Aamir Khan is Back: Exploring Dreams and Reality in Sitaare Zameen Par
After a brief hiatus following Laal Singh Chaddha, Aamir Khan is making his much-anticipated return with Sitaare Zameen Par. This film is already generating excitement, reminiscent of the emotional and socially relevant storytelling that Khan is celebrated for, similar to his earlier hit, Taare Zameen Par (2007).
Dive Deeper into Aamir Khan’s Cinematic Legacy
Aamir Khan has always been known for his thoughtful approach to filmmaking, blending entertainment with impactful narratives. His filmography boasts a diverse array of socially conscious films that have achieved both box office success and critical recognition. Classics like Lagaan, Rang De Basanti, PK, and Dangal explore profound societal issues, showcasing the resilience of the human spirit.
Taare Zameen Par stands out as a pivotal film, shedding light on the challenges faced by children with learning disabilities. It transformed public perception of dyslexia and inspired conversations around education. With Sitaare Zameen Par, audiences are eager to see whether Khan will once again delve into a narrative that resonates emotionally and addresses pressing social concerns.

What Can We Anticipate from Sitaare Zameen Par?
While the plot details are still largely under wraps, early indications suggest that the film will focus on children from underprivileged backgrounds overcoming challenges to achieve their aspirations. The title, translating to "Stars on Earth," hints at a narrative filled with hope, determination, and the remarkable potential found in everyday lives.
Given Khan’s track record of tackling social issues, Sitaare Zameen Par may explore themes such as poverty, inequality, and the urgent need for better education in marginalized communities. This film promises to be both uplifting and thought-provoking, aligning with Khan’s legacy of intertwining entertainment with essential messages.
Crafting a Film with Emotional Resonance
Aamir Khan is known for his ability to weave real-world issues into compelling narratives. With Sitaare Zameen Par, he is expected to create a storyline that deeply connects with viewers. Fans hope the film will deliver a strong message about the untapped potential of children facing hardships and how proper guidance and opportunities can help unlock their abilities.
Much like in Taare Zameen Par, where Khan’s character played a pivotal role in nurturing a young boy’s hidden talents, this new project could expose the flaws within the education system and its impact on underprivileged youth. Given Khan’s commitment to social issues, as evidenced in his television series Satyamev Jayate, it wouldn’t be surprising if this film emerges as another catalyst for change.
Aamir Khan's Dedication to Authenticity
Khan's dedication to his roles is legendary. For Dangal, he underwent a significant physical transformation to embody a wrestler, while in Lagaan, he immersed himself in the historical context of the film. For Sitaare Zameen Par, it is anticipated that Aamir will closely collaborate with young actors to bring authenticity and depth to their performances, ensuring the film resonates on an emotional level.
Khan has a history of casting relatable and genuine actors, so Sitaare Zameen Par will likely feature fresh faces portraying children from disadvantaged backgrounds, further enhancing the film's realism and connection to its audience.
Aamir recently shared that test screenings for Sitaare Zameen Par have commenced, with a release expected in six months. He has also announced plans to limit his acting roles to one per year, as he shifts his focus towards film production. The inclusion of Genelia D'Souza in the cast has further heightened anticipation around the project.
Tumblr media
The Anticipated Impact of Sitaare Zameen Par on Bollywood
Taare Zameen Par was not only a box office triumph; it also transformed Bollywood by encouraging filmmakers to create narratives that tackle significant social themes. If Sitaare Zameen Par follows a similar trajectory, it could once again inspire the industry to produce more thought-provoking content that resonates with audiences on a deeper level.
In recent years, viewers have increasingly favored films that go beyond mere spectacle, seeking stories that offer emotional depth and meaningful content. Sitaare Zameen Par has the potential to be one such film, standing out in an industry often dominated by action-heavy blockbusters.
As fans await further updates on Sitaare Zameen Par, one thing is certain: Aamir Khan’s return to the silver screen is highly anticipated. This upcoming film promises to be another landmark project that successfully merges entertainment with a vital social message.
Stay tuned for more updates on this eagerly awaited release!

Lord of the Rings but I've never watched it
*slides into the post with a creepy smile* hello maggots it's me back again doing what Satan put me on this green earth to do, summarise things I have no authority to summarise.
