Have you heard? It’s a no show for Shehnaaz Gill

Sanjay Dutt, Shehnaaz Gill and Arshad Warsi

Last month, Shehnaaz Gill announced that she was going to America and Canada for a series of shows with Sanjay Dutt and Arshad Warsi. However, we now hear that the Canada outings have been called off. Apparently, the actors even had a press conference before the shows in Toronto and Vancouver. However, the events had to be cancelled due to poor sale of tickets. According to our source, "Despite considerable promotion, press conferences and subsequent coverage in the local media, not enough tickets were sold. So, to avoid losses, the organisers opted to pull the plug on the shows in Toronto and Vancouver."

Aashiesh Sharma has been at the receiving end of hateful messages ever since he shared the poster of his upcoming film, Hindutva.

He says, "It is surprising that the title alone can irk so many people. This is why we need movies like this to put forth the true meaning of the word ‘Hindutva'. I want people who are falling for this orchestrated hate towards Hindutva to wait for the film's release."
