The movie will be produced under Siddharth Anand's Marflix Pictures and Mahaveer Jain Films, along with Peacecraft Pictures. White is said to chronicle significant milestones from the spiritual leader’s life. From his teachings on peace and global harmony to his efforts in humanitarian work and conflict resolution, the film aims to present a nuanced and inspiring narrative.

SCOOP: Shah Rukh Khan injured on the sets of King; advised to take a one-month break from work
Shah Rukh Khan is one... Read More
Shah Rukh Khan is one of the most hardworking actors in Indian Cinema, who has invested over 30 years of his life in entertaining the audience. With young blood finding him an inspiration icon, the superstar continues to work hard every day. At the age of 60, Shah Rukh Khan was shooting for some intense action sequences at the Golden Tobacco studio in Mumbai, where he met with an accident leading to an injury.
“While exact details of the injury have been kept under wraps, Shah Rukh, along with his team, has travelled to the US for urgent medical attention. It’s nothing serious, but more of a muscular injury, as Shah Rukh over the years has injured multiple muscles of his body while performing stunts,” a source told Bollywood Hungama.
The source informed that post the surgery, SRK is advised to be advised to take a one-month break from work. “The next schedule of King will now begin in September/October as SRK has been advised to take time off for recovery. On completely recovering from the injury, he will hit sets again with full force,” the source told us.
We hear that the bookings to shoot for different parts of King from July to August in Film City, Golden Tobbaco & YRF have been cancelled until further notice. King is slated to be shot in India and Europe. More details on the shoot schedule are awaited

Khushi Kapoor breaks silence on cosmetic procedures; says, “If we don’t do something about our looks then…”
Khushi Kapoor,... Read More
Khushi Kapoor, daughter of the late Sridevi and sister to actress Janhvi Kapoor, recently spoke candidly about her cosmetic enhancements, crediting her honesty with breaking stigma in the glamour industry.
In an interview with ETimes, Khushi addressed swirling rumours by stating plainly, “Yes, I have changed my looks. But everyone thinks I have done some 10–20 things on myself. It is obviously not the case. I don’t think going under the knife for your looks is such a big deal.”
The actor, who made her debut with The Archies, emphasised the importance of transparency, saying, “For me, it is not okay to be dishonest with people around me about my looks. There are a lot of impressionable youngsters who follow us on the internet.”
Khushi went on to point out the impossible expectations women often face, noting, “Plus, if we don't do something about our looks, then it is a problem and people will judge you for your looks, and if we do something for ourselves, feeding your insecurities, then also people have a problem.” She argued that no path wins favour: “People will say that why did she change herself and did not stick to her original looks? So, you are not going to win either way. I am going to live my life the way I want to.”
Acknowledging that image-consciousness is part of the profession, Khushi added, “Also, I was not born like this and all actors groom themselves, and of course vanity is a large part of our life! I care about my looks, but haven't changed every single thing about my face. I don't want to set unrealistic standards of beauty and so I became open about the procedures I had done to look like this.”
Khushi’s openness — which includes admissions of nose work, eyebrow nanoblading and lip fillers — marks a shift in Bollywood’s typically secretive stance on cosmetic work. Her advocacy for honesty aims to foster realistic expectations for young fans and lessen the shame often attached to self-care.
On the work front, Khushi was recently seen opposite Ibrahim Ali Khan in Nadaaniyan.

