<p>On August 8, the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne kickstarted their tenth-year celebrations with a star-studded&nbsp;press conference that took place on Thursday morning at Melbourne’s Central Business District. The award-winning film festival opened in the presence of Bollywood’s who’s who, amidst much frenzy and fanfare.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Taking charge of the event, Mitu Bhowmick Lange, director of the festival introduced the programs of the festival. Given that the list includes names like Shah Rukh Khan, Karan Johar and Tabu, none of who require an introduction, the excitement in the air was palpable. &nbsp;Martin Foley, Minister for Creative Industries for the Victorian Legislative Assembly, was present at the do.</p>

<p>Khan, the guest of honour at the festival was received with great love by the audience. The superstar, who has earlier shot 'Chak De! India' in the city, eloquently spoke about how much the place means to him.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
In his trademark charm, he quipped, “Many years ago in 2006-07, I came here when I was a rising superstar giving hit films after hit films. And now I am back here again, still, a rising superstar not making as many hit films (chuckles), as much as I would want to do so. I thank everyone for the opportunity to speak here. When I was shooting for 'Chak De' in the city, I used to play Trivial (a game) with crew members on set. Because of being an Indian film actor, we often feel localised. It’s thus heartening that because of the Indian diaspora - the second generation of Indians here (people like Mitu) Indian cinema is getting noticed. It’s extremely gratifying and makes every Indian proud. I speak for everyone on the dais today, that we are happy to be here.”</p>

<br />
Witty and sharp as always Khan’s energy was matched by long time collaborator and dear friend Karan Johar. As their wise cracks entertained audiences, they also spoke about the overarching theme of courage.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Karan said, “I have to start by thanking Mitu who has been such a strong force right through the festival. It’s not the films but the people behind the festival who make it what it is. When I see this fantastic panel and we say the theme is courage, I say the panel is reflective of the glorious courage of our films and changing face of Indian cinema. It represents three feature films that have changed the way we look at Indian cinema and how it has travelled across the globe and will continue to do so. There is 'Super Deluxe', 'Andhadhun' and 'Gully Boy'. All of these have appealed not only to the diaspora but to international audiences across the globe, making Indian cinema so proud. And what to say about Shah Rukh Khan, he fully represents super stardom. I firmly believe, in the era we belonged to, the term is understood because of him. It’s not just about his large heart but his tremendous presence and aura. The fact that he is an outstanding actor is hugest icing on the cake. I look forward to my time here and all the selection of movies is on point and resonant with the theme of courage.”</p>

<p>Mitu says, “It’s been 10 wonderful years of the festival. I’m so grateful for all the guests who have come here year on year and been part of the festival. I’m extremely humbled and excited to have Shah Rukh Khan here as our chief guest and to have the friend of our festival and one of the best film directors of India, Karan Johar. And the esteemed panel of guests. We take immense pride in the diversity and inclusion we represent at the festival and this year we are celebrating courage and who better to display courage than these amazing filmmakers like Zoya, Thiagarajan, Sriram, Rima.”&nbsp;</p>

<p>The Indian Film Festival of Melbourne will go on from the 8th of August to the 15th of August in Melbourne, Australia.

Shah Rukh Khan, Tabu, Karan Johar and others kick off Indian Film Festival of Melbourne

<p>Looks like MLA Manjinder Sirsa isn't done yet. After stoking controversy by accusing celebrities including Deepika Padukone, Ranbir Kapoor, Vicky Kaushal, Arjun Kapoor, Malaika Arora, Shahid Kapoor, Mira Kapoor, and Ayan Mukerji, among others, of consuming drugs at a <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/karan-johar-posts-a-video-of-his-house-party-mla-accuses-stars-of-being-in-a-drugged-state-239686">party hosted by Karan Johar</a>, the Shiromani Akali Dal MLA has now written an open letter.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The SAD legislator said it`s not fair for the stars to "escape accountability" citing "private life" as an excuse. "You are given the front row in national functions and events; you are treated like India`s unofficial ambassadors abroad and you are the trendsetter, in haircuts, hemlines and even when it comes to naming the children! Does it sound fair on your part when you escape your accountability citing PRIVATE LIFE as an excuse to organise and then flaunt on Instagram your Drug Party?" read the letter shared by Sirsa on Twitter.<br />
<br />
Pointing out the surrounding and physical state of the celebrities who were present at the party, he asked if their dislike for drugs and narcotic substances was limited to on-screen presence."If it was not a drug party, why were there no food or drink glasses? If it wasn`t a powder-impacted state, why did you all appear stoned and shamelessly out of your senses? Does your dislike for drugs and narcotic substances limited to the on-screen presence and just to defame a state for some cheap publicity (and hefty money)?" read the statement.<br />
<br />
"Is there any passion within when you associate with a cause or all that campaigning is a `part Drama` done to please some group or agenda-setters?" he asked.</p>

