Akshay inspires me. Ajay (Devgn) inspires me. Not necessarily for movies but the idea being (to) stay focussed and you could achieve anything. I probably wasn’t focussed when I was working. Probably I didn’t pay heed to the scripts I was hearing or I believed I was larger-than-life. But that’s a mistake.”
Suniel added that he still has a lot for which he feels thankful. “Why would I feel the pressure when a 100 million people out there haven’t made it and they want to make it? So, glass half full, half empty. For me, half is good enough. I am very happy in my space; in my mental space.”
Elaborating on this point, he added, “I have a solid family and friends. I don’t know what I have achieved as far as cinema goes. But I know one thing for a fact that there is a lot of goodwill and love and affection that I have and I live of that.”
Suniel recently made his web debut in the MX Player show Dharavi Bank, which also stars Vivek Oberoi.

Via Bollywood Hungama https://ift.tt/vlAYETMYash Raj Films has left no stone unturned for their hugely awaited action extravaganza Pathaan. News is just out that in order to make the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer a spectacle of sorts, the makers have shot not in three of four but eight countries, which include, Spain, UAE, Turkey, Russia and Siberia, Italy, France, India and Afghanistan.
While reasoning out the decision, director Siddharth Anand said in a statement, “Locations always play a huge role in my films and they became even more important for Pathaan as we intended to deliver an action spectacle for audiences that they have never seen before. To achieve that scale and variation in visuals we went to 8 countries to shoot the film and its lavish action sequences!”
Siddharth also shared how they planned the whole film accurately. “We were clear that every scene of Pathaan needs to be breath-taking and we meticulously went about planning to achieve this,” said the filmmaker. “I remember the pre-production of Pathaan took close to two years because we wanted to be absolutely sure that we are going to try and raise the bar of action spectacles in India.”
He also revealed that they explored some novel locations to shoot the film. “We have shot in some of the most remote and most exquisite locations in the world that have helped us create a visual experience that is immersive and outlandish,” said Siddharth. “I simply hope that audiences love our effort to create a cinematic milestone when Pathaan releases in theatres on Jan 25.”
Produced by Aditya Chopra’s Yash Raj Films, Pathaan also stars John Abraham and Deepika Padukone in pivotal roles.

Via Bollywood Hungama https://ift.tt/vlAYETMFor those who think being compared with her legendary mom Sridevi is a problem for Janhvi Kapoor, here is her rather confident verdict on the topic. Says Janhvi, “Why would I want the comparisons to stop? Why would I be offended by being compared with my mom? I am being compared with the best. So they are holding me to the best possible standards. It’s like reaching to the stars. At least I can aim for the sky. I think I am flattered.”
Janhvi doesn’t think the comparisons are uncalled-for. “I can’t blame them for their expectations. I am trying hard to live up to the expectations. I may not have the talent or beauty of my mother. But it’s the hard work that is my USP. I know I will get there.”
Janhvi confesses she is completely engrossed in her career. “Cinema is my life. Acting is the only thing that keeps me going. I will keep on reaching for the stars. I am not apologetic anymore for where I come from.”

Via Bollywood Hungama https://ift.tt/vlAYETMIn exactly 55 days, fans will be all set to welcome Shah Rukh Khan back to the silver screens again. Though he never left, his hiatus has been for five years now. The actor now is gearing up for the upcoming action entertainer Pathaan which is a part of Yash Raj Films’ 50th anniversary. Directed by Siddharth Anand, the actor recently said that no one was approaching him for action films before Pathaan came along.
Shah Rukh Khan on Thursday attended the Red Sea Festival in Saudi Arabia for the special screening of Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge. The actor spoke to Deadline about Pathaan and why he wants to do action movies. “I’ve never done an action film, I’ve done really sweet love stories, I’ve done some social dramas, I’ve done some bad guys, but nobody was taking me for action,” he explained. “I’m 57 years old, and I thought for the next years I have to do action films, I want to do Mission Impossible-ish kind of films. I want to do over-the-top kind of action films.”
Shah Rukh Khan went on to explain that India is evolving massively in terms of technology. “I think we’ve gone ahead leaps and bounds so I want to use all that knowledge,” Khan added.
Back in June 2022, Shah Rukh Khan had revealed why he wanted to do Pathaan. “When we started shooting Pathaan, it was a lot of fun. It is an action film with wonderful co-actors Deepika Padukone, John Abraham and Ashutosh Rana among others,” he explained, “It is the kind of film I wanted to do for 30 years. I always thought of myself as somebody who can do some cool action stuff. So, I think my impression about Pathaan is that what I really wanted to do when I first came to Mumbai, hopefully I have achieved that in Pathaan as an actor.”
He admitted that he wanted to be an action hero in his 20s but is enjoying the process in his 50s too. “I enjoyed it. It is fun having to do action. It is a little late (referring to his age). At the age of 56, I am being macho and solid, trying to make it work. Siddharth and the whole action team has put in a lot of hard work. Hopefully, it will work,” he smiled.
“I remember Siddharth narrating a lot of films to me. Unfortunately, we could not find the right time to collaborate for years. He had this title called Pathaan with him. And he would tell me that, ‘Sir, maine film ready kar li hai.’ One fine day, when we could not work on the two scripts he narrated, he sent me a sweet message, which read, ‘I have this title. I have not been able to get a film with you. Now, please take the title and make a film whenever you want,’” Shah Rukh Khan said revealing that Siddharth Anand came back to him with a new script. “The film has had a long journey. And soon, you all will be able to see it,” he said.
Pathaan is set to release on January 25, 2023, in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu!
