Gabbar Has A Cameo In The Desi 'Avengers: Infinity War' Trailer & Thanos Couldn't Be Any Happier

Just when we thought the Hindi version of the ‘Avengers: Infinity War’ trailer could not get any more awesome, someone has blessed us with a new trailer that has left us with tears in our eyes. Tears of laughter to be precise. 

Honestly, this fan-made trailer is simply epic and too good to miss. Wondering why? Because it has a twist inspired by the classic Bollywood movie ‘Sholay’.

 “Yeh haath humko dede Thakur.” That’s exactly what you will hear Thanos saying loudly! He is just as epic as Gabbar. Man! Amjad Khan would have liked this new version as well if he was alive today.

Well, the footage is same but it’s the dialogue from our evergreen movie that’s adding the Bollywood masala and entertaining us to another level. It’s fun to see how someone else’s dialogue can sync perfectly with the original trailer. A sheer delight for Marvel and Bollywood fans, we must say!

Avengers Sholay(c) Marvel

You have the ‘Sholay’ theme track setting the clip in motion with Iron Man aka Tony Stark repeating Thakur’s dialogue. We bet, never in his life would Robert Doney Jr. have thought that there would come a day like this. And we are going crazy over his desi avatar. 

You have Hulk and Black Panther using Veeru’s dialogue and Black Widow as the feisty Basanti is amazing AF! And wait till you see who is  ‘Angrezo ke zamaane ka Jailer’.

Avengers: Infinity War(c) Marvel

Despite it just being a fan-made trailer, everything is so well put that you can clearly mistake it for an original. Original or not, we are loving ‘Avengers: Infinity War’ team as Angaray Banay Sholay and we are sure you will too.

Check out the trailer now:

“Ab aayega maaza khel ka.”

‘Avengers: Infinity War’ will hit the theatres on April 27.

Directed by Joe and Anthony Russo, this movie stars Robert Downey Jr, Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Mark Ruffalo, Jeremy Renner, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Chadwick Boseman among others.

The most awaited family comedy show ‘Khichdi’, all set to be back after 12 years. Official promo breaking tomorrow only on STAR Plus #khichdi @starplus

A post shared by Viral Bhayani (@viralbhayani) on Mar 23, 2018 at 7:46am PDT

Majethia plays Himanshu and is totally killing it in the promo. The story picks from exactly where it ended, which means everyone is behind Babuji (Anang Desai) who is still fed up of his insane family.

In fact, every time he is pissed off, it means we are having a perfectly entertaining day. You see Praful (Rajeev Mehta) doing exactly what he shouldn’t be doing and the innocent Hansa (Supriya Pathak) supporting her husband as always. Yeah, the duo is totally weird but we still love them.

Khichdi 2(c) HattsOff Productions

The kids are all grown up and we have our favourite Jayshree (Vandana Pathak) trying to handle everything.

For those of you don’t know ‘Khichdi’, it is a fun show based on an eccentric Gujarati family who are seen doing every absurd thing imaginable that will make you laugh your lungs out. The show made its debut in 2002 and was on the air for almost 2 years. It was one of the most watched family shows during the time. 

Khichdi 2 (c) HattsOff Productions

The fame of the show was so huge that later, it was even converted into a movie that performed pretty well in the box office. The show is all set to come back after a long gap of 12 years and will air from April 14, 2018. The show will air on Star Plus and Hotstar and we are going bonkers.

Actor Irrfan Khan, who is suffering from a neuroedocrine tumour, is not undergoing any Ayurvedic treatment, his spokesperson said today. Debunking the reports that Irrfan is consulting Ayurveda doctor Vaidya Balendu Prakash, who also treated Steve Jobs, the spokesperson said the actor once spoke to the doctor about his health but there have been no further “conversation or consultation”.

“As suggested by recent news reports, Mr Khan is not consulting with Vaidya Balendu Prakash. He at one point had contacted him but other than one phone call there has been no conversation or consultation whatsoever. It is unacceptable to be using someone’s illness for your own publicity and personal gain. Like Irrfan Khan’s previous statements, we all need to respect the space asked for and wait for him or his wife’s statement for any further update,” Irrfan’s spokesperson said in a statement.

The 51-year-old actor had recently said that he will be travelling abroad for the treatment.

While Race has been a successful franchise, producer Ramesh Taurani is well-aware that he has got a trump card in Salman Khan who has joined the cast of the third instalment. 

Khan, who is also one of the co-producers of Race 3 that also stars Jacqueline Fernandez, Anil Kapoor and Bobby Deol among others, is making the most of the star power that he brings to the action thriller – rumours are rife that the makers are eyeing a whopping Rs 150 crore for the film’s satellite rights.

A source reveals, “Salman Khan‘s last outing Tiger Zinda Hai (2017) had earned around Rs 70 crore from the satellite rights, which was said to be the highest price paid for a Bollywood film. With the actor joining the cast of Race 3, Taurani and he are looking at doubling the figure. After a few talks, the duo has decided that they will offer the airing rights at Rs 150 crore.”

The insider adds that a leading channel has already offered Rs 75 crore, but the producers are in no mood to reduce the price. “Salman has also decided to take a percentage of the film’s profit and the earnings from the satellite rights.” When contacted, Taurani said, “I am not aware [of this] and I would not like to talk about it.”

Mithoon says composing music for the Prabhudheva-starrer “Mercury”, a silent thriller, was an adventurous process for him. “When the film came to me and I sat with the director (Karthik Subbaraj), I realised the challenge I was getting into. Creating music for ‘Mercury’ was an adventurous process for me. I had to recreate music which is metaphorically reflective of the film’s narrative, but not the film. It was pretty interesting,” Mithoon told IANS.

