The 25th anniversary screening of Sarfarosh (1999) was held by Radio Nasha on May 10 at a multiplex in Mumbai and was attended by the team of the film in full force. Before the screening, Aamir Khan, Sonali Bendre, Naseeruddin Shah, Mukesh Rishi and director John Matthew Matthan came on stage and talked about interesting trivia of the film with RJ Divya Solgama.

Aamir Khan was asked what made him sign a film like this, which was a bit different from his other choices in the 90s. Aamir explained, “I was moved by the story. Also, it had an unusual plot. Usually, in mainstream cinema, we don’t get to see such films. It talks about some important issues but it does that sensitively. Hence, I was more than excited. I was sitting in a relaxed manner when I heard the narration.”

Aamir then revealed that he had doubts about whether John Matthew Matthan would be able to pull off the film, “John is an English name and he wanted to make a Hindi film. Also, he was an ad filmmaker who makes 30-second films. And he was attempting a three-hour movie. Hindi aati hai ki nahin yeh sab mujhe doubt tha! But within 15 minutes of the narration, my pose changed. I became very alert and fell in love with the material. I told John, ‘Script badi acchi hai. Tune aaj tak film direct nahin ki hai. Tu direct kar paayega ki nahin woh dekh lete hai’. And John did a wonderful job.”

Was doing Sarfarosh a risk for the superstar? Aamir answered, “All my films have been risky. I liked Dangal’s (2016) script and many wondered how I would pull off the role of an old man with a paunch. They said ‘Your audience wants to see you as a handsome man’. Even with Taare Zameen Par (2007), some people had doubts. It’s not that I was not nervous. With every film, I get nervous. But I was not nervous enough not to do the film. I was nervous but I was excited. Also, we had a great team of actors. It was a great opportunity to work with Naseer, Sonali, Mukesh ji and everyone.”

Naseeruddin Shah, who played the villain, raised laughs as he said, “Even today, I get messages on Facebook that ‘Tum asli Gulfam Hasan ho’!” Aamir laughed and remarked, “Aapka kaam itna accha tha ki log confuse ho jaate hai.”

Naseeruddin then remarked, “Sabse zyada khushi ki baat yeh hai ki Pakistan mein Sarfarosh bahut pasand ki jaati hai.” He turned towards Aamir and asked him, “Were you aware?” Aamir replied in the negative.

Naseeruddin Shah continued, “People in Pakistan love the film a lot. Though I haven’t been there in a long time. But earlier, whenever I visited the country, Sarfaorsh was always mentioned. I was shocked. Mujhe laga tha joote maarenge mujhe (laughs)!”

When asked how he came on board, he stated, “John narrated the story to me. Those were the days when mobile phones had just come in the market. John had a cell phone and it would keep ringing every 2 minutes! Yet, I was very gripped. I knew that it’d be an important film and an intelligent thriller. I also liked the revelation of my character. And I knew that the film would succeed. I was also sure that I’d have fun singing in Jagjit Singh’s voice (smiles).”

Deepak Tijori’s thriller Tipppsy was released yesterday in cinemas. The director heaved a sigh of relief to know that the film made it on time. The last few days were harrowing for him thanks to the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). Bollywood Hungama exclusively spoke to him on this aspect. He started by saying, “I was blackmailed. I was tortured. If it can happen to me, I don’t know how many people must be going through it.”

When asked to explain in detail, he began to narrate his ordeal, “The cut-off date to apply for the certificate is 30 days. But I had applied 23 days before my film’s release that too because of my agent. He made a mistake. Nevertheless, I do agree that I was late. 20 days before the release of the film, I sent a message to the RO (Regional Officer). I informed him that the publicity campaign had begun and requested that our screening happen on time. The RO promptly replied, assuring me that somebody from the CBFC office would connect with me and that the screening would be arranged”.

He continued, “I didn’t get any call. I kept waiting. I tried to get the information from my agent but to no avail.”

