With her contemporaries Sharmila Tagore, Jaya Bachchan, and husband Dharmendra reclaiming the screen, veteran actor Hema Malini says she would also like to do movies, provided producers come to her with “some nice roles”. Malini’s most recent appearance in a film was Shimla Mirchi, which released in 2020. In the 2000s, she featured in hit films such as Baghban, Veer-Zaara, Baabul, and Bbuddah… Hoga Terra Baap, all starring Amitabh Bachchan. A two-time MP from Mathura, Malini has been away from the movies for quite some time. “I would like to do it [films]. If I get some nice roles, sure, definitely, why not? I would like all the producers to come forward and sign me. I am there,” the 74-year-old said when asked whether she was willing to take up more acting roles. October marks 20 years since the release of Baghban. Directed by Ravi Chopra, the family drama revolved around an elderly couple, played by Malini and Bachchan, who are forced to live separately when their sons refuse to take care of both their parents. Recalling working with Bachchan on the 2003 movie, Malini said she wishes they had done more work together, after Baghban. The duo also starred opposite each other in 1980s films like Satte Pe Satta, Naseeb, and Nastik.

What’s in a jersey?

What’s in a jersey?

The Delhi High Court has issued a directive to the filmmakers of the movie, Jailer, to ensure that from September 1, none of the theatres exhibit the jersey of 
the IPL team, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), as worn by a contract killer in one of the scenes in the film. Justice Prathiba M Singh, who was hearing a suit filed by the IPL team against the filmmakers for using the team’s jersey in a derogatory manner, said that the Rajnikanth starrer’s release on television, satellite, or any OTT (Over-The-Top) platform shall have an altered version of the film, prior to its release. It is alleged that the contract killer in the film wearing the jersey reportedly makes derogatory and misogynistic statements about a woman. The IPL team argued that the negative depiction using their jersey without permission could damage their brand image, and equity.
