Daniel Radcliffe has starred in some interesting projects including ‘The Woman In Black’, ‘Victor Frankenstein’ and even ‘Imperium’. However, y’all should get ready to watch him like never before in his upcoming movie ‘Jungle’.

The movie is inspired by a real life incident where 3 friends set off on a bag packing trip to La Paz. They meet an Austrian expat who claims to know the Amazon forest too well and lure the friends on an adventure of a lifetime. The trip turns into a ghoulish nightmare and Yossi Ghinsberg survives to tell the tale. The movie is taken from the book that he wrote about it.

Daniel plays the lead who struggles to survive in the jungle for weeks. The trailer is creepy, which is good because that’s the whole intention behind it. The movie is directed by Greg McLean, who in the past has also directed ‘The Belko Experiment.’

Ghinsberg, the man who survived the horror in real life explained in an interview that even though the movie might look scary and creepy, in real life, it was worse. Daniel is sporting a beard and that Israelii accent is spot on. He nails the whole look with his stellar acting. Even if the movie is not a hit, one will remember it as a great performance from his end. The movie also stars Thomas Kretschmann, Alex Russell, Joel Jackson, and Yasmin Kassim along with Radcliffe. The movie premiered at the Melbourne International Film Festival and is gearing up for a release in October 2017.

The Kapoor boy has now signed his third movie which is a biopic on Abhinav Bindra. He took to his Instagram profile to share the happy news with everyone.

Beginnings are very special. Especially when you get to play a character that has made the nation proud on world stage. I am stoked to have been chosen to play #AbhinavBindra and hopefully will do justice to the man, the legend! Like the man himself said “Hard Work is a talent.” #LetsDoThis

A post shared by Harshvardhan Kapoor (@harshvardhankapoor) on Sep 5, 2017 at 10:06am PDT

“The biopic is a big responsibility because of the subject matter. It is the most mammoth responsibility I’ve ever shouldered. I roped in Abhay, who wrote the final draft of Bhavesh Joshi, to work on a new draft of the Bindra biopic. We are taking the script into a really exciting place. It’s about externalising internal conflicts, and making it emotionally and visually spectacular”, he mentioned in an interview. Abhinav Bindra is an Olympic gold medallist in shooting and is also a recipient of the Padma Bhushan. He won gold at the Beijing Olympics 2008 in the 10m air rifle tournament.

The Terrifying Trailer Of 'Insidious : The Last Key' Unlocks A Whole New Round Of Scares

If you thought the ‘Insidious’ series was done after the third movie, think again. Successful horror franchises never quite die, and this one is no different.

There’s not a better franchise whisperer than James Wan right now, and after launching both the ‘Saw’ and ‘Conjuring’ series, he also took on 2015’s pivotal Furious 7, a great entry into an already great franchise that paved the way for many, many more years of good Fast movies. Other than that, he’ll also be tackling ‘Aquaman’, a DC movie coming out next year.

‘Insidious’ falls between all of these accomplishments, with the franchise beginning in 2010, and now it’s entering its fourth chapter, ‘The Last Key’. Even though this series hasn’t reached the level of ‘The Conjuring’ and ‘Saw’, it is still quite an entertaining and successful franchise.

One of the big tag lines of the original Insidious was “it’s not the house that’s haunted”, and it does seem to be quite applicable for this latest one as well. In ‘The Last Key’, the veteran spook investigator, Lin Shaye, will discover that it’s also a very personal case. In this one, Shaye’s character Dr. Elise Rainier is contacted by a desperate family (led by Kirk Acevedo), as they are experiencing and being tortured by truly terrifying apparitions since they moved into their new house.

But, as soon as she reaches there, Elise realizes that the house is a little too familiar, being the same house she grew up in. The movie will have Elise dealing with new a supernatural menace along with her own past, but the scariest part is the introduction of a weird new villain: A demonic creature with keys for fingers that has an unpleasant affinity for plunging them into people’s necks.

Well, the use of the word ‘last’ in the title might be an indication to this being the final instalment of the franchise, so let’s enjoy it while it lasts! ‘Insidious : The Last Key’ is set to hit the theatres in January next year.

