Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan have been close friends for over two decades, but their relationship hit a rough patch a few years ago. However, the two have since reconciled and have been seen together at several events and parties. The Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre opening was no exception, as Salman and Shah Rukh's friendship once again took centre stage. A video is making rounds on the internet, in which Salman can be seen posing with SRK’s family, including his wife Gauri Khan and kids Aryan and Suhana Khan for paps. For the unversed, Nita Ambani's vision of preserving and promoting Indian arts has materialised in the form of a cultural centre situated in the Jio World Centre at Bandra-Kurla Complex. Today, the musical "Civilization to Nation: The Journey of Our Nation" directed by Feroz Abbas Khan will be staged at the centre. Coming back to the video, though Shah Rukh is not seen in the camera, his family seemed thrilled to be posing with Salman.

Kriti Sanon is pleased with the direction her career has taken, even if she still has about a year before she celebrates a decade in Bollywood. The actress has given several hits in her career including Bareilly Ki Barfi, Panipat, Mimi, and Bhediya. There were times, according to the actress as she reflects on her path, when she thought she deserved more. ETimes quoted Kriti saying, “There used to be times where I used to get restless, but I would feel like I deserved more than what I am getting. I wished I had some more opportunities. I wished I had certain filmmakers, who would give me that chance. I felt like I had a lot more to offer than what I was able to.” Despite her desire for more, Kriti believed that her steady development helped her to remain grounded. She said, “If I would have progressed really fast, then I don’t know if I would have been the way I am today. So, I am glad that it has all happened slowly and steadily and I didn’t really feel a jhatka, like a sudden change… like the world around me changed all of a sudden.” She further added, “I am glad that it all changed slowly and beautifully. I have evolved through these years and sort of found my own craft. I think I am a lot more humble and grateful today and have my head on my shoulders because of that. So, all this is there because it happened slowly and steadily for me.” Kriti was recently seen in Rohit Dhawan’s Shehzada opposite Kartik Aaryan. She will be soon seen in Adipurush with Prabhas and the action film Ganapath opposite Tiger Shroff that is slated to release on October 20, 2023.

read moreIla Arun, Shweta Kawatra, Ishitta Arun & Shilpa Mehta speak about postpartum depression
Coto, a global social community and a #WomenForWomen platform, recently conducted a webinar on postpartum depression to bring to the fore the pressure women undergo post-pregnancy. With an ensemble panel of experts, the discussion put the spotlight on the emotional and mental state of our super moms after giving birth. One of the highlights of the session was when Ila Arun, who is known for her mesmerizing voice, spoke about her play ‘Baby’s Blues’. Directed by Ila herself, it takes us on both realistic and surrealistic portrayals of postpartum depression. While postpartum depression is rarely talked about, it affects approximately 1 in 9 women after pregnancy. During the session on the coto platform, Ila Arun and popular actors Shweta Kawatra, Shilpa Mehta, and Anjula Bedi raised some crucial questions about postpartum depression and offered their personal experiences to help manage the condition with grace. During the webinar, Shweta Kawatra talked about her own struggle with postpartum depression and how she overcame it. Ila Arun’s daughter, Ishitta Arun, who runs a community on coto called ‘Why So Serious?’ emphasized how the right direction and support from our family always helps. The session brought light to the fact that 22% women in India suffer from postpartum depression whereas 60% of working women are more susceptible to going through the same. Sharing her thoughts on postpartum depression Ila Arun said, “As dark as our play is, there is a human angle and humor too in Baby Blues. This play is an eye-opener for everyone. The topic is of utter importance that we are talking about the same on this forum today. I like what coto stands for and how it has provided a platform for women to talk about anything freely be it their achievements, shortcomings, wishes, etc. There used to be a saying ‘Women are women’s worst enemies.’ This saying is taking a backseat in today’s time.” She further added, “It is not just the wife who goes through the depression, it is the husband also who goes through the changes with her.” Shweta Kawatra said, “When I saw Baby’s Blues, I was able to see myself from the outside. All the emotions of confusion, suffocation, that the main character and her husband in the play go through are relatable. The play showcases a New York based nuclear family. We are also a nuclear family. It's very difficult to find help and trust someone. I wanted to kill myself. I felt stripped off who I was. I had been a working woman all my life and now I could not see hope. At the same time, I wanted to take care of my baby. It took me at least one year to realize that I could be suffering from postpartum depression. There was never any talk about that topic in my time.” Shilpa Mehta said, “Even though I am unmarried, I relate to, and understand postpartum depression, just like a woman, who even though doesn't have her own child, but understands motherhood when she adopts a baby. Postpartum depression is such a deep thing that happens to everyone. For some women, it's very heightened and for others, it's very normal and natural because families are there for your support. In the western world, it becomes a little difficult since the concept of nuclear families is more prevalent.” Ishitta Arun said, “When you become a mother, there are different degrees of suffering. There are various degrees and kinds of classifications within depression and postpartum depression. I never got diagnosed, but clinically I had all the symptoms of postpartum depression. I am a Buddhist practitioner, and I didn’t have time for therapy. I had the tools at my beck and call that I could access. Which was a very strong life philosophy that steered me in the right direction. Every mom has a journey and it’s difficult to articulate what is transpiring in one’s mind.” Anjula Bedi said, “I felt the same things as were shown in the play. You feel like you are tied down. In my time, nobody knew about it. One of the things about postpartum is you are handed something without knowing anything about it. Every woman goes through this change of life which is mental as well as hormonal.” Actor Mia Maelzer who is also a part of the play Baby Blues said, “I have grown as a woman through this play. I am more of a friend to my mother today than I was before the play. It has also helped me understand myself and my own anxiety when I played a mother on screen. Motherhood is very important.”

