Released in theatres on August 1, the story revolves around Neelesh, a young man, who has faced caste-based discrimination, and Vidhi, a sweet girl from a privileged background. How the two fight against challenges and societal boundaries forms the crux of the story.

Written by Rahul Badwelkar, Shazia Iqbal, <i>Dhadak 2</i> brilliantly highlights the two different worlds that exist in the same class in law school. Vidhi is privileged, comes from a family of lawyers who flaunt their status in society, yet are the most insecure about family honour. Violence is an easy option to shut down those who rebel against them. Meanwhile, impoverished and marginalised, Neelesh’s family understands the power that education holds and when to fight back and when not to choose violence. They are oppressed, often misunderstood and harassed by the upper class and caste- yet they choose peace and education, partly because they know the law does not support them and partly because they follow Ambedkar’s ideology.'' <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bollywood/dhadak-2-review-siddhant-chaturvedi-triptii-dimri-s-film-jolts-you-from-all-kinds-of-delusion-1754017846574">Read the full review here.</a></p>

<h2>Son of Sardaar 2: Story, cast, review and more</h2><p>If you want to make your weekend hilarious and full of laughs, don’t miss Ajay Devgn’s sequel to his 2013 hit of the same name. With a quirky, silly and chaotic plot, the movie revolves around Devgn's character of Jassi Randhawa and the Sandhu family; however, these Sandhus are different. Like the first part, Jassi is an innocent Punjabi man who has been waiting for several years to visit his wife, Dimple (Neeru Bajwa), in Scotland. After a long wait, he finally visits his wife, only to find out that she wants to get a divorce. In the foreign lands, he meets a Pakistani girl, Rabia (Mrunal Thakur), who performs at weddings with her group, which includes Gul (Deepak Dobriyal), Saba (Roshni Walia), and Mehwish (Kubbra Sait). To set up Saba with his lover, who is an Indian, they end up with a chaotic plan.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Also read: </strong><a href="https://www.wionews.com/photos/inside-orry-s-unique-collection-lobster-bag-banana-phone-case-and-dragon-fly-suit-1758712693192">Orry's unique collection!

As always, there are two types of moviegoers: those who watch these films by leaving their brains at home, fully aware of what they’re watching and just enjoying their time, and others who look for logic in every scene. If you belong to the first category, then you will enjoy this movie. Directed by Vijay Kumar Arora, the film entertains with senseless moments, but most humorously and playfully, without going overboard.'' <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bollywood/son-of-sardaar-2-review-ajay-devgn-s-film-is-silly-chaotic-and-surprisingly-funny-1754028486803">Read the full review here.&nbsp;</a></p>

Son of Sardaar 2 and Dhadak 2 are two major releases this weekend. Moviegoers who missed both films in theaters can now watch them on streaming platforms. Check the details here:

All the fans who missed Ajay Devgn’s Son of Sardaar 2 and Dhadak 2 in theatres can now watch both movies at their own comfort on OTT. This weekend, one is a love story and the other a comedy riot, so whichever film you missed and wanted to catch up on, you finally can. Both Dhadak 2 and Son of Sardaar 2 are set to release on Netflix from September 26, giving audiences an exciting option to choose this weekend. The streaming giant took to Instagram to announce the OTT releases of these two films. Dhadak 2: Story, cast, review and more Starring Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri, the film is a spiritual sequel to the 2018 movie of the same title. Released in theatres on August 1, the story revolves around Neelesh, a young man, who has faced caste-based discrimination, and Vidhi, a sweet girl from a privileged background. How the two fight against challenges and societal boundaries forms the crux of the story. The movie is directed by Shazia Iqbali. Also read: A mystery unfolds in China as unexplained changes in horror flick 'Together' spark confusion among viewers Shomini Sen wrote that Dhadak 2 paints a more realistic and relatable picture. ‘’The film, an official Hindi remake of the 2018 Tamil film Pariyerum Perumal, jolts you into understanding how deeply rooted and pervasive caste based discrimination is in society. Written by Rahul Badwelkar, Shazia Iqbal, Dhadak 2 brilliantly highlights the two different worlds that exist in the same class in law school. Vidhi is privileged, comes from a family of lawyers who flaunt their status in society, yet are the most insecure about family honour. Violence is an easy option to shut down those who rebel against them. Meanwhile, impoverished and marginalised, Neelesh’s family understands the power that education holds and when to fight back and when not to choose violence. They are oppressed, often misunderstood and harassed by the upper class and caste- yet they choose peace and education, partly because they know the law does not support them and partly because they follow Ambedkar’s ideology.''

