On December 3, Yash Raj Films announced that they would be releasing the war drama in international territories. This means that this is the fourth time this year that the distribution wing of the premiere production house would back a film produced by Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock Films.

Last month, the industry and moviegoers were in mourning as Dharmendra passed away on November 24 at the age of 89. More than a month after he left for the heavenly abode, his much-loved film Yamla Pagla Deewana (2011) is expected to be re-released in cinemas. A source told Bollywood Hungama , “The re-release of Yamla Pagla Deewana will serve as a tribute to the man who was unanimously loved and who left an indelible mark in the world of cinema. The film seems apt for a re-run as it’s not very old, still looks fresh and entertaining and also stars Dharmendra along with his two sons, Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol.” The source continued, “Earlier, the plan was to re-release Yamla Pagla Deewana this Friday, December 19. But due to the Dhurandhar wave, NH Studioz, which holds the rights to the film, has decided to change the plan. Yamla Pagla Deewana is now expected to arrive in cinemas on January 1, 2026.

Sara Arjun has been making the right noises in her Hindi debut as a leading actress in the recent blockbuster Dhurandhar. She plays the Pakistani love interest of Ranveer Singh, who plays an undercover Indian secret agent in the neighbouring country. Sara spoke about the film and more in an interview with us. How did Dhurandhar come your way? Dhurandhar came to me at a very unexpected moment in life. I was settling back into city life. I had just finished my studies in boarding school. I was sure that I wanted to pursue acting. My father (actor Raj Arjun) was preparing to send me to Les Strasberg for an acting course. That was supposed to be the next chapter of my life. Then what happened next? But destiny… had already written a different script for me. Around that time, I got a call from (casting director) Mukesh Chhabra sir’s office saying they wanted to audition me.
