raj Kapoor. Raj Kapoor was planning a musical love story, Barsaat (1949) with Shankar-Jaikishan. Jaipuri wrote his first recorded song, Jiya Beqaraar Hai. Aai bahar hai.for the film. He wrote lyrics for all Raj Kapoor films till 1971. His second song (and first duet) was Chhor Gaye Baalam.
Along with Shailendra, Jaipuri wrote lyrics for all Raj Kapoor films till 1971. After the death of Jaikishan and failures of Mera Naam Joker and Kal Aaj Aur Kal, however, Raj Kapoor turned to other lyricists and music directors. Kapoor initially wanted to call him back for Prem Rog, but later settled for another lyricist, Amir Qazalbash. Kapoor finally asked him to write lyrics for the film, Ram Teri Ganga Maili. Later, he also invited him to write three songs for the movie Henna. Jaipuri alleges that after Raj Kapoor’s death, the music composer Ravindra Jain “conspired” to “scrap” his lyrics and replace them with his own lyrics. Jaipuri has written several books of poetry, in Hindi and Urdu. He once said, “Hindi and Urdu are like two great and inseparable sisters”.
When fellow lyricist Shailendra turned producer with Teesri Kasam, he invited Jaipuri to write lyrics for the movie. He also wrote screenplay for the movie Hulchul (1951). His last film as a lyricist was Hatya: The Murder (2004).
Hasrat Jaipuri received the following awards.
Filmfare Best Lyricist Award – 1972 for Zindagi Ek Safar Hai Suhana
Filmfare Best Lyricist Award – 1966 for Baharon Phool Barsao
Josh Malihabadi Award, from Urdu Conference
Dr. Ambedkar Award, for Jhanak Jhanak Tori Baaje Payaliya, a Brajbhasha song
Jaipuri was also awarded a doctorate from the World University Round Table.
Jaipuri invested his earnings in property, on his wife’s advice. Thanks to earnings from these properties, his financial condition was sound, and therefore he was not much active as a lyricist. He was survived by two sons and a daughter live in Mumbai.
He has written 1129 songs, some of his great songs are:
1. Jya Beqaraar Hai aai bahar hai (Barsaat)

It’s not easy to draft a write-up about King of Romance Shah Rukh Khan, What new should I write which might be unknown about him ? The whole continent knows everything about Shahrukh Khan | SRK, he ruled the Indian Film Industry for almost a quarter century. After the Emperor of love and Romance Rajesh Khanna, Shah Rukh Khan is the only actor who got so much of love and praise for acting in the films of the gener of Love & Romance. As all of us know that Shah Rukh Khan is also known by the initialism SRK, apart acting he is a film producer and businessman. He is a very noble soul and behind the camera he is a dedicated social worker as well, he is always ready to help the weaker section of the society/country, but he never talk about his social works.
Shah Rukh Khan was Born on November 2, 1965 in a middle class family of New Delhi, his father Meer Taj Mohammad Khan was a freedom fighter and mother Lateef Fatima Khan was a House maker and a Social worker. She was a rank-holder magistrate from Oxford University, England.
After acting in few television series he was first auditioned by Hema Malini in Delhi. Hema Malini liked him and selected him for the film ‘Dil Ashna hai’. Though his first release was ‘Deewana’.
Hema Malini in an old interview said, ” Shah Rukh Khan is a brilliant actor, what I liked the most in him while his audition it was his hair which I liked the most.”
Hema Malini continued, “His hair gives him two different looks at the same time, if it’s on his forehead it gives him a negative look and if hair combed above towards his head he becomes a perfect choice for any romantic character, I fell in love with his two totally different persona.”
Shah Rukh Khan tied the knot with her girl friend Gauri in the year 91.
They have 3 children Aryan, Suhana and Abram.
Nothing was special in this write-up, as readers already had all these informations about their favourite actor.

