The month of May brought some relief to the exhibitors thanks to the Rajkummar Rao-starrer Srikanth. It was one of the few major releases of the month and did exceptionally well in cinemas. It also made its director Tushar Hiranandani someone to watch out for. It has now come to light that Tushar has already moved on to his next project. As per a source, he is reshooting certain portions of the Vikrant Massey-starrer The Sabarmati Report.

A source told Bollywood Hungama, “The film is not going for a massive reshoot. The producers felt that some scenes could come out strongly and also, they thought of roping in Tushar Hiranandani for the reshoot. The actors, too, readily came on board.”

In April 2024, Bollywood Hungama reported that the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) had expressed reservations that certain moments in the film could hurt the sentiments of a section of the moviegoers and hence, the makers had toyed with the idea of reshooting the film. The source, however, has no information on whether the film is being reshot for this reason or some other factor.

Back then, Bollywood Hungama was the first one to report that The Sabarmati Report wouldn’t be able to make it in cinemas on May 3. This was a time when the Lok Sabha Elections were going on and besides objections to some scenes, the CBFC also feared that it might violate the model code of conduct as laid down by the Election Commission of India.

Besides Vikrant Massey, The Sabarmati Report also stars Raashii Khanna and Ridhi Dogra. It is a political thriller about two reporters investigating the burning of the Sabarmati Express at Godhra on February 27, 2002. It is produced by Shobha Kapoor, Ektaa R Kapoor, Amul V Mohan and Anshul Mohan and directed by Ranjan Chandel.

Shweta Tiwari, fondly remembered for her portrayal of Prerna Sharma in Ektaa Kapoor's iconic drama Kasautii Zindagi Kay, recently shared a behind-the-scenes anecdote from the show. In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Shweta recounted a challenging experience while filming a scene for one of the show's early episodes. The scene required her character to fall into a river, with her co-star Cezanne Khan's character jumping in to rescue her. The narrative demanded that both actors remain in the water throughout the night.

Shweta Tiwari Recalls Shooting in Less Than Ideal Condition "It was really gross," Shweta revealed.

"We were shooting this in Film City Lake and stayed in the water all night," Shweta continued. "In the morning, we realised that kids had been sitting on the edge of the lake and pooping there. I was like, 'Oh s***, we were in this water the whole night!'" 

As if the sewage water wasn't enough, Shweta also encountered another unsettling surprise. "I also saw a snake crawling there," she added, "and realised it was in the water with us at night."

Actor Huma Qureshi has come on board to headline the upcoming investigative police procedural drama Bayaan, award-winning producer Shiladitya Bora announced on Friday. Developed at Film Independent, Los Angeles, Bayaan will be helmed by writer-director Bikas Mishra, best known for his acclaimed feature film Chauranga.

Also starring actors Chandrachur Singh and Sachin Khedekar, Bayaan is set to begin production in Rajasthan, this month. The film is jointly produced by Shiladitya Bora (Platoon One Films), Madhu Sharma (Summit Studios), Kunal Kumar, and Anshuman Singh.

The drama is set against the ravishing landscape of Rajasthan and follows the story of a father-daughter duo. "Roohi, a female detective, is sent to a small town in Rajasthan to probe the first case of her career as a lead investigator. She is, however, doomed to fail as her opponent’s influence runs deep within the system. Roohi must strive to live up to her father’s legacy, who is a legend in the world of law enforcement," the logline reads.

The film is supported by the International Film Festival Rotterdam’s Hubert Bals Fund and was developed at LA Residency, a part of the Global Media Makers (GMM) program of Film Independent, Los Angeles. During the course of the residency, Bikas was mentored by Craig Mazin (creator of HBO’s Chernobyl, The Last of Us, Hangover 2 and 3) and received advice on the script from writer Jeff Stockwell and story editor Ruth Atkinson.

"The sheer passion of the director-producer duo, Bikas and Shiladitya, moved me," actor Huma Qureshi said about signing Bayaan.

"Collaborating with such dedicated professionals, who care deeply about filmmaking, is truly exciting. It's a rare combination: a fantastic script, a talented crew, and their complete dedication to their work. Their energy is infectious. I'm excited about Bayaan!" said Qureshi, known for titles like Anurag Kashyap's Gangs of Wasseypur and the Netflix Original Monica O My Darling.

