In another installment of his great series This Day That Year, Subhash K Jha revisits the wacky world of Jhoom Barabar Jhoom.

Everybody in Jhoom Barabar Jhoom which clocks 18 years today, including the director, is an impossible imposter. Abhishek Bachchan poses as a small-town guy in love with a ver-r-r-y poised and sexy Pakistani-French mademoiselle from Paris. Preity Zinta poses as a modern-day Cinderella with a very posh British-Indian fiancee. Bobby Deol, a nerd-optician poses as a cyber-Superman.

Lara Dutta, God bless her luscious presence, is a tart masquerading as a prima donna. Director Shaad Ali poses as an auteur with the wickedly audacious sense of humour of a comic-book aficionado. While the audience, not to be left behind, is supposed to pretend that it finds the bizarre goings-on hilarious.

But sorry, no go. This is Bunty without the bubbly. The joke, if any, is on the creator of this...

Subhash K Jha takes a look back at Madhur Bhandarkar’s Aan: Men At Work and we hear from Shatrughan Sinha about the joy of making the film.

Actually, there are many men at work–both on and off screen—in Aan: Men At Work. While the cop-heroes sweat it out in their humid halos, the men behind the scenes also make their presence felt in rapidfire motions in this emotionless pictureshow . No sobbing Matajis(thank God!) but loads of slithering and sliding Mata Haris.

There’s of course director Madhur Bhandarkar, in his first foray into frenzied action. Big guns with bigger nozzles attached to them—of both the human and the mechanical mind—strut around with such exaggerated machismo , it becomes hard to tell the bad and good guys apart. Bhandarkar treats his heroes and villains (all festooned to the plot with formulistic splendour) like characters in an extended videogame for juvenile grownups.

The passing of Wing Commander L.K. Dutta, the father of actress Lara Dutta, has created a significant void for everyone who knew him. He passed away at the age of 84 in Mumbai, leaving behind a remarkable legacy filled with bravery, dedication, and love. Lara Dutta, along with her husband Mahesh Bhupathi, attended the funeral services to honor a man who had a profound impact on many lives.

Wing Commander L.K. Dutta’s life truly exemplified courage and commitment. As a respected officer in the Indian Air Force, he joined the National Defense Academy at a young age and went on to serve as a helicopter pilot. His bravery shone through during his participation in three wars—1965, 1969, and 1971—demonstrating his unwavering dedication to the nation.

One of the standout moments in his career was serving as the personal pilot to former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. This experience deeply influenced Lara Dutta,...

Talking with Subhash K Jha, producer Suneel Darshan takes us inside the making of his monster hit, the iconic 1996 romantic drama Andaaz, which starred Akshay Kumar, Lara Dutta and Priyanka Chopra.

Andaaz is probably the biggest hit of your career?

Andaaz was a creation of destiny & fate. A sudden fallout of Akshay Kumar’s dates required a quick decision to put up a project .

You swung into action?

I roped in my team of writers Robin Bhatt & Shyam Goel along with a competent director-friend Raj Kanwar who was going through a low phase and Nadeem Shravan to compose the music album, all of which was done in forty days of relentless effort.

Just forty days?!

To bring in a novel effect, I decided to cast fresh girls opposite Akshay , hence Lara Dutta (Miss Universe) and Priyanka Chopra (Miss World) were introduced. The entire movie, shot in Mumbai, Pune and South Africa,...

It has been 22 years since the romantic drama Andaaz starring Lara Dutta, Priyanka Chopra, and Akshay Kumar released. Subhash K Jha revists the iconic film and in a special throwback interview Akshay comments on the success of the film and the powerful combination of Lara and Priyanka.

Andaaz must be the most iconoclastic film about familial ties ever put together for the pleasure of the Hindi-speaking masses. Not a single religious deity is shown in the length and breadth of the film. Instead we have the two love goddesses debutante Lara Dutta and semi-debutante Priyanka Chopra vying for the attentions of Akshay Kumar sometimes separately, at other times together.

Compared with producer Suneel Darshan’s earlier films Andaaz is eminently brash and upfront about its female protagonist’s sexuality. The film offers a curious synthesis of sobs and cleavage.

In the popular ‘Rabba ishq na hove’ number , shot by cinematographer...

