Ranveer Singh in talks to play Indian superhero Nagraj

Ranveer Singh is capable of pulling off every character with utmost ease. Be it playing a Maratha warrior in Bajirao Mastani (2015), Sultan Alauddin Khilji in Padmaavat (2018) or a street-rapper in Gully Boy (2019), Singh becomes the character that he decides to play on screen.

Currently busy with Yash Raj Films’ Jayeshbhai Jordaar, Ranveer Singh is in early negotiations to play the role of the iconic Indian superhero Nagraj in a silver screen adaptation of the cult comic book series. Filmmaker Karan Johar is also in talks to produce the film under Dharma Productions.


Confirming the development, Manoj Gupta, President of publisher Raj Comics, said, “We are in talks with Ranveer Singh and Karan Johar for a live-action silver-screen adaptation of Nagraj. While nothing is inked so far, things are looking positive.”

The character of Nagraj was created in the late 1980s by Sanjay Gupta and published by Raj Comics. It has gained a cult following over the years. “When we created Nagraj, we never imagined that it would attract such a wide fan following across India and we all are happy that finally a Nagraj movie is taking shape,” Gupta said in conclusion.

Meanwhile, Ranveer Singh is about to begin the first schedule of his next film Jayeshbhai Jordaar. He will soon start preparing for Dharma Productions’ much-awaited film Takht, which Karan Johar is set to direct.

Also featuring Kareena Kapoor Khan, Vicky Kaushal, Alia Bhatt, Anil Kapoor, Bhumi Pednekar and Janhvi Kapoor in central characters, the historical drama is set to begin production towards the end of February. In April, Ranveer Singh will enter theatres with his hotly anticipated sports film ’83, directed by Kabir Khan.

Nick Jonas says it's 'scary' to imagine daughter Malti in showbiz after what he and Priyanka faced

Nick Jonas is no stranger to fame. From performing on Broadway as a child to becoming one-third of the Jonas Brothers, he’s spent most of his life under the spotlight. His wife, Priyanka Chopra, entered the world of glamour as a teenager, winning Miss World at 18 before making it big in Bollywood and then Hollywood. So, it’s only natural that people are curious whether their daughter, Malti Marie, might follow in their footsteps.

During a recent appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show, Nick opened up about the possibility. When asked whether he’d be okay with his daughter getting into the entertainment industry at a young age, he paused before saying it’s a decision she’ll have to make herself. While three-year-old Malti already enjoys singing, Nick admitted that the idea of her stepping into such a demanding field so early is unsettling.

Akshay Kumar tells King Charles to watch Kesari 2: “You’ll know why the British should say sorry”

Akshay Kumar isn’t asking for an apology. He just wants the British to look back and really see what happened. With his upcoming film Kesari Chapter 2 hitting screens on April 18, the actor is urging both the UK government and King Charles to watch the film and confront a dark chapter in colonial history.

The film, directed by Karan Singh Tyagi and based on The Case That Shook the Empire by Raghu and Pushpa Palat, tells the story of C. Sankaran Nair, a Malayali lawyer who took legal action against General Dyer and the British government after the Jallianwala Bagh massacre of 1919. The massacre when British troops opened fire on a peaceful crowd remains one of the most horrific events of British rule in India.
