He said, “I drive my vehicle at night. It was around 2-3 am when I saw a woman trying to hire an auto but nobody stopped. I could also hear calls for a rickshaw from inside the gate. After I took a U-turn and stopped my vehicle at the gate, a man who was covered in blood came out. 2-4 people also accompanied him.” He added, “They put him in the auto...They decided to go to Lilavati.

Mukesh Ambani eyes Karan Johar's Dharma Productions: Will Reliance secure a stake in Bollywood's top Studio?

-

Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions has been in the news for various reasons of late. Last week, there was a surprise among trade, industry members and also moviegoers when it was reported that Saregama India, owned by the RP Sanjiv Goenka Group, was in talks to acquire a majority stake in film producer Karan Johar’s company. The report, however, categorically mentioned that the deal had not reached its final stage. Meanwhile, today, October 14, the Economic Times has reported that KJo is in talks with another industry giant.

As per the article, Reliance Industries Limited (RIL) is in talks to acquire a stake in Dharma Productions. However, the article stated that the size of the stake on the table is not clear. It also quoted a source who said that Karan Johar has been looking to sell a chunk of a stake in Dharma for some time. However, it hasn’t been an easy ride as the past deals have fallen through due to disagreements over valuation.

The Economic Times article also revealed that Dharma Productions is owned 90.7% by Karan Johar and 9.24% by his mother, Hiroo Johar.

If the Dharma Productions-Reliance Industries Limited deal materializes, it’ll strengthen the portfolio of the latter in the entertainment sector big time. At present, RIL has backed Jio Studios, Viacom18 Studios and Colosceum Media. Moreover, Mukesh Ambani-owned RIL also has a 25% minority stake in Ektaa R Kapoor’s Balaji Telefilms.

In the past, Bollywood Hungama had also exclusively reported that Karan Johar also had talks with Gautam Adani of Adani to sell a 30% stake in Dharma Productions.

Coming back to Dharma Productions, the production house had a theatrical release a few days ago, Jigra, starring Alia Bhatt and Vedang Raina. Karan also owns Dharmatic Entertainment, which churns out content for OTT platforms. Last month, they released Ananya Panday-starrer Call Me Bae on Amazon Prime Video. On October 18, they’ll drop the third season of Fabulous Lives Of Bollywood Wives on Netflix. Interestingly, the new season is called Fabulous Lives vs Bollywood Wives.

‘I lied to get the part’: Melvyn Hayes on his ‘angry young man’ beginnings – and It Ain’t Half Hot Mum

-
He was tipped to be the next Richard Burton – but ended up as crossdressing Gunner Gloria in the now controversial sitcom. As his breakthrough classic returns to the screen, Hayes looks back One day in 1957, Melvyn Hayes was on the set of a film called Woman in a Dressing Gown when a man sat down next to him. “I was getting paid £5 a day and I’d been on location for three days,” the actor recalls. “All I had to do was walk up to a house and put a newspaper through a letterbox. That was my part. Finished. I said to this bloke, ‘I can’t believe the waste of money on this film. Take me. You could have got a newspaper boy on £1 a day to do what I’m doing.’ Then I said, ‘What do you do then, you lazy bugger?’ And he said, ‘I’m the producer.’” Hayes, now 89, giggles at the memory of the cheek of himself at 23. Back then, £5 a day was a decent whack. His first job in showbiz, in the early 1950s, was as assistant to The Great Masoni, a magician who tasked Hayes with “disappearing twice daily...

The Exorcism review – Russell Crowe v the Devil in cursed horror about a cursed horror

-
The actor plays an actor struggling with a demonically bad film shoot in a well-made yet increasingly messy chiller Like many other dethroned A-listers of his generation, Oscar winner Russell Crowe has found himself a steady career hustling far further down the food chain, headlining B-movies he once would have balked at. The last few years have seen the famed actor crop up in gonzo road rage thriller Unhinged , shepherd the other Hemsworths in war drama Land of Bad , lead the barely released crime thriller Sleeping Dogs earlier this year and become the pope’s exorcist in The Pope’s Exorcist . The latter became something of a surprise hit, first theatrically and then on Netflix, albeit in a rather jokey way, the film most easily remembered for the many memes of Crowe on a scooter. Its success was such that it not only guaranteed a sequel (The Pope’s Exorcist 2 is coming), but it also led to another of his exorcism movies getting saved from streaming hell and being delivered to th...
