I think from the very beginning I got respect.” Explaining her take further, the 27-year-old actress added, “Maybe what Janhvi could have meant, maybe as an actor one still has to prove themselves. But even then, whether it’s Kedarnath or Atrangi [Re], I read the reviews I was given. I don’t think respect has been a problem for me.” Meanwhile, on the professional front, Sara is currently busy with promoting her next release Gaslight, whereas Janhvi will be next seen in Mr & Mrs Mahi.

People made Mughal-e-Azam in colour for today’s time but we were doing the complete opposite. But, I believe films are made with your heart. And, this film is exactly that.” Talking about the film earlier, Anubhav Sinha had said, “Bheed is a story of the most perilous times which changed everything for humanity. The key objective of shooting the film in black and white was to showcase how the visuals of the social disparity during India’s Lockdown were strikingly similar to what people went through during the 1947 India partition. This story is about people whose lives changed in a snap and the colours from their lives were lost when the border was drawn within the country.” Speaking of the cast of Bheed, it includes some of the most talented actors in the industry, such as Rajkummar Rao, Bhumi Pednekar, Dia Mirza, Ashutosh Rana, Pankaj Kapur, and Kritika Kamra, among others. The film is slated to release on March 24 this year. Also Read: Dia Mirza talks about her film Bheed; says, “I hope Bheed expands our worldview”

Every picture tells a story. In fact, in the case of veteran actress Zeenat Aman, this is quite applicable. Ever since she has made her debut on Instagram, with each post on her feed, she has given her followers a peek into her life. Making an addition to the same, the glamorous diva of Indian cinema took a trip down the memory lane and recalled the mahurat day of Krishna Shah’s film Shalimar. She revealed that during one of the shoot days, British actor Rex Harrison advised her to get married immediately because she was beautiful. In the throwback photo, Aman is looking gorgeous in a silver gown. Speaking of its details, an excerpt of her post read, “My glorious silver gown was created by renowned costume designer Mani Rabadi based on a design of my own making. Its plunging neckline and sleek silhouette certainly turned some heads. In fact, Mani literally sewed me into the gown to give it that exquisite fit.” Meanwhile, the Roti Kapda Aur Makaan actress further continued, “We had several international actors in attendance that day, including Gina Lollobrigida. She later backed out of the production, amongst swirling rumours that we had locked horns. British actor Rex Harrison wasn’t at the event, but he was in the film. One day on set, he told me - “A beautiful girl like you should get married immediately”. I had a good laugh over that. And for the record, I think that’s a terrible reason to get married.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by Zeenat Aman (@thezeenataman) Concluding her write-up, the 71-year-old actress stated that though Shalimar didn’t quite dazzle the audience, it was a “thrilling adventure all the same.” Like always, the post received love from the netizens. “Shalimar was thrilling film with international fair and good songs, it deserved more love at the box office,” wrote movie buff, while another commented, “Our teenaged hearts raced like crazy when we first saw this photo.” Also Read: Zeenat Aman shares her experience walking Lakme Fashion Week ramp; says, “There was a butterfly or two fluttering in my stomach”

Kangana Ranaut is a name that needs no introduction in the Indian film industry. She has made a mark for herself with her impeccable acting skills, bold choices of roles, and expressing of her opinions. Apart from acting, Ranaut has also tried her hand at direction and production. However, did you know that she wants to own a restaurant as well? In one of her recent Instagram stories, the actress opened up about her dream of owning a restaurant while revealing that she wanted to open a restaurant last year but she couldn’t because of “financial setbacks”. For the unversed, the Queen actress shared a clip of one of her old interviews with film trade analyst Komal Nahta. The host asked Kangana about her wish list other than films. Meanwhile, captioning the same, she wrote, “Another interview from more than a decade ago, yes cooking is very much on my agenda ... had some financial setbacks last year otherwise I was all set to launch my restaurant in the valley, will be coming soon though.” The Tanu Weds Manu actress further added, “Thanks to my fans for these clips I had forgotten about these interactions, but look when we build intentions we set destiny GPS (global positioning system), so cultivate intentions, not desires.” On the same note, it is worth mentioning here that Ranaut’s last project Dhaakad, which was released in 2022, performed poorly at the box office. On the other hand, Kangana had earlier shared that she has mortgaged her house to finance her first upcoming directorial, Emergency. Coming to the professional front, the 35-year-old actress will be next seen headlining Emergency and a Tamil-language film, Chandramukhi 2. Nearly a month after wrapping up Emergency, Kangana also concluded the shoot of Chandramukhi 2. Emergency was slated to release on October 20 this year. However, when the makers of Ganapath announced that they would be releasing their Tiger Shroff starrer on October 20, Kangana postponed her film and stated that she will unveil the new release date of Emergency “only one month in advance with a trailer.” Also Read: Kangana Ranaut pens emotional note before concluding Chandramukhi 2 shooting; lauds co-star Raghava Lawrence “master”

