I will be ur new srk mutual 🫶 which one of his films should I watch first?
such a beautiful ask 🥺
if you're in the mood for a romance movie
1. Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge: it's as old as me and still running in a theatre after all these years. it's literally that movie. the biggest reason he's called the king of romance and there wasn't even a kissing scene in this. hasn't aged. beautiful soundtrack. and the infamous mustard field
2. My Name is Khan: 14th feb 2010, 3pm show in a single screen theatre and i had the time of my life watching my first srk movie in "talkies". i was so happy i was gonna cry finally in a theatre and wept i did. he was so fucking good in this kajol's comeback directed by karan johar. lots of tears. and some more. 9/11 background but it's a love story still. he should have won the national award and that jury will end up in hell someday :)
3. Veer-Zaara: romeo and juliet's tragedy is nothing compared to veer-zaara's. the songs the music the acting the actors the director the writer everything was just so good. a lot of people don't know this but eye acting was actually invented by shah rukh khan
4. Dil to Pagal Hai: a musical about a musical the soundtrack slayyyyed then it slayyyys now. underrated on current tumblr but i think i am starting to prefer that because DTPH is mine. i never had a crush on shahrukh but if any character of his ever came close it was from this movie. one of his sexiest characters imo. did i mention the songs were way too good.
5. Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham: shahrukh really cries like children do. who knew weeping can have range. great songs great cast. kajol in orange. srk in see-through shirts. it's actually a family drama but it's fun also his mother in the movie has a superpower.
6. Om Shanti Om: no bollywood movie has ever bollywooded the way OSO did. love friendship reincarnation hero heroine villain nepotism revenge action comedy great music (and one more thing but that's a huge spoiler) it really just had everything. one of the finest masala movies ever made. it's tumblr's favourite as it should be. also this movie is how i learnt san francisco rhymes with disco
if you're in the mood for thrillers
7. Baazigar: the directors were having trouble finding the lead actor because nobody wanted to take the risk then srk told the producer that nobody can play this role as good as he can and he became the first actor in the history of filmfare to win the best actor award after playing a negative role. a cult classic.
8. Darr: it's the 90s it's the hero heroine villain era when the audiences think the people who play villains are bad people irl and dislike them. sunny deol an already established "hero" is the hero of the movie and srk is the villain a scary stalker and what happened was that the audiences really loved him instead. (my sister got scared of him enough that she started crying in the theatre and my parents had to leave mid-movie a wuss). something that couldn't have been achieved by just anyone except the future king of bollywood. oh lots of switzerland. also the legendary director of the movie kinda adopted srk and started casting him in every movie of his afterwards.
9. Fan: about an obsessed fan (not me just tbc). underrated af.
about brothers and mothers
10. Karan-Arjun: family evil rich guy poor villagers a mother's wait reincarnation revenge very 90s. used to watch it every time it was on tv. also it was shot in my state 😎
11. Main Hoon Na: a cool srk entry. action comedy friendships a whole college adopting a grown up as their big bro beautiful sarees the best dressed character who then got a make-over 🥲 (the only one flaw of the movie) a villain (which was getting rare in the 2000s) the best ending credits ever and whatnot. it was farah khan's directorial debut and she brought fun back to bollywood with her bestie <3
the only coming-of-age movie he did
12. Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa: i was younger than 4 srk wasn't my favourite "hero" yet but his character from this movie was my first blorbo. my murderous rage awakened for him. the first character i ever related to was also from this movie. gangster uncle 🤜🏾🤛🏾 me. srk was so baby (he was like 28) there was also ra ra rasputin in this. srk loves this movie so do i.
