<h2>Why did the Maharashtra FDA issue notices?</h2><p>The controversy began after the Maharashtra FDA objected to advertisements featuring the three actors promoting Vimal Elaichi, a branded mouth freshener. According to the regulator, although the advertisements promote a silver-coated cardamom, the Vimal brand is strongly associated with pan masala. The FDA therefore alleged that the campaign indirectly promoted Vimal Pan Masala, which is prohibited in Maharashtra.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Issued on August 11, 2026, the notices asked the actors to stop participating in the campaign, remove promotional material from their respective social media platforms, and provide details of the due diligence they carried out before endorsing the product. They were also asked to submit relevant agreements and documents concerning the advertisements.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>FDA invoked Section 24 of the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006, which deals with misleading advertisements. It also cited Section 53, under which publication of a misleading food advertisement can attract a penalty of up to Rs 10 lakh.</p><h2>What did Ajay Devgn, Shah Rukh Khan and Tiger Shroff say?</h2><p>The actors responded through their legal representatives, maintaining that they had endorsed Vimal Elaichi, not pan masala. The FDA continued its proceedings, saying the advertisements could amount to surrogate promotion of a prohibited product.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Before the three actors, Akshay Kumar had also faced criticism over his association with the campaign in 2022 and subsequently apologised before announcing his decision to withdraw from the endorsement.</p>

Drishyam 3 Monday box office: Ajay Devgn's film surpasses Singham Again, sets new career benchmark

<p>In a world of cinema, it doesn't matter what has been told to you, but how it has been told to you. For me, Abhishek Pathak's Drishyam: The Conclusion has been told in a way that keeps you stuck to the movie, waiting patiently as the story unfolds all its layers slowly and effortlessly.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Based on Jeethu Joseph's famous Malayalam hit, the first two parts followed the same narrative. But the Hindi version has concluded differently from Mohanlal's version (Which was released in May), finally revealing what will happen to the Salgaonkars in the murder case of Sam Deshmukh.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Released in 2015, the first part altogether changed the meaning of Oct 2, which is celebrated as Gandhi Jayanti, for Indian audiences. The second part was one of the most fitting sequels. Now the conclusion is out, and it comes with the same template and huge expectations. Will this part work for everyone? Totally depends on how invested one was in the story of the Salgaonkars.</p><h3>Drishyam: The Conclusion - A brief of how the story moves forward - No spoilers</h3><p>The movie starts with Meera Deshmukh (Tabu), who still wants revenge for the death of her son Sam. She is now suicidal, as her mental health has taken a toll. To give it one last chance before the final court hearing, Renu's husband (Rajat Kapoor) approaches the head of the Crime Branch, Rajveer Singh Tomar (Jaideep Ahlawat), who has some solid points and evidence that are enough to send the Salgaonkars behind bars.</p>

Still from Drishyam 3

<p>&nbsp;</p><p>Cut to picturesque Goa, where Vijay is living a happy life with his wife Nandini and daughters Anju and Anu. However, a fear continues to linger, and it still haunts the family. While things have been peaceful, it is Vijay and his cinema-driven mind that is continuously working, planning and plotting to save himself and his family as their worst nightmare comes true and they become aware of Tomar's intentions. How Vijay saves his family one last time forms the rest of the plot.</p><h3>Drishyam: The conclusion hits its highest peaks with fewer lows</h3><p>The murder-mystery universe comes with the challenge of maintaining the suspense, tension, and the slow-burning narrative that the audience felt when they first stepped into Vijay's world. Maintaining that same bar is no cakewalk, but they did it in the sequel and have done it again with the conclusion, framing situations in a way that will surely make you wonder about Vijay's next move.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>With the understanding that building a franchise on a murder mystery is a challenging job, as the demands a writer has to fulfil go beyond satisfying many minds. But this franchise has done it with a mostly linear narrative. Much like the first two parts, this one also keeps you hooked with a story that has aged well in many ways. Starting with a tense atmosphere, the trio of writers, Aamil Keeyan Khan, Abhishek Pathak and Parveez Shaikh, strikes a perfect balance between humour (credit goes to<br>Gaitonde (Laxmikant), twists and tension.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The emotions that had played a massive role in the previous two parts take a backseat this time, with the writting that is more satisfying.</p>

<p>The movie lacks when it comes to the story, that had overpowered by the background score that takes over the silent gaze, which was the gem of this franchise. On the writing front, the 2-hour-38-minute movie takes the audience on a promising journey and wastes no time in setting up the plot. With the thought of letting the story and the fans mind should get some peace, it has stayed within its limits, leaving the audience with no room to imagine it moving forward and that too is justified by why the makers have kept things in a tight grip.&nbsp;</p>