Salman Khan is enjoying the status of the biggest star of the continent

Time-7 pm
Megastar Salman Khan is the biggest superstars in the continent Asia and one of the biggest star of the globe. Honestly, the title ‘Superstar’ underestimates his mesmerizing aura, infact he is more than a Superstar and that’s why media has started using the title Megastar/ Biggeststar for him, be it a Big screen or a small screen he is the highest paid actor of all times. Years ago Subhash Ghai offered him 190 crores for a film but then Salman Khan wasn’t available for another 10 years, still producers are waiting in a long queue and they are not lucky enough to start their projects with Beingsalmankhan. This unavailability is for both the screens. After making his Bollywood debut with Maine Pyar Kiya he became a big leading star. Salman Khan never chased big banners and big directors instead he worked with many unknown makers who became big names after the release of their films with him. He supported many film makers and helped them to stand in the tinsel town. And for doing some of ‘not good’ films he has had his share of ups and down, as well. But he emerged back and continued to be the superstar. In one of his old interviews, he was asked about his stardom v/s Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan and the other Khans of the past, he replied, ” Aamir and Shahrukh Khan | SRK are undoubtedly great and they have their shares of Superstardom, talking about Khans, we all aren’t bigger than Yusuf Khan (Dilip Kumar) Sanjay Khan and Feroz Khan, and the craze of Amjad Khan after Sholey was amazing, but unfortunately he met with an accident and that broke him, even then he continued giving super hits ” In one other old interview, He said, ” We all actors are not even 10 percent of Dilip Kumar, Devanand and Rajesh Khanna, they shined like Sun,Moon and stars in the galaxy.” In the same interview he said, ” There was a time when Mr. Amitabh Bachchan became the one man Industry. That period was so much of compitition, greatest Dharmendra, Vinod Khanna and many more were ruling the industry, although then there were no good technologies in the industry. ”
These statements were all from his old interviews. Now what Salman Khan has to say about himself, he was heard saying, ” Every Friday we see a new promising actor, I might be the biggest Star for now but this not forever.”
Salman Khan has lineup of films. He’s ready to deliver his Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan and Tiger 3.
And filmmakers are in the queue, waiting to hear the two words from him- “Let’s shoot.” Bollywood Reporter / www.bollywoodreporters.com says, ” Long live Salman Khan.”

Actor Director Farhan Akhtar had an idea of casting Superstar of the millennium Amitabh Bachchan and King Shah Rukh Khan together in the third version of the film Don.
As all of us know that #AmitabhBachchan was the Hero of the first Don (1978). That Don ended with a different climax, it portraid the humble Vijay survives and Don dies.
In SRK’s Don we saw vice versa. Therefore, it’s not clear whether or not Mr. Amitabhbachchan
was chosen to play the role from the first Don. Perhaphs #FarhanAkhtar thought of casting Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan in Don 3.

Guys, It’s a good news for almost everyone that The Kapil Sharma Show 3 will telecast from 10th of September. As reported by us earlier. Superstar Akshay Kumar will be there to promote his upcoming film Cuttputtli. As we all know Akshay Kumar is also a good comedy actor, he is admired for his great timings. It’s a bad luck for Akshay Kumar as his recently released films didn’t do good at the box-office. Akshay blamed Kapil Sharma for all of his unsuccessful films. He told Kapil in his signature style by keeping a smile on his face in Punjabi accent that Kapil Sharma always jinx his luck, and cause his films to fall down at the box office windows. Let me tell you once again that Akshay Kumar will be seen on The Kapil Sharma Show with his Cuttputlli co-star Rakul Preet Singh for the promotions of their film.
The promo of The Kapil Sharma show has been released recently. In the promo Kapil is seen welcoming Akshay and Rakul. Kapil asked Akshay, “Brother, how do you manage to look younger on every birthday ?” While keeping a look at the audience Akshay replied, “ This man jinxes everything I do, my films, my money, now none of my films are working.”
Akshay Kumar is a great person, it looks like he is enjoying even his bad days (He knows that it’s just a bend and not the end ). On Akshay’s Kidding with a jolly mood Kapil too starts laughing including others.

