<p>In the picture, Devgn played the role of an unsung hero Tanaji and Kajol played the role of his on-screen wife. Sharing a picture on his social media handles, Devgn wrote, “Three decades in cinema! And, you are all fired up! Frankly, you’re just getting started. To many more milestones, movies &amp; memories.”<br />
<br />
Kajol also shared a montage video made up of her most-iconic roles and wrote, ''Someone asked me yesterday what am I feeling? Couldn't really put it into words, except to say that it is a feeling of deep gratitude for all the love everyone has showered on me so unconditionally! So, cheers to 30 years and counting... and God willing to another 30 more!”</p>

India's national film award winners announced: Ajay Devgn and Suriya share best actor award

<p>Two big-budget films are released this Friday. Tiger Shroff's 'Heropanti 2' and Ajay Devgn's 'Runway 34'. Both the film was billed as big-budget, multi starrer and expected to bring in moolah at the box office.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Early reports indicate that 'Heropantri' is doing better business than 'Runaway 34'. While both the films struggled to get their house full on the first day of the release, trade pandits predict Tiger Shroff's film to do better business over the weekend.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
According to a report on Boxofficeindia ‘Heropanti 2' earned Rs 7 crore nett while ‘Runway 34’ earned around Rs 3.25 crore nett. These figures are one of the lowest opening-day numbers for both &nbsp;Ajay Devgn and Tiger Shroff. It remains to be seen whether ‘Heropanti 2’ and ‘Runway 34’ manage to cash in during the Eid holiday.</p>

'Runway 34' Twitter review: Netizens call Ajay Devgn & Amitabh Bachchan starrer a thrilling watch

<p>Bollywood actor Ajay Devgn and Kannada star Kiccha Sudeepa had a showdown as the two got into a verbal spat over whether Hindi is the national language of India or not. After Kiccha Sudeepaa said at an event that Hindi is not a national language anymore, Ajay Devgn did not mince words on the matter.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Ajay Devgn said, “Kiccha Sudeep, my brother, according to you, if Hindi is not our national language then why do you release your native language [mother tongue] films by dubbing them in Hindi? Hindi was, is and always will be our mother tongue and national language. Jan Gan Man."</p>

Bollywood actor Ajay Devgn and Kannada star Kiccha Sudeepa had a showdown as the two got into a verbal spat over whether Hindi is the national language of India or not. After Kiccha Sudeepaa said at an event that Hindi is not a national language anymore, Ajay Devgn did not mince words on the matter. Ajay Devgn said, “Kiccha Sudeep, my brother, according to you, if Hindi is not our national language then why do you release your native language [mother tongue] films by dubbing them in Hindi? Hindi was, is and always will be our mother tongue and national language. Jan Gan Man." .@KicchaSudeep मेरे भाई, आपके अनुसार अगर हिंदी हमारी राष्ट्रीय भाषा नहीं है तो आप अपनी मातृभाषा की फ़िल्मों को हिंदी में डब करके क्यूँ रिलीज़ करते हैं? हिंदी हमारी मातृभाषा और राष्ट्रीय भाषा थी, है और हमेशा रहेगी। जन गण मन । — Ajay Devgn (@ajaydevgn) April 27, 2022 × To this, Kiccha wrote, "Hello @ajaydevgn sir.. the context to why i said tat line is entirely different to the way I guess it has reached you.