#i got carried away as you can tell hehe#but i stopped myself as you can see or would have been even longer#the numbers aren't rankings i was going by the genres and just numbered them#lmk which you watched and if you liked it 🫶🏾#i hope it's not an overwhelming list 🫣#lmk which you watched and if you liked it#most of them are very long except fan i think bc old bollywood movies used to have longer runtimes#reply#thanks for the srk ask 🫶🏾

ROOP AISA SUHANA MERA CHAAND BHI HAI DEEWANA MERA
☾♔; March 12, 2024 ☾♔; 12:19pm ☾♔; sotd: Chammak Challo (iconic forever Akon) ☾♔; cotd: Artizea Rozan Evron ☾♔; Thistle Grove Academy ☾♔; Audition
𝐓𝐢𝐭𝐥𝐞: adapted lyrics from Bole Chudiyan, the original lyrics are "roop aisa suhana tera, chaand bhi hai deewana tera", basically translates to "You're so pretty, even the moon is crazy about you", and I just changed the you to me.
urg, remembered why I do not like making sets on urstyle. the page fucking AUTORELOADED, got stuck, had to reload my draft and of course, items shifted. luckily I only finished one tiny corner and didn't have to start over. what bakwas yaar. and I forgot to do the zoom trick the first time I published! I can't see it, but shit probably shifted somewhere. 😩😩😩😩😩
https://urstyle.fashion/groups/thistle-grove-academyhttps://urstyle.fashion/groups/thistle-grove-academyhttps://urstyle.fashion/groups/thistle-grove-academy
a not insignificant amount of my inspiration came from the Ambani wedding, because holy fuck. you might be rich, but are you not THAT rich. And fr, it really highlighted a lot of vieux vs nouveau riche differences, cause the richest man in the world is again Jeff Bezos, but he would not be able to get celebrities to pile onto greyhound buses to attend AND perform at his wedding.
𝐂𝐨𝐝𝐞 𝐍𝐚𝐦𝐞: Peony 𝐅𝐮𝐥𝐥 𝐍𝐚𝐦𝐞: Laila Raichand (hindi: लैला रायचंद, arabic: رايشاند ليلى) 𝐍𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐞(𝐬): Lulu, Laddo (not a fan of either, use of the latter is limited to Dadi and Daddy) 𝐀𝐠𝐞: 17 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫: cis-female 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐬: she/her 𝐒𝐞𝐱𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲: heterosexual 𝐁𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐝𝐚𝐲: Feb 19 𝐙𝐨𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐜: Pisces
𝐋𝐢𝐤𝐞𝐬: her family. asoiaf (always with daenerys, the one true EMPRESS). dior. cold coffees. caramel. journaling (she does exchanges with her cousins, it's fun and cute watching bade bhaiyah try). red lipsticks. seaside views. karan johar films. yash chopra films. FROZEN (lovesss Elsa, though relates more to Anna). villainess manwha. sailor moon. chanel. disney.
𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞𝐬: game of thrones. the goddamn patriarchy, like come on. america (just as a whole, she's written it off, just become a new country and try again). western perceptions of south asia and the middle east. culottes. bugs, just no. oversharers, like people who've known you for only 10 minutes and proceed to dump their WHOLE tragic life story on you, buddy, I don't know you, I don't want to know about your traumas.
𝐋𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐜𝐲 𝐨𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐮𝐢𝐭: Recruit.
𝐏𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲: Laila is headstrong, opinionated, and very stubborn. She knows what she likes and doesn't like, and has no qualms about making those feelings known. She does not believe in "giving grace" to people's bullshit, you can have grace if you're a kid, if you're old enough to know better, you should act better. She can seem mean, and that's not unfair, she's VERY biased towards everyone who she considers as part of her circle, if you're outside of that, she can be extremely vicious, especially if you dare to hurt even a hair of one her people. She's not a big believer in forgiveness or second chances. One and done, hun.
Laila is very much the spoiled youngest child, and spoiled only child. She's the only child of her parents, and the youngest of all her cousins, thus getting double doting, and that shows. She's always done whatever she's wanted and gotten away with it very easily. She can be a little (a lot) narcissistic, and vain, but she's not naive nor does she live in a delusional, la la land fantasy where everything is about her and she's the centre of the universe. She does not think that, HOWEVER, she is very aware that due to her very lucky circumstances, a loving, powerful family, she can do whatever the fuck she wants, she doesn't have any pressure to do anything, there's no "you must marry a good/rich man, you must do this job, you must inherit this magic or this business", she's the baby princess, and she knows well how to take full advantage of that.