My Time isn’t good: Prakash Jha
September 9, 2022
Time-1:00 am
Renowned Film maker Prakash Jha is out of the scene since long. After making successful movies like Apharan and Ganga Jal he was lost somewhere for unknown reasons.
He has done other projects as well but they were not noticed by the Masses. Talking to journalists he said, “ My time isn’t good. I am not working with so called Superstars. I have stopped chasing them any more. They don’t want to work with me either. Stars like Ajay Devgn, Ranveer Singh, and Ranbir Kapoor are not easily available to me because I don’t make films like that, they don’t fit in my scripts. Salman Khan can’t go for new agreements as he has no dates for another 8, 10 years. Akshay Kumar doesn’t fit in my format of making as I don’t want to finish a film in 30 days’ time because these actors wants to move on some other film. I want to make my movies the way I feel comfortable. There are Many actors who don’t want to work on any experimental scripts because they are caged in with their image. They are scared to opt for such a film which might give them a new image.”
Prakash Jha shared his opinion about Laal Singh Chaddha not being liked by the audience. The filmmaker said, “ It requires a research and a complete study about a film which is genuinely good and does not do well, Why ? because of the boycott gang ? Honestly speaking you can’t stop someone going to watch a particular film.
#boycott has not happened. There was a boycott call for Laal Singh Chaddha. One was concerned about it, movie bugs were worried, but then, even the people who watched the film did not speak very highly of it. People realise from the trailer or from the publicity what the film has to offer, I think the film wasn’t suitable for Indians, the film has done good business out side India, it’s being appreciated in other countries.”
Prakash Jha further said, ” Do you know many Good films like Mera Naam Joker, Lamhe, Sadma, Kranti, Silsila didn’t succeed at the box-office , it doesn’t mean that those were bad films, there were other reasons for their unsuccess.”

BRAHMASTRA: PART ONE – SHIVA’ REVIEW | 9
BRAHMASTRA: PART ONE – SHIVA’ REVIEW | 9 September, 2022
By
KOMAL NAHTA
Star Studios, Dharma Productions, Prime Focus and Starlight Pictures’ Brahmastra: Part One – Shiva (UA) is a fantasy adventure film with a dash of mythology. It is also a love story.
Shiva (Ranbir Kapoor), a modern, fun-loving orphan, has a special connection with the element of fire. Among other things, he does not get burnt by fire. He also holds the power to awaken the Brahmastra, a very potent weapon. Junoon (Mouni Roy), the queen of dark forces, is also in search of the Brahmastra. She has evil designs for which she needs the Brahmastra. Will Shiva allow Junoon to realise her goals?
Shiva falls head over heels in love with the rich and beautiful Isha (Alia Bhatt). He soon realises that Isha is the ‘button’ of his connection with fire. What happens to their love story?
Ayan Mukerji has written an original story set in the Astra Verse. Therefore, the story is fresh. The love story and the story of the Brahmastra are so closely knit that one blends into the other. That’s a fantastic plus point of the story. Ayan Mukerji’s screenplay is fast-paced and has several layers. The drama keeps the audiences engrossed and involved so much that it doesn’t give them a minute to get bored, especially in the first half. Yes, it does dip a bit after interval but that doesn’t much dilute the impact of the well-written screenplay. After the prologue, the first few reels are light and laced with fun, frolic and romance. The element of fun and humour takes a back seat once the story of Brahmastra and Agni Astra starts in full swing. However, even after that story starts in full force, the romantic track keeps moving parallely. Although there are no tear-jerking emotions, the emotional thread and undercurrent are so strong that they keep the viewers invested in the drama. The revelation of the back story of Shiva’s parents, the track of the shankh, the visions which Shiva keeps getting are all so wonderful that the audience enjoys them thoroughly. The placement of the Kesariya and Deva Deva songs are so perfect that the viewers’ hearts rejoice when they start. Even though the climax is lengthy (it is of almost 30 minutes), it sustains the interest of the audience because it is very interesting as well as impactful. Hussain Dalaal’s dialogues are simple but engaging and appealing.
