Vijay Deverakonda is not replacing Vikrant Massey in Don 3

-
Vikrant Massey, who has just had a release in the form of Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan, is now preparing for the biggest challenge of his career: he will play the main antagonist opposite Ranveer Singh in Farhan Akhtar’s Don 3. Massey’s role, revealed a knowledgeable source, is that of a suave smooth-talking scamster. He will apparently change his look for the character, put on weight and train in special martial arts for his climactic combat with Ranveer Singh. But there have been recent reports about Massey being replaced by Vijay Deverakonda in the film. There is, however, no truth to these claims. While Farhan Akhtar is not yet ready to talk about Don 3, a source close to him revealed, “It’s been Ranveer and Vikrant from the start. Baseless rumours of Deverakonda replacing Massey are not going to tamper with the cast in any way.” Also Read: Farhan Akhtar to start shooting Don 3 with Ranveer Singh from January 2026 from Latest Bollywood News | Hindi Movie News |...

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind at 20: a love story that’s impossible to forget

-

Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet forget they used to be in love in a wonderfully inventive and moving reminder of why romantic pain is an important thing to remember

The greatest screen romances are usually about failure, not happily ever afters. Love sacrificed. Love unrequited. Love forbidden by social mores or bad timing or the tectonic forces of history. Think Casablanca. Brief Encounter. In the Mood for Love. The Age of Innocence. Moonlight. Considered another way, though, they’re powerful because they end so pristinely, before the banal hassles and petty fissures of everyday life make a mess of things. Give a relationship enough time and Before Sunrise turns into Before Midnight.

One of the reasons why Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, now 20 years old, ranks among the best love stories of the 21st century is that it makes the unique argument that failure is an essential, precious part of romantic experience. It’s only human to want that pain to go away, but the film suggests that literally making it so would be a wish on a monkey’s paw, offering some short-term relief, perhaps, but with unanticipated long-term consequences. People usually have many more failed relationships before one that succeeds, after all, and the accumulation of experience and memory not only means something, but that meaning isn’t static. Bitter moments can turn bittersweet.

-
A lot of Bollywood films have re-released off late but when it comes to Hollywood, a handful of classics have had a re-run in cinemas.

The Fans Were Silent As 64-Year-Old Sharon Stone Appeared Topless

-
The well-known Hollywood actress Sharon Stone looks fantastic at 64. She is youthful, lovely, and fit, and age has no effect on her. When Stone dresses in a way that highlights all of her physical assets, she frequently emerges as the red carpet's major attraction. The celebrity disregards her age and serves as living proof that women of all ages, including those over 60, can still be stunning and attractive. The actress frequently posts pictures of herself in bathing suits, but the day before, she went topless. Sharon posed while wearing a green bikini with a leopard print, concealing her breasts with a towel. The celebrity enjoyed the sunshine in her home's courtyard, as seen by the smile on her face. On a wonderful day, gratefully imperfect, Sharon captioned the picture. Soon after the picture was released, fans began to compliment it because it caught their attention. "You appear to be naturally lovely. "Beautiful and extremely attractive," "Beautiful an...

The Portable Door review – Harry Potter-ish YA fantasy carried by hardworking cast

-
Jeffrey Walker’s adaptation of the young-adult fantasy novel retains its edge thanks to its performances, but gets stuck on the whole door thing Adapted from Tom Holt’s 2003 young-adult fantasy novel, this is a passable attempt at kickstarting a new Harry Potter-style franchise set in a fusty-quirky institution, dosed up with extra Gilliamesque grotesquery. Co-produced by the Jim Henson Company, the production design is poky and intense, and the cast – with Christoph Waltz and Sam Neill larking it up – give it their all. But amid all this clutter, it sometimes has trouble moving its story forward. The Portable Door has a nice conceit: the venerable London corporation of JW Wells & Co is responsible for engineering all the daily incidents of coincidence and serendipity that happen in urban life. Not that wet-behind-the-ears intern Paul Carpenter (Patrick Gibson), desperate for any gig, knows the company’s raison d’etre when he signs up. He appears to have no discernible talents wh...
