Tiger Shroff has managed to strike a good deal before the debacle of Bade Miyan Chote Miyan. The action star bagged the contract for a flavoured elaichi brand after Akshay Kumar opted out, owing to criticism from junta janardhan. However, Ajay Devgn and Shah Rukh Khan continue to be associated with the brand. The new commercial showcases Ajay, SRK, and Tiger trying to resolve a traffic jam. The ad has evoked funny comments from netizens. One social media user commented, “Bade Miyan left [gutka] verse, and Chote Miyan joined.” For the uninitiated, Akki had apologised for his association with the brand, pledged to donate his endorsement fees to charity, and vowed to be more mindful of future brand associations. Previously, Amitabh Bachchan had ended his association with the brand following a public uproar.
Money matters
Pushpa 2: The Rule, the Allu Arjun-starrer continues to attract big moolah. Talk in the trade is that producer-distributor Jayantilal Gada has acquired the satellite rights for the Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam versions of the eagerly-awaited film. “The anticipation for Pushpa 2 is very high. So, long before its theatrical release, there has been a huge clamour for its digital and satellite deals. It is not surprising that Jayanti bhai has bagged the blanket deal because he will re-sell the satellite rights to the highest bidder later.” The sequel to Pushpa: The Rise (2021) has already closed its streaming deal for about R275 crore and north Indian theatrical distribution for R200 crore.
Ranbir, Sai begin epic shoot
It is known that Nitesh Tiwari has begun filming his epic project, Ramayana. The filmmaker kicked off the first schedule with Lara Dutta and Arun Govil, who play Rani Kaikeyi and Maharaja Dashrath, respectively. Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi, as Lord Ram and Princess Sita, have now begun filming their portions. Pictures from their shoot have made their way to social media. Clad in a maroon and gold outfit, Ranbir can be seen sporting long hair, while Sai is also dressed in similar colours. Based on the epic, the trilogy reportedly also stars Sunny Deol as Hanuman and Yash as Raavan. The two actors will have brief roles in the first edition but will play pivotal roles as the narrative progresses.
Take three for Junaid
Aamir Khan’s son, Junaid Khan, has completed shooting his second film, co-starring Sai Pallavi. They recently wrapped up the 58-day schedule of the yet-untitled romantic comedy, most of which is set against the exotic locales of Sapporo in Japan. However, instead of taking a break, Junaid has begun prep for his third film, the details of which are being kept under wraps. The actor will make his acting debut with Rash Raj Films’ Maharaj, which releases directly on Netflix.
Back to being herself
Sonam K Ahuja, who is known for her sartorial sense, recently spoke about her fashion choices after welcoming son Vayu in August 2022. The actor revealed being traumatised when she gained 32 kilos. “You are so obsessed with your baby, you are not thinking about working out or eating right,” she reportedly said. Sonam shared her experience of motherhood on social media and wrote, “It has taken me 16 months to feel like myself again. Slowly, steadily, without any crash diets or crazy workouts, just consistent self-care and baby care. I’m almost where I want to be.”
A more personal joy
Manoj Bajpayee, who has completed three decades in the industry and is gearing up for his 100th film, has another reason to be happy. This time the reason is more personal, as his daughter, Ava Nayla, is working on improving her Hindi. The actor had previously spoken about how his daughter was becoming an ‘angrez’, and her teacher expected her to be better in the language considering his body of work. In a recent conversation with Bharti Singh and Haarsh Limbachiyaa, Manoj shared, “My daughter’s Hindi is improving, and now she is getting good marks in it. Because she wasn’t speaking the language in school, and if even we don’t speak, then there will be a problem. Phir toh woh Taylor Swift hi sunegi.”
