SCOOP: Salman Khan and Sajid Nadiadwala’s Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali to undergo a title change

Seven years after their blockbuster, Kick, Salman Khan and Sajid Nadiadwala are reuniting on the comedy, Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali, directed by Farhad Samji. The film features Pooja Hegde as the female lead with Aayush Sharma and Zaheer Iqbal in key roles. Bollywood Hungama has exclusively learnt that Salman, Sajid and Farhad are in discussions to change the title of the film.

SCOOP Salman Khan and Sajid Nadiadwala’s Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali to undergo a title change

"They want to change the title from Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali and rename it. They are contemplating on several titles and a new one will be locked very soon," a trade source told Bollywood Hungama. "The real reason to change the title is to avoid any sort of controversy around the film's release. Both Salman and Sajid respect all religions, however, didn't want anyone to misconstrue their title Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali as something that makes fun of two festivals. Hence, the hunt is now on for a fresh title." 

Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali tells the story of a family that believes in the oneness of God. Apparently the source for the plot is Salman Khan’s own family. “His father is Muslim. His mother is Hindu. Helen Aunty is a Catholic. Salman’s family is a living example of communal amity. The film’s plot will be similar. It will portray the ups and downs in a family which celebrates both Eid and Diwali with equal fervour. It will be Salman’s homage to the enduring spirit of oneness and brotherhood, a counterpoint to the currently vitiated atmosphere in the country. Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali will take the cinematic experience back to the days of films like Yash Chopra’s Dharmputra and Dhool Ka Phool. It addresses the issue of Hindu-Muslim amity” says the source.

The much awaited film is slated to go on floors around the month of September this year, once Salman Khan is done with his on-going assignment, Yash Raj Film production, Tiger 3, with Maneesh Sharma as the director. In other news, his next film, Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai, is all confirmed for an Eid 2021 opening in cinema halls as also the digital world on pay per view format. The trailer as well as the first song, ‘Seeti Maar’, has got good viewership on YouTube.

Right after Radhe, he will bring on the Mahesh Manjrekar film, Antim: The Final Truth, which stars him as a Sikh Cop and Aayush as a gangster.

The biggies that were patiently awaiting their chance in movie theatres have one by one by one decided to shift loyalties to the digital platform. The latest on that front is director Ranjit Tiwari's period thriller Bellbottom featuring Akshay Kumar in the lead. The producers Nikkil Advani and Pooja Entertainment had categorically denied any plans to opt for the digital option. And the film was poised for a theatrical release.

"It is being considered," Nikkhil Advani confirms Bellbottom’s direct-to-OTT

But now seeing the way the Covid crisis is heading, chances of Bellbottom keeping its 28 May release date in movie theatres seems impossible. The film is now being sold to Disney+ Hotstar for an early digital premiere. Confirming this development, producer Nikkil Advani says, “I believe it is being considered. But the final monetizing lies with Pooja Entertainment.”

Interestingly this is Disney-Hotstar’s second premium acquisition featuring Akshay Kumar. Laxmii which was acquired at an astronomical amount had a disastrous premiere on Disney+ Hotstar on November 2020.

Same-sex marriage called off in Ekta Kapoor’s series His Storry

Same-sex marriage called off in Ekta Kapoor’s series His Storry

As per plans, the gay couple in the new series His Storyy played by Satyadeep Mishra and Mrinal Dutt were supposed to get married at the end of Season 1 which started streaming this week. The marriage was called off. And here is why: the producers Alt-Balaji and DING got cold feet about showing a same-sex marriage.

Same-sex marriage called off in Ekta Kapoor’s series His Storry

One of the actors tells me, “Considering the way things are at the moment in our country I am relieved that marriage didn’t actually happen. The plan was to end season 1 with a Big Fat wedding showing Kunal (Satydeep Mishra) and Preet (Mrinal Dutt) tying the knot. But I think the producers chickened out, at least for this season.”

Apparently the marriage may happen in Season 2, provided the atmosphere of intolerance that prevails in the country, dims down. “Otherwise Season 2 may not happen at all,” informs the actor.

His Storyy is the coming-out story of Kunal (Satyadeep Mishra) happily married to Sakshi (Priyamani) for twenty years when Kunal comes out gay with a food blogger Preet (Mrinal Dutt).

Praise has been conferred on the series for its tasteful aesthetic presentation of a sensitive subject. It’s a pity that the makers had to pull back at the last minute leaving the same-sex couple’s relationship without the marital culmination that it deserves.