Laila is a little aloof and not particularly easy to get close to, though she can get along perfectly fine with people, she doesn't really bother to get to know them herself, and considers anyone outside of her circle as simply an extra in her life. She's not interested in being the centre of everyone's attention, except of course when it comes to her family, but that's just youngest child things. She has no problem speaking up in class, but prefers to do her own thing with her friends, and can be a little snobby, especially towards strangers. While she's not inconsiderate, she also won't act to spare someone's feelings. If you're not her friend, you're not her friend, she'll absolutely help a girl out in a sticky situation (always be a girl's girl), but you don't need to have brunch with her afterwards.
𝐒𝐭𝐲𝐥𝐞: Laila's personal style is "whatever I like", but in general her wardrobe tends towards classic, chic, and preppy clothes. When it comes to "ethnic" wear, she generally prefers Pakistani salwars, and relies on big brands like Sabyasachi and Manish Malhotra for more oppulent event wear. She also prefers salwars and lahengas over sarees, they're pretty but a hassle to wear. She can wear it so long as someone puts it on for her. She also HATES that the culotte trend is back and cannot wait for it die again. Laila is also very much a heel girl, from the first moment she ever got a pair. She's tiny, she needs that feeling of power.
𝐁𝐢𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐲: Daughter of Turkish business woman Aleyna Burakgazi and Indian RAW Agent Vikrant Raichand, Laila is a djinn through her mother, though her father's family is no stranger to the supernatural either. While her father is by all means a normal (aside from his abs, they are not normal), her grandmother is an Astradhari, the bearer of an astra, a divine weapon, specifically the Agneyastra, the astra of the God Agni. She is also deeply knowledgeable about Kala Jadoo (black magic), but claims she does not practise it. It's a very unreliable claim 'cause it's well known that Dadi (paternal grandma) will fuck you up. While their grandmother has not yet decided which heir to make her successor and pass her astra on to, she has made sure to educate all of them of the power of Astras, the Gods, and kala jadoo.
Laila lived with her mother and more immediate extended paternal family (so her father's brother, his family, and their mother) in India until she was about 7, at which point she and her mother moved to Dubai, where her mother took over Raichand Industries Middle East interests. Her father often travels for work, and cannot maintain contact for extended periods of time, so his presence wasn't as constant as his family's, but whenever present he is always doting and spends time with her and her mother. She is definitely a daddy's girl, he's not the whole cause, but a significant amount of her being spoiled is absolutely his fault. But she is also very close to her mother and admires her very much.
Laila does not exactly have the best track record of controlling her djinn abilities, especially when she's angered. It wasn't too much of a problem growing up, she's mostly a homebody and surrounded by family, and people who know about the magical world, so losing control could be easily covered up and often didn't even need to be. However, one time, she, her best friends Kiran and Isabella, and some other friends went to a concert and as they were leaving, some grown ass adult kept hitting on Kiran, and they were literally 12 years old at the time, how disgusting. It was a kids concert too, like what is that guy even doing? Trash. In her annoyance, Laila exploded his hands, she wasn't aiming to do that, but she has no regrets either. That was a little bit harder to cover up, since it was in public, but ya know, it's Dubai, they're rich, buh-bai pedo. This was not the only time she lost control, but she assumes it was probably this incident that got her on the academy's radar.
Before getting the email, Laila was all set to continue her high school level education at the private school she was attending. Honestly, at first she thought it was spam, all the magic training she's received so far has been passed down generation to generation within family, so she wasn't even aware of Thistle Grove Academy's existence. She was unsure of whether or not to attend, she's already got her dadi and taiji (paternal aunt-in-law) for deeper magical instruction, her mommy for the basics, and she's a Raichand, she can get anything she needs at any time. Ultimately, she was convinced to attend by her one of her besties, Isabella, who is a legacy at Thistle Grove and also got the email.