MLA who acussed Bollywoood actors of being in 'drugged state' now writes open letter, demands accountability

<p>Bollywood's latest pin-up girl Kiara Advani celebrated her 27th birthday in style on Thursday night. The actress, who is currently riding high on the success of her latest film 'Kabir Singh' threw a big birthday bash at a suburban restaurant in Mumbai which had Shahid Kapoor, Athiya Shetty, Karan Johar and others in attendance.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Perhaps what drew the maximum attention was when post party, Kiara left in actor Sidharth Malhotra's car. Now, for those coming in late, the two actors have been cast in Vishnu Varadhan's 'Shershaah', which tells the story of Kargil hero Captain Vikram Batra who was martyred at the age of 24.</p>

<p><img alt="k" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="9369487f-e6e6-4776-a212-f87515159449" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/Untitled%20design%20-%202019-08-01T125353.035.jpg" /></p>

<p>Rumours of their alleged link-up have been doing the rounds for some time. Earlier, during an interview, Kiara was even asked to comment on the rumour, and the actress had denied it saying, "No, I am very single." When she was asked how she dealt with link-up rumours, she had stated, "They are rumours only. That's the truth."<br />
<br />
On Thursday night though, as the two actors left in the same car, it surely got several of their fans excited and cheering for them on social media.&nbsp;</p>

Bollywood's latest pin-up girl Kiara Advani celebrated her 27th birthday in style on Thursday night. The actress, who is currently riding high on the success of her latest film 'Kabir Singh' threw a big birthday bash at a suburban restaurant in Mumbai which had Shahid Kapoor, Athiya Shetty, Karan Johar and others in attendance.

Bollywood's latest pin-up girl Kiara Advani celebrated her 27th birthday in style on Thursday night. The actress, who is currently riding high on the success of her latest film 'Kabir Singh' threw a big birthday bash at a suburban restaurant in Mumbai which had Shahid Kapoor, Athiya Shetty, Karan Johar and others in attendance. Perhaps what drew the maximum attention was when post party, Kiara left in actor Sidharth Malhotra's car. Now, for those coming in late, the two actors have been cast in Vishnu Varadhan's 'Shershaah', which tells the story of Kargil hero Captain Vikram Batra who was martyred at the age of 24. Rumours of their alleged link-up have been doing the rounds for some time. Earlier, during an interview, Kiara was even asked to comment on the rumour, and the actress had denied it saying, "No, I am very single." When she was asked how she dealt with link-up rumours, she had stated, "They are rumours only. That's the truth." On Thursday night though, as the two actors left in the same car, it surely got several of their fans excited and cheering for them on social media. View this post on Instagram Host Karan Johar had asked Sidharth on Koffee With Karan about the rumours. The actor had replied, “The amount of rumours I have had in the tabloids, I’m having lesser fun in real life. I wish they were true. Kiara is lovely. We are going to work together in future.

Sharing the video on social media, Sirsa tweeted a jibe with reference to the Shahid-starrer 'Udta Punjab', which dealt with drug abuse: "#UDTABollywood - Fiction Vs Reality.

Karan Johar to produce Hindi remake of Vijay Deverakonda's 'Dear Comrade'

<p>Team India`s journey in the 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup came to an end on Wednesday as<a href="https://www.wionews.com/sports/new-zealand-stun-india-by-18-runs-to-reach-world-cup-final-234755"> New Zealand defeated the Indian cricket team </a>in the semi-finals of the tournament. The loss naturally shattered dreams of millions of Indian fans.</p>

<p>The match, which went on for two days due to rain on the first day, left a lot of Bollywood celebrities disappointed as well.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Even after a shaky start, Ravindra Jadeja and MS Dhoni`s partnership got the team close to the score, but they still couldn`t make it.While people are still reeling over India`s loss in the tournament, Bollywood celebrities took to Twitter to express their disappointment after India missed their chance to lift the World Cup trophy.<br />
<br />
Anupam Kher, Aamir Khan, Karan Johar, Ayushmann Khurrana, Riteish Deshmukh, Rishi Kapoor, Varun Dhawan, Arjun Rampal, Randeep Hooda, Sonakshi Sinha, Huma Qureshi, and Boman Irani, among many others, hailed team India for putting up a good fight against the Kiwis.<br />
<br />
Aamir took to the micro-blogging site and wrote for him India "had already won the world cup when we qualified for the semis.Hard luck Virat. Just wasn`t our day today. For me, India had already won the world cup when we qualified for the semis at the top of the list as the no 1 team. Well played guys, throughout the tournament. I just wish it hadn`t rained yesterday... the result might have been different. But well done. Proud of our team. Love. A,"&nbsp;<br />