<p>OTT has played a major role in the pandemic-affected world as it emerged as a saviour for the entertainment industry and moviegoers alike. But after two years in the spotlight, are OTTs becoming a dumping ground?</p>

<p>Making his OTT debut with 'Rudra – The Edge of Darkness', Ajay Devgn stars in a series that is a remake of the British series 'Luther' as the Bollywood actor steps into Idris Elba's shoes as an obsessive police officer.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The series is set in Mumbai, India and Ajay Devgn plays the role of a cop DCP Rudra Veer Singh, who is 24/7 dedicated to his service. He is smart, cunning and solves crimes with his sharp mind but that only leads to his personal life suffering at the hands of his profession.&nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="ajay" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="56aaeb4a-0011-4d38-a45c-c2bafadd3a44" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/2_133.jpg" /></p>

<p>Director Rajesh Mapuskar wastes no time and quickly takes the audience into the dark tricky world of Rudra with each episode showing highly intelligent criminals vs our cop. The first episode quickly reveals all the main faces of Rudra's life - his estranged wife Shaila, portrayed by Esha, his co-worker, his boss played by Ashwini Kalsekar. Then there is Raashii Khanna who makes her OTT debut with the complex yet the intriguing character of Dr Aliyah Choksi, a criminal and super-intelligent person who builds an unusual bond with Rudra.</p>

<p>The screenplay is not as intriguing as we expected but we must add that the story is simple and is an easy watch. So, it manages to grip the audience without giving a headache.</p>

<p>There are some flaws of course in this old-school hero drama with the story being stretched unnecessarily demanding viewers' time with long dialogues.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The casting job is fantastic. Ajay Devgn, who has carved a niche in the industry, manages to lead the series with his brilliant aura and calmness, and his Rudra version is surely a standout from his other on-screen cop roles like 'Singham' series and 'Gangajal'. Khanna's role is smart, her eyes are shiny and grab your attention every time she comes in the frame, but somewhere her character lacks depth and feels like something is unfinished.</p>

<p>Note-worthy performances are delivered by Atul Kulkarni as a cop and Ashwini Kalsekar as a boss and KC Shankar. Meanwhile, Esha, who has made her way back to acting, is not impressive at all.</p>

<p>All over, Ajay Devgn starrer series is truly an Indian version with ample drama, emotion, thriller. Somewhere the story falters with slow screenplay, stretched episodes and has various flaws, but good casting manages to save the series.</p>

'Rudra' Review: Ajay Devgn is flawless in this slow-paced old-school crime drama

<p>The grandeur and the visual extravaganza on&nbsp;any Sanjay Leela Bhansali film are the usual tropes. His latest 'Gangubai Kathiawadi' featuring the incredibly Alia Bhatt is no different. Visual opulence, stunning sets make the film a quintessential Bhansali big-budget blockbuster but 'Gangubai Kathiawadi' scores over and above the obvious- for its performances, for a distinctly feminist voice, for re-telling a story about a section that is always overlooked in Indian society.</p>

<p>Based on chapters from the book ‘Mafia Queens Of Mumbai’ by Hussain Zaidi, 'Gangubai Kathiawadi' is set in the early 1950s and spans over 15 years nearly and showcases the journey of a girl called Ganga who came to Mumbai to become a heroine, was sold off to a brothel by her lover and eventually made Kamathipura- Mumbai's famous red-light district, her home and its people her family.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Bhatt plays the young vulnerable, starry-eyed Ganga, who decides to elope one day with the man who she thinks loves her and has promised her the stars. On her arrival to Bombay, she is taken to a brothel, sold off and kept captive for two days without any water or food. Guilty of running away from home without informing her parents, ashamed of the place she is has been sold to, Ganga decides to stay back and make prostitution her profession. Over some time, Ganga becomes Gangu, a name to reckon with in the area, who knows her worth and fights for the rights of her people.&nbsp;</p>

<p>A terrible encounter with a client makes Gangu go to the local ganglord Rahim Lala (Ajay Devgn) for justice. Impressed by her honesty, the two strike an uncanny friendship, helping Gangu gain prominence in the area, win local elections and become the voice of the people there.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Fuelled by theatrics, stunning camera work and detailed screenplay, 'Gangubai Kathiawadi' is an engrossing&nbsp;<br />
film. The plot may be known but the performances, led by Alia Bhatt keep the viewers hooked through its nearly three hours runtime.</p>

