Border 2 song ‘Sandese Aate Hain’ to release on January 2 at Longewala with BSF: Report

One of the most iconic patriotic songs in Indian cinema, ‘Sandese Aate Hain’, is set to return in a deeply symbolic manner ahead of Border 2. Now it has been revealed that the recreated version of the song will be officially released on January 2 at Longewala, with events planned at Tanot Mata Mandir and Babliyan in the presence of the Border Security Force (BSF). The promotional video of the track is expected to be unveiled shortly, either on December 27 or December 28. The decision to launch the song at Longewala carries strong emotional and historical significance. The region is closely associated with the events that inspired the original Border (1997), and releasing the song in collaboration with the BSF underscores the film’s tribute to India’s armed forces. The venue choices—Tanot Mata Mandir and Babliyan—further strengthen the patriotic undertone, aligning the music launch with the spirit of sacrifice, duty, and remembrance. Earlier in the day, it was revealed that the recrea...

Jaideep Ahlawat replaces Akshaye Khanna in Ajay Devgn starrer Drishyam 3

The much-anticipated third instalment of the Drishyam franchise appears to be undergoing a significant casting shake-up. If industry buzz is to be believed, Akshaye Khanna has exited Drishyam 3, and the makers have roped in Jaideep Ahlawat as his replacement in the Ajay Devgn-led thriller. Not too long ago, reports had hinted at possible issues between Akshaye Khanna and the makers of Drishyam 3. While there was no official confirmation at the time, the latest developments suggest that the actor has indeed stepped away from the project. Reports now claim that Jaideep Ahlawat, who has been receiving widespread appreciation for his performances in Pataal Lok Season 2 and The Family Man Season 3, has been finalised to take his place. Akshaye Khanna has been enjoying a strong resurgence at the box office, thanks to back-to-back projects where he portrayed layered, grey characters. He was recently seen as Aurangzeb in Chhaava and followed it up with a pivotal role in the recently released...

BREAKING: Mumbai's BIGGEST birthday billboard - Being Human lights up Sea Link for Salman Khan's 60th, an honour reserved for the RARE few

Mumbai doesn’t hand out its biggest “respect signals” casually. And when the Bandra-Worli Sea Link, one of the city’s most iconic, most visible landmarks, glows with a tribute, it instantly becomes more than just a birthday wish. It becomes a statement. On the eve of Salman Khan turning 60 tomorrow (December 27), Being Human has put up a striking, larger-than-life salute at the Sea Link, turning the nightly skyline into a celebration of a man who has remained a constant in India’s pop culture for decades. In a city where stars come and go with Friday box office swings, Salman has built something rarer: longevity that feels personal to generations, across single screens, multiplexes, and now the social-media age. What makes this moment especially notable is the venue itself. The Sea Link isn’t just a bridge—it’s Mumbai’s postcard, a symbol of the city’s pace and pride. Very few initiatives or messages get honoured in this manner at this location, and that scarcity is precisely what el...

EXCLUSIVE: Ratan Jain on January 2026 re-release of Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2: "I'm NOT blaming anybody; big films will get supported…will announce new date next week"

The comic caper Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon 2, starring Kapil Sharma, managed to get a near-unanimous positive reaction from the audience. The film was appreciated for Kapil's performances and also for its jokes that landed well, a rarity in today's times. A few hours ago, the makers of the film announced that ‘its theatrical run was impacted by limited screen availability due to ongoing multiplex takeovers by other releases’. Hence, it’ll be withdrawn from cinemas and will be re-released in January 2026. Bollywood Hungama spoke exclusively with Ratan Jain of Venus Worldwide Entertainment. He also categorically made it clear, “I am not blaming anybody. If the other film is working well, they would obviously not want to reduce their shows. Yeh unka haq hai. I am not blaming the multiplexes either, as they were justified in their stand. They will always support a big film or one that is excelling successfully.” When asked about the exact date for the re-release in January 2026, Rata...

Is Shah Rukh Khan joining Rajinikanth in Jailer 2? Details inside!

Veteran actor Mithun Chakraborty has set social media abuzz with remarks hinting that Shah Rukh Khan could appear alongside Rajinikanth in the upcoming Tamil film Jailer 2, slated for a June 2026 release. In a recent interview, Chakraborty not only confirmed parts of the star-studded cast but also described his own role in the film, a sequel to Rajinikanth’s 2023 blockbuster Jailer. While speaking with Siti Cinema, Chakraborty remarked that his next project was Jailer 2, “where everybody is against me.” He went on to list several prominent actors, saying, “Rajinikanth, Mohanlal, Shah Rukh Khan, Ramya Krishnan, Shiva Rajkumar, all their characters are against me.” If true, this would mark the first time Shah Rukh Khan and Rajinikanth share screen space in a theatrical film. Though both superstars appeared in the 2011 movie Ra.One — in which Rajinikanth’s character Chitti from Enthiran was featured — they never directly acted opposite each other. Fans have been eagerly awaiting an offi...
