But the most interesting comeback to screen is that of veteran Soni Razdan, who is all set to dazzle in Hero Heeroine playing a role reminiscent of Meryl Streep’s Miranda in The Devil Wears Prada.

Tusshar Kapoor for the first time, appears as himself, and Ishita Chauhan takes on the role of a chef. Arbaaz Khan and Vinay Pathak are also part of the vast cast. Noteworthy Telugu actors will also join the cast soon.

The male lead of the film is yet to be decided, with Divya Khosla Kumar playing the beautiful actress Priyadarshini.

Budget battles stall Ranveer Singh and Aditya Dhar’s action thriller; project to be scaled down amid budget concerns

Over the last few months, it was confirmed that Ranveer Singh and Aditya Dhar are teaming up for the first time on an action-packed saga. The director, Aditya Dhar had even started the recce for the film with the intent to take the film on floors in Summer 2024. However, in an unusual turn of events, there is a delay in the shooting schedule of this action-packed thriller.

A source told Bollywood Hungama anonymously, “Ranveer Singh and Aditya Dhar are very keen to make their first collaboration very special. They want to mount the film like the biggest action thriller set against the backdrop of politics and gang wars. The vision to make this requires a big budget and they are not able to align their vision with their studio partner.”

The source further informed that Aditya Dhar is now taking time off to rework the script and scale down some of the action sequences to bring it into a particular budget structure. “The market is not lucrative as the digital streaming market has come down in the last 2 years. With films not fetching the requisite value of digital rights, the studios have asked a lot of directors to rework their budgets. Aditya Dhar is now working to get budgets in place,” the source told us further.

There is a delay of at least 3 to 4 months on the film now and the new timelines of the shoot will be decided shortly.

Salman Khan Gunshots Firing: Salim Khan breaks silence on the attack: “They just want publicity”

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan’s residence at Galaxy Apartments in Mumbai became the scene of a security breach on April 14. Two unidentified assailants on a motorcycle fired multiple rounds outside the actor’s home, triggering concern and swift action from authorities. No injuries were reported. However, the gravity of the situation prompted immediate action from Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, who assured Khan of heightened security measures. The Mumbai Police launched an investigation into the incident, registering an FIR under Section 307 of the Indian Penal Code and 3(25) section of the Arms Act.

Speaking to CNN News18, Salim Khan, writer and Salman’s father, reacted to the incident. He said, “There is nothing to tell. They just want publicity, there is no need to worry.”

According to a report in NDTV, sources have revealed that two gunmen are reportedly affiliated with gangster Lawrence Bishnoi’s gang. Anmol Bishnoi, Lawrence Bishnoi’s brother, claimed responsibility in an online post, describing the attack as a “preview” and issuing a warning to the Bollywood actor. However, the authenticity of the claim is yet to be verified independently.

One of the suspects, Vishal, is believed to have ties with Rohit Godara, a notorious member of the Bishnoi gang implicated in various violent crimes. CCTV footage revealed that the assailants wore caps and carried backpacks while firing towards Khan’s residence. Descriptions of their attire include one suspect in a white t-shirt with a black jacket and denim pants, and the other in a red t-shirt with denim pants. Prior to the attack, reports state that the suspects checked out the place near Galaxy Apartments. After abandoning their motorcycle, suspected to be stolen, near Mount Mary Church in Bandra, the assailants reportedly managed to evade capture by taking a rickshaw to Bandra railway station. Currently, both individuals are on the run, according to police sources.

Following the incident, Salman Khan’s family members Arbaaz Khan and wife Sshura Khan, Sohail Khan, Arpita Khan Sharma, Alvira Agnihotri and more visited Salman’s residence.
