Brahmastra was in the making for eight years, and is all set to finally hit the theatres this year. The mythological drama starring Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt has been in the news for many reasons. When the trailer was released online, the film also gave rise to many fan theories. From fans pointing the cameo of Deepika Padukone to speculations of Shah Rukh Khan playing Shiva in the film, many of these theories went viral on social media. Recently, yet another video clip associated with the film that is doing the rounds is that of Shah Rukh Khan transforming into Vanar Astra.

While rumours have always been rife that Shah Rukh Khan will be playing Vanar Astra, a video surfaced online showcasing the transformation. The trailer of Brahmastra had already given a glimpse of Vanar Astra but it did not show the face of Shah Rukh Khan. However, this video starts by showing Shah Rukh Khan, whose face looks injured and it shows his sudden transformation from a normal human to the Vanar Astra aka someone who poses the powers of Hanuman.

The video found its way to Twitter, a day ago, and since then, fans can’t stop gushing about it. However the credibility of the same is yet to be unknown as people are still unaware if it is truly a part of the film or the creativity of a talented fan.

As filmmaker Ayan Mukerji had earlier explained, Brahmastra showcases different Astras around us with Ranbir Kapoor playing the Agni Astra. The film features him in the role of Shiva whereas Alia Bhatt plays his love interest Isha. It also stars Amitabh Bachchan, Nagarjuna, and Mouni Roy with Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone in a powerful special appearance. Based on Indian mythology, the film is a part of a trilogy with Brahmastra, Shiva – 1 being the first part of the franchise.

Directed by Ayan Mukerji and produced by Karan Johar under his banner Dharma Productions, the film is slated to hit the big screens on September 9.

While the world wonders what fate has in store for Ayan Mukerji’s sci-fi-spiritual fantasy Brahmastra when it finally opens on 9 September, its producer Karan Johar stands firmly by the director.

“Ayan has given seven years of his life to Brahmastra. If he wanted, he could have made three or four films during that time. Instead he chose to focus on one project, his dream project. Ayan has lived breathed slept with Brahmastra. It is unlike anything we’ve seen in cinema. In terms of budget vision and scale it is the biggest film I’ve made,” says Karan Johar.

Karan is full of protective affection for his blue-eyed director. “Ayan has not moved socially upwards at all. He is driving the same car that he used to seven years ago. He hasn’t moved into an upscale home either. He lives now where he lived when he came to become a director. Yeh Jawani Hai Diwani which he made for my production house Dharma nine years ago was a huge hit. Ayan didn’t use that as a mean to make money. Instead he dedicated his life to making Brahmastra. I know the people in the industry are waiting to see what he has done. I know there are a lot of doubts surrounding the film. But I am confident Brahmastra will be a game changer.”

The two releases, Laal Singh Chaddha and Raksha Bandhan took a lukewarm start at the box office on August 11. The two films failed to clock a combined total of Rs. 20 crores on the opening day, failing to even make the use of Raksha Bandhan Holiday. The opening day performance has shocked the Hindi Film Industry and put trade in a state of confusion. And now, we have got another shocking news for all our readers.

According to our sources at a tracking agency, the cinema owners have voluntarily reduced the shows of both Laal Singh Chaddha and Raksha Bandhan due to the poor show at the box office. "Both the films were released with around 10,000 shows across the country and neither of them warranted this sort of showcasing. Even on the opening day, the occupancy was as low as 10 to 12 people in maximum shows. Seeing the no-show, the exhibitors decided to reduce the showcasing of both the films on the second day to save up on the overheads and increase occupancy in the limited shows," a trade source informed Bollywood Hungama.

While approximately 1300 shows of Laal Singh Chaddha have been reduced, Raksha Bandhan has seen a show reduction of 1000 shows across the country. "Neither of the films warranted such a wide release. While Laal Singh Chaddha is a wash out in the mass belts, Raksha Bandhan is facing a no-show in some multiplexes," the source told us, and added, "In-fact, despite the voluntary show reduction, many shows of both the films were cancelled on Saturday morning due to no audience. It's a disastrous scenario on the ground."