read moreSaurabh Shukla confesses he “felt a jolt” after Shamshera flopped
Saurabh Shukla has made a significant impact on Indian cinema with his brilliant acting skills over three decades. Be it a funny cop in Barfi or a powerful politician in Raid, he has proven his versatility in a wide range of roles. For a section of the audience, Saurabh Shukla is a synonym for a good and successful film. However, it was not the case with the Ranbir Kapoor starrer Shamshera, which was released last year. Speaking on the same note, Shukla recently recalled feeling a jolt after Shamshera performed poorly while opening up on making “some tough choices” in his career. It all happened during his interaction with Indian Express. When asked about his favourite aspect of his current career phase, Saurabh responded that he finds the “realism” portrayed in contemporary films to be the most enjoyable. He asserted, “I don’t even feel that I have spent such a long time here that I can make a difference. There have always been people who work well and those who don’t.” The veteran actor explained, “Even today if you look at it in totality, when it comes to choices of stories and how one chooses to act, then we are moving more towards naturalism or realism. It is a good time for actors because now in one film you have all the shades to play — you can be funny, humorous, quirky, sad, dramatic — and I personally like this trend very much.” Adding further, the Satya actor stated that there was a point in his career when a few of the movies he worked on were not released. He mentioned that he “felt a jolt" when his recent major film, Shamshera failed to perform well at the box office. He said, “There are so many films that I have done which are not known to people but while doing the film I had great fun. And later when I watched the film, I was very happy with myself that I chose that film. But then there was something in the film that didn’t work and the film did not reach people. It is part of the game at the end of it.” Before concluding the conversation, the 60-year-old actor spoke about the tough choices he has had to make as an actor, and how people often praise him for his work. He shared this story during a flight journey, where he met several people who recognized him and complimented his work. However, it was the fan who acknowledged his difficult choices and appreciated them, which left a lasting impression on Shukla.

