Alright, folks were waiting for Krishna 4, right? Keep
waiting, I'll tell you what's gonna happen. Let's start with Ramayan. A lot of
people were complaining that the movie is coming out and it's being said that
it's made on a huge scale. They've invested so much money. And if the movie
doesn't make money in international markets, they won't even be able to recover
their budget. So where's the promotion? Because if you're planning to release
such a big movie internationally, and many big movies...
If we want to compete with Hollywood, then the promotions
have to be just as big. So, word is that a huge Ramayana event is being planned
for Ram Navami. They've invited big politicians, cricketers,
businessmen—basically everyone. And it’s said that this whole event will be
showcased on a grand scale. It’s going to happen right in front of India Gate,
where the Ramayana cast and characters will be introduced, and there’ll be some
glimpses of visuals too. Speaking of which, a new cast member’s name has been confirmed...
Diya Raghav Jayaal will be playing the role of Meghnath, who
is Ravana's son. This led to a lot of speculation—people started wondering, if
casting is happening now, then the shooting for Part One must be already done.
So where will this role fit in? Probably in Part Two. Maybe Meghnath has a very
small role in Part One, but in Part Two, as we all know, he’s a really
important character. There was also a bit of controversy about this. At first,
it was said that Vikrant Massey would play this role, but then Raghav was cast
instead.
So people started getting confused about what actually
happened here. Then Vikrant himself posted the story on his Instagram and
clarified that he was never cast in that role. So, there's no question of any
controversy. Also, the sequel to "Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara" is
coming. It's almost confirmed that the old cast members are returning for it.
The director, who is Zoya Akhtar, has locked the script and she’ll be back in
the director’s seat. And since the cast is the same, it’s said that the story
will be from their perspective.
The characters’ lives will be revisited once again. But this
time, it’s at a different stage—they’ve moved forward in their stories. And
once again, the same theme will be explored: how they’re now dealing with a
mid-life crisis and, because of that, they revisit things, connect their
stories, and see how everything unfolds from there. Honestly, I don’t even need
to think much about it. Bro, we all know life only comes once, and this is the peak.
Absolute peak. Then Akshay Kumar joined Golmaal 5.
It's done. Yeah, the Suryavanshi has now entered the Singham
universe. Rahul Raut confirmed this, and earlier it was rumored that he might
be the movie's antagonist, like the main villain. But how would there be a
villain in Golmaal? Then it came out that he’s not a villain. Just a character
who will create obstacles in Ajay Devgn's life. Like how we’ve seen him in
movies like "Mujhse Shaadi Karogi" and "For Bhaijaan."
Hearing this, a lot of people started speculating that the old...
There might be a remake of the movie "Do Do
Paanch." But Rohit Shetty himself came forward and said that's not
happening. However, he didn't say anything about Akshay Kumar being cast, so
you can take that as confirmed. Then, Alia Bhatt is set to do her next Hindi
film with her director Abhishek Pathak. The movie is called
"Housewife," and it's said to portray the life of a married couple.
But things won't be that simple. They're in talks with Rajkummar Rao, who has
shown interest in the project.
So, they've shown it, but nothing's signed or finalized yet.
If everything goes well, shooting will start around August or September 2026.
Besides that, Alia Bhatt is working on "Chamunda" with the Maddock
team. She was just waiting to finish "Love and War" so she could jump
into shooting that. The thing is, the Maddock folks are thinking of
restructuring their whole horror-comedy universe again. Since
"Thama," they've been trying to streamline things even more. So,
because of that, it's uncertain for now, but yeah.
The shooting of Shakti Shalini is about to start. After a
lot of script changes, they’re finally kicking off the shoot in March. Anit
Padda is definitely in the movie, and earlier there was speculation that the
male lead might be Lakshya. But nope, that’s not the case. Now it’s said that
the male protagonist will be the character played by Vishal Jethwa, whom we saw
in Homebound. So, it’s basically a sequel to Bhaag Milkha Bhaag. But there’s a
small catch. Remember the first part with Paresh Rawal and Akshay Kumar?
Govinda was in it. So two people are coming back. But
Govinda has been replaced by Manoj Bajpayee, which is actually a pretty
interesting choice, by the way. And this story, just like the first part, will
have the same comedy of errors, chaos, mistaken identities—all that stuff mixed
in. Right now, Akshay Kumar and Anees Bazmee are wrapping up a comedy film.
Right after that, meaning in March, the shooting for this movie will start. The
movie is being directed by Raj Shandilya, who previously directed Dream Girl,
Dream Girl 2, and Vicky Vidya.
He's directed movies like the Wala video, so he has
experience, but the first part was created by Priyadarshan. If he can do
something like that chaos again, it'll be fun; otherwise, it won't mean much.
Speaking of which, Akshay Kumar and Priyadarshan's next movie is based on the
same Bhool Bhulaiyaa combo. There's more info about Bhoot Bangla too. It's
being said that Bhoot Bangla was actually planned as a sequel to Bhool Bhulaiyaa.
Like, when Priyadarshan first made Bhool Bhulaiyaa, he was confident that...
They had a chance to make a sequel and had almost outlined
the story for it. But since T-Series decided they wanted to take a different
route, Anis Bazmee came on board, along with Kartik Aryan, and projects like
Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 and something else happened. So now, Priyadarshan’s Bhool
Bhulaiyaa 2 has turned into Bhoot Bangla. But that doesn’t mean the story will
be like Bhool Bhulaiyaa. They’ve reworked the script a bit. And it makes sense
because the original cast from Bhool Bhulaiyaa is all back. The whole Bhool
Bhulaiyaa combo is back.
