Bombay High Court dismisses anticipatory bail plea of Remo D’Souza in alleged case of cheating

A couple of days back, a non bailable warrant was issued by a Ghaziabad Court against director-choreographer Remo D'Souza, in an alleged case of fraud. Following this, Remo filed a pre-arrest bail plea at the Mumbai High Court, so that he could approach the Ghaziabad court and seek cancellation of the warrant. The Bombay High Court, however, had dismissed Remo's anticipatory bail plea stating that the warrant was yet to reach the Mumbai police.

Businessman Satyendra Tyagi allegedly lent Rs 5 crore to Remo, who borrowed the money to produce an upcoming film of his and promised to return him double the amount once the film released. The film in question was called Death of Amar, a thriller that starred Rajeev Khandelwal and Zareen Khan. However, Tyagi claimed that he never received his money. In 2016, he filed a case at the Sihani Gate police station in Ghaziabad. After Remo failed to appear before the court, the warrant was sent out by additional chief judicial magistrate Mahendra Rawat.

The Bombay High Court, while dismissing Remo's anticipatory bail plea, also stated that no action was being taken against him right now since the warrant was yet to reach the Mumbai Police.

Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai: Randeep Hooda to play the antagonist in Salman Khan’s film?

We earlier saw Salman Khan and Randeep Hooda working together in the former's film Sultan. While Salman played a wrestler in the film, Randeep was seen essaying the role of his coach. A couple of years later, we hear that the two are reuniting for Salman's forthcoming film Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai.

Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai: Randeep Hooda to play the antagonist in Salman Khan's film?

If reports are to be believed, then Randeep was approached to play the antagonist, and liked the role immediately. One also hears that the actor's character is something he has never played before. If things go as planned, he might start shooting for his part before the year ends. Meanwhile, he is also a part of Imtiaz Ali's yet untitled film starring Kartik Aaryan and Sara Ali Khan in lead roles.

Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai will also reunite Salman with director Prabhudheva, after Wanted and the upcoming Dabangg 3. The action drama is going to be Salman's Eid special release in 2020. Reportedly, After Bharat, Disha Patani is once again joining Salman for this one too! However, contrary to what many think, this one is not a sequel to Wanted.

“Radhe was my character’s name in Tere Naam and again, we used the same name for my character in Wanted But this (Radhe) is a completely different film. It has nothing to do with Wanted. If you want to go into that format or genre, then this will be a baap of Wanted,” Salman earlier said, at the trailer launch of Dabangg 3.

Dia Mirza calls out BCCI for hosting India – Bangladesh match amidst deteriorating air quality in Delhi

Actress Dia Mirza is a strong advocate of protecting the environment and speaks her heart out about things that cause harm to it. After the festival of Diwali, Delhi saw a major dip in the air quality as the city was choking under the stubble burning from neighboring states and blatant flouting of Supreme Court norms on bursting of crackers from 8 to 10 pm on Diwali.

Dia Mirza calls out BCCI for hosting India - Bangladesh match amidst deteriorating air quality in Delhi

On Thursday, Dia Mirza took to Twitter to express her dismay at the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI)'s decision to host the India-Bangladesh T20 match on November 3 in Delhi despite severs to extreme pollution levels.

She wrote on Twitter: “It is baffling that the @BCCI has decided to go ahead with the T20 match despite the AQI’s severe 412! This complete denial of the hazards of exposing ourselves to pollution is what cripples our ability to seek and implement swift solutions. #MyRightToBreathe #BreatheLife.”

Dia posted another generic tweet on pollution and right to breathe. She wrote: “And it was baffling last year, and the year before that. Come on #India! Let’s work on acceptance and follow it with conclusive action. We have to shed this attitude of denial. The fundamental #RightToLife starts with our BREATH. #CleanAir #BeatAirPollution #MRTB #BreatheLife” Incidentally, in 2017, Dia was appointed as UN Environment’s Goodwill Ambassador for India and she often speaks passionately on such issues.

After the Diwali celebrations, the air quality in Delhi dropped to the 'emergency' category. On Friday morning, the blanket of haze over Delhi thickened with the national capital's pollution levels increasing overnight by around 50 points taking the overall air quality index to 459.

EXCLUSIVE: Will Hrithik Roshan opt out of Farah Khan and Rohit Shetty’s SEVEN?

This news is hot as it's a very recent development! This movie has been considered to be one of the most controversial movies of recent times. While it seemed to be smooth sailing for Rohit Shetty and Farah Khan’s next movie, starring Hrithik Roshan, it seems that it has run into a roadblock. Buzz is that the star hasn’t liked the first draft of the movie and asked for a fresh version, after which he will decide.

EXCLUSIVE Will Hrithik Roshan opt out of Farah Khan and Rohit Shetty’s SEVEN

A trade source says, “An announcement on the movie (tentatively titled Seven) was to appear this week with Hrithik Roshan as the lead. Apparently, the team along with Farah and her writers went to give a narration to Hrithik last week but he didn’t like it. He told the team to re-write some parts again and return with a fresh narrative. Earlier, it had been reported that Rohit and Farah were keen to make the remake of the 1982 Satte Pe Satta, directed by Romu N Sippy but the deal with Rajesh Vasani (who owned the remake rights), fell through. There were two hitches which came with that – Rohit, Farah and the team could not use the title Satte Pe Satta and the character of Babu, which has been created by original writers of Satte Pe Satta, Satish Bhatnagar, Kader Khan and Jyoti Swaroop.”

