Selena Gomez gets emotional talking about her mental health in the trailer of Apple TV+ documentary My Mind & Me; says, “I don’t want to be super famous”

Apple Original Films on Monday unveiled the trailer for the highly anticipated documentary feature about singer, songwriter, actress, producer, entrepreneur and activist Selena Gomez, Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me, directed and produced by Alek Keshishian. The announcement was made on World Mental Health Day, in support of global mental health education and awareness, as Selena bravely shares her own journey in this revealing film.

After years in the limelight, Selena Gomez achieved unimaginable stardom. But just as she reached a new peak, an unexpected turn pulled her into darkness. This raw and intimate documentary spans her six-year journey into a new light. “Just be who you are, Selena,” the voice-over of the songstress begins. “No one cares about what you’re doing. It is about who I am, being okay with where I am. I am grateful to be alive.” The trailer gives a glimpse of Gomez receiving her lupus diagnosis and says that she had a mental breakdown. Selena says in the video, “I’m going to stop living like this.”

Selena is in tears in the trailer as she says, “My whole life since I was a kid I’ve been working. I don’t want to be, like, super famous, but I do know that if I’m here I have to use that for good.”

This film marks the second project for Apple with producers Lighthouse Management + Media and Interscope Films following their collaboration on the Emmy Award-nominated documentary Billie Eilish: The World’s a Little Blurry.

Selena Gomez: My Mind & Me, will premiere on November 4, 2022 on Apple TV+.

Amitabh Bachchan turns 80 Exclusive: Veteran actor reveals his “code of conduct”; says he always “succumbs” to the director in THIS throwback video

October 11 this year is no less than a festival for fans of Bollywood star Amitabh Bachchan as it marks his 80th birthday. The actor is widely known for his stellar performance in various films. From romantic to comedy to suspense thrillers, there is hardly any genre which he has not explored. Once in an interview with Bollywood Hungama, Amitabh Bachchan opened up about how he does that effortlessly.

During the promotions of Badla, Big B was asked to explain how he gets into the skin of his characters. In response, he said, “If I’m being paid to work in a film, I presume that I’m expected to do what I’m being paid for, or what I’ve been asked to do. I just do what I’m asked to do as a professional.”

Explaining his take further, Shenshah added, “As a professional, I believe that my code of conduct is to follow what the director says. Once you agree to that you can have discussions, you can have arguments, you can have differences of opinion. But in the end, I will always want to succumb to the director because his vision, his idea, his thought process, is never going to be understood by anyone else.”

Though Shahenshah is one of the biggest names in the Indian film industry, his humbleness and down-to-earth nature always manage to get love from his fans. As he turned a year older today, team Bollywood Hungama wishes him a very happy birthday!

Amitabh Bachchan was once replaced overnight by Sanjay Khan in a film! Here’s how

It  happens only in India, goes a Govinda song. These words never seem truer than when applied to the incidents that happen in Bollywood. But even by the unpredictable standards of the Indian entertainment industry, this one takes the cake and the  bakery.

It happened  in  early 1970s when Amitabh Bachchan, fresh  raw and struggling for a foothold, signed  a potboiler titled Duniya Ka Mela. The film  was directed by Kundan Kumar; a  little-known name today, but a biggish gun in the 1960s and 70s, Kundan Kumar helmed  musical hits like  Ganga Maiya Tohe Piyari Chadhaibo (1962, India’s first Bhojpuri  blockbuster), Aulad (1968, the  Jeetendra-Babita starrer best-known for the comedic song Jodi hamari  jamegi kaise) , Pardesi (1970, a slinky Mumtaz dancing to Chitragupta’s hit tunes) and Anokhi Ada (Jeetendra-Rekha’s first hit together).

In 1973, before  Amitabh Bachchan’s Zanjeer turned him overnight  into India’s biggest  star, Kundan Kumar launched Duniya Ka Mela with Rekha and a struggler named Amitabh Bachchan. Distributors  advised Kundan Kumar against what they saw as a foolhardy move. Until that  point of time Amitabh had featured only in a few films such as like Saat Hindustani, Pyar Ki Kahani, Bombay To Goa ,Parwana and Gehri Chaal. In the last two mentioned films AB Sr. played  villainous roles and was seriously thinking of trying his luck as a villain, a la Shatrughan Sinha.

But Kundan stuck to his guns. He  even shot a romantic duet Yeh chehra yeh zulfen jadoo sa kar rahe hain  composed by the hit-makers Laxmikant-Pyarelal, and filmed on  Rekha and the almost-newcomer Amitabh Bachchan. This is when the  distributors  threatened  to  back out of the project. They advised Kundan   Kumar to get rid of the semi-newcomer and replace him with someone more viewer-friendly.

Bachchan was then sacked overnight, and not even informed properly of his  loss. He was replaced by the then-hot and saleable Sanjay Khan (who  appeared in films as only ‘Sanjay’ in the credit titles back then!) Sanjay (with or without the Khan) had delivered a slew of  successes  in the  late 60s and early 70s.

By the time Duniya Ka Mela was released in 1974 , Sanjay  Khan’s career was on the downslide and Amitabh Bachchan after Zanjeer  took over the entire entertainment  industry.

The same duet song from Duniya  Ka Mela, which turned out as a flop,  was shot with Bachchan and Rekha. However it was once again re-shot with Sanjay and Rekha.

Technically Duniya Ka Mela is  the  first  Amitabh-Rekha starrer, although the one that released first with them  in the lead was Do Anjaane in 1976  (where believe it not, Rekha elopes with Prem Chopra after marrying Amitabh Bachchan).

Speaking of the experience Amitabh Bachchan says he holds absolutely no grudges. “I was grappling with flops. I was grateful that they even considered me for the film. I was  replaced by Mr. Sanjay Khan who was  big star during those times.”