Urvashi Rautela recently gave a candid interview exclusively to Bollywood Hungama about her being the highest paid Tamil actress. In the same, the actress referred to a certain ‘RP’ without revealing his entire name but the hint was more than enough for audiences to connect the dots. Rumours of Urvashi dating a cricketer have been doing the rounds for quite some time. After the actress recalled an incident where she made him wait for an entire night. Owing to the references made by her during the interview, the cricketer took to social media to react to the post but ended up deleting it. On the other hand, Urvashi too responded to his post.

Referring to a certain ‘RP’ in the exclusive Bollywood Hungama interview, Urvashi Rautela said, “I was shooting in Varanasi and had a show in New Delhi. I was shooting full day and in the night I had to get ready for the show. Mr. RP was waiting for me at the lobby. But I was so tired after the show that I slept off. I got several calls.” When she was asked about who is Mr. RP, she refrained from taking the name but continued, “When I woke up I saw about 16 to 17 missed calls. Out of respect, I felt bad that someone was waiting for me. I am not one of those girls who will let someone wait just because he is a guy. I always have respect for the other person. So I decided to meet him in Mumbai because I couldn’t meet him there. However, after the meeting, a lot of paps were around and the next day, it became big news.” She went on to add “Sometimes, media often intervenes and at times, they end up spoiling when there are chances of something good happening.”

Followed by her candid interview, Rishabh Pant took to Instagram story saying, “It’s funny how people lie in interviews just for some meager popularity and for hitting the headlines. Sad how some people are so thirsty for fame and name. May god bless them. #merapichachorhoBehen #jhutkibhilimithotihai.” While he added this to the story, he immediately also took the post down.

On the other hand, Urvashi Rautela gave it back to the cricketer adding, “Chotu Bhaiyaa should play bat ball. Main koyi Munni nahi hoon badnam hone with young kiddo darling. Tere liye #Rakshabandhan Mubarak Ho. #RPChotubhaiyaa #Cougarhunter #Donttakeadvantageofasilentgirl.”

Chotu bhaiyaa should play bat ball ????. Main koyi munni nahi hoon badnam hone with young kiddo darling tere liyee

It is a known fact that Saif Ali Khan never misses Rakshabandhan celebrations with sister Soha Ali Khan. Both the actors have often made it a point to celebrate the festivities and keep up with the tradition of ‘Rakhi’ despite their tight schedules. And now it seems that they are passing it on to the next generation. Ever since the arrival of Inaaya, who is the daughter of Soha, the actress has made it a point that she ties Rakhi to Taimur Ali Khan, who is the elder son of Saif and Kareena Kapoor Khan. And now Jeh is the youngest addition to them.

After the birth of Jeh, Inaaya Naumi Kemmu has been tying rakhis to Taimur Ali Khan as well as the younger son of Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan. And recently Soha Ali Khan shared photos of the festivities. While the sons looked adorable in pink kurtas, Inaaya looked equally cute in her peach top. Saif Ali Khan looked suave in his blue kurta. The Rang De Basanti actress shared a series of photographs which also included some fun moments of Taimur and Inaaya as they were seen playing together.

Besides these photos, Soha Ali Khan also shared another lovely post where we can see Inaaya also tying rakhis to all of their house help. Soha posted these photos, adding, “To all those who care for us and protect us - a very happy rakshabandhan! #happyrakshabandhan #rakshabandhan #rakhi.”

On the other hand, Sara Ali Khan, who is also a part of these celebrations generally, is currently in New York. She shared a series of heartfelt posts about Rakshabandhan, a day ago where she also posted her Rakhi memories with her father Saif Ali Khan and younger brothers Ibrahim Ali Khan, Taimur Ali Khan and Jeh.