𝐒𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐬: Djinn (also romanized as jinn, anglicized as genies, as a being can also be analogous to an angel, demon, or fairy, but none are entirely accurate)
𝐀𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬 & 𝐌𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐜: Laila has a number of abilities as a Djinn, such as shapeshifting, mind control, astral projection and body possession, however, ultimately each distinct ability is governed by the same factor and all of them can be classified under the singular power of "Essokinesis", the ability to control reality, though Laila was taught that her power is to make HER wishes come true. Some guy touches her friend and she wants his bones to explode? Okay, boom. Papa's work trip is taking too long, oops, suddenly he's back in India. She wants Valyrian silver-gold hair, she got Valyrian silver-gold hair, that one can at least be hidden easily, you know how awkward it is when you're in the middle of a gun fight in an undisclosed location, and then suddenly poof into the centre of a massive Diwali celebration?
Because her magic is linked to her thoughts and desires, it's hard for Laila to control her abilities and prevent herself from making the silliest thing reality, to forcibly keep her powers from manifesting, she usually wears a simple gold taweez (amulet) given to her by her aunt-in-law's father, Zafar Khan Qadri, who is a Sufi of an Indian branch of the Qadiri Order (as a VERY quick, oversimplified explainary, a Sufi is basically someone who practices Islamic mysticism, honestly of the ones I've met and have been told about, they're more like nerds about magic in relation to Islam rather than a magical priest, but whatever, also Sufism is divided into a bunch of orders which all eventually trace back to Mohammad cause he the OG of everything).
𝐋𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐮𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐬: Arabic, Hindi, Urdu, Turkish, English, French, Portugese (Brazilian), Italian, Russian
𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐲? Pretty chooses pretty? She honestly doesn't know, the general meaning of Peonies is shame, bashfulness, and anger, and like, anger makes sense, but shame? bashfulness? Laila is opposite of that, she's not cinderella, she's the Prince, what does she have to be ashamed about? The meaning of Peonies in China however fits her more, or rather her family, prosperity and honour certainly vibe with the Raichand's and how they value and market their family name.

Hi! 👋 You have nice taste in movies. I saw a handful of Bollywood films on your blog, could you recommend some of your favorites?
Oh my, hi, thank you??
Of course! Disclaimer : I just started getting into Indian cinema this year and I still have a lot to learn and discover.
My first Bollywood movie was Devdas (2002, dir Sanjay Leela Bhansali) with Shah Rukh Khan (remember that name if you're interested in Indian cinema, he's like THE biggest star of the country). It's a period romantic drama film and I basically cried non stop for two hours. The colours! The songs! Aaaaaaaaaaaaah
Then, like a lot of people last year, RRR (2022, dir S. S. Rajamouli). That's technically Tollywood (still Indian cinema, just different region and language). Epic period action drama film. It's.... so good? Like no joke my life changed after watching that movie. It's got action, it's got love, it's got incredible music (my top Spotify last year was just the songs of this movie), it's got everything.
Tbh you can watch all of Rajamouli's movies, I think you're safe with them. Baahubali Part 1 and 2 are amazing, Magadheera maybe aged a little bit (very 2000s, painfully 2000s) but is still great. I haven't watched Eega yet but really can't wait, the plot is too weird, I have to.
For something more modern, I absolutly loved Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani (2023, dir Karan Johar). Back to Bollywood, it's a romantic comedy family drama. From what I understood, the plot is very basic for an Indian movie, forbidden love, evil grandma, respect of traditions etc etc but as I said, I'm new to all of this, and it was amazing. So, so funny. If you like himbos you'll love the main guy, he's perfect. He says stuff like "Gucci and Prada made love and gave birth to me" or "she's a super woman Wonder Woman Wakanda forever", I love him.
I hope you'll like these! Thank you again for asking I could talk about these movies for days <3

“Tota Roy Chowdhury’s character in Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani is borrowed from Karan Johar’s childhood,” reveals latter
In an interview, Karan Johar discusses the slurs he received in college for having an effeminate body language.
Filmmaker Karan Johar has spoken up about being called names in college for having a lewd body language. The latest film Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani marked Johar's return to directing, and he claimed that the event has remained in his heart ever since.
Johar claimed that he was "very effeminate" as a child and used to dance in his room to Hindi songs in an interview with Film Companion. He claimed that his father, Yash Johar, frequently observed him dancing and clapping and felt it was "great".