Rakesh Roshan undergoes neck angioplasty, recovering in Mumbai hospital
Veteran filmmaker and... Read More
Veteran filmmaker and actor Rakesh Roshan, father of Bollywood star Hrithik Roshan, recently underwent a medical procedure for a health issue concerning his neck. The 74-year-old was admitted to Mumbai’s Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital earlier this week, where doctors performed a carotid artery angioplasty — a procedure aimed at restoring proper blood flow to the brain by clearing blocked arteries in the neck.
According to hospital sources, the surgery was successful, and Roshan is currently under observation in the recovery unit. A carotid artery angioplasty is often conducted when fatty deposits block the blood vessels that supply blood to the brain and head, increasing the risk of stroke. The procedure involves using a balloon-tipped catheter to widen the artery and improve blood flow, sometimes followed by the placement of a stent to keep the artery open.
His daughter Sunaina Roshan confirmed the news and shared an update about his health in a brief conversation with Amar Ujala Digital. She said, “Yes, papa had an angioplasty in his neck, but he’s perfectly fine now. There’s nothing to worry about. He’s resting.”
Rakesh Roshan is reported to be stable and responding well to treatment. He is expected to remain in the hospital for a few more days as a precautionary measure. The Roshan family has not yet issued an official statement, but those close to them have indicated there is no cause for immediate concern.
Rakesh Roshan has had prior health challenges, including a battle with early-stage throat cancer in 2018, which he successfully overcame. Known for directing blockbuster hits like Karan Arjun, Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai, and the Krrish franchise, Roshan’s health has long been a matter of public interest.

Aanand L Rai condemns AI-altered Raanjhanaa re-release: “This is a gross violation of creative trust”
Filmmaker Aanand L... Read More
Filmmaker Aanand L Rai has issued a strongly worded statement against Eros International following the re-release of his 2013 film Raanjhanaa, which hit theatres again on February 28 this year with an altered climax reportedly generated using Artificial Intelligence (AI). The filmmaker, who directed the original film starring Dhanush and Sonam Kapoor, has now publicly distanced himself from the updated version.
In a quote shared with the media, Rai expressed deep disappointment over not being consulted before the re-edit. “People connected with Raanjhanaa because of its flaws and imperfections,” he said. “To see its ending altered without a word of discussion is a gross violation not just of the film, but of the trust of the fans who’ve carried the film in their hearts for 12 years.”
The director didn’t hold back in criticising the production house, calling the move “reckless” and questioning its ethical and legal implications. “Eros’s actions open a dangerous door. They raise urgent legal and ethical questions, of the impact of decisions like this on the moral rights of creators,” Rai said.
A particular point of contention for Rai is the reported use of AI to modify performances by the lead actors, long after the film’s original release. “Even worse is their apparent decision to alter the actors’ contributions without their consent! How can they digitally manipulate an actor’s input almost a decade after a film’s release? This strips away their agency, and raises serious concerns under personality and image rights,” he added.
The filmmaker also warned against the precedent such decisions could set for the industry. “If this goes unquestioned, what stops anyone from ‘updating’ any film, performance, or legacy to suit short-term profiteering?” he asked, arguing that the move risks reducing the creative process to something disposable.
“I’m heartbroken that this is the future we’re heading toward, where intent and authorship are disposable,” Rai concluded. “All I can do is dissociate myself from such a reckless and dystopian experiment.”
It is worth noting that the makers have not responded to the criticism, as of now.

BREAKING: 2.39 minutes long War 2 trailer passed by the CBFC; all set to be unveiled next week
Yash Raj Films (YRF)... Read More
Yash Raj Films (YRF) is on a roll. Its youthful love story, Saiyaara, opened with a bang today, sending shockwaves across the industry and trade. Next week, it’ll bring out its intriguing web series, Mandala Murders, starring Vaani Kapoor, on Netflix. This will be followed by arguably the most-awaited film of the year, War 2. The action entertainer will release on August 14 and YRF has already begun working towards its promotions. In a significant development, its trailer has been passed by the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC).
The CBFC passed the War 2 promo today, Friday, July 18, with a U/A 16+ certificate. As per reports, the run time of the trailer is 2 minutes and 39 seconds. Reports also state that YRF will unveil the promo to the excited moviegoers next week.
Meanwhile, the teaser of War 2, which was dropped on May 20, has been attached with Saiyaara. A trade expert commented, “It would have been great if instead of the teaser, the theatrical trailer of War 2 was attached with Saiyaara’s prints. With Saiyaara all set to become a huge hit, a huge chunk of moviegoers would have got a chance to see the promo of War 2 in all its glory on the big screen. It would have also gone well with the YRF tradition. In the past, assets of many of their forthcoming films were launched in this manner. Nevertheless, the buzz for War 2 is super strong and is keenly awaited.”
War 2 stars Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR in a massy face-off. Kiara Advani also features in this flick and her bikini-clad avatar got a rocking response. War 2 marks Ayan Mukerji’s first collaboration with YRF. It is also a part of YRF’s Spy Universe. Interestingly, another film from this cinematic universe, Alpha, starring Alia Bhatt and Sharvari, will also be out this year on Christmas.

