Vicky Kaushal's next, directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya, quietly goes on floors in Mumbai November 20, 2020 at 04:43PM

This is the 50th year of the premiere production house, Yash Raj Films (YRF). As part of the golden jubilee celebrations, its producer Aditya Chopra has decided to launch some of the biggest films starring most of the prominent actors and actresses of Bollywood. Fans of these actors had hoped that a grand announcement would soon take place. In fact, a few days back, Pathan, one of the most awaited films of next year, starring Shah Rukh Khan, went on floors. It is the first film of SRK as a leading man in almost 2 ½ years and one expected some sort of promotional strategy to announce his ‘comeback’ of sorts after a hiatus. Sadly, that hasn’t happened.

Now, it has emerged that the shoot of another YRF biggie has also commenced quietly. The film in question is directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya, of Tashan (2008), Dhoom 3 (2013) and Thugs Of Hindostan (2018) fame. A source says, “The film went on floors some 10-12 days back in Mumbai. Vicky Kaushal, the leading man, is a part of this schedule and so is Manushi Chhillar.” Manushi, incidentally, just wrapped up Prithviraj, starring Akshay Kumar, and also produced by Aditya Chopra. According to reports, talented actor Yashpal Sharma, who has starred in another YRF production recently, Bunty Aur Babli 2, is also a part of the cast of Vijay Krishna Acharya’s film

Bollywood Hungama had earlier reported that this film is a positive take on religion. The makers have made it clear that they tackle the subject sensitively and do not evoke any sort of controversy.

2 days back, Vicky Kaushal had posted a joyful picture of him reading a script and prepping for a shoot. The caption of the picture was 'Shubh aarambh'. He was seen in an unusual clean-shaving look, leading fans to speculate whether this will be his avatar in Vijay Krishna Acharya’s flick.

After finishing work on this movie, Vicky Kaushal is expected to move on to The Immortal Ashwatthama, an ambitious venture directed by Uri – The Surgical Strike (2019) director Aditya Dhar followed by Sam Manekshaw biopic. Besides these three films, he has a pending release, Udham Singh, directed by Shoojit Sircar. It is expected to release in the first half of 2021.

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...
