Urvashi Rautela, Sonu Sood questioned by ED in online betting app investigation; Yuvraj Singh, Rana Daggubati also under scanner: Reports
Actors Urvashi... Read More
Actors Urvashi Rautela and Sonu Sood were recently summoned and questioned by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) in connection with a widening investigation into the promotion of illegal online betting platforms. The probe focuses on celebrity endorsements of apps that allegedly operated in violation of Indian gambling laws.
According to NDTV Profit, the ED is scrutinising the duo's affiliations with certain online gambling websites. Reports suggest that Urvashi and Sonu were questioned regarding their endorsement contracts and promotional roles tied to betting apps, including surrogate platforms such as “1xbat,” which allegedly redirected users through QR codes and web links to 1xBet—a gambling site banned in India.
An official from the ED, quoted by News18, stated, “These platforms have gained massive visibility by partnering with celebrities and influencers — even in defiance of explicit government bans.” So far, neither Urvashi Rautela nor Sonu Sood’s teams have released official statements on the matter.
The investigation also includes other public figures from the entertainment and sports industries. Cricketers Yuvraj Singh, Harbhajan Singh, and Suresh Raina were also called in for questioning. The ED believes endorsements from such high-profile names played a pivotal role in lending credibility and visibility to the banned platforms, thereby facilitating large-scale user engagement and, in turn, financial fraud.
In March this year, an FIR was lodged in Hyderabad against 25 celebrities for promoting illegal betting platforms. The list includes actors and public figures such as Nidhi Agarwal, Vijay Deverakonda, Rana Daggubati, Prakash Raj, Manchu Lakshmi, and Praneetha.

Welcome To The Jungle shoot schedules gets cancelled amid financial crisis: Report
The multi-starrer... Read More
The multi-starrer comedy film Welcome To the Jungle, the third installment in the popular Welcome franchise, has reportedly hit a rough patch. According to a Pinkvilla report, the big-budget entertainer has been plagued by financial and logistical hurdles, leading to multiple shoot cancellations over the past several months.
“Around two to three schedules of Welcome to the Jungle have been cancelled over the last six months, leaving the actors and their teams confused about the prospects. The actors have been allotting dates for the shoot to producer Firoz Nadiadwala, and the same have been cancelled at the last minute due to logistical and financial issues. These last-minute cancellations have left the actors sitting at home during the aforementioned period,” a source was quoted as saying.
The film boasts a massive ensemble cast including Disha Patani, Jacqueline Fernandez, Suniel Shetty, Arshad Warsi, and Raveena Tandon, among others. However, Bollywood Hungama recently reported that Sanjay Dutt, who was initially expected to be part of the lineup, is no longer associated with the project.
The delays have not only affected the actors’ schedules but also led to significant frustration and financial loss. “The film has been on floors for over a year and a half now. There are also issues of non-payment of dues to the actors and their staff. Some of the originally cast actors have exited the project, while others are still supporting it out of love for the franchise. They all believe that Welcome is a beloved franchise and are willing to adjust their dates to help complete Welcome to the Jungle,” the source further added.
While the Welcome franchise remains a fan-favorite, the behind-the-scenes troubles of its third installment are beginning to cast a shadow over its prospects. “Initially, every actor was excited, but the repeated cancellations have become frustrating. It not only results in wasted time for the actors but also monetary loss, as the same dates could have been allotted to other films or brand commitments. Housefull 5, produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, also had a large ensemble cast, but the shoot planning was seamless. On the contrary, the scheduling for Welcome to the Jungle, produced by Firoz Nadiadwala, has been inconsistent,” the insider revealed.
Directed by Ahmed Khan, Welcome To the Jungle was announced with much fanfare and is being positioned as a high-octane action-comedy adventure. However, with production delays and cast changes now grabbing headlines, it remains to be seen when (or if) the film will wrap up and hit theatres.

According to the IGR property registration documents reviewed by Square Yards, the value of latest purchased apartment in June 2025 stands at Rs. 10 crore. It has a carpet area of 1,950 sq. ft. (~181 sq. m.) and a built-up area of 217.47 sq. m. (~2,341 sq. ft.), which is the same as the apartment acquired in May. The deal also includes two car parking spaces. The transaction attracted a stamp duty payment of Rs. 60 lakh and registration charges of Rs. 30,000.
According to the IGR property registration documents reviewed by Square Yards, the property purchased in May 2025, also for Rs. 10 crore, features a similar carpet area of 1,950 sq. ft. (~181 sq. m.) and a built-up area of 217.47 sq.m. (~2,341 sq.ft.). It included a total of four car parking spaces. The transaction incurred a stamp duty payment of Rs. 60 lakh and registration charges of Rs. 30,000.
Andheri West is well located between Mumbai’s main business and entertainment areas, with good connectivity via the Western Express Highway, Link Road, SV Road, and the Versova-Andheri-Ghatkopar Metro line. Over time, it has grown into a busy commercial and residential area, with modern offices, co-working spaces, shops, entertainment spots, and upscale housing. Its lively environment, strong infrastructure, and closeness to key business hubs make it a popular choice for businesses, celebrities, and working professionals.
Jaideep Ahlawat is an Indian actor who works in Hindi films and web series. He gained recognition for his roles in the films Raees (2017) and Raazi (2018).