It’s relentless in its narrative leaves you reckless in emotion and you find yourself Manicly rooting for Kabir’s unabashed love for Preeti! This modern Ode to Devdas leaves you spellbound! It also makes you stand up and applaud the genius of @shahidkapoor’s portrayal of KABIR SINGH! He lives and breathes the character with insanity and abandon! It almost seems like he has pulled every bit of himself to portray the part! Brilliant!!!! @kiaraaliaadvani is just so lovely! Her vulnerability and silences win your heart and soul!! She is the sunshine and smile of the film.....it’s directorial brilliance all the way! Sandeep is a master storyteller and breaks all cinematic grammar to tell this tale of paagal passionate love!! Huge mention to Soham Majumdar who essays a pitch perfect best friend to Kabir! Go fall and rise in love with Kabir Singh! This ones a massive hit!!!!!</a></p>

Vicky Kaushal and Karan Johar team up for their first horror film 'Bhoot: Part One - The Haunted Ship'

<p>Perhaps one of the most anticipated films of 2019, Abhishek Varman's 'Kalank' sank without a trace despite the hype around it.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The film, produced by Dharma Productions, was Karan Johar's dream project and had an impressive line up of actors in it. Yet, the film gained mostly bad <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/kalank-review-alia-bhatt-varun-dhawans-tragic-love-saga-is-visually-stunning-but-not-too-convincing-211125">reviews</a> and earned little over Rs 80 crore at the box office.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Now for the first time, Johar, while speaking to DNA, has opened up about the film's failure. "To me, when 'Kalank' fails, it is my failure. I’m the older one, I’m the wiser one. I’m the more knowledgeable person about what works and what doesn’t. If the film has faltered, it is largely my responsibility and my blame. Of course, no one person can take the blame, but I choose to because I felt that the material was something I was aware of for not one year but 15 years.”</p>

<p>The filmmaker said the film was a learning experience. “There are two ways I could have gone about this. I could have sunk in this failure or I could have questioned, ‘Why?’ Or I could have said, ‘Why did this happen and let me learn from this.’ Let this be a new 2.0 feeling where I am a lot more analytical. I am putting my projects through a lot more trials and tribulations before it is out there to an audience. When you fail and learn from it, that to me is a success. I will never look at Kalank as a failure. I will look at it as a success because it has taught me how not to fail like this.”</p>

<p>'Kalank' featured Alia Bhatt, Madhuri Dixit, Sonakshi Sinha, Varun Dhawan, Sanjay Dutt and Aditya Roy Kapur in pivotal roles.&nbsp;</p>

Karan Johar: Will never look at 'Kalank' as a failure but as a success

<p>Ace filmmakers Karan Johar and Aditya Chopra have been instrumental in shaping Shah Rukh Khan's career. Both the directors gave Shahrukh&nbsp;and his fans some of the most beautiful films.</p>

<p>Aditya and Karan made their directorial debuts with films starring Shahrukh.&nbsp;Aditya directed Shahrukh&nbsp;in 'Dil Wale Dulhania Le Jayenge', co-starring Kajol, which is hands-down every fan's favourite film.</p>

<p>Shahrukh&nbsp;as Raj and Kajol as Simran will forever be etched in our hearts! While Karan&nbsp;directed him&nbsp;in 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai', co-starring Kajol and Rani Mukerji.</p>

<p>A college drama that gave us Rahul (Shahrukh) and Anjali (Kajol) and lots of sweet memories!</p>

<p>Appreciating the directors for giving him some of his most memorable films and fulfilling his dreams, Shahrukh posted a heart-warming post on his Instagram handle.</p>

<p>"Dreamers r good. But if those dreams r not given a direction they mean nothing. These 2 fulfilled every dream I had, over &amp; above every dream they had for themselves. Adi &amp; Karan. Y share this with all? Cos u should know, more important than ur dreams r those who fulfill them for u," Shahrukh&nbsp;wrote along with a picture featuring him with the filmmakers.</p>

