Ranveer Singh Is The Desi Deadpool We Never Knew We Needed & The Movie's Hindi Trailer Is Proof

You will not find one person not counting the days till they can see Wade Wilson in action in ‘Deadpool 2’, however, we were not so sure if the Hindi version might find people equally excited. But now that we know that the one and only Ranveer Singh is voicing Deadpool in the Hindi version of the second installment, all those doubts have vanished into thin air.

Based on the Marvel Comics’ most unconventional anti-hero, Deadpool is the tale of a former Special Forces operative who turns into a mercenary. Despite his torturous transformation, he still has his wit and humor intact. Ergo the title, ‘the merc with the mouth’, and who better to bring that voice to life in Hindi than the adorably eccentric Ranveer?

âš” MAUSHICHI âš” #Deadpool2Hindi Trailer drops at 12pm @foxstarindia

A post shared by Ranveer Singh (@ranveersingh) on May 6, 2018 at 10:06pm PDT

The man, who has impressed us as the menacing Alauddin Khilji in ‘Padmaavat’, has now taken another interesting character. One look at the Hindi trailer and you will agree that he is the ideal pick for the voice over. If there is anyone who could have justified Ryan Reynolds’ character it was just Ranveer.  

Ranveer puts his trademark skills to this role, cursing like a boss, jumping from Marathi to Punjabi accents like a pro.

However, this isn’t the first Hindi trailer we’ve seen of the film. The first one had a different voice which somehow talked about PM Modi’s Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan and Aadhaar card.

‪Astonishing how effectively I’ve managed to out-crass my Canadian counterpart @vancityreynolds. Never realised how fulfilling & rewarding foul Hindi language can be! #Deadpool2Hindi @FoxStarIndia Trailer link in bio.

A post shared by Ranveer Singh (@ranveersingh) on May 6, 2018 at 11:31pm PDT

Earlier, reports had suggested that Ranveer had rejected the role due to his work commitments but we are glad things have worked out. Because if it wasn’t for him, Deadpool would have never sounded this amazing. Just imagine him saying, “Teri maa ka Sakinaka” or “Kitna taras dega Thanos”!

To all the Mumbaikars out there, we tell you this kickass version of Deadpool is worth a watch (just hear the dialogues once).  Ranveer boss, you clearly are ‘THE’ actor and we are mega impressed!

I was telling @virgilabloh about @purevnv and how I used the creative session to create a rough draft of what a collaboration w/ the @nike Air Force 1 could look like. It’s not the greatest but it’s a start… a first draft if you may. The best part to me was writing “Dream” and “Future” on the insoles -to indicate our aspiration to co-create India’s first country-specific release. He said that he too used to dream of doing a collaboration w Nike and he got it. He proceeded to sign the shoe “VNV” and asked me to keep it on display at the store. Come by and see it and share with us some ideas of what you would “dream” to see of a “future” collaboration of!

Amitabh Bachchan Savagely Trolls Twitter Proving He Is The 'Shahenshah' Of Wit

 Celebrities
May 052018
 

For all those who follow Amitabh Bachchan and love his sense of humour, we have a new development to report that might interest you a lot.

Let’s start with February, when the megastar, lost thousands of fans. That obviously disappointed him a lot. From that day till today, nothing much has changed, and it seems like Mr.Bachchan can’t get over that loss (we feel you, sir).

Time and again he has used the platform to express his views. Time and again he has been trolled. But the tables have turned and Shahenshah of Bollywood has savagely trolled Twitter, giving us an evil pleasure of sorts.

We always knew he was epic with his one-liners, but this tweet has set the bars even higher.  

Taking to his Twitter, he wrote, ” T 2795 – Arre yaar Twitter ji .. yaar ab toh hamare numbers badha do .. kab se itna kuch dal rahe hain .. kuch aur karna ho, number badhane ke liye to bolo… TJKBM !!!”

T 2795 – Arre yaar Twitter ji .. yaar ab toh hamare numbers badha do .. kab se itna kuch dal rahe hain .. kuch aur karna ho, number badhane ke liye to boloðŸ™?ðŸ™?ðŸ™?ðŸ™?ðŸ™?ðŸ™?ðŸ™? .. TJKBM !!! pic.twitter.com/V5L4AMJNGq

— Amitabh Bachchan (@SrBachchan) May 4, 2018

While we totally understand the tweet and its intention, people can’t understand what ‘TJKBM’ means. And the users on Twitter have come up with their own explanation which ranges from “Twitter Ji Ki Badi Mahima” to “Twitter Jaldi Karodpati Bana Mujhe”.

However, this isn’t the first time B Big has directly asked ‘Twitter ji’ to increase his tweet.

Just two days ago, he tweeted, “T 2793 – Dear Twitter Management, its quite amazing how you manage to keep numbers of followers CONSTANT, & not moving AT ALL despite maximum activity !!.. well done !! I mean how do you keep the score board from not moving despite every ball being hit for a 6 !!”

T 2793 – Dear Twitter Management , its quite amazing how you manage to keep numbers of followers CONSTANT, & not moving AT ALL  despite maximum activity !!ðŸ‘?ðŸ‘?ðŸ‘?ðŸ‘?ðŸ‘?.. well done !! I mean how do you keep the score board from not moving despite every ball being hit for a  6 !! pic.twitter.com/oDZU9xxYAZ

— Amitabh Bachchan (@SrBachchan) May 2, 2018

Well, it looks like Twitter has highly disappointed the superstar and he ain’t ready to let go of his ire just yet.