Bikas Mishra, known for his debut feature Chauranga, which won the Grand Jury Prize at the Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles in 2015 and was declared Best Indian Feature at the Mumbai Film Festival (MAMI) in 2014, said, "I feel humbled by the unconditional support Bayaan has received from Shiladitya and Huma. Having assembled the best cast and crew, there is no stopping now. We are going to make a film that will speak to the world, to tell a story we care a great deal about."

Producer Shiladitya Bora said a film like Bayaan perfectly aligned with the vision of his production house. "As a producer, I'm always looking for that one script that will be a breakout film for everyone involved. My job is to back the director's vision and empower him to create a film that will take us places. Huma's backing reaffirms my faith in the project."

Producer Shiladitya Bora has earlier backed projects such as Newton (India’s Official Entry to the 2018 Oscars), and Picasso (Prime Video India's first Marathi direct-to-digital acquisition). His banner, Platoon One Films, is a leading Indian independent film production house that was behind last year’s Berlin Panorama selection Ghaath.

Bayaan boasts a talented crew; three of them, the director, producer, and cinematographer, are alumni of the prestigious Berlinale Talents. Udit Khurana (Ghaath, Netflix’s Hunt for Veerappan) will shoot the film, while Vinay Vishwakarma (Disney-Hotstar's Candy) will serve as the production designer, and Shilpi Agarwal (Prasanna Vithanage’s Paradise, Netflix’s Indian Predator: Murder in a Courtroom) will serve as the costume designer.

This news was followed by an official announcement from Bhansali himself, confirming a Christmas 2025 release date. According to a report in Pinkvilla, a source close to the project said that Bhansali has partnered with Jio Studios to bring his vision of the film to life. The film is described as one of Bhansali's most ambitious projects to date, and the pre-production process is already well underway.

In an interview with India Today, Junaid said that his father, Aamir Khan, mother, Reena Dutta, and sister, Ira Khan, are "very supportive and very encouraging even in their criticism."

Junaid Khan about family support

He said, "We don’t really talk about films so much. But I know that Ira (my sister) unconditionally supports me. I'm blessed because I come from a very supportive family. Also, they don't shy away from saying it like it is. Even Papa (Aamir) will say, 'Look, I feel this, but you should do what you want.' The same is with mom. So, yeah, I think everybody is very supportive and very encouraging even in their criticism.”

Junaid on Aamir’s unique acting style

Junaid also responded to a question about his height gap with Aamir and how his acting technique differs from his father's. He continued, “I guess that is a compliment (laughs). No, I don't know how to answer that in the sense that it's not necessarily a conscious thing. I guess as performers, we're all different. He's a fantastic actor. A lot of times, between two of his own films, you would not be able to tell it's the same person. So, yes, we are very different as performers.”

About Maharaj

Junaid played Karsandas Mulji, a social reformer, in the film Maharaj. Maharaj digs into the 1862 Maharaj Libel Case, one of India's most famous judicial battles, and focuses on the life of Karsanda. The film, directed by Sidharth P Malhotra and produced by Yash Raj Films (YRF) Entertainment, also stars Jaideep Ahlawat, Shalini Pandey, and Sharvari. Maharaj is currently available on Netflix.

Junaid on his film Maharaj

Recently speaking with news agency ANI, Junaid opened up about how he was inspired by the story of Karsandas Mulji. "He was a real person who in 1862 was talking about those things which even today are happening. It happens in society today. And it happens in every society. And at that time, he was fighting about it. When we didn't have that much knowledge. So, I found the character and the story very inspirational. That there is a man who had so much understanding back then," he had said.

Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha is Ajay and Tabu's eleventh film together, and fans are anxious to see them as lovers. Director Neeraj Panday admits that he was unaware of their off-screen friendship, but he thought they were the ideal cast for the picture. “Two years back, when we were figuring out our next theatrical release, the germ of this film came to me. It was there in some form in my head before that but I didn’t actually sit down and write about it till two years ago. And Ajay and Tabu were my first choices. Having said that, I don’t know if it’s their friendship that translated onscreen because I know nothing about its background,” the filmmaker said.

Auron Mein Kaha Dum Tha is an epic love story that follows Krishna and Vasudha as their young relationship confronts numerous challenges, eventually leading to their separation when Krishna commits multiple murders and is condemned to life in jail. Krishna gets released from prison after 22 years, and the story revolves around his final rendezvous with Vasudha.

When asked about the success of Kalki 2898 AD, producer Sangeeta Ahir of Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha stated, "It is good for us that the audience is back in theatres and happy days are back."

