"It is being considered," Nikkhil Advani confirms Bellbottom’s direct-to-OTT

The biggies that were patiently awaiting their chance in movie theatres have one by one by one decided to shift loyalties to the digital platform. The latest on that front is director Ranjit Tiwari's period thriller Bellbottom featuring Akshay Kumar in the lead. The producers Nikkil Advani and Pooja Entertainment had categorically denied any plans to opt for the digital option. And the film was poised for a theatrical release. But now seeing the way the Covid crisis is heading, chances of  Bellbottom  keeping its 28 May release date in movie theatres seems impossible. The film is now being sold to Disney+ Hotstar for an early digital premiere. Confirming this development, producer Nikkil Advani says, “I believe it is being considered. But the final monetizing lies with Pooja Entertainment.” Interestingly this is Disney-Hotstar’s second premium acquisition featuring Akshay Kumar. Laxmii which was acquired at an astronomical amount had a disastrous premiere on Disney+ Hotstar on

Same-sex marriage called off in Ekta Kapoor’s series His Storry

As per plans, the gay couple in the new series  His Storyy  played by Satyadeep Mishra and Mrinal Dutt were supposed to get married at the end of Season 1 which started streaming this week. The marriage was called off. And here is why: the producers Alt-Balaji and DING got cold feet about showing a same-sex marriage. One of the actors tells me, “Considering the way things are at the moment in our country I am relieved that marriage didn’t actually happen. The plan was to end season 1 with a Big Fat wedding showing Kunal (Satydeep Mishra) and Preet (Mrinal Dutt) tying the knot. But I think the producers chickened out, at least for this season.” Apparently the marriage may happen in Season 2, provided the atmosphere of intolerance that prevails in the country, dims down. “Otherwise Season 2 may not happen at all,” informs the actor. His Storyy  is the coming-out story of Kunal (Satyadeep Mishra) happily married to Sakshi (Priyamani) for twenty years when Kunal comes out gay with a fo

Dharmendra hasn’t met Hema Malini for more than a year

Covid has played havoc with human contact even between individuals who are so close to one another as to be considered inseparable. Legendary real-life couple Hema Malini and Dharmendra have stayed apart for more than a year. As soon as Covid raised its ugly head Dharamji locked himself away in his farmhouse outside Mumbai far away from the madding crowd. Says Hemaji, “It is best for his safety. Right now we would rather think about his health than about spending time together. We are going through the worst crisis that mankind has faced in a hundred years. If we must save civilization we must be strong, even if it means making big sacrifices.” Also Read:  “I was all set to do Prakash Mehra’s Zanjeer when I had to opt out for personal reasons” – Dharmendra from Latest Bollywood News | Hindi Movie News | Hindi Cinema News | Indian Movies | Films - Bollywood Hungama https://ift.tt/3t5Y8aC

Some 10 days back, the industry, trade and fans got a jolt as the makers of Radhe - Your Most Wanted Bhai revealed that their film would be releasing in cinemas as well as on ZeePlex. Soon, the trailer was out and then the producers wasted no time in releasing their first song, ‘Seeti Maar’ , on April 26.

Advance booking for Salman Khan starrer Radhe – Your Most Wanted Bhai begins in the UAE

Salman Khan had given his word to the theatre owners of India that his upcoming film Radhe – Your Most Wanted Bhai will be a theatrical release.

Sohail Khan took to his social media to announce that Radhe – Your Most Wanted Bhai’s advance bookings have begun in the UAE.

SCOOP: Akshay Kumar’s Bellbottom to premiere on Disney+ Hotstar; sold for a whopping amount?

Last year, when the Coronavirus pandemic began to spread its wings across the country, a large number of Bollywood films decided to skip theatrical release. With theatres being asked to shut, many producers didn’t find it feasible to keep holding the film’s release. Hence, they decided to not add to the rising costs and took refuge on OTT. But as time passed, the cases began to reduce and cinemas also began to open and even record good occupancy. As a result, a lot of filmmakers got the confidence to opt for a theatrical release first. Sadly, a handful of films came in cinemas and then once again, the cases began to increase. Theatres once again downed shutters. And once again, the producers are getting tempted to get into the OTT bandwagon. A week ago, the producers of Radhe - Your Most Wanted Bhai surprised one and all as they decided to release the Salman Khan-starrer on Eid in cinemas as well as on a pay-per-view platform, ZeePlex. And now, the trade is abuzz that the upcoming b

During the That’s After Life podcast, she revealed, “It’s the perfect thing to do during a pandemic — get pregnant, have a baby. I feel like I’m probably being a bit of a cliché, she’ll probably be sitting in a bar in 30 years’ time one day going, ‘Yeah, I’m a COVID baby.’” “She’s just three months and she’s an absolute joy, I’m never going to complain about shooting hours ever again because sleep deprivation is something else,” she said during the interview. “People say, ‘Your whole perspective on life will change, and your whole set of value system’ and you sort of roll your eyes and go ‘Yeah, yeah’ — and then you have one and you go, ‘Oh. Wow!’” She further added, “I’m in love. I’m absolutely in love, she’s a joy.

Kartik Aaryan opts out of Vasan Bala's Phantom

Few weeks ago, Kartik Aaryan had put out a post almost announcing his next project. His post made fans excited as he said he was prepping for something super big. The project happened to be Vasan Bala's next superhero venture. The sci-fi venture titled Phantom was to be based on the comic superhero character of the same name. While Kartik had verbally agreed to be part of the big budget film, now we hear that he's walked out of that project completely. A source informed Bollywood Hungama , "There were a few things that Kartik didn't agree with. Vasan Bala has his own style of filmmaking and his films are quirky but not commercial. Kartik and he had disagreement in the way they were planning to mount the sci-fi biggie. Kartik was of the opinion that a superhero film, this being his first, had to be made on a huge budget and presented in a more commercial actioner space. But Vasan's idea was to underline it with dark humour and that made it a more niche film."

Lyca Productions takes Robot director Shankar to court

Shankar the maverick filmmaker from the South known for his big-screen fantasies has lately found himself in a bit of a legal jam. First there was the producer of Shankar’s 2005 Telugu blockbuster  Anniyan . Producer Aascar V Ravichandran claimed—and rightly so—that the story and screenplay rights of Anniyan  belonged to him and therefore Shankar was not within his rights to do the remake. Now comes an even bigger blow to Shankar’s epic plans with his long-delayed  Indian 2 finding itself in a legal imbroglio. The producers Lyca Productions have now gone to court to forbid Shankar from directing any other film until he completes  Indian 2 . But will  Indian 2  ever get completed? The film’s leading man Kamal Haasan has been busy with his political aspirations which are prioritized far above his film career at the moment. An informed source reveal, “ Indian 2  has been troubled from the word go. It has been facing one glitch after another. Now the producers going to the court askin