Audit reveals Rs. 91 cr. damage from Sikandar piracy leak - NGEPL to file Bollywood’s BIGGEST piracy insurance claim
In a significant turn... Read More
In a significant turn of events that underscores the growing menace of digital piracy, Sajid Nadiadwala’s Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. (NGEPL) is reportedly in the process of filing a massive insurance claim of Rs. 91 crores for piracy-related losses incurred by their recent release, Sikandar, starring Salman Khan.
According to reliable sources who spoke anonymously to Bollywood Hungama, the production house has initiated internal discussions around invoking its digital piracy insurance cover, following a detailed loss assessment. “An audit was commissioned to assess the extent of the leak and the resulting impact on revenue. Ernst & Young (EnY) submitted a comprehensive report that pegged the loss at approximately Rs. 91 crore,” a source close to the matter revealed to Bollywood Hungama.
Industry insiders suggest that the Rs. 91 crore figure was derived using a combination of comparative modeling and market benchmarking. The audit likely analyzed pre-release box office projections, theatre-wise occupancy trends, and region-wise earnings dips following the leak. Digital footprint tracing tools were also reportedly used to track the volume of illegal downloads and streams across platforms. These figures were then converted into estimated box office revenue loss using established conversion ratios. “Such audits often include a blend of data from ticketing platforms, distributor reports, and forensic tracing of piracy dissemination. The Rs. 91 crore figure wasn’t arbitrary - it is rooted in a loss of potential theatrical and digital revenue,” the source shared with Bollywood Hungama.
The audit allegedly found that pirated copies of Sikandar were being circulated on encrypted messaging platforms and unauthorized streaming sites mere hours after its theatrical release, and in some cases, even before. “This wasn’t a minor leak. The scale of circulation was unprecedented, and it had a measurable impact on the box office,” the source added.
The leak was traced to infamous piracy platforms such as Tamilrockers, Movierulz, Filmyzilla, and several Telegram groups, all of which made the full movie available for illegal download and streaming even before the film’s official release. The pirated version, believed to have originated post-censorship, included deleted and raw scenes not present in the final theatrical cut.
A source revealed to Bollywood Hungama about the pirated version, “The background score in many places was raw. There were several scenes that did not exist in the theatrical version - like one where medical students meet Sikandar in Dharavi, a longer flashback of Kamaruddin collapsing due to lung disease, and a sequence involving Sikandar learning about Rashmika’s character’s aspirations to become a lawyer.”
The source added, “There was also a pre-interval scene where Sikandar’s team informs him about multiple issues - Kamaruddin’s deteriorating health, Vaidehi (Kajal Aggarwal) leaving her home, and Nisha (Anjini Dhawan) being unwell - giving him stronger reason to stay in Mumbai. There’s even a deleted suicide attempt by Vaidehi and a cab sequence involving vadams that was omitted from the final cut.”
A trade source noted a peculiar discrepancy in the pirated print: “It’s not Iulia Vantur singing Lag Ja Gale - the original 1964 version is used. Also, the pirated version did not include Salman Khan singing Ajeeb Dastaan, which was later added to the final cut. These variations suggest that the leak likely happened post-CBFC clearance, indicating an insider job.”
Sikandar, a high-octane action entertainer, opened to much anticipation and collected Rs. 27.5 crores on Day 1. Despite an impressive opening weekend, the film saw sharp drops in weekdays, ultimately ending its theatrical run at Rs. 103.45 crores – a figure that many trade insiders believe fell short of its potential.
Another source familiar with the situation cautioned, “No formal claim has been filed yet. The discussions are ongoing, but it's premature to say that NGEPL has officially moved to claim Rs. 91 crores. At this stage, these are internal assessments, not legal filings.”
If NGEPL does proceed, this could become one of the most substantial piracy-related insurance claims in Indian film history – bringing into spotlight the increasing role of risk management tools like cyber insurance in the business of moviemaking. “Studios are finally treating piracy as a financial risk, not just a legal or ethical concern,” said a digital distribution expert, who also spoke on condition of anonymity.
Sajid Nadiadwala and NGEPL have not issued any official statement yet regarding the insurance claim or the piracy audit. We tried to get in touch with the production house, however they chose not to respond.