read moreAnubhav Sinha weighs in on Theatre vs OTT debate; says audience “need to explore newer kinds of films”
In recent years, there has been a growing debate about the merits of watching films in theatres versus on over-the-top (OTT) platforms. While some argue that watching a movie in a theatre provides a unique and immersive experience, others contend that OTT platforms offer more convenience and flexibility. Speaking on the same note recently, filmmaker Anubhav Sinha shared his thoughts and stated that watching films on OTT is like “having coffee and not smelling it.” It all happened during his interaction with Mid-Day. Sinha believes that while seeking audience approval, it is disappointing when good films like Faraaz go unnoticed. It is worth mentioning here that Faraaz, helmed by Hansal Mehta, was jointly produced by Anubhav’s production banner Benaras Media Works and T-series. He suggested that watching a film on OTT is not the same as experiencing it in a theatre, which provides a more immersive experience. In his words, the critically-acclaimed director asserted, “While one seeks approval from the audience, one also wants the audience to identify a good film and back it. One is disappointed when they don’t go and watch a film like Faraaz, which was about youngsters and got great reviews. They need to explore newer kinds of films. It has become a convenient discussion that some films are made for OTT, and some for theatre. Watching a film on OTT is like having coffee, and not smelling it. In theatres, you can [fully experience] a movie.” Coming to the professional front, the 57-year-old director is currently making headlines for his latest release Bheed. The social drama, shot completely in black and white format, features Rajkummar Rao, Bhumi Pednekar, Kritika Kamra, Dia Mirza, Pankaj Kapur, and Ashutosh Rana. It was released on March 24, 2023.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali's filmmaking style is characterised by grandeur, attention to detail, and strong character development and Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram Leela is a shining example of his style, with its vibrant colours, beautiful cinematography, and memorable characters. Speaking on the same note, actor Sharad Kelkar recently recalled his first day of working on the Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh starrer. Kelkar, who had prior experience working predominantly on television shows, admitted to being taken aback by what he initially viewed as an unnecessary extravagance on the sets. Nevertheless, he subsequently understood and appreciated the significance of opulence in realising Bhansali's artistic vision. During his appearance on Cyrus Broacha's podcast, Sharad discussed the challenges he faced while working in the film and television industry. He asserted, “One of my initial films was Ram-Leela. The set was at Film City, and on my first day there, there was a crowd of 1000 people in the studio, plus the crew, plus the main actors. We had more than a day of rehearsals.” The Tanhaji actor further added, “Mere dil pe lag raha tha kitne paise waste ho rahe hain, kitne paise waste karenge yeh log, itne mein toh main 13-15 minute shoot kar leta (I thought they were wasting so much money, I could have shot 15 minutes of footage). It was a shocker for me because I came from TV.” When questioned about his belief that the production was wasting time, Sharad clarified that he didn't actually think that. He explained, “Once I had done the film, and seen it at the screening, I came out and hugged Sanjay sir. I told him, ‘Now I know the meaning of big film’. Because I was used to getting work done quickly. With films, you need to take time. I’ll give it to Sanjay sir, because he’s one of the few filmmakers who gives time to every aspect of filmmaking.” Also Read: Ranveer Singh reveals he could not stop kissing Deepika Padukone on the sets of Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram Leela

Manoj Bajpayee is one of the immensely talent actor we have in industry. Unlike many celebrities, Manoj maintains a low profile and only discusses his work when necessary. He recently spoke about his short temper and revealed how keeps it under control. The actor recently discussed his short temper during a News18 summit. He said, “Yes, I have a short temper. The kind of background I had grown up in, I was the eldest son. As the eldest son with 5-6 siblings, it makes you just like a father. Irrespective of the fact whether the eldest son is 12 years old, he has to bear the burden of responsibilities. Whether he is made to realise those responsibilities or not, he can observe and has the maturity to attain that self-realization. So anger used to be my very strong emotion. A lot of it has decreased from the last few years.” The actor also discussed how playing villains early in his career was entirely accidental. “When I went to Mumbai, I hadn’t gone there to become a villain. I wanted a good and respectable role in the project in which I can showcase my work. I had previously done theatre for 10 years in Delhi. And when you come to Mumbai and you start knocking the doorsteps of the producers and directors, nobody asks you about what you have done or for how long you’ve done theatre.” Coming to the professional front, Manoj was last seen Gulmohar. He will next be seen in the third season of his Amazon Prime Video show The Family Man which is helmed by Raj & DK. He also has Despatch and Joram in his pipeline.

read morePriyadarshan says, “I’d never attempt to recreate the Hera Pheri magic again”
Akshay Kumar says the entire credit for the success of Hera Pheri, which was released on March 31, 2000, must go to the director Priyadarshan. And he is right. After Priyadarshan and the film’s producer Firoz Nadiadwala had a fall-out, Nadiadwala made the sequel Phir Hera Pheri where he deputed the direction to the Hera Pheri writer Neeraj Vora. The second Hera Pheri film wasn’t as funny as the first one. Now there is the third Hera Pheri film coming up, and Priyadarshan is super-sceptical. “A classic, like lightning, strikes only once in the same space. You cannot hope for miracles to happen twice in the same place. The glory of Hera Pheri will remain forever. I am glad I was instrumental in that glory. I would never dare to try and repeat it.” He feels encoring the success of Hera Pheri is implausible if not impossible. “Even if the charm of the original is applied again, even if the cast is brought back together, the end-result cannot be the same. Of course, I am not discounting the possibility of a miracle.” The super-prolific Priyan, now putting finishing touches to his latest film Corona Papers, recalls the camaraderie during the making of Hera Pheri. “Akshay, Suniel, Tabu, Paresh, Neeraj Vora and I… we were like one family throughout the shooting. That sort of closeness doesn’t exist anymore,” said the veteran filmmaker.