Deepak Tijori then said, “4 days before the release, on Monday, I called the RO and begged him. He said, ‘We’ll do the screening tomorrow’, that is, Tuesday. But my delivery to the distributor was scheduled for Wednesday. I asked him, ‘Why can’t you watch the film today, sir?’. He told me, ‘No, Deepak ji, we can’t see today. We have other work to do’. When I said that my delivery might not happen on time, he replied, ‘That’s not our problem’.”

He further said, “Later, I got a call, confirming the screening for Tuesday morning. I reach the office early morning. There was a committee of 4 people – 2 men and 2 women. I consciously ensured that my film was for the whole family. I ensured that there was no profanity, kissing scene and sex scene in the movie. The actresses do wear bikinis but it’s something very common. Also, I didn’t ask for a ‘U’ certificate. I asked for a U/A certificate.”

Deepak Tijori stated, “After the screening, I was invited, not to discuss. Instead, they blackmailed me – either you accept our cuts or you go for an ‘A’ certificate. I asked, ‘Can I have a say?’. He replied, ‘No, you cannot discuss with us. We four of us have already discussed it. Are you trying to tell us that we are not competent enough?’. I replied, ‘I am not. But please listen to my point of view at least’.”

When asked about the cuts, he replied, “There’s a dialogue of a doctor telling the girls ‘Tum kahan kahan munh maarti ho?’. This dialogue was even there in the trailer and it was passed with a clean U/A rating. But they asked me to remove it from the film. They also asked me to remove the words ‘blue film’ and ‘porn’. I don’t understand why such words should be removed’.”

Talking about the other cuts, he said, “They also had issues with the rave party song where the characters are consuming chillum. It’s a substance associated with Bholenath. So, in the background of the song, the music director had added the words ‘Bhole Shiv Shankar’. And this song ‘Kheecho Re’ is already out. The CBFC members asked me to reduce the song by 50% and that I should remove every shot of them smoking up and the words associated with Lord Shiva. I reasoned that my song would get distorted.”

There were more cuts asked, “They also pointed out two cleavage shots which they felt was too much. I was asked to blur it.” One of these cleavage shots is of Natasha Suri and is from a scene where the other actresses are also sitting by the pool wearing cleavage-bearing bikini tops. But only Natasha’s cleavage was asked to be censored.

Deepak Tijori continued, “One of the members told me that the word ‘penis’ is there in the subtitles. Now, I have checked the subtitles twice. I told him that such a word is not present in the subtitles. The man arrogantly maintained that the said word was there in the subtitles. He also said that he’ll mention about it in the report. I assured them that I’d remove it from the subtitles and I again asked if I could talk about the other modifications asked. But they refused.”

The problems didn’t end here. Deepak Tijori revealed, “I wanted the CC (censor certificate) for my delivery. On Tuesday, the screening was over at 12:30 pm. I requested the CBFC officials to give the cut statement immediately. I also assured that I’ll submit the modified version the same day in the evening. This is because, for certain cinema halls, you need to submit hard disks as well; not everybody gets the film through satellite. They assured me that I’ll get the list in my mail.”

Puzzled about the male genitalia reference in the subtitles, Deepak Tijori reached his office to see where this word was mentioned. He said, “You won’t believe it. The word was ‘pennies’, meaning loose change. And he read it as ‘penis’! These are the kind of people who are checking our films and sitting in committees.”

Before leaving the CBFC office, Deepak Tijori met the RO. He exulted, “I met the RO. He assured me that he’ll give me the certificate on Wednesday morning. I was happy to know that. But I didn’t get the cut list. I made nearly 10 phone calls the same day. I said, ‘Give me a handwritten reply in case you don’t have someone to type’. They cut the call citing ’10 minute baad call karo’ and ‘5 minute baad call karo’. Since it’s a government office, it shuts at 6:30 pm.”

He added, “The next day, I called the office at 10 am. I was told that the officials are yet to arrive. At 10:20 am, the RO finally came on the phone and he said he’ll send the statement in the afternoon. I said, ‘If I get the list in the afternoon, it’ll be evening by the time I get the certificate’. He told me, ‘I’ll try sending you early’. In 15 minutes, he sent me the cuts. This means that the list was ready a day before. They don’t understand the urgency of a filmmaker. My crores of rupees are at stake and I want to address those who are assigning the committees – why can’t these members be courteous and kind? Statement toh de do yaar.”