Aamir Khan responds to patriotism criticism: "My film Sarfarosh was the first one ever in history, in which we have taken Pakistan and ISI's names without hesitation"
Aamir Khan faced... Read More
Aamir Khan faced criticism for commenting on the Pahalgam terror attack nearly a week after it occurred, just 12 hours before the trailer launch of Sitaare Zameen Par. Addressing the backlash on Aap Ki Adalat, he defended his patriotism and noted that his 1999 film Sarfarosh was the first in Indian cinema to directly mention Pakistan and the ISI’s names without using any substitutes.
Aamir Khan’s silence following the Pahalgam terror attack drew public criticism, with many questioning his patriotism. Addressing the backlash in an interview with Rajat Sharma on Aap Ki Adalat, the actor defended himself by recalling his 1999 film Sarfarosh, highlighting that it made history as the first Indian film to openly name Pakistan and the ISI without resorting to substitutes.
While speaking on Rajat Sharma’s show, Aamir Khan recalled how Sarfarosh made history by openly naming Pakistan and the ISI, something rarely done in Indian cinema. “If you pick India’s film history, we have never been allowed to take their name, we had to use the term ‘padosi mulk (neighbouring country)’. My film Sarfarosh was the first one ever in history, in which we have taken Pakistan and ISI’s names without hesitation. John [Mathew Matthan, Director] said that the Censor Board won’t pass this. I said, ‘Why won’t they? We will explain it to them’. When Advaniji can call their name in the Parliament publicly that they are doing wrong to us and spreading terrorism, then why can’t we?” he stated.
He further added that Sarfarosh set a precedent for future films to name Pakistan directly. “We got permission to use the names on that basis. So many films released after that were using Pakistan’s name. People say that I don’t say anything against them, but sabse bada naam toh unka maine hi liya hai, aur kisi ne nahi. After Sarfarosh, I got many negative comments from Pakistan for attacking them in the film,” he said.
???? MASSIVE REVELATION by Aamir Khan! Before 1998, Censor Board banned naming Pakistan as a terror sponsor in films — filmmakers were forced to say "Padosi Mulk"! ????

In the same interview, Aamir Khan clarified that the release of the Sitaare Zameen Par trailer shortly after his statement was purely coincidental. “The trailer was supposed to release much earlier. I cancelled it because of the attack on our nation. I cancelled the premiere of Andaz Apna Apna that day,” explained Aamir. His 1994 cult classic directed by Rajkumar Santoshi was re-released in theatres on April 25.
Aamir Khan also spoke in defense of Islam, emphasizing that the religion does not promote violence. “No religion asks you to kill people. I don’t consider these terrorists Muslims because it’s written in Islam that you can’t kill any innocent human, can’t strike a woman or a child. They’re going against the religion by doing what they are doing,” he said.
Aamir Khan will next be seen in Sitaare Zameen Par, a sports comedy-drama and spiritual sequel to his 2007 hit Taare Zameen Par. Directed by Shubh Mangal Saavdhan’s RS Prasanna, the film stars Genelia D’Souza alongside ten debutant actors. A remake of the Spanish film Campeones, it follows a basketball coach tasked with training a team of differently abled children. The film releases on June 20.

SS Rajamouli builds grand Varanasi set in Hyderabad for SSMB29; Mahesh Babu and Priyanka Chopra Jonas to resume shoot in Kenya: Reports
Filmmaker SS... Read More
Filmmaker SS Rajamouli is currently busy with his upcoming project SSMB29, starring Mahesh Babu, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, and Prithviraj Sukumaran. The film is shaping up to be a visually ambitious cinematic experience. According to a report by Hindustan Times, the team has completed two major filming schedules and is now working on a critical segment set in Varanasi. Instead of shooting on location, Rajamouli has opted to recreate the holy city at Hyderabad’s Ramoji Film City. The reason: the logistical challenges of filming in Varanasi, one of India’s most densely populated and spiritually active cities.
The massive set is estimated to have cost nearly Rs 50 crores. Significant portions of the film, including action scenes featuring Mahesh Babu, will be shot here. Rajamouli's hallmark use of green screen technology and VFX will once again be central to his vision. Some of the most reputed Hollywood VFX studios have been brought on board to deliver world-class visuals, with a large part of the film's budget reportedly allocated to the graphics department.
In addition to Hyderabad, schedules in Odisha have also been completed. As per a report by Filmfare, the production is now gearing up for its first international schedule in Kenya, which was initially planned for March but had to be pushed. The Kenya schedule, slated for July, will feature Mahesh Babu and Priyanka Chopra Jonas in sequences set against dense wilderness and a natural backdrop.
The film is also notable for marking Priyanka Chopra Jonas’ return to Indian cinema after a six-year hiatus. She was last seen in The Sky Is Pink (2019), and her comeback in a Rajamouli film is already generating strong interest among fans and industry insiders alike.