Pahlaj Nihalani started the year 2023 by celebrating his 73rd birthday, on January 10. In February, he held an inauguration event for his revamped South Mumbai theatre, Nishat Cinema. Bollywood Hungama exclusively spoke to him a few days ago about what he’s up to nowadays and a lot more. How do you look at the box office at present? If I go back to 1993 or 1994, it was a time when a big film, of the scale of Pathaan, will be released in maximum of 150 cinemas across the country. Yet, the big films at that point did the same kind of business that Pathaan or any other big film does in today’s times, despite the increase in prints and ticket rates in today's times. Those were the days when films would boast of 7 crore footfalls. I don’t think Pathaan will even cross 5 crore footfalls. Its run is about to get exhausted. Also, the ticket prices of Rs. 800 or 1000 can discourage some people to not venture out to cinema halls. 3 Idiots (2009) became a blockbuster with 4 crore footfalls. The cost of tickets has doubled since then but the box office hasn’t seen the same growth. Akshay Kumar used to give consistent hits but his films barely got footfalls of more than 1.25 crores. A film needs 1.50 or 1.75 crore footfalls to be declared a blockbuster. And our country's population is 140 crores. That’s why satellite channels are giving so much money to buy TV rights as they help the film reach out to every household. It’s also amusing that though many of the star-studded films are disasters, OTT platforms are claiming that millions of people have watched them on their platform. I don’t know where they are getting these numbers. Jo film 10 minute bhi dekhne ko mann nahin karta, aisi filmon ko most watched film of the year ka title diya jaata hai (smiles)! I wonder if they are fooling the people or if are they fooling themselves. You were the chairperson of the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). What do you have to say about its functioning, under Prasoon Joshi? Recently, you had spoken against reports that the orange swimsuit shot in the song ‘Besharam Rang’ from Pathaan might have been removed by the CBFC… A lot of controversies were made over the orange swimsuit. But the Censors have not cut those shots. And I had said before the release that you cannot remove a shot based on the colour. The issue died down after the release of the film. It was completely political. A chairperson’s tenure in CBFC is usually 3 years. There have been murmurs as to why Prasoon Joshi continues to be the chairperson since August 2017... He’s the chairperson till further orders. He’s there as a chairperson but he’s also not there! What do you mean? When we get the appointment letter, it states that the tenure will start from a certain date and end on a certain date or until further orders. Since there have been no further orders, he continues to be the chairperson. However, he’s not attending office. I doubt if he has visited the office in the last 2-3 years. Gaye honge office toh sirf 2-4 baar. It was said that you used to attend office everyday… Mere paas kaam nahin tha na! Inke paas bahut kaam hai (laughs). Do you feel sad that people remember you only for your stint as the CBFC chairperson and the controversies that erupted at that time and not your body of work? I feel that jo accha kaam karta hai, uski agar burai na ho, toh fir accha kaam hua hi nahin! Nowadays, you don’t hear anything critical about CBFC. That’s because of fear. Abhi sab cheez ka darr hai sabko. No one gives any reaction or quote to the media. I used to do that as I felt it was important to clarify. People didn’t like it. In my time, many wanted to become chairperson. They were eying my chair. Even right now, bahut log mehnat kar rahe hai. Par nahin ban paa rahe hai. I put together a system in place at CBFC. The new members are following it. They haven’t made any changes though times now are different. We have OTT platforms now. They are not under any rules. This needs to be addressed.

Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan recently wrapped the schedule of his next project, Fighter, which is India’s first aerial action film. It marks his reunion with Bang Bang and War director Siddharth Anand and it sees him star opposite Deepika Padukone for the first time. The actor says it is a huge-scale project and sees it as a good opportunity. Speaking about Hrithik Roshan’s role to India Today, Siddharth Anand said, “With Hrithik, this is my third film — Bang Bang and War had really different characters. Rajveer and Kabir are two different people and personalities, completely opposite. And Patty, the character he’s playing in Fighter, he’s made it his own. He’s like a chameleon, he just adapts and becomes that character for that one year (when he’s shooting the film). So he can bring a certain genuineness to it that can last over a franchise, it’s not just made up for that moment, he becomes that person. So Patty is really something Hrithik has really worked hard on, different from Kabir and Rajveer. It is really exciting to see him transform like that. It is like a dream for a director to have an actor who just submits himself to that film for so long. He is a joy.” Talking about Deepika Padukone’s role, he added, “Like I said, my female parts are really strong, and very exciting. Deepika is also playing an Air Force officer (in Fighter). She’s a part of the elite unit of the Air Force, and it’s based on a lot of reality and authenticity. Something that Deepika has also bitten into. It is something that she’s not played before. And honestly, it’s a lot like her in real life, the character that she’s playing. She’s so much fun on set and she’s translating that character to be a real good takkar to Hrithik’s character, so it is very exciting. It’s fun!” Meanwhile, Siddharth Anand recently collaborated with Deepika Padukone for Pathaan. On the other hand, Hrithik Roshan was last seen in the Hindi remake of Vikram Vedha with Saif Ali Khan. Deepika Padukone has an array of line up including a film with Prabhas and Nag Ashwin, The Intern remake, Singham Again and more.

The Oscar-winning director of film Elizabeth, Shekhar Kapur, believes that SS Rajamouli demonstrated that we don't necessarily need to wait for external reinforcement in the form of accolades. Shekhar Kapur shares his views on winning Oscars this year. He told Hindustan Times, “I was waiting for this! After Elizabeth, which was nominated in seven categories at the Oscars, I was waiting for other filmmakers to take it up, and thank God for that. It’s been years. And you shouldn’t discount the fact that All That Breathes from India didn’t win- a nomination is as good as a win. It’s a beautiful film. So two heartfelt documentaries from India, and a feature film like RRR that has kind of taken the West by storm. It won Best Original song. It was a hardcore Indian, melodramatic celebration of what we do best.” He also emphasises how important it was for the Oscars to accommodate public demand. “It cannot just remain art cinema, then it will fall by the wayside. Rajamouli won in other awards, over directors like Steven Spielberg. Internationally they have opened their arms,” Kapur stated. When asked if we (Indians) wait for international validation before recognising our own talent back home or whether awards like the Oscars wake us up to the fact that we have such great content being made, to which he replied, “I think we do, and we shouldn’t. I remember, when Elizabeth was nominated for so many Oscars, everybody said ‘wow look at this director’ I said ‘wait a minute, I am the same guy who made Bandit Queen, Masoom, Mr India. Why am I suddenly this amazing director because the West has come up and said he is amazing?’ I have constantly said this, that we don’t need validation. It’s great to get an Oscar, suddenly the world knows about you, you get opportunities to work internationally. But I don’t think we need validation, and nobody has proven it better than Rajamouli. He has proved it so well through such an Indian way of making movies and made it so celebratory that the whole of West is saying ‘look at this’.” Expressing his grief over the demise of late actor-director Satish Kaushik, Kapur stated, “My relationship with Satish Kaushik... because he was from National School of Drama, and because he was an amazing actor, he understood acting. People used to say ‘Oh My God, if Shekhar Kapur is on a honeymoon, Satish will go with him’! That’s how people saw us. He used to live in my house for some time, we lived together. His greatest asset was his deep understanding of people, and you could see that in his performances. It came from staying at NSD, where Ebrahim Alkazi was the teacher that time. He trained them to look at the world and understand. Nobody knows that Satish was a brilliant mathematician as well. His death us such a loss, we have lost somebody who was yet to explore his potential, there was so much more.” Also Read: Shekhar Kapur shares a throwback picture featuring Anil Kapoor, Boney Kapoor and Sridevi among others

