Ahaan Panday to shoot energetic dance number in Manchester for Ali Abbas Zafar film? Here’s what we know! Ahaan Panday is reportedly set to showcase his dancing skills for the first time on the big screen in his upcoming untitled film with director Ali Abbas Zafar.

Salaam-e-Ishq 2 in the works, Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy to reunite: Report Nearly two decades after the release of Salaam-e-Ishq, filmmaker Nikkhil Advani is set to revisit the romantic anthology with a sequel. According to an exclusive report by Variety India, the director is currently developing Salaam-e-Ishq 2, expanding the original film into a larger franchise centred around love, relationships, and destiny. The upcoming sequel is expected to revolve around three couples whose lives intersect through fate and emotional circumstances.

SHOCKING: India is the ONLY country in the world to award an ‘A’ rating to The Devil Wears Prada 2 Many viewers who ventured to watch The Devil Wears Prada 2 on Friday, May 1, and Saturday, May 2, expected an abundance of skin show, intimacy or violence. This is because the film has been certified ‘A’. However, all such fears were put to rest once patrons exited the theatre; after all, there’s nothing even remotely adult in the film, be it in terms of dialogues, scenes or even theme. Almost everyone is unanimous that The Devil Wears Prada 2 is a family-friendly flick and that the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) should have awarded it a U/A, if not a ‘U’, rating. Bollywood Hungama went through the ratings awarded by censor boards across various countries and found that India is the only country where The Devil Wears Prada 2 is restricted to audiences aged 18 and above. In Switzerland, the film is permitted for anyone above the age of 6. Finland, Denmark and Spain permit anyone over 7 to catch the comedy drama. In Ireland, one has to be above 8, while in Belgium and the Netherlands, one has to be 9 to see the film. Turkey has awarded 10A rating to The Devil Wears Prada 2. In all these countries, minors are not restricted from watching the film; they can enter the theatre if accompanied by adults.

EXCLUSIVE: Vikram Bhatt reveals why Haunted - Ghosts Of The Past was renamed as Haunted - Echoes Of The Past: "You can't make a ghost film without believing in superstition" Vikram Bhatt struck gold with Haunted 3D (2011). It’s a film that kick-started the 3D trend in Bollywood and became a sleeper hit at the box office. Hence, there are high expectations for the next film in this franchise, which is set to release on June 12. Interestingly, the film was earlier titled Haunted – Ghosts Of The Past. As per the motion poster that dropped yesterday to announce the release date, the film was renamed to Haunted – Echoes Of The Past. Bollywood Hungama exclusively spoke to director Vikram Bhatt about this aspect. This was probably the director’s first interaction with the media after he faced a major personal turmoil in his life. Vikram Bhatt told Bollywood Hungama, “The Haunted films are not just about ghosts. At its heart, it’s a poignant love story. Meanwhile, the film was getting delayed for some reason or another and also, I had to face incarceration. A very close friend of mine said that this is probably happening due to the word ‘Ghost’ in the title. He told me, ‘Title mein se Ghost ko hata do’. I told him, ‘Theek hai. Hata dete hai (smiles)’. That’s how we came up with Echoes Of The Past. ”He further remarked, “I never believed in such things until now. Also, you can’t make a ghost film without believing in superstition (laughs). ”The use of AI in the motion po... #Bollywood_Hungama #film #Vikram_Bhatt #Bhatt #Haunted #Past #ghost_film #struck_gold #Bhatt_reveals #Bhatt_struck

Maatrubhumi’s biggest challenge is the fog of repositioning that could alter its box office variables There are films that arrive with a roar. And then there are films that arrive with a question mark. Salman Khan’s Maatrubhumi increasingly feels like the second kind. That is what makes this film so fascinating from a trade point of view. Not because the subject is weak. Not because the star is not big enough. Not because patriotism has stopped working. But because a film that was once powered by absolute clarity now seems trapped in a fog of repositioning. When it was conceived as Battle Of Galwan, the idea sold itself. It had immediacy. It had a recall. It had a charged emotional memory attached to it. It had the kind of headline value that mainstream Hindi cinema rarely gets without spending crores on awareness. It was later rechristened Maatrubhumi, and the newer version was significantly reworked, with reportedly nearly 40% reshot, additional romantic and backstory elements added, and China no longer mentioned. And that changes the game completely. That is the sword hanging over Maatrubhumi. At birth, this was a smart move. A very smart move. A film inspired by Galwan in the immediate shadow of the 2020 clash was not just topical; it was explosive in the right way. It came with a built-in theatrical promise: sacrifice, valour, anger, national pride and a clearly understood adversarial context. You did not need to over-explain the pitch.
