Sanjay Dutt seems to have reinvented himself as a Pan-India star. After KGF: Chapter 2, he is much in demand in the South for negative roles, and being paid much more than he gets nowadays on his home-ground in Bollywood. For Double Ismart in Telugu, the sequel to Puri Jagannadh’s 2010 blockbuster Ismart, Dutt agreed to come on board at a hefty fee. Sources from Hyderabad said that he has been paid a whopping Rs 12 crores for Double Ismart, which is a lot more than his current remuneration in Hindi cinema. A source close to the development stated, “After Liger, poor Puri Jagannadh was abandoned by Vijay Deverakonda. It was then that Puri decided to do a sequel to his hit film Ismart. While Ram Pothineni was roped in again for the protagonist’s role, Puri wanted a powerful villain in the project. He thought of Dutt. But the price Dutt quoted had Puri staggering to other Telugu actors. But he came back to Dutt and gave him the price he wanted.” One of Dutt’s upcoming Bollywood movies

The Bombay High Court, in a recent ruling, has declined to halt the release of the much-anticipated movie Dream Girl 2, starring Ayushmann Khurrana, asserting that films should not be prevented from hitting the screens at the eleventh hour. Scheduled for release this Friday, August 25, the film has been the subject of a legal dispute.

Bagchi had sought an injunction to halt the film's release pending the outcome of his lawsuit. However, the High Court emphasized that the suit and the application for the injunction were filed on August 18, leaving insufficient time for the respondents to respond adequately. The court stated, "It is well settled that at the eleventh hour, films should not be prevented from their rele

Imran Khan, who has stayed away from Bollywood for quite some time now, surprised his social media followers by reminiscing about his past work with a post on Break Ke Baad (2010). While we have rarely seen the actor look back at his Bollywood films, the actor confessed that his recent post on the Deepika Padukone starrer was his attempt to ‘reshape’ his relationship with films, further adding that he paid too much attention to the negativity around his movies, rather than focusing on the love it received.
