Have you heard? Buddy comedy for Tamannaah

Tamannaah Bhatia

Tamannaah Bhatia’s upcoming romantic comedy, Jee Karda, is set to stream on a web platform from June 15. The show follows seven friends who grow up with the belief that they would be thriving by the time they are 30 years of age, only to realise that their lives are, in fact, a mess. It also stars Ashima Gulati, Sohail Nayyar, Samvedna Suwalka, and Simone Singh, among others. Dinesh Vijan’s eight-part series is touted as a take on “the unbreakable bond of friendship that often carries us through the vicissitudes of daily life”. “The plot and characters are crafted to have a wide appeal across all types of viewers,” said Vijan. The music has been composed by Sachin-Jigar.

On Mani Ratnam’s 67th birthday, actor-politician Kamal Haasan penned a note to the filmmaker, whom he called the “doyen of Indian cinema who has touched the hearts of millions”. Haasan, who lent his voice to Ratnam’s Ponniyin Selvan 2, took to Twitter to share, “If one were to count life by the happiness that they create around them, and if age is calculated by the friends around you, my dear Mani Ratnam, you are going to be a much older man today. A doyen of Indian cinema, who has touched the hearts of millions through his art, and one who transformed dialogues into a lovely visual experience. You have constantly pushed the boundaries of cinema, unmindful of the scale of challenge, by constantly learning. Today you are a master, inspiring the next generation of filmmakers through whom your legacy shall reverberate perpetually.”

Veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah shared that he didn’t find his cult classic black comedy Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro funny, while he was filming it. Talking about why a sequel to the film would be doomed, he said,  “That was a time I believed deeply in the method, believability and logic. I found many situations in the film ludicrous, and didn’t find anything funny while shooting that film. And maybe that’s why it is funny because none of us were laughing at ourselves while performing it. I realised I was mistaken and I was being unreasonable. I should have tried to get on director Kundan Shah’s wavelength instead of trying to get the film on mine.” Shah said he began to get “more interesting parts” after the age of 50 than when he was young. “I’ve received challenging parts in the second phase of my career. If I feel, I’m gonna have fun doing this, I do it.”

Sairat filmmaker Nagraj Manjule has swapped the director’s chair to play a righteous cop in the Marathi film, Ghar Banduk Biryani, an experience that, he says, he enjoyed to the fullest. Manjule has often done cameos in his movies, but, it was at director Hemant Jangal Awtade’s behest that he agreed to play a full-fledged role for the first time. “I generally take up small roles in my movies. I like to act, but I love to direct more, and, I feel, I can do better as a director. I am not sure how I am as an actor. This was the first time that I played the role of a cop,” Manjule said about the project that also stars Sayaji Shinde and Akash Thosar. Thosar was the leading man of Manjule’s Sairat. “I would often doubt myself, but the team would convince me. I also loved collaborating with Sayaji Shinde ji. He is one of the finest actors in India. I gained some confidence by working with these actors,” he added.
