The epic drama The Rings of Power continues its ambitious efforts to bring J.R.R. Tolkien’s legendary works to life for a modern audience. Set in the fabled Second Age, long before the tumultuous events of The Lord of the Rings, Season 2 picks up where the prior installment left off.
We reunite with central figures like Galadriel and Elrond amid fresh turmoil in Middle-earth. The mysterious sorcerer now known as Sauron works to deceive the Elven-smith Celebrimbor, hoping to coax from him creations of terrible and transformative power—the fabled Rings of Power. Elsewhere, tensions emerge among Dwarves, Men, and other races as darkness spreads its influence.
Through it all, celestial battles are waged, mystical realms are explored, and lives intertwine across the vast fantasy realm. This new chapter aims to build upon the show’s foundations while delving deeper into psyches, politics, and magical forces.

Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha Witnesses Drop At The Box Office (Photo Credit – Instagram)
Ajay Devgn and Tabu’s romance in Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha is not getting much love from the audiences. In two days, the film managed to gain only 4 – 4.50 crore, which is much less than Maidaan’s opening number (without the paid previews). And in all fairness, this is not good news.
Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha Day 2 Box Office
On the second day, Saturday, Neeraj Pandey’s film has collected almost 2 – 2.0 crore, dropping from the opening day. In fact, the film is not generating any positive hype for now to aim for bigger and better numbers for day 3.
The romantic drama, also starring Sudhanshu Maheshwari and Saiee Manjrekar playing Ajay Devgn and Tabu’s young versions, was expected to be an out-of-box, much-needed mature romantic story. However, it has clearly not turned out what it was aiming to be.

Don't overlook lesser-known British sitcoms - there are plenty of hilarious shows waiting to be discovered. British comedies may not have as many episodes as American ones, but they still offer unique and rewarding humor. From surreal adventures to heartwarming stories, British sitcoms like "The Mighty Boosh" and "Detectorists" offer a refreshing take on comedy.
Only a few British sitcoms make an impression in the United States, but there are plenty of hilarious shows which deserve bigger international audiences. While shows like Fawlty Towers, Blackadder and The Office have had plenty of success in America, this is merely the tip of the iceberg. British comedy doesn't always translate well overseas, so people don't often give lesser-known British sitcoms a chance.
Another reason that American audiences sometimes struggle to connect with British shows is that there are so few episodes. If someone is accustomed to sitcoms with upwards of 20 episodes per season,...

The upcoming Apple TV+ film Fancy Dance, now playing in theaters before its streaming release on June 28th, is the type of unromanticized character study that should be celebrated. Seen through a double feminist and cultural safety lens, Fancy Dance is patient in the way the character study unfolds, sneaking up on you with its modern-day tale of colonialism still ongoing in America today.
Academy Award-nominated and Golden Globe-winning actress Lily Gladstone is at the center of the story. The Indigenous actress gives a convincing performance as a woman who embodies strength and resilience with an unwavering and calm demeanor when seen. However, when alone, she displays the type of private vulnerability that packs a poignant punch to a sometimes stagnant story.

Authors often find themself overcome with exhaustion because of the constant work they have to do, Akira Toriyama being no exception to the same. In his many decades as a mangaka, whether with Dr. Slump or Dragon Ball, he always gave his best with each chapter that came out. From epic storytelling to carefully crafted character sketches, there was nothing the mangaka didn’t put his heart into.

In the midst of it all, there is a possibility to be consumed by one’s work. Either by obsession or obligation, it becomes less of an option and more of an illusion of choice. Despite it all, every artist tries to put in their best to give the audience what they most want.

And much to our delight, Kendra and Ben found their way back to one another.
Mary J. Blige's Strength of A Woman was a worthwhile companion piece to Mary J. Blige's Real Love, even if it veered closer to Lifetime's usual fare with some of its plots.
Despite roughly 15 years apart, the true, honest, first, and real love between Kendra and Ben finally prevailed, and they're all the better for it.
It was great that we got to catch up with an adult Kendra and Ben, not only following them after they've endured many things in their life and were far more seasoned, but dropping in during a time when we got to see the two battling those real-life problems that come with adulthood, relationships, and experience.
Again, Ajiona Alexus has truly shined in this double feature, enough so that I genuinely look forward to her future projects...

Mumbai, March 5: Fatima Sana Shaikh has been roped in to star in the Hindi remake of Tamil hit film Aruvi. The remake will be directed by E Niwas, who has called the shots on films like Shool, Dum, and Love Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega in the past.
The 2017 Tamil film starred actress Aditi Balan in the lead role. Balan's protagonist Aruvi was deemed a progressive, post-modern symbol of feminism by most viewers.
"I look forward to dive deep into the skin of the character. I am really excited to embark on this journey," said Fatima.
Director E Niwas added, "'Aruvi' is not just a story of a hero. It's a triumph over the labyrinths of life. It's totally euphoric, and a privilege to explore one of the most beautiful cinematic characters I have come across. Fatima Sana Shaikh is an absolutely befitting choice."

The actor who is currently shooting for films does not want to lose out on his music roots and has decided to form a band with his friends. Ayushmann Khurrana has sung Bollywood songs for his films including 'Paani Da Rang' and 'Sadi Galli' (Nautanki Saala).

The year in song in 2013 certainly was a treat for Hindi music fans. With songs ranging to straight-up classical influences, to songs with a Southern tinge plus the new grooves that hit high notes of hard rock, dub step, hip-hop, and punk-rock there was something for everyone. 2013 had some wonderful musical moments and they were not all on the big screen. This year we thought we would change it up a bit and not only highlight the best songs of the movies, we also wanted to shine the light on some of the brilliant performances that took place on MTV’s Coke Studio and MTV Unplugged.

Life has indeed come back full circle for Vivek Oberoi as he completes one decade in the industry. It was on April 12, 2002 when his debut film Company had hit the screens and while a lot of water has passed under the bridge since then, Vivek is content that he is happy to be standing on his feet and still smiling away.
"Company had released exactly 10 years back and so much has happened ever since then. Vivek has practically seen the best and the worst in the years gone by but thankfully marriage has brought certain stability in his life. He is much calmer and composed than before and thankfully controversies surrounding him have also died down. The fact that he is doing five major films today and that too either as a prime protagonist or an antagonist is a testimony to that", says an industry veteran who has seen his career progress quite closely.

The season of remakes continues with Force which stars John Abraham and Genelia D’Souza in lead roles. The film’s a remake of Tamil film Kaakha Kaakha starring Surya (Rakht Charitra) and Joytika (Doli Sajake Rakhna) which was also remade in Telugu as Gharsana. While the Tamil and Telugu versions were directed by Gautum Menon, the Hindi remake is being directed by Nishikanth Kamath (Mumbai Meri Jaan). One thing that remains the same is that Harris Jayaraj (Rehna Hai Tere Dil Mein) who has composed for original and the Telugu remake, has also composed and produced the music of Force. Meanwhile, Javed Akhtar has penned the lyrics.
The album is made up of 5 tracks, one of which is a bonus track composed by Lalit Sen seemingly unrelated to the movie. Surprisingly, no remixes. It features the vocal talents of Shreya Ghosal (‘Bahara’ – I Hate Luv Storys), K.K (Mere Brother Ki Dulhan...

Vivek Oberoi is turning romantic again. He has recently signed an out and out love story where he would be playing the lead protagonist.