read moreMurder Mystery 2 movie review: Underwhelming flick but works due to the fun moments and performances
MURDER MYSTERY 2 is about the adventures of a detective couple. After the events of the first film, Nick Spitz (Adam Sandler) and Audrey Spitz (Jennifer Aniston) start their detective agency. Sadly, their new business doesn’t go as planned. One day, Maharajah Vikram Shivan Govindan (Adeel Akhtar) calls and informs them that he’s going to get married. He invites the Spitzes to his high-profile Indian wedding on a private island. Nick and Audrey realize that they need this break and accept the invitation. On the island, they are given a royal welcome. At the sangeet function before the marriage, things go unexpectedly. The Maharajah was supposed to make an entry on an elephant. Instead, his bodyguard Lou (Larry Myo Leong), in an injured state, makes the entry. Nick sees the Maharajah being taken away to the mainland forcibly. Nick and Audrey take charge and realize that not many knew that the Maharajah was going to enter the venue on an elephant. This means that the suspects are the ones who knew about the plan and they are Maharajah’s sister Saira (Kuhoo Verma), Maharajah’s fiancée Claudette (Mélanie Laurent), Maharajah’s ex-fiancee Countess Sekou (Jodie Turner-Smith), Maharajah’s friend and ex-soccer player Francisco (Enrique Arce) and Colonel Ulenga (John Kani). What happens next forms the rest of the film. James Vanderbilt's story is entertaining. James Vanderbilt's screenplay is peppered with some funny and outrageous moments just like the first part. But unlike MURDER MYSTERY [2019], the suspense factor is disappointing in MURDER MYSTERY 2. The dialogues are one of the strengths of the film and enhance the humour quotient in several scenes. Jeremy Garelick's direction is decent. A few scenes are well shot and thought out and will surely raise loads of laughs. The first half is quite good and sets the mood. The Indian audiences particularly would enjoy the pre-wedding scene due to the desi touch. Two scenes stand out here –the suspects sneaking into Nick and Audrey’s room one by one, and Nick and Audrey negotiating with the kidnapper on the phone. The climax has its share of thrills too. On the flipside, the revelation of the villain is unexpected but is also quite silly. The motive of the character to turn villain is not explained. The track of the Countess fails to entice as well. And the big problem with the film is that it’s too short. It has a runtime of 90 minutes, out of which the end credits take up to 11 minutes. Hence, the actual film is just 79 minutes long and viewers will feel cheated as it ends too soon. MURDER MYSTERY was also not quite lengthy. It was 8 minutes longer than the sequel but had enough meat in the script and the villain angle was justified. All these factors are missing here. Speaking of performances, Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston both are adorable and very funny. Yet again, they make a fantastic team and keep the viewers glued to the narrative. Adeel Akhtar is entertaining in a cameo. Mark Strong (Miller) leaves a huge mark. Enrique Arce is good as the creepy guy and brings the house down in a few scenes. Kuhoo Verma, Mélanie Laurent, Jodie Turner-Smith, John Kani and Larry Myo Leong are fine in the supporting roles. Zurin Villanueva (Imani) is memorable thanks to her laugh. Jillian Bell (Susan) is decent. Dany Boon (Inspector Delacroix) is dependable. Rupert Gregson-Williams's music has a cinematic feel. Bojan Bazelli's cinematography is splendid. The locales of Paris, especially, are very well shot. Perry Andelin Blake's production design is top class. Debra McGuire's costumes are glamorous. Special mention should be made of Jennifer Aniston’s lehenga in the pre-wedding sequence, designed by Manish Malhotra. The action is family-friendly. Tom Costain and Brian M Robinson's editing is sharp. On the whole, MURDER MYSTERY 2 works due to the fun moments and the performances of Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston. However, the suspense element is weak and hence, the film turns out to be an average fare. But thanks to the immense hype and popularity of the first part, MURDER MYSTERY 2 will surely record huge viewership on Netflix.