Did cricketing phenomenon Mohammad Azharuddin (who fell short of achieving what Sachin Tendulkar or Sunil Gavaskar did) indulge in… ahem…match-fixing? Director Tony D’Souza’s film leaves us unsure of Azhar’s moral correctness. In building a case of his heroic stature in and out of the sports field, writer Rajat Arora doesn’t flinch from asking uncomfortable questions about Azharuddin career moves and personal choices.

As directed by Tony D’Souza the bio-pic shifts gears from the personal to the professional without tripping on its nose. And that no mean achievement. In making a smooth transition from Azhar’s misadventures on the field to his complicated relationship-status , the narrative shows a level of sensibleness and straight-talking directness that defies the film’s unconcealed bravura ambitions.

Azhar aims to be a full-on masala version of the real-life sordid tale of a cricketer who was alleged to be as involved in...

Ramayana Box Office: Ranbir Kapoor & Sai Pallavi Have An Impossible Target To Beat! (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Currently, the hype around Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi’s upcoming film Ramayana is unbelievable. The magnum opus is one of the most-awaited films of Indian Cinema and is expected to arrive in November 2026. The film stars Kannada superstar Yash as Ravana along with Ravie Dubey as Lakshman, Sunny Deol as Hanuman, Arun Govil as Raja Dashrath, and Lara Dutta as Maharani Kaikeyi.

Ranbir Kapoor’s Costliest Film

This would be one of the costliest films of the Indian Cinema as well as Ranbir Kapoor’s career, as the budget of the film is being reported as a massive 835 crore! While some reports suggest that this is the budget of the entire franchise, others report it to be the investment on a single film!

Ramayana Sets A Huge Target!

If the supposed budget...

In another installment of This Day That Year Subhash K Jha revisits 2005’s Kaal, which starred Ajay Devgn, John Abraham, Vivek Oberoi, Esha Deol, and Lara Dutta.

Karan Johar’s Kaal, directed by Soham Shah (not the Tumbbadd actor-director), shows us how horror needs to be done without dumbing down the genre or stepping too hard and fast on peripheral scares…Creaky doors are out, and rustles in the jungle are in. Catch the mood of growing foreboding as a bunch of yell-matched cocky and quip-equipped youngsters step into the uncharted territory of an animal sanctuary.

Wildlife, anyone? You got it! The best thing that debutant director Soham Shah has done is to take his ingenious plot into the great wild outdoors. Unlike Ram Gopal Varma’s Jungle which used bizarre camera movements to stress the predatory mood in the wilderness, Kaal lets you into the secrets of the jungle without getting technically complicated.

Revisiting Bardaasht, Subhash K Jha looks at the one when Bobby Deol did a Sunny Deol in this installment of This Day That Year!

E Niwas’ Bardaasht, which clocks 21 years on April 23, came at a time when the film industry is busy assembling products showcasing cops as romanticized idealistic super-heroes Bardaasht takes a cynical view of the police force. But the reality is this. Every day, law-abiding, god-fearing citizens are vulnerable to a taste of the ugly side of the police force. Doing away with the wispy white-washing of the khaki uniform, director E Niwas (in his third film on cops and cop robbers after Shool and Dum) portrays the grim and gritty reality of the uneasy and often ruinous relationship between the ordinary citizen and the law enforcers.

Filmmaker Vikram Bhatt turns screenwriter to deliver what’s ironically his only original and, by far, the most riveting story ever.

Ramayana: Yash Refuses 13 Times More Fee Than Kgf: Chapter 1! (Photo Credit – Facebook)

Kannada superstar Yash is all set to join the shooting for the upcoming magnum opus Ramayana, directed by Nitesh Tiwari. Starring Ranbir Kapoor as Ram, Sai Pallavi as Sita, Sunny Deol as Hanuman, Ravie Dubey as Lakshman, Arun Govil as Dashrath, Lara Dutta as Kaikeyi, the magnum opus is one of the most awaited films of Hindi Cinema!

Kgf star is joining the sets to shoot his parts as Ravana very soon. Interestingly, this role made him the highest-paid villain in Indian Cinema. Yes, you read that right. Reportedly, the actor was paid a massive amount to play Ravana!

But after the offer, there were lots of ups and downs with Ramayana, with Yash walking out as Ravana and walking in as the producer and then taking up the role free of cost, agreeing to take the producer share in the film!

