New Delhi, Aug 22 (Ians) Megastar Amitabh Bachchan revealed that actress Madhuri Dixit Nene had adopted her dog ‘Redo’, after the shoot of musical romantic drama ‘Hum Aapke Hain Koun’.
During the sixth episode of the quiz based reality show ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’, Big B had asked contestant Kunal Sinh Dodia from Ahmedabad, Gujarat, “Which animal acts as an umpire in the film ‘Hum Aapke Hain Koun’?” The options were – An elephant, A bird, A cat and A dog.
Kunal gave the right answer, which was the dog.
Big B then says: “Redo is an Indian Spitz dog. He had played the role of Tuffy in Sooraj Barjatya’s blockbuster film ‘Hum Aapke Hain Koun’. In one scene, it was shown as an empire in a cricket match. And after the shooting got over, Madhuri Dixit had adopted the dog.”

Lucknow, Aug 29 (Ians) Doctors at the Sanjay Gandhi Post Graduate Institute of Medical Sciences (Sgpgims) here have achieved a new feat by performing a life-saving rigid bronchoscopic removal of bullet from the airway wall of a youth.
According to doctors, a 20-year-old man with alleged gunshot injury was brought and admitted to the Sgpgims in a critical condition.
The bullet had entered from lower back and entered the chest and was lodged within the airway wall. Because of this, air leaked out in the surrounding area leading to difficulty in breathing.

From her first role on the hugely popular TV show Astitva Ek Prem Kahani and more, to working on Honeymoon Travels Pvt. Ltd. to starring in The Accidental Prime Minister as Sonia Gandhi, German born actress Suzanne Bernert certainly has impressed with her performances.
In this very special conversation, Suzanne talked to Stacey about her desire to be an actress, coming into the Indian film and television industry, her transformation into Sonia Gandhi for The Accidental Prime Minister and even reveals some fabulous inside stories of her work in the industry!
So, was being an actress and part of films always something you wanted to do?
Yes, I am one of these boring people who always wanted to be an actor. Apparently from the age of 4 when they asked me what do you want to be when you grow up, I would say I am going to be an actress.

After being singled out for working with Alok Nath in De De Pyaar De, actor Ajay Devgn says replacing the disgraced actor would have been a monetary blow to the makers of the film. "When the #MeToo movement happened, I along with many of my film industry colleagues categorically expressed that I respect every single woman at the workplace and I would not stand for any unfairness or atrocity against them. Nothing about my stand has changed," Ajay said in an official statement.?"I reiterate I am extremely sensitive to the #MeToo movement. But when circumstances are beyond me, I don't see why an attempt is being made to 'single' me out as being insensitive. This is untrue," he said.
The statement has come after he was criticised by actress Tanushree Dutta and writer Vinta Nanda who alleged that Alok raped her. Tanushree called him "morally bankrupt and?spineless hypocrite...

Tanushree Dutta has slammed actor-producer Ajay Devgn for continuing to work with rape accused Alok Nath in the forthcoming film "De De Pyaar De". The actress called him morally bankrupt and a spineless hypocrite.
"Tinsel town is full of liars, show-offs and spineless hypocrites. And it seems by a large public consensus that the sign post is pointing currently at Ajay Devgn," Tanushree, who had sparked India's #MeToo movement, said in a statement.
"During the #MeToo movement in India, the actor had tweeted and sworn never to work with those accused and now in a surprising and convenient turn of events is working with rape and harrasment accused Alok Nath and supporting him to make a comeback to Bollywood," she added.?
Tanushree said it was possible for the "De De Pyaar De" team to re-shoot Alok's scenes once the allegations against him were made public by writer-director Vinta Nanda.

Updated: Rajkumar Hirani, one of India’s most successful filmmakers, has been accused of sexual harassment. His accuser is a woman assistant director who worked on Hirani’s 2018 blockbuster “Sanju.”

After initially speaking through his lawyer, Hirani issued a media statement on Sunday: “I was completely shocked when these allegations were brought to my notice about two months back.

Last year, the #MeToo-movement started in Hollywood after producer Harvey Weinstein was accused of sexual harassment by several women. The most asked question back then was: When will Bollywood start it’s #MeToo movement? Now, almost a year later it’s Bollywood’s turn.

She told her story in 2008 but wasn’t taken seriously. Nobody supported her. Today various actresses expressed their support to her. This has led to an explosion of stories by women who were sexually harassed by men in the film industry.