Tillotama Shome starrer Baksho Bondi – Shadowbox to open the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne 2025
Following its world... Read More
Following its world premiere at the 2025 Berlin Film Festival in the Perspective section, the Bengali film Baksho Bondi – Shadowbox, starring Tillotama Shome and produced by Shome and Jim Sarbh, will open the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne (IFFM) 2025 as the Opening Night Film, marking its Australian premiere.
Co-directed by Tanushree Das and Saumyananda Sahi in their directorial debut, Baksho Bondi features Tillotama Shome as Maya, set against the backdrop of a dusty Kolkata suburb, weaving a powerful narrative of love, resilience, and the quiet strength of a working woman navigating her everyday life.
The Opening Night screening is scheduled for August 14th in Melbourne, setting the tone for the festival’s celebration of bold, layered, and deeply human stories from India.
Tillotama Shome, reflecting on the film’s journey, shared, “Baksho Bondi is incredibly close to my heart. Playing Maya was a lesson in listening to silences, in discovering strength in small acts, and in understanding how quiet resilience shapes women’s lives in a world that often overlooks them. After Berlin, bringing Maya’s story to Melbourne feels special because of the incredible strength and spirit of inclusion that radiates from Mitu, the festival director of the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne. This film is a love letter to working women, to dusty afternoons in Barrackpore and to the courage that quietly persists even when no one is watching.”
Mitu Bhowmick Lange, Director of the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne, added, “We are honoured to open IFFM 2025 with Baksho Bondi – Shadowbox, a film that exemplifies the strength of Indian independent cinema while touching on themes that are deeply personal and globally relatable. Tillotama Shome’s performance as Maya is nothing short of extraordinary, and Tanushree Das and Saumyananda Sahi have crafted a tender, honest, and visually stunning film that resonates with the spirit of resilience and hope. It is exactly the kind of cinema we are proud to showcase at IFFM, and we are excited for Australian audiences to experience this gem on our Opening Night.”
Baksho Bondi – Shadowbox further solidifies IFFM’s commitment to showcasing stories that are rooted in lived realities while embracing the power of cinematic storytelling, making it a perfect start for the 2025 edition.
Now in its 16th year, the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne (IFFM) is recognised as one of the largest platforms for Indian cinema outside India. Supported by the Victorian Government, the festival will take place from August 14 to 24. This year’s award nominees highlight a wide range of stories from across languages and formats. The IFFM Awards Night, scheduled for August 15, will honour achievements in both film and OTT categories.

EXCLUSIVE: UPI changed to OBI in Special Ops 2
It's common for... Read More
It's common for Indian moviegoers to be subjected to cuts and modifications of scenes and dialogues courtesy the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). Such kind of censoring also exists for the web series as evident by the latest release, Special Ops 2.
The action thriller show is based on cyber terrorism with Tahir Raj Bhasin's character playing a villain. A source told Bollywood Hungama, “He plays a cyber criminal who wants to access the data of the UPI (United Payments Interface) users for malicious intent. A scene where he mentions the same was also included in the trailer of the show.”
The source continued, “However, the word 'UPI' has been changed to 'OBI' in the show. The old trailer has also been removed and a new promo has been added. It mentions the new release date and also 'OBI'.”
An industry insider added, “Since it's a sensitive topic, the makers must have got a directive not to mention UPI. This could also be the reason why the show's release date was pushed from July 11 to July 18 as dubbing and making changes must have taken time.”
The industry insider also remarked, “The change doesn't affect the show as one can understand what the villain is talking about. Also, let's not forget that terms like Reserve Bank of India, China etc. have been allowed.”
Special Ops 2 also stars Kay Kay Menon, Karan Tacker, Saiyami Kher, Prakash Raj, Parmeet Sethi, Muzzamil Ibrahim and others. It has released on July 18 on JioHotstar. The first season arrived in 2020 while a mini series named Special Ops 1.5 released in late 2021.