Deepak Tijori continued, “I uploaded the revisions on the CBFC portal by 3-4 pm without arguing about any cuts. “Aditya Lakhia, who says ‘Tum kahan kahan munh maarti ho?’ was out of town. I requested him to re-dub the dialogue with the same intensity. The dialogue was changed to ‘Kahan kahan ghoomti rehti ho’.” I of course mentioned that ‘pennies’ is not derogatory. Meanwhile, my distributors had already informed me that I was late in giving the delivery. I was waiting for the certificate and though I was told that I’ll get it by mail, I sent my man to collect it from the CBFC office.”

The issues continued for the filmmaker, “At 5:55 pm, when I didn’t get the certificate by mail, I dialled the RO. The RO said that my man has to be in the office in 5 minutes, that is, by 6:00 pm or else the certificate will be given to me the next day, that is, Thursday. I was shocked. They could have simply mailed it to me. Thankfully, my man reached at 5:57 pm. I once again called the RO to hand over the certificate. My man waited and meanwhile, at 6:15 pm, I got the certificate on mail! My man was not given the certificate. Anyway, I attached the certificate to my final cut and did the final mastering for the DCP. It took 8-10 hours and my work got done on Thursday early morning. As a result, my delivery got late and in certain centres, my morning shows did not happen”

Deepak Tijori sighed, “Imagine this is the plight given to the filmmakers by the new CBFC committee. How disrespectful and heartless they are that they can’t understand the agony of the filmmakers. Firstly, they don’t give us enough time before release. Secondly, they blackmail us so that we can’t even object to it. I also want to make a plea that why can’t there be a Censor Board office in Andheri, which is the hub of the industry? Why are we going all the way to Peddar Road?”

He also complained about the casual suggestions made by the CBFC members, “Do they even know the repercussions of an adults-only certificate on a film? We then can’t sell the satellite rights. We even face issues in our OTT deals. Inko mazaak lagta hai kya?”

Deepak Tijori signed off by saying that the earlier CBFC chairperson Pahlaj Nihalani was much better, “There was not a problem at all (when I went to certify my film Do Lafzon Ki Kahani). There was a kiss in it. They told me ‘Thoda sa yeh scene kam kar dijiye’. I willingly did it.”

Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone, glowing with her baby bump, was recently spotted returning from a babymoon with husband Ranveer Singh. This is the first public appearance of the couple since Ranveer archived his older Instagram posts, including their wedding pictures, sparking rumours of trouble in paradise. However, there’s no such thing.

A video shared by a paparazzo captured Deepika and Ranveer, the couple exiting their car. Deepika sported an oversized t-shirt, likely to hide her baby bump. While the footage seems to be shot from inside another car, initially Deepika doesn't acknowledge the camera. But as she walks away, she playfully swats at the camera, leaving it unclear if it was a friendly gesture or a reaction to being filmed.

Meanwhile, sources close to the couple have assured that all is well between Deepika and Ranveer. They're simply cherishing their time together as they prepare to welcome their first child. Ranveer Singh was also seen at the Tiffany & Co store launch event on Wednesday.

It's important to note that Ranveer archived, not deleted, his pre-2023 posts. This means the wedding pictures still exist on his account, just not visible on his main feed. Additionally, his recent pictures with Deepika are still very much there.

On the work front, Deepika Padukone will next star in Singham Again, helmed by Rohit Shetty. It stars Ajay Devgn, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Tiger Shroff and Arjun Kapoor with cameos of Akshay Kumar and Ranveer Singh. She also has Kalki 2898 AD, co-starring Amitabh Bachchan, Kamal Haasan and Prabhas. Meanwhile, Ranveer Singh has Don 3 with Farhan Akhtar, Shaktimaan franchise and Singham Again.

On Tuesday, actor Varun Dhawan was spotted visiting a clinic in Mumbai wherein he was followed inside by the paparazzi making him loose his cool. A video was shared on Instagram by a paparazzi account capturing the incident.

