SCOOP: After Saiyaara, Mohit Suri and Ahaan Panday's next is a twisted love story for Aditya Chopra

-
In 2025, Saiyaara redefined the box office, as the film marked the launch of two superstars - Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda. The film went on to become the biggest launch pad of the modern era, and ever since, there has been curiosity to learn more about Ahaan Panday. The young superstar signed his second feature film with YRF and Ali Abbas Zafar, and the film is presently on the floor. And now we have learnt that Ahaan's next after the Ali Abbas Zafar directorial will be a twisted love story with Saiyaara director Mohit Suri. "Mohit Suri was initially looking to make an older guy and younger girl love story. But when the logistics didn't work out, he decided to redesign the project for his leading hero Ahaan Panday. The script organically flew to perfection, and gave Mohit the wings to come up with a rather twisted love story," a trade source shared with Bollywood Hungama on anonymity. The source promises that this isn't a project designed to capitalise on the p...

‘I want to make movies for my people’: Jane Schoenbrun on making a soon-to-be cult classic

The writer-director’s film I Saw the TV Glow brings together themes of fandom, pop culture obsession and trans identity

For the writer-director Jane Schoenbrun, making their highly anticipated follow-up to the breakout indie horror We’re All Going to the World’s Fair was a starkly different process.

“It was so different that it was almost like working in a different medium,” Schoenbrun said. “I really tried to take advantage of that with this film. I tried to make something that could be like almost painted. So many images in this film were so labored over.”

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...
