The makers of Chhalaang on Friday shared a brand-new poster of their upcoming film ahead of its trailer launch on Saturday. Starring Rajkummar Rao and Nushrat Bharucha in central characters, the movie is set to premiere on 13th November on leading streaming media platform Amazon Prime Video.

Unveiling the new poster of the inspirational social comedy set in a small town in Uttar Pradesh, Rajkummar Rao wrote on his Instagram account, “Get, set, Chhalaang! Trailer out tomorrow. Watch Montu Masterji and team on Prime Video.”

In the poster, Rao is seen hustling on the ground as he is trying his best to reach the finish line. Bharucha and other children from the school use all their might to stop him from doing so. The Stree (2018) actor plays the role of a school sports teacher in the movie.

This is the first time when Rajkummar Rao will share the screen space with Nushrat Bharucha. In addition to Rao and Bharucha, Chhalaang also stars Mohd Zeeshan Ayyub, Satish Kaushik, Ila Arun, and Jatin Sarna in important characters.

Directed by award-winning filmmaker Hansal Mehta, Chhalaang has faced quite a delay in its release. The film was originally made for theatres and was set to enter cinemas in March. However, the Coronavirus pandemic and the various restrictions it brought along sent all plans for a toss. The film is now set to release digitally on Amazon Prime Video.

Chhalaang is Rajkummar Rao and Hansal Mehta's fifth film together after Shahid (2012), CityLights (2014), Aligarh (2015), and Omerta (2017). It is presented by Bhushan Kumar and produced by Ajay Devgn, Luv Ranjan, and Ankur Garg.

The trailer of the film drops tomorrow.

While their breakup was widely covered at the time, Hadid says they’ve moved forward with mutual respect. “Zayn and I plan our schedules ahead of time,” she explained, adding that although changes come up, they make sure to support one another. For Gigi, the focus is simple: raising their daughter in a way that honours their shared history and maintains a respectful partnership. “People will always have something to say, but our priority is Khai,” she said. “We’re not here to explain everything.”

​Scarlett Johansson slams SNL’s 'gross' vagina joke: ‘It was intense. I felt like I’d pass out!'

Scarlett Johansson has finally addressed the jaw-dropping joke about her that aired during Saturday Night Live’s holiday episode in December. Her husband, Colin Jost, was made to deliver the punchline live on air, and Johansson, watching from backstage, was left stunned. In a recent interview with InStyle, she described the moment as “so gross” and admitted she couldn’t believe the show went that far.

The joke was part of the show’s annual “Weekend Update” tradition, where Jost and his co-host Michael Che write outrageous jokes for each other to read without any prior warning. This time, Che handed Jost a line that compared Johansson to a Costco roast beef sandwich in a joke about their sex life. When Jost read it aloud, the audience gasped. Meanwhile, cameras backstage caught Johansson’s reaction mouth open, clearly shocked.

Amitabh Bachchan buys prime land near Ram Mandir in Ayodhya for father’s memorial

Amitabh Bachchan has purchased a second plot of land in Ayodhya, this time a large 54,454 square foot piece, located roughly 10 kilometres from the newly consecrated Ram Mandir. The land was bought through the Harivansh Rai Bachchan Trust, an organisation set up by the actor in 2013 to honour his late father, the renowned poet Harivansh Rai Bachchan.

This latest purchase adds to Bachchan’s earlier investment in Ayodhya. In January 2024, he bought land in a premium township called Haveli Avadh for ₹4.54 crore. Reports suggest that property was meant for residential use. Now, sources indicate the newly acquired land could be developed into a memorial dedicated to his father’s life and literary legacy.

Stan Lee’s tragic final years: Shocking new documentary exposes elder abuse and exploitation

Stan Lee spent his life bringing superheroes to the world—Spider-Man, the X-Men, Iron Man, and so many more. But behind the joyful cameos and conventions, his last years were marked by serious exploitation. A new documentary, Stan Lee: The Final Chapter, talks about the dark, uncomfortable truth about what really happened.

The film is being put together by Jon Bolerjack, who worked closely with Lee during his final four years. Bolerjack wasn’t just an assistant; he was a witness to what many believe was the mishandling and manipulation of an ageing legend. According to Bolerjack, Lee was constantly pushed to sign memorabilia and make public appearances, despite his poor health. In video clips already shared, Lee appears exhausted while being shuffled between events.