The account also shared a video in which we can see him exiting his car while being ringed by his security, following which he makes his way into the clinic. Before entering, he can be seen looking at the cameramen nettled as they called his name. In the video we can see him asking the paparazzi “Tereko andar aana hai?” to which the paparazzi can be heard responding with a “Nai Nai”.

Previously various similar experiences have been encountered by celebrities like Taapsee Pannu, Anushka Sharma, Shahid Kapoor and many more. A very recent similar incident also occurred when Jr NTR got annoyed by the paparazzi while shooting for War 2 with Hrithik Roshan. A video of him went viral asking the paparazzi to ‘leave it’ and stop him from filming after being followed inside.

Dhawan has currently many projects lined up, including the Indian edition of Citadel titled Citadel: Honey bunny alongside Samantha Ruth Prabhu by Raj & DK and Shashank Khaitan’s Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari alongside Jhanvi Kapoor.

The dry period in Bollywood might temporarily halt with the release of this week’s Srikanth, starring Rajkummar Rao, Jyotika, Alaya F and Sharad Kelkar. The movie-watching season will begin in full force with Mr And Mrs Mahi, which will arrive in cinemas on May 31. Bollywood Hungama reported last week that the trailer is on its way. Now, we bring to you another interesting development about this film, starring Rajkummar Rao and Janhvi Kapoor.

A source told us, “The makers of the film have recreated the much-loved song ‘Say Shava Shava’ from Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (2001) for this film. The recreation is not done for the whole song. Rather, they have only chosen to recreate the stanza that begins with the line ‘Dekho Tainu Pehli Pehli Baar Ve’. It’s played during an important scene between the lead actors, Rajkummar and Janhvi.” Interestingly, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham was directed by Karan Johar, who is also the producer of Mr And Mrs Mahi along with Zee Studios.

The source continued, “The song is played in the background and it now remains to be seen if it makes it to the final cut. There are times when songs, relegated to the background, might get changed. But ‘Dekha Tainu’ fits the narrative and let’s see what call is taken by the makers in this regard.

The original version of ‘Say Shava Shava’ is a popular dance number featuring Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Rani Mukerji, Kajol and Jaya Bachchan. It was composed by the late Aadesh Shrivastava.

Mr And Mrs Mahi is directed by Sharan Sharma, whose debut directorial was Gunjan Saxena – The Kargil Girl (2020). Bollywood Hungama was the first one to break the news, in November 2021, that Sharan’s next film has been titled Mr And Mrs Mahi. In January 2022, the makers dropped pictures of Janhvi prepping with Dinesh Karthik for the role of a cricketer.

Some days back, Janhvi Kapoor grabbed eyeballs as she was seen at an IPL match wearing a jersey that mentioned ‘Mahi’, as part of the promotions of the film.

Just a day ago, Kangana Ranaut was heavily trolled for her speech wherein she asserted that she gets the maximum respect in the industry, after Amitabh Bachchan. This video clip of her making ‘high claims’ about her stardom in Bollywood resulted in netizens slamming the actress and many of them even remarked about the actress giving out 15 consecutive flops. Reacting to it, Kangana took to her social media to share a note where she quizzed the users, ‘if not her, then whom?’

Readers would be aware that Kangana is currently busy with her electoral campaign as the actress has joined politics as the BJP candidate from the Mandi constituency, which belongs to her hometown Himachal Pradesh. In a video from her campaign speech which found its way online, Kangana was seen saying, “Sara desh hairaan hai, ki wo Kangana, chahe Rajasthan chali jau, chahe mai West Bengal chali jau, chahe mai Delhi chali jau, chahe mai Manipur chali jau, aisa lagta hai ki mano itna pyaar aur itna sammaan… Mein daave se keh sakti hu ke Amitabh Bachchan ji ke baad aaj kisiko industry me milta hai to wo mujhe milta hai (The entire nation is surprised that, Kangana, no matter whether I go to Rajasthan or West Bengal or Delhi, or Manipur, I feel like I received so much love and respect, that I can assure you all, that after Amitabh Bachchan, if there is someone in the industry who gets so much respect, then it is me).”