Laal Singh Chaddha, starring Aamir Khan, has finally been released in the cinemas. It is an official remake of Forrest Gump (1994) though the writers have made a few changes here and there and Indianized the narrative. A significant scene in Laal Singh Chaddha however gives a strong déjà vu of the recent controversy of Ranveer Singh.

In Forrest Gump, the protagonist is in the army and one of his teammates passes him an adult magazine in a scene. Forrest sees the picture of his crush, Jenny, on it. The voiceover of Forrest mentions that Jenny had posed for the magazine seductively in her college sweater. As a result, she was expelled from college.

In Laal Singh Chaddha, the protagonist is handed over a newspaper. His colleague points him at the controversial naked picture of Milind Soman and Madhu Sapre. Laal Singh Chaddha, however, realizes that the same issue had also published a backless picture of his childhood love, Rupa. The article along with the picture informed Laal that a legal notice was slapped on Rupa by certain organizations for promoting vulgarity.

This track in the film reminds one of Ranveer Singh’s recent nude photoshoot controversy. The talented actor’s multiple photos were published by a magazine, wherein he was seen posing without any clothing. While many appreciated this move, a lawyer complained to the cops, after which an FIR was lodged against the actor. After this development, several personalities came forward in support of Ranveer and felt that the police complaint against him is unjustified.

Interestingly, Milind Soman and Madhu Sapre’s hot picture had also led to a lot of brouhaha. In 1995, both the models had done a bold, nude photoshoot for Turf Shoes and were aesthetically covered by a python. The social service branch of the Mumbai police had registered a case against them, citing indecency. The case lasted for 14 years, after which the courts acquitted them.

Aamir Khan is all set to return to the silver screen after three-and-a-half year-long break with his film Laal Singh Chaddha.

The special screening was attended by Kareena, Saif Ali Khan, Naga Chaitanya, Kiran Rao, Ira Khan and Junaid Khan. Among others, Deepika and Ranveer made a stylish entry at the star-studded event. They were also joined by Ranveer’s family.

Deepika and Ranveer came at the celebrity-studded event wearing monochromatic outfits and exuded power couple charm with their sharp suits. Deepika was spotted wearing a pastel green pantsuit, and she appeared to be quite the boss chick. A jacket with notch lapel collars, padded shoulders, a plunging neckline, folded full-length sleeves, and an oversized silhouette is part of the star's outfit. She layered her blazer over a white lace bralette. In the end, Deepika went for a matching pair of pastel green straight-leg trousers, pointed white high heels, Louis Vuitton shoulder bag, and watch with a metallic strap, bracelet with a stylish aesthetic, diamond rings, and tiny ear studs. The outfit Deepika is wearing is from Gauge 81 and costs Rs. 78,729.

Ranveer chose a black shirt and pant set to compliment his wife in his very offbeat fashion. He selected a shirt with a collar, a high-low hemline, long sleeves, and a button-up front. His outfit for the event included skinny-fit black jeans, tinted sunglasses, black dress shoes, diamond ear studs, a well-groomed beard, and a backswept hairstyle.

Laal Singh Chaddha, the forthcoming movie starring Aamir Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan, is scheduled to hit theatres on August 11. The iconic Hollywood film The Forrest Gump, starring Tom Hanks, has an official Hindi version in the form of Laal Singh Chaddha.

While his daughter Suhana Khan is keen on following his footsteps, his son Aryan Khan has always maintained that he was never interested in acting unlike superstar Shah Rukh Khan. The star kid was always keen on getting behind the camera and if recent reports are to be believed, Aryan has already kicked off his first project. The star kid wants to make his debut as a writer of a web show just like his sister who is making her acting debut with the Netflix film The Archies.

As per a Peeping Moon report, Aryan Khan will be kicking off his debut as a writer. The star will be writing a Tinsel town comedy and has already started work on it. A source was quoted in the report saying, "Aryan is working on this Tinseltown satire on his own and will serve as the showrunner but might not necessarily direct it. It’s a funny, touching, and gripping story set in the Mumbai film industry, told through an up-and-coming young actor and his friends. Having been a star kid, Aryan is well aware of all the nitty-gritty of how the film industry functions and has written a script that takes a not-too-serious look at the ins-and-outs of film stardom.”

