Besharam Rang Row: Former CBFC Chairman Pahlaj Nihalani extends support for the Shah Rukh Khan starrer; says, “Pathaan is a victim of controversy”

Ever since the Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone starrer Pathaan’s first song, ‘Besharam Rang’ was released, it has sparked a fierce protest. The controversy no longer needs any introduction. As per the recent development, on Thursday, the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) directed the makers to implement 'changes' in the film, including its songs. Amid all the discussion, now, former CBFC Chairman Pahlaj Nihalani has reacted on the matter and stated that Pathaan is “a victim of controversy.”

During his conversation with ETime, Pahlaj Nihalani asserted, “There’s no guideline that states that a colour can be cut. You can suggest changes if there’s vulgarity or obscenity. But if they ask for cuts because of colour, it would be a wrong proceeding. There could be pressure from the ministry... Pathaan is a victim of controversy. The CBFC must have got pressurised by the ministry to delete this portion of saffron colour. Otherwise, they had cleared the costume and the shot in the trailer.”

He further elaborated, “It is the committee’s right to decide what cuts and modifications are needed. They will have to see the revised version. Prasoon Joshi might have given a statement but he has no right to watch Pathaan with the examining committee. He must have got pressure from the ministry to see the film carefully because of the saffron colour. If they suggest a cut because of colour then it would be a wrong proceeding.”

Pahlaj’s statement on the matter comes a day after PTI quoted the Chairperson of CBFC, Prasoon Joshi saying, “I must reiterate that our culture and faith is glorious, intricate and nuanced. And we have to be careful that it does not get defined by trivia which takes the focus away from the real and the true. And like I have said earlier as well, that the trust between creators and audience is most important to protect and the creators should keep working towards it.”

Arijit Singh’s West Bengal concert cancelled for THIS reason and NOT for singing ‘Gerua’

Famous singer Arijit Singh was supposed to host a show at Eco Park in Kolkata on the occasion of New Year. However, it has been cancelled. While the actual reason behind the cancellation is yet to be revealed, Bhartiya Janta Party has alleged that it's a political decision as a few days back he sang 'Gerua' at Kolkata International Film Festival, which was originally picturised on Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol.

Amid the row, Kolkata mayor Firhad Hakim has broken his silence and shed some light on the matter to clarify the actual reason behind the cancellation. As per a report by Free Press Journal, Hakim has clarified that permission was not granted for it to avoid a clash with a scheduled event to mark India's G-20 Presidency. According to the report, he said, “The event marking India's G-20 Presidency will take place at the Convention hall, which is just opposite the Eco Park. Several foreign dignitaries are likely to attend that event.”

Elaborating the issue further, the mayor further added, “Huge crowds would have gathered for Arijit Singh's show and it would have been difficult to handle such volumes of spectators. The police rightly felt that conducting such a big event just opposite the Convention Hall could result in a law-and-order problem.”

The mayor also mentioned that a Salman Khan show has also been cancelled for the same reason. The report quoted him saying, “Owing to concerns about law-and-order problems, the events of Salman Khan and Arijit Singh had to be cancelled. Also, we didn't receive any application for the programme at Eco Park.”

For the unversed, it all started when Dr Indranil Khan, State President of Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha, West Bengal, questioned why Arijit's show was cancelled. In a tweet, he had written, “Why has Arijit Singh's show at Eco Park been cancelled by WB Govt body HIDCO, The result of Arijit humming 'Rang de tu mohe Gerua' in front of Her Excellency at KIFF? Intolerance scales new heights.”

A section of internet users speculated if Arijit singing 'Gerua' in front of Shah Rukh Khan, who was also present at KIFF 2022, was only a tribute to the star or a hidden jibe, amid the ongoing 'Besharam Rang' controversy.

Giving a detailed account of the alleged harassment, Siddharth stated that security officials flagged his 70-year-old mother's purse and also shouted at his sister “for carrying medical injections”.

“The CISF individual who sat behind glass kept scrutinising our IDs repeatedly including the children's passports. He then looked at my face and Adhaar card and shouted "yeh tum ho?" When I told him it was me and asked him why he asked me that question when my ID looks exactly like I do, he said he had doubts. Then the next individual shouted at us asking 'Hindi samajhte hain na?' And before we answered, rudely went on to throw out any ipad or phones that he found. After my bag cleared, he then took out my earphones and threw them on the tray,” read an excerpt of his post.