When he entered college, things did, however, alter. He insisted, "No one told there was anything wrong at that time. So I grew up thinking (that) this is fine. Much later when you go to college you realise when you carry that through and do those moves, and people look at you and laugh."
Then Karan Johar said, "You're called all kinds of things. There are terms used and it's still in my heart because I grew up with that feeling that I was laughed at for my body language or way of being. Somewhere Tota's character is borrowed from my childhood. When he says ‘Hunar ka koi gender nahi hota (talent has no gender)’, I believe that."
Even though Karan didn't think it was a traumatic event, he did question why other people couldn't accept him for who he was while his own father did.
For the uninitiated, Tota Roy Chowdhury portrays Rani's father, a Kathak dancer who suffers humiliation since his profession is connected to femininity. Rocky's son Ranveer soon joins him and picks up Kathak, responding appropriately to those who made him feel bad. On "Dola Re Dola," Tota and Ranveer give a solid performance.

★ Yash Raj Films delays Tiger vs Pathaan; Shah Rukh Khan-Salman Khan starrer will go on floors only in 2025 and release in 2026!
Nov 30, 2023
Things definitely didn't shape up as well as expected for Aditya Chopra with the Salman Khan led Tiger 3. While the content got mixed feedback from the audience, the industry is also buzzing with chatter around how a conventional Friday release would have benefited the business by pushing the film to Tiger Zinda Hai number. It's Salman Khan's fan following and the franchise value that has taken the film to a lifetime collection of around Rs. 280 crores, getting it a clean hit tag.
And now, Bollywood Hungama has got news that would create a stir in the industry and shock waves on the social media. Highly placed sources have confirmed that Aditya Chopra has delayed Tiger vs Pathaan shoot. "Tiger vs Pathaan was to start in March 2024, but Aditya Chopra has decided to personally take time to rework on the script and serve the audience with better content. Once Siddharth Anand is done with Fighter post production, Adi will sit down with his director to improve the version of what has been written," a trade source told Bollywood Hungama.
The source added that Aditya Chopra wants to put all his focus on the Tiger vs Pathaan script as the idea is to reintroduce Tiger to the audience at its ferocious best. "Tiger is the most senior spy of the YRF Universe and the idea is to present it in a way that takes audiences on a ride. Aditya Chopra knows that the expectations will be off the roof in the audience for the face off of Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan in Tiger vs Pathaan. There is no room for compromise and all the energies are invested to better the film," the trade source added.
Interestingly, Shah Rukh Khan also had a discussion with Aditya Chopra recently, and conveyed his thoughts on the potential to improve the writing of Tiger vs Pathaan. "Shah Rukh considers the YRF Universe to be close to his heart as Pathaan played a role in introducing his action image. He told Adi that he stands by his side and will be ready to shoot the film whenever Adi is ready with the script. Salman is also on the same page, and hence green lit the shoot timelines for Karan Johar's film from February 2024. Shah Rukh Khan in the meantime will be shooting for The King from January."
It's a consensual decision taken by the top 3 industry giants, in an attempt to provide a world class cinematic experience to their audiences. Tiger vs Pathaan will now go on floors in 2025 and is likely to release in the year 2026.

"No one brings the kind of energy to a film set that Ranveer Singh does," Karan Johar
Karan Johar’s production Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahani has crossed the 100 Cr. Mark on the box office. The film is getting a lot of praise for its storyline, Alia Bhatt acting as well as the blast of energy that Ranveer Singh brings to the sets. Karan Johar, in a recent interview, talked about how he got a ‘cultural shock’ seeing the energy that Ranveer has as he had worked with Ranbir Kapoor earlier who is exactly the opposite.
"No one brings the kind of energy to a film set that Ranveer Singh does," Johar said. "And before this, I had worked with Ranbir (Kapoor), who used to come to the set with a very calm, composed energy during Ae Dil Hai Mushkil. It was a cultural shock for me."
