SCOOP: Rajkumar Hirani and Kanika Dhillon reworking on the SECOND HALF of Shah Rukh Khan's next? November 25, 2020 at 04:30PM

Bollywood Hungama has been providing exclusive updates on Shah Rukh Khan for the last few months, keeping a close eye on the stuff that he is planning to chalk a comeback in the film industry after a relatively dry run at the box-office. We also revealed how SRK has started shooting for YRF’s Pathan without much of a fanfare and the film will release during the Diwali 2020 weekend. Bollywood Hungama has now exclusively learnt the reason why the superstars’ next film with Rajkumar Hirani is taking longer than expected.

SCOOP: Rajkumar Hirani and Kanika Dhillon reworking on the SECOND HALF of Shah Rukh Khan's next?

“Rajkumar Hirani and his writing partner, Kanika Dhillon, have been working on the script and after writing down multiple drafts, they felt that the second half isn’t really on par with their expectations. And hence, they have gone back to the drawing board, rewriting the entire second half of the film,” a source told Bollywood Hungama, adding further that this is not a reason to worry, rather the pattern of how Rajkumar Hirani works. “He takes his own time to lock the script and would take a film on floors only when he is 100% satisfied with what’s written on paper. Hirani isn’t someone who would rush on to the things just to finish and release a film, as for him direction is a matter of passion and not just a money minting exercise. The script should hopefully be locked by summer 2021 and only then will he proceed to other aspects of pre-production,” the source further told Bollywood Hungama.

Apart from Raju Hirani and Pathan, Shah Rukh Khan has also shown keen interest in director Atlee’s action packed thriller, which features him in a double role. However, he will take a final call on his next after Pathan by mid-2021 based on his state of mind, once he reads both the scripts.

SCOOP: Filmfare Awards, Screen Awards, Zee Cine Awards won't take place next year? November 25, 2020 at 11:19AM

The beginning of a new year brings a lot of positivity and hope, and also ushers in the awards season. However, 2021 might be an exception in this regard. The Coronavirus pandemic has led to a lot of change in the status quo of all fields and Bollywood is no exception. With the disease still not in control, the battle against the virus will continue in 2021 as well. And this would mean the awards ceremony, televised to a million viewers globally, might not happen at all. A source claims, “The major award shows like Filmfare Awards, Screen Awards, Zee Cine Awards etc might not take place in 2021. These ceremonies involve celebrities from all walks of lives congregating in huge numbers at a particular venue. In times of social distancing, that won’t be a practical thing to do. And most importantly, there have hardly been any releases in 2020. After March 13, there has been no major release in the post-lockdown period. Only Suraj Pe Mangal Bhari released in this season and a couple of ...

Aditya Chopra plans Yash Chopra bio-pic starring Shah Rukh Khan October 01, 2020 at 11:30AM

As Yash Raj Films clocks 50 years of excellence and supremacy, the scion of the empire Aditya Chopra and his intellectual team has come together to thresh out a string of commemorative projects including a grand bio-pic on the founding father of the banner Yash Chopra. Though not much detail is known of the bio-pic as yet I have reason to believe Aditya Chopra is very seriously looking into the project, as he and all likeminded fans of Yash Chopra believe the filmmaker’s saga of self-motivated success is exemplary. And who better qualified to play Yash Chopra than Shah Rukh Khan? Though the casting is yet to be finalized SRK seems the perfect fit, being the favourite actor of father Yash and son Aditya Chopra. Other commemorative projects to mark 50 years of Yash Raj include new film projects that will launch new talent. Aditya Chopra has always been at the forefront of new-talent endeavours. Ranveer Singh and Parineeti Chopra are among Chopra’s recent discoveries. “We will be seei...
