Celebrating her birthday, Subhash K Jha turns the spotlight on the iconic Kajol, star of many brilliant films who is still going strong on reel and in real.

Tanuja was the spirited spontaneous embodiment of raw talent. So is her elder daughter Kajol who is to contemporary mainstream cinema what Jaya Bhaduri used to be the 1970s: effortlessly natural and unheedful of what the the mirror had to say. The glamorous avatar that we see now is a product of Manish Malhotra and Karan Johar’s influence. The two would incessantly remind Kajol that stars don’t dress and behave like…well, like Kajol.

She is one of her kind. Whenever Kajol is in the room her voice is heard above all other sounds.She is the din diva and the djinn that comes out of the bottle every time she lights up the screen.Kajol loves...

One of Bollywood’s most iconic romantic thrillers, Fanaa (2006), is remembered for the intense chemistry between Aamir Khan and Kajol. But did you know that Hrithik Roshan was originally offered the lead role—long before Aamir stepped in?

Yes, the charming and versatile Hrithik was director Kunal Kohli’s first choice to play the enigmatic terrorist, Rehan, who falls in love with a blind girl, played by Kajol. The revelation has surprised many fans, especially those who couldn’t imagine anyone else but Aamir in that layered role.

Why Did Hrithik Say No?

According to reports, Hrithik politely turned down the offer due to creative differences. At the time, he was riding high on the success of his action-packed roles and may not have been convinced about playing a romantic character with grey shades.

Director Kunal Kohli recently confirmed in an interview that although Hrithik was his top pick, things didn’t materialize.

The 71st National Film Awards brought a wave of celebration across Bollywood, especially for Shah Rukh Khan, who clinched his first-ever National Award in his 33-year acting career. King Khan was honoured with the Best Actor award for his performance in Jawan, a film that turned out to be a critical and commercial success.

He shared the honour with Vikrant Massey, who was also named Best Actor for his powerful portrayal in 12th Fail. Meanwhile, Rani Mukerji took home the Best Actress award for Mrs. Chatterjee vs Norway.

Ar Rahman Calls Shah Rukh Khan a “Legend”

Soon after the winners were announced on the evening of August 1, fans and fellow celebrities flooded social media with congratulatory messages. Among the first to respond was music maestro Ar Rahman, who has himself won the National Award multiple times.

Prithviraj Sukumaran, Ibrahim Ali Khan, and Kajol have managed to bring the second biggest debut for a film on Ott. However, it is the biggest debut week viewership for an original film on Ott other than Netflix. Surpassing every single Hindi film of 2025 except for Kesari Chapter 2, it is roaring with its numbers!

Dharma Productions rule the Ott game owning the top two spots for the biggest debut for a non-Netflix film. Kesari Chapter 2, was a theatrical to Ott release, with a viewership of 5.7 million. This is followed by Ibrahim Ali Khan and Prithviraj’s film, which is also produced by Dharma Productions.

Sarzameen, in its debut week, garnered a lukewarm viewership of 4.5 million, taking the top spot in the list of the most-watched streaming originals in India...

Sacrifice and patriotism go hand in hand. For those who choose to serve their nation in uniform, the country’s security becomes their highest priority. Family, friends, and personal ties take a backseat, because soldiers are trained to let go of all attachments when duty calls. It’s a path defined by unwavering commitment, where personal loss is often the price of national service. Over the past decade, Bollywood has explored a wide range of stories featuring army officers, commandos, and undercover agents. But JioHotstar’s latest drama-thriller, Sarzameen, tries to tell the story of a soldier prepared to risk everything in the line of duty and its consequences in his personal life. Blending high-intensity action with an old-school Bollywood flair, Sarzameen brings together a compelling cast of actors, whose performances we’re here to discuss.

Ibrahim Ali Khan as Harman/Haris

Bollywood royalty Ibrahim Ali Khan had an abysmal...

Honest truth? Kayoze Irani’s feature-film debut is not as unwatchable as what the reviews tell you. We are living in the era of pavlovian responses: if one critic likes a film blatantly ripped off from a Korean tearjerker, everyone else roars in approval.

It is like being hypnotized at a rock stadium. We will, we will… shock you! Sarzameen tries very hard to shock. And that is where it goes wrong. It tries too hard. You cannot have twists in the plot which make no sense just because they will make the audience gasp. It is like designating Kajol the killer in Gupt.

I mention Kajol with a reason. She is the mother of a radicalized Kashmiri boy, who is married to an army officer named Vijay Menon, primarily to justify Prithviraj’s South Indian accent. Early in their “happily married” life, there are signs of friction as their speech-impaired son Harman feels neglected.

Sarzameen arrives with big ambitions — emotional drama, national identity, family conflict, and the scenic yet sensitive backdrop of Kashmir. Directed by debutant Kayoze Irani, and starring Prithviraj Sukumaran, Kajol, and Ibrahim Ali Khan, the film sets out to be bold and emotional. Sadly, what unfolds is a visually rich yet narratively flat experience.