<p>The past three releases of Bhansali's have been centred around love and emotions around it. All featured Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone in the lead playing historical characters. With 'Gangubai Kathiawadi' Bhansali shifts focus to Mumbai or Bombay in the 1940s-50s and tells the story of an uncanny hero- a mafia queen which is so refreshing from his past releases.&nbsp;</p>

<p><img alt="g" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="7c266e45-d97e-4640-a9da-784b8ec548c2" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/Untitled%20design%20-%202022-02-24T112645.780.jpg" /></p>

<p>Bhansali and co-writer Utkarshini Vashishtha give the story a distinct, strong female voice. Gangu is not ashamed of her past, she is not apologetic of her background and knows her rights too well. She is ahead of her time, knows the power a woman holds in her lifetime and only has the men in her life to help her causes. A scene, that is also part of the trailer, has Gangu taking a few young girls- kids of the brothel- to the nearby school for admission. She offers her name as mother's name and when probed to reveal the father's name, nonchalantly declares 'Dev Anand' highlighting the patriarchy that is imbibed in the system. Then a scene where she delivers a long lecture at Azad Maidaan- she uses humour and facts to highlight the importance of prostitutes in society. In another scene, she reasons with the women why do men have so much arrogance when women are the ones who handle everything.&nbsp;</p>

<div class="videoWrapper trancodeVideo"><iframe allowfullscreen="" autoplay="1" class="includeVideo" frameborder="0" height="350" src="https://www.wionews.com/videos/exclusive-interview-with-gangubai-alia-bhatt-455516/embed" style="width:100%;max-width:560px;" width="560"></iframe></div>

<p>Alia is the star of Bhansali's story. She is equal parts vulnerable, equal parts feisty. She exudes power, charm and charisma as Gangubai Kathiawadi and beautifully shows the journey of a young, naive girl making her living in the red light district and eventually becoming a force to reckon with. Many had doubted her casting when the film was initially announced and felt she was too young to play the Mafia queen. But Alia brings in so much gravitas to her character that it is hard to look at anyone else in the film when Alia is around. This is in a film that boasts of great performances by almost every single actor- the screentime notwithstanding.&nbsp;</p>

<p><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bollywood/news-exclusive-alia-bhatt-weighs-in-on-the-importance-of-indian-films-going-to-oscars-456198" hreflang="en">Exclusive: Alia Bhatt weighs in on the importance of Indian films going to Oscars</a></p>

<p>The men in the film are all enablers to Gangu's rise and evolution to a godly woman. There is Ajay Devgn, playing the silent, just Mafia lord who helps Gangu gain prominence in her area. TV actor Shantanu Maheshwari makes an impressive debut as Afsan, the man who falls head over heels for Gangu, never crosses the line and gains respect and affection from her in return. Bhatt and Maheshwari's scenes are all about first love and the two beautifully perform to it. Vijay Raaz plays a eunuch with so grace and dignity and is the person who makes Gangu aspire for a political career. Then there Jim Sarbh, who plays a journalist who helps Gangu become a national sensation. The actors fit their role well and deliver to their script, never overstepping Bhatt - who is truly the hero of the film.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The songs have the Bhansali trademark. Slow soulful numbers- mostly picturised when Bhatt is seen romancing Maheshwari. The fast numbers are traditional Garba numbers- which may remind you of songs of 'Goliyon Ki Rasleela'.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Cinematographer Sudeep Chatterjee- a frequent collaborator with Bhansali- makes the film visually so rich. Scenes where the girls get dressed sitting on a bench minutes before they head out to attract possible customers seem like paintings. Chatterjee's frames enhance Bhansali's signature style but are never too opulent because that's not what the script demands.&nbsp;</p>

<div class="videoWrapper trancodeVideo">'Gangubai Kathiawadi' has the right amount of melodrama, humour, emotions and dialogue baazi that make for a typical Bollywood blockbuster.