Karan continued, "Then I realized that all the hard work he (Ranveer) puts in, all that enthusiasm and passion he brings, is solely and purely to enhance his performance. I haven't seen this kind of energy before, and I won't see it again, but I knew one thing: he was the most indispensable character in Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. There would be no Rocky Randhawa if there wasn't Ranveer Singh."
In the same interview, Alia Bhatt also opened up about family values and how the support of the family plays a key role in creating a person. She talked about the time she took help from Shahrukh Khan for a song in the film RRKPK.
Recalling the incident, she said that she was unable to lip-sing for one of the songs in the film and was guided by Karan to take help from Shahrukh. Alia went on to lengths talking about how Shahrukh taught her the best trick and was so humble about it.

On Thursday, Karan Johar and Dharma Productions' official social media handle unveiled several posters from their new film Chand Mera Dil, which explores Ananya Panday and Lakshya's hitherto unseen relationship. As promised by the filmmaker, the posters depict a touching, entertaining, modern story of romance between two young people - a guy next door and a simple girl next door. Ananya also appears in an ethnic manner, which is distinct from her recent releases, such as Kho Gaye Hum Kahan and CTRL.
Interestingly, Lakshya, who was meant to begin his film career with another Dharma Productions project, has now collaborated with the production house for the second time with this romantic drama. While fans saw his action-packed side in the gory action movie Kill (2023), which won positive reviews at film festivals, the former television star promises to show off his romantic side, if the posters are any indication. Similarly, Ananya will appear in a traditional romantic drama for the first time. While the actor has previously explored themes of romance and comedy, this will be her first experience with a lovely love story.
While most of the film's details are kept under wraps, the tagline is "Pyaar thoda paagal hona padta hai (One should be a little mad in love)". The film, directed by Vivek Soni, is scheduled to be released in 2025.

Pluck Up Your Courage For Vasan Bala’s “Jigra”!
Fear is a Reaction but Courage is a Decision. So pluck up some courage for a newly-released master-blaster Hindi action-thriller, "Jigra"! Produced by Karan Johar, and written and directed by Vasan Bala, Jigra was released in theaters on October 11, 2024. Female-led action-thrillers are rare in Bollywood, and this is one of those. It stars award-winning actress Alia Bhatt opposite Vedang Raina. Jigra (2024) Synopsis: Electrocution, the word may terrify you. It may even petrify some others who may be facing the death penalty and will be executed by this horrifying process. As high-voltage electricity will run down the nerves, horrific death is certain within a few seconds! In a fictional country that resembles Singapore, a young Indian man named Ankur Anand (Vedang Raina) is brutally tortured in a harsh prison cell. The prison is colossal and nightmarish. It’s one of those kinds that is impossible to escape. Jigra: The Unforgettable Tale Of A Sister And Her Brother! https://youtu.be/pLPHQaumq4g?si=cF2-SIA721s4OvCZ Ankur has been imprisoned against false charges of drug trafficking in the country. A crime he never committed. He faces the death penalty where he has three months until his execution by electrocution. On his wrist, there’s a “rakhi”, a sacred thread that a sister ties to her brother’s wrist in India. Hold on to your breaths as his sister Satya (Alia Bhatt) comes wrecking into the country looking for her brother to attempt the unthinkable! Break him free from that murderous prison and bring him back to safety in India. A kind of prison break attempting which one has to fight with death. Will she be successful in her effort? Well, she has a hell lot of bloody fights coming her way! Watch "Jigra" to experience action, horror, and suspense combined as Alia Bhatt transforms from a Barbie doll to Annabelle to save her on-screen brother, Vedang Raina! Introducing Alia Bhatt In Jigra: The Track “Chal Kudiye” Featuring Diljit Dosanjh! https://youtu.be/FewWUHxY79w?si=qmflEZgwPrcKEgOm Jigra (2024) Official Trailer: https://youtu.be/3uE0RuQndZc?si=Wh6mWaIhsf0ZlI3z The Good: People may have varied opinions about Karan Johar but I have to say, the guy creates mass-appealing cinema! With Jigra, he has changed the face of the action hero-centric Hindi cinema. Just look at his masterstroke! He made Jigra within a budget of INR 90 Crores and even before its theatrical opening, the film crossed that benchmark! Such is the hype of this action-thriller. We can now expect women to take over as new action avatars. Ali Bhatt has proved with her vibrant and daredevil role in Jigra that the era of men as action heroes is slowly fading away. Female action-centric mass-appealing cinema is becoming the new trend. We have seen a lot of female action-centric Hollywood movies, but now it’s time to experience some Bollywood ones as well! Alia Bhatt’s character is invincible in this movie. She entirely carries the film on her shoulders. Her action stunts and bloody fights