Baazigar ft Kajol, Srk. (Photo Credit – IMDb/Instagram/Youtube)
Baazigar is one of the most loved and entertaining crime thrillers of the 90s. It’s the first film in which Shah Rukh Khan plays the bad buy. The 1993 thriller is also the first time we saw Srk and Kajol together on screen. Shilpa Shetty made her Bollywood debut with the Abbas-Mustan directorial.
It has been three decades since Baazigar was released, and people can’t get enough of the dialogues, music, performances, Srk, and Kajol’s chemistry. But did you know that Abbas-Mustan initially hired Nadeem-Shravan to compose the film’s music? However, the duo wanted the makers to drop Kajol from the film. When things didn’t work out, the directorial duo hired Anu Malik to compose the film’s music.

Hulu’s list of new releases for May 2024 is missing a certain amount of original series firepower. In the place of a blockbuster like The Handmaid’s Tale or Shōgun, however, is some content diversity.
The first of the month sees the premiere of four-episode British series Shardlake. This mystery drama takes place during the reign of Henry VIII and features none other than Thomas Cromwell (Sean Bean) investigating a murder. Other series of note this month include the Korean drama Uncle Samsik on May 15.
Movies are bit more interesting on Hulu in May. Teen comedy Prom Dates premieres on May 3. That will be followed by the 2023 Adam Drive film Ferrari on May 24. Before all that though is the real heavy hitter. You can watch Austin Butler’s acclaimed performance as The King in Elvis as early as May 1. But get to it quick before the Baz Luhrmann film departs on...

Mumbai, March 8 (Ians) Hindi cinema has always been known for impactful dialogues, and despite its old male bias (which is tilting in the right direction lately!), it is no longer the men who deliver a punch in the lines they mouth.
The women of Hindi cinema have delivered some of its iconic dialogues over the years that have left an indelible mark on the subconscious of the audience.
Ians takes a look at some of the most iconic dialogues by Bollywood women that have defined power, resilience and pride.
The first dialogue on the list is by Sonam Kapoor from her film ‘Neerja’ in which she says, “Haunsla rakh, usse saari samasya hal ho jaati hai.” The dialogue beautifully conveys that when the going is tough, courage is what gets people going. Courage changes the character of a person and makes them better equipped to deal with any situation.

Be it today’s best, Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone, or Varun Dhawan & Alia Bhatt. Be it the unconventional pair of Ajay Devgn & Tabu or the short-lived pair of Hrithik Roshan & Kareena Kapoor Khan. All of them are usually compared with their real-life couples, and the ones who have borne the brunt of this unfair comparison throughout their careers have been Ajay Devgn & Kajol.
The on-screen turned off-screen couple and their chemistry have always been pitted against Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol.

Indian filmmaker and TV personality Karan Johar has become the first Indian director to receive the Variety Vanguard Award, presented by the Red Sea International Film Festival, recognizing industry leaders who have significantly contributed to the global entertainment business. On Saturday, Variety’s executive editor of film and media, Tatiana Siegel, handed Johar his award at the third edition of the film festival, followed by a career-spanning conversation.
The director-producer-tv host came out of a seven-year directing hiatus with the highly successful “Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani.” The pause, the filmmaker says, was due to his busy schedule as head of the production company Dharma Productions and the host of “Koffee With Karan,” one of India’s longest-running and most popular talk shows.
“Being a studio head, you have many responsibilities and I wanted to direct more often. My primary passion is being a director,” he said. “When I sleep at night,...

The latest episode of Koffee with Karan season five has two actors who were the first babies of Karan Johar, as stated by the director/producer at the end of the show. As they walked in, Karan could not stop gushing over the fact that the two actors he’d launched had reached the pinnacle of success and were still striving to do more. The original Student of the Year cast, Sidharth Malhotra and Varun Dhawan graced the show in this episode, and the entire hour was a hoot.
Recap: Major Highlights Of The Episode
The student-mentor relationship between them was the highlight of the chat show, and Varun Dhawan began by asking if the host Karan would only talk about Alia, even though she was not physically a part of this episode. It was a callback to the backlash Karan received for speaking too much about Alia in the last season.

Bollywood actor Sidharth Malhotra, who was last seen in the spy-thriller film ‘Mission Majnu’, appeared on the streaming chat show ‘Koffee With Karan’ along with actor Varun Dhawan, and the two had an absolute blast on the episode.
During the episode, Sid took a dig at Karan about how hard the director was with him and Varun during the making of ‘Student of the Year’ which served as a debut vehicle for Sid, Varun and Alia Bhatt.
Sid and Varun’s banter on the show put Karan Johar, who otherwise is known to make his guests go speechless with controversies, on the backfoot as the ‘My Name is Khan’ director barely got to speak.
The two actors clearly took away the locus of control from Karan during the episode and that’s what made it a refreshing watch.

Continuing its powerhouse run at worldwide turnstiles, Shah Rukh Khan espionage actioner Pathaan has topped the global box office century mark, getting there in 12 days on Sunday and now with 103.6M through Monday. It is the first Bollywood movie to the 100M milestone without a China release.
The split sits at 526 gross crore (64.2M) in India and 39.4M from overseas markets through Monday. Already, the Siddharth Anand-directed pic is the biggest Bollywood movie ever globally in the original Hindi language.
This is where it gets slightly confusing in terms of the records posted. Aamir Khan-starrers Dangal and Secret Superstar, both Bollywood titles, remain ahead of Pathaan on a worldwide basis, but that includes over 100M each from China where the movies were dubbed for local audiences. Similarly, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, which stars Salman Khan who also appears in Pathaan, is still ahead globally having had a dubbed China release. There...
