In a statement, Alia Bhatt rubbished the rumours of her being miffed with RRR director SS Rajamouli
Alia Bhatt
Two days after reports claimed that Alia Bhatt is miffed with director SS Rajamouli for her brief role in RRR, she opted to clarify. “In today’s randomness, I’ve heard that I apparently deleted my RRR posts because I’m upset with the team,” she began her statement, requesting everyone to not make assumptions based on something as random as an Instagram grid. “I always realign old video posts from my profile grid because I prefer it to look less cluttered,” she maintained, adding that she is eternally grateful to be a part of RRR and “loved being directed by Rajamouli sir.” Alia summed up saying, “The only reason I’m bothering to clarify this is because Rajamouli sir and the team have put in years of effort and energy to bring this beautiful film to life and I refuse to let any misinformation around the film and experience slide.” But that doesn’t explain why there are more posts related to Gangubai Kathiawadi and even Brahmastra as compared to RRR.

Ranbir reveals Randhir’s health issues
Those who have seen Randhir Kapoor’s pictures of late would have noticed that he is not exactly in the best of health. In a recent media interaction, nephew Ranbir Kapoor revealed that his Daboo chachu is going through an early stage of dementia. After watching his late brother Rishi Kapoor’s swansong Sharmaji Namkeen, he asked Ranbir to tell his father that he is amazing. The Brahmastra actor shared that Randhir asked about his father’s whereabouts and wanted to call him. Apparently, he had to slowly explain to his chachaji that it has been about two years since Rishi left them.
And it’s action!
Sonal Chauhan is back in town after wrapping up a two-week schedule of The Ghost, with Nagarjuna Akkineni in Dubai. The action entertainer, helmed by Praveen Sattaru has been in the news since Kajal Aggarwal’s exit owing to her pregnancy. Jacqueline Fernandez, who was to replace her, opted out soon after. What makes this movie a big deal for the Jannat actor is that she not only pairs up with the south superstar, but also gets to perform some high-octane action scenes. While they are said to share great chemistry during filming, a leaked picture of them sporting Interpol officers’ look during the shoot has piqued a lot of curiosity.
Heroism on hold
The Shahid Kapoor-starrer Bull, which was announced last October and initially scheduled to start early this year, has been deferred. In a recent interview, Shahid stated that the movie is not happening at the moment. The subject demands a certain scale, which remains a logistical nightmare due to the pandemic. Moreover, the film requires extensive VFX and an eight-month production schedule. Shahid has yet to sit with the makers to figure out the next move. Until things are sorted, Bull has been put on the backburner. Meanwhile, he has finished his next with Ali Abbas Zafar and has a web-series lined up with Raj-DK.

Boman in celebratory mode
Boman Irani recently celebrated the second anniversary of his creative venture, Spiral Bound that conducts screenplay writing workshops for aspirants.

The 3 Idiots actor commemorated the occasion with over 175 Spiral Bounders sharing their journey in the presence of guests like Ram Madhvani and Anupam Kher. Talking about the two-year journey so far, the Runway 34 and Jayeshbhai Jordaar actor said, “Listening to their stories and their experience with the initiative was a learning curve for me.

No compromise for Sanju
Sanjay Dutt, who will soon be seen as the menacing antagonist Adheera in KGF: Chapter 2, got emotional while talking about the difficulties in playing the challenging part recently. The actor, who underwent treatment for cancer in the US before resuming his work on the film, said that director Prashanth Neel suggested shooting the climax sequence against a green screen to make things easier for him. However, Sanju, who stated that “cancer was like a flu” to him, dismissed the idea and insisted on shooting exactly the way the director had envisioned it from the onset.