during her quest to save her brother will blow up your mind. Her character portrays everlasting determination. She won’t rest until she rescues him from the dreadful prison. If you have come across one of Jigra’s promotional posters, you will see Alia standing by a massive dragon on her side. That dragon symbolizes “Tiamat” from Mesopotamian mythology, the Goddess who protects the universe. The Track “Tenu Sang Rakhna” From Jigra https://youtu.be/OkpIoEC44kk?si=48k3KumvTAgCe4D_ As the story unfolds, you will get to know about the real villain who is behind trapping Ankur into false charges. There are certain raw action sequences performed by Alia that are unbearably bloody and violent that you will be forced to close your eyes until the scenes end. Havoc and destruction, bloodbath, extreme gun violence, and rumbling bomb blasts; the scenes have it all! Even if the plot seems familiar, a sister on her quest to rescue her brother, the screenplay is so unpredictable and suspenseful that upon watching one instance, you would never in your dreams imagine what’s going to happen in the next. In short, Alia Bhatt has done everything possible a star actress can with her stellar performance. She has made us cry with sisterly emotions, horrified us with her madness and determination, and suffered severe trauma herself in the violent stunt and action sequences. She has created a revolution in Indian cinema by conveying that it’s not always the macho hero who saves the day, but a heroine can also bar all obstacles to save a poor lad in distress! As for Vedang Raina, this young Archies-fame actor is creating waves in Bollywood nowadays. Even if his songs in Jigra are not up to the mark, still, with his acting, he is sure to gain some spotlight. I wonder what’s coming up next for him. Jigra is exceptionally emotional as well. You will connect to the backstory which shows a sister’s concern, care, and love for her brother. When you happen to watch a 2-hour and 35-minute action movie without blinking an eyelid, that’s when you will agree that besides the movie’s plot, the screenplay and editing are superb. Also, the camerawork, sound effects, background music, and special effects are brilliant. They will make you feel the vibe and energy of Hollywood action movies. The Title Track of Jigra Sung By Vedang Raina https://youtu.be/jErAEfA0xXw?si=S45Ug_iJ3aFI7yWj The Bad: You will be disappointed to learn that even if Alia has portrayed her violent side in this mass-appealing action-thriller, her character fails to build up. If you have watched the mega action-thriller “KGF”, in the end, the protagonist Rocky enters the Parliament and shoots a politician in broad daylight. We can expect this from the character Rocky (played by Yash) because the filmmakers of KGF had taken their time to build the daring trait of that character in both KGF: Part 1 and its sequel. Even if writer and director Vasan Bala has made a great attempt to create a terrifying and suspenseful storyline, his approach toward building up Alia’s character in the movie seems weak. You will witness a petite girl coming out of nowhere and causing a mass massacre. This looks unreal. He should have considered introducing some scenes in between that would have built up that character’s image, so that her character would have made the audience believe, “Yes, she can do it. Just like Rocky!” For example, scenes of her failed jailbreak attempts could have been introduced, following that, her success scene. That would have appeared more realistic. Even if female-centric cinema is trending nowadays, lead actresses have a lot to work on their dialogue deliveries to match up to the style, aura, and personalities of our action heroes in Hindi cinema. That’s what distinguishes a female-led action film from a male-led one. In Jigra, the action might be impressive, but the dialogues don’t seem to create an impact. At times, I felt as if Alia in her character was mewing with her shrunken voice. The Nostalgic Track “Phoolon Ka Taron Ka” Remastered By Vedang Raina https://youtu.be/YXJOEpzB-r4?si=u5fvoWlbYztJ7ef1 The Verdict: Nowadays, Bollywood is resorting to making prison-break movies. If you had watched the recently released suspense-thriller “Savi”, you would witness another awesome and cleverly-planned prison break. But Jigra bars it all! This is raw, bloodthirsty, and gruesome; a true no-holds-barred! This petrifying action-thriller tells us that family comes first. You need to care for your loved ones. If they are in trouble, taking drastic steps is justified. The astonishing fact is that Ranbir Kapoor did the toxic action-thriller “Animal”. Now, it’s his wife’s turn to follow his legacy by coming out with her own version of Animal in the form of Jigra. Even if non-toxic, unlike Animal, Jigra still is blood-curdling! What’s more, Alia happens to be one of the producers of this movie along with Karan Johar. Even with its thrilling story, suspenseful and action-laden screenplay, and tremendous mass appeal, Jigra falls short of a masterpiece. The character portrayal appears unreal which makes its second half direly fictional. But still, if you want to witness the innocent Brahmastra girl transitioning into her raw action avatar, then visit your nearest theaters to experience the violence!