Ranbir Kapoor lives the role of Shiva. He gets into the skin of the character and comes out trumps with a fantastic performance which will be loved by one and all. His expressions are so real that one can’t help but fall in love with his acting. Alia Bhatt looks supremely pretty and acts with effortless ease. She uses her body language and her voice modulation so effectively that they enhance her performance manifold. Her costumes are just too lovely. Amitabh Bachchan lends tremendous support as Guru. His acting has a touch of class. Mouni Roy is pretty effective as Junoon. Nagarjuna Akkineni makes his mark as Artist (Anish Shetty). Shah Rukh Khan shines in a cameo appearance as scientist Mohan Bhargav. Dimple Kapadia has a tiny role; she has been wasted. Saurav Gurjar (as Zor) and Rouhallah Gazi (as Raftaar) are adequate. Gurfateh Pirzada (as Sher), Lehar Khan (as Raveena), Aditi Joshi (as Rani), Markand Soni (as Santha), and Stanzin Delek (as Tenzing) provide decent support. Others are alright.
Ayan Mukerji’s direction is splendid. He has made a unique film for the Hindi film-going audience and has complemented the high-on-visual-effects drama with a heart-touching story, juxtaposing both beautifully. His narration is remarkable. Pritam’s music comprises the super-hit Kesariya song, the hit Deva Deva number (which will soon become super-hit) and other songs which are very appealing. The two best songs being played during the end rolling titles deserves special mention. Amitabh Bhattacharya’s lyrics are exceptionally good. Song picturisations (Ganesh Acharya, Brinda and Adil Shaikh) are very eye-filling. Background music (Pritam with Jim Satya, Prasad S., Meghdeep Bose, Tanuj Tiku, Ketan Sodha and Sunny M.R.) is outstanding. The use of Sanskrit shlokas in the background score at many places makes the drama appear more divine and absolutely compelling. Cinematography (by V. Manikandan, Pankaj Kumar, Sudeep Chatterjee, Vikash Nowlakha and Patrick Duroux) is heavenly. Computer graphics, visual effects and visual effects and 3D effects (by DNEG and Redefine) are phenomenal and comparable to those in Hollywood films. Action scenes and stunts (choreographed by Dan Bradley, Diyan Hristov and Parvez Shaikh) are very thrilling. Amrita Mahal Nakai’s production designing, and Rohan Kate’s art direction are of a very good standard. Prakash Kurup’s editing is super-sharp.
Brahmastra: Part One – Shiva is a super-duper hit. It will do phenomenal business at the box-office and will also take Indian cinema several notches higher on the international map as far as visual effects are concerned. The mind-blowing visual appeal of the film, the fantastic first half, its two extraordinary songs, and the love story of Ranbir-Alia (coming as it does soon after their real-life marriage) will ensure that it gets immense love from the public. Business of the 3D version in the initial days will be far, far more than that of the 2D version. It has the potential to touch or almost touch the Rs. 100-crore mark in the first weekend, and touch or almost touch the Rs. 200-crore mark by the end of the second weekend. For those who are concerned not just about box-office collections but also about cost-revenue economics, let it be said that for correct business analysis, part of the huge investment in the film is actually to be amortised by dividing it among three films — parts one, two and three.
Released on 9-9-’22 at Regal (daily 4 shows) and other cinemas of Bombay thru UTV Software Communications Ltd. Publicity: outstanding. Opening: extraordinary places, very good at others. …….Also released all over. Opening was phenomenal at many places.