Is Aryan Khan's past back to haunt him? Sameer Wankhede, the man behind his arrest in 2023, has filed a defamation suit against SRK and Red Chillies for ‘wrongful’ depiction of him in Ba***ds of Bollywood. 

Ex-narcotics officer Sameer Wankhede has approached the Delhi High Court and filed a defamation suit against Netflix series The Ba***ds Of Bollywood and producer Shah Rukh Khan over Wankhede’s portrayal in the series. The show has been directed by SRK’s son Aryan Khan. Defamation Suit against SRK, Red Chillies Wankhede has sought Rs 2 crore in damages from Red Chillies Entertainment, Shah Rukh Khan’s production house and the company behind The Ba***ds of Bollywood. Wankhede claims he will donate the amount to the Tata Memorial Cancer Hospital for the treatment of cancer patients. Sameer Wankhede's Statement A statement from Wankhede read, "Sameer Wankhede, IRS Officer, has filed a defamation suit before the Delhi High Court seeking reliefs like permanent and mandatory injunction, declaration, and damages against Red Chillies Entertainment Pvt Ltd, owned by actor Shah Rukh Khan and Gauri Khan, the OTT platform, Netflix and others, having been aggrieved by a false, malicious, and defamatory video produced by Red Chillies and broadcast by Netflix as part of their television series titled The Ba***ds of Bollywood. "This series disseminates a misleading and negative portrayal of anti-drug enforcement agencies, thereby eroding public confidence in law enforcement institutions," read the statement.

''She would call him, ‘Bachchanwa kidhar hai?’ (Where is Bachchan). He liked that and began using it as his writing name,” he shared. He further revealed that their father was always against the caste system. So, when it came time to enrol Amitabh in school, he officially registered Bachchan as the family surname, creating a new legacy. Also read: Sholay with its original ending to be screened at Indian Film Festival of Sydney Apart from the surname, he also wanted to name the Sholay actor, ''Inquilab.'' Ajitabh continued, “My brother was five years older, and my father wanted to name him Inquilab, because he was struggling for Independence. My name was to be Azad. I was born in Independent India.” Amitabh thus became the first in the family to officially use the surname Bachchan. When Amitabh Bachchan shared the story behind his surname In 2019, Amitabh, who often shares interesting anecdotes through his blog, wrote about the origin of his surname, which had been his father’s pen name as a poet. Revealing that the caste system was the main reason behind his father’s decision, he wrote: "Babuji was born in a Kayasth home and a Srivastav. But his temperament was always against the ailment of caste, his nome de plume, his 'takhallus' his pen name he designed as 'BACHCHAN'. Poets writers of great eminence often designed their names with a nom de plume. So 'Bachchan' became my Father's pen name, his poetic nom de plume but it lent credence of its concept later when I was born, on being admitted to my first School, and being asked by the teachers what surname of this boy was to be filled in the admission form my Mother and father had a quick discussion and it was decided that 'Bachchan' would be the family surname," he wrote. "And it has remained so and shall remain so... My Father... the Bachchan (and) I the proud bearer of this surname," he wrote.

<p>Amitabh Bachchan's younger brother, Ajitabh, revealed the name that their father and legendary poet Harivansh Rai Bachchan had wanted to give to the legendary actor. He also shared the origin story of their unique surname. &nbsp;</p>