Speaking about the show, reports have it that even though it is inspired from real life experiences, it is a fictional story that will reflect the day-to-day lifestyle of actors and the emotional, artistic challenges that comes along with it. He is expected to finish the script in the next 2 to 3 months. If these reports are to be believed, the production is expected to kick off somewhere in the first quarter of 2023. Although he is currently only scripting the film, the other details are yet to be locked, including the streaming platform. Also, Aryan is expected to dedicate some more time assisting and understanding the process of filmmaking before he takes the director’s reigns.

Koffee With Karan season 7 has us hooked, despite the shift in timing, the Karan Johar-hosted chat show has continued to remain a much-loved show. After featuring a host of celebrities the latest episode of the show features cousins Sonam Kapoor and Arjun Kapoor. Intestinally, the two will be seen together for the first time, in the past, Sonam featured with Deepika Padukone on the show while Arjun has made several appearances. Talking about the new episode, the show sees both Sonam and Arjun revealing some interesting facts about each other. One such moment was Arjun Kapoor opening up about his physical transformation.

During the show, speaking about Arjun's physical transformation, Karan showed him some comments on social media and then a set of his photographs depicting the before and after the change, while saying, “I think it’s amazing that you did this firstly, it is fantastic. What was your thought, or was it just you putting yourself out there, having a feeling of abandonment?” Responding to the query Arjun replied, “It’s amazing that you can have reactions that are so varied in the way they are going about. Whether it is to do with my personal life, but it was more to do with the fact that I really, really care about my work, Karan. I really do. I am very passionate about cinema. I take my work very seriously. Somewhere down the line, when I made my debut, that is somehow, I came across that way to the audience. There was a physicality that I brought up. I was very unique in that sense. I made my debut as a grey-shaded actor. I did 2 States after that. Gunday. I presented myself in the best way possible and along with all my producers and the way I was showcased. I think I set a standard. And the audience accepted me and gave me love and respect and had an expectation and I think I let myself down. I let the audience down. I let my films down. That I wasn’t able to keep up those high standards that I had only set. And somewhere that started showing an attitude or a feeling to the outer audience, that I am lazy, I am laid back, I don’t care. And I think it was also the time of transition where social media became more relevant.”

While it certainly was interesting to see Arjun Kapoor’s dedication to becoming the best version of himself, the actor was recently seen in the film Ek Villain Returns. Going forward, Arjun will next be seen in The Lady Killer which features him alongside Bhumi Pednekar followed by Kuttey.

The popular chat show Koffee With Karan is back with its seventh season featuring none other than filmmaker Karan Johar as the host. From revealing conversations to rib-tickling banter between the guests the latest season has featured some big names. From Akshay Kumar – Samantha Ruth Prabhu to Sara Ali Khan – Janhvi Kapoor, and to Ranveer Singh – Alia Bhatt, and Ananya Panday – Vijay Deverakonda the show has already wowed the audience. Now the latest episode that features siblings Sonam Kapoor and Arjun Kapoor is set to break the internet again. In fact, going by the teasers of the episode, it seems like Sonam reveals quite a few of Arjun’s secrets. If that was not enough, the actress even spoke about her pregnancy, her fashion style, and her obsession to click photographs.

During the conversation, responding to Karan Johar’s question about what she thinks about the trend these days, of people are trying too hard on the red carpet, and whether fashion photos are getting a bit excessive Sonam revealed how it all started. “The reason Rhea (Kapoor) and I decided to take photos was because we realized when we went to the red carpet, there was so much business behind us. And we were borrowing, most of my clothes are borrowed. 90 percent of my clothes are borrowed. We were like we need to give credit where due. The pure reason is that if somebody is lending me something, I want to make sure the person gets nice photos, the designer gets nice photos and we credit them. But now I don’t know if they are borrowing it or buying it and putting it up.”