Her speech sparked an outrage on social media where many took to the platform to slam the actress for making this statement. “Peak level of self-obsession,” claimed one of the users whereas another one added, “After giving flops over flops, Kangana Ranaut compare herself with Amitabh Bachchan. This is the biggest insult to Amitabh Bachchan..”. Followed by this reaction she received, Kangana decided to hit back  by sharing another post, but this time on her Instagram story.

In the post she wrote, “I clearly mentioned Bharat and its various states where I get overwhelming love and reception as an artist for my art as well as my integrity as a nationalist, not just my acting but my work for woman empowerment is widely appreciated. I have a question for those who have an objection, if not me after Big B, who gets most amount of love and respect from hindi films in Bharat? Khans? Kapoors? Who??? Can I also know please, I would correct myself”.

For the unversed, Kangana Ranaut recently featured in Tejas which bombed heavily at the box office.

This marked Bhatt's second appearance at the highly anticipated fashion event, making her one of the select few Indian celebrities to grace the prestigious gala. This year, Bhatt took the opportunity to showcase the exquisite artistry of Indian fashion, stepping out in a breathtaking creation by renowned designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee.

She recognized the saree as the perfect embodiment of tradition and innovation, and in the skilled hands of Sabyasachi, this vision blossomed into a masterpiece.

Drawing inspiration from the timeless elegance of Indian nobility, the saree showcased intricate craftsmanship. Delicate hand embroidery, precious stones, and elegant beadwork were meticulously incorporated, with a touch of the roaring twenties evident in the fringed detailing. The colour palette paid homage to nature's beauty, reflecting the hues of the earth, sky, and sea. Bhatt's hair and makeup evoked a sense of delicate nostalgia.

The highly anticipated Don 3 is gearing up for production, with Ranveer Singh stepping into the iconic role of the charismatic criminal mastermind.  This news, announced last year by director Farhan Akhtar, got the fans and industry talking, sparking both excitement and debate. While details surrounding the film have remained tightly under wraps, recent reports have shed some light on the production schedule and filming locations.

According to Dainik Bhaskar, the shoot is expected to commence later this year, aiming for a swift four-month turnaround. Interestingly, the report suggests a significant international focus, with Farhan Akhtar currently scouting locations in London and Germany. “A few days ago, Farhan Akhtar reached London with the core team to finalize shooting locations for Don 3,” the report stated. “Apart from London, the production team will also be heading to Germany. It's possible that filming might extend to other German cities as well.”

Adding to the intrigue, sources close to the production revealed a potential filming window between "after August this year and wrapping it up by December." While official confirmation from Farhan Akhtar and the team is awaited, these reports have certainly piqued the interest of fans.

The decision to cast Ranveer Singh as the successor to Shah Rukh Khan's portrayal of Don has been a source of much discussion. To announce the new direction for the franchise, Farhan released a captivating teaser featuring Ranveer's voice delivering a powerful dialogue, “Sher jo so raha hain woh jagega kab, puchte hai yeh sab. Unse keh do phir jaag utha hoon main, aur phir samne jald aane ko... (Everyone asks when the sleeping lion will wake up. Tell them I have awakened, and I'll be back soon).” This announcement divided social media, with some fans eager to see Ranveer take on the role, while others expressed a sense of nostalgia for Shah Rukh Khan's iconic performance in the past two films.

In an interview with BBC Asian Network, Farhan Akhtar had said last year, “I'm just really looking forward to get it going. I mean Ranveer is amazing. He's great for the part. He's also, as you can imagine, really excited and really nervous. You know about the thing that you're filling some big shoes. But we went through the same emotional process when Shah Rukh Khan did it and everyone was like, ‘Oh my God, how can you replace Mr. Bachchan?’ That whole thing happened then. And it really is about an actor coming in and owning the part and making it, really like giving it their style and their flair and he has that. He has that in spades. So he's gonna do that. Yeah. So he's gonna do a great job. I think the responsibility is more of mine now to make sure that the script of the film works out the way I imagined."

He added, “The filming for Don (3) starts in 2025. We start in January of 2025. So there’s some time away.” When asked what makes a good Don, he said, “Self-confidence, flamboyance and the belief and the ability to do anything that your mind is set on.”