Actor Suchitra Pillai is in news for her Naqab.
We met her and asked, ” What’s so special about Naqab ?”
She said, ” Naqaab is a Voice drama or it’s better to pronounce it’s an audiobook, which is available on Audible”.
“What’s the story line and concept of Naqab?” I asked her. She spoke, “Naqab is very interesting, I am damn sure you’ll love it. Infact It’s a psychological thriller about psychologist Margot Scott and her various patients and family members.”
I asked, ” Why are you so sure about it’s success as you just said that we’ll love it ?”
She replied, ” I and our production team has experienced Naqab as a very interesting and entertaining product.” “Please tell us something more about the story.” I requested, Suchitra Pillai replied, “Well, Margot Scott and his various patients and family members, keep telling her lies. One of those lies catapults the whole story into a major thing, that brings the psychological thriller aspect to it. Naqab is very special for me as well because I get the opportunity to play every character.”
“You have worked in films, tv shows and stage plays, how was this new experience?” I asked her, She spoke, ” Yes, It’s all voice so it’s more intense than being on stage or being in front of a camera because you don’t have your face or any expressions to tell the story. I had to create everything through my voice, and the out put was more than satisfactory.”

Time- 4: 45 pm.
We may lodge complaints against the conspiracy done to defame Laal Singh Chaddha.
Viacom18 Studios officials have strictly spoken, ” We have no doubt that there has been some conspiracy pre-planned against Aamir Khan starrer ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’ and now that conspiracy is being practised to defame a nice film and finest performance by it’s actors, we may lodge the complaint against this mischievous activity done by some anti social elements, we also deny reports of external stakeholders demanding compensation ‘Laal Singh Chaddha’, this is all rubbish, totally rumours.” The official continued,” The film has made approximately Rs 55 crore in six days of it’s release.” The official further told, ” the rumours are ‘baseless’.”
Viacom18 Studios Chief Operating Officer #AjitAndhare told to the media, “Laal Singh Chaddha has ‘no external distributors’, the studio itself has distributed the film. And ‘no money is lost in the first place’, and that the film is running in theatres both in India and internationally and doing good.”
A source revealed, “Aamir hasn’t charged an upfront fee for Laal Singh Chaddha. The actor normally relies on backend revenue.” The source says, “Aamir Khan’s films has always performed exceptionally well at the box office. Like #AamirKhan remuneration strategy was followed by Tom Cruise on Top Gun: Maverick, that resulted with him earning $100 million, as the film did record-breaking box-office performance.” Sources says, “Laal Singh Chaddha will hopefully break even, once ancillary revenue is taken into account.”
Laal Singh Chaddha is an official remake of the Hollywood hit Forrest Gump, Laal Singh Chaddha has made Rs 56 crore domestically and around Rs 45 crore from overseas territories, till today 4:30 pm. Another source said, ” Laal Singh Chaddha will make good money on a
It’s China release as well, because Aamir is still an exceptionally popular star there, after the record-breaking success of Secret Superstar and Dangal.”
So guys, note it down that Laal Singh Chaddha is not only a good film it’s a HIT FILM as well.
Those who haven’t seen the film yet GO AND WATCH IT WITH YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS, Otherwise you shall miss a very well made film which will definitely entertain you. You’ll laugh, weep and clap at the incredible performance of Mr. Perfectionist Aamir Khan.

Shahrukh and Salman Friendship
RUBY ZAIDI writes..
Applause for Salman Khan and Shahrukh Khan !!
Superstar Shah Rukh Khan never publicize his Social/Charity works and he believes in doing charity silently. But somehow we know he has his own organization Meer Foundation for the acid victims. Once in an interview he said, “I don’t like talking about it (Social activity and charity ). A lot of people and my friends always tell me I should do photographs and stuff when I meet some people. But I don’t believe in it. It is a true thing that if I believe in a cause, I should do it silently and not use my persona as an actor to advocate that.”
Such a nice thought, that’s why God, the Almighty has bestowed him with prosperities.
Shahrukh Khan | SRK has set up his Meer Foundation in the name of his father (a freedom fighter) is a globally known project, Shah Rukh Khan received an award from UNESCO for his silent charity work. #iamsrk has launched a bone marrow transplant center at Nanavati Hospital, Mumbai in 2017. He also has a ward in his mother Lateef Fatima Khan’s name in the same hospital.
However, what he shares beyond his stardom is kindness and love for humanity. In the same manner Megastar Salman Khan is known for various philanthropic works including his foundation ‘Being Human.’ Now Salman Khan became the first celebrity to donate his bone marrow for a little girl Pooja who needed it. He had promised to donate bone marrow just a few days ago and he fulfilled his promise by donating his bone marrow right after. When Salman Khan got to know about Pooja he asked his football team to donate their bone marrow for the young girl. But, they all backed down at the eleventh hour, then this man Salman Khan known for his Kind heart donated his bone
marrow. He also urged and requested his followers to donate bone marrow whenever they could to help someone in need.
Like Shah Rukh Salman has been bestowed with lot’s and lot’s of prosperities by God, the Almighty. My prayers are always with all these Superstars who never hesitate in helping the need ful, may God bless them with sound health, more wealth and infinite happiness.
…..My salute with lot’s of love for them.

Film Lal singh chaddha booking start
Your queries replied by KOMAL NAHTA..
Which between Laal Singh Chaddha and Raksha Bandhan will take a bigger opening on 11th August?
– Since 11th August is the day of the Raksha Bandhan festival, it will be a holiday. So let us pray that both, LAAL SINGH CHADDHA and RAKSHA BANDHAN, open to bumper houses.
Why does the trade always say that it is better for two big films to not clash on the same day?
– Big films need more number of shows per day. If two big films hit the screens on the same day, shows get divided. In other words, none of the two films gets the optimum number of shows it deserves. Also, there are already running films too which need to be accommodated along with the two big releases.
Does Bollywood need to worry about the rate at which films are flopping?
– Definitely, Bollywood needs to worry. And not just about the rate at which films are flopping but also at how terribly they are bombing. Shows being cancelled at cinemas owing to absence of audience is becoming routine, and that’s not a good sign.