EXCLUSIVE: Huma Qureshi says filming Badlapur rape scene was traumatic; she felt ‘rage’: ‘I went back home and my hands were shaking’

Bollywood Hungama hosted its roundtable with actresses who made a mark in 2022 in films. Five actresses including Bhumi Pednekar, Tamannaah Bhatia, Rakul Preet Singh, Alaya F, and Huma Qureshi were a part of the conversation that went from their performances this year to pay parity and intimacy. The actresses spoke about several aspects of their careers including the importance of having intimacy coordinators on sets.

The film featured her playing the role of a sex worker. As the conversation revolved around intimacy coaches playing a major role in recent years in the movies, she recalled shooting the Badlapur scene. “I play a sex worker. That’s why I did the film because, for me, it was such a beautiful thing to explore how can we make people feel bad for a sex worker who we judge so freely and who can also be raped and that she is also a woman at the end of the day. I love that thing in that character but while doing the scene, I was a wreck,” she explained.

She said that she felt the safest with Sriram Raghavan and Varun Dhawan. “They were all amazing. But, it’s a lot. I remember going back to my room and I was fully clothed the whole time and it was all simulated but I went back home and my hands were shaking. You are not feeling it for other person but you are there. I felt rage because you want to hit the person back and you can’t. I just felt rage. I had to really calm myself down," she said.

The film starred Varun Dhawan, Yami Gautam, and Radhika Apte. It was helmed by Sriram Raghavan.

Meanwhile, Huma Qureshi was most recently seen in Monica O My Darling and Double XL.

RARKPK will be Johar’s return as a director seven years after his last directorial venture Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, which released during the 2016 Diwali period on October 30.

Confirmed! Nakuul Mehta quits Bade Achhe Lagte Hain 2; says, “there’s nothing new I can bring to it”

Backed by Ektaa Kapoor, the popular show Bade Achhe Lagte Hain returned to TV in August 2021 with Nakuul Mehta and Disha Parmar in the lead. Their pair and onscreen chemistry in the show garnered love from the audience. However, Nakuul has now decided to part ways with the serial.

Yes! You read it right. While talking to Hindustan Times, Nakuul confirmed that he is quitting the show while sharing the reason for the same. “The show got a lot of love though many people had doubts when we started because we took on an iconic show (and remade it). But for it to have the journey and reach out to people the way it has, I think has been truly special. I feel, creatively, full having been a part of it for so long. The story is going to places and I feel going ahead there’s nothing new I can bring to it. I will miss playing Ram,” asserted the actor.

He further added, “I feel I have paid my dues to the makers and the audiences in the last 18 months. Moreover, you must know when to go and now is the time to go. It is tempting to stay on and continue with a show and receive the love but what more is my question. I look at challenging myself. I have had patience and resilience to say no to a lot of things and preserve myself for bigger things.”

Mehta also commented on his comeback on the screen and said, “Once an audience buys into you for playing a Shivay or Ram, I feel it’s an injustice to take up another character in two months and say, ‘Now accept me as this (character)’. Now I work for credibility and respect. Today, you could be a star on television or film, but all of us are in the business of wanting to borrow the viewers’ time. And I don’t take that for granted. For me, I need to go back to live life again and return to the sets as on set you only summarise life.”

He elaborated, “That helps me bring new things to my audience so that I can sort of give them something new and the credibility of wanting to sample my next project continues. That’s kind of hard to earn in this industry is what I’ve learnt along the way.”

The TV industry is mourning the untimely death of actress Tunisha Sharma. She played the lead role of Shehzaadi Mariam on the TV drama, Ali Baba Dastaan-E-Kabul. She allegedly died by suicide on December 24 on the sets of the fantasy-themed show at Vasai in Maharashtra's Palghar district. The actress was only 20. As her last rites were conducted on Tuesday, December 27, her Internet Wala Love co-star Shivin Narang was in attendance. The actor was helping out Sharma's family, especially Tunisha's mother who was devastated after her daughter's death. As it turns out, Narang revealed that he was supposed to shoot a music video with Tunisha on the day she died.

Speaking to ETimes, Shivin Narang revealed, "Tunisha and I were supposed to shoot for a music video on December 23 and 24 in Mumbai." The actor was looking forward to reuniting with his former co-star. "Imagine, we were supposed to shoot on the same day when this tragedy happened. However, a week prior I learnt that she had some health issues and the shoot had to be postponed. I wish we had shot that day... I probably would have understood her state of mind and could have helped her," Narang said.

"Despite being just 16, she was so good at her work and extremely professional. She would spread cheer on the set and we would do a lot of masti," the actor spoke about when they worked on Internet Wala Love.