Produced by Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar under their banner Excel Entertainment, Don 3 is slated for a 2025 release. The leading lady opposite Ranveer Singh will be the talented Kiara Advani. ALSO READ: Ranveer Singh – Farhan Akhtar’s Don 3 to go on floors in 2025; not delayed

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan's Bandra residence became the scene of a shocking incident on April 14 when two unidentified assailants opened fire outside his home. The Mumbai Police have made significant progress in the case, but a recent development has cast a shadow on the investigation. One of the accused, Anuj Thapan (32), who allegedly supplied the weapons used in the attack, died by suicide while in police custody on April 26. Thapan, along with another accused, Sonu Subhash Chander (37), were arrested in Punjab a week after the incident. The circumstances surrounding Thapan's suicide are under investigation.

As per a report in NDTV, Thapan, arrested in Punjab days earlier, took his own life in a lock-up toilet despite being guarded by police officers. Authorities are investigating the circumstances surrounding his death, with former police officer PK Jain highlighting the mandatory procedure of treating such incidents as murder cases and questioning all officers present.

Former Maharashtra senior police officer PK Jain highlighted that all deaths in police custody are treated as murder cases, and a thorough investigation will be conducted by the CID (Criminal Investigation Department). Jain further emphasized that lock-ups should be routinely checked for any objects that could be used for self-harm.

According to a report in PTI, all four accused – Thapan, Chander, the two shooters Vicky Gupta (24) and Sagar Pal (21) – are believed to be linked to jailed gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. The National Investigation Agency (NIA) identifies Bishnoi's gang as being involved in serious crimes including kidnapping, murder, extortion, and smuggling of weapons and drugs.

The Mumbai Crime Branch claims to have gathered strong evidence against Lawrence Bishnoi and his brother Anmol Bishnoi, who they have named as the prime suspects in the case. Anmol Bishnoi is reported to have claimed responsibility for the attack, citing a long-standing feud between the Bishnoi gang and Salman Khan stemming from a blackbuck poaching case in 1998.

Following the attack, authorities significantly bolstered Salman Khan's security detail, elevating it to the Y-plus category, one of the highest levels of protection offered in India. Additionally, Khan was granted permission to carry a firearm and reportedly acquired an armoured vehicle for his safety.

The arrest of the shooters, Vicky Gupta and Sagar Pal, happened shortly after the incident. CCTV footage captured them fleeing the scene on a motorcycle. Further investigation led the police to recover two pistols, magazines, and bullets believed to be the weapons used in the attack from Gujarat's Tapi River. Both Gupta and Pal were initially remanded in police custody until April 29 to allow for further investigation into the motive behind the attack.

The much-awaited Hollywood film, The Fall Guy, is all set to release this Friday, May 3, in North America, India and many other territories. A lot of expectations are riding on the film due to its casting, high budget and also the strong buzz in the trade. As per reports, it is expected to open at $30 million in North America, and there’s a possibility that it might cross the $40 million mark. In India, the buzz is limited but it'll have a wide release and might take advantage of the lack of exciting releases in cinemas. Bollywood Hungama has learned that the action entertainer, starring Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt, has an interesting surprise for moviegoers.

It turns out that the popular Hollywood actor Jason Momoa features in the film in a hilarious special appearance. It is said that he appears in a crucial sequence and his unexpected cameo will be loved by the moviegoers. The other interesting aspect is that the film starts with Ryan Gosling and director David Leitch talking to the audience about the importance of the stunt team and also asking them to keep their phones on silent. The video clip is quirky and sets the mood for the film. The end credits show the behind-the-scenes footage with a focus on the stunt doubles of the actors in the film.

Jason Momoa became worldwide popular with his performance in the cult TV show 'Game Of Thrones'. He then played the lead in Aquaman and it gave his career a boost. Last year, he was seen in an entertaining role as the antagonist in Fast X (2023). His dashing looks, long hair, acting talent and entertaining persona off-screen have made him popular among fans across the globe.

The Fall Guy is the story of a stuntman who falls for a camera operator. More than a year later, they meet in tense circumstances and this time, the stunt guy gets into deep trouble after the disappearance of the lead actor.