I kind of read the Hobbit when I was like 9 or 10? And I may have seen a scene or two from the movie(s)? But that's it. So of course let's hear my hot take on the series.
The elves are hot. Like really hot. They are fucking pretty. Everyone is such a slut for them.
Now I hear some of you lil shits saying no asmi actually i'm a hobbit person no actually i prefer the dwarves and one motherfucker who says actually i'm a gollum kinnie and I'M PREEMPTING THAT BY CORRECTING POINT ONE. MOST PEOPLE ARE SUCH A SLUT FOR THE ELVES. DON'T MAKE MY POST WEIRD.
Oh yeah Gollum was a hobbit but now he's married to a ring and he calls it my precious.
I think he's also a cannibal. Not to indulge in profiling, but he looks the type.
There are like horsepeople of the apocalypse except they're just horsepeople of Smaug and they're like scary. I think their music theme/call is very cool. I do not remember.
Who is Smaug? Smaug is Bendover Cumsnatcher.
On reflection, the horsepeople might be of Sauron, not Smaug.
Who is Sauron? Idk but it's his ring and he has an eye.
Martin Freeman is the hobbit named Bilbo and he had to shave his legs for the fake legs so he has shaved legs in one Sherlock episode.
There's an old dude named Gandalf. He wears robes and says mysterious shit. He has a wand/staff and a possibly homoerotic history with the villain. He has white/grey hair and a long beard. He's the main character's mentor sometimes.
No, what do you mean R**ling's Dumblewhore is a ripoff of that? I see no similarities at all.
He's grey and then he dies and gets whitewashed by the narrative.
Frodo is played by that one actor that reminds me of Aamir Khan.
Frodo is like Freeman's nephew or something. He has a bestie named Sam. They take the ring somewhere to destroy it.
It could be Mount Doom. It could be not. It is in New Zealand. Idk.
The pretty elves live in Rivendell. I've studied to Rivendell ambience before.
The hobbits like comfort and they eat second breakfast and elevensies. I stan.
Thorin is dwarf. He's the king of something.
I had a Hobbit activity book when I was a kid. It was very cool. The riddles were fun.
Galadriel is an elf and they just made some kind of backstory series with her and ruined her character which seems on brand for modern cinema.
There's some kind of book called the Silmirallion or Similarlion or Smillylirryon IDK IT HAS A SI, L, M, A, R AND ON.
Uhhhhh that's all I've got. I am open to being educated, even though I clearly know everything about this.

"I'm Batman," Christopher Nolan
Christopher Nolan is regarded as the one of the best filmmakers in the world today. His recent multi-million hits such as Interstellar and Oppenheimer are believed to go down in history as cult classics and study material for the new filmmakers. One of his movies, Memento, is beloved by so many Indians that it got adapted two times in the country—one in Tamil and one in Hindi. The Hindi adaptation of Memento, named Ghajini, saw the celebrated actor Aamir Khan working in the lead role.
Christopher Nolan is an IP in himself. His movies don’t need catchy songs and nude girls—just the name of Christopher Nolan in the credits is enough.
And obviously, like many others, his fame was not linear. It was exponential. And what made his rise so exponential was his adaptation of the Batman character from the DC comics in Batman Begins.
But, what’s so cool about this movie that it’s still regarded as one of the best Batman movie by many? Like many questions, Christopher Nolan makes the answer to this question crystal-clear.
***
Plot
DC sure has some really cool storylines up its sleeves. And, Christopher Nolan tapped into that very same potential that the DC’s film department is trying to tap into for years.
Batman Begins starts with Bruce Wayne being in jail, where he is fighting some bullies. And, since he’s on the winning side, it’s Bruce who is punished for his punches, not the unnamed bullies.
Then he meets this one guy who promises to change his life. He knows why Bruce is inside, and he knows how to get him out of what he’s made of his life. And so begins his training.
And so, by overcoming his past, his fears, and his problems, he becomes a hero.
There’s a lot—a DAMN lot—in the movie to praise.
Firstly, I’d just talk about the overall feel of the storyline. The cinematography and the screenwriting perfectly portray the vibes of the Batman.
It’s dark. And it’s mature.
