<p>&nbsp;</p><p>The birthday appearance on Monday stood out because it came from Ranbir's new home, adding a fresh touch to the annual celebrations surrounding the actor.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Unlike several Bollywood stars who regularly greet fans from outside their homes on special occasions, Ranbir has generally kept such public appearances limited, making the balcony interaction particularly notable for those waiting to see him.</p><h2>Alia wishes the ‘cutie’</h2><p>Alia Bhatt took to Instagram on Monday evening to wish her husband. Images of their personal moments were shared on the social media with Alia captioning them as ‘HBD Cutie’. In the first image, Ranbir can be seen sitting on Alia’s lap as she hugs him. Another image shows Ranbir holding their baby daughter Raha and smiling for the camera. Alia and Ranbir’s wedding reception photo was also added to the carousel, along with a photo from the sets of Brahmastra, where the two first started dating.</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

Ramayana Part 1 might release a day earlier than planned. Nitish Tiwari’s directorial, featuring Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi, Yash and Ravi Dubey, was earlier scheduled to release on November 6, but now, recent reports claim that the makers will release the film on November 5. If the new date gets locked, the makers are expected to make an official announcement soon. A source close to the film told Bollywood Hungama that, “The makers of Ramayana have now decided to release their labour of love on Thursday, November 5. Also, this time, the plan is to release it across the world, that is, in India as well as overseas, on the same day. The stakeholders are more or less on board with this new release date. If it gets final approval, the makers will make an official announcement.” The film's makers are ramping up promotional efforts as the release date approaches, offering fans a deeper look at the main cast through a new series of character posters. One poster showcases Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram, Sai Pallavi as Sita, and Ravie Dubey as Lakshman against a forest backdrop. A second poster focuses on Yash as Ravana, highlighting the antagonist's imposing and regal look.

<h2>WION's review of The Vvaan</h2><p>In <i>WION’s </i>review, Pargati Awasthi writes, "With the amount of money invested in the film, the camera work and production design make the movie look grand and visually polished, whether it’s the tiger sequences or the ghost portions. The scale is evident on screen, and technically, the film creates moments of spectacle that briefly lift the otherwise wafer-thin narrative. In the first half, the combination of mythology with folklore genuinely excites the curious viewer. But soon, as the layers of the story start to unravel, all that remains is melodrama. Malhotra truly carries the film with his performance and does everything he possibly could for it, and so do the other actors. Tamannaah brings her charm, but her role is limited."</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It further concludes, "In brief, Vvaan is very much an Ekta Kapoor Tulsi Virani world, in which Sidharth has made his debut as the divine hero, but he can’t save this film with his looks."</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Also Read: </strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bollywood/sidharth-malhotra-tamannaah-bhatia-meet-bihar-cm-samrat-choudhary-ahead-of-the-vvaan-release-see-pics-1789889415263"><strong>Sidharth, Tamannaah meet Bihar CM Samrat Choudhary ahead of The Vvaan release</strong></a></p><h2>About The Vvaan: Force of the Forrest</h2><p>Directed by Deepak Kumar Mishra, <i>Vvaan: Force of the Forrest</i> is a fantasy folklore thriller that hit theatres on Friday, September 25.

<p>He further highlighted that Mushtaq Khan dedicated nearly 50 years of his life to the film industry, yet none of these prominent stars could spare even 50 minutes to attend his final journey. "Yes, but if this were the wedding of an industrialist’s son, they would not only attend but also serve the wedding guests as if they were waiters. Or if there’s a political party that requires their presence, they would definitely be there. But they did not pay their last respects to a man who gave 50 years of his life to the film industry. He gave his whole life, and yet you couldn’t give him 50 minutes."</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Also Read: </strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bollywood/news-welcome-actor-mushtaq-khan-was-tortured-for-12-hours-by-kidnappers-is-now-safe-783121"><strong>Welcome actor Mushtaq Khan tortured for 12 hours by kidnappers</strong></a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>"He reached this point only through the strength of his work. He didn’t need you in his life, nor will he need you in his death. But there will be the regret that there’s no star Mushtaq Khan hasn’t worked with, and yet nobody came to meet him one last time," Murad further added, warning Bollywood stars that their names, fame, and money could fade one day.</p>

