Same-sex marriage called off in Ekta Kapoor’s series His Storry

Image
As per plans, the gay couple in the new series  His Storyy  played by Satyadeep Mishra and Mrinal Dutt were supposed to get married at the end of Season 1 which started streaming this week. The marriage was called off. And here is why: the producers Alt-Balaji and DING got cold feet about showing a same-sex marriage. One of the actors tells me, “Considering the way things are at the moment in our country I am relieved that marriage didn’t actually happen. The plan was to end season 1 with a Big Fat wedding showing Kunal (Satydeep Mishra) and Preet (Mrinal Dutt) tying the knot. But I think the producers chickened out, at least for this season.” Apparently the marriage may happen in Season 2, provided the atmosphere of intolerance that prevails in the country, dims down. “Otherwise Season 2 may not happen at all,” informs the actor. His Storyy  is the coming-out story of Kunal (Satyadeep Mishra) happily married to S...

Covid has played havoc with human contact even between individuals who are so close to one another as to be considered inseparable.

As soon as Covid raised its ugly head Dharamji locked himself away in his farmhouse outside Mumbai far away from the madding crowd. Says Hemaji, “It is best for his safety. Right now we would rather think about his health than about spending time together. We are going through the worst crisis that mankind has faced in a hundred years.

Lyca Productions takes Robot director Shankar to court

Image
Shankar the maverick filmmaker from the South known for his big-screen fantasies has lately found himself in a bit of a legal jam. First there was the producer of Shankar’s 2005 Telugu blockbuster  Anniyan . Producer Aascar V Ravichandran claimed—and rightly so—that the story and screenplay rights of Anniyan  belonged to him and therefore Shankar was not within his rights to do the remake. Now comes an even bigger blow to Shankar’s epic plans with his long-delayed  Indian 2 finding itself in a legal imbroglio. The producers Lyca Productions have now gone to court to forbid Shankar from directing any other film until he completes  Indian 2 . But will  Indian 2  ever get completed? The film’s leading man Kamal Haasan has been busy with his political aspirations which are prioritized far above his film career at the moment. An informed source reveal, “ Indian 2  has been troubled from the word go. It has b...

SCOOP: S S Rajamouli’s RRR may not release on 13 October this year; may be pushed to 2022

Image
S S Rajamouli’s post- Baahubali opus RRR has got itself into a massive Covid imbroglio. While Rajamouli is adamant to finally release the film on 13 October, as per the latest schedule plan, sources close to the project say the release in the given date seems “next to impossible” One of the actors from RRR told this writer, “How can it release on 13 October? Both Ramcharan Teja and NTR Jr have a lot of pending shooting for RRR . Ramcharan hasn’t shot much this year. He was busy with his other project Acharya (featuring father and son Chiranjeevi and Ramcharan). NTR Jr also didn’t shoot this year. The plan was for them both to shoot and complete the film by July 2021. This now seems unlikely with the new Covid upsurge.” The source says RRR may now be pushed to early next year. “We may come for Makar Sankranti in January 2022. Even that is doubtful at the moment.” This source rules out a digital release for RRR . Also Read:  Makers of RRR launch a new poster starring Ram Cha...

Ajay Devgn helps set up a 20-bed Covid ICU in Mumbai’s Shivaji Park

Image
The second wave of Coronavirus has been far more extreme and has spread its wings across the country. The city of Mumbai is now past it’s peak and has seen a steady decrease in cases. But still, around 4000 people are testing positive for the deadly virus each day, resulting in shortage of hospital beds. The authorities, hence, have been trying their best to increase the beds wherever possible. Bollywood actors, too, have been helping them so that the infrastructure could be ramped as soon as possible. It has now come to light that Bollywood superstar Ajay Devgn has made a significant contribution in this regard. He, along with the help of his colleagues from Bollywood, gave Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) a sum of Rs. 1 crore to help set up a 20-bed Covid ICU. This makeshift hospital has been erected at the Bharat Scouts and Guides Hall, located in Mumbai’s Shivaji Park area. A report confirmed that the said amount was donated to the BMC for the noble work by Ajay Devgn’s o...
