Amitabh Bachchan shares throwback photo with Sridevi, Salman, Aamir from their first concert

<p>For an actor who has delivered back-to-back blockbuster hits for the past many years, Aamir Khan is quite humble when it comes to failures. His last release, 'Thugs Of Hindostan' was pitched as the big release of 2018 and featured Amitabh Bachchan, Fatima Sana Shaikh and Katrina Kaif along with him. But the film failed to work at the box office.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The movie met with extreme criticism and crashed upon it's release. <a href="http://www.wionews.com/entertainment/thugs-of-hindostan-review-aamir-khan-amitabh-bachchans-latest-is-unacceptable-176190">Read the review of 'Thugs Of Hindostan' here.&nbsp;</a><br />
<br />
Aamir said he doesn't need to "forgive" director Vijay Krishna Acharya as they all set out to make a good film.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
"Every director that I work with, they are good and their intentions are good. We all aim to make a good film but sometimes it doesn't happen. Filmmaking is difficult. I'm a team player. If my director has gone wrong, I've gone wrong with him," Aamir said in a group interview.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
"I don't mind failing with my director on his or her instincts. I don't have a problem. I believe in the director and if he has gone wrong, I have too. We will learn from our mistakes," he added.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The actor said he took the responsibility for the failure as the audience came in to watch the film for him.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
"Audience came to watch the film on my name. So it was my responsibility. To that audience I feel personally and fully responsible."<br />
<br />
While the film was bashed from all quarters, there was a section which felt the criticism was unfair. Aamir said he's aware there are people who liked the film but wouldn't want to be judgemental towards those who didn't.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
"I've met a lot of people who told me they liked the film. But I don't judge these things. I think the audience has full right to say exactly what they want and they can be harsh in their criticism, that's their right. If there was a certain amount of harshness, so be it," he said.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
"Also, I didn't give a flop film since a long time! So people got an opportunity to take out their anger, which is good too. It's been years since I have had a failure," he quipped.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The actor was in conversation with the media to promote his upcoming production, ' Rubaru Roshni'. Directed by Svati Chakravarty Bhatkal, the film chronicles three real life story of grief and forgiveness.&nbsp;</p>

But the one person that my father loved the most was Bachchan saab. I’d ask my father whom he missed the most from the film industry and the answer promptly would be Bachchan Saab. And I know the love was mutual. I want Bachchan saab to know that my father spoke about him till the end.” In his final days, Kader Khan was attended to by his son Sarfaraz and daughter-in-law Shahista. It’s said that Khan was upset as no one called or came to visit him in all this time that he was ill.

Kader Khan remembered Amitabh Bachchan in his final days, reveals son

<p>Few know that it was the trailblazer of New Wave cinema in India, the 'revolutionary' Mrinal Sen who discovered India's most famous voice in films and commercials. It happened long ago when Amitabh was no Big B but a “bachcha”, as Mrinalda says, desperate for a break in films.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The year was 1969. Sen was in Bombay to edit 'Bhuvan Shome', which he had finished shooting in Bhavnagar. He once went over to the house of his friend and script-writer, K A Abbas, who had then started work on 'Saat&nbsp;Hindustani'. Abbas was seated amidst a motley group from which he was to pick his cast and crew.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Sen's visit was to find a good voice as the narrator of his film and, he told Abbas that he would like a new voice.&nbsp;</p>

<p>One “lambu” stood up and told Sen “Ami Bangla jaaney” (I know Bengali). Sen told “the boy” his Bengali was bad but his voice&nbsp;good, and good enough for a Hindi narration. The tall boy took on the assignment with the consent of Abbas.&nbsp;</p>

<p>After the voice over was done, Sen said he could not pay much. The boy said he didn't want payment because he did not do it for money. Sen insisted and paid him. The boy was eager to know whether his name would appear in the film. Sen assured him it will.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The boy’s name was Amitabh Bachchan. “But, don't mention Bachchan in the title, put only Amitabh,” he pleaded. Sen agreed.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In the credit titles of Mrinal Sen’s 'Bhuvan Shome' – the film that launched the parallel movement in Hindi cinema -- the voice-over artiste’s name “Amitabh” appears last. &nbsp;</p>

