Speaking to Pinkvilla about the film and the treatment of action in it, the director said, “The idea is to showcase different styles of action on screen with two action stars of Indian cinema. I would call my film a culmination of action, drama and comedy. The idea is to celebrate these action stars with a very relevant and contemporary subject in today’s time.”””
“Farah Khan was the latest guest on the home decor show Dream Homes with Gauri Khan, where the choreographer-turned-director requested Shah Rukh Khan’s wife and interior designer Gauri Khan to renovate the family room of the house.
Farah’s family room initially had a lot of colours and was very cluttered. However, Gauri revamped the space as an entertainment area by removing the clutter, installing some art and tropical plants, and refurbishing the sofa and dining set.
Towards the end, reflecting on their friendship, Farah Khan said Gauri had stayed humble despite all her success, “Despite all the success, the money and people fawning over you, she has remained a middle-class Punjabi girl to date. That is the best part about her.””
“Bollywood celebrities are celebrating the festive season in full force as they attend the Durga Puja in the city and sought divine blessings.

“Yesteryear star Madhubala‘s youngest sister Madhur Brij Bhushan has said that there will only be one biopic on her late and celebrated sister — the one that she and her team makes.
“Let me make one thing clear: there’s going to be only one Madhubala biopic that will be backed by me and my team. The idea is to not hurt anyone’s sentiments but we will showcase several unknown facets of Madhu Apa’s life which aren’t out in public. The film shall also put a number of misnomers/inaccuracies about her life to rest.” Bhushan told Pinkvilla in a recent chat.”
“Amitabh Bachchan and Rashmika Mandanna’s film Goodbye is all set to release on October 7. Ahead of the release, the makers have announced that the tickets on the first day will be sold at Rs 150. After National Cinema Day, Goodbye is the first film to adopt the reduced pricing policy of Rs 150 per ticket on the release day.
Through a special video featuring Amitabh, Ekta Kapoor’s Balaji Motion Pictures announced the news on Twitter and wrote, “The #Goodbye family has something exciting for you and your family! This Friday, 7th October, book your tickets at a special price of ₹150/- and take your family through a roller coaster ride of emotions, drama and lots of love!.””
“Meanwhile,
Actor Rashmika Mandanna says she is at a stage in her career where she wants to “spread her wings” and fly into uncharted territories as she wants to learn more about her capabilities. This led Mandanna to Goodbye, her first Hindi film in which she stars alongside the likes of megastar Amitabh Bachchan and seasoned actor Neena Gupta.
“This is the time for me to spread my wings and do every kind of film because it is important to do so as an actor. I don’t want to be comfortable doing a particular kind of film.
“I want to learn and teach myself what my kind of films is because I haven’t figured it out yet,””
“After delivering a smashing performance in his latest entertainer Vikram Vedha, Hrithik Roshan stepped out to feel the festive vibes. The actor visited Falguni Pathak’s Garba night recently, in Mumbai’s Borivali.
Hrithik and Falguni danced on Gujarati Garba ‘Valsadi’ and the singer took to her social media platforms to share pictures and videos of Hrithik dancing with her.
Hrithik came to the pandal along with Vikram Vedha director duo Pushkar and Gayathri. Their film was released in theatres on September 30 and has received critical appreciation from film critics.
Hrithik will next be seen in Yash Raj Films’ Fighter, alongside Deepika Padukone. The film will be directed by Siddharth Anand, who had earlier worked with Hrithik in the 2019 film War”
“Lastly,
The first teaser of Adipurush was recently released to mixed reactions. While there was much appreciation for Prabhas and Kriti Sanon, many were rather baffled by the cartoon-like CGI. Twitter turned into a meme-fest and also pointed out similarities between Marvel’s Avengers, Game of Thrones and several other popular Hollywood franchises.
Several people took to Twitter to express their disappointment at the trailer and the VFX used.
One person wrote, “Requesting everyone to watch this movie instead of #Adipurush even Japanese people created better Ramayan than Om Raut. Adipurush is a scam, anime >>>>cartoon ” The tweet is referring to ‘Ramayana: The Legend of Prince Rama’, made by Koichi Sasaki, Yugo Sako and Ram Mohan.”
