Even though Pablo Escobar is dead, ‘Narcos’ still lives on. 

The trailer for the third season of Netflix’s ‘inspired by real events’ drug drama just came out and it looks extremely intense.

The first two seasons showed the rise and fall of the infamous kingpin Pablo Escobar, but now that they have reached the end of that – and him – they’re taking on the next chapter in the rise of the Colombian drug trade — the rise of the Cali Cartel.

The four Kings of the Cali Cartel — Damian Alcazar as Gilberto Rodriguez Orejuela, Francisco Denis as Miguel Rodriguez Orejuela, Alberto Ammann as Pacho Herrera, and Pepe Rapazote as Chepe Santacruz Londono — will be seen expanding their empire over New York City this season, but they aren’t stopping there.

“Try to go through the Cali bosses, all you’ll get are more bodies,” Peña is warned. “These guys don’t make mistakes.”

The third season will premiere on Netflix on September 1st and you can watch its trailer here:

dipil-kumr-nowLegendary actor Dilip Kumar’s wife Saira Banu is mum on reports of him suffering from a kidney ailment and says she is hopeful that he will recover soon with the prayers of his well-wishers and fans.

“We have to pray he recovers soon. He should be well Inshallah! God willing. The doctors are treating him,” Banu told PTI this morning, when asked about reports that Kumar is suffering from a renal ailment.

The 94-year-old acting legend is currently in the ICU at Lilavati hospital in suburban Bandra. He was admitted to the hospital on Wednesday morning after he suffered from dehydration and urinary tract infection.

According to some reports, Kumar’s kidney functions have not improved.

Dr Jalil Parkar, who is treating the actor at the hospital, was unavailable for a confirmation on this.

The thespian has given memorable performances in films like ‘Andaz’, ‘Aan’, ‘Madhumati’, ‘Devdas’, ‘Mughal-e-Azam’, ‘Ganga Jamuna’, ‘Kranti’, ‘Karma’ and others.

His last film was ‘Qila’ that released in 1998.
Known as the tragedy king of Bollywood, Kumar was honoured with the Dadasaheb Phalke Award, India’s highest award in cinema, in 1994 and the Padma Vibhushan, the country’s second-highest civilian award, in 2015.

aamir-srkAfter Aamir Khan tweeted about the success of Shah Rukh Khan‘s Jab Harry Met Sejal and congratulated him along with Anushka Sharma and Imtiaz Ali, it was Shah Rukh Khan’s turn to return the favour. The superstar replied to one of the tweets of Aamir Khan, where he had shared the trailer of his new film, Secret Superstar, and wrote, “This so much yaar. & as I mentioned ur trailer Secret Superstar is sooo endearing. Let me know when u can watch JHMS”

If you are confused by the tweet then let me decipher it for you. The first part of the tweet is for Aamir Khan’s other tweet where he said this, “Shahrukh, Anushka, Imitiaz, all the very best for your release tomorrow! I’m sure it will rock!! Looking forward !!! Love. a.” And then Shah Rukh went on to praise the trailer of Aamir’s upcoming film and called it endearing. He later asked Aamir when he would be free to watch Jab Harry Met Sejal.

We often see the bromance of Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan or Salman Khan and Aamir Khan, it is very rare that we see Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan sharing their affection for each other. This is one such moment. Let’s just hope the duo, who has never shared screen space apart from a cameo in Pehla Nasha, sign a film soon with full-fledged roles for each. That film will be a sure shot blockbuster.

One of the most hyped tunes from ‘A Gentleman’, namely ‘Chandralekha’, is finally out and you can’t help but to groove to this number. This is the same song, whose teaser was enough to make us go gaga over the incredibly pretty Jacqueline Fernandez. 

The gorgeous diva’s sexy moves will definitely raise the temperature, while Sidharth Malhotra’s fabulous dance moves will make you want to slip on your dancing shoes. 

One look at this song and you’ll be wishing that your office parties were this cool.

While the name of the song sounds pretty serious……the actual tune is fun, peppy and groovy. No doubt Sidharth Malhotra is killing it in the song, but it is Jacqueline who makes our heart race faster. 

Looking at this song, we’re totally envious; after all, which office party is this hot! From hot and sexy people to a scintillating pole dance…….where do such parties take place? These two dancing together is the best thing we will see today. Pole dance or not, ‘Chandralekha’ is absolutely the party song of the year. 