Akshay Kumar takes heroism off-screen; insures 650+ stuntmen across India in landmark move
Known as Bollywood’s... Read More
Known as Bollywood’s original Khiladi, Akshay Kumar has now proven he’s a real-life hero too. In a groundbreaking move, the superstar has personally insured the lives of over 650 stuntmen and stuntwomen across India — offering them critical health and accident coverage many never had before.
This life-changing initiative arrives at a time when conversations around safety in the entertainment industry have gained urgency, especially in the wake of the tragic death of a stuntman named Raju on the set of an upcoming Tamil film by Pa Ranjith and Arya. For decades, stunt professionals have risked life and limb to deliver thrilling cinematic moments — often working with minimal safety gear and zero medical backup. A single injury can result in financial ruin, as the majority of these behind-the-scenes heroes lack basic health insurance.
Akshay Kumar’s initiative not only offers them tangible protection but also a sense of visibility and value long overdue. Speaking on behalf of the stunt community, seasoned action professional Vikram Singh Dahiya — who has worked on films like Dhadak 2, Jigra, Gunjan Saxena, Antim, and OMG 2 — expressed heartfelt appreciation.
“Thanks to Akshay sir, around 650 to 700 stuntmen and action crew members in Bollywood are now covered under insurance,” Dahiya shared. “The policy includes both health and accident coverage. If a stunt performer is injured, whether on or off set, they can avail of cashless medical treatment up to ₹5 to ₹5.5 lakh.”
This insurance plan — covering a substantial portion of the action community — is being hailed as a benchmark initiative. It demonstrates how influential figures in the film industry can use their platform to bring about meaningful, lasting change. With this bold step, Akshay Kumar is not just ensuring better safety nets for the unsung heroes of cinema — he’s setting a powerful precedent for social responsibility in showbiz.

A post shared by Nidhi Dutta (@nidhiduttaofficial)
Earlier, Nidhi had bravely shared her pregnancy journey on Instagram, opening up about her emotional struggles with infertility and the challenges of TTC (Trying to Conceive). In a heartfelt post that resonated with thousands, she wrote: “This picture in any other country but India would have been tagged on Instagram as ‘Sensitive content’ as it is an absolute mental health trigger for anyone that is TTC… The journey to get to this picture has been one of tears, fear, pain & longing… a woman ‘trying to conceive’ can have the greatest partner and support system but can still feel all alone through it.”
Choosing to speak out during her fertility journey rather than after, Nidhi’s post struck a chord with women everywhere, especially those facing similar challenges. She continued: “To all the women who have lost their babies before they met them… to the ones still waiting… no matter which phase of TTC you're in — this mom to be sees you… was you… and is praying for you with every step I take.”

With the arrival of baby Sitara, Nidhi and Binoy now step into a new phase of life, one filled with love, laughter, and late-night lullabies. The entertainment industry, fans, and well-wishers have showered the couple with congratulations and blessings.
Nidhi Dutta, daughter of legendary filmmaker J.P. Dutta, tied the knot with Binoy Gandhi in a grand ceremony at Rambagh Palace, Jaipur on March 7, 2021. While their wedding was a star-studded affair, their path to parenthood was filled with resilience, hope, and courage.
As Sitara Dutta Gandhi begins her journey in the world, her story — and her mother’s strength — will continue to inspire countless others still waiting for their miracle.