Amidst promoting the same, the actor-comedian recalled the time when he was in depression and started missing out shoots, cancelling them, and how his work had suffered when he was undergoing a bad phase.

In an interaction with Aaj Tak, Kapil Sharma recalled the times when he used to cancel shoots and the actor was asked if this behavior left any of the star angry. Responding to it, Kapil added, “Nobody got angry. The format of my show is such that I cannot be late even if I tried. We have to shoot multiple segments throughout the day… But yes, there were times when I backed out at the last moment because I didn’t think I could go through with it… “ Continuing further about the SRK incident, Kapil said, “When Shah Rukh Khan’s shoot got cancelled, he met me three or four days later. He had come to the same studio for something. Maybe, as an artist, he understood what was happening. He is a superstar, after all, and he has seen everything in this industry. He called me to his car, we sat for an hour, and talked. He asked me, ‘Drugs leta hai?‘. I told him I don’t take drugs, but I no longer feel like working. He told me some very nice things, counselled me. But this is one of those situations that you can’t improve unless you yourself want to.” Kapil Sharma, who continues to host the popular show The Kapil Sharma Show on Sony TV, was last seen in the film Firangi in 2017.

Being the foremost destination for all things entertainment, Bollywood Hungama is kicking off the celebration of 25 years with the maiden edition of Bollywood Hungama Style Icons 2023. Bollywood Hungama has maintained a standard of reportage in terms of celebrities, films, music, lifestyle, television and international content. And now, the first edition of the award show will honour notable names from the entertainment industry who continue to leave an impact in the fashion and lifestyle industries. With only a few weeks left for the award show, the nominations for Most Stylish Social Warrior are out and the five top names that have received nods includes Alia Bhatt, Bhumi Pednekar, Sonu Sood, Priyanka Chopra and Dia Mirza. ALIA BHATT Without a question, Alia Bhatt is a formidable force in the film business. Bhatt has always had a keen eye for style and how to make an impression with her looks. The starlet is known for her ability to start talks with her outfits, whether she is promoting her movies or getting ready for the red carpet. As we further examine her look books, we find that she has an enviously large collection of intriguing styles, including high-low hemlines, wrap-around midis, and dresses with cut-outs and mixed-patterns. Though she resists wearing jewellery, Bhatt likes to pair her clothes with colourful kitten heels and white sneakers. She adores wearing sarees, flowy gowns, and co-ord sets. BHUMI PEDNEKAR Dum Laga Ke Haisha, a film that made Bhumi Pednekar famous for reasons other than her acting prowess, launched her into the spotlight for the first time in 2015. Later, when she appeared in other films, it became evident that Pednekar had a talent to be reckoned with and that she also had a few sartorial tricks up her sleeve. Her wardrobe consists primarily of items we may readily find in our own wardrobes, such as skirts, blouses, jeans, tops, dresses, and ethnic wear, reflecting a more informal and practical sense of style. DIA MIRZA In 2001, Dia Mirza made her acting debut in the beloved romance drama Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein, which launched her to stardom. She frequently used her celebrity status to inspire change as her career progressed. She is an active advocate for social and environmental problems both online and offline. Mirza has a sophisticated and serious sense of style. Wearing clothing from brands and designers with an eye for the environment, who support fair trade, ethical production, and animal rights are necessary. Mirza gives handloom a platform for a bigger, global audience while making it an active decision. She has always practised what she preached, from donning chic handloom saris to a striking ikat lehenga to maxi gowns made of eco-friendly materials. PRIYANKA CHOPRA One of Bollywood's most distinctively stylish stars is Priyanka Chopra. The performer has given us some of the most memorable outfits throughout the course of her nearly two-decade career, sending the fashion world into a frenzy each time. The actor's personal closet showcases her sartorial journey and is filled with versatile clothing, from flowery dresses for relaxed days to powerful professional attire including blazers, blazer suits, and button-up shirts. Don't forget about glam outfits like slip dresses and even sarees that might be appropriate for somewhat dressier occasions like dating and night outs. The star never misses an opportunity to make a statement with her attire. SONU SOOD One may assume that Sonu Sood, a part-time actor and a full-time philanthropist, wouldn't have time for anything else given his two extremely busy activities. But, it appears that the actor has discovered a third interest, which is becoming a fashion influencer. He often sports a strong, angular look. He like wearing jackets or t-shirts with jeans.