<p>A number of Bollywood stars are set to attend PM Narendra Modi's swearing-in ceremony. Actress Kangana Ranaut, a vocal supporter, and admirer of PM Modi was clicked at the Mumbai airport on Thursday afternoon as she left for Delhi to attend the ceremony that will take place in the evening.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Shahid Kapoor was also spotted at Kalina airport heading for Delhi along with Karan Johar and producer Siddharth Roy Kapoor.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Actress Hema Malini was also spotted leaving for Delhi. Malini has won from her Mathura constituency for the consecutive second time.&nbsp;</p>

Shahid Kapoor, Kangana Ranaut, Karan Johar to attend PM Modi's swearing-in ceremony

<p>Filmmaker Karan Johar’s upcoming ambitious project, ‘Takht’ now has a release date.</p>

<p>Karan shared an Instagram story with the poster of the film in focus that reads, “December 2020”. The poster can be seen on the wall of the Dharma Productions’ office. The story then brings to focus other posters of Karan Johar’s films.</p>

<p>‘Takht’ will have an ensemble cast comprising Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt, Janhvi Kapoor, Vicky Kaushal, Bhumi Pednekar, Kareena Kapoor Khan and Anil Kapoor.</p>

<p>It will be the story of two Mughal brothers, Dara Shikoh and Aurangzeb and their sister Jahanara Begum. While Ranveer will be playing Dara Shikoh, Vicky will essay Aurangzeb’s character. Anil will reportedly play Shah Jahan and Kareena may essay the role of his daughter, Jahanara.</p>

<p>Karan, on an earlier occasion, had spoken about the film. He said, “Takht is the most passionate piece of material that I think I will ever direct. I’m hugely passionate about it. I’m obsessed about the Mughal era ever since I can remember. That’s the one part of history that I was obsessed about in terms of its visual texture, its controversial content, the political betrayal, the love, the lust, the decadence, the debauchery, the madness, the violence, everything. That era is exotic and it’s gorgeous. It’s absolutely beautiful.”</p>

<p>He had also said, “<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/karan-johars-next-takht-will-be-grand-reveals-director-calls-it-k3g-of-the-mughal-era-158870">It’s like the K3G of the Mughal era. </a>But it’s more extreme, there is more betrayal. It has the tropes of court politics. It’s so rich in texture.”</p>

Karan Johar's 'Takht' now has a release date

<p>As Karan Johar turned 47 on Saturday, celebrities took to social media to shower the filmmaker best wishes on his birthday. Fashion designer Prabal Gurung was also one of the many celebrities who wished&nbsp;Johar.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Gurung posted a photo of himself and Johar on Instagram and captioned it as, 'Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya. Happy birthday KJo..' In the photo Karan can be seen hugging Prabal as they pose for the camera. &nbsp;As soon as the photo was posted, fans across social media started speculating on whether Gurung was hinted at a possible relationship with Johar.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Now, almost a day later, the designer has categorically denied being in a relationship with the filmmaker and issued a long statement.&nbsp;</p>

<div class="ui-state-default" contenteditable="false">

<p>Gurung wrote, "Can we have some humour and levity please. I feel very saddened and disappointed to need to say this, but to officially set the record straight: I am not in a romantic relationship with Karan Johar."&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The designer stated that he had posted the photo in “humour and my absolute love of Bollywood, it’s melodramatic flair and the one and only Madhubala... It has subsequently been misconstrued as Karan and me being in a relationship. Karan is one of my dearest friends.”</p>

<p>The designer added that he considered Karan as his mentor, guru, confidante and a big brother, at the time of need. “We’ve seen each other through our respective highs and lows. Karan is someone I deeply admire and respect. Not only has he been there for me, he’s been there for my family as well. I admire his wit, compassion, and his empathy for this world,” he added.</p>

<p>The designer also added that he loved Karan but only as a friend. "These reasons and many, many more is why I love Karan. But as a friend, as a big brother, as someone who I can always count on. To misconstrue my deep love for Karan as a romantic relationship is immature, unfounded and frankly very damaging in the 21st century - In this time of incredible divisiveness and othering that is happening all over the world.”</p>

<p>"I have been in a happy romantic relationship for over five years - with someone else -- not Karan. There is not just one kind of love, one definition of love.”</p>