Director Siddharth Anand has delivered two monstrous hits back to back with War and now Pathaan, which has also become the all-time highest-grossing Hindi film worldwide in the history of cinema. He feels a ‘huge sense of vindication’ with Pathaan proving that people want to come to theatres to see films that give audiences a larger-than-life experience! Siddharth and the visionary S.S. Rajamouli are also the only two directors in the coveted Rs. 500 crore nett collection club in Hindi format. Siddharth has also blunted the narrative that Hindi films are being check-mated by South films at the box office. Siddharth says, “There is a huge sense of vindication with Pathaan doing well at the box office. What I believe that films weren’t doing well in the middle because those films were made pre-pandemic. So, there was a period where cinemas were shut and we couldn’t release our films, people weren’t coming back – so there was a prolonged break for our films.” He adds, “And those films were made pre-pandemic, there is a mindset that has changed post-pandemic. There is a viewing pattern that has changed. And those films were unfortunately victims of that change. Even when I was making War, there was a sense of parallel cinema is the new commercial cinema in 2018-2019. You had small independent films and big ideas doing much better than tentpole films till War happened. That time also I felt that – Oh my God, has the viewing pattern changed but War again proved if you make a good cinematic experience film for our masses people will come to theatres.” Siddharth has delivered the biggest hits of superstars Shah Rukh Khan & Hrithik Roshan in these high octane spy films. He says, “I’d like to believe is that I don’t differentiate between the class and the mass audience. I try and cater to both subconsciously – it’s not an effort. So, I try and get all the quadrants to enjoy my films. And if you do that – the results are there in Pathaan.” ALSO READ: Siddharth Anand claims Pathaan deleted scene might be featured in OTT version

Veteran actress Zeenat Aman, who has been very creative with her Instagram account since her debut on the social media platform in February has now spoken about older women being seen less in public eye.

On Thursday, Zeenat took to Instagram and posted a picture of herself along with a long message where she spoke about the importance of “older women” in life. Sharing the picture, she wrote in caption, “We see very few older women in the public eye. It’s not something I thought about when I was young, but now that I myself am silver-haired, I feel their absence. It’s a puzzling phenomenon, simply because older women mould, protect and nurture us in so many ways worthy of celebration. There is just no substitute for the wisdom of experience and years.” Expressing her gratitude towards the people in her life, she wrote, “My entire life I have known older women who have anchored me. My mother, yes, but others too. My friend Khadija whose generosity towards me was unsurpassed and who, being widowed young, displayed an inner steel that inspired me. My dear, ever-patient Sartaj, who is always there to make me laugh, but who was also by my side during days of intense grief. Kavi, who is steadfast as a rock and cradles our friendship even when I am neglectful. My stepmother Shamim aunty, who doted on my sons and to whom I could entrust them no matter the hour… How different and colourless life would have been without their influence.” “When you sweep your eyes across the landscape of your life, do you not also find the influence of older women? I would be interested to know your stories. Stories of how a mother or aunt or grandmother or sister or woman friend carried you in your time of hesitance or need. If you don’t have a story to share, then maybe this post can serve as a reminder to drop a ♥️ to an older woman who enriches your life,” Zeenat concluded. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Zeenat Aman (@thezeenataman) Soon after she shared the post, several fans shared their stories in the comments section. Bollywood actress Kajol commented, “So well said!” Reacting to the post, a fan wrote, “You express so beautifully Zeenatji.

Talented and versatile actress Priyanka Chopra has established herself in both Bollywood and Hollywood. She is not hesitant to speak her thoughts and utilise her position to spread awareness and encourage change, which is one of the things.

It would require grovelling and I had worked a long time by then so I didn’t feel like I wanted to do it,” on the podcast.

