The All Indian Cine Workers Association has urged Bollywood to find work that suits actor Sharad Kapoor, known for 'Josh'. Its president, Suresh Shyamla Gupta, asked filmmakers and stars to support him, noting that he is 50 and needs help now.
The appeal follows a viral clip in which Kapoor handed his dogs over to an NGO because of poor health. Actress Jaya Bhattacharya then visited him, and in a video she shared, he asked CINTAA for work, saying money is not the issue and he simply wants to work again.
Maharashtra chief minister Devendra Fadnavis says the Lawrence Bishnoi gang is aiming to intimidate people in the film world, and that the masterminds will be caught soon.
Two suspected hitmen fired at actor Tiger Shroff's car in Juhu on October 18, wounding his driver and a bystander. Police arrested the shooters and an accomplice in Rajasthan within 15 hours.
So far 13 people have been held across several states. Fadnavis says about four people run the gang from abroad, and one of them was arrested in the US.
Actor Soha Ali Khan shared old black-and-white photos of her parents, Sharmila Tagore and Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, posing alongside Jawaharlal Nehru for Children's Day on November 14.
The three pictures show a young Sharmila attaching something to Nehru's coat, her standing beside him at All India Radio, and Tiger seated next to him at an occasion that is not identified in the post.
Soha wrote that her parents were children once too, and that Nehru wanted the day to focus on the nation's future rather than on himself. She closed by wishing every child the chance to chase big dreams.
Lara Dutta, who plays Kaikeyi in Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana, has posted a behind-the-scenes clip of her team cutting a stuck bracelet off her wrist with a hacksaw.
She joked that getting the look came close to costing her a wrist. Viewers have also debated her costume, with some calling it too modern, and she defended it by saying the jewellery was standardised across the three kingdoms to set their cultures apart.
The first part has earned over ₹1,000 crore worldwide, and the second is due in 2028.
Actor Sharad Kapoor is in the news again, this time over his health. He is away from work with a leg injury he says he got playing football in Barcelona, and he says he is looking for good work.
Fans grew worried after a recent video in which he became emotional over his four pet dogs being sent to an animal welfare centre. A friend later said his leg was broken.
He rose to fame with his role in Shah Rukh Khan's Josh. His last film, Jabariya Jodi from 2019, did not do well at the box office.
Actor Shobhinaw Satyaa says he never doubted Hanuman Ansh would find its audience, even when its early box office collections were weak. In a podcast interview, he recalled that when Sadhu Sir phoned around day four or five, he asked him to be patient.
Satyaa admitted he privately thought Rs 100 crore was a possible target, yet kept saying Rs 500 crore out loud. His confidence came from an early cut of about five hours and 15 minutes, which still lacked visual effects and original music but already had strong writing and performances.
