The makers of Love Again, starring Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Sam Heughan, dropped the trailer of the film on the occasion of Valentine’s Day, and promised viewers a love-filled ride. The film tells the tale of a grieving woman who gives love another chance after a loss. Chopra’s American pop-star husband, singer-actor Nick Jonas has a cameo in the film as they share an awkward kiss. The trailer shows Mira (Chopra), who struggles to move on with her life after the death of her boyfriend. She keeps sending texts at the old number, which is now being used by Rob, as his new work phone. Rob and Mira cross paths at an opera night, and hit it off.
Tributes
Aamir Khan Productions has paid tributes to self-taught artist Lalitha Lajmi and veteran actor Javed Khan Amrohi. Both Lajmi and Amrohi were associated with the star’s eponymous production banner through films such as Taare Zameen Par and Lagaan. Amrohi passed away on Tuesday due to lung failure. The actor was in his 70s. “Javed ji, you never failed to fill the room with joy and warmth,” the post read. In its tribute to Lajmi, the production house said the painter will always be remembered through the lives she touched.
Dining with the stars
Ali Fazal and All That Breathes director Shaunak Sen attended the Oscars luncheon with Tom Cruise, Cate Blanchett, Steven Spielberg, and Guillermo Del Toro. Fazal, being a member of the Academy, was seen at the luncheon representing India. This year, a record number of films from the country are in contention for an award at the Oscars. Sen’s All That Breathes, and SS Rajamouli’s RRR have bagged nominations, and so has Guneet Monga’s The Elephant Whisperers, directed by Kartiki Gonsalves. Fazal was elected as a member of the Academy in 2018, and became one of the youngest members from India to achieve
the feat.
Pick a fight
Action is one genre that Kareena Kapoor Khan has not tried in her over 20-year-old career in Bollywood. But the actor says voicing Black Widow in the Hindi adaptation of Marvel Wastelanders, has piqued her interest in it. She hopes directors will explore female-led action-oriented movies, given the interest of many heroines in this space. “There have been so many actors here doing action-packed roles. But I, personally, haven’t done something like that, like a cool assassin or spy, because I am always shying away from action. Somehow, I don’t know if I would be able to do action, but I know I will be good at it. You never know.”
Addressing the elephant in the room
In the recently released Netflix docu-series, The Romantics, Aditya Chopra opened up on his brother Uday Chopra’s career. “One of the things that people tend to ignore is that every person who comes from a privileged background is not successful. I can articulate it by mentioning my own family. My brother is an actor, and he is not a very successful actor. Here is the son of one of the biggest filmmakers. He is the brother of a very big filmmaker. Imagine, a company like YRF, which has launched so many newcomers, could not make him a star. Only an audience will decide ‘I like this person, I want to see this person’. No
one else.”
Farhan live
Farhan Akhtar has a compelling set list for his upcoming gig at the soon to be held edition of the VH1 SuperSonic music festival. He has revealed that the performance will include songs from his album, Echoes. “I released the album three years ago. There will also be new tracks, and other additions to the list, which will be spontaneous, going by the mood of the crowd.” The 13-track album has songs in English. Other talents like Anne-Marie, CKay, Prateek Kuhad, among others, will also perform at the festival that kicks off on February 24.
Foes turn friends
RRR star Ram Charan addressed the rivalry with Jr NTR and his family, in a recent interview. Their camaraderie on and off screen was loved by audiences. The actors, who have known each other for years, were considered rivals because of their family legacies. While people loved their pairing in SS Rajamouli’s magnum opus, Charan said, “The film just became a medium for us to announce to the world that we are friends. And when it comes to competition, of course, there was competition, but it was very healthy. We always tried to help each other and understand each other’s mental and physical states during the shoot. Our families have been known as arch-rivals in the film industry for 20 to 30 years.”