Now all the eyeballs are on the reviews and box-office collection of the movie #Shamshera. Bollywood is going low, let’s hope Shamshera shall do some good bussiness. Director #karanmalhotra is sure about the output. Sanjay Dutt is also quite optimistic. While the film is not his first work after recovering from cancer, he filmed portions of the film after he was declared cancer-free. Recalling Sanjay’s spirit on the sets, ‘Shamshera’ director Karan Malhotra called him a superman.
Truly ! Sanjay Dutt isn’t a normal human being. We all are witness of his struggle and severe sufferings, since his childhood, he was born to the busiest parents ie Sunil Dutt and Nargis, they were the best parents but were really very busy with their shootings and social works, they had not enough time for their kids, I am not blaming them for bad parenting. Sunil Dutt and Nargis tried their best to give their children all they needed, but these two were also committed to their profession and social work as well, Priyanka was growing cool but Sanjay Dutt missed his parents, being a boy he was more exposed to the bad boys of the Bandra. He was mislead by filthy guys, drugs addiction happend, then rehab episode wasn’t an easy one. However, he came out of it but he suffered alot. He lost his mother very early. He can’t even shared his happiness of the success of his debut film ‘Rocky’ with her mother. Then Tears were his true friend, after that illegal arms episode came, then unsuccessful relationships gave him shocks. His wife Ekta lost the battle with Cancer. His girl friend Riya Pillai left him amid his worst days. Then Sanjay lost his father, he was the only true support for him. Sanjay’s daughter wasn’t with him. A daughter not accepting his father, is a pain only a father facing the same situation can better understand. Then came the worst period.. Conviction and then Prison. Jail was hell for him. Even then he survived… Is he a normal human being ? No, a normal person had died very early by heart attack or brain hammurrage or suicide But against all odds and corns he not only survived, also, he came back with all the makeover on his face just to restart his career.
Superman is just a fiction, infact Sanjay Dutt is an angel, a powerful angel to whom God gave all the problems in one life just to examine his favorite soul. Now God have bestowed him a good wife, kids and moments to relax. Hats off to you man ! You are a real SUPERMAN, Love you loads.

We all know ace film maker Mahesh Bhatt directed Sushmita Sen’s debut film, ‘Dastak’. He has offered his two cents on beauty queen former Miss Universe,
actor Sushmita Sen’s relationship with a controversial businessman Lalit Modi. When Mr. Bhatt directed Sushmita in her first film, Dastak, then she wasn’t aware of the new medium cinema at all, Mahesh Bhatt gave her initial and very important tips, he almost trained her how to face the camera, how to deliver her lines, he also taught her the body language of the character. This isn’t new for Mahesh Bhatt, he always do serious extra work on his actors, that’s why we are able to watch actors with extra grace in his movies. Sushmita Sen was lucky enough to debut under the direction of Mahesh Bhatt, She became one of the top most stars during her active days. Mahesh Bhatt recently to a journalist that once upon a time she was very near and dear to the director Vikram Bhatt. Now once again she is in news for another reason. Recently, Lalit Modi took the internet by storm, when he announced that he is dating Sushmita Sen. She hasn’t confirmed the relationship in as many words, but has since said that she’s happy and would appreciate it people stopped nosing around in her business.
Yes, rightly said Sushmita, we respect your privacy, may God bless you with happiness all around you.

