I had help from five people. My husband swooped in."

The filmmaker-actor’s highly anticipated film 120 Bahadur is nearing completion as the team prepares to wrap up the final leg of the shoot. After an elaborate schedule in Ladakh, the cast and crew will embark on a 15-day schedule, starting next week, to bring the film to its final stages. A still from 120 Bahadur Set against the backdrop of the Indo-China War of 1962, 120 Bahadur is inspired by the heroic tale of 120 Indian soldiers, who courageously defended their post against an army of 5,000 Chinese troops.

The logistics are being figured out, but it will start next week and be wrapped before mid-December.” The film is expected to release in mid-2025, with an ensemble cast including real-life army veterans in pivotal roles.

The actress, who is known for films like 'No Entry', 'Golmaal Returns' and others, has shared her plans for her birthday. The actress also said that over the years the meaning of birthday celebrations has changed for her. Though the actress was never in favour of ostentatious birthday celebrations, she now likes to travel and explore different places on her birthday. Talking about her birthday plans, the actress told IANS, "This year, the plan is for a birthday celebration surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of the Austrian Alps. Just the thought of spending the day with my family, taking in the crisp mountain air, and marvelling at the snow-capped peaks would be most magical." She continued, "I will be starting the day with a cosy breakfast, then explore the charming alpine villages together. It's the simple moments, warm laughter, scenic views, and the company of loved ones, that make birthdays truly special." The actress shared that earlier birthdays used to be very ostentatious for her even, though she has never been drawn to ostentatious birthday celebrations. She shared that the glitz and glamour feel empty compared to the warmth of being surrounded by family. She said, "Simple moments with loved ones, heartfelt laughter, and genuine connection mean far more to me than any grand display. To me, true celebration is about love, not a luxury. I mostly now like to travel with my family on my birthdays. They are all I want." "There is nothing happier than sitting against the backdrop of the pyramids in Egypt or the Burj Khalifa in Dubai or the Vineyards of Florence with your children who have unconditional goodwill of love in their eyes, as for my fans they send me enough love and positivity via social media to feel immensely blessed," she added.

Speaking to ANI, Kher opened up about the project, which will be his second directorial venture after 'Tanvi The Great'. On being asked about collaborating on a film in Australia, Kher said, "Yes, I have never sat idle. When I don't have work, I write stories or think about books. About 10-12 years ago, I got an idea for an English film called 'The Return'. I wrote the story, and it revolves around a main character who goes to a foreign country." As Australia is in focus this year at IFFI, Kher said he pitched the idea to Australian representatives attending the festival. "I shared the story with some people from Australia. We are now working on the paperwork and permissions to make the film a reality," he added.

"I came from a poor family. I was the weakest student in my studies, although I loved playing games. Despite this, after 40 years, I have done 542 films and received many awards. It's my attitude towards failure that has brought me here," the actor added.

24 November,2024 07:19 AM IST | Mumbai | The Hitlist TeamWhen journalist-turned-director Vinod Kapri had met farmer Padam Singh and his on-screen wife Heera Devi during his trip to Uttarakhand in 2017, he hadn’t quite imagined that he could tell a story of love and loneliness through their performances. But today, Singh, 80, and Devi, 70, are the unusual leads of the director’s next, Pyre. Revolving around an elderly couple’s challenging life in the remote mountains of Uttarakhand, Pyre premièred at the Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival on November 19. “My team and I were nervous when we attended the film festival because the film is about a remote village in Uttarakhand and stars non-actors. But the moment the last title credit rolled, the response was incredible. People had tears in their eyes; some kept talking to us and others wanted to have a conversation with Amma and Bubu [Singh and Devi],” says the proud director. Pyre is inspired by the true story of an elderly duo in Munsiyari village, where they are among the few living in the deserted village as many inhabitants have migrated. It’s their loneliness that caught Kapri’s attention. “Bubu told me that they are awaiting death as there are only a few people left in the village. Bubu’s wish was to die before his wife [not Devi] did because he couldn’t live without her; his wife had the same wish. I felt it was beautiful how each was wanting to die before the other. While they await the pyre, the love between them is the crux of the story,” says the director, who previously helmed Pihu (2016) and 1232 Kms (2021).Quiz Kapri why he chose to cast the senior actors instead of stars, and he reasons, “To get through established actors and get them to do my kind of film is difficult. I travelled to many Uttarakhand villages looking for old, unknown people. What actors Padam Singh and Heera Devi have done is incredible.”