As soon as the photo was posted, fans across social media started speculating on whether Gurung was hinted at a possible relationship with Johar. Now, almost a day later, the designer has categorically denied being in a relationship with the filmmaker and issued a long statement. No, I am not dating ⁦@karanjohar⁩ He is my dearest friend, mentor, buddy and a big brother. Pls. Kindly read the attachement with my statement and hopefully we can lay it all to rest. Wish you all nothing but the best and love XPG pic.twitter.com/I5UQkIt2fx — Prabal Gurung (@prabalgurung) May 26, 2019 × Gurung wrote, "Can we have some humour and levity please. I feel very saddened and disappointed to need to say this, but to officially set the record straight: I am not in a romantic relationship with Karan Johar." The designer stated that he had posted the photo in “humour and my absolute love of Bollywood, it’s melodramatic flair and the one and only Madhubala... It has subsequently been misconstrued as Karan and me being in a relationship. Karan is one of my dearest friends.” The designer added that he considered Karan as his mentor, guru, confidante and a big brother, at the time of need. “We’ve seen each other through our respective highs and lows. Karan is someone I deeply admire and respect. Not only has he been there for me, he’s been there for my family as well. I admire his wit, compassion, and his empathy for this world,” he added. The designer also added that he loved Karan but only as a friend. "These reasons and many, many more is why I love Karan. But as a friend, as a big brother, as someone who I can always count on. To misconstrue my deep love for Karan as a romantic relationship is immature, unfounded and frankly very damaging in the 21st century - In this time of incredible divisiveness and othering that is happening all over the world.” "I have been in a happy romantic relationship for over five years - with someone else -- not Karan. There is not just one kind of love, one definition of love.”

Prabal Gurung clears the air about his post on Karan Johar, says they are not in a relationship

<p>One of the most relevant and prominent filmmakers of India, Karan Johar may have been criticised for his opulent cinema, but love him or hate him, you cannot ignore Johar and his cinema. Over the last three decades, Johar has not only changed the way we see Indian films but also given us some iconic characters. The films may have not worked always, but these characters years later have remained with us for their distinct style and characteristics.&nbsp;</p>

<p>On Karan Johar's 47th birthday, here are 5 memorable characters from his films.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Kajol as Anjali Sharma in 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai'<br />
<br />
<img alt="kajol" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="50bb7c28-00b0-4a0a-a526-e03d0e13a66b" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/Untitled%20design%20-%202019-05-25T190303.757.jpg" /></strong><br />
A fun-loving tomboy in college who falls in love with her best friend Rahul (Shahrukh Khan), while he falls in love with Tina (Rani Mukherjee), the college's sweetheart every boy desires. Tina's first heartbreak was relatable at so many levels and she broke down, youi heart went out for her even though you rooted for Tina and Rahul's story. Years later, as Anjali turned into a beautiful, graceful woman and finally found her love, we cheered the loudest.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Kareena Kapoor Khan as Poo in '</strong><strong>Kabhie</strong><strong> Khushi Kabhi Ghum'&nbsp; </strong><br />
<img alt="k" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="f6abb839-b9c9-41ca-8060-456df76e488b" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/Untitled%20design%20-%202019-05-25T190939.995_0.jpg" /><br />
A film that was all about loving your parents, gave the Snapchat generation a pop culture icon. The one you would look up to in amazement and amusement; Poo who taught an entire generation of girls to own their confidence, self-love and living life to the fullest. There was so much more behind the pretty face. A simple Chandni Chowk girl who was just bubbly and cheerful!<br />
<br />
<strong>Alia as Shanaya in 'Student Of The Year'<br />
<br />
<img alt="a" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="f7f2b192-81fe-4cfe-a9f6-69064e354b88" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/Untitled%20design%20-%202019-05-25T191351.621.jpg" /></strong><br />
One may choose to argue that Shanaya is a revamped version of Poo. But if only you read between the lines, you will understand. Shanaya is not the one who wants all the boys, she has got everything in her life and believes that everyone needs to be loved. Someone who chose to break away and find happiness in the arms of an underdog and eventually found her way in life.<br />
<br />
<strong>Shah Rukh Khan as Rizwan in 'My Name Is Khan'<br />
<br />
<img alt="srk" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="0be4f0fc-77f7-4993-95f2-58bf67b0607e" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/Untitled%20design%20-%202019-05-25T191641.460.jpg" /></strong><br />
Rizwan Khan probably sets the benchmark when it comes to what you can achieve if you give it your all. After being accused of being a terrorist since he was a Muslim, losing his wife's son and his family's support, Rizwan decided to personally inform the President that even though his name was Khan, he was not a terrorist. Such grit and determination from a man who had literally lost everything in life.<br />
<br />
<strong>Kiara Advani as Megha in 'Lust Stories'<br />
<br />
<img alt="kiara" data-entity-type="file" data-entity-uuid="cc91002e-1c1f-496d-87ea-74f818f6de24" src="//cdn.wionews.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/Untitled%20design%20-%202019-05-25T191846.452.jpg" /></strong></p>

