Filmmaker and producer Siddharth P Malhotra has had a good 2026. His Netflix film Ikka, starring Sunny Deol and Akshaye Khanna, grabbed a lot of eyeballs earlier this year. Now, his web show Shaque: Trust No One on the same platform has been doing well too. In an exclusive chat with Bollywood Hungama, Malhotra revealed that both the projects will have a second part. “Ikka has broken records. There is Ikka 2 being worked on. Shaque has now broken records and Shaque Season 2 is being done. It has been a great year. Shaque Season 2 won’t continue the same story. It will be a new story. But a season 2 is in the works.

EXCLUSIVE: BIG BREAKTHROUGH for Salman Khan’s Maatrubhumi as it gets government clearance; revised film shows India-China ties in a positive light

Bollywood Hungama has been at the forefront in giving news about Salman Khan-starrer Maatrubhumi. The film was announced as Battle Of Galwan and was rechristened to Maatrubhumi earlier this year. The film is based on the 2020 conflict between India and China and since relations between the two countries have improved recently, the Ministry of Defence had reservations about the film’s content and mention of China in the film, causing its delay. However, a major development of the film occurred recently when the government cleared it for a theatrical release. A source told Bollywood Hungama, “The officials of the I&B Ministry are now satisfied with the new version of Maatrubhumi submitted by the makers. Hence, they gave an NOC to the war saga last week. This means that the film can now be made available for public consumption.” The source also revealed that Salman Khan has a release date in mind, “Salman Khan is now eyeing November 13. He believes that the post-Diwali period, when p...

Drishyam The Conclusion mania EXPLODES! Theatres add post-midnight shows BEFORE release; exhibitors asked to match Spider-Man, Dhurandhar The Revenge pricing

In November 2022, Drishyam 2 was among the first major films of the post-pandemic era to witness post-midnight and early morning shows, as theatres responded to the tremendous demand for the Ajay Devgn-led thriller. Four years later, history is repeating itself with Drishyam The Conclusion. The much-awaited third instalment of the franchise is all set for a historic opening today, October 2, and the unprecedented demand is already visible in the way exhibitors have opened up post-midnight shows even before release day. Unlike Drishyam 2, where several post-midnight shows were added only in the second half of the opening day, exhibitors have acted much earlier this time. Realizing that the advances for Day 1 are exceptionally strong and anticipating historic collections, several theatres began opening bookings for post-midnight shows as early as October 1, a day before the film's release. In Mumbai and the surrounding areas, post-midnight shows have been opened at PVR Lower Parel, ...
