Kareena to begin filming for Karan Johar’s Takht in December

Kareena Kapoor Khan is keeping quite busy these days. The diva is gearing up to make her television debut with the upcoming season of the popular dance reality show, Dance India Dance. DID is currently running into its seventh season, and Bebo will be seen gracing the panel of judges on the show, alongside Bosco Martis and Raftaar. The actress will be busy with the dance reality show for the next three and a half month.

While judging Dance India Dance, Kareena Kapoor Khan will also be expected to take some time out to begin shooting for Dinesh Vijan’s much-awaited film, Angrezi Medium, which also stars Irrfan Khan and Radhika Madan in lead roles. The actress will head off to London to shoot for her portions in the satirical film.


Amidst all this, how can we forget her biggest film in recent years: Takht? The Karan Johar directorial, which was slated to begin production in mid-2019, has been pushed to December. Kareena, along with other cast members, will begin shooting for the period drama in December. Besides Bebo, the multi-starrer has Alia Bhatt, Ranveer Singh, Vicky Kaushal, Anil Kapoor, Bhumi Pednekar and Janhvi Kapoor on its ensemble cast.

To be made on a lavish budget, Takht reunites Kareena Kapoor Khan with filmmaker Karan Johar after a long gap of 18 years. They last worked together on the all-time blockbuster, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, which hit the marquee in 2001. Reportedly, the actress will go through serious preparation to work on her dialect, looks etc. Takht is slated to roll into theatres in 2020.

Nick Jonas says it's 'scary' to imagine daughter Malti in showbiz after what he and Priyanka faced

Nick Jonas is no stranger to fame. From performing on Broadway as a child to becoming one-third of the Jonas Brothers, he’s spent most of his life under the spotlight. His wife, Priyanka Chopra, entered the world of glamour as a teenager, winning Miss World at 18 before making it big in Bollywood and then Hollywood. So, it’s only natural that people are curious whether their daughter, Malti Marie, might follow in their footsteps.

During a recent appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show, Nick opened up about the possibility. When asked whether he’d be okay with his daughter getting into the entertainment industry at a young age, he paused before saying it’s a decision she’ll have to make herself. While three-year-old Malti already enjoys singing, Nick admitted that the idea of her stepping into such a demanding field so early is unsettling.

Akshay Kumar tells King Charles to watch Kesari 2: “You’ll know why the British should say sorry”

Akshay Kumar isn’t asking for an apology. He just wants the British to look back and really see what happened. With his upcoming film Kesari Chapter 2 hitting screens on April 18, the actor is urging both the UK government and King Charles to watch the film and confront a dark chapter in colonial history.

The film, directed by Karan Singh Tyagi and based on The Case That Shook the Empire by Raghu and Pushpa Palat, tells the story of C. Sankaran Nair, a Malayali lawyer who took legal action against General Dyer and the British government after the Jallianwala Bagh massacre of 1919. The massacre when British troops opened fire on a peaceful crowd remains one of the most horrific events of British rule in India.