<h3>'I made this film for kids': Hanuman Ansh director at WION Iconic Tourism Summit</h3><p>At the WION Iconic Tourism Summit and Awards 2026 in New Delhi on Sep 23, Hanuman Ansh director Dr Vishal Chaturvedi spoke about the film's unexpected blockbuster run as he revealed that he made the movie for kids.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Speaking at WION's summit ''So I guess I saw that a lot of people are going to watch it. Most probably everyone in India will watch it. That was the dream. That was the wish. And that was the feeling also that one day this film will be watched by each Indian, each and every Indian living across the world.And I guess that's happening very early.

Directed by Vishal Chaturvedi, the movie was released on Aug 7 and today completes 50 days in theatres. Based on the life of revered saint Neem Karoli Baba, the film is currently playing across the world. 

Hanuman Ansh has created nothing short of a miracle in theatres. Made on a budget of Rs 2 crore, the film has completed 50 days in theatres and has become the audience's first choice, outperforming major releases such as Yash's Toxic, Akshay Kumar's Haiwaan and even Mirzapur: The Movie. At the time of its release, the film's name was nowhere, and no one was even aware of it, but now it is all over social media, with its song 'Parvati' trending and even charting on the charts, just below Shakira. Even PM Narendra Modi was seen enjoying the song and singing at a bhajan clubbing event in Delhi, where he watched Sadhu Tiwari performing the song live. Hanuman Ansh's 50 days at the box office: Here's how much the movie has earned Directed by Vishal Chaturvedi, the movie was released on Aug 7 and today completes 50 days in theatres. Based on the life of revered saint Neem Karoli Baba, the film is currently playing across the world. On Day 50, Hanuman Ansh collected a net of ₹3.35 Cr across 3,767 shows, taking the collections to ₹344.35 Cr and total India net collections to ₹291.53 Cr so far, as per Sacnilk. Overseas, the film's total gross stands at ₹37.00 Cr so far. This pushes its worldwide gross collection to ₹381.35 Cr. What started with 355 shows on the day of release has grown to over 3,000 shows on Day 50. The film has truly gone beyond imagination. PM Modi enjoys 'Parvati' at a Delhi event PM Narendra Modi was seen enjoying Sadhu Tiwari's performance of ‘Jab Zid Par Aa Gayi Parvati’ from Hanuman Ansh.

Kriti Sanon breaks silence on patriarchy amid Jamui assault case: ‘It’s not Men vs Women’

<p>Kunal Kemmu's Vibe is out in theatres and is doing outstandingly well at the box office. This time, Kemmu wears three hats- director, writer, and actor- and delivers one of the most entertaining films of the year.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>After the film's release, WION caught up with him to talk about its success, his journey behind the camera, and the stories behind some of its funniest moments. He was also asked about Hardik's striking look in the film, particularly the orange jacket and shiny goggles seen in the posters.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>When asked about the striking look of his character, Hardik, Kemmu, went on to share the interesting story behind the look. Revealing that it was never part of the script while he was writing it and was instead the idea of costume designer Rick Roy.</p><h3>Kunal Kemmu decodes viral look in Vibe: 'That costume didn't exist</h3><p>The orange furry jacket was never part of the script when he was writing it, and he gives all credit for it to Roy. For those who haven't watched the movie, Kunal plays Hardik, a good-for-nothing guy who is constantly protected by his friend Bugs, the smart engineer played by Sparsh Shrivastava. In one sequence of the movie, he appears sitting on a couch in that striking look that totally shifts the vibe.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>''When I had written the script, that costume didn't exist. I didn't know he [Hardik] would be wearing stuff like this. But when Rick Roy came on board, he's a very vibrant personality himself; he's a vibe himself. He showed me this look and said, 'I know this is not going in the film, but this should be the vibe.' And I was like, one second, why will it not go in the film? I'll find a place for it,'' he said.</p>