<p>This is, perhaps, the only film in which the Bachchan name figures at the end and not in full. My eye did not catch this detail when I saw the film in 1970s. Nor did I register the narrator’s baritone voice — heard for less than five minutes at the beginning and end of the film — that was to become famous and so familiar.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Sometime later, the director and his voice-over artiste met in Calcutta and went to a function at the film journalists’ association. There, on seeing Amitabh, a reporter asked Sen, “Is he your next hero?” Sen liked the idea but had to find a role that suited him. Amitabh himself was keen to act in Sen’s films, and Sen did consider casting him in Interview. Amitabh too would have liked the role, except that Sen wanted an ordinary looking person. “And Amitabh was a striking personality”.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Sen told me that “the boy” remembers all this. Some years ago he corrected a critic that the first voice-over he did was for 'Bhuvan Shome', and not for Satyajit Ray’s 'Shatranj ke Khiladi' in 1983. He also said that I paid him Rs 500. “Amitabh does not remember. It was only Rs 300”.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Sen told me this story when I last met him in 2002 during a retrospective of his films at Delhi's India International Centre; and, I made it a point to pay attention to the unforgettable voice.&nbsp;<br />

<p>One of the most anticipated films of 2018, 'Thugs Of Hindostan' opened to record-breaking numbers but sank soon after. The film which stars Aamir Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Katrina Kaif and Fatima Sana Shaikh, received bad<a href="http://www.wionews.com/entertainment/thugs-of-hindostan-review-aamir-khan-amitabh-bachchans-latest-is-unacceptable-176190"> reviews </a>across and the numbers have been dipping since the first day of its release.&nbsp;</p>

<p>While most have been panning the film, Aamir's friend, Shah Rukh Khan has come out and spoken in support of the film and its leading stars. In an interview to a daily Khan said <a href="http://www.wionews.com/entertainment/thugs-of-hindostan-fails-to-rise-earns-rs-129-crores-in-six-days-177268">it was heartbreaking to see how the film was fairing at the box office</a> and felt people have been a little too harsh about it.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"I would like to say something. It’s a little personal and I don’t know whether it’s right to say it or not. This is something that’s saddened me and so I want to share it. When it happened to me personally, I wasn’t so sad, but this time I am. There are people who have given excellence to cinema for years. A film can be good, a film can be bad; none of us can ever claim ki maine duniya ki sabsi achchi film banayi hain. Mr Bachchan and Aamir have been people who have constantly contributed to the excellence of cinema," SRK said.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"The greatest contribution to Hindi cinema in the last 10 years has been from Aamir, and with Amitji, it’s been even longer. Now if a film of theirs (Thugs of Hindostan) doesn’t reach the level that you expected it to, does it take away from what they have done for cinema? I think some people have been a little too harsh. It’s heartbreaking. It doesn’t mean that their spirit is broken, they are all amazing artistes who will bounce back."</p>

<p>Praising 'Stree' and its success. SRK felt that a film like 'Thugs Of Hindostan' could be given leeway. "But one needs to be a little less harsh. I think Stree was fabulous and we need to make 20,000 films like that. But I also think that 'Thugs of Hindostan' is fantastic. Sometimes we do go wrong, but Aamir has never done a film in which he hasn’t put in his best… I’ve known him for 20 years. And if there’s anyone who can put in even more effort than Aamir — which Aamir will also agree — it’s Amitji... and at this age! So they’ve come in with good hearts and great talent and tried to make a film which tries to open up a new genre. I may be speaking out of turn, but just like we have embraced 'Stree', we need to give some leeway to films like Thugs… that attempt something different."&nbsp;</p>