Like other superhero films, it’s not a kids’ movie. And even though it’s a little hard to believe, the movie throws it in your face just perfectly—it’s no jokes. It’s no games. All of this is serious.
Batman is a character who doesn’t joke, after all. Batman means business. And his aura is perfectly portrayed in the film. The story of Bruce Wayne as he becomes the Batman, both literally and metaphorically, is the story of a man rising up from level zero.
Like others such as the Iron Man and Spider-Man, Batman is not going to crack some laughs on screen before giving a tight punch in the face. And, it’s that very essence that distinguishes Batman from the others.
The screenwriting was really mature. There was no fat, and every single action and dialogue advanced the story further.
The story didn’t just tell you stuff in your face—it shows you. No scene felt like it was just added to tell you something, but as things move forward, the characters’ actions reveal their personalities on their own. And that kind of show, not tell story structure is really rare—but equally important—in films.
***
Action
Action is one of the main ingredients for a superhero film. I mean, you don’t call that guy a superhero who doesn’t even fight, right?
But sadly, there are plenty of movies and shows that fail to tell good stories just because the way they’re filled with unnecessary action.
The thing is—a good superhero film needs reasonable action. A superhero doesn’t fly around picking up fights. I mean, they do, but not always. Action scenes need to advance the storyline and make sure one of the sides—or the viewer—learns something about the other, and not be present just because the audience likes it.
The fight scene needs to have some stakes and consequences. Without them, it feels unnecessary, and the story is better off without those scenes.
Luckily, Batman Begins is for people just like you and me who hate such unneeded action, but absolutely love it when it’s there for a reason.
And, these scenes are really eye-pleasing. I love the way the trains wreck and cars fly and shit like that happens, you know. Christopher Nolan is a master when it comes to directing such action scenes, and he left no stones unturned when it came to such scenes.
***
Characters
A story is made by its characters. It’s the characters that move the story forward, after all.
And, the side characters are not really that much interesting. Except the antagonists and the protagonist, there was not really any other interesting character with an interesting set of arc and backstory.
But, it doesn’t mean the characters were bad. They were exceptionally good. Each character had a distinct personality than the other, and their motives were clear. There was real work done on crafting these characters and their traits.
But, in terms of characters, the story really shines on the character of Bruce Wayne. Bruce, before becoming the Batman, was filled with hatred, anger, and vengeance. He hated his past, he feared his past, and he wanted to overcome it. He wanted it to never happen. He thought all of it was his fault. He wanted to do something. He wanted to change it.
He wanted to die. To end it all.
But, he was successfully able to rise on top of it and finally leave it behind. He started to love the city that killed his own parents, and what more character development do you need?
The story makes you sympathize for the character—drown in his depression, and smile on his success.
This gradual development in attitude… felt so smooth.
Another thing I want to absolutely praise about Bruce Wayne is how he changes his whole persona when he’s wearing his mask.
And that’s something that differentiates this film from the other films. The mask changes Bruce. Bruce is darker, more menacing, and more responsible when he’s under that mask. Under that mask, Bruce becomes Batman.
Batman and Bruce Wayne are two distinct characters that live inside the same body. And the story doesn’t fail to make it believable.
***
The Climax
Another thing I liked about the film was the way it reached its climax, and the way it all concluded in the end. I won’t be giving you spoilers, but I’d have to praise the way his pasts again come in front of his eyes when the story nears its climax.
I mean, just a few movies are able to actually connect the start and the end of the story so well.
It was an unexpected turn of events, but when we hear the explanation, there’s no way denying that it absolutely makes sense. We never thought about it, but when we do, it makes damn sense to do something like this.
The end not only symbolizes the win of good over evil. It signifies the end of the metamorphosis of the Bruce Wayne as he turns more and more into Batman.
Yeah, in the movie, he slowly shreds what made Bruce the Bruce Wayne, the head of the Wayne Empire, and starts to become the Batman. And there could have been no better end to the movie. Really.
***
Conclusion
One thing I hate about the movie is how it felt a little… rushed in the beginning. I wanted scenes to last a little longer, the dialogues to be a little lesser to-the-point. I wanted to see some more of some scenes, because I feel that those little scenes and dialogues would have made some good drama in the story.
But, I need to accept the fact that it was absolutely necessary, because they were not just individual scenes—that this story was never about those individual scenes.