Akshay Kumar Raises 6.5 Crores For Soldiers Within Minutes With An Emotional Appeal

Celebrities

Sep 052017

On days when Akshay Kumar is not busy smashing box office records with his exceptional movies, the actor is occupied with providing financial help to the families of martyred soldiers. His love for the Indian Armed Forces isn’t unknown and the fact that Akshay always stands next to the families of jawans, even in times of distress is something we truly love and respect him for. Earlier this year, he suggested the launch of the app and website called ‘Bharat Ke Veer’, which was acknowledged and brought about a positive change almost instantly. He has earlier donated crores to the families and even urged his fans to contribute financially to the cause.

This time around, Akshay helped raise Rs. 6.5 crores at the event for the families of the martyred soldiers. At a conference called, India Rising, the actor made an impromptu speech where he informed the businessmen about this website, a platform where anyone can make the donations. His sincere appeal reached the right ears, which got the CEO and corporate honchos to raise Rs. 6.5 crores for the families of martyred soldiers. Akshay reportedly said, “I just felt like talking about the bharatkeveer initiative because the entire audience comprised high profiled individuals with influence and resources. If they won’t come forward for the cause of our armed forces, who will?”

The actor first spoke about the 112 slain soldiers, whose details are mentioned on the website and stay there till the time the amount of donation to their family does not reach 15 lakh rupees. The 49-year-old further added, “These martyrs belong to various states of India. I said if each corporate or CEO pledged to adopt martyrs of at least one state, we could raise enough funds to remove as many soldiers’ details from the site as possible. I started with volunteering to donate for all martyrs from Maharashtra.” Well, when someone is so passionate about a noble cause, how can one not be moved by it? The actor who was overwhelmed by such a great response said that they raised this huge amount within minutes.

In fact, apart from providing financial aid to the families of martyred, he is also someone who actively works towards creating awareness about social issues, things which have been pulling our society down for the longest time now. His latest release ‘Toilet: Ek Prem Katha’ and its success is proof of his hard work and efforts.

Shocking! Suniel Shetty's fan records his video, actor gets it deleted

Suniel Shetty

We were passing by Worli recently, when we spotted Suniel Shetty alight from his car, near his interiors store. Passers-by stopped to stare. One of them started video recording the actor on his mobile phone.

Anna was certainly not pleased. He told the store’s security guard to get hold of the fan’s cell phone and delete the recording. Anna, who is in his mid-50s, is in ship-shape and always nattily dressed, so we wonder why he did not want to be on camera. It was clearly not the fan’s day.

After impressing Marathi film audience and bagging three National Awards, Priyanka Chopra’s production, Ventilator (2016) is set to find a wider audience. The Rajesh Mapuskar-directed comedy-drama is being adapted into a Gujarati play.

Confirming the news to mid-day, the actor’s mother Madhu Chopra, who heads their production house, says, “It’s a rare occasion where a film is being adapted into a play. The film made us proud on the national level and I hope people shower the same love towards it when it comes on stage.”

Still from Ventilator

The play will be helmed by acclaimed theatre director Rajesh Joshi, the man behind Code Mantra — one of the costliest productions on Gujarati stage. Chopra adds that Joshi is an apt choice as he shares similar sensibilities.

“We’re glad that he is making it because he knows what he wants. Joshi is not making any changes to the script, he’s simply adapting it to suit the sensibilities of the Gujarati audience. I have read a few scenes and they have been written well.”

She also reveals that Mapuskar is collaborating on the play as a creative consultant. “With him on board, Priyanka and I know that it is in safe hands,” she smiles.

The play is tentatively scheduled to open early November.

5 Funniest Zombie Comedy Movies You Can't Go Wrong With

Celebrities

Sep 052017

Zombies are cool. No I mean, they are actually cool, like they’re cold blooded! They are productive too. They never quit and they have only one dream job in their life and that is to kill humans and eat them alive. Also, then make them their best-est friend forever until they become martyrs when shot directly into the head. Finish? No. One more headshot. Just to confirm. Always double tap.

Remember this scene from the Saif Ali Khan starrer ‘Go Goa Gone’. Take a look at the clip at 1 minute 50 seconds. It’s damn good.

Here is a list of 5 zombie movies you can not go wrong with. They might not have warm blood running through their veins but trust me, they do have a funny bone. And, so do the zombie killers.