Story: A Promising Concept That Never Fully Lands

The story follows Vijay Menon (Prithviraj Sukumaran), a stern Army officer, and his troubled son Harman (Ibrahim Ali Khan). Harman suffers from a speech stammer and feels emotionally neglected by his father. His life takes a dark turn when he’s kidnapped by a Kashmiri extremist outfit. The experience transforms him — mentally and ideologically.

But when Harman returns, he’s not the same boy. This internal and external conflict — between father and son, between ideology and identity — should’ve been the film’s core strength. Instead, the writing remains surface-level and misses emotional nuance,...

Son Of Sardaar 2 Box Office Potential! ( Photo Credit – YouTube )

Exactly 3 months after Raid 2, Ajay Devgn is returning to the big screens. Son Of Sardaar 2, co-starring Mrunal Thakur, is releasing in theatres worldwide on August 1, 2025. Back in 2022, the Bollywood superstar delivered his last comedy film, which was a flop. Will history repeat itself? Scroll below for a detailed analysis.

Son Of Sardaar 2 is facing low pre-release buzz

The songs garnered a favorable response, but the mixed reviews of the official trailer spoiled the party. Son Of Sardaar 2 is less than a week away from its theatrical release, but there’s barely any buzz. Saiyaara is currently all Bollywood buffs are talking about, so things don’t look very good.

Even if one considers the BookMyShow interests, Ajay Devgn starrer has registered 105.6K likes. It is way behind War 2 with 205.8K interests, which is releasing on August 14, 2025, almost 2 weeks later.

Yrf-backed musical romantic drama is made on a budget of 45 crores, which means it has already emerged as a massive success at the box office, earning almost 4X the profits in a week.

There were firecrackers and festival-like celebrations outside theatres, especially in the Telugu states. Looking at the advance booking trends, it was clear that no matter how the content is, the film will pull off a roaring day 1 collection solely due to the actor’s stardom. Now that the numbers have come, let’s find out how it opened at the worldwide box office.

The Tollywood period action drama enjoyed a superb response in the premiere shows scheduled on Wednesday (July 23). As per Sacnilk, it earned a staggering 12.7 crores at the Indian box office through premieres. Yesterday, on day 1, it enjoyed a solid 57% occupancy and amassed 32 crores. Overall, the film registered the opening of 44.7 crore net in India.

Maa enjoyed almost a month-long run in theatres

The pre-release hype was humongous, but unfortunately, the content did not live upto the expectations. Owing to the same, Vishal Furia’s directorial slowed down after a fantastic opening weekend. In 29 days, Maa earned 38.63 crore net in India. Including taxes, the gross earnings concluded at 45.58 crores.

The ticket windows have been congested with the arrival of Sitaare Zameen Par, Maalik, Metro In Dino, and now Saiyaara. It was clearly a case of survival of the fittest, and Maa did not attract enough footfall.

Ahaan Panday, the nephew of actor Chunky Panday and cousin of Ananya Panday, has officially entered Bollywood with a promising debut in Yash Raj Films’ latest release Saiyaara. Despite initial trolling on social media over a viral clip mimicking Shah Rukh Khan, Ahaan’s performance is receiving appreciation, and the film is performing exceptionally at the box office.

According to industry reports, Saiyaara has collected over ₹150 crore globally within just six days of its release, surpassing Salman Khan’s action thriller Sikandar in the process. Directed by Mohit Suri, the romantic drama has emerged as one of the biggest surprises of the year.

In addition to Saiyaara’s success, several developments made headlines across Bollywood on July 22:

Genre cinema can be incredibly transgressive. Like termite art, they mutely chew on the boundaries of conformation. In horror, courtroom drama, noir, murder mysteries, and many more, the director is paramount for these films. How they treat it saves a good genre film from being generic, which most certainly holds true for murder mysteries. Plots in these films are like the foundation, invisible, and pretty similar in nature. However, the material used to construct the building on this foundation is the treatment. The foundation can and should be strong enough to hold the building, but what the audience would buy is the building.

The functionality of atmosphere, mood, pace, suspense, cinematography, lighting, and brain-teasing tension plays a much larger part in a murder mystery. Without these, we just have a story where we’re waiting for the big reveal. More often than not, the lack of slick treatment gives us a generic mystery.

Akshay Kumar: Bollywood player Kumar has shocked everyone by referring to one thing. Who everyone wants to know, after all, what is Akshay getting scared of, in fact, the actor has told about his fear through a post.

It may be sacrilegious to say this. But Ddlj in my humble opinion is hardly the stuff classics are made of. It had its moments of glory…Oh yes! But a repeatedly recycled classic? Nah! That’s going too far. Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania (Hskd) takes the Raj and Simran characters, shakes and stirs them and turns them on their head. Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt, two...

The music seems decent and it does elevate the...