Until next time.

B-2 : Why Indians Need to Watch Frank Capra’s Movies?
Tumblr media
If you're a fan of Old Hollywood, you can realize the significance of Frank Capra (1897-1991) in the American Film Industry. An Italian by origin, he spent 89 years in the United States. His life story was that of a "rags to riches" one - an ideal example of achieving the American Dream. He also served in the United States Army during the Second World War - and made several war documentaries. One can learn about it in the Netflix series Five Came Back - with Guillermo del Toro narrating his story. Capra has influenced many directors of the post-World War II era (from Indian directors like Satyajit Ray & Raj Kapoor to foreign directors like Akira Kurosawa, Steven Spielberg, & Francois Truffaut). But what is it that makes Capra's work evergreen?
Tumblr media
Before I start, I wish to talk about my rendezvous with Capra. I first heard about him when he attended the 1972 Oscars to co-present the Best Director Award with Natalie Wood (to William Friedkin for The French Connection). I watched six of Capra's movies between December 2021 and July 2022. They are:
It Happened One Night (1934)
Mr. Deeds Goes to Town (1936)
You Can't Take It with You (1938)
Mr. Smith s Goes to Washington (1939)
Meet John Doe (1941)
It’s A Wonderful Life (1946)
Tumblr media
Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert in It Happened One Night (1934)
Tumblr media
Raj Kapoor and Nargis in Chori Chori (1956)
I loved every single picture. While watching It Happened One Night, I found it similar to the 1956 Raj Kapoor-Nargis starrer Chori Chori (not to mention their final collaboration). The screwball comedy got remade in several Indian languages - even the 1991 movie Dil Hai Ki Manta Nahin (with Aamir Khan and Pooja Bhatt). The key themes the movie exhibits are the class and socio-economic differences between the two lead characters - along with love, freedom, poverty, unemployment, etcetera.
It would also be interesting to know that It Happened One Night was the first of the three movies to win the "Big Five" awards at the Oscars: Best Film, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Screenplay. The other two movies are One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest (1975) and Silence of The Lambs (1991).
Tumblr media
Gary Cooper and Jean Arthur in Mr. Deeds Goes to Town (1936)
Tumblr media
Claude Rains and James Stewart in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939)
Mr. Deeds and Mr. Smith grabbed my attention because of the themes discussed in the two (like corruption, misuse of power, beliefs in democracy, patriotism, etcetera). The most significant element is the depiction of the ideal 'American Hero' - which one can see in Gary Cooper and James Stewart, respectively. However, the hero is something that every nation wishes to have - including ours. Mr. Deeds Goes to Town got remade in Bengali (Raja-Saja of 1960 with Uttam Kumar) and Tamil (Nallathambi of 1949 with S. Krishnan). Whereas Mr. Smith Goes to Washington did not have an Indian adaptation.
However, Mr. Smith reminded me of how the English tried to suppress such movements during the freedom struggle. Scenes like 'young boys printing newspapers and citizens launching movements to prove a man's innocence & bureaucrats and politicians trying to stop it' remind us of such events. One must remember that it got released less than three years before Gandhiji launched the Quit India movement of 1942. Even after independence, now and then, we come across news headlines featuring similar happenings.
Tumblr media
Gary Cooper and Barbara Stanwyck in Meet John Doe (1941)
Tumblr media
Amitabh Bachchan and Shabana Azmi in Main Azaad Hoon (1989)
Meet John Doe is about a "grassroots" political campaign created unwittingly by a newspaper columnist with the involvement of a hired homeless man and pursued by the paper's wealthy owner. The renowned Indian adaptation of the film is the Amitabh Bachchan-Shabana Azmi starrer Main Azaad Hoon (1989). It's one of the rarest movies where Bachchan has not fought the corrupt violently.
Although John Doe survives in the end, Azaad kills himself to stay true to the words of the reporter's fictional character. Azaad could have avoided it - but he did not do it so that the people's anger and urge to fight the corrupt system never cool down. Azaad also leaves a message for his supporters and appeals that Azaad should evolve in them. Capra claimed that he never found a satisfying ending for Meet John Doe. However, Main Azaad Hoon provides a finale that suits the main character's commonality and mythic stature.
