Coolie No. 1 motion poster out

Motion poster of renowned filmmaker David Dhawan’s next directorial, Coolie No. 1, has been unveiled. As the title suggests itself, the movie is an official remake of his 1995 cult comic-caper by the same name. While the original film starred Govinda and Karisma Kapoor in lead roles, the remake features Varun Dhawan and Sara Ali Khan as the lead pair.

Varun Dhawan, who reteams with his filmmaker father, David Dhawan, for the third time after hits like Main Tera Hero (2014) and Judwaa 2 (2017), on Sunday unveiled the motion poster of Coolie No. 1 on his Twitter handle. "Mujhe pata hai ki aapko pata hai. Aapko pata hai ki mujhe pata hai. Lekin kya aapko voh pata hai jo mujhe pata hai? #1May2020 #CoolieNo.1," tweeted the Bollywood star.


The team commenced the first shooting schedule of the film in Bangkok earlier this week. This is the first time when Varun Dhawan has joined hands with newcomer Sara Ali Khan for a film. Besides Varun and Sara, the audience will also see seasoned actors Paresh Rawal and Johny Lever essaying important characters in the comic-caper. The movie is set to roll into theatres on 1st May, 2020.

Varun, who was last seen in Dharma Productions’ period drama Kalank (2019), recently wrapped up his much-awaited dance film, Street Dancer 3D, with Shraddha Kapoor. The movie reunites Varun and Shraddha with filmmaker Remo D'souza after ABCD 2 (2015), which was a big box-office success.

As for Sara Ali Khan, she has just wrapped up her third Bollywood outing, Aaj Kal. She pairs up opposite rising Bollywood star Kartik Aaryan in the film which has been directed by ace storyteller Imtiaz Ali. Aaj Kal is slated to hit the marquee on 14th February, 2020.

Val Kilmer, the celebrated actor known for his roles in Top Gun, Batman Forever, and The Doors, has passed away at the age of 65.

Born in Los Angeles in 1959, Kilmer’s passion for acting led him to the prestigious Juilliard School, where he became one of its youngest-ever students. His career began with comedic roles in Top Secret! (1984) and Real Genius (1985), but he soon transitioned to more intense characters, firming his reputation as a serious actor.

L2: Empuraan - A film that shattered records and sparked a political storm

Few films manage to be both a record-breaking success and a lightning rod for controversy at the same time. But L2: Empuraan, the much-hyped sequel to Lucifer, has done exactly that. The Prithviraj Sukumaran directorial, starring Mohanlal, has not only rewritten and shattered box office history but also sparked a nationwide debate on censorship, political narratives, and artistic freedom.

On one hand, it’s the fastest Malayalam film to gross £5.1 million (₹50 crore) in Kerala, the first Malayalam film to cross £10.2 million (₹100 crore) overseas, and a £20.4 million (₹200 crore) club entrant within just five days. On the other hand, it has been accused of pushing a political agenda, leading to 2m 8s, 24 last-minute cuts, a legal battle, and a full-blown culture war.
