Kiara Advani Not Cast as Madhubala in her Biopic

Recent reports claiming that Kiara Advani would play the legendary Madhubala in a Sanjay Leela Bhansali-produced biopic have been debunked. An industry source confirmed that these claims are completely baseless and speculative. The much-anticipated project is still in early development, with no official casting announcements made.

The biopic is set to be directed by Jasmeet K. Reen, known for her debut film Darlings, which starred Alia Bhatt, Shefali Shah, and Vijay Varma. While fans were excited to hear Kiara’s name attached, she is not involved in the project. Kiara was last seen in War 2 alongside Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR and will next appear in Toxic: A FairyTale for GrownUps.

Madhubala, a celebrated icon of 1950s Indian cinema, starred in classics like Mughal-e-Azam and Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi. Despite her early death at 36 due to a congenital heart defect, she remains a timeless figure in Bollywood history.

Dhurandhar 2 Trailer Launches Tomorrow

The much-anticipated trailer of Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge is set to release tomorrow, March 7, at 11:01 AM. Fans have eagerly awaited the teaser, which promises action-packed sequences and gripping drama. Earlier reports suggested a March 6 release, but technical delays pushed it by a day. Bollywood star Ranveer Singh officially revealed the trailer timing on social media, adding excitement to the countdown.

Unlike the first installment, which released only in Hindi, Dhurandhar 2 will hit cinemas on March 19 in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Malayalam. Directed and written by Aditya Dhar, the film is produced by Aditya Dhar, Jyoti Deshpande, and Lokesh Dhar. The movie continues the espionage saga with Hamza Ali Mazhari playing an undercover agent navigating Pakistan’s underworld.

The trailer release comes at a strategic time as Yash’s Toxic postpones its March 19 release to June 4. This change avoids a box-office clash, allowing Dhurandhar 2 to shine independently in theaters across India. Fans are ready for high-octane action and thrilling drama.