In a recent episode of Bigg Boss OTT 3, tensions within the house reached a boiling point when Armaan Malik and Vishal Pandey engaged in a heated verbal exchange. Armaan called Vishal "machchar" (mosquito), hinting at his annoyance with him. The feud escalated when Armaan mocked Vishal’s viral ‘Kachcha Badaam’ video and accused him of hiding his phone, a claim Vishal dismissed as a joke. The relationship between the two soured further as their disagreements intensified.

Payal Malik’s reaction to the incident

Reacting to the incident, Payal Malik, Armaan’s wife, spoke in an exclusive interview with Moneycontrol.com, supporting her husband. "Armaan kabhi dil se kuch nahi kehte. Unhone aise he majaak mein kaha hoga. Sare gharvale jealous hai humse," she reiterated, emphasizing that Armaan’s comments should not be taken to heart as he often speaks in jest. Payal’s statement highlights her belief that the other housemates might be envious of their relationship.

Further escalation over food quality

The situation further escalated when Armaan and Vishal clashed over the quality of food. Armaan complained about the half-cooked rotis made by Vishal, leading to another argument. Vishal’s blunt response, suggesting Armaan cook the rotis himself if he didn’t like them, only added fuel to the fire. The argument carried over to the next day, underscoring the ongoing tension between the two contestants and their struggle to coexist peacefully.

Audience reaction to Armaan Malik's family dynamics

The inclusion of Armaan Malik and his two wives in Bigg Boss OTT 3 has divided viewers. Some appreciate the bold move to showcase a polygamous relationship, while others criticize it as a mere gimmick to boost ratings. This decision by the show’s producers has sparked widespread debate about the portrayal of unconventional family structures on national television, with Payal and Kritika's presence adding a unique dynamic to the show.

The aftermath of Payal Malik's eviction

Payal Malik’s eviction from the show has left Armaan and Kritika Malik to continue competing. Her departure has been a topic of discussion among fans, many of whom consider it unfair. Despite her eviction, Payal remains supportive of her family and continues to defend Armaan’s actions and behavior in the house. The ongoing drama and evolving dynamics within the house keep viewers engaged as Bigg Boss OTT 3 progresses.

Juhi Chawla and Shah Rukh Khan, longtime friends and co-stars, have shared a remarkable journey in Bollywood. Recently, Juhi offered a glimpse into Shah Rukh Khan's early days in Mumbai, starkly contrasting his superstardom today.

When Shah Rukh Khan Couldn’t Pay EMI  Speaking at an event, held by the Gujarat Chamber of Commerce & Industry in the state, Juhi revealed that Shah Rukh Khan, upon arriving in Mumbai, didn't have a permanent residence. He would travel from his hometown Delhi and seamlessly integrate with the film crew, often working double or triple shifts. Juhi mentioned his dedication during their projects together, including Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman, Dil Aashna Hai, and Deewana with Divya Bharti.

Juhi shared, “I remember Shah Rukh those days didn't have a home in Mumbai. So he used to come from Delhi (his hometown). I don't know where he stayed. He used to have tea with the unit (the film crew), eat with the unit, and blended in the unit seamlessly. He also did 2-3 shifts then.”

She further recalled, “He had a black Gypsy. But it was taken away one day because he couldn't pay the EMI, or there was something. He came on our set very dejected. I told him, ‘Don’t worry, you'll have many more cars one day.' And he still remembers that. Because it's true. Look at him today.” Shah Rukh Khan’s humble beginning Led to Stardom  Today, Shah Rukh Khan owns a fleet of luxury vehicles and resides in the iconic sea-facing bungalow, Mannat, in Bandra, Mumbai. Interestingly, Mannat even makes an appearance in the background of the song ‘Chaand Taare’ from their 1997 film Yes Boss.

Speaking of the professional front, while Shah Rukh Khan gears up for his upcoming film King, Juhi Chawla's last screen appearance was in The Railway Men.

Kartik Aaryan celebrated India's 2024 T20 World Cup victory, but he is upset that Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have retired from T20 international cricket. In an interview with India Today, he described it as a major loss for Indian cricket. On June 29, India defeated South Africa by seven runs at the Kensington Oval, winning their second T20 World Cup since 2007.