read moreMrunal Thakur finally opens up on why she had shared a crying photo of herself; say, “There are a lot of problems that the actor or the personality faces”
Bollywood actress Mrunal Thakur had recently posted a teary-eyed photo and spoke about how vulnerable and naive she was. In a recent interview, Mrunal stated that she felt so calm after publishing that particular post and added that one shouldn't be afraid of being vulnerable. Mrunal had posted a photo of herself crying earlier this month on her Instagram Stories. Along with the picture, she wrote, “Yesterday was tough. But today I'm stronger, wiser and happy! Everybody has pages in their stories they don't read out loud but I'm choosing to read mine out loud – because maybe someone out needs to learn the lesson I learnt.” Mrunal also added, “Taking one day at a time! It's ok to be naive and vulnerable.” In an interview with news agency PTI, Mrunal said, “Sometimes you want to hear good things, you want that push from someone and after putting that post out, I felt so relaxed. Most people have stopped being vulnerable. There are days when we feel low, sad, we feel under confident but that does not mean that a big word (depression) is to be used. There is a thin line between feeling low and seeking help. I am just saying don't be afraid of being vulnerable, just own it.” She further added, “In today's world, especially with social media, everything looks nice, pretty and aspirational, but trust me there is a lot of hard work that goes behind that. There are a lot of problems that the actor or the personality faces. So, that post was just to normalise feeling vulnerable. Today, I feel like I have heard my inner voice in a world, where there are so many voices around me. I choose to listen to my inner voice. So I am really happy.” Meanwhile, on the work front, Mrunal was last seen in Sita Ramam with Dulquer Salmaan. She also did a cameo in Akshay Kumar starrer Selfiee. She could be seen shaking a leg with Akshay in the song ‘Kudiye Ni Teri’. She will be next seen in Pippa opposite Ishan Khatter. She also has Gumraah with Aditya Roy Kapoor.

Check out who wore what at the Dior show REKHA Rekha arrived dressed in a glistening pink and gold Kanjeevaram saree, looking divine. Although Rekha's choice of clothing didn't surprise us—we expected her to wear another one of her many lovely sarees—it was her grace that caught everyone's eye. Rekha opted for a half-sleeved blouse over the customary saree ensemble. She accessorised the saree, which featured exquisite self-designs over the body, with gold and diamond-studded jewellery (including a statement necklace, jhumkas, and bangles), and carried a potli bag that was also adorned with gold. Rekha, who doesn't mind wearing bright lips, kept the rest of her makeup basic while sporting her trademark red lips. We adored the flower-adorned hairdo she wore to further accentuate her diva appearance. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Bollywood Hungama???? (@realbollywoodhungama) ANANYA PANDAY Ananya Panday's numerous adorable outfits, vibrant tops, and assortment of distinctive skirts highlight her lively and feminine fashion sense. She also keeps a lot of co-ord sets in her wardrobe. For instance, she recently attended the Dior event dressed in a pink skirt and top. A straight skirt and a pink half-sleeve crop top gave doll like appearance to the ensemble. Her top had a round neckline as well. To break up the monotony of all pink, Panday combined the pink pieces with black and white loafers and a little lady Dior purse. She chose a silver choker necklace and matching earrings as her accessories. Her beauty appearance includes blush pink makeup, side-parted hair, and kohl-rimmed eyes. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Bollywood Hungama????

It has never happened that we didn't swoon over her fashion choices. She is the woman who has captured our hearts and who always steps out in style.

It has a matching notch-lapel jacket, embellished kitten sandals, a choker necklace, jhumkis, and statement rings, as well as a button-down shirt and midi-length skirt combination. She stuck to her makeup routine of bare skin tones and thick mascara. Her hair was worn in waves that were tousled.

She has long provided fashion lovers with some fantastic styling advice. She wore a white, one-shouldered Grecian-style gown to the Dior event. The floor-length dress clung to her slender frame and had a stunning one-shoulder design with a beautiful bow over the shoulder to break up the simplicity of the dress. Athiya complemented her sophisticated look with a bracelet, a delicate pearl choker, a set of pearl crystal earrings, and a lady Dior purse in white. The stunning woman kept her makeup elegant with a slick of black eye liner and generous amounts of bright red lipstick. She wore her black hair in a chignon with a sharp middle part.