Tumblr media
(5) Lionel Barrymore, James Stewart, Jean Arthur, and Edward Arnold in You Can’t Take It with You    
And finally, You Can't Take It with You (for which he won his third Directing and second Best Picture Oscar) has a similar theme to It Happened One Night. It's a love story of a successful banker's son and his stenographer. In several Bollywood movies, we see romances between a rich boy and a poor girl (and vice versa) - but they are not like the romances between Capra's characters.  
Tumblr media
(6) Donna Reed, Stewart, and Karolyn Grimes in It’s A Wonderful Life
This article would be incomplete without talking about It's a Wonderful Life (his first movie after leaving the Army) - which gives an important lesson about the significance and beauty of human life. It teaches us that our work can impact the people we come across - and those with friends are never lonely.
But that's not all!
Tumblr media
We live in his world. It is the "Capra Universe" - where demons of society have surrounded us - and all we need is a "hero" to fight against them. Indeed, there are various Indian movies with similar themes (and distinct from Capra's plots). However, one can the difference only after watching them. Capra has taught us that you can be a rebel or an "angry young man" - without having a gun or a weapon to fight the system and beating up the bad guys. All you must do is to believe in yourself and the moral principles of society. He gave complex social and economic problems a human face - showing unemployment and vast concentrations of economic power.
Elaborating on the themes expressed in Capra's most famous works, two of the most reoccurring subjects are selflessness and a familial sense of community. That's why there is always strong support for the lead characters.
The only difference between Capra's movies and the Indian versions is the inclusion of songs - a standard Indian Cinema formula.
With themes depicted in them and the problems we see around us, Indians must watch some of Capra's movies. There have been directors who have remade them in the Indian context (and there will be in the future, no doubt). However, they won't have the exact authenticity as those of Capra's movies.

#KartikAaryan Grooves To ‘Character Dheela Hai 2.0’ In Shehzada As A Tribute To His Favorite #SalmanKhan Kartik Aaryan, who has grown up watching films starring Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, and Aamir Khan, among others, is a complete Bollywood junkie. The actor is currently achieving the success he always wanted in the same field as the three major Khans. In the viral bhopal wedding videos he was spotted dancing with Aamir Khan, and he just let the fanboy in him for Shah Rukh Khan out by delaying Shehzada out of respect for ‘Pathaan’. According to Bollywooe Hungama, Kartik Aaryan has chosen to honour the machoman of Bollywood, Salman Khan. “Similar to Salman Khan’s 2011 film ���Ready’, Shehzada, in the opinion of Kartik Aaryan and his director Rohit Dhawan, is a complete family film. They planned to shock all the fans with a new song after delaying the movie by a week. ‘Character Dheela Hai’ from Salman Khan’s ‘Ready’ for Shehzada would be recreated following a week of idea-generating.” A reliable source informed Bollywood Hungama. https://www.instagram.com/p/CoKML56Jr78/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

"The Evolution of Desi Cinema: From Classic Bollywood to the Rise of Indie Filmmaking"
Tumblr media
Introduction:
Desi cinema has undergone a remarkable transformation over the years. From the golden age of Bollywood with iconic stars like Raj Kapoor and Amitabh Bachchan to the explosion of independent filmmaking and regional cinema, Indian films have evolved in ways that mirror the changing social, cultural, and political landscapes of the country. In this blog post, we’ll take a look at the key phases in the evolution of desicinemas and explore how it has transformed into a more diverse and complex medium for storytelling.
The Golden Age of Bollywood (1950s–1970s):
The golden age of Bollywood marked a period of immense creativity and storytelling innovation. Directors like Guru Dutt, Raj Kapoor, and Bimal Roy created some of the most beloved classics in Indian cinema, with films like Pyaasa (1957), Shree 420 (1955), and Do Bigha Zamin (1953). These films often dealt with social issues like poverty, class disparity, and the challenges of post-independence India.
The 1960s and 1970s saw the rise of the "angry young man" genre, with Amitabh Bachchan becoming the quintessential star of the era. Films like Zanjeer (1973), Deewaar (1975), and Sholay (1975) became monumental successes, blending action, drama, and romance with strong social commentary.
