Actor Jaideep Ahlawat, who is receiving a lot of acclaim for his work in the recently released streaming title ‘The Broken News 2’, shared that he has a WhatsApp group with fellow actors and longtime friends, Rajkummar Rao and Vijay Varma.
This WhatsApp group is called the ‘Majboot Actors Association’. The friendship between these actors dates back to their days as students at the Film and Television Institute of India (Ftii). The three of them graduated from Ftii in 2008.
While Vijay went down south to find work in the early phase of his career, Jaideep got his break with the Akshay Kumar-starrer ‘Khatta Meetha’ in 2010. Rajkummar Rao, too, got the cult-classic film ‘Love Sex Aur Dhokha’ in 2010.
Vijay made noise in 2016 with the film ‘Pink’ in which he starred in a negative role. Later, he starred in ‘Gully Boy’, and established himself as one of the most sought-after actors in Hindi cinema.

After a smartly executed curiosity driven campaign, the promo of Gabbar Is Back has finally been unleashed.

For Akshay Kumar, the film pretty much stands as third in the trilogy of his social action entertainers after Holiday and Baby.
We bring to you 10 reasons that make the Gabbar Is Back promo special, as a result of which it warrants repeat viewing.
Recall value of the title
Gabbar – The name has been iconic for four decades now. More than Mogambo. More than Shakaal. More than Dr. Dang. More than the rest. The greatest villain ever has also been the most moveable of them all. No wonder, when a film releases with Gabbar in the title, it enjoys immense recall value with at least three generations.

No doubt Priyadarshan's Hera Pheri was a turning-point in Akshay Kumar's career .And never mind if their subsequent collaborations like De Dana Dan and Khatta Meetha didn't quite match up. Priyadarshan and Akshay are all set to team up again this June with a film that would have a great social resonance. Says a source, "So far Priyan's films with Akshay have all been time-pass comedies, and all of them have been remakes. This time Akshay has asked Priyan to do a film that has tremendous socio-political significance. Both Akshay and Priyan are done with remakes. So on Akshay's request Priyan is writing an original film this time." Priyadarshan confirms, "Yes, I am doing a hard-hitting subject with Akshay. I think we both need to move out of our comfort zones. My film this time with Akshay would be topical and original." Priyan says it would be his comeback into Bollywood.

After the success of Wanted and now Rowdy Rathore, Prabhu Deva is here to stay! Next up is a film to be directed for Ramesh Taurani’s Tips banner which will launch his son Girish Taurani.
Ramesh Taurani has rubbished all rumours for now regarding the project and promises an announcement next week clarifying all the details. However, here is what the rumour mills have to say.
The film is said to be a remake of Prabhu Deva’s Telugu blockbuster Nuvvostanante Nenodantanna which had originally starred Siddharth (Rang De Basanti) and Trisha Krishnan (Khatta Meetha). The immensely successful film made Siddharth and Trisha recipients of Filmfare Best Actor and Actress awards. It has also seen remakes in Tamil, Bengali, Kannda and Oriya, so a Hindi remake was just a matter of time.
Whilst it is quite undisputed that Girish Taurani will be the male lead, the female lead has been a more disputed topic.

The Hindi film industry failed to set the cash registers ringing in 2010 despite big budget outings starring A-listers and accompanying marketing blitzkrieg. With only five hits, Bollywood suffered a net loss of about Rs.300 crore ($66 million) this year, say experts.'This year has not been very good. The only hits in 2010 have been 'Dabangg', 'Golmaal 3', 'Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai' and 'Peepli Live' that have saved the year from being a disaster,' trade analyst Komal Nahta told Ians.'Love Sex Aur Dhokha (LSD)', shot with a digital camera, rounds up the top five.'Balaji Motion Pictures is proud of making quality content, that too within feasible budgets...That is how two of our films ('Once Upon...' and 'LSD') have made it into the top five films of 2010. This is perhaps the perfect recipe for a hit,' Girish Johar, head of acquisition and distribution,...

It has been a known fact that Akshay Kumar, who has been in the industry for a couple of decades now, has immense love for commercial cinema. However in the current year, he has experimented in each of his films by playing a loser (Housefull), a common man (Khatta Meetha) and a naive young man (Action Replayy). No wonder, it is obvious that being Mr. Smart in Tees Maar Khan must have been a different experience altogether for Akshay in recent times. "Absolutely", Akshay immedia...

It is well-known fact that Sanjay Dutt is a family man. Apart from his new-born twins with whom he spends every free minute, he also cares for his nephew Nilesh Sahay who is about to make his debut in the Hindi film industry. Nilesh is the son of yesteryear actress Zaheeda, a niece of Sanju's mother Nargis, and when Nilesh decided to become an actor, Sanju offered at once to give him every support for his career. Though he did not launch Nilesh himself, Sanjay guided Nilesh through his career decisions and kept close track on his nephew's debut film Angel directed by Ganesha Acharya, who is a good friend of Sanju and has worked with him as a choreographer before.

October 28, 2010: After ‘Housefull’ and ‘Khatta Meetha’, Akshay Kumar is ready with his third release of the year – ‘Action Replayy’. This is not all as before the end of 2010, he would also be seen in ‘Tees Maar Khan’. While he goes ahead at an unrelenting pace, his contemporaries too have been doing well for themselves.
While Aamir Khan has pretty much created a world of his own, especially so after ‘3 Idiots’, Salman has come back with a bang as well after ‘Dabangg’. Meanwhile, Shah Rukh is waiting for the kill with ‘Ra. 1′ and ‘Don’ lined up. So does one see some good battle beginning once again in 2011 between all these actors.
