Apart from films, Satish Shah also achieved immense success on television, especially for his iconic role in the popular sitcom Sarabhai vs Sarabhai. His demise has left a deep void in the entertainment industry. Fans, colleagues, and celebrities across the country are paying heartfelt tributes to the late actor, remembering his wit, warmth, and timeless contribution to Indian cinema and TV.
Today, we remember the legendary actor and screenwriter Kader Khan on his birth anniversary. Known for his impeccable comic timing and powerful dialogue delivery, Kader Khan carved a special place in Bollywood over decades. From acting in memorable films to writing dialogues that became iconic, his contribution to Indian cinema is unforgettable. His versatility as an actor, comedian, and writer continues to inspire generations of artists. On this day, fans across the world pay tribute to his legacy, celebrating the laughter, emotions, and stories he gifted to Bollywood.
On the birth anniversary of the actress Late Priya Tendulkar, her husband, actor-filmmaker Karan Razdan, made a heartfelt announcement that has filled fans of the legendary 1985’s Basu Chatterjee directed television show ‘Rajani’ with nostalgia and excitement. The much-talked-about sequel that had been in the works for years is finally ready to make its grand return.
Karan Razdan officially revealed that ‘Rajani 2.0’, the second chapter of the beloved classic, will air on Doordarshan starting November 3, every Monday to Friday from 8:00 pm to 8:30 pm.
In the original series, the late Priya Tendulkar immortalized the character of Rajani — a fearless and outspoken woman who stood firmly against social injustice and corruption. Now, in ‘Rajani 2.0’, the story continues through her daughter Guddu, played by actress Aradhana Sharma, who has grown to be just like her mother — bold, honest, and determined to make a difference. Viewers lovingly call her ‘Rajani 2.0’.
Karan Razdan said, “No one can ever truly play Rajani again, but her soul and her spirit live on through her daughter. I am confident that audiences will shower the same love and respect on Rajani’s daughter that they once gave to Priya ji’s Rajani.”
‘Rajani 2.0’ will also stream on the Waves digital platform from November 10, allowing viewers across the world to watch the show online.
Bollywood’s biggest superstars — Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, and Aamir Khan — recently shared the stage at the Joy Summit in Saudi Arabia, reigniting fans’ hopes of seeing them together in one film.
During a panel discussion, the moderator asked Salman about a dream project that could become a massive hit in Saudi Arabia. Salman replied that any good Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, or Malayalam film could do well, adding that the script would be the true star if the three Khans ever worked together.
Shah Rukh humorously added that bringing all three of them together would be a “beautiful dream,” not a “nightmare,” but also joked that no one could afford them — not just financially, but in terms of coordinating their schedules and creative energies.
Aamir, too, had previously revealed at the 2024 Red Sea Film Festival that the trio had discussed the idea of a joint project. He emphasized that it would be a “sad thing” if the three never worked together and that they were waiting for the perfect script.
While no project has been confirmed yet, the three Khans have made it clear — they are ready, the world just needs the right story.
Social media influencer who rose to fame with her viral dance on the song “Kacha Badam”, has once again found herself in controversy. This time, the uproar comes after the release of her first look as Goddess Sita in the upcoming film “Shri Ramayan Katha.”
In the released images, Anjali is seen dressed in a saffron saree, holding a basket of fruits, portraying Sita during her exile period. Another still shows her posing alongside actor Dev Sharma, who plays Lord Ram. However, many internet users have reacted sharply, questioning the casting decision.
Netizens argue that a personality like Anjali Arora—who has been involved in several online controversies, including a rumored MMS scandal—should not portray a revered mythological figure. Comments flooded social media, accusing the filmmakers of disrespecting Hindu sentiments and “commercializing” religious icons for publicity.
While the makers of Shri Ramayan Katha have yet to respond, the controversy has already sparked a heated debate on the portrayal of mythological characters in modern cinema.
