From Nowhere, Raksha Bandhan and Shamshera Become Talk of The Town Bollywood

From Nowhere, Raksha Bandhan and Shamshera Become Talk of The Town

Mumbai, June 23 - There is a popular saying that you need just one big moment to shine through and well, that seems to be happening with two of the most-awaited Bollywood movies - Raksha Bandhan and Shamshera. ## The Akshay Kumar and Ranbir Kapoor starrers are among the most important upcoming Hindi films, which now seem to be potential winners at the box office. However, nearly a week before, both the movies were nowhere in the scene as there was hardly anyone talking about them. It looked like no one was interested in them. ## But things changed and from nowhere to becoming talks of the town - this all happened within a week, thanks to the top promos and posters of the movies. Talking about Akshay Kumar-fronted Raksha Bandhan, the movie is carrying a lot of reputation and it must work at the box office to keep that reputation unharmed.## Directed by Anand L Rai, the makers have been releasing the posters since last week and they are attractive, especially for the audiences who love to watch movies with the family. However, it was the trailer of the film, which has raised the expectations bar high, and suddenly, it is looking like an event film. It was an underdog earlier but now seems to be holding the advantage over Aamir Khan's Laal Singh Chanddha, which will be released day and date on August 11 during Independence Day week. ## The Ranbir Kapoor-headed Shamshera is completely different from Akshay Kumar-starrer but it is equally carrying a lot of expectations. More than Ranbir Kapoor, the film is important for Yash Raj Films which has had three failures at the box office over the period of the last 8 months. Shamshera, slated to release on July 22, is the last film in YRF's current slot and it seems to be the biggest of them. ## Just like Raksha Bandhan, Shamshera too was looking for a dated film a week before. But a leaked poster and the teaser have worked wonders for it and now, it is seriously looking like a potential box office blockbuster. There is positive and loud chatter around this movie among the industry people and audiences, which wasn't a week before. ## While the overall box office fate of both the movies remains to see, one thing is sure both movies will take very good openings. And if the word of mouth is positive, then the makers have two blockbusters in their hands. ## Stay tuned...

Raksha Bandhan Trailer Talk: Akshay Kumar Returns To His Strongest Zone

Mumbai, June 22 - The positive vibes return in the Bollywood camp, and this time, it's not about just one movie but an exciting lineup awaits to entertain the audiences. One of the most important films for the Hindi film industry is Akshay Kumar-fronted "Raksha Bandhan", which will open during Independence Day week. ## "Raksha Bandhan" is particularly very important for Akshay Kumar who has had a dull year so far with two back-to-back box office failures in the form of "Bachchhan Paandey" and "Samrat Prithviraj". However, it looks like he will be back in his old form with Anand L Rai-directorial and there are many reasons to justify this. ## The trailer of "Raksha Bandhan" was launched on July 21st and not so surprisingly, it turned out to be exactly what the industry needs at the moment. The trailer is a perfect mixture of comedy, humor, and drama which has worked at the box office more often than not.## The nearly 3 minutes long trailer falls in the same category which has given Akshay Kumar a lot of success over the last 5-6 years. Family drama film with the elements of comedy has always been Akshay's strength and he has once again shown his strength in the upcoming movie, going by trailer. ## "Raksha Bandhan" has a simple story of a brother and his 4 sisters, played by Sadia Khateeb, Sahejmeen Kaur, Deepika Khanna, and Smrithi Srikanth. He is worried about their marriages and is willing to sell even his kidneys to make them settle in their lives. While performing his brotherly duties, he has his own love life for which he has to make a tough decision. ## The movie also marks the pairing of Akshay and Bhumi Pandekar who is already tried and tested on-screen couple in the superhit "Toilet Ek Prem Katha". The upcoming movie promises to be another solid outing for them. Overall, the trailer of "Raksha Bandhan" has left a huge impact on the audience which will surely bring a positive outcome at the box office, hopefully. ## The movie is produced by Akshay's Cape Of Good Films, and Rai's Colour Yellow Productions. The movie will be released in theaters on August 11. ## ## Stay tuned...

Shamshera Teaser Talk: Yash Raj Films Saved The Best For The Last? Bollywood

Shamshera Teaser Talk: Yash Raj Films Saved The Best For The Last?