Watch out this hot and happening video below:

The film is slated to be released on August 25th, 2017.

The tipsy ‘Kaavaan Kaavan’ has made a comeback and colour us shocked if it isn’t one of the grooviest tunes of the year. If you loved the original song in ‘Monsoon Wedding’ by Sukhwinder Singh, it goes without saying that you are bound to love this one as well.

The slick tune is sung by Divya Kumar and starts with Farhan Akhtar day dreaming about everyone chanting his name. The song plays as the background as Akhtar and Deepak Dobriyal discuss their plan to breakout of jail.  

When we heard this song in Mira Nair’s film 16 years ago, little did we know that it would become an iconic generational tune. There was not a party or a wedding that was complete without playing this song. And now, Farhan Akhtar has given this beautiful number a new meaning altogether, making us all super nostalgic. 

This song acts more like an inspiring tune for people who want to break the mould and breathe in free. Well, Frahan looks fab (as always) but it is Gippy Grewal who grabs your attention. 

The famous singer is finally making his acting debut with this film and his desi swag adds real flavour to this wonderful song. 

Just like Sukhwinder, Divya has infused his infectious energy into the song, making it every bit as addictive as the original version. 

Check out the foot-tapping tune yourself and get ready to groove to its peppy beats:

The film is slated to be released on September 15.

Every year, Bollywood is flooded with tons of movies. Some are exceptionally good and some are so bad that we just wonder why the film was even made in the first place. But then you release that it was just made for the celebrities featuring in the film. The makers made it keeping the actors in mind while it should be the other way around.

Well, to put it simply, these films are made so we can see star kids more and more. Bollywood is a place where these new-comers are given endless chances. Some have proved themselves and we definitely admire them. But there are some who are just as terrible as their films are.

Of course, Bollywood is an industry where both kinds of films are made, but some films are made just for the sake of these star kids. Here are some films that ideally shouldn’t have been made but they were, anyway.

Neal N Nikki

We bet many of you might have already guessed that this would be the first film to make it to this list. Every time I watch this film, I just wonder why was this film even made?

TBH, if an option was ever given, these actors would prefer to delete this film from the history.

P.S: In fact, all Uday Chopra movies were a sheer waste of money, time and energy. But then Yash Raj Films can afford that. Paisa bolta hai!

Mirzya

This Rakesh Omprakash Mehra film was so bad that people had to take disprin by the time they reached home (telling this from a personal experience). And guess who starred in the film? It was none other than Anil Kapoor’s son Harshvardhan Kapoor. Let’s hope he doesn’t repeat this mistake again.

Koi Mere Dil Se Poochhe

Starring Esha Deol and Aftab Shivdasani, this film would have won the worst movie of the year if that category existed. But instead, Esha was given best female debutant of the year. Well, these things do happen only in B-town.

Saawariya

Famous as a blue film (not because of the content), this is the worst film by director Sanjay Leela Bhansali. It was so, so bad that you just couldn’t believe a director like Bhansali could create something like this. But then it was the film that introduced Ranbir Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor in the industry. And now you know why this film was created in the first place.

Main Prem Ki Deewani Hoon

Omg! The lesser we say the better. This is the perfect example of nepotism, three actors from famous B-town families coming together for a movie whose plot so too complex to be true. Despite them giving back to back flops, the director felt that they would make the perfect cast for the film. And what was the result? Yet, another flop of the year!

P.S. If you hate someone just make them watch this movie.

Mujhe Kuch Kehna Hai

Well, ‘Mujhe Bhi Kuch Kehna Hai’: please stop making such films. From Tushar Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor to over acting, this film had all the ingredients to be a disaster and it was!

Prem Aggan    

This film was such a brilliant piece of art that we still can’t stop talking about this film till date. Watch Fardeen Khan in an avatar that you will never get over.

Kal Kissne Dekha

Starring Jackky Bhagnani, son of famous producer Vashu Bhagnani, this film is beyond everyone’s comprehension. In fact, no one knew when this movie came and went. However, this was just the start of some brilliant movies starring Jackky.