<p>''Even the goggles, they are his personal ones. Right till the time we actually shot that scene, I said, 'keep them handy. These are too loud, I don't think these will work, but keep them handy.' But when we were shooting it, it just made sense. When I put them on, I realised you can't see properly. I thought it would be fun for Hardik to see a prism image of him (Bugs) when he walks in. So right till we shot it, we weren't sure if we were going to use those, but then that became the look,'' the actor shares.&nbsp;</p><h3>Vibe: What is the movie about?</h3><p>The movie follows how Hardik and Bugs, the two boys, who can't even handle their lives properly, become agents tasked with saving India, and their misadventures make for the rest of the hilarious ride.

In an exclusive chat with WION, Kunal Kemmu revealed the story behind his viral orange jacket and goggles look in Vibe, saying it was never in the script and came from costume designer Rick Roy. The movie is playing in theatres. 

Kunal Kemmu's Vibe is out in theatres and is doing outstandingly well at the box office. This time, Kemmu wears three hats- director, writer, and actor- and delivers one of the most entertaining films of the year. After the film's release, WION caught up with him to talk about its success, his journey behind the camera, and the stories behind some of its funniest moments. He was also asked about Hardik's striking look in the film, particularly the orange jacket and shiny goggles seen in the posters. When asked about the striking look of his character, Hardik, Kemmu, went on to share the interesting story behind the look. Revealing that it was never part of the script while he was writing it and was instead the idea of costume designer Rick Roy. Kunal Kemmu decodes viral look in Vibe: 'That costume didn't exist The orange furry jacket was never part of the script when he was writing it, and he gives all credit for it to Roy. For those who haven't watched the movie, Kunal plays Hardik, a good-for-nothing guy who is constantly protected by his friend Bugs, the smart engineer played by Sparsh Shrivastava. In one sequence of the movie, he appears sitting on a couch in that striking look that totally shifts the vibe. ''When I had written the script, that costume didn't exist. I didn't know he [Hardik] would be wearing stuff like this. But when Rick Roy came on board, he's a very vibrant personality himself; he's a vibe himself. He showed me this look and said, 'I know this is not going in the film, but this should be the vibe.' And I was like, one second, why will it not go in the film? I'll find a place for it,'' he said.

<h2>WION's review of The Vvaan</h2><p>In WION's review, Pargati Awasthi writes, "With the amount of money invested in the film, the camera work and production design make the movie look grand and visually polished, whether it’s the tiger sequences or the ghost portions. The scale is evident on screen, and technically, the film creates moments of spectacle that briefly lift the otherwise wafer-thin narrative. In the first half, the combination of mythology with folklore genuinely excites the curious viewer. But soon, as the layers of the story start to unravel, all that remains is melodrama. Malhotra truly carries the film with his performance and does everything he possibly could for it, and so do the other actors. Tamannaah brings her charm, but her role in limited."</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Also Read: </strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bollywood/the-vvaan-teaser-sidharth-malhotra-and-tamannaah-bhatia-s-film-blends-supernatural-horror-with-folklore-fantasy-1787668154939"><strong>The Vvaan teaser: The film blends supernatural horror with folklore fantasy</strong></a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It further concludes, "In brief, Vvaan is a very Ekta Kapoor's Tulsi Virani world, in which Sidharth has made his debut as the divine hero, and he can't save this film with his looks."</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Also Read: </strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bollywood/vvan-sidharth-malhotra-tamannaah-bhatia-s-folklore-thriller-to-release-on-this-date-1774427356398"><strong>Sidharth Malhotra, Tamannaah Bhatia's Vvan to release on THIS date</strong></a></p><h2>About The Vvaan: Force of the Forrest</h2><p><i>The Vvaan: Force of the Forrest</i> is a fantasy folklore thriller that was released in theatres on September 25 (Friday).
