Karan Johar has been successful in taking his home production house Dharma Productions to newer heights ever since he had to take on the responsibility following his father and well-known producer Yash Johar’s death in 2004. The filmmaker has now given a major credit for Dharma’s success to their banner’s CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Apoorva Mehta in an emotional post on Instagram. By sharing his picture with Apoorva, Karan said that he came to his rescue to serve the banner despite being settled in the UK with his family. “When my father passed away in 2004… he left a void that perhaps can never be filled … on an emotional impulse I called my best friend @apoorva1972 who was based in the UK and very settled with his wife Bijal… I said “I need you … I have no family to help me build my father’s dream … Dharma productions” without even a pause he said “I will be there” and just like that overnight Bijal and him changed their settled life to walk into an unknown territory and as we en

Javed Akhtar started writing lyrics after Yash Chopra coaxed him to do so for his film  Silsila  (1981). He said, “A film takes a lot of time to be made. When it releases after 1 ½ years,  tab log   bolte hai ‘Bahut acche  dialogue  likhe hai aapne’. Matlab dedh saal lag jaata hai taarif sunne   mein ! With song lyrics, you write the song, it’ll be recorded in 2 days and the same evening, you’ll get to hear praises! Hence, I started to enjoy writing lyrics.  Yeh aasaan bhi hai aur

Darr  (1993), an important film in Indian cinema, completed 30 glorious years on December 24. It starred Shah Rukh Khan in the breakthrough role of an obsessive stalker. The way he performed the part and his  ‘K-K-K-Kiran’  dialogue made him a force to reckon with. Juhi Chawla and Sunny Deol also starred in this musical drama, which was produced and directed by Yash Chopra. A lot has been said about the film’s casting, issues that cropped up between Shah Rukh and Sunny etc. However, many are not aware of Hrithik Roshan’s contribution to  Darr . On the 30th anniversary of this movie, we will throw light on this lesser-known aspect. Uday Chopra, who was an assistant to Yash Chopra in  Darr , revealed in an old video to his father that he and Hrithik Roshan came across a Hollywood thriller,  Dead Calm (1989). They recommended it to Aditya Chopra. He loved it so much that it germinated into  Darr . Uday also stated in the video that  Darr  was a title that Hrithik Roshan had used for wh

As Darr completes 30 years today, Juhi Chawla, who became the biggest national crush as Kiran with the film, reveals the film to be one of the most important films that she has ever done in her career! The Yash Chopra directorial also featured Sunny Deol as the leading man and Shah Rukh Khan as the antagonist with Anupam Kher, Tanvi Azmi, among others playing pivotal roles. Speaking about it, Juhi said, “ Darr is one of the highlights of my career. One of the most important films I have done. Before Darr , I worked with Yash Chopra ji in Chandni , and it was just a tiny bit. At that time, I was very new but still he cast me opposite Vinod Khanna ji and I had that little guest appearance. That was the first time I faced the camera with Yash ji directing me, which was just two and half days of work.” She added, “After that I worked in Pam Chopra ji’s production which was also a YRF film – Aaina . And I have said this before, Aaina was the first time where I was called to Honey ji’s

Shah Rukh Khan’s September 2023 film  Jawan  and the recent release  Dunki  are poles apart, in terms of scale, grandeur and commercial elements. However, in both films, Shah Rukh Khan plays both a younger character and also its older version. SRK, in a rare instance, answered some media queries as part of the promotions of  Dunki . He was asked whether it was deliberate that he chose to play older characters in his recent films. Shah Rukh Khan said, “No, it’s not a conscious effort. I am 58 now.  Mujhe aisa lagta hai ki mujhe  age-centric roles  karne chahiye . If I get an opportunity in a film (then why not). The older character in  Jawan  is more in-your-face. I won’t call it a caricature but it’s an over-the-top old person. In  Dunki , it’s quite real. In  Dunki , it’s about a soldier  ka vaada . So, it’s a journey of a character and that is the most intriguing quality of the film. It spans 25 years.” Shah Rukh Khan continued, “I would say that I have been age-honest the first t

The thing about sequels is that you would expect to see the magic of its predecessor reflect somewhere. There are certain expectations of the sequel from the viewers. Soundtrack #1 was an instant favourite due to the breezy chemistry between South Korean actors Park Hyung Sik and Han So Hee. They were paired up for the first time on-screen. Similar expectations were levied onto its sequel Soundtrack #2 which premiered earlier this month. Noh Sang Hyun aka Steve Noh and Geum Sae Rok star as the leads in the anthology sequel. Taking the idea of Soundtrack #1 ahead, Soundtrack #2 , a six-episode short story , also features a story of love and heartache backed by melodious tunes. Ji Su Ho [Noh Sang Hyun] and Do Hyeon Seo [Geum Sae Rok] were college lovers but broke up because of their differences and contrasting ideologies. Neither of them fully moved on from the past, but they carried on with their lives. Now, four years later, the two coincidentally crossed paths. However, even in di
