Arjun Rampal starrer Billionaire sparks speculation: Is he playing Vijay Mallya or Lalit Modi in Hansal Mehta’s next?

Following the success of Dhurandhar and Dhurandhar The Revenge, Arjun Rampal is gearing up for his next major project, an upcoming OTT series titled Billionaire. Helmed by acclaimed filmmaker Hansal Mehta, the show has already generated significant curiosity, particularly around the character Rampal is set to portray. Positioned as an intense and layered story about a powerful business tycoon, Billionaire is expected to explore themes of ambition, influence, and the price of success. While the makers have remained tight-lipped about specific plot details, the premise alone has sparked widespread speculation about whether the narrative draws inspiration from real-life figures. Among the names frequently being discussed is that of Vijay Mallya. Known for his flamboyant lifestyle and once being dubbed the “King of Good Times,” Mallya’s rise in the business world and subsequent controversies make his story a compelling reference point for a screen adaptation.

Namit Malhotra is turning out to be a brave producer, as he has gone all out to bring the epic tale of history Ramayana, to the big screen. The teaser dropped a day back, and it reflects the grandeur of the film with Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram. With a production budget of Rs. 4000 crores for the two films combined, the stakes are at an all-time high, and yet Namit is backing his vision with the utmost conviction. Instead of derisking the film by selling digital, satellite and music rights, Namit is holding it all close to his chest. "Namit received an offer of Rs. 700 crores for both the films put together, which is the highest ever by a margin for an Indian Film. But he took no time to reject the offer. Given the mammoth cost of Rs. 4000 crore, Namit and his team feel that Ramayana deserves more as it's a legacy film that will speak to generations ahead. He is expecting Rs. 1000 crore deal from OTT players, leaving Rs. 3000 crores to be recovered from other sources, including...

After Shah Rukh Khan, Ajay Devgn drives home the Rs 1.40 crore Mercedes-Benz V-Class on his 57th birthday

Move over, Shah Rukh Khan. Well, almost. The Mercedes-Benz V-Class has only been on Indian roads since late March 2026, and it has already become the must-have luxury MPV for India's biggest celebrities. First, it was cricketer Hardik Pandya who snapped one up for his girlfriend Mahieka Sharma. Then Shah Rukh Khan drove home an Obsidian Black example that was spotted outside his temporary residence Puja Casa. And now, completing a hat-trick of high-profile acquisitions, Ajay Devgn has become the latest and arguably most perfectly timed celebrity to add the Rs 1.40 crore Mercedes-Benz V-Class to his garage. The occasion? His own 57th birthday on April 2. Because some men send themselves flowers, and some men send themselves a rolling German palace. The timing could not be more fitting. On the morning of April 2, thousands of fans had already assembled outside Devgn's Juhu residence, Shivshakti, holding banners and chanting his name in scenes that made the bungalow look more lik...

Project Hail Mary vs Dhurandhar The Revenge Round 2: Tussle begins over IMAX show sharing for next week; The Super Mario Galaxy Movie also joins the fray

Bollywood Hungama has been at the forefront in informing readers about the struggles faced by Sony Pictures in getting sufficient IMAX screens and shows for their IMAX film, Project Hail Mary. On the day of its release, March 26, the Hollywood film was able to secure shows in only 6 out of 34 IMAX screens in India. Thanks to the impact of the Bollywood Hungama story, relentless efforts by the Sony Pictures team and sustained pressure from the fans, the exhibitors finally relented. From March 27, all the theatres of IMAX started playing Project Hail Mary. The demand was such that Eros Cinema even played a show at 3:45 am on Saturday, March 28 and Sunday, March 29. If fans feel that the IMAX woes of Project Hail Mary were over last weekend, they are mistaken. Bollywood Hungama has learned that the studio is now once again negotiating to get IMAX shows from tomorrow, that is, Friday, April 3, when the film enters the second week. A source told us, “The distributors of both Project Hail M...