Superstar Singer’ – A reality show loved by everyone.
‘Superstar Singer’ on Sony, is the popular reality show, it’s being loved by everyone, it is watched by the audience by keeping their remote controls away from them as no one wanna switch any other channel amidst the telecast of this talent (Singers) hunt show. The show is brilliantly Directed by Neeraj Sharma and Produced by Gautam Mrinal for Frames Production. I have been watching the show since it’s inaugural episode, it’s a wonderful show, undoubtedly. All the contestants aka little angels are jewels of the country especially Mani, Rituraj, Shoeb Ali, Chetan Vaish, Mohammad Faiz, Sayisha Gupta, Aryan Nanda, Pranjal Biswas, Harshita Bhattacharya, Pratyashu Anand, Vishwa Jha and Rohan Das. Captain Pawan deep, Salman Ali, Mohammad Danish, Sayali Kamble, Arunita have done their jobs of mentors very well as the contestants are delivering their songs amazingly, it looks like they all are fully prepared for the recording studio to record their songs as playback singers. Musicians and technical team should be appreciated as they are doing their jobs wonderfully. Applauses and Hats off to the Judges living legend Alka Yagnik, King of music compositions Himesh Reshamiya, Superstar Singer Javed Ali. These three Judges have done their job to the level of perfection, they have auditioned and groomed the raw talents from all over the country. That’s why the show is running with highest TRP. What we like the most in judges is- Javed Ali tries to give his feedback with his inputs by singing the same song by praising the contestants with his kind words, like ,” it wasn’t easy, it was very difficult, but you have done it.” and amid his comments he give his tips to almost every contestant.We all know Javed Ali is one of the very few finest playback singers of the Indian film Industry. Once Rahat Ali said, ” Javed Ali is among ten top singers India has ever produced.” Alka Yagnik, roop the great singer is also always ready to praise and she gives her unbiased comments with tips and appreciations. Himesh Reshmia, we all know is a rockstar, he is an emotional guy, contestants and audience admire him , he is an Asset to the show. Himesh is a College of performing Arts. He tries to entertain the audience and contestants by his precious inputs.The show is being incredibly hosted by handsome and very talented Aditya Narayan who leaves no stone unturned by his mesmerizing hosting.
Yesterday we saw the ‘mother’s special’ the episode was full of great numbers. All the contestants were amazingly fabulous in this episode as usual. Judges Himesh Reshmia and Javed Ali were there to boost up the morals of the little Angles, unfortunately Alka Yagnik wasn’t present, in place of her actress Jaya Prada was seen on the chair of Alka Yagnik.
What we unlike in this historical episode was the presence of the poet Manoj Muntashir. As he doesn’t deserve to host this kind of a show with his same written lines that he has narrated on few other tv channels and private shows many times before. He might be a good choice for a ‘Mushaira’ or a ‘Kavi Sammelan’ , but not for this show, for sure. Although he isn’t a good poet as well , in the name of Hindi Kavitaye’n, he keeps on pronouncing (speaking) his incorrect urdu shayarees and those too desperately need to be grammatically corrected. In the mother’s special he has done many mistakes,(if disagree then kindly rewatch the episode on YouTube )
The most disliked version was – comparing Mother and father, in his Tukbandi Shayari, he said something which meant that a mother can die for her sons/daughters but a father RUBY ZAIDI writes..

The show is being watched by youngers,elders, teenagers ( all age groups ) as well. Manoj Muntashir is a wrong choice for these shows.
Let Aditya Narayan do his job as he is doing extremely well with fun floric and energy. Aditya has huge fan followings, please don’t create disinterest for the international audience by giving footage to an average poet like Muntashir.

“From the age of nine, he was just thrown into it.Struggle is a very thin and simple word he slept on the roads of Bombay (Mumbai). It was the worst life, like an orphan but he made it, like he conquered and emerged as a winner, we are proud of him.” Javed Jaffiri was telling about his dad Jagdeep, he continued
“After Partition, everything was wiped out. He was on the streets. He was on a footpath of Mumbai with his mother. He had to start from scratch,” Jaaved said, adding, “He didn’t have childhood. He just had responsibility. He didn’t have time to play because he had to fend for himself and his mother. So obviously when he saw us as children, he tried to give us everything.”
He continued, “He was busy working a lot when we were growing up. We did spend some time. Like if we had holidays and he was shooting in some other city, we would accompany him as a part of the vacation because that was the only way we could spend time with him. That was the only holidays we had. Once the shoot would get over, we would hang around for a week or more to spend time together.” Javed stopped for awhile, ” My father acted in around 400 or even more movies, he started as a child actor rest is the history.” A pause and then he said,”We miss him a lot but he lives in our heart and brain.”