<p>While the first two parts had the story divided perfectly among the characters, here all the focus has shifted to Vijay and how and where he hid Sam's skeleton. With not much serious dialogue-baazi (most was done by Jaideep), this movie moves ahead with its expressions, story and actors. The first half of the movie establishes the plot with its omniscient tone, but midway through the movie it does feel a little stretched. The courtroom part is brief and works in favour of the plot. I don't want to talk about the climax, as it should be left to be enjoyed in cinemas.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>If we talk about the addition of Jaideep as a cop, the actor does bring his talent to the movie, but as the story moves forward, the way his character is built up with that hype doesn't quite land. More than him, it's Savio (Ramchandra Singh), the character who plays the key to the mystery room. His expressions and work truly stood out for me. In this film, the cherry on the cake is the actors. Devgn, with his intense gaze, is enough to hold the whole frame. Tabu, Rajat, Shriya Saran, Ishita Dutta, and Mrunal Jadhav have played their part well. &nbsp;<br><br>For me, Drishyam: The Conclusion gave me the satisfying ending my inner soul was wishing for.&nbsp;</p>

It's Vijay Salgaonkar's world, and Savio wins! This is the answer you will get when you watch the movie. Directed by Abhishek Pathak, the film bids a farewell with an intense, eye-gazing performance by Ajay Devgn. Read our no-spoiler review here.

<p>But what is the evidence? &nbsp;Filling in for Akshaye Khanna, Jaideep Ahlawat makes a powerful entry as a fiery cop who is now leading the case. And watching the trailer, it looks like that he is on the verge of uncovering the truth about Sam and the Salgaonkar family's involvement in the case. But as Prakash Raj's character says in the trailer, Vijay may be illiterate, but it would be a mistake to take him lightly. As we have seen in the last two films, he is always a step ahead with his planning, and this time too, it seems he will go to any extent to save his family and walk away clean.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The trailer is gripping, with an intense tone, powerful expressions, and a strong hook that leaves you wondering how the story will unravel this time. &nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Expectations for the film are sky-high, and the truth will finally unravel in cinemas on October 2.&nbsp;</p>

Helmed by Abhishek Pathak, Drishyam: The Conclusion also stars Tabu, Ishita Dutta, Jaideep Ahlawat, Rajat Kapoor, and Shriya Saran in pivotal roles. Movie will release on October 2. 

Drishyam is heading towards its conclusion, and this time everyone knows that Vijay Salgaonkar (Ajay Devgn) has done it. IG Meera Deshmukh (Tabu) and her team only want to unravel the truth, and as her character says, she wants revenge, not just justice for her son Sam. While all the old characters are returning, the big new addition is Jaideep Ahlawat, who is the new cop, behind Devgn's character and will make things much more difficult for him. How Vijay will save himself and his family will be interesting to watch. Directed by Abhishek Pathak, the film also stars Tabu, Ishita Dutta, Jaideep Ahlawat, Rajat Kapoor, and Shriya Saran in pivotal roles. Drishyam 3 trailer out: It's Vijay Salgaonkar and family vs everyone On Wednesday (Sept 9), the trailer of Drishyam: The Conclusion was unveiled in Goa in the presence of the media, and it takes the audience back into the world of Vijay; this time, everyone is against him. And how he will save his family and told the world that he's innocent makes up the rest of the story. The trailer opens with Meera Deshmukh asking author Murad Ali (Saurabh Shukla) what Vijay will do this time, to which he replies, "Only Vijay knows, or God."Meera is back seeking revenge for her son, while Vijay, in a voiceover, reveals that the police have evidence against him this time - evidence that could prove his family killed Sam.

Aapne itni mehnat ki hai toh film audience ko pasand aani chahiye aur chalni chahiye. Toh koshish toh yahi rehti hai ki film aisi banaye ki logon ko pasand aaye. Toh jab film release ho rahi hoti hai toh thoda pressure mein sab hi aate hain (There is always a little bit of pressure. When you have worked so hard on a film, you naturally want the audience to like it and for it to do well. The effort is always to make a film that people will enjoy.

The actor who has been a part of Golmaal, Singham, Drishyam, and now Dhamaal shared his perspective, saying, "I think sequel tabhi work karta hai jab uske characters logon ko pasand aajaye. Chahe yeh (Dhamaal 4) le lijiye, Golmaal le lijiye. Woh characters ko naam se jaante hain. Ek baar characters ke saath audience jud jaati hai na toh we can take the story forward (I think a sequel works only when the audience connects with and likes its characters. Whether it's this franchise or something like Golmaal, people know those characters by name. Once the audience forms a bond with the characters, we can continue taking the story forward)."

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.''