Mumbai, June 22 - Yash Raj Films has been one of the biggest production houses in India, yet it has been very tough last few months for the studio. YRF has released three films since October last year but none of them could create magic at the box office as all three failed to attract the audience. ## The studio is now gearing up for its 4th release in the form of "Shamshera". It is the last film in YRF's current slot, and guess what, it promises to be the best of them. The teaser of this Ranbir Kapoor-fronted period action drama film was released on June 22, and surprisingly, it makes a solid punch. ## One of the biggest reasons for the failure of YRF's previous three films was that promos of them weren't not promising which couldn't create a positive first impression on the audiences. However, this time it looks like YRF has learned a lesson and released an exceptional teaser of "Shamshera", which has become the talk of the town. ## Everything about the "Shamshera" movie, from first look poster to teaser, has been up to the mark so far. The first look poster of the movie was revealed a couple of days ago and it was striking. And now, the teaser has further raised the expectations.## The biggest talking point of the teaser is the scale with which the movie has been made. The cinematography by Anay Goswamy looks spectacular. While this 1-minute 21 seconds teaser didn't reveal much it has surely got the attantion of the audience, and director Karan Malhotra deserves praise for this. ## The movie stars Ranbir Kapoor as Shamshera along with Sanjay Dutt as Inspector Shudh Singh, Vaani Kapoor, Ashutosh Rana, Saurabh Shukla, Ronit Roy, and Tridha Choudhury in key roles. In the movie, Sanjay Dutt plays Ranbir's arch-enemy and his showdown with Ranbir will be something to watch out for as they will ferociously go after each other with no mercy.## "Shamshera" will be released on July 22nd in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu, also in 3D and IMAX 3D. The trailer will be released on June 24. ## ## Stay tuned...

I hope both the films have a good run", Akshay said at the trailer launch event. ## Directed by Anand L Rai, the trailer of "Raksha Bandhan" has become the talk of the town. It is the perfect mixture of comedy, and drama revolving around a brother and his four sisters.

Mumbai, June 20 - Kartik Aaryan-fronted Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 is turning out to be one of the biggest post-pandemic Indian blockbusters at the box office.

Shaktimaan Movie To Be Made In A Budget of Rs. 300 Crores

Mumbai, June 18 - The iconic television show, "Shaktimaan" was a huge hit when it was first aired in 1997. Mukesh Khanna played the titular superhero character and his alter ego Pandit Gangadhar Vidhyadhar Mayadhar Omkarnath Shastri, a photographer for the newspaper Aaj Ki Aawaz.## The legendary superhero character, which made the childhood of 90s kids awesome, will now be returning to the big screen in the form of the "Shaktimaan" trilogy. Sony Pictures, which is behind the Marvel superhero films like "Spider-Man", and "Venom", hold the rights to the film. ## In a recent conversation with Amar Ujala, Mukesh Khanna shared a few details about the movie and also hint who could play the titular role. The actor, and producer said that it will be made on a huge budget of Rs. 300 crores and will have full desi vibes. ## "This project has come to me after many years. People used to tell me to make Shaktimaan 2. I didn't want to bring Shaktimaan back on TV", Khanna said. "After internal talks, I joined hands with the Sony people and later made the news public. People want to know what’s happening next. Now, what should I tell them? This is a big film of at least Rs 300 crore. Can't tell you much about it till everything is finalized". ## "This movie is being made by the makers of Spider-Man. But, Shaktimaan will be desi. I have prepared the story of the film in my own way. My only condition to them was that they wouldn't change the story", he added. ## Mukhesh Khanna hints that he might turn Shakitmaan again as he feels that the Indian audience will not accept anyone else in this iconic role. "People ask who will become Shaktimaan? This is also a very big question in itself, which I will not answer, but it is also certain that without Mukesh Khanna, there will be no Shaktimaan. Because if someone else becomes Shaktimaan, then the whole country will not accept him", he added. ## Earlier this year, Sony Pictures made the official announcement of the movie and also gave the first look at Shakitmaan's new suit. It will be produced by Sony Pictures International Productions in association with Mukesh Khanna's Bheeshm International, and Brewing Thoughts Private Limited. ## Stay tuned...

Filmmaker Karan Johar On KGF Chapter 2, 'Had We Made It, We Would Have Lynched' Bollywood

Filmmaker Karan Johar On KGF Chapter 2, 'Had We Made It, We Would Have Lynched'

Mumbai, June 17 - The year 2022 belongs to South Indian cinema which has delivered the 3 biggest blockbusters of the year in the form of "KGF Chapter 2", "RRR", and "Vikram". These movies have not only performed extraordinarily at the box office but also were hailed critically. ## Bollywood filmmaker Karan Johar also praised the highest Indian grosser of the year "KGF Chapter 2" but it seems he is not happy with critics' overwhelming response to it. The filmmaker in a recent interview said that had "KGF 2" been made in Bollywood, critics would have slammed it left, right, and center. ## "When I read the reviews of KGF, I'm like if we made this, we would be lynched. But here, everybody is like 'Oh it was a celebration, a party' and it was. I loved it. I loved it with all my heart. But I feel hum yeh banaate to? (If we had made this, then?)", he said. ## KGF Chapter 2 grossed approx. 1210 crores at the worldwide box office and is now the 3rd highest-grossing Indian movie of all time. In the dubbed Hindi version, this period action drama film made a whopping 435 crores net. Karan Johar added that Bollywood makers are not given the same liberty that filmmakers from the South industries often enjoy. ## "It's working both ways. I feel we are also not given any kind of leeway and then we are trying to be somebody else. So, we are all over the place. We are living a dual existence and we have to stop", he added.## On the work front, Karan Johar is currently directing his comeback movie "Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani", starring Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt. It is scheduled to release in February 2023. Karan will also be directing his first action film next year. As a producer, he is gearing up for the release of "Jug Jugg Jeeyo", due on June 24. ## Stay tuned...
