EXCLUSIVE: Junaid Khan-Sai Pallavi starrer Ek Din to release on May 1; to clash with Riteish Deshmukh's Raja Shivaji

-
More than a week ago, we reported that Mere Raho, starring Junaid Khan and Sai Pallavi, would not be released on April 24 as planned earlier. Bollywood Hungama now brings you more information about the film and its release. A source told Bollywood Hungama, “Earlier, the film was titled Ek Din, after which the makers decided to rename it as Mere Raho. However, now, they have gone back to the title of Ek Din.” The source further said, “The film will release on May 1, 2026. A teaser, which is around 1.11 minutes long, was recently passed by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). It has been attached with the prints of this week’s release, Happy Patel: Khatarnak Jasoos. This comic caper, like Ek Din, is also produced by Aamir Khan Productions.” Ek Din will now clash with Riteish Deshmukh’s ambitious period drama, Raja Shivaji. It features the talented actor in the lead role and he’s also joined by Genelia Deshmukh, Sanjay Dutt, Abhishek Bachchan, Mahesh Manjrekar, Sachin Khedek...

And Their Children After Them review – racism and revenge festers in smalltown France

Venice film festival
Nineties-set drama adapted from the bestselling novel zeroes in on tensions in a post-industrial community, sparked by a feud over a motorbike

Class and racial tensions come to the boil in this potent tale of disaffected youth in smalltown France. Co-directed by Ludovic and Zoran Boukherma from Nicolas Mathieu’s bestselling novel, this is a state-of-the-nation drama dressed up as a coming-of-age tale (or possibly vice-versa); it is at once intimate and expansive in the way in which it connects the low-rise estates to the posh homes on the hill. It also brings a dose of dirty social-realism to this year’s Venice film festival.

The time-frame is the 90s, although its socio-economic tensions still apply, just as the (fictional) burg of Heillange is broadly representative of a thousand other towns in France and elsewhere; living in the shadow of its shuttered steelworks and inhabited by too many people with too little to do. Heillange, we are told, is “a town of hard times”, where the big local news is the opening of an indoor ski slope. The white ex-steelworkers live in humdrum terraced houses and the immigrant ex-steelworkers live in the humdrum block of flats down the road. Neither camp evidently has much to do with the other until a minor crisis triggers a chain reaction.

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...
