Surrogate advertising for products like cigarettes, tobacco, and alcohol has long been a topic of debate. Celebrities, including Bollywood stars, have frequently promoted pan masalas, a practice known as the “Vimal Cinematic Universe.” Tiger Shroff, a prominent youth icon, has now joined this controversial group, appearing in a recent pan masala ad alongside veterans Ajay Devgn and Shah Rukh Khan.
The ad, which has sparked concern, features Ajay and Shah Rukh stuck in traffic, with the latter suggesting they start using ‘Vimal Elaichi’. The scene then shows the product being showered everywhere, turning the surroundings ‘kesariya’. Tiger makes a dramatic entrance, and Amyra Dastur is also part of the campaign. Shah Rukh and Ajay invite Tiger to join them in their car, which has raised eyebrows given Tiger’s fitness icon status.
Known for his dedication to Mixed Martial Arts and gymnastics, Tiger’s endorsement of pan masala products seems out of character.

Bambai Meri Jaan
Starring Kay Kay Menon, Avinash Tiwary, Kritika Kamra, Nivedita Bhattacharya, Amyra Dastur
Directed by Shujaat Saudagar
One thing about the enduring interest in lives of smugglers and gangsters: they provided a lot of employment to Mumbai’s population back in the 1960s, 70s and 80s when they were active; they continue to provide employment to actors and technicians who are part of these never-ending sanguinary sagas of nebulous loyalties and sticky alliances.
Bambai Meri Jaan based on S. Hussain Zaidi’s Dongri to Dubai: Six Decades of the Mumbai Mafia is a slowburn crime thriller with criminal characters trapped in a sordid system that fosters treachery. At a running time of almost ten hours, it gives us a lot of time to think for an answer to that ultimate crime conundrum: does crime pay? How much did Excel Entertainment make out of this deal. By the way?...

Mumbai, Sep 12 (Ians) Shujaat Saudagar, the director and co-creator of the upcoming period crime-drama streaming series ‘Bambai Meri Jaan’, has said that actor Kay Kay Menon was a perfect choice for the part of the cop – Ismail Kadri in the series, and casting him was a “no brainer”.
‘Bambai Meri Jaan’, which also stars Avinash Tiwary, Kritika Kamra, Nivedita Bhattacharya and Amyra Dastur, narrates the life and rise of a Dara Kadri, a tale told through the lens of a father, Ismail Kadri, an honest cop torn between his duty and responsibilities.
Talking about Menon’s casting, Shujaat said: “Kay Kay was a no-brainer, I had sent a script out to him. I have been trying to work with him for almost 20 years and things have never materialised. If there’s anyone who could do justice to the role of Ismial Kadri, it was this spectacular actor.”

Sharing the dimensions of her part, Kritika said: “Habiba is a woman of many shades. She is stubborn like her father, courageous like Dara and is fiercely loyal like him. At the same time, being the youngest and the only woman among the siblings. She idolises her brother Dara and shares a special bond with him which influences his decisions and actions as well.”

Bambai Meri Jaan takes viewers back to the city of Bombay in the 1960s, as it introduces a world of gang wars, guns and deceit, at the core of which lies the relationship between a duty-bound police officer father and his gangster son.
Kay Kay Menon takes on the role of a honest cop Ismail Kadri who realizes that his son Dara Kadri (Avinash Tiwary), has chosen the path of crime. “Sheher saaf karte karte mera ghar ganda ho gaya,” says the cop, lamenting how the process of cleaning the city has instead stained his home.

For instance, Tigmanshu (Dhulia) was my senior in National School of Drama, Kumud Mishra was junior to me, and so was Zeeshan Ayyub. We all come from the same school and were meeting again on the set. I also knew Sunil (Grover) and Gauahar (Khan) from before. So, we were reconnecting," Annup told Ians.
"But I had never met Saif and Dimple ji before. I must say, few exercises were helpful for all of us to unite and connect. Our director Ali (Abbas Zafar) kept a table reading session for three days where all of us would gather and read the script. Those were the time when we connected,...

Tandav opens with a raging kisaan andolan in Greater Noida over a government decision to turn farm land into a Sez for urbanisation. Soon, the drama throws in students chanting Azadi slogans in a campus called Vnu. A news channel is shown catering to the vested interest of the political power set.

Amyra Dastur features in the upcoming multistarrer series Tandav starring Saif Ali Khan in a pivotal role. She says Saif made her feel special and that touched her, as a budding actress.
"I have worked with Saif sir in 'Kaalakaandi' and during the script reading session (of Tandav) I met him again. I was just reading my script, sitting there along with everyone, thinking Saif sir wouldn't remember me. So, I could not even say 'hello' to him. Suddenly, Saif sir, from across the table, said, 'Hey you, you were with me in 'Kaalakaandi' right, what's up? how are you?'" recalled Amyra, while opening up to Ians.
"He recognised me!! That was a starstruck moment for me! I called my mother and told her what just happened. It feels so special when someone like Saif Ali Khan, an actor of that caliber remembers you. It is special!
