Imtiaz Ali is known for making films that focus on love and personal journeys. Some of his popular films include Jab We Met, Rockstar, Tamasha, and Love Aaj Kal. These films are still liked by many people even today.

The director is currently busy promoting his upcoming film Main Vaapas Aaunga. During a recent interview, he spoke about whether he plans to make sequels to Jab We Met and Tamasha. Both films are popular among audiences. Jab We Met starred Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan, while Tamasha featured Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone.

Imtiaz Ali said that he does not have plans to make sequels to these films. He mentioned his experience with Love Aaj Kal, which starred Kartik Aaryan and Sara Ali Khan. The film did not do well with audiences or at the box office.

He said, “I do keep hearing about it. To those who ask me about them, I say, ‘Love Aaj Kal 2 bhi toh banayi thi na, voh toh itni achhi nahi gayi.’ I feel that if there’s something that comes that strongly to me as a maker, then I will.” He further added, “But I don’t think, especially for Jab We Met, I won’t. Some things are best left untouched.”

He also spoke about how he approaches filmmaking. Imtiaz Ali explained that he does not like to plan films just to earn money or treat them as business decisions. According to him, making a good film requires a real connection with the story. He believes filmmakers should focus on telling stories they truly care about rather than thinking only about results.

His upcoming film Main Vaapas Aaunga features Diljit Dosanjh, Sharvari, Vedang Raina, and Naseeruddin Shah. The film is scheduled to release on June 12.

Akshay Kumar is busy promoting his upcoming film Bhooth Bangla, and the team is following a traditional style of promotions by visiting different cities. Recently, the actor visited the Delhi NCR region along with his co stars Wamiqa Gabbi and Rajpal Yadav. During their visit, they stopped at Gaur City Mall, where something unexpected happened.

A huge number of fans gathered at the mall to see the actors. Videos from the event quickly spread on social media, showing thousands of people filling up every corner of the mall. The crowd was so large that many people were seen standing on escalator railings and leaning over from higher floors, which looked quite risky.

The actors came on stage set up on the ground floor and interacted with the audience. Akshay Kumar looked surprised by the turnout and even said that in his 36 years in the film industry, he had never seen such a massive crowd inside a mall. The camera showed people packed tightly across all floors, cheering loudly for the star.

While many people praised the actors for handling such a big crowd and keeping everyone entertained, the situation also raised concerns. Some social media users pointed out that the crowd behavior was unsafe. Videos showed people pushing, climbing, and even damaging promotional materials like standees and displays while leaving the venue.

Several users online criticised the lack of discipline and basic civic sense. Some comments urged fans not to risk their lives just to see a celebrity, while others said such behaviour reflects poorly on public awareness and responsibility. A few videos also showed the condition of the mall after the event, with damaged property and a messy environment.

Soniya Bansal, known for her appearance on Bigg Boss, is ready to take a big step forward in her creative career with her upcoming film The Last Breath. This project is very special to her because it not only highlights her growth as an artist but also carries an important social message.

Soniya will be seen sharing screen space with Shiv Thakare. The two have worked together before in the music video Koi Baat Nahi, and their reunion for this film has already created excitement among fans. Their on screen chemistry and popularity are expected to add to the film’s appeal.

Talking about the story, Soniya explained that the film is inspired by real life events. It tells the story of a strong woman who stands up against the cutting of trees. The film shows her fight to protect nature and the challenges she faces due to deforestation. Through this story, the makers want to raise awareness about environmental issues and show how one person’s courage can make a difference.

Soniya also confirmed that she will be acting in the film and playing one of the lead roles alongside Shiv. This marks an important moment in her career as she takes on a meaningful and impactful character. The film is expected to present her in a new and powerful light.

The shooting of the film is set to begin on 13th April. The team is focused on bringing out the raw and emotional side of the story in a realistic way. The film is being directed by Subhash Kale, and Soniya expressed her trust in his vision. She believes that the film has been made with a strong purpose and hopes that it will connect with audiences not just in India but across the world.

One of the most exciting parts of this project is its international ambition. Soniya shared that the film is being made with the intention of reaching Cannes Film Festival. With its meaningful story and global theme, The Last Breath aims to make a strong impression on such a prestigious platform.

With a powerful real life story, an important message about the environment, and a promising cast, The Last Breath could become a significant turning point in Soniya Bansal’s journey as an actor.

Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap is known for openly supporting and praising the work of other actors and filmmakers. Over the years, he has used his social media to talk about films he genuinely likes, whether they are big hits or smaller projects. From movies like Animal and Dhurandhar to Subedaar, he has always shared his honest opinions.

Recently, in an interview while promoting his new film Dacoit, Anurag spoke about why this kind of appreciation is not often returned. The film also stars Adivi Sesh and Mrunal Thakur. During the conversation, he was asked whether people in the film industry hesitate to praise each other.

Anurag replied in a simple and honest way. He said that many people tell him he praises others a lot, but they do not do the same for his films. He explained that he loves cinema, so whenever he enjoys something, he talks about it openly. At the same time, he admitted that he cannot force others to behave the same way.

Mrunal Thakur agreed with him and added that very few people in the industry truly appreciate others without any reason. Anurag then explained that in today’s film industry, most people only speak positively about a film after it becomes successful. In simple words, success brings attention, while genuine effort often goes unnoticed.

Last month, Anurag had praised Anil Kapoor’s film Subedaar in a detailed social media post. He said the film deserved to be seen in theatres and appreciated its strong storytelling and setting. He also spoke about how the film showed a powerful and realistic world.

Earlier, he also praised Ranveer Singh for his dedication to acting. He shared an incident from the film Lootera, where Ranveer went to extreme lengths to make a scene feel real. According to Anurag, the actor hurt himself during a scene to bring authenticity to his performance. Even though the film did not perform very well at the box office, Anurag said it showed Ranveer’s strong commitment to his craft.

Still, Anurag’s honest comments about the industry have once again grabbed attention and started an important conversation.