For people who wonder, how all this started. It happened in February this year, when the New York Times came with a report claiming that a lot of people ‘buy’ Twitter followers and there are many bots following celebrity accounts. In response to this, Twitter went on a cleaning hunt, reducing numbers of followers for many celebs, including Bachchan. He lost around 60,000 followers and this didn’t go well with him.

Then he tweeted, “T 2599 – TWITTER ..!!!?? you reduced my number of followers .. !!??HAHAHAHAHAHAHA .. !! thats a joke .. time to get off from you .. thank you for the ride .. there are many other fish in the sea – and a lot more exciting !!”

T 2599 – TWITTER ..!!!??  you reduced my number of followers .. !!??HAHAHAHAHAHAHA .. !! thats a joke .. time to get off from you .. thank you for the ride .. 😠😠😠 .. there are many ‘other’ fish in the sea – and a lot more exciting !! pic.twitter.com/85c15pDif4

— Amitabh Bachchan (@SrBachchan) January 31, 2018

If you have seen clearly, every tweet he puts out has a picture featuring him and it’s amazing to see how most of the picture co-ordinates with the message he writes.

In fact, this is AB’s usually thing as he often goes on a roll tweeting out. A while ago his new victim was Anushka Sharma, who was pulled up for not replying to his message.

All in all, it’s fun to follow Senior Bachchan, because he just never disappoints you.

 

 

Tagore's Kabuliwala Is Back & Danny Denzongpa As 'Bioscopewala' Is Making Us Super Nostalgic

 Celebrities
May 052018
 

Growing up would have never been the same if it wasn’t for Rabindranath Tagore’s ‘Kabuliwala’. This beautiful heartbreaking story was a treat that we enjoyed reading as children. 90’s kids will understand what we are talking about.

Giving the classic old tale a new twist is Deb Medhekar’s ‘Bioscopewala’, an adaptation of Tagore’s famous short story. One look at it and prepare yourself for the waterworks. Better to keep a tissues box nearby. Starring Danny Denzongpa as ‘Bioscopewala’, Geetanjali Thapa, Tisca Chopra, Adil Hussain, and Sunil Doshi, the movie will hit the screens on May 25.

For people who don’t know, Kabuliwala (1892) is a story that touches your heart and soul. In Tagore’s story, he was a dry fruit seller from Afghanistan who becomes friends with a young girl, Mini. Their friendship grows and he exchanges various stories with her. All of a sudden he disappears, only to appear once again after a long time. He meets his little friend, only to release things have changed and she is not that young anymore.

Just like any other Tagore’s stories, this is simple and that’s what makes it heart wrenching. It presents a commentary on the human relationship that we often fail to see.

Img(c) Fox Star India

In Danny Denzongpa’s latest adaptation, instead of a dry fruits seller, we see a bioscopewala. The sepia-toned of the frame gives it a soothing feel and intrigues you instantly to get invested in Deb Medhekar’s world.

And of course, Danny Denzongpa magnificent makeover puts everything in place. This little video clip makes us nostalgic, taking us down the memory lane.

Talking about Anil’s performance, a source told Filmfare, “Anil is ecstatic about his performance on Sonam and Anand’s sangeet. He will perform on two of his favourite numbers – Gallan Goodiyan from ‘Dil Dhadakne Do’ and My Name is Lakhan from ‘Ram Lakhan’. It will be more fun because Satish Kaushik and Anupam Kher will also be joining Anil.”

And before everyone wonders on what song will the couple dance to. We have the info right here. The list is filled with songs from Sonam’s movies. Tareefan from ‘Veere Di Wedding’, Abhi Toh Party Shuru Hui Hai from ‘Khoobsurat’ and the ‘Prem Ratan Dhan Payo’ title track.

True stories that are inspirational in nature deserve to be glorified on the silver screen and that’s what Karan Johar is doing next. While Dharma production has various movies lined up this year, it is the biopic on the life of Kargil war hero “Sher Shah” Vikram Batra that has caught everyone’s attention.

Playing this character needs someone who can get into the skin of Vikram, and Sidharth Malhotra has been roped in to play this role. For Sid, who is considered to be an average actor, this might be a game-changing film for him.

However, Sid isn’t the first one to play Vikram Batra, as Abhishek Bachchan already had portrayed this role in 2003 in ‘LOC Kargil’. So it would be interesting to see if he can nail that bit as Jr. Bachchan did.

For those who don’t know, Vikram Batra was a Kargil hero who was awarded the Param Vir Chakra – India’s highest war-time gallantry award.

Directed by Vishnu Varadhan and written by Sandeep Srivastava, the story of ‘Sher Shah’ will indeed give us goosebumps if presented in the right way.

While we have seen Sid playing various roles that have entertained the viewers, this might be the one role that will change his image forever and bring about a turning point in his career.

In Avengers 200, Carol Danvers was shown in a way that wasn’t appreciated by the fans. She was kidnapped, brainwashed and made to believe she was in love with an interdimensional being. This resulted in her having a child names Marcus.
