Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan have undoubtedly been two of the biggest and most bankable actors in the Indian film industry. As you know, they have never starred together as lead actors in a film. They had cameos in films like Laal Singh Chaddha and Luck by Chance but did not share screen space in these films.

The Film That Almost Starred Aamir Khan & Shah Rukh Khan

Back in the 90s, the two superstars were almost cast together in a romantic comedy film, which has gained a cult following. The film’s name is Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa. According to an earlier report by News 18, Aamir Khan was the first choice to play the lead role of the adorable character Sunil in Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa. And Shah Rukh Khan, who was trying to make a mark in the film industry,...

The venture will launch with a horror film and a dedicated production fund aimed at supporting filmmakers from the Indian subcontinent who lack access to traditional industry and studio funding.

The fund will accept submissions from July through September 2025, with winners to be announced in October. This initiative represents the first major activity for the company, which was founded by U.A.E.-based entrepreneur and 2023 Mrs. Earth, Debanjali Kamstra, alongside Indian film industry veteran Sandhya Ramachandran, who has had stints as creative director at Rose Movies, film agent to Bollywood star Katrina Kaif and managing Bollywood superstar Salman Khan’s Being Human brands portfolio and as CEO of Ubt, his talent agency.

This time, it takes a while for Tom Cruise and the audience to get a hang of it. By the time Ethan Hunt is hanging from the plane for his (and civilization’s) dear life, the scriptwriters (Christopher McQuarrie and Erik Jendresen) have finally decided to stop faffing around.

A large part of the throbbing procedure here is faffing—suave, sleek, sexy faffing, but faffing nonetheless. In how many ways and how many times will Tom Cruise’s Ethan Hunt save the world before he needs to save himself?

Cruise, still insanely handsome, has begun to look rough around the edges. His performance is also redolent of fatigue, much like the Indian superstar Salman Khan, except for the fact—and this is the clincher—Cruise still does the heart-in-the-mouth stunts himself.

The airborne peccadillo at the cliffhanging climax is incontrovertibly quixotic, much in the way that boys’ battery-operated toys are.

Thudarum Box Office: Fails To Be Mohanlal’s Most-Profitable Film Post-covid ( Photo Credit – Instagram )

After delivering the highest-grossing Malayalam film globally with L2: Empuraan, Mohanlal had another historic success within a month. His Thudarum came out of the syllabus and surpassed everyone’s expectations. While it was expected to do well, no one ever thought that it would comfortably cross 200 crores. However, at the Indian box office, it has failed to emerge as Laletan’s most profitable film despite making big earnings. Keep reading for a detailed report!

Directed by Tharun Moorthy, the Mollywood crime thriller has driven massive footfalls due to strong word-of-mouth. Unlike L2: Empuraan, it received a positive response from all over and is running successfully even in the fourth week. Recently, it surpassed the lifetime collection of Empuraan to become Mollywood’s second highest-grossing film in India. After this achievement, it maintained a stronghold on the fourth Friday.

Taare Zameen Par was a monumental success, and Aamir’s character of an art teacher (Nikumbh) was widely appreciated. However, do you know that the role was never intended for him in the first place?

Amol Gupte, who was the original writer of the movie, wanted to make it with Akshaye Khanna. He had seen Akshaye’s work in Dil Chahta Hai and requested Aamir to arrange a meeting with Khanna so that he could narrate the script to him. However, since the movie was about the issue on children, the ace actor wanted to hear the script himself before passing the message to Akshaye.

It would be safe to say that Aamir Khan must work really hard to regain the trust of the audience. He’s coming up with the spiritual sequel to Taare Zameen Par, but the response isn’t at par.

Misses the 3 crore streak

There is no visible competition until the arrival of Housefull 5 on June 6, 2025. However, there are two big Hollywood releases (Final Destination Bloodlines and Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning) and the impact is to be seen. With a freeway so far, Raj Kumar Gupta’s directorial has maintained a good momentum at the Indian box office. On day 15, Raid 2 earned 2.98 crore, as per the official figures. It witnessed a drop of 10% compared to 3.32 crore earned on Wednesday.

The first time I met her she was shooting for that marathon movie called Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam with Salman Khan in a bungalow. “I wanted to meet you to give you a piece of my mind? You had said some very nasty things about my song ‘Choli ke peechhe kya hai’,” she greeted me with a sneer. It was rather strange that she wanted to give me a piece of her mind when it was she who had the nation aghast with her suggestive song. Anyway the ice broke (though it never melted) and we chatted. Salman peeped in later, saw me sitting with Madhuri, froze and left. When I was ready to do the same, I realised to my horror that Salman had bolted the door of the makeup room from outside. She grinned in embarrassment and shouted for help. I left.”

Many years later I met Madhuri...
