Jackky Bhagnani returns to acting after six years with Independence Day anthem 'Tere Rang Mein': "I wanted the street credibility and respect of Gen Z"

The actor-producer said the song offered him an opportunity to return to the screen with a project that was personally meaningful to him. Bhagnani described himself as a patriot and said the nature of the song played an important role in his decision to face the camera again. “I am a patriot by heart. It’s been quite some time since I faced the camera. So, I thought the best way to come back is with the right cause,” Bhagnani said.

According to Bhagnani, stepping away from acting was a conscious decision as he worked behind the scenes and became more involved in producing films.

“Vivek Oberoi dives so deep into his roles that you have to hold his hand and stop him”, says Dharavi Bank director Samit Kakkad

Filmmaker Samit Kakkad is known for helming films like Aayna Ka Bayna, Half Ticket (both Marathi), Ascharya Chak It, etc. His next is an out-and-out underworld saga in the form of the MX Player web-series Dharavi Bank, which recently started streaming. It tells the story of a tussle between an underworld leader and a powerful cop, played by Suniel Shetty and Vivek Oberoi respectively.

As per the makers, Kakkad was keen on shooting the show in as many real locations as possible and for that he said he received fine support from Vivek. “I've worked with all sorts of actors, across age and experience brackets,” said the filmmaker in a statement. “Vivek has the unique quality to dive deep into his roles, so much so that you have to hold his hand and stop him from going further down. He’s deeply invested in every aspect of a project - his character, the setting, the way it's being told, the lens on his character and the list goes on.”

Sharing his happiness at having Vivek on board, Kakkad added, “I got lucky that my most ambitious project features him because with him, it doesn't take much to crack a scene. He’s prepared at all times with the entire piece that he’s playing out. It was a smooth run with him and I hope there will be more to this in the future.”

Dharavi Bank is Kakkad’s second web show with MX Player after Indori Ishq.

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...

Omen (Augure) review – Baloji offers secrets and sorcery in Congolese homecoming

Musician and film-maker’s story about a Belgian-Congolese man who takes his white wife to DRC to meet the family is complex, risky and bold Congolese-born rapper, musician and film-maker Baloji (né Serge Baloji Tshiani) was a prizewinner at Cannes last year with this feature directing debut: a dynamic, teemingly populated, multistranded and tonally elusive picture which I initially thought would benefit from comparisons with Jordan Peele’s horror classic Get Out. In fact, it’s more complicated than that. Koffi (Marc Zinga) is a Congolese man living in Belgium and married to a white woman, Alice (Lucie Debay). They are about to have twins and Koffi feels that he cannot put it off any further: whatever his family will think, the couple must journey back to the Democratic Republic of the Congo to let them see Alice and let them get used to the idea. It particularly means propitiating his fiercely conservative mother Mujila (Yves-Marina Gnahoua). He takes care to shave off his westernis...
