No direct-to-digital release for Chhalaang and Indoo Ki Jawani, both the films to hit the big screens?

Rajkummar Rao and Nushrat Bharucha starrer Chhalaang was slated to release on 12th June 2020 and Kiara Advani starrer Indoo Ki Jawani was scheduled to hit the screens on 5th June 2020. But due to the pandemic, the release of both the films has been stalled.

It was said that Indoo Ki Jawani and Chhalaang, both the movie will get a direct-to-digital release. However, according to a report in Mid-day, the makers are planning to release the film once the theatre reopens and also plans to release Indoo Ki Jawani on 2nd October 2020.


A source told the tabloid, "Now, the team is eyeing an October 2 release for the T-Series produced film. The discussions, however, are in the nascent stage as there is uncertainty about the reopening of cinemas. If all goes well, Chhalaang, which is presented by the studio, too will hit the marquee, though its release date has yet to be ascertained."

Well, it is said that once theatres reopen in India, initially producers and exhibitors are planning to rerun the past blockbuster movies. And now, it looks like if the theatres reopen soon, Indoo Ki Jawani would be one of the first ones to hit the big screens.

Meanwhile, both Kiara and Rajkummar will be having their other film releasing on the OTT platforms. While Kiara's Laxmmi Bomb releases on Disney+ Hotstar, Rao's Ludo will release on Netflix.

Priyanka Chopra becomes India's highest-paid actress with S S Rajamouli film

Priyanka Chopra Jonas is set to star in SS Rajamouli’s highly anticipated film, SSMB29, alongside Mahesh Babu, following the monumental success of RRR. Rajamouli’s next project, with a budget exceeding Rs. 1000 crore, is expected to be a massive cinematic experience, and fans are eagerly awaiting the fresh pairing of Mahesh Babu and Priyanka Chopra.

While excitement builds around the film's grand scale, another major talking point is Priyanka Chopra's reported remuneration for the project. The actress, known for her global appeal, is said to be charging a hefty Rs. 30 crore for SSMB29, making her the highest-paid actress in the Indian film industry. This has reportedly pushed Deepika Padukone, who was previously the highest-paid with a salary of Rs. 15 to 20 crore per film, into second place. Priyanka’s fee has surpassed Deepika’s by a significant margin.

"I didn't know what sexy meant": Jennifer Love Hewitt reflects on being sexualized as a teenager

Jennifer Love Hewitt recently reflected on her early years in Hollywood, revealing how she was sexualised as a teenager without fully understanding it at the time. In a candid conversation on Mayim Bialik’s 'Breakdown' podcast, the 45-year-old actress shared that at just 16, she was subjected to inappropriate comments from grown men about her body, particularly her breasts. These remarks were often made openly in interviews, which Hewitt now finds disturbing, given the context of her age.

Hewitt, who became famous after starring in I Know What You Did Last Summer in 1997, recalled how the attention on her physical appearance increased after she appeared on the cover of 'Maxim' in 1999. Men would approach her, mentioning how they took her magazine on trips, but at the time, she didn’t fully grasp the sexual undertones of these comments. “I didn’t know what that meant,” she admitted, adding that it felt strange to be labelled a sex symbol before even knowing what being "sexy" meant.