<p>Who would have thought a coy, newly married woman could be so open about her sexual desires! And that's where the fun was in watching young, beautiful Megha in Karan Johar's hilarious film. Megha's husband Paras may get satisfied in bed in literally five thrusts. So Megha decides to take things in her own hand which ultimately has some hilarious consequences. Johar always has had the ability to laugh at himself and here too uses an age-old&nbsp;popular 'Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham' theme song in the most convoluted situation.&nbsp;</p>

Shooting for Karan Johar's 'Shershaah' begins

<p>A massive fire broke out at the godown of Dharma Productions in the wee hours of Tuesday in Mumbai's Goregaon East area. Dharma Production is one of the leading production houses of Bollywood and is headed by Karan Johar and was established in the 1980s.&nbsp;</p>

<p>According to a report in DNA, the fire started at 2:30 am and it took 12 fire engines to douse it. "Investigation is underway to identify the source of the fire," Senior police inspector, Jyotsna Rasam was quoted as saying. "We have disconnected their electric and water supply. Action will be taken if lapses are found," added chief fire officer PS Rahangdale.</p>

<p>According to reports, the fire spread quickly through the godown. &nbsp;A fire fighter also got injured during the accident and was rushed to a hospital, where he was declared stable.</p>

<p>While the actual damage is not known yet but reports indicate that the godown housed memorabilia and artifacts from old Dharma films and all are likely to have gotten destroyed.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The banner released two major films in 2019 - 'Kesari' and 'Kalank'. While the Akshay Kumar starrer received positive reviews from critics and audience alike and went on to earn over Rs 200 crore worldwide, multi-starrer Kalank failed at the box office.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Dharma Productions' next release will be Punit Malhotra's directorial 'Student of the Year 2', starring Tiger Shroff and debutantes Tara Sutaria and Ananya Panday.&nbsp;</p>

<p>A day after HBO released the first episode of season 8 of ‘Game of Thrones’, Netflix India also made some big announcement for its OTT platform users.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The streaming giant on Monday announced 10 new original films across a range of genres and subjects. With these, the total number of films that will be releasing early next year comes to 15. This includes the earlier announced titles like ‘Music Teacher’, ‘Cobalt Blue’, ‘Chopsticks’, ‘Upstarts’ and ‘Bulbul’.</p>

<p>These will be made available to Netflix users around the world by the end of 2020.</p>

<p>In a statement, Srishti Behl Arya, Director - International Original Film, India, Netflix, said, "When Netflix launched in India, we changed the way Indian audiences enjoy their films. Given our diversity, history and culture, India is home to powerful stories waiting to be told to audiences around the world. The depth of talent and vision of our creators is enabling us to create films our members will love. We want to be a home for India's finest filmmakers where their stories travel to more people than ever before.”</p>

<p>Among the new titles that have not been announced before this, ‘Ghost Stories’ will see directors Karan Johar, Zoya Akhtar, Dibakar Banerjee and Anurag Kashyap reunite after ‘Lust Stories’ to tell spine-chilling tales. This will be produced by Ronnie Screwvala's RSVP and Ashi Dua. Another from the same will be ‘Mrs. Serial Killer’ that is directed by Shirish Kunder and produced by his filmmaker wife Farah Khan.</p>

<p>Shah Rukh Khan's Red Chillies Entertainment is producing ‘Class Of 83’. Directed by Atul Sabharwal, it explores the story of an upright policeman-turned-trainer whose students grapple with the complexities of honour, morals and devotion to the nation.</p>

<p>‘Guilty’, produced by Dharmatic and directed by Ruchi Narain, explores the versions of truth that emerge when a small town girl accuses the college heartthrob of rape. Speaking on the same, producer Karan Johar said, "Today a filmmaker with an interesting idea has so many avenues to connect with the audience... As a content creator, there has never been a better time to tell stories."</p>

<p>Sooni Taraporevala has helmed ‘Yeh Ballet’, produced by Roy Kapur Films. It's a story about two boys from low-income families who discover ballet and use it to escape their challenging circumstances.</p>