“He wanted me to create a nine-minute piece where the music with a song…that will incorporate the deeper aspect of the narrative and the dance of the great Prabhudheva,” added the “Tum hi ho” composer. The film also features actor Sananth Reddy.

“I requested our lyricist Sayeed Quadri to retain the word ‘mercury’ in the song and play around it. The word ‘mercury’ has to do with dynamism as the song has ups and downs, musically. In the nine-minute piece, there is a part that goes into complete silence for a moment and raises up with zombie dance… of course by Prabhudheva. So yes, it is filled with musical adventure,” said Mithoon.

The film will release on April 13.

Rani Mukerji on Hichki success: Marital status doesn't affect box office figures

 Celebrities
Mar 242018
 

Rani Mukerji says that the audiences have celebrated working mothers and that she will be forever thankful to them

Rani Mukerji

Rani Mukerji is overwhelmed with the response she has got for her comeback film “Hichki” and says that the kind of love audiences have showered on the movie proves that good cinema and performance is the only thing that matters and not marital status or parenthood. Hichki marks Rani’s comeback to acting after a gap of four years. The film raked in Rs 3.30 crore on day one, a statement said.

Ecstatic over the response, Rani said, “All my life, I have tried to entertain, tried to spread love and happiness to my fans and audiences through my films. Their happiness made me happy, motivated me. Yesterday, I felt the same emotions that I had faced when my first film released. I was nervous. I was jittery. My first love is acting. Nothing gives me as much joy than being on the set of my film. I chose marriage when I wanted to.”

The actress, who has a daughter Adira, 2, says she chose motherhood and “I chose to prioritise these for four years before I again chose to return to my passion wanting to feel the rush of challenging myself with a truly remarkable role.”

On the first day of the film’s release, Rani felt like it was a “do or die test”.

“I did draw courage from the success stories of the outstanding artists who decided to settle down and then returned with great comebacks but deep down I was nervous that if I fail, I would be forever succumbing to the archaic stereotypes to the same hichkis that have been prevalent for so many years” she said.

“With the incredible love that audiences have showered on ‘Hichki’ and on me, they have proven that for them good cinema and good performance is the only thing that matters – not marital status, not parenthood,” added an emotional Rani.

The actress, 40, says that the audiences have celebrated working mothers and that she will be forever thankful to them. In “Hichki”, Rani plays the character of Naina Mathur who suffers from Tourette syndrome that forces an individual to make involuntary repetitive movements or sounds.

The Siddharth P. Malhotra directorial focuses on turning disadvantages into opportunities and staring down at challenges that life throws at one and ultimately winning over them. “This box office validation gives me incredible confidence to continue my journey as a working mother who can aim to balance her professional and personal life to a T,” Rani concluded.

Sonam Kapoor & Anand Ahuja To Have A Fairytale Geneva Wedding, Here Are All The Details

 Celebrities
Mar 242018
 

Speculations about Sonam Kapoor getting hitched to her longtime boyfriend Anand Ahuja has been in the news for a very long time. After Bollywood and the cricket fraternity’s favorite couple, Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma tied the knot, the rumors about Sonam and Ahuja following suit only intensified.

In fact lately, we have even heard about Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh planning to get married this year. Though we have no confirmation about Deps and Ranveer, we absolutely have some solid proof about Sonam and Anand.

“I can see myself in all things and all people around me.” MERRY CHRISTMAS 🎄 “A lot of different flowers make a bouquet.”

A post shared by sonamkapoor (@sonamkapoor) on Dec 25, 2017 at 4:39am PST

Well, last week Sonam was in London spending quality time with her businessman beau. The two kept giving us sneak-peeks into what they were up to. While it was a known fact that it will be a destination wedding, many claimed that it will either be Udaipur or Jaipur but the duo seems to have settled down with Geneva.

This year Sonam was in Geneva fulfilling her work commitment with her favourite girl Rhea, when she decided that it would be the best place for her big day!

I see myself all around me 👀… a lot of people make a bouquet ðŸ’?.:: or something … what she said 👉ðŸ?¼@sonamkapoor ! 🤙ðŸ?¼âœ¨âš¡ï¸?😎 #EverydayPhenomenal

A post shared by anand ahuja (@anandahuja) on Dec 25, 2017 at 8:14am PST

Talking about the marriage, a source who is involved in the wedding planning told the Mumbai Mirror, “The date and venue for the wedding have been locked and mass bookings for flights are presently underway. Her dad Anil Kapoor is personally making phone calls to invite guests. There will be sangeet and mehendi ceremonies, followed by a traditional Hindu wedding.”

Giving more information the source added, “The nuptials will be preceded by an engagement ceremony attended by the family’s inner circle but the venue for that is presently not known.”

Chillin’ out maxin’, relaxin’ all cool 😎😛 …. 2/3

A post shared by anand ahuja (@anandahuja) on Aug 8, 2017 at 6:47pm PDT

Well, since this news has come out, a number of designers are in a frenzy over whom she will pick, but she has already made her choice and has decided to go with Abu Jani and Sandeep Khosla and the duo Tamara Ralph and Michael Russo for designing her wedding trousseau.

Nothing official has been announced, but looking at Sonam and Anand’s recent PDA spike on social media, one can surely say they are going strong and are totally in love with each other. Also, Sonam is a person who never speaks about her personal relationships and issues in public, so we wouldn’t be surprised if she decides to have a secret marriage away from eyes of her fans and media.