So it kind of makes sense. And honestly, it just makes me
even more excited for this movie. Because the release date has changed again.
If you remember, it was originally set for April 2nd. Then it got pushed to May
15th for some reason. But recently, they announced that the movie is coming out
in April again. And it’s not going to be the 2nd, but April 10th. Man, I really
want to watch this movie. Even the promotional stuff they released with the
announcement wasn’t all that...
It wasn’t impactful. You could clearly tell it was made with
AI and all. But still, I’ll wait for the main stuff—the official marketing
teaser, trailer, and all. I’m pretty excited to see those. But there’s a small
problem. If this movie is releasing on April 10, that means Bhaijaan’s movie,
Battle of Galwan, which is coming out on April 17, will almost clash with it.
So that’s a bit of a big change, not just a small one. They’re saying that
Battle of Galwan...
They have to do some reshoots. The exact reason isn't clear,
but it seems there are some issues with the censor board and a few minor
things. So, they've decided to do some reshoots. Because of this, the movie's
original release date, which was Eid on April 17th, will probably get delayed.
It's expected that the movie will now most likely target the weekend of August
15th, which is Independence Day. But if they do that, the movie will clash with
another release called Lahore 1947, which is currently set for the 13th.
It's coming out in August. Well, things are more about the
release date than the movie itself, and there's always some fight or argument
going on because of the clash. It's pretty entertaining. Since we're talking
about clashes, it reminded me of when these guys announced Don 3 with Ranveer
Singh, and it actually led to some gangster-like fights and clashes. Here's
what happened: Excel Entertainment, which is Farhan Akhtar's company, announced
Don 3 with Ranveer Singh. But now Ranveer Singh has backed out of the movie.
Because of this, now these two...
There’s a dispute of around ₹40 crore between the parties,
and it’s been escalating quite a bit. Ranveer Singh and his team are saying
that Ranveer didn’t really like the movie’s script. He told people multiple
times to make changes, but nothing changed. That’s why he backed out. But the
makers, Excel Entertainment, say that Ranveer Singh had approved the script.
That’s why they reached the pre-production stage—like building the movie sets
and all the pre-production stuff.
It had already started. And because of that, the people who
faced financial losses and wasted things should be compensated by Ranveer
Singh. But they talked for a really long time and didn’t reach any conclusion.
So, let’s see what happens next—I’ll keep you updated. That’s why you should
subscribe! You don’t, though. Then the Ramayan team can do their marketing or
not. The marketing for Varanasi, which is coming out next April, has already
started because Mahesh Babu, Priyanka Chopra, and the entire cast have all...
Variety and other big Hollywood media outlets gave a lot of
interviews, and during this time, SS Rajamouli himself said that about 25
minutes of the movie will be set in the Ramayana era, and he can’t wait to
experience it. Plus, he also mentioned that Varanasi is a one-part film. He
took a long time thinking about whether to split it into two parts or keep it
as one, but finally decided it’s better to conclude it in a single part. Also,
Mahesh Babu who...
He said in an interview that he’s going to play the role of
Lord Ram in the movie. It’s confirmed now. He himself revealed it. For him, the
most important thing was posture. He mentioned that Lord Ram carries himself in
a unique way—not like you or me walking around. Because of that, he underwent
intense training just to perfect his posture, balance, and overall body
alignment. He took about three months for this. Then, regarding the movie’s
main...
The antagonist is Prithviraj Sukumaran. He said that
although his character is shown in a wheelchair, there’s a lot more depth to it
than what meets the eye. The wheelchair isn’t just a prop—it’s actually a part
of his character, Kumbh’s body, like an extension of himself. How he uses it
will only be clear after watching the movie. Also, according to the official
synopsis released by Discussing Film, the story is about Rudra, a devotee of
Shiva, who has to travel back in time to obtain a cosmic artifact. But when—
He finds out that a really powerful supervillain is also
after the same artifact. So, these are the events of the movie. Basically, time
travel is pretty much confirmed now. I'm super hyped about everything, man.
Now, talking about the Dhurandhar 2 trailer—or rather, its small teaser—we’ve
already seen that, so no big surprise there. But some light rumors about the
trailer have started popping up, saying that a huge event is being planned for
its launch, which will be hosted at the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Center.
It’s going to happen, but the date isn’t confirmed yet. However,
Aditya Dhar’s birthday is on March 12—I’m just saying. According to an article
on Bollywood Hungama, Krish 4 is in a bit of trouble. The reason is there are
some disagreements between Hrithik Roshan and the producer Aditya Chopra from
YRF about the budget. Hrithik believes this movie needs a budget of around 500
crores if they really want to do justice to the next part of Krish. And I
totally get it. I mean, Krish is at a certain level now.
Expectations are high. So nothing should be lacking in anything.
Just look at Raja Sahab’s VFX, even the smallest details. The movie’s VFX are
top-notch, no less than any big film. But Aditya Chopra doesn’t want to take
such a huge risk. He’s said he can’t go above 350 crores. Though that’s still a
big amount, Hrithik Roshan feels it needs 500. And because of that, for now,
Krish 4 has been shelved again. Whether it’s officially shelved or not, the
fact is it’s not being made right now.
It was thought that the movie would start very soon. But that's not happening. Plus, Hrithik Roshan isn’t waiting for it anymore. He’s going to start working on some other movie. I've heard about "Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara 2." Maybe we’ll get involved in that. They’re going to allocate their time to some other project. And I feel, right now, whether Krish 4 needs money or not, it definitely needs some magic.