Saif Ali Khan Responds to Karan Johar’s Controversial Remarks on Star Fees
Bollywood is no stranger to controversies, especially when it comes to the subject of star fees. Recently, a statement made by filmmaker Karan Johar about the exorbitant fees charged by Bollywood actors has sparked a heated debate in the industry. Many stars have kept silent, but Saif Ali Khan, known for his candidness, has now addressed the issue, offering his perspective on the matter.
Karan Johar's Remarks on Star Fees
In a recent interview, Karan Johar voiced his concern over the growing disparity between what actors charge and the return on investment their films bring to the box office. Johar, one of the most successful filmmakers in the industry, expressed that the high fees charged by certain Bollywood actors could put undue pressure on the production budget, making it difficult to ensure profitability, especially in a post-pandemic world where footfalls in theaters have reduced significantly.
Johar's remarks did not go unnoticed. Many in the industry and on social media began discussing the merits and demerits of high star fees, with some supporting the need for actors to lower their asking price in the current economic climate. Others argued that star power is what draws audiences, and therefore actors deserve to charge as per their value.
Saif Ali Khan’s Thoughtful Response
Amid the brewing controversy, Saif Ali Khan, known for his articulate and balanced views, addressed Johar’s comments during a media interaction. Saif, while acknowledging that Johar raised valid points, also pointed out the complexities involved in star compensation.
Saif stated, "It's not just about the numbers but about what you bring to the table. An actor's fee is not simply a reflection of their acting talent; it’s a combination of their market value, their ability to pull in crowds, and the overall brand they represent."
He emphasized that actors are businesses in themselves, with marketing, endorsements, and their social media presence playing significant roles in how they are perceived by the industry and the audience. "Actors today are multifaceted – it's not just about doing films. We are brands, and how we are compensated takes into account our contributions beyond the screen," he explained.
A Balanced View
While Saif agreed that the industry is facing financial constraints and that actors should consider the economic realities, he also pointed out that it’s unfair to put all the blame on star fees. “The film industry is a collaborative effort. It’s not just the actors but also producers, directors, and other stakeholders who need to rework strategies. Cutting down fees may not be the only solution,” he said.
Saif also brought attention to the fact that actors, especially established ones, often take pay cuts or opt for profit-sharing models in projects they believe in. “Many actors are flexible and understand the challenges producers face. It’s not always black and white. Every project is unique, and compensation should reflect that.”
The Larger Debate
The debate over star fees is likely to continue, but Saif’s thoughtful response adds an important dimension to the conversation. His balanced view suggests that while the industry must evolve with changing times, it’s important not to single out actors as the sole cause of financial strain in filmmaking.
Ultimately, Saif Ali Khan’s take on the matter is a reminder that the business of Bollywood is a complex ecosystem where every player, from actors to producers, plays a crucial role. Whether Karan Johar’s remarks will lead to a larger shift in how fees are structured remains to be seen, but it’s clear that Saif’s response has added depth to the ongoing conversation.