<p>Another is ‘House Arrest’ that is directed by Shashanka Ghosh and Samit Basu. It is the story of a man who is trapped in his own fears. He locks himself at home, only to find that while he can restrict his interaction with the world, he can't keep the world from entering his domain.</p>

<p>There are others like ‘Kaali Khuhi’ by Terrie Samundra, Manu Joseph's book ‘Serious Men’ adaptation by Sudhir Mishra.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Perhaps one of the biggest draws of Abhishek Varman's 'Kalank' is the fact that it reunites '90's popular pair Sanjay Dutt and Madhuri Dixit on screen after 22 years. And while fans are excited to see this reunion onscreen, Sanjay Dutt admitted that he was nervous initially to share screen space with Madhuri.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In an interview to a daily, the actor revealed how the two bonded over their children while working on 'Kalank'. "It was great to work with her again. I was a little nervous, but she made things easy. She's got terrific command as an actor. We spoke about our kids. In fact, I made my children [Shahraan and Iqra] meet her when they dropped by on the sets," the actor said.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The two actors were rumoured to be dating in the 1990s. The actress eventually married Dr Sriram Nene and the couple has two sons. Dutt, meanwhile, married Manyata and the couple has twins- a boy and a girl.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Interestingly, when Madhuri was asked if it was awkward to share screen space with Dutt, the actress said, "We have worked together earlier. So there was no re-bonding or awkwardness or anything. I have worked with Anil Kapoor ji (in Total Dhamaal) and Sanjay after a long time and it was great. There is a kind of comfort and I know how the scenes will be, how the action and reaction is going to be."</p>

<p>Madhuri plays Bahaar Begum in the film- a role that was initially offered to Sridevi. After her demise, the role went to Madhuri Dixit.&nbsp;</p>

<p>'Kalank' has been produced by Karan Johar and also features Varun Dhawan, <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/alia-bhatt-will-not-be-cating-her-vote-in-lok-sabha-elections-2019-heres-why-210664">Alia Bhatt,</a> Sonakshi Sinha and Aditya Roy Kapur.&nbsp;</p>

<p>A few months back, we had reported how <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/in-pics-hollywood-star-will-smith-visits-taj-mahal-in-agra-170875">Will Smith had come to India</a> and even shot for a song sequence in Karan Johar's upcoming film <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/will-smith-is-going-to-be-part-of-student-of-the-year-2-shakes-a-leg-with-tiger-shroff-170191">'Student Of The Year 2'.</a> Smith was on an India tour and posted photos of his visit and even his meet-up with Johar and Ranveer Singh.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Turns out, Smith was here in India to shoot an episode of his web show 'Will Smith's Bucket List'. Smith ticked off a few things during his visit- driving an auto-rickshaw, visiting Hardiwar and dancing in a big Bollywood movie.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The episode features Smith interacting with Singh who sort of teaches him the basics of Hindi cinema along with Johar. Singh can be seen introducing Smith to a typical Hero's entry in the film with one of Singh's popular songs 'Tatad Tatad' from the film 'Ram Leela' and even recreates the iconic 'Ma' scene from the film Deewar to school Smith about Bollywood.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The Hollywood star even rehearsed his dance steps before shooting wioth the cast of SOTY2 that includes Tiger Shroff, Ananya Panday and Tara Sutaria. The episode was even shared by Karan Johar.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Rumours of Vicky Kaushal's&nbsp;break up with actress Harleen Sethi have been doing the rounds of the internet for a while now. Eyebrows were raised when Harleen unfollowed Vicky on Instagram, then there were a few reports that stated that Vicky was getting close to Katrina Kaif and that lead to the reports. He was even linked to Bhumi Pednekar. But the actor remained mum on the reports until now.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Recently, while speaking to a leading daily, the actor was asked to comment on his relationship status to which the actor confirmed that he has indeed broken up. "<em>Hanji, ekdum single hoon abhi, dekho... akela.</em>" Vicky replied, confirming his single status. On being asked if he is ready to mingle, Vicky said, "Ready to mingle with the audience."</p>

<p>Vicky's statement should put&nbsp;an end to all the speculations and rumours.<br />
<br />
The actor reportedly started dating Harleen sometime in 2008. While he admitted he was in a 'serious relationship' in multiple interviews including 'Koffee With Karan', the actor had shied away from speaking too much about it.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Harleen had put up a photo with Vicky during the success bash of Uri- which was the only photo of the couple posing together on social media.&nbsp;</p>