Speaking on Team India's stunning success last night, Kartik told India Today, “I’m really happy and excited that India won the World Cup yesterday. It’s like a dream for all of us to witness this. The way Virat Kohli played in the finals and how Rohit Sharma said that he was saving it for the finals, even Suryakumar’s catch was unreal. This match was a perfect nail-biter and something which a lot of us won’t forget. Jasprit Bumrah in the end, Hardik Pandya, everyone – it was a team effort last night.”

He also talked about Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli’s retiring and said, “We won the World Cup, but sadly, we are losing two diamonds. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are retiring. It definitely breaks my heart and fans’ too.”

Kartik Aaryan also took to social media to congratulate Team India. He marked the team the one that refused to surrender.

India stunned everyone by winning their second ICC T20 World Cup championship with a seven-run victory over South Africa at the Kensington Oval in Barbados on Saturday. After winning the T20 World Cup, Team India members were ecstatic. Rohit Sharma collapsed to the ground, while Rahul Dravid jumped out of his chair with joy. Finally, they're world champs! Hardik Pandya was moved to tears. Following the match, Bollywood flocked to social media to congratulate the squad.

India's previous T20 World Cup victory came under the leadership of MS Dhoni in 2007, making this recent triumph a long-awaited achievement. As the nation celebrated, the absence of Kohli and Sharma in future T20I matches cast a shadow over the festivities.

Legendary filmmaker Shankar is known for creating larger-than-life characters who fight for justice against societal evils. Films like Anniyan, Sivaji: The Boss, Mudhalvan, Gentleman and Hindustani are prime examples. His upcoming film Hindustani 2 continues this tradition.

In recent years, the concept of cinematic universes has become increasingly popular, with Lokesh Kanagaraj's Lokesh Cinematic Universe (LCU) featuring Kaithi, Vikram and Leo being a recent example. But Shankar reveals he had a similar vision way back in 2008, even before the trend emerged! Shankar's Opens Up About His Dream Project In an exclusive interview with News18 Showsha, Shankar shared a fascinating anecdote. "While filming Robot in 2008," he said, "I had this idea of creating a story that brings together Senapathy (played by Kamal Haasan) from Indian, one-day chief minister Shivaji Rao Gaekwad (played by Anil Kapoor) from Nayak and Sivaji (Rajinikanth) in one film." An Idea Ahead of Its Time Shankar's enthusiasm for this multi-starrer concept wasn't met with the response he expected. "I was so excited by the idea," he recalled. "I called my assistant directors and told them about it. But they just stared at me, unsure of how to react."

He further elaborated, "They probably thought I was crazy! The idea of bringing three iconic characters together in one film seemed outlandish at the time. Even senior technicians didn't quite know how to respond. They smiled politely but didn't seem to take it seriously." The Avengers Ignited a Familiar Spark Years later, upon watching The Avengers, Shankar was reminded of his own cinematic universe concept. "I confided in many people about this idea," he said, "but since no one responded positively, I shelved it. Then came The Avengers, and it reignited that spark within me." Shankar's Hindustani 2 Set for Release While the multi-star project remains on hold, Shankar's directorial venture Hindustani 2 is gearing up for release. The film, a sequel to the Hindi blockbuster Indian, is slated for a global theatrical release on July 12 in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu. The film stars Siddharth, Kajal Aggarwal Kitchlu and Rakul Preet Singh alongside the original protagonist, played by Kamal Haasan.

Veteran actor Govind Namdev has shared his experience of working with Bollywood superstars Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan. In an interview with Bollywood Bubble, Govind Namdev recalled his time with Shah Rukh Khan on the sets of Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani (2000).

Shah Rukh Khan will smoke like a chimney and keep working According to Govind Namdev, Shah Rukh Khan's work ethic was unparalleled, as he would work tirelessly, often for just four hours of sleep, and constantly think about his next project. “I had heard a lot about workaholics, jinhe sirf kaam ki dhun hoti hai. I had heard about them, but I saw it the first time when I worked with Shah Rukh Khan,” Govind Namdev said.

He further recalled, “We worked throughout the day, then at night he mingled with the whole crew, we ate together and then, because he was also the producer, he worked till 2 AM. The next day, he had to take an early morning flight to Chennai to attend a function, then come back and resume shooting! He would’ve slept for not more than three and a half or four hours maximum. Kaam mein dhuni hai woh. He will smoke like a chimney and keep working, keep thinking about what to do next. Superstars usually have this attitude, these tantrums, but not him.” Govind Namdev recalls shooting Wanted with Salman Khan Govind Namdev also shared his experience of working with Salman Khan on the sets of Wanted (2009). Unlike Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan didn't interact much with the crew and focused solely on his work. Govind Namdev noted that Salman Khan would occasionally share stories about his childhood and his father, Salim Khan, but otherwise kept to himself.