Shivin Narang added that he shares a beautiful bond with her mother, too. They stayed in touch after the show wrapped and he was even invited to dinner at their Chandigarh residence. He met her last at an event. "She was so happy... we danced and shot several videos and pictures. I still can’t believe she is not with us anymore,” Narang recalled his working experience with her.

Tunisha Sharma's mother has filed a complaint against Ali Baba Dastaan-E-Kabul co-actor Sheezan Khan alleging abetment to suicide. The actor has been sent to 4-day judicial custody following his arrest on Sunday. While his family has released a statement that they are cooperating with the investigation, his two sisters were in attendance at Tunisha's funeral. It is being reported that the two actors were in a relationship and that they had broken up 15 days ago. Tunisha was allegedly under stress and is speculated that this drove her to the edge.

Adding another game-changing twist to the story, Colors' reality show Bigg Boss 16 has decided to establish democracy of sorts this time by inviting fans of the show to vote for the captain of their choice for the first time ever in the history of the game show. The master of the house picks housemates Shiv Thakare, MC Stan, and Abdu Rozik as the candidates who are contesting an election against each other for captaincy.

It will be interesting to see who is the first captain to be chosen by the public?

Coming to the highlights of the upcoming episode, audiences will get to witness a fight between Vikkas Manaktala and Archana Gautam. Archana, who is possessive about the kitchen area, didn't want Vikkas to brew his tea on the stove while she was preparing a dish. Until now, many contestants have bowed down to Archana's idiosyncrasies and quirks, but Vikkas refused to relent.  Their fight turned into a heated tug of war and we hear that it could escalate into an incident of violence. A vessel of boiling water spills all over the kitchen and lands in a pot of hot oil; right then, Archana brandishes a pan in front of Vikkas, who knocks it off cautioning the housemates as the brawl gets intensified. At this point, Soundarya intervenes and reminds Vikkas that he can't get violent while he reasons that Archana's trying her best to instigate him. Find out how this fight ends in tonight's episode.

This is not all. Yesterday's fight over who goes to the BB mandi for the third round between Vikkas and Sumbul Touqeer continues in tonight's episode too. Vikkas will be seen alleging that Sumbul is a hypocrite and a liar, who doesn't say things that she means. Questions are raised about each other's characters and integrity. In retaliation, Sumbul will make him feel bad by reminding him that he's looking funny while arguing with a teenager. It will be interesting to watch what started it all.

There will also be a few light moments, like where Shiv Thakare and Shalin Bhanot will flirt with Maahim, the adorable four-legged member of the house. Tina Datta will also be seen lamenting in front of Maahim while also asking her questions that have been haunting her in the house. The only person who's having a hard time with Maahim around is Abdu Rozik, who's being chased by her.

Bigg Boss 16 airs from Monday to Friday at 10 pm and on Saturdays and Sundays at 9 pm on Colors. It is also available for streaming on Voot.

Vipul Shah addresses allegations of ‘inaccurate facts’ against his film The Kerala Story

Almost a month ago, the teaser of the Vipul Shah and Sudipto Sen collaboration, The Kerala Story hit the tube. But it seems that the film has run into trouble. The teaser showcased Adah Sharma, who is expected to be the leading lady of the film, talking about how women are brainwashed to join the ISIS organization. After its release, it faced allegations of how facts were blown out of the promotion and some of them even called it ‘inaccurate’. Furthermore, a few politicians also called out the filmmaker and demanded the ban of The Kerala Story.

Even though he did not clarify the matter, Vipul Shah addressed the issue during an interview with Mid-Day wherein he asserted that they have evidence to support their claims. In these reports, Vipul Shah talked about the allegations, saying, "We will address [the accusations] in due time. Nothing we say will be without the evidence. When we present our facts and figures, people will get the answers. Whether they choose to accept them or not is their choice. Director Sudipto Sen has researched extensively for four years before starting the film."

He added, “We are making a film on a big tragedy. If I feel that I want to tell this story as a filmmaker, then, discussion on whether I am pro-establishment or not will only reflect an individual’s point of view. As a filmmaker, I only think of the story that touches my heart, and moves me enough to want to narrate it.”

For the unversed, the teaser of The Kerala Story showcases Adah Sharma talking about two important parts of her life. While she starts introducing herself as a nurse who aims to protect people, she further goes on to add how she is an ISIS agent in Afghanistan jail. She also goes on to add that about 32,000 girls are trapped in this world and also added that this kind of racket has been functioning openly in the state, with many women falling prey to it each time.

Directed by Sudipto Sen, the film will feature Adah Sharma along with an ensemble cast.