<p>On the work front, &nbsp;Vicky kickstarted 2019 with a bang all thanks to the success of his film 'Uri: The Surgical Strike'. He will be seen in a horror film and Karan Johar's directorial 'Takht' next.&nbsp;</p>

Rumours of Vicky Kaushal's break up with actress Harleen Sethi have been doing the rounds of the internet for a while now. Eyebrows were raised when Harleen unfollowed Vicky on Instagram, then there were a few reports that stated that Vicky was getting close to Katrina Kaif and that lead to the reports. He was even linked to Bhumi Pednekar. But the actor remained mum on the reports until now. Recently, while speaking to a leading daily, the actor was asked to comment on his relationship status to which the actor confirmed that he has indeed broken up. "Hanji, ekdum single hoon abhi, dekho... akela." Vicky replied, confirming his single status. On being asked if he is ready to mingle, Vicky said, "Ready to mingle with the audience." Vicky's statement should put an end to all the speculations and rumours. The actor reportedly started dating Harleen sometime in 2008. While he admitted he was in a 'serious relationship' in multiple interviews including 'Koffee With Karan', the actor had shied away from speaking too much about it. Harleen had put up a photo with Vicky during the success bash of Uri- which was the only photo of the couple posing together on social media.

<p>The Supreme Court-appointed BCCI ombudsman Justice (Retd) DK Jain has issued notices to India players <a href="https://www.wionews.com/search?q=Hardik+Pandya">Hardik Pandya</a> and <a href="https://www.wionews.com/search?q=KL+Rahul">KL Rahul</a> to appear for deposition for their sexist comments on a TV chat show.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Pandya and Rahul were provisionally suspended by the Committee of Administrators (COA) for their loose talk on chat show "Koffee With Karan" before the ban was lifted pending an inquiry by the ombudsman.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"I have issued notices last week to Hardik Pandya and KL Rahul asking them to appear for deposition," Justice Jain told PTI on Monday.&nbsp;</p>

<p>However, it is not clear how the BCCI will co-ordinate with Pandya and Rahul's respective franchises Mumbai and Punjab to arrange for their deposition in between the ongoing IPL.&nbsp;</p>

<p>It is learnt that they might depose ahead of the April 11 clash between the two teams in Mumbai. &nbsp;</p>

<p>"Both are playing IPL and the itinerary is packed with back to back matches and a gruelling travel schedule," a BCCI official said.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The ombudsman, who is also the BCCI's ad-hoc Ethics Officer, made it clear that for the matter to reach its logical conclusion, the duo needs to depose.</p>

<p>"As per principles of natural justice, I need to hear their side. It's up to them now to decide when they want to appear," Justice Jain said.&nbsp;</p>

<p>It is understood that both players have to appear in person and not through their legal representatives.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The controversial episode was aired in the first week of January, triggering outrage, which prompted the COA to call the duo back from the tour of Australia handing them provisional suspensions.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The two tendered unconditional apologies and their ban was provisionally lifted pending inquiry.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Once Jain assumed his role, the COA handed over the matter to him for the completion of the inquiry.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Jain has also received a complaint about former India captain Sourav Ganguly's alleged 'Conflict of Interest' in his dual role of being the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) president and an adviser to IPL franchise Delhi.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"I am supposed to receive a fresh set of complaints on various issues today. I don't know whether the issue (Ganguly's Conflict) is in this lot or not. As and when I get the details, I will have a detailed look into the matter," said Jain.&nbsp;</p>

Sexist comments: BCCI ombudsman issues notices to Hardik Pandya, KL Rahul

<p>Shah Rukh Khan and Karan Johar have been famous for their friendship for a long time now. The superstar took to his Twitter to support Karan after the latter was trolled mercilessly on social media today.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Karan had apparently liked a tweet in the morning that praised ‘Kesari’ starring Akshay Kumar in the lead. While there’s nothing wrong with this tweet as Karan was the producer of the film, there’s more to this story. The said tweet also compared Shah Rukh Khan and Akshay Kumar in terms of their stardom and star power as ‘Kesari’ performed well vs ‘Zero’ that tanked at the box office.&nbsp;</p>

<p>After Karan liked this tweet, Shah Rukh Khan’s fans took to Twitter and trolled Karan for dissing his good friend Khan over Kumar.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Karan, however, took to Twitter to address the issue and said that due to some “technical problem” this happened. He wrote: "Guys having a technical problem with my twitter account! Strange things are going on! From uploading shoe picture and gibberish to liking tweets I haven't even read and would never even acknowledge! Please bear with me and I apologise for any inconvenience! Sorting it out asap."</p>
