Deepak Mukut claims Do Aur Do Paanch remake rights; reveals, “I wanted to remake it with Bobby Deol and Abhishek Bachchan”

-
Amid reports suggesting that Rohit Shetty’s Golmaal 5 would adapt the 1980 classic Do Aur Do Paanch, producer Deepak Mukut has set the record straight. Mukut, who owns the remake rights to the film, confirms that he, and not Shetty who is developing a new version of Do Aur Do Paanch, and intends to take it on floors soon. “I don’t know where or how the news of someone else doing Do Aur Do Paanch came from. I had to issue a public notice to prevent anyone else from remaking it. I am very serious about doing the film. For nearly ten years, I wanted to remake it with Bobby Deol and Abhishek Bachchan,” says Mukut. The original film, directed by Rakesh Kumar, featured Amitabh Bachchan and Shashi Kapoor as two small-time crooks posing as schoolteachers in a plot to kidnap a wealthy businessman’s son. Hema Malini played a genuine teacher at the same school, adding romance and comic tension to the caper. Interestingly, when Do Aur Do Paanch released in 1980, it turned out to be a rare box-o...

Brad Pitt spent a year scrutinizing for buried treasures in his French estate

-
In a new interview with GQ magazine, Brad Pitt was candid about his struggles with bad habits and the realization that sometimes people need to experience a sense of frustration in life. In addition, the actor spoke about the search for buried treasures in the thousand-acre estate in Provence, which he bought with his ex-wife Angelina Jolie in 2008. However, he was unnerved by the news that somewhere on the territory of the possessions buried gold worth millions of dollars, dating back to the times of the Crusades. The Oscar winner even bought radar equipment and began scouring the site for treasure. "I became obsessed. During the year, I only thought about it; I was simply delighted with all this. Maybe it has something to do with the place where I grew up because, in the Ozarks, there were always stories about hidden caches of gold," Brad said. However, all this was complete nonsense, and all the actions of the treasure hunt did not turn into anything. It turned out that the man who told him about the gold was just trying to talk Pitt into investing in a radar company. Brad admitted that it ended up being "pretty stupid. " "Only the search was exciting," the actor shared. Recall that Pitt and Jolie got married in this very estate in 2014. It was the French estate they bought for $67 million that became the stumbling block in settling their divorce. In 2021, Jolie sold her 50% ownership of Château Miraval. Four months later, Pitt sued Jolie, Accusing her of illegally and inconsistently selling her stake to Russian businessman Yuri Shefler. So far, the proceedings of the ex-spouses have not ended in anything, but Brad definitely associates a lot of memories with this place.

The Miracle Club review – Maggie Smith can’t save this rocky road trip to Lourdes

-
Laura Linney is upstaged by older co-stars Smith and Kathy Bates in this sentimental tale about a group of Dublin women who go on a spiritual journey together Who’s up for a golden-hued heartwarmer set in 60s Ireland starring Kathy Bates and Maggie Smith about women with secret fears and dreams going on a church trip to Lourdes and finally finding the real miracle is their new compassion for each other? The answer to this question could well have been … me. I have a liking for a gentle tale and there is nothing necessarily wrong with, just occasionally, showing Ireland and the church of this period with something other than outrage and horror. But The Miracle Club does not at any time, to use a discredited metaphor, throw away its crutches and walk. And it’s painful to note that this is largely because of the way film can’t convincingly use that estimable actor Laura Linney in a central role. She is upstaged by the older, fruitier performances and doesn’t hold her own with a more seri...