<p>Khan felt that the film should be appreciated for attempting a different genre. "An adventure film has not been made in India in decades… probably 'Parasmani' (1963) in black and white was the last one. Thugs… has tried to introduce this genre and kabhi kabhi upar neeche ho sakta hai. But the fact remains that in our cinema, we haven’t made an Indiana Jones and screw the comparison yaar, humne Pirates of the Caribbean bhi nahin banayi. So props to them for the attempt,” he said.</p>

But the fact remains that in our cinema, we haven’t made an Indiana Jones and screw the comparison yaar, humne Pirates of the Caribbean bhi nahin banayi. So props to them for the attempt,” he said.

Krishna Raj Kapoor's funeral: Bollywood gathers at Kapoor residence to bid farewell

<p>One of the most awaited film of the year, ‘Thugs of Hindostan’ held its trailer launch in Mumbai today as the entire star cast including Amitabh Bachchan, Aamir Khan, Fatima Sana Sheikh and Katrina Kaif came for the event. Organised as a red carpet event, the film’s trailer launch was as big as a film premiere, something seen rarely in India.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The action-adventure based in the British-Indian era is directed by Vijay Krishna Acharya aka Victor of the fame ‘Dhoom 3’.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Touted as a Diwali gift for their fans, the film’s trailer sees Aamir Khan (Firangi) pitted against Amitabh Bachchan (Azaad) as the two fight it out in an intense battle of power and surrender. Fatima (Zafira) looks like team Amitabh in the trailer while Aamir is seen romancing Katrina (Suraiyya) who looks beautiful in every frame.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The trailer of the film makes it look a tad too inspired from Hollywood hit film ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’. The music score also sounds very familiar for someone who follows the Pirates franchise.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Tanushree Dutta's recent accusation against <a href="http://www.wionews.com/entertainment/tanushree-dutta-accuses-nana-patekar-harassing-her-set-10-years-ago-167771">Nana Patekar for harassing her on a film set 10 years back </a>has opened a can of worms in Bollywood.

<p>Khan said it would not be right for him to comment but "whenever something like this does happen it is really a sad thing".&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Khan said it would be unfair on his part to comment on the controversy without knowing the "veracity" or the "details" of the matter.<br />
<br />
"I don't think I can comment on it... But whenever something like this does happen it is really a sad thing. Now whether such thing has happened it is for people to investigate it," he said.<br />
<br />
In a recent TV interview, Dutta said Patekar misbehaved with her on the sets of 'Horn Ok Pleasss' 10 years ago.<br />
<br />
The actor, a former Miss India-Universe who is now based in the US, also alleged that Patekar had the tacit support of the film's makers.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Patekar, who had denied the claims at a press conference when Dutta raised the issue in 2008, remained unreachable despite several attempts to contact him for his version of what had happened.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Dutta's allegations have opened a furious debate on sexual harassment in the Hindi film industry with many supporting her but others questioning her motives for raising the issue so many years later.&nbsp;<br />

The actor, who has featured in films such as 'Aashiq Banaya Aapne' and 'Chocolate', said she spoke about the issue earlier and no one had the right to say anything to her.<br />

"They called me a slut, an unprofessional.. When I spoke about it eight to ten years back. Nobody has right to say anything to me," Dutta told a news agency.<br />
<br />
Dutta said there is social stigma and character assassination that a woman goes through when she talks or tries to talk about such incidents.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Recounting the incident and its aftermath, she claimed she tried to escape but the situation went from being a "harassment situation to a mob lynching situation".&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<br />
"When I tried to escape they called the media, they called some people to mob lynch and attack my car. My parents were there inside and even I was inside, it was horrific. So from harassment situation to a mob lynching situation..."<br />
<br />
"They made sure that we did not escape from the studio, they locked the gates and then the cops came and they got us out... So when we filed the police report, they filed a counter complaint and because of the counter FIR, my dad, hairdresser and spot boy had to go through so much harassment over the next couple of years," she said.&nbsp;</p>