Apparently, the lack of a double role was something that created an issue with Hrithik Roshan. “In Satte Pe Satta, the double role of Amitabh Bachchan as Ravi Anand (played by Bachchan), the good elder brother was balanced by the darker and pivotal character of Babu (again played by Bachchan), and who was also the antagonist. That would be an exciting character for anybody, including an actor like Hrithik to play and with that missing, something was lacking in the script. The makers were in talks with an international entertainment company for the official remake rights of the Hollywood musical Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (1954). The first draft didn’t have anything to do with Romu N Sippy’s Satte Pe Satta, as was the original plan. So now, Hrithik has told Farah and the team to re-write certain portions to make his character more exciting. Once they come back for another draft, will he decide whether he wants to do it or not.”

Earlier Vasani had told Bollywood Hungama, “Anyone can always make the original movie Seven Brides For Seven Brothers, But, Seven Brides For Seven Brothers doesn’t have the second character of Babu (Amitabh Bachchan) as there was no double role in that film, so they can't make it a double role in Rohit and Farah's movie. No one can use the title Satte Pe Satta as it is registered with the producer's association under my name."

Satte Pe Satta revolves around seven unkempt and uncouth brothers (orphans), living on a farmhouse, led by their oldest brother Ravi Anand (Amitabh Bachchan), who are taught manners and etiquette by a nurse Indu (Hema Malini). But everything becomes chaotic when Ravi’s lookalike and impersonator, Babu, turns up. He kidnaps Ravi as part of a plan by somebody (with evil intentions), who has hired him. Apart from Amitabh Bachchan and Hema Malini, Satte Pe Satta (1982) featured Sachin, Shakti Kapoor, Paintal, Sudhir, Inderjeet and Vikram Sahu as the rest of the six Anand brothers and Amjad Khan, Ranjeeta Kaur, Sarika, Kanwaljit Singh, Prema Narayan, Mac Mohan and Kalpana Iyer in other roles.

Commando 3 celebrates the bravado of the people of our Nation

Echoing the patriotic sentiment that all Indians universally share in their core, Vipul Amrutlal Shah’s Commando 3, directed by Aditya Datt evoked profound emotions and gave out a beautiful message of unity when the trailer was released recently.

Commando 3 celebrates the bravado of the people of our Nation

While the movie highlights the story of a Commando who is fighting for the nation under attack there has been so many heroes who have been Commandos themselves when the need of the hour was dire. The great leaders like Bhagat Singh, A.P.J Abdul Kalam, Ashfaqulla Khan, Maluana Abul Kalam Azad, and many more have been great Commandos who have fought for the nation in their capacity to bring about revolutionary changes.

The Glorious Mary Kom, recently made history as she became the first boxer to win eight world championship medal. The Commando in her never stops to make the nation proud, despite the numerous obstacles she has faced! MS Dhoni took a 2 months sabbatical from international cricket duties to fulfil his long-standing dream of performing the duties for his battalion. The list is endless as there are so many unsung heroes who are inspiring us every day!

Vipul Shah adds, "Our movie, Commando 3 has a strong story line. More than an action-thriller it's a human story. With the movie we want to convey that we all are one and there is a commando in each one of us. The way our nation comes together to help each other out during crisis is commendable. May that be giving someone a shelter during rains or Virat Kohli who is fighting on the cricket field. Commando 3 is our tribute to the commando that resides in each one of us." Director Aditya Datt shares, "United we stand is the point we want to drive home with our movie because at a humane level our emotions are similar. Commando 3 is celebrating the bravado of the people of our Nation."

Commando 3 stars Vidyut Jammwal, Adah Sharma, Angira Dhar and Gulshan Devaiah in lead roles. Presented by Reliance Entertainment & Motion Picture Capital in association with Sun Shine Pictures and Vipul Amrutlal Shah Production Commando 3 is slated for release on November 29.

Amitabh Bachchan cancels event in Dubai due to ill health

India’s most iconic star-actor Amitabh Bachchan has been feeling a little under the weather lately. He was in hospital for a complete health check-up. And though he has been served an all-clear by the medical experts, the mega-star has decided to take it easy for a while.

Amitabh Bachchan cancels event in Dubai due to ill health

Keeping this in mind, Mr Bachchan cancelled his appearance at the Sharjah International Book Fair on Wednesday, October 30. A big blow to his fans in the Middle East, many of whom had flown into the Book Fair from distant cities just to see the iconic star speak.

A source close to Big B says, “The cancellation can’t be helped. He has been working really hard in the past few years in spite of doctors’ warnings. He has now been given a final warning about his health. If he continues to push himself he may have a serious health lapse. He is now in the mood to relax for a while.”