The #MeToo movement arrived late in India. But it is a juggernaut that is here to stay, and is having a measurable effect on production.
Aamir Khan Productions is to withdraw from a film where one of the filmmakers is accused of harassment in a 2014 case that is currently sub-judice. “This is an opportunity for the film industry to introspect and take concrete steps towards change,” actor/producer Aamir Khan and producer Kiran Rao tweeted in a joint statement. “For far too long women have borne the brunt of sexual exploitation. It has to stop.”
The movement kicked off with actress Tanushree Dutta accusing veteran actor Nana Patekar of harassment on the sets of “Horn ‘Ok’ Pleasss” in 2008, an allegation she made then and again last week. This was followed by harassment allegations against Phantom Films founding partner Vikas Bahl by an employee. That led to the dissolution of the company.

There is something to be said in favour of the spoken word in the movies, or the dialogue as its known. When sharply written, these words can embrace the characters in layers of unvarnished molten gold.
Sure enough the repartees in Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety(Sktks) just roll off the characters’ tongues making them sound sassy and sombre even when they are being mean and vicious just because it suits the script’s purposes.
And God knows, this film needs no excuse to let the words flow. So full marks to co-writer Rahul Mody and Luv Ranjan for investing the vivacious proceedings with a verbal gusto that I found to be more sparkling in wit and insinuations than the dialogues in any recent film.

Also, the way he does and the manner in which he’s standing and holding his alcohol glass is unlike what Alok Nath has done in other films or is popularly known for.

Directed by Rahul Dholakia
It’s the same old wine—hooch wine—in a not-so-new battle, and I do mean battle. Prohibition in Gujarat is the playground for this pulsating saga of twisted morality. As the Good Cop Majmudar (Nawazuddin Siddiqui) wages an all-out war against hooch seller Raees Khan (Shah Rukh Khan) what emerges from the smoke fire and ashes is a kitschy 1980s-styled potboiler that tells the story of a gangster’s protege who grows into a Robin Hoodlum, the do-dogooder whose Ammi (Sheeba Chadha, so brilliant and yet such a fugitive figure in the screenplay) teaches him that no job is too small or petty.

<img class="size-full wp-image-661161 aligncenter" src="http://www.bollywoodhungama.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/Alok-Nath.jpg" alt="Alok-Nath" width="620" height="420" /> Unlike other star-fathers who form a protective shield around their guilty sons, whenever the youngsters are caught on the wrong side of the law, Alok Nath has reacted sharply and strongly to his son Shivang's drunken driving misdemeanour earlier this week. Apparently Alok, a disciplinarian who has refused to pamper his son silly, immediately took action when his son was booked for drunken driving. The boy was given a serious dressing down, and apparently some blows were also inflicted to drive in the point that such behaviour is unacceptable. Confirming the same, Alok who was trolled with the usual 'Sanskari' jokes the minute his son was booked says, "Shivang has been subjected to some corporal punishment and he's promised me he will never ever drive under the influence of alcohol." Alok Nath's son is all set for a career in film acting and the last thing needed at this moment are such scandals.

Prem Ratan Dhan Payo feels like the Rajshri that brought Maine Pyar Kiya and Hum Aapke Hain Koun in some ways good (family relationships, songs feel timeless) and bad (several very retro elements, themes feel unoriginal), but there’s an important difference: It doesn’t feel nearly as relatable.
The family of Prem Ratan Dhan Payo isn’t even upper middle class; it’s royals upon royals. These are #richpeopleproblems, where the resentment between siblings really comes down to who controls the family wealth and property, with some drama from different parentage thrown in. It’s watchable, but it doesn’t tug the heartstrings the same way.
The story is this: Vijay Singh (Salman Khan) is a prince on the eve of coronation to king (the first point at which you’ll ask, “What era is this?”) when someone tries to kill him. While Vijay is recovering from a fall...

We have a cool treat just for BollySpice readers! Here’s an exclusive image of the original ‘Vijay Dinanath Chauhan’ with the Bollywood maestro Late Yash Johar on the sets of Agneepath (1990). It has left such an impression that even after 22 years down the dialogues echo in our heads. And thanks to the remake, the movie is revived. The original Agneepath had Amitabh Bachchan as Vijay Deenanath Chavan, Alok Nath as Master, Danny Denzongpa as Kancha Cheena, Neelam Kothari as Siksha Chavan.
Plot
The film begins with a morally upright and honest Gandhian Schoolmaster, Deenanath Chauhan(Alok Nath), teaching his son, Vijay about a poem, ‘Agneepath’, which describes ‘The Path of Fire’ which a man must cross in his life. This theme becomes an integral part of the story. Master Deenanath is a well-loved person, who wishes to bring education to the Village, Mandwa. However, his wish is not shared by a corrupt jamindar,...

But the strange thing is that two of the actors of Rajan Shahi’s ‘Sapna Babul Ka Bidaai’ have actually made a collage of all ‘Bidaai’ related articles and have displayed them in the make-up room for all to see.