Some 10 days back, the industry, trade and fans got a jolt as the makers of Radhe - Your Most Wanted Bhai revealed that their film would be releasing in cinemas as well as on ZeePlex. Soon, the trailer was out and then the producers wasted no time in releasing their first song, ‘Seeti Maar’, on April 26. While a section of netizens felt that the original song, featuring Allu Arjun and Pooja Hegde was better, many gave the recreated version thumbs up. The song, featuring Salman Khan and Disha Patani, also amassed more than 50 million views in 3 days which proved that the song has become a rage.

Out of the 4 songs in Radhe - Your Most Wanted Bhai, 2 are sung by Iulia Vantur

Today, the second song of Radhe - Your Most Wanted Bhai, 'Dil De Diya', would release. It features Salman along with Jacqueline Fernandez. Meanwhile, the next song, ‘Zoom Zoom’, is expected to be out next week and it has now come to light that just like ‘Seeti Maar’, the third track of the film is also sung by Iulia Vantur. A source says, “There are 4 songs in the album. While ‘Seeti Maar’ is sung by Kamaal Khan and Iulia Vantur, ‘Zoom Zoom’ is crooned by Ash King and Iulia. So out of four songs in Radhe - Your Most Wanted Bhai, two songs are sung by Iulia.” 'Dil De Diya', meanwhile, has Kamaal Khan and Payal Dev as singers.

‘Zoom Zoom’ is composed by Sajid-Wajid. Sajid in an interview around 2 weeks back said that Iulia Vantur has improved a lot as a singer. He said that it is wrong to assume that she is being promoted by Salman Khan and that she puts in a lot of effort. He revealed that earlier, they had to work with her for 6-7 hours to correct each note. But for the ‘Zoom Zoom’ track, she managed to record the song in just 30 minutes.

Last year, when the Coronavirus pandemic began to spread its wings across the country, a large number of Bollywood films decided to skip theatrical release. With theatres being asked to shut, many producers didn’t find it feasible to keep holding the film’s release. Hence, they decided to not add to the rising costs and took refuge on OTT. But as time passed, the cases began to reduce and cinemas also began to open and even record good occupancy. As a result, a lot of filmmakers got the confidence to opt for a theatrical release first. Sadly, a handful of films came in cinemas and then once again, the cases began to increase. Theatres once again downed shutters. And once again, the producers are getting tempted to get into the OTT bandwagon.

Akshay Kumar’s Bellbottom to premiere on Disney+ Hotstar; sold for a whopping amount

A week ago, the producers of Radhe - Your Most Wanted Bhai surprised one and all as they decided to release the Salman Khan-starrer on Eid in cinemas as well as on a pay-per-view platform, ZeePlex. And now, the trade is abuzz that the upcoming biggie, Bellbottom, starring Akshay Kumar, will premiere on digital. A source informed Bollywood Hungama, “Bellbottom will premiere on Disney+ Hotstar. The makers have agreed to the financials being offered. They feel it’s a practical decision since the theatres would not open anytime soon. The makers and Hotstar team are now deciding when to release this film.”

Bollywood Hungama in January 2021 was the first one to report that Bellbottom makers are in talks with Amazon Prime for a direct-to-digital release. The source adds, “The producers then were toying with the idea of going on OTT directly, and also wanted to gauge the market price of the film. But as cinemas were allowed 100% occupancy in February and more and more producers announced the release dates of their films, Bellbottom makers decided to follow suit.” If the second wave had not caused havoc, it would have released in cinemas on May 28, that is, two weeks after Radhe - Your Most Wanted Bhai.

The source further reveals, “Amazon Prime was still interested in buying the film. But it is being said that Disney+ Hotstar had a better offer and thus won the coveted deal.”

Bellbottom will be the second consecutive film of Akshay Kumar after Laxmii (2020) that will premiere on an OTT platform. Coincidentally, Laxmii was also premiered on Disney+ Hotstar. A trade expert says, “It is possible that Disney+ Hotstar paid a bomb for Bellbottom. Akshay Kumar is a crowd-puller and Bellbottom looks like a slick thriller. It’s sure to generate a lot of craze upon its release.”

Bellbottom also stars Vaani Kapoor, Lara Dutta, Huma S Qureshi and Adil Hussain. Directed by Ranjit M Tewari, it was one of the first Bollywood films to be shot amid the Coronavirus pandemic.

Sonakshi Sinha's next digital project Bulbul Tarang to be based on dowry

Sonakshi Sinha's digital debut Fallen is yet to release but the actress has already signed two more online projects. While one of them is a show titled Heera Mandi under Sanjay Leela Bhansali's banner, the other is a web film called Bulbul Tarang. Toilet - Ek Prem Katha fame director Shree Narayan Singh is set to direct it.

