Ranbir Kapoor to team up with Kabir Singh helmer?

Telugu filmmaker Sandeep Reddy Vanga is presently riding high on the riotous success of his recent release Kabir Singh (2019). Starring Shahid Kapoor and Kiara Advani in lead roles, the movie turned out to be the highest-grossing film of 2019. After the humongous success of his debut film in Bollywood, Sandeep Reddy Vanga is now, reportedly, gearing up to begin work on his next directorial venture.

Though nothing much is known about his project at the moment, a leading Indian publication reports that Vanga is likely to rope in Ranbir Kapoor for his next film. Bhushan Kumar of T-Series, who co-produced Kabir Singh in association with Cine1 Studios, will bankroll the untitled movie.


A source tells the publication that Sandeep and Bhushan Kumar met yesterday to discuss the logistics and casting. “Sandeep narrated a story idea to Bhushan, who has liked it and will produce the film. They met yesterday to discuss the logistics and casting.”

The source goes on to add that even Ranbir Kapoor has liked the idea and if he agrees to come onboard, the project will start rolling only after his other commitments are done. “Ranbir has liked the concept and they will be meeting this week to discuss it further. Of course, even if Ranbir gives the nod, they will not be able to roll immediately because he has to wrap up two films, Brahmastra and Shamshera, first and is committed to a third, Luv Ranjan’s next with Ajay (Devgn) and Deepika (Padukone), which is being produced by Luv and Bhushan.”

Ranbir Kapoor was last seen in Rajkumar Hirani’s Sanju (2018), a biopic on controversial Bollywood star Sanjay Dutt. The film did exceptionally well at the box-office, becoming Kapoor’s highest grosser to date.

The curse of Karan Johar: How Bollywood’s ‘star maker’ keeps failing newcomers

A LOT has been said about Karan Johar being a brilliant mastermind when it comes to launching new talent, including children of famous film stars.

While he deserves some credit for working with newcomers, Johar’s track record with aspiring actors is poor, and for many, it has turned out to be more of a curse than a blessing. A strong first film typically sets up a debutant for a solid career in cinema, but when it fails, the individual is often left swimming against the tide. This is exactly what has happened with Ibrahim Ali Khan, whose recently released disastrous debut movie Nadaaniyan has been a major setback.

Aamir Khan auditioned for ‘Laapataa Ladies’ but lost the role: Video goes viral!

Aamir Khan’s attempt to play a small-town cop in Kiran Rao’s Laapataa Ladies has sparked conversation among fans, thanks to a newly surfaced audition tape. The Bollywood star, who also produced the film, had initially hoped to take on the role of Sub-Inspector Shyam Manohar. However, director Kiran Rao ultimately chose Ravi Kishan for the part, a decision that many now agree was the right call.

The audition tape, shared on Aamir’s recently launched YouTube channel, Aamir Khan Talkies, shows the actor in a police uniform, chewing paan and trying out a rural accent. The video also includes bloopers, giving fans a insider view in to his efforts to embody the character. While Aamir is known for his dedication to roles, viewers were quick to point out that something felt off. Many felt his polished screen presence made him seem out of place as the rustic and rough-around-the-edges cop.
