Kangana Ranaut, the Indian actor, filmmaker and member of parliament, is set to release her latest directorial and acting venture “Emergency,” a film that examines one of the most controversial periods in India’s post-independence history.

The Emergency, a 21-month period from 1975 to 1977, saw Prime Minister Indira Gandhi unilaterally declare a state of emergency across the country. The Emergency granted the Prime Minister authority to rule by decree, suspending elections and civil liberties.

This period was marked by widespread press censorship, restrictions on civil rights, and the imprisonment of political opponents. The government justified these extreme measures by citing threats to national security and economic instability. The Emergency ended in March 1977 when Indira Gandhi called for fresh elections and was voted out of power, leading to the first non-Congress national government since independence.

Ranaut, born nearly a decade after these events, explains her motivation for making and starring in the film: “I’m ’86 born,...

Bareilly Ki Barfi

Starring Ayushmann Khurana, Rajkummar Rao, Kriti Sanon

Directed by Ashiwini Iyer Tiwari

Early in the plot, we are told that the film’s heroine Bitti is no Sati Savitri. Thank God for small town mercies! In fact she adheres to another kind of stereotyping that Hindi cinema has lately embraced. You know, the small town girl who is hip and happy, sassy and sexy, rides two-wheelers and smokes whenever she can get her hands on a cancer stick, and when a prospective groom asks her if she is a virgin Bitti retorts, “No I am not… are you?”

Ah, long live the virgin bride.

Bitti is from the same feisty school of small-town rebellion as Kareena Kapoor in Jab We Met, Kangana Ranaut in Tanu Weds Manu and Alia Bhatt in Badrinath Ki Dulhaniya. In fact, what Bitti thinks to be streaks of rebellion (breakdancing, watching angrezi films,...

Commando 2

Starring Vidyut Jamwal, Freddy Daruwala, Adaah Sharma, Esha Gupta

Directed by Deven Bhojani

After a week of drudgery at the theatres when we were coaxed into wading through a self-designed epic slush on war and love, it is such a welcome relief to go to the theatres just to have a unpretentious good time. No offence meant. None taken.

Come, unwind with Vidyut Jamwal as he cracks some serious bones and Fera codes, brings India’s wealth back into the country and saves civilization from catastrophe. All done in the vein of a comic book hero who forgot his cape in transit.

Okay, Jamwal is ambitious, And sorry to say, he can’t act. He can fight like a wild untamed beast, though. His reflexes in the action scenes, specially in the hand-to-hand combat with actor Thakur Anoop Singh at the climax on the rooftop of skyscraper, are to die for.

Here’s some fun casting news! Ayushmann Khurrana and Bhumi Pednaker are coming back to the big screen together in Shubh Mangal Saavdhan!

It has been two years since their first outing, Ayushmann and Bhumi will come together again for another quirky love story titled Shubh Mangal Saavdhan, directed by Rs Prasanna, that will be jointly produced by Aanand L Rai and Eros International. The film will be shot in Delhi and Haridwar in a start-to finish schedule and will release in August this year. Coincidentally , the lead pair’s first film was also set in Haridwar.

Producer Aanand L Rai says, “Shubh Mangal Savdhan is a funny and layered story. These are the kind of stories I’ve identified with, right from the time I made Tanu Weds Manu. It is a simple narrative with an interesting bend and the reason I cast Ayushmann and Bhumi is that they...

Aanand L Rai whose love for cinema encouraged him to launch his own home production banner, Colour Yellow Productions in association with Eros International has always stressed on the importance of creative processes and people behind the camera as the first vital steps towards good content. Last year saw a very well acclaimed Nil Battey Sannata and a hit family entertainer Happy Bhag Jayegi from this production banner.

This year, the director-producer is also collaborating with some immensely talented directors from across the board.

Apart from working one of the most anticipated films – Rai’s directorial next with Shah Rukh Khan, which goes on floors this year, he recently joined hands with Anurag Kashyap, who will work on two films. Buzz is one of them is an intense love story-musical, set in a small town. Expect a bouquet of versatile genres this year as Aanand L Rai will also be...

The ongoing tussle between Kangana Ranaut and Hrithik Roshan is just refusing to end. And the former is one fiesty actress who always speaks her mind and never leaves a chance to take jibe at the latter. Earlier this month, Kangana got embroiled in with Hrithik's father Rakesh Roshan for his statement that if his son comes out with the truth, it would shock everyone. To which Kangana, who has never shies away from mincing words, said why does a father always have to come to his grown up son's rescue. To which Rakesh reacted strongly and said he will continue to support his son in his life whether he is 43 or 83 years old. And now, giving a fresh twist to the Kangana-Hrithik saga, the Queen actress recently took another jibe at the Mohenjo Daro actor on the episode of #NoFilterNeha. Kangana went live with Neha Dhupia on the chat...
