Ayan Mukerji’s Brahmastra has been in the making for the past few years. The release date of the movie has been postponed multiple times, and then earlier this year, the pandemic became a hurdle for the movie.


A few days ago, it was reported that the makers are planning to resume the shoot in November, and well, according to a report in Mumbai Mirror, Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, Nagarjuna, and Mouni Roy resumed the shooting of the film on Monday in Mumbai. It will be a 10-day schedule and later in January, Ayan will shot for two songs with Ranbir and Alia.

A source told the tabloid, “It’s a conscious decision to reserve the songs for next year because Ayan wants to shoot them on a grand scale with lots of background dancers. The team is optimistic that the on-ground scenario will improve by then. At the same time, they are exploring other mediums without compromising on the visuals.”

Well, it is said that during the lockdown Ayan was working on the VFX and the editing of the film. A few days ago, an entertainment portal had reported that Fox Star Studios, who is co-producing the film with Karan Johar, wants the run-time of the movie to be cut short by 30 minutes. Reportedly, the run time of the film’s rough cut was nearly three hours.

Brahmastra also stars Amitabh Bachchan and Gurfateh Pirzada. Earlier, this year the makers had announced that the film will release on 4th December 2020. But the new release date is yet to be announced.

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.