In his words, “He doesn’t interact much, sirf kaam se kaam. There was no personal talk at all. Just sometimes how unke father kaise hote the, kuch bhi tedha kiya toh padti thi humko‘ (Salman would share how if the kids did anything naughty, they would get a beating by their father Salim). That’s it. He is the opposite of Shah Rukh Khan as far as interacting with others is concerned.”

Speaking of the professional front, the veteran actor was last seen in Vicky Kaushal’s Sam Bahadur. Meanwhile, Salman Khan is currently shooting for Sikandar and Shah Rukh is vacationing in London with friends and family.

While Armaan Malik is receiving extensive flak and hatred outside the house from several netizens and celebrities who condemned his act of marrying two women, the YouTuber-Influencer remains unaffected by this.

Promo of Payal Malik narrating Armaan and Kritika’s marriage

Payal Malik was recently seen having a conversation with her co-contestants in a recently released promo of the reality show. The influencer opened up about how Armaan and Kritika informed her about their marriage. She said, "Ek din main bahar thi aur ye dono the kahin saath mein inhone baat kari hogi aapas mein ke shaadi karte hain toh usne bhi keh diya karte hain. Ye dono shaadi karke aagaye. Mere paas phone aaya Arre Payal ek na khushkhabri deni hai, Main inki harr ek cheez samajh jaati hoon. Maine kaha tumne Shaadi kar li (One day I was out and the two of them were together somewhere and they decided among themselves that they should get married, and she agreed as well. And then, these got married. I got his call saying, ‘Payal I wanna give you a good news’ I understand his each and every habit. I immediately asked him if he got married)?”

Payal breaks down

While everyone was listening to the story intently, tarot card reader and co-contestant Munisha Khatwani chimmed in and asked, "Tumko nahi laga inhone bahut bada dhokha diya hai. Aap ki friend, Aap ki best friend hoke, aap ke husband ke saath shaadi kiya? (Didn't you feel that they betrayed you? Your friend, your best friend, got married to your husband?)” This question left Payal quite upset and the latter ended up breaking down. While Armaan rushed to console her saying, “Abhi toh Khush hona tum, abhi saat saal ho gaye. Kabhi kabhi toh mujhe aisa lagta hai ki inn dono (Payal and Krithika) ki shaadi hui hai (Now you are happy right? It has been seven years. Sometimes, I feel like it is those two who have gotten married)”.

Apart from Armaan, even Ranvir Shorey and the rest of the contestants came to console Payal. The latter confessed that she often gets emotional while narrating this incident. Ranvir applauded Payal’s courage and said, “Aapka dil bahut bada hai (you have a big heart)”. Many of the other contestants too tried to calm her and appreciated her strength.

Karan Johar, who is known for his quirky jibes and witty one-liners did not receive a great feedback when it came to his show Koffee With Karan Season 8 which released in 2023. The filmmaker-host’s show is known for its fun conversations where actors spill the beans on their personal and professional lives, making some intriguing revelations. However, the year of 2024 will not mark the return of the show, asserted KJo, who also promised that he is definitely looking at releasing Season 9 next year.

In an interview with Sucharita, Karan Johar discussed what went wrong with Season 8 of Koffee With Karan and revealed how a fun and peppy round like the Rapid Fire had become so boring that he didn’t want to give out the prize (coffee hamper) to anyone. “In the history of Koffee with Karan, it was the most boring rapid fire. It was so boring that I was like snooze alert. I’m like why am I even doing this? You’re not giving me questions. Should we just drop the rapid fire? Main hi hamper ghar le jaata hoon because no one really deserves to win it,” said Karan.

He further stated about Season 9 being on the cards and shared, “Let’s change the world of Koffee with Karan. Let season 9 be all the fun, all the chattiness and all the candour but let’s do it in a way that is not putting the celebrities in an awkward, touchy space. People are scared to open up, they don’t say anything the way they used to. You can’t ask them which is an overrated film or an overrated performance. Nobody is going to give it to you.”

“So I took 2024 off. It’s going to be back 2025. Somewhere around the second half of 2025, we want to come back with a new syntax,” he concluded.