Jimmy

‘Jimmy Jimmy Jimmy…….jaaa jaaa jaaa jaaa jaaa jaaa’, that’s the feeling you get after watching this film starring Mithun Chakraborty’s son Mimoh Chakraborty. Feel blessed that he didn’t make it big in the industry.

Machine

Starring Mustafa Burmawala, ‘Machine’ was directed by the famous duo Abbas-Mustan. Even though the film recreated the song ‘Tu Cheez Badi Hai Mast Mast’ and called Akshay Kumar for its promotion, it tanked big time. We wouldn’t be surprised if you didn’t even know this film even existed.  

And then film industry says that nepotism doesn’t exist. How ironic, isn’t it?

Blame it on the maker or the music director, after creating so much buzz, the song Phurrr from ‘Jab Harry Met Sejal’ is finally out. And believe it or not, this song is all that you never asked for.

Well, it begins and not a single moment in the video impresses you. The least you can say is that it’s a lot like a nursery rhyme but not one that we loved or remember.

SRK & Diplo's Much-Awaited Song 'Phurrr' Is The Biggest Disappointment© Red Chillies Entertainment

For days we couldn’t keep calm; after all, Shah Rukh Khan was collaborating with popular music producer Diplo and here’s the song we waited for so long. Phurrr, just like its name should Phurrr, so we don’t have to hear it again. The song is said to be based on Anushka Sharma’s character Sejal and we really hope it is nothing like this song or it will leave tons of us disappointed.

Remember the time Akon and SRK collaborated? Boy, even now when Chamak Challo and Criminal is played we can’t help ourselves but groove to the music. The same was expected this time…but it turned out to be a champagne with no fizz.  

SRK & Diplo's Much-Awaited Song 'Phurrr' Is The Biggest Disappointment© Red Chillies Entertainment

Composed by Pritam, Diplo, and Rocky Wellseteck and sung by Tushar Joshi and Omit Chauhan, this is the biggest disappointment of the year. The only highlight of the song is Diplo striking King Khan’s signature pose.

A look at the video and you will release that it looks like a work where no one cared enough about this huge collaboration. Neither SRK nor Diplo look interested in whatsoever is being done. You have senseless lyrics, bad background score, terrible visuals and weird choreography…this pretty much sums up what we feel after looking at SRK and Diplo together.

Watch it for yourself and let us know what you think!

Among the 40 films affected by Tuesday’s strike by the Film Employee’s Federation of South India (FEFSI) in Chennai is PA Ranjith’s Rajinikanth-starrer, Kaala Karikalan. An extensive 45-day schedule in Mumbai’s Dharavi was to be followed by a 30-day plan to can action sequences in Chennai’s EVP Studios, where a replica of the Mumbai locality had been recreated.

A source tells mid-day, “Nearly 1,000 employees of the FEFSI participated in the strike. Most of the action sequences were to be shot at the Chennai set. Rajini sir and Huma [Qureshi, co-actor] had filmed for a few portions in Mumbai, but given that a lot of property was going to be damaged while filming the scenes, the unit decided to move to a studio.”

Among those affected by the hit in the schedule is Qureshi, who had specific dates assigned for the Chennai leg, before she jumped into promotional work for her Indo-Brit film, Viceroy’s House. She says, “The strike is affecting the entire industry. I hope all parties concerned solve the issue at the earliest. We look forward to returning to the set and resume shooting.”

While the unit awaits an end to the protest, alternative locations in Mumbai are being scouted. It is speculated that if filming doesn’t resume in a week, the team may return to the city to avoid wasting money and crucial time. Producer Dhanush will decide the further course of action with Rajinikanth over the weekend, the source says.

Yesterday, the South superstar also pleaded with members of both associations to solve the dispute “through peaceful dialogue”. He said, “Strike is one among the words I don’t like. A solution can be found for any issue without giving space to personal egos and keeping in mind the general good. Please hold unconditional talks. About 10,000 persons are affected and even you [producers] are facing losses. As a senior actor, I request members of FEFSI and Tamil Film Producers’ Council to discuss and find a solution to the dispute very soon.”

What irked the FEFSI

The FEFSI, a conglomeration of workers’ union, had called for the strike after the Tamil Film Producers’ Council (TFPC) suggested it would work with craftsmen from outside the union over a dispute on wages. The FEFSI alleged the council had backtracked on a previous agreement based on stipend.
