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.

Pathaan Row: Protestors attempt to disrupt the shoot of Shah Rukh Khan starrer Dunki in Jabalpur

Not too long ago, it was being reported across media that some protestors went onto even burn effigies of Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone owing to the ‘Besharam Rang’ song controversy. For the unversed, the song from the film Pathaan has apparently offended some politicians and right-wing groups who have slammed the makers for making the actress wear saffron colour bikini and have also taken objection to the dance moves, calling it ‘corrupt’. Now some of them attempted to even disrupt the shoot of another SRK film, Dunki, which is directed by Rajkumar Hirani.

Pathaan Row: Protestors attempt to disrupt the shoot of Shah Rukh Khan starrer Dunki in Jabalpur

As per reports, some members of the Vishnu Parishad and Bajrang Dal, were attempting to protest and disrupt the shoot of Dunki which was happening in some of the picturesque areas of Jabalpur, including the marble rock site Bhedaghat and Dhuadhar waterfall in the city. These reports suggest that the protestors were shouting slogans and even attempted to cross the barricades put up by the police during the shooting of the film. Although, it is being said that Shah Rukh Khan and the other lead stars were not present at this schedule, the protests continued with some of them even shouting slogans against the Jabalpur Collector for providing the film’s team the permission to shoot in the city.

Talking about the protests, City Superintendent Priyanka Shukla was quoted by PTI, saying, "We showed restraint. The shooting schedule was held with the permission of the Jabalpur collector. The shooting got completed on Friday itself. The protesters handed over a memorandum to the tehsildar seeking a halt to the shooting.”

While Pathaan is expected to release on January 25, 2023, Dunki is expected to be the final release of the year. It marks the first collaboration of Shah Rukh Khan with acclaimed director Rajkumar Hirani and also stars Taapsee Pannu as the leading lady. It is slated to hit the big screens on December 22.

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...