Bollywood Hungama was... Read More
Bollywood Hungama was the first one to report on Saturday June 14 that the censor process of Aamir Khan’s Sitaare Zameen Par was stalled because the CBFC (Central Board of Film Certification) asked for a couple of cuts. Aamir and the film’s director RS Prasanna didn’t agree with the same.
But it is now learnt that the film has now been cleared by the CBFC, as per an update provided by the makers. It is not mentioned how both the parties reached a consensus though. But the good news for Aamir’s fans is that the film is indeed releasing in theatres on its scheduled date of June 20.
Apart from Aamir and Genelia Deshmukh, Sitaare Zameen Par also stars 10 newcomers: Aroush Datta, Gopi Krishna Varma, Samvit Desai, Vedant Sharma, Ayush Bhansali, Ashish Pendse, Rishi Shahani, Rishabh Jain, Naman Mishra, and Simran Mangeshkar.
Made under the banner of Aamir Khan Productions, Sitaare Zameen Par stars Aamir Khan and Genelia Deshmukh in lead roles. The lyrics are penned by Amitabh Bhattacharya and music is composed by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy. The screenplay is written by Divy Nidhi Sharma. The film is produced by Aamir Khan and Aparna Purohit, with B. Shrinivas Rao and Ravi Bhagchandka as producers. Directed by R. S. Prasanna, the film will be released in theatres only on June 20, 2025.

Manasvi Mamgai's Hollywood production Captivated starring Al Pacino commences with blessings of Pope Leo XIV
In a rare and... Read More
In a rare and historic meeting at Vatican City, Hollywood legend Al Pacino and producer Manasvi Mamgai were officially received by His Holiness Pope Leo XIV, marking a spiritual and symbolic beginning for the upcoming film Captivated. The project, backed by 32RED Entertainment, has commenced filming in Rome.
This meeting holds several firsts — Al Pacino, known globally for The Godfather and other iconic roles, became the first film star to be formally received by the newly appointed Pope Leo XIV. It also marked the first time Pacino met with a Pope. For Manasvi Mamgai, co-founder of 32RED Entertainment, the moment was equally significant as one of the few Indian-origin producers to receive such an audience.
Mamgai reflected on the moment, saying, “Meeting His Holiness, the Pope, was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. As an Indian-origin producer, standing alongside Al Pacino in such an extraordinary moment felt surreal and deeply meaningful. No better way to start a movie than to receive blessings from His Holiness himself.”
Directed by Dito Montiel (Riff Raff), Captivated is a high-stakes thriller inspired by true events. The film centers on Saro, a Calabrian mafia boss who kidnaps the grandson of billionaire Jean Paul Getty. As the situation intensifies, Saro forms an unexpected emotional bond with the boy’s mother, Abigail Harris — a connection that puts his entire empire at risk.
Captivated is produced by 32RED Entertainment, a Los Angeles and Mumbai-based studio founded in 2021 by Manasvi Mamgai and Michael Mammoliti. The company focuses on bold, globally resonant storytelling, and Captivated marks one of its most ambitious productions to date. Filming is underway and the release is slated for 2025.
With a powerful narrative, a legendary lead, and the Pope’s blessing, Captivated promises a compelling cinematic journey grounded in both emotion and suspense.

Aamir Khan has extensively promoted the film and his activities have caught the attention big time. Now, the superstar is gearing up for the premiere of his labour of love. Bollywood Hungama has got interesting information on the same.
A source told Bollywood Hungama, "The premiere will be held in a multiplex of PVR Inox. Aamir Khan will be present along with Genelia Deshmukh and the rest of the star cast."
The source continued, "If all goes well, the other two Khans, Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan, will be also attending to show support to Aamir. Other prominent stars from the industry will also make their presence felt. Thus, this will be one of the biggest film events of the year."
Sitaare Zameen Par is directed by R S Prasanna. The film made lot of news as it might release on YouTube post theatrical release instead of a streaming platform. While interacting with journalists recently, Aamir said, "In today’s times, not a single producer would begin a film unless he sells the OTT rights. Correct me if I am wrong. Jab tak OTT ka sale hota nahin, woh film greenlit nahin hoti. I am the only producer who has declined to sell OTT rights. I am releasing the film only in cinemas as I want to make the theatrical sector strong."
