There has been a lot of reporting, false as it turns out be, regarding the accident at the Bachchans’ Diwali party where Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s publicist was injured when her inflammable clothes caught fire.
According to reports that were widely circulated on the day after Diwali, Aishwarya’s publicist was rescued from a catastrophic accident by none other than Shah Rukh Khan who rushed to the lady’s rescue and doused the fire.
However a very prominent guest at the Bachchan bash who was a first-hand witness to what transpired says Shah Rukh was nowhere in the picture. “Archana Sadanand (Aishwarya’s publicist) was walking down the stairs when her dupatta caught fire in a deeya. In no time at all her clothes were aflame. Everyone was too stunned to do anything. It was Aishwarya who rushed and tore away the burning portion of Archana’s dupatta,” says the eyewitness.
We wonder where Shah Rukh Khan came into the picture, and who decided to make him the hero of the story. Incidentally Archana Sadanand is still in the hospital recovering from her burn injuries. Luckily her face did not get singed.

After the massive success of the popular track ‘Teri Mitti’ earlier this year from Akshay Kumar's historical epic Kesari, the actor collaborates with Punjabi singer B Praak yet again for his first-ever music video. The song titled ‘Fillhal’ is written by lyricist Jaani.
Talking about this collaboration, Akshay says, “Having experienced the magic of B Praak’s voice firsthand with ‘Teri Mitti’ from my film Kesari, there was not much needed to convince me to come onboard for ‘Fillhal’. And to top it off the lyrics are so beautiful, it’s impossible to not feel anything. When I met with the lyricist, Jaani he told me it’s his best-written song till date and I couldn’t agree more. This brilliant combination of a soulful voice and lyrics to match got me to make my music video debut.”

Dinesh Vijan has given some amazing films to the industry in the past few years including Badlapur, Hindi Medium, and Stree. With Ayushmann Khurrana starrer Bala releasing on November 7, Dinesh Vijan has decided to open up about being charged with plagiarism by the makers of Ujda Chaman. With both the films revolving around a similar concept, there initially was a tough fight regarding the release dates of the film until the makers of Bala decided to stick to their previously planned release dates.
Even though the charges were later dropped, he chose to remain silent over the issue. In an interview with a leading tabloid, he opened up about the accusations saying that with only three weeks left for the film, at that point he just wanted to go through with his film without any issues. He also said that when the film releases, the audience will see why Bala is an original concept.
Speaking further about Sara Ali Khan and Kartik Aaryan for Love Aaj Kal sequel, tentatively titled as Aaj Kal, Dinesh revealed he had no clue about the two dating each other and since they’re strong actors, he has no issues about the film promotions faltering. Calling director Imtiaz Ali the master of heartbreaks, he feels releasing the film on Valentine’s Day next year is the right thing to do and is quite confident about the project.
Do you think Kartik Aaryan and Sara Ali Khan’s split might affect the film’s post-production? Be sure to let us know in the comments.

After completing close to a year with Zero’s release, Shah Rukh Khan has still not confirmed his next project. However, there are reports doing rounds that suggest that he will soon be collaborating with the South director, Atlee Kumar. While his fans were awaiting an official announcement on his birthday, November 2, there have been no confirmations from the superstar’s end.
His next is widely speculated to be titled Sanki, however, producer Sajid Nadiadwala has already registered the name with the Film Producers Guild Of India a while ago. Salman Khan had suggested Sanki as the title for his film Kick; however, the makers decided to stick with the latter since it’s the remake of a namesake Telugu movie. A source close to the producer said that Sajid Nadiadwala has the copyright to the title and the script for the same is ready. If any other producer or filmmaker wishes to use the title, they will have to get an NOC from Sajid and it is also said that three other producers are already lining up for the title.
The official announcement for Sanki will be made post-Christmas this year.
