Actress Nikita Dutta, who rose to fame after playing the female lead in the Sony Entertainment Television show Ek Duje Ke Vaaste, has been signed on to essay an important role in T-Series Films’ forthcoming movie Kabir Singh.

Headlined by Shahid Kapoor and Kiara Advani, Kabir Singh is an official remake of hit Telugu-language movie Arjun Reddy (2017), one of the most successful films of the year gone by. Its remake mounted the shooting floor in October in Mumbai.

From what we hear portions featuring Nikita will be shot in Mumbai before Shahid Kapoor and Kiara Advani head off to Delhi and Mussoorie to complete other important sequences. Talking about Dutta’s character in the movie, a source close to the unit says, “Nikita’s character helps Shahid’s Kabir deal with depression after his break-up with girlfriend Preeti”.

Kabir Singh is being helmed by filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga, who also directed the original Telugu film. It is jointly produced by Bhushan Kumar, Ashwin Varde and Murad Khetani.

The film is set to hit screens on 21st May, 2019.

Shah Rukh Khan charges more than Salman Khan for concerts, says Australian event organisers

Bollywood actors have long been known to earn substantial fees for live performances and international events, particularly those aimed at the Indian diaspora. According to Australian event organisers Pace D and Bikram Singh Randhawa, some of the industry's biggest stars not only draw larger crowds abroad but also command higher fees than their contemporaries.

Speaking to YouTuber Siddharth Kannan, the organisers shed light on the dynamics of Bollywood celebrities performing in Australia. When asked which star between Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan charges more for a live show in the country, they stated that Shah Rukh Khan is the higher-paid of the two. “The moment he spreads his arms, half the country’s population will just fall over,” they said, referring to Shah Rukh’s signature pose and immense popularity, especially among women. The organisers noted that the actor enjoys a strong female fan base in Australia, which significantly adds to his market value for such events.