Sonakshi Sinha's next digital project Bulbul Tarang to be based on dowry

Only this bit of news was out: about Sonakshi signing Shree's next. But not many know what the film is about. A source informed Bollywood Hungama, "It's a social drama majorly in the satire zone that revolves around dowry and the horrific implications of the same. Sonakshi plays a carefree happy-go-lucky girl from a small town who sets out to bring a change and reform the social prejudices that exist in her town and community. It's a coming of age film and when Sonakshi was approached for the same, the actress loved the script and her role. The whole idea touched her heart and she immediately said yes to the same."

Sonakshi also has Bhuj - The Pride of India lined up for a digital release, and it needs to be seen if that would be her web debut (in case it releases before Fallen but it wasn't planned as a web project though). The source adds, "The modalities have been worked out. The team is waiting for the Covid restrictions to ease out a bit and then lock dates for the shoot. It will mostly be shot somewhere in UP."

Shahid Kapoor is one busy man. After Jersey and Raj and DK's next, Shahid was supposed to work on Shashank Khaitan's Yoddha but he walked out of the film at the last minute. He was also in talks for several other films, including the Hindi remake of Surarai Pottru, a Ram Madhvani film and the big budgeted Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra directorial Karna. Now, we can tell you that although he's making his digital debut on Amazon Prime Video, he has inked a huge deal with Netflix as well.

A source informed Bollywood Hungama, "Shahid has been paid to the tune of over Rs. 70-80 crore for a trilogy that he's going to star in. It's a period mythological war saga that will be adapted from Amish Tripathi's novel. Not just that, this will also mark Shahid's foray into production."

He had been waiting to set up his own production house for some time. "Shahid was almost kick-starting his own banner with the Dingko Singh biopic but it fell apart. Now, Netflix and he have signed a mutual agreement on this project. It will most likely feature him and is going to be an ambitious period venture designed on the lines of a Baahubali but only for the web. This will also be another mythological project for him after Karna."

Actress Gal Gadot is reuniting with the producers of Wonder Woman, Charles Roven, and Richard Suckle, for an upcoming sci-fi romance movie based on Catriona Silvey’s debut novel, "Meet Me in Another Life".

According to Deadline, Gal Gadot and Jaron Varsano’s production label Pilot Wave and Atlas Entertainment have acquired the rights of the novel to develop into a feature film with Gadot as the headliner. “Catriona’s characters are beautifully explored and deeply complex – their reincarnations sometimes bordering on taboo – that the payoff of their self-discovery feels genuine and earned,” said Gadot and Varsano in a statement to Deadline. “We’re thrilled to partner with Chuck Roven and Richard Suckle to bring this story with many layers on the big screen.”

According to HarperCollins, the novel revolves around, "Thora and Santi who are strangers in a foreign city when a chance encounter intertwines their fates. At once, they recognize in each other a kindred spirit—someone who shares their insatiable curiosity, who is longing for more in life than the cards they’ve been dealt. Only days later, though, a tragic accident cuts their story short. But this is only one of the many connections they share. Like satellites trapped in orbit around each other, Thora and Santi are destined to meet again: as a teacher and brilliant student; a caretaker and dying patient; a cynic and believer. In alternating realities, they become friends, colleagues, lovers, and enemies. As blurred memories and strange patterns compound, Thora and Santi come to a shocking revelation—they must discover the truth of their mysterious attachment before their many lives come to one, final end. By turns joyful, devastating, and quietly profound, Meet Me in Another Life is a spectacularly compelling page-turner filled with astonishing twists that affirms the power of love to connect us beyond time and space."

Meanwhile, Gal Gadot is awaiting the release of Death on the Nile and Netflix thriller Red Notice.

Game Of Thrones star Natalie Dormer quietly welcomes a baby girl with longtime partner David Oakes

During the That’s After Life podcast, she revealed, “It’s the perfect thing to do during a pandemic — get pregnant, have a baby. I feel like I’m probably being a bit of a cliché, she’ll probably be sitting in a bar in 30 years’ time one day going, ‘Yeah, I’m a COVID baby.’”

“She’s just three months and she’s an absolute joy, I’m never going to complain about shooting hours ever again because sleep deprivation is something else,” she said during the interview. “People say, ‘Your whole perspective on life will change, and your whole set of value system’ and you sort of roll your eyes and go ‘Yeah, yeah’ — and then you have one and you go, ‘Oh. Wow!’”

She further added, “I’m in love. I’m absolutely in love, she’s a joy. Sleep has always been quite important to me — that’s the only downside, but you know nature is so clever, the hormones kick in.”

Natalie Dormer played the role of Margery Tyrell in Game Of Thrones. She was last seen in Penny Dreadful.