The Masala Era and Commercial Cinema (1980s–1990s):
In the 1980s and 1990s, Bollywood underwent a transformation with the rise of the "masala" film—highly commercial, formulaic movies that combined elements of drama, romance, action, and music. This era also saw the emergence of major stars like Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, and Aamir Khan, who would define Bollywood cinema for decades to come.
The 1990s, in particular, marked a period of significant change, with the liberalization of the Indian economy bringing a new wave of technology and a growing middle class. Movies like Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995) and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998) became massive hits both domestically and internationally, solidifying Bollywood’s place in the global entertainment industry.
The Rise of Independent Cinema (2000s–Present):
While Bollywood remained dominant, the 2000s also saw the rise of independent cinema in India. Filmmakers like Anurag Kashyap, Vishal Bhardwaj, and Zoya Akhtar began creating films that broke away from the conventional norms of mainstream cinema. Movies like Dev.D (2009), The Lunchbox (2013), and Gully Boy (2019) received critical acclaim for their realistic portrayal of complex characters and stories.
The digital revolution has also played a significant role in the evolution of Desi cinema, with the advent of platforms like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and Hotstar making it easier for independent filmmakers to reach global audiences. These platforms have allowed for more experimental and diverse content to thrive, with films exploring a wide range of genres.
The Impact of Regional Cinema:
Parallel to the rise of independent films, regional desicinema has also been experiencing a renaissance in India. The success of films like Kumbalangi Nights (2019), Super Deluxe (2019), and Jersey (2021) has brought regional languages and stories to the forefront of Indian cinema. Regional filmmakers are exploring themes that are often more grounded and relevant to local cultures.
Conclusion:
Desi cinema has come a long way, from the golden age of Bollywood to the diverse and innovative films being made today. It has witnessed the rise of new stars, directors, and industries, and it continues to adapt to global trends while retaining its unique cultural identity. Whether it's the glitz and glamour of mainstream Bollywood, the realism of independent cinema, or the compelling narratives of regional films, Desi cinema is more vibrant than ever, and its evolution is far from over.

The Evolution of Udit Narayan’s Career: A Retrospective
Udit Narayan, the golden voice of Bollywood, has not only entertained millions but also left an indelible mark on Indian music history. From the 1980s to the present day, Udit Narayan’s career is a testament to his adaptability, talent, and unparalleled vocal versatility. As Bollywood’s soundscape evolved, Udit Narayan remained a constant, captivating audiences with his heartfelt renditions and ability to seamlessly blend into different musical styles. His story reflects the journey of Indian playback music itself—rich, diverse, and ever-changing. Join us as we explore the incredible evolution of Udit Narayan’s career and his enduring relevance in the music industry.
1. The Early Days: A Star in the Making
Born in Nepal, Udit Narayan’s early passion for music was nurtured through his love for folk songs and Bollywood melodies. His journey to stardom wasn’t easy—like many aspiring artists, he faced challenges but remained steadfast in his dreams.
His big break came in 1988 with Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak, where the song Papa Kehte Hain became a national sensation.
This success not only earned him a Filmfare Award but also positioned him as a voice of the new generation.
Unlike many of his contemporaries, Udit Narayan’s voice had a youthful exuberance that made it perfect for romantic leads.
2. The 1990s: The Golden Era
The 90s were a defining decade for Udit Narayan. During this time, he became the voice behind many of Bollywood’s biggest hits, contributing to films that went on to become blockbusters.
Collaborating with music directors like Anand-Milind, Jatin-Lalit, and A.R. Rahman, Udit Narayan’s melodious vocals became synonymous with love and emotion.
Hits like Jaadu Teri Nazar (Darr), Pehla Nasha (Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar), and Mehndi Laga Ke Rakhna (Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge) solidified his place as one of the most beloved playback singers of the era.
3. Collaborating with Bollywood Icons
One of Udit Narayan’s greatest strengths was his ability to match his voice to the on-screen personas of Bollywood’s biggest stars.
His voice perfectly complemented Aamir Khan in movies like Rangeela and Lagaan.
Similarly, his collaborations with Shah Rukh Khan in Dil Se, Dil To Pagal Hai, and Mohabbatein brought a unique charm to the silver screen.
His ability to blend his voice with a wide range of actors—from Salman Khan to Hrithik Roshan—cemented his versatility.