In addition to portraying a delivery man, Kapil also portrays a father in the film, and he claims that having a child in real life helped him relate to his character's feelings more. Kapil told ETimes, “Today I am a father of two kids, but tomorrow I might get a chance to play a man who is like 40 years older than me and I will play that as well. However, having said that, since I am a father, a sentiment comes from within.” He added, “It happens that being a father in real life helps you connect more to the emotion.” During the interview with the celebrity, Kapil Sharma put himself in Shahana Goswami's position. When questioned about Shahana's persona, Kapil (playing Shahana) responded, “I am playing the role of Pratima in the movie. As you know I was born and raised in Delhi, and this is my second movie with Nandita, I earlier worked with her in Firaaq, and we have a great relationship. And I work only with those people with whom my heart connects, I don’t work just for the sake of it.” In the same breath, he further added, “Kapil is such an amazing actor.” “It was such an honour and pleasure to work with Kapil Sharma,” said Kapil.

Following its world premiere at the 2022 Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), Zwigato also had its screening at Busan International Film Festival 2022.

The industry woke up to the sad news that Satish Kaushik passed away suddenly. The actor-director had earned a place in the hearts of the viewers' thanks to his memorable roles in several films. He was also a director and handled memorable and successful films like Hum Aapke Dil Mein Rehte Hain (1999), Hamara Dil Aapke Paas Hai (2000), Mujhe Kucch Kehna Hai (2001), Tere Naam (2003) etc. He began his journey as a director with Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja (1993). A lot was expected from this Anil Kapoor-Sridevi starrer as it marked the reunion of the duo and producer Boney Kapoor after the very successful and acclaimed Mr India (1987). Sadly, the film bombed big time at the box office. In a few interactions, Satish Kaushik spoke about it in his trademark funny style. Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja was shot lavishly and boasted of a challenging action scene on a trip that took 21 days to be shot. In an interview with Mumbai Mirror seven years ago, Satish Kaushik revealed that nine premieres of the film were planned in nine cities. The third premiere was held in Hyderabad and Satish said that this is when news came in that the film was not doing well. He was in a hotel and he was so distraught by this news that he wanted to jump from the window. Satish Kaushik stated, “I got very upset and I wanted to jump out of the window of the hotel. I was newly married at that time and my wife got very worried. But of course, nothing much would have happened anyway if I had jumped — for, the window was on the first floor. And right below the window, there was a buffet laid out for dinner. Had I jumped I would have landed in some bhindi ki subzi!” In this same interview, he also noted that “the sheer ambition of the film took a toll”. Meanwhile, Satish Kaushik’s next directorial Prem (1995), which served as the debut of Sanjay Kapoor, also tanked. In another interview, given to Bombay Times in 2018, Satish Kaushik joked, “During the 80s, when Boney first signed me as an actor, he offered me Rs 201. Anil Kapoor told him that he’d seen how talented I was during Woh Saat Din (1983), so he told him to give me Rs 500 instead. Boney would’ve never thought that the actor he signed for Rs 500 would make him lose Rs 50 crores on films like Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja and Prem (laughs!).” Also Read: Satish Kaushik had planned to make a sequel to Salman Khan-starrer Tere Naam; once revealed, “Barber shops, even in Pakistan and Afghanistan, have posters advertising the Tere Naam cut”