Celebrating Lara Dutta on her birthday as Subhash K Jha shines a special spotlight on her career. We hear from the actress about being an actress in Bollywood, plus Suneel Darsha, director of her debut film, gives some behind-the-scenes scoop from the set.

She was named Lara after the heroine in her mother’s favourite film Dr Zhivago. In an industry of hyper-hypocrisy, she was honest. No false smiles, no sucking up to directors and heroes. No compromises: Priyanka Chopra and Lara Dutta started off together in my friend Suneel Darshan’s Andaaz. Between the two, I thought Lara was going to be the big star. She had the better role in Andaaz, and she went on to give some good performances in films like Dilli Chalo, Billu, and David. But her career never took off in the way it should have.

The son of Rishi and Neetu Kapoor, Ranbir Kapoor is one of Bollywood’s most bankable stars. His recent movies have all performed well on the box-office including ‘Brahmāstra,’ ‘Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar’, and ‘Animal.’ While Kapoor has dabbled in contemporary and action-packed roles, fans are eagerly awaiting his portrayal of Lord Rama in ‘Ramayana,’ a cinematic adaptation of the ancient epic.

Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, ‘Ramayana’ is set to be one of India’s most ambitious projects, with cutting-edge visual effects and a stellar ensemble cast. Sai Pallavi, Yash, Sunny Deol and Ravi Dubery are set to star as Maa Sita, Ravana, Hanuman, and Laxman respectively. The film further features industry veterans like Arun Govil, Lara Dutta, and Sheeba Chaddha. Slated for a two-part release in 2026 and 2027, the film aims to be a milestone in Indian cinema.

It’s true, though we don’t know a lot about the upcoming Housefull 5, which is a mystery, it is being reported that the new film in the franchise will be a comedy, as only this franchise can do, with a murder mystery twist.

The film, directed by Tarun Mansukhani, stars Akshay Kumar and Riteish Deshmukh, along with many other fabulous actors playing incredible characters (suspects?) including Abhishek Bachchan, Fardeen Khan, Jacqueline Fernandez, Sonam Bajwa, Nargis Fakhri, Sanjay Dutt, Jackie Shroff, Nana Patekar, Chunky Pandey, Johny Lever, Shreyas Talpade, Dino Morea, Chitrangada Singh, Ranjeet, Soundarya Sharma and Nikitin Dheer.

Housefull 5, as we reported earlier, is set on a cruise ship; Akshay said, “Just another day with this incredible cast. Housefull of actors, one cruise, and endless stories to tell!”

While sequels often grapple with comparisons to their predecessors, for Aayush, the real challenge isn’t just stepping into a well-loved franchise—it’s living up to the legacy of a filmmaker who has defined Bollywood’s golden era of romance and drama.

Hailing from a middle-class family in Gurgaon, Haryana, Aayush Kumar’s journey into films is nothing short of cinematic itself. An academic achiever, he secured a 97 percentile in the Cat exam and earned admission to the prestigious University Business School, Chandigarh. Yet, destiny had other plans.

Bejoy Nambiar’s second feature film David (after Shaitaan) interconnects the lives of three characters named David, played with outstanding conviction by actors belonging to three different generations. They three protagonists who by chance share the same name didn’t have to be linked in the plot at all. Each David occupies a distinctive emotional spatial and chronological dimension. Each story is told with a muted flourish that eschews the flamboyant edginess of a recent,highly favoured and over-flavoured genre of Hindi cinema…you know the Anurag Kashyap, Vishal Bharadwaj genre where the characters are darkly drawn from life’s most somber colours.

Why Was This Highly-Awaited Govinda, Tabu & Lara Dutta Movie Shelved? (Photo Credit – Instagram)

Bollywood has seen its fair share of shelved projects, but few remain as infamous as Banda Yeh Bindaas Hai. Directed by the late Ravi Chopra, the film featured an impressive cast, including Govinda, Tabu, Lara Dutta, Boman Irani, and Rajpal Yadav. Shot in 2008, this comedy-drama generated significant buzz due to its star-studded lineup and Chopra’s reputation for delivering hits.

However, despite being nearly completed, Banda Yeh Bindaas Hai never saw the light of day. The film’s shelving was not due to production delays or creative differences but a legal battle that derailed its release. American filmmakers legally sued the film for copyright infringement. Despite a settlement, the movie was never released.