When we talk about beautiful and Handsome stars , we all have our takes, but there have been few stars, for them without arguments one shall agree and accept about their extraordinary looks,appearences, like Madhubala, Devanand, Kabir Bedi, Parveen Babi, Vinod Khanna, Dharmendra and few more.We all will agree about their mesmerizing beauty and persona.
In the same list we shall also find the most handsome and style icon Feroz Khan and Dream girl Hema Malini as well.
In a superhit movie
‘Dharmatma’, Feroz Khan and Hema Malini worked together, while watching the movie it looks like this one is the best pair that Indian film industry have had ever produced. ‘Dharmatma’ had all the hit numbers like ‘Tumne kabhi kisi se pyaar kiya hai’, ‘kya qhoob lagti ho badi sunder dikhti ho’.
Although, Rekha also played an important role in the movie, she was the second lady love opposite Feroz Khan, but in every scene Feroz Khan and Hema Malini together look like the best pair ever casted for an Indian Film.
‘Dharmatma’ was Directed and Produced by Feroz Khan himself. The film is also known for one of the best movies of the actor Premnath, he played the title role with elegance.

THREE LESSONS BOLLYWOOD SHOULD LEARN FROM THE SOUTH FILM INDUSTRY.
So, action films don’t run in multiplexes. Right?
People are tired of the tried and tested stories, they crave for new stories even if those stories do not fit in the Indian milieu, otherwise they won’t come to the cinemas. Right?
Stars are the biggest pulling power for the audience to frequent cinemas. Right?
Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.
The stupendous success of the Hindi dubbed versions of Pushpa: The Rise Part 1, RRR and K.G.F. Chapter 2 has taught Bollywood writers, producers, directors and stars three lessons.
The first lesson is that it is wrong to assume that action films do not run in multiplexes. All the three aforementioned recent hits from the South are out-and-out action films. In fact, all the three South hits have over-the-top action and stunts. But a common factor between the three South successes is that they are not replete with mindless action. Each of the three films has a solid story-line and superb screenplays woven around those story-lines. So what Bollywood forgot to appreciate is that action films devoid of good content face rejection in the multiplexes, not action films with great content.
The second lesson is that films rooted in Indian culture and traditions work big time with the paying public. Western influences are alright but filmmakers should not forget that if Indians like traditional food, observe customs and follow rituals, why would they not like to see all this on the screen? Pushpa, RRR and K.G.F. Chapter 2 have stories which are very very Indian at heart. Their content did not seem to have a foreign hangover. In fact, the stories of all the three South hits do not boast of much novelty. But their presentations are so modern, so stylish. Yes, although the content of all the three films was rooted in Indianness, the films were technically very advanced. Many Bollywood stars, producers, directors and writers seem to have forgotten to make films for the single-screen audiences. They thought, the moolah comes from multiplexes and so, they must make films for the multiplex audiences. But they forgot to appreciate the fact that the multiplex audiences also like what the single-screen cinema audiences love. The only difference is that the public which frequents multiplexes, likes to watch films in a more comfortable environment. Their tastes as far as content is concerned is still the same, they still crave for Indian content. The so-called divide between multiplex and single-screen cinema audiences was created by Bollywood filmmakers and stars, it did not exist in the public minds. Consequently, Bollywood stars and filmmakers, who feel, they cater to the multiplex audience, have, more often than not, been making films for an audience which exists in small numbers only. If one takes a look at universal Hindi blockbusters like Dangal, Ek Tha Tiger, Tiger Zinda Hai, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, etc., one will realise that they all have content that is Indian at heart and rooted in the heartland of India.
The third lesson which the three South films have taught Bollywood is that the script is more important than the stars. The South makers attach a lot of importance to their heroes and stars, but they treat their scripts as sacrosanct. The stars of South films, who are treated like demi-Gods, dare not dictate terms to their directors as far as the film’s making is concerned. But the situation in Bollywood is different. Stars here often change scenes and even scripts according to their whims and fancies. One need not go into details of how scenes have been added to please a Bollywood star. This does not happen in the South because filmmakers treat their work as worship. One has often heard Bollywood filmmakers overlook finer details because they feel, their stars would be able to pull off the most improbable acts simply because they are stars. No South filmmaker would do that because nobody in the South film industries allows his star to feel bigger than the script.
The sooner Bollywood stars, filmmakers, producers and writers learn these three lessons, the better it would be for them. South films and South film stars are giving Bollywood films and stars tough competition. In fact, it should not be long before South stars became pan-India stars. The only way for Bollywood stars to compete with them is to emulate the plus points of the South industry people.