read more23 Years of Hera Pheri EXCLUSIVE: Firoz Nadiadwala reveals that the response to the film wasn’t very encouraging initially: “One distributor called and told me, ‘Sir, bahut kharab response hai. Picture gayi’”
Hera Pheri (2000) has become an indispensable part of our lives today. The comic caper, starring Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, Paresh Rawal and Tabu, is considered one of the greatest films of Indian cinema today. In the world of memes, it has achieved iconic status and is a major reason why Hera Pheri 3, expected to go on floors soon, is arguably the most awaited Bollywood film. However, many would be shocked to know that the response to Hera Pheri initially wasn’t very encouraging. As the film completes 23 years today, Bollywood Hungama exclusively brings to you fascinating trivia, which was narrated to us by none other than producer Firoz Nadiadwala. Firoz Nadiadwala said, “Hera Pheri was released on a Friday. A day before, till midnight, Akshay ji, Paresh ji, Suniel, Neeraj ji (writer Neeraj Vora) and I were shooting for the trailer in the lawn of my bungalow! Woh zamana tha jab promos aate the MTV ya Sony, Star aur Zee ke channels pe. And this was a time when we would shoot on film. So we would edit, develop it and deliver it to the channels by Friday night so that they’ll air it on Sunday.” Firoz continued, “So on Friday, the film was released and I was busy cutting the promo in the Prime Focus office. I had not slept the whole night and had to work 7-8 hours more. At 5:00 pm, one distributor called from North India. He told me, ‘Sir, bahut kharab response hai. Picture gayi.’ I was shocked. I had to collect myself. I went back into the studio to finish work as it had to be done, regardless of the fate of the film.” But then, things changed within a few hours. Firoz Nadiadwala excitedly shared, “At 7:30 pm, I got a call from an exhibitor from the Delhi/UP circuit. He said, ‘Aapko pata hai na picture ke saath kya hua. It is unbelievable’ I replied, ‘Chhodo yaar. Mujhe malum hai. Mujhe mera kaam karne do’. The exhibitor then said, ‘Aap aa ke dekho. Dialogue nahi sunaai de rahe hai’. I retorted, ‘Kaise sunaayi denge dialogues public ko jab public theatre mein hi nahi hai’ (laughs)! That exhibitor was shocked and asked me, ‘Aapka dimaag kharab ho gaya hai kya?’ He then revealed that those who saw the film in the 12:00 pm and 3:00 pm shows have come again to watch the film in the 6:00 pm show. That exhibitor also told me that the repeat viewers have persuaded their friends or family members to join and they’d tell them ‘Abhi dekhna kya dialogue aane waala hai’.” Firoz smiled as he signed off, “I couldn’t believe my ears. I then called Gaiety-Galaxy. Even there, the reactions were the same. I just looked up and thanked God!” Hera Pheri’s success led Firoz Nadiadwala to make Phir Hera Pheri (2006). This film also worked big time and has been kept alive by the memes.

Dia Mirza recently wrote an emotional post for filmmaker Anubhav Sinha for the experience she had in his film Bheed, which set in the times of the first COVID-19 wave. When asked how important the film has been for her, the actress told Bollywood Hungama exclusively, “This is a story that needed to be told. It’s an archival film. I hope many generations will revisit to remember what happened. I also feel that it’s a very important film that holds the mirror to us. It speaks to our conscience and seeks answers we need to come up with as people.” Also starring Rajkummar Rao, Bhumi Pednekar, Pankaj Kapur and Aditya Shrivastav, Bheed saw Dia play the character of a mother struggling to be with her daughter during the first COVID-19 lockdown imposed in March 2020. “It’s a very important part that reveals how privilege also leads to entitlement,” said the actress. “What I loved about the character was that because of her entitlement she doesn’t put somebody else’s needs above her own. I think the film really begs for us to change as people.” The arrival of COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent lockdown was something that came out of the blue for every citizen. Dia was grateful to be with her mom when the lockdown was imposed. “I was comfortable,” she added. “Of course, I lived in a co-op that had many senior citizens. I was on the managing committee. The first thing was to put protocols in place to ensure the safety and health of all the inhabitants of the building. Also, to ensure that the essentials are reaching everyone because many senior citizens were living alone.” Dia has been choosing meaningful characters in recent years. When asked what all she considers before agreeing to be a part of a project, she said, “I care about being a part of subjects and narratives that help make a difference in some way or the other. I have been fortunate enough to be cast in parts like that. I feel like it’s an extension of just identifying what my purpose is. I feel as an artiste all arts that I am a part of has to be born out of heart. It needs to come from a place of empathy and care.” Dia will next be seen in the film Dhak Dhak with Ratna Pathak Shah, Fatima Sana Shaikh and Sanjana Sanghi.

Not only this, but he also impressed his fans with his performance in Love Hostel. After embracing the Most Stylish OTT Entertainer award, Deol asserted, “Award kaafi kam milte the humari family mai.
