EXCLUSIVE: No pre-release interviews for Aman Indra Kumar and Akanksha Sharma; are the Tera Yaar Hoon Main makers following the Saiyaara-Deewaniyat model? Milap Zaveri says, “We want to keep the mystery alive”

Mass filmmaker Milap Zaveri is gearing up for the release of his next directorial, Tera Yaar Hoon Main , which marks the debut of Aman Indra Kumar and also stars newcomer Akanksha Sharma. Interestingly, neither of the two young actors will interact with the media before the film’s release. There will be no promotional events or pre-release interviews featuring them, immediately inviting comparisons with the strategy adopted for Saiyaara (2025). The romantic drama introduced Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, both of whom stayed away from the media before its release, and the strategy worked wonders. In an exclusive conversation with Bollywood Hungama , Milap explained the reason behind keeping Aman and Akanksha away from interviews and addressed whether the makers were following the ‘ Saiyaara model’. Milap Zaveri explained, “It’s not just Saiyaara . Even before the release of my film Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat (2025), Harshvardhan Rane and Sonam Bajwa did not speak to the media. We are f...

Post-Alpha debacle, what is the future of YRF Spy Universe? Trade experts give their suggestions, “Reboot the series; make Pathaan 2, starring Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Hrithik Roshan, Alia Bhatt, Sharvari; avoid bikini scenes”

-

Three years ago, the YRF Spy Universe was arguably the most popular cinematic universe in Indian cinema. However, the failure of War 2 (2025) dealt a setback to the franchise, and Alpha ’s disappointing performance has further raised questions about its future. Amid this uncertainty, there is renewed hope that YRF will move ahead with Pathaan 2 , starring Shah Rukh Khan. We spoke to trade experts to understand what lies ahead for the Spy Universe and how it can regain its lost momentum. Trade veteran Taran Adarsh said, “The Spy Universe needs a reboot.” However, he doesn’t buy the perception that it’s the end of the franchise, “Never say never. There will be speed breakers on the way. It doesn’t mean that we stop driving.” He added, “Look at the past Spy Universe films, like Ek Tha Tiger (2012), Tiger Zinda Hai (2017), Pathaan (2023), etc. These films were thoroughly entertaining. But now, a change is needed. The audience has seen that in so many films. Moreover, Dhurandhar has ...

A source who visited Olympia on Sunday, July 12, a day after The Odyssey team’s visit, told Bollywood Hungama , “There has clearly been an increase in footfalls following their visit. We saw customers asking the staff, ‘Nolan waale table pe baithna hai !’ It is amazing how this brief yet significant visit by Christopher Nolan, Matt Damon and Tom Holland has further added to Olympia’s popularity.” Bollywood Hungama exclusively spoke to Usama Saji, owner of Olympia Coffee House, who confirmed, “There has indeed been an increase in the number of customers since their visit.

Did Dhurandhar affect Alpha’s box office outcome? Trade experts share their views: “You can’t escape comparison with Dhurandhar. It’ll remain in front of you always”

-

Alpha has not worked at the box office and it is believed that it got affected due to the change in audiences’ tastes after Dhurandhar . We spoke to trade experts over this perception. Trade veteran Taran Adarsh said, “Post- Dhurandhar , the mindset towards spy thrillers, especially with the Pakistan angle, has changed completely. Logon ki soch badli hai and they have voiced that as well.” Trade analyst Atul Mohan commented, “There’s some negativity about the Spy Universe. A section of the netizens is trying to run down the film. They allege that it’s soft towards Pakistan. Moreover, they compare it with Dhurandhar . But this film was shot way before Dhurandhar . So, it was illogical to compare the two films. It was unfortunate that the film got delayed for certain reasons. The teaser didn’t generate the desired response.” At the same time, he said, “You can’t escape comparison with Dhurandhar . It’ll remain in front of you always. Whenever people talk of the Spy Universe, the fi...