1. Zombieland

Woody Harrelson stars with Jesse Eisenberg and Emma Stone. Do I really need to say more? Okay cool. If you insist. Simple! they kill zombies and how! Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson) loves Twinkies and will go to ends of the earth to find them. He kills them in style too. They lovingly call it the ‘Zombie Kill of the Week’. They don’t call each other by their real names. I don’t know why? They refer to each other as Columbus, Tallahassee, Wichita, and Little Rock. Watch the movie to know who is who. It’s definitely one of the funniest zombie movies out there.

2. Shaun of the Dead

I’m not too sure why but ‘Shaun of the Dead’ could have been at the first place on the list. Maybe because it was one of the first movies which set the trend for the coming Zombie comedy movies.

In the film, Shaun is a salesman who is going nowhere in life. His relationship is a mess and so is his existence. It’s a banal, boring life that adds zero excitement in his life, until, a bloody zombie outbreak! Watch it for bros – Shaun and Ed who are the best tag-team in horror, only surpassed by Tucker and Dale.

3. Dawn of the Dead

This is a movie directed by Zack Snyder. Yes, the same Zack Snyder who directed the testosterone-filled epic ‘300’ and the film adaptation of ‘Watchmen’. You might not find the funny part instantly, but as the story settles down you will start seeing his work and which is completely mind blowing and I mean literally mind blowing. Bam! And after all, it is no offense to kill a celebrity look-alike zombie when there is an infinite supply of them and a shit load of ammunition.

4. Warm Bodies

Who goes on a date with a zombie? Not metaphorically a zombie, but on a date with a real one.

Usually, a zombie makes more zombies but this one is a different case. A warm and loving girl falls in love with a really cool zombie and his dead heart is brought back to life by her affection. Stranger than fiction right? They say it is a teen romance movie. Is it? Watch it and find out.

5. Dead Before Dawn

Funniest Zombie Comedy Movies You Can't Go Wrong With © Discover Movies to Pin

It is a story about some college students who accidentally break an evil urn. What comes next? A curse that causes everyone who makes eye contact with them to kill themselves and turn into zombies. It’s college. It’s got to be fun.

After 10 seasons of ‘Friends’, it’s difficult to pick a quote, but one thing we’ve learned is that it’s important to have a sturdy group of friends who will be there for you! Who better than Phoebe Buffay to pick a gem of a life lesson?

Grey’s Anatomy

Life Lessons From Our Favourite TV Shows © ABC Studios

‘Grey’s Anatomy’ is the medical drama that provided insightful lessons about Dr. Meredith Grey and her pals. The dialogue is peppered with effervescent hopefulness and nuggets of motivation. There is not an episode of this show that doesn’t teach you some or the other vital things about life, be it small or big.

Game Of Thrones

Well, well, this show is a great hit and there is no one who doesn’t love it. Tyrion Lannister’s witticisms are legendary, mostly because he owns who he is. So, listen to the king’s hand, embrace your flaws and twist them to your own advantage. Because that’s how you are supposed to live life!

Suits

Is there anyone who doesn’t get moved by Harvey Spectre? His one-liners elevate his hot-shot lawyer status and man you tend to love his attitude toward life. One hell of a lawyer, he is known for ‘winning’. Time to take a chapter from his life and aim for more.

New Girl

The awkward, truthful and vivacious Jessica Day has won hearts all over with her candid hilariousness. She is the one who leaves you in splits with a healthy dose of realism. Yay! You rock Jessica.

Westworld

Nothing like a dialogue on the intricacies of morality to help us embrace our humanity. Dolores’ monologue will make you question your mortality. One hell of a life lesson indeed!

This Is Us

The show’s poignant depiction of human relationships is so real that eventually you end up connecting to it. Jack Pearson personifying both husband and father goals is just what everybody needs to turn their day around!

The 24-year-old British singer’s mom, Trisha Malik revealed his new look on Instagram, by posting a picture posing with a VERY bald Zayn and his girlfriend, Gigi Hadid.

Comments from the picture range from “you look cute” to “WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR HAIR?” Well, at least, it seems like Gigi approves, judging by her smile in the picture.

This is probably the first time Zayn’s hair has shocked people so much, with people mourning his long, dark, lustrous hair on Twitter, while also making fun of him, obviously.
