The film Salman Khan’s planning for Eid 2020 isn’t Veteran remake?

Ever since the news of Salman Khan opting out of celebrated filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s much-talked-about film Inshallah emerged, diehard fans of the superstar have been eagerly awaiting to know as to which movie Khan is planning to release on Eid 2020.

According to some industry insiders, Salman Khan is indeed having his date with theatres on Eid next year. He himself had tweeted the same a couple of days ago. However, the question still remains the same: Which film Khan is planning to release during the festival of Eid 2020.


Speculations of Kick 2 and the remake of popular South Korean crime-drama Veteran (2015) to be his next have been doing the rounds ever since Inshallah got shelved. Recently, filmmaker Sajid Nadiadwala confirmed that Kick 2 will not be ready for a release next year. Also, since no work on the adaptation of Veteran has begun yet, there is no chance the film will be able to enter cinemas next year.

A source in the know tells an Indian publication, "Atul Agnihotri owns the remake rights of Korean film Veteran and there has been talks about Salman working in the film. But the project which Salman Khan is planning for Eid 2020 is not the Veteran remake. Salman and Atul Agnihotri plan to collaborate but it is not happening right now. Salman is planning a completely different project for Eid 2020."

The source goes on to reveal that the forthcoming film will be an all-out action extravaganza and Salman will be seen performing high-octane action sequences in it. An official announcement is highly awaited.

The superstar, meanwhile, is looking forward to the release of his hugely anticipated movie Dabangg 3. Directed by Prabhudeva, the cop-drama also features Sonakshi Sinha and Kichcha Sudeep in principal roles. Produced by Salman Khan Films and Arbaaz Khan, Dabangg 3 is slated to buzz into theatres on 20th December 2020.

Aimee Lou Wood criticises SNL’s ‘White Potus’ parody for mocking her teeth

Aimee Lou Wood, star of The White Lotus, recently found herself at the centre of controversy after a parody of her character aired on Saturday Night Live (SNL). The skit, a political spoof titled The White Potus, humorously exaggerated aspects of the show, but for Wood, it went too far. Comedian Sarah Sherman impersonated Wood's character, Chelsea, with oversized prosthetic teeth. For Aimee Lou, this portrayal hit a nerve, and she openly criticised it.

Taking to Instagram, the actress expressed her discontent, calling the parody “mean and unfunny.” She argued that while she understood SNL was known for satire, the skit could have been executed with more sophistication and less cheap humour. Wood, who has always been open about her unique appearance, especially her noticeable gap teeth, clarified that she doesn't mind caricatures or playful jabs, but felt this one crossed a line. “I have big gap teeth, not bad teeth,” she wrote, pointing out that the entire joke seemed to target her appearance rather than the content of the skit.

As the drummers pounded out fierce rhythms, Hanumankind launched into Run It Up, his latest hit and the crowd packed with both die-hard fans and curious newcomers, went wild.

Katy Perry, Lauren Sánchez, and Gayle King soar to space in a historic all-women Blue Origin flight

On Monday morning, six women including pop icon Katy Perry boarded a Blue Origin rocket in West Texas and took off on a short flight to space. The crew spent just over 10 minutes on the journey, experiencing those minutes of weightlessness before they safely returned to Earth.

What made this flight stand out, though, wasn’t just the celebrity presence. This was the first time in over six decades that an all-women team flew to space together. The last time anything close happened was in 1963, when Valentina Tereshkova became the first woman to orbit Earth, alone, on a Soviet mission.