Further during the conversation, Karan went on to quiz Sonam about Cannes this year. When asked about what she thought of the Indian representation at the festival Sonam revealed she got a lot of messages because she didn’t go to Cannes this year because of her pregnancy. “I don’t know if I was missed or not. Like I have been trolled for my sartorial choices before in Cannes. So who am I to say that how you’re dressing or who’s dressing what? Maybe people think my taste is bad.”

Were it not for Samrat Prithviraj, former beauty queen Manushi Chillar would have made her debut with Aamir Khan in Laal Singh Chaddha. Whether that would have been a better prospect remains to be seen.

Sources say, Manushi was Aamir’s first choice to play his wife in Laal Singh Chaddha. But Manushi had already signed a contract with Yash Raj Films. At that point of time being launched in a big epic Yash Raj Film seemed like a dream start for any newcomer. Without much ado she declined the offer.

There were apparently quite a number of promising offers for Ms Chillar before Samrat Prithviraj released.

Now after the debacle of Samrat Prithviraj the offers have dwindled considerably. Her only new project is a film titled Tehran with John Abraham being directed by debutant Arun Gopalan.

One of the most liked divas in the Hindi entertainment industry is Anushka Sen. The diva began her career in the Hindi TV and digital entertainment industries a long time ago, and considering the level of support and love she has earned over the years, we firmly believe that she is deserving of all that has come her way.

After two consecutive disasters Bachchhan Paandey and Samrat Prithviraj, Akshay Kumar can breathe easy. Raksha Bandhan which opens on the auspicious occasion of Raksha Bandhan on August 11, is being seen as a “sure shot hit” by the film trade. Says director Aanand L Rai, “I don’t know how much it will be liked. But I do know that nobody can dislike it. Raksha Bandhan cannot fail to touch the hearts of every Indian. It is the most relatable film I’ve made.”

Anand feels Akshay Kumar was just the right choice to play the doting protective elder brother of four sisters. “He will remind you of Balraj Sahni in Do Raaste. Akshay is more a father-figure to his sisters in Raksha Bandhan than a brother.” Aanand’s film harks back to the classic blockbuster family film from 1969 directed by Raj Khosla in which the eldest son of the family played by Balraj Sahni lived and died for his siblings.

“At a time when we are rapidly losing our family values, Raksha Bandhan will remind us of those family films that told us how important it is to hold on to those ties that make our life meaningful,” says Aanand.

Kaun Banega Crorepati kicked off season 14 recently in a rather celebratory manner. Readers would be aware that the show is famous for its quizzes but it is also known for the kind of stories that people narrate to the host Amitabh Bachchan about his fandom and the things they have done for the superstar. Similarly, a recent contestant named Professor Dhulichand, who is making news for reaching upto Rs. 75 lakhs with his intelligence, spoke about one such instance which pushed him to boycott Amitabh Bachchan.

When Professor Dhulichand was invited to the hot seat, he shared an experience he had undergone during the release of Muqaddar ka Sikandar. He also added that the superstar owed him a debt of Rs. 10. Recalling the incident, Dhulichand said, “When I was studying in college, I used to survive each month with bare minimum amount. The financial situation back then was not good at home. Despite that, I took Rs.10 to watch your film on its first day. I planned to use it for the ticket, to pay the cycle stand, and to buy tea, snacks as well as return home.”

After waiting in the queue for hours, Dhulichand revealed that when his turn came, the mob situation worsened leading to a stampede and it was so bad that the police had to intervene. In fact, the professor also mentioned that he got lathi charged during the same. Amidst the chaos, Mr. Agarwal fell to the ground and sustained a head injury. It was then that he decided that he would never watch an Amitabh Bachchan movie.

Needless to say, the legendary actor was quite touched by the story. Not only did he return the debt of Rs. 10 as Rs. 20 with interest but also promised Dhulichand that he would watch the movie with him.

Kaun Banega Crorepati airs on Sony TV at 9pm.
