Aamir Khan, Kiran Rao, and son Azad are back from Srinagar where the superstar was shooting for Laal Singh Chaddha. They were papped at Mumbai airport, and Rao and Khan made their way in the same car to their Pali Hill home. Last month, the two announced that they are parting ways but Rao will continue to stay with Khan. He owns several flats in the housing complex where mother Zeenat and brother Faisal also live. So it is no big deal for her to reside at the same address for now, till she decides to move elsewhere. The two are in no tearing hurry to stay separately. Mr Perfectionist will soon get busy with the post-production of the film, and Rao will be there to provide a helping hand.

A dream come true
After over a decade, Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s dream project, Heeramandi, is taking shape, not for the big screen but as a web show. The filmmaker is collaborating with Netflix for the mega-series about the red-light district of Lahore set in pre-independent India. Bhansali, who clocked 25 years in the industry on Monday, calls it “an important milestone” in his journey as a filmmaker. When he had first planned the project in 2008, there was buzz that he was keen to cast Rani Mukerji in a pivotal role.
Ready to hit the road
On Tuesday, to mark 20 years of Dil Chahta Hai, Farhan Akhtar announced his next directorial venture, Jee Le Zaraa, starring Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Katrina Kaif and Alia Bhatt. The road trip drama will go on floors next year. Some netizens were amused by the casting due to the Ranbir Kapoor factor. Bhatt is Kapoor’s girlfriend, Kat is his ex-flame and there was chatter about PeeCee and RK when they teamed up for Anjaana Anjaani (2010). Rumours about their closeness during the shoot in the US had made Kat see red, which led to cold vibes between her and PeeCee. The past is now a distant memory. Fans wonder if Akhtar will rope in Kapoor for a cameo.
Keep calm
Ahead of the start of Jug Jugg Jeeyo’s new schedule in the city, Varun Dhawan shared a glimpse of his “nervous moments” from the vanity van. While shooting for Raj Mehta’s film in Chandigarh last December, several unit members, including Dhawan and co-star Neetu Kapoor, had tested positive for COVID-19, which led to the shooting being called off. The comic caper also stars Anil Kapoor, Kiara Advani and Prajakta Koli.

Appearance for a cause
Shilpa Shetty Kundra will make her first public appearance after the arrest of husband Raj Kundra in the fundraiser, We for India, for post-COVID relief work in the country. The virtual show on August 15 will feature video messages of support from several Bollywood stars, stand-up comedy and musical performances.
Trolled again
Kareena Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan are facing wrath on social media for naming their second son, Jehangir, who they lovingly call Jeh. The couple had refrained from announcing the name after he was born on February 21 due to the negative comments about naming their first-born, Taimur. “Taimur and now Jehangir... wah... Saif and Kareena keep their son’s name on a brutal, barbaric Mughal emperor Jehangir. Nothing to say more,” wrote a social media user. Amid the backlash, Saif’s sister Saba Ali Khan posted, “What’s in a name? Love, live and let it be. Children are God’s blessings.”
Work in progress
Mira Kapoor provided yet another glimpse of their under-construction home at Worli. In a video shared on Instagram Story, an assortment of different coloured floor tiles was seen. Shahid Kapoor’s wife also gave a tour of the duplex. The couple is dropping in regularly to oversee the work but it appears that it will take a while for them to move to their new address. The Kapoors presently live on Juhu Tara Road.
All smiles
Shruti Haasan was in the mood for some fun on the set of the Prabhas-starrer Salaar. She shared a picture with director Prashanth Neel, and wrote, “I guess I am a legend because I made him smile. Prashanth Neel is something else. His vision and storytelling skills are really something that I adore.” The unit is shooting for the multilingual action thriller in Hyderabad.
