After actresses like Kiara Advani, Aneet Padda and Janhvi Kapoor were linked to the role, Sara Arjun is reportedly set to take on one of the toughest roles of her career. Following her acclaimed performances in Dhurandhar and Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge, the 20-year-old actress is said to be stepping into the shoes of legendary Bollywood star Madhubala. The upcoming film will be directed by Jasmeet K Reen and produced by Sanjay Leela Bhansali.

Currently in pre-production, the project aims to recreate the golden era of Hindi cinema while celebrating Madhubala’s iconic life and career. Shooting is expected to begin later this year.

Sara Arjun’s Preparation for the Iconic Role

As per a source quoted by Pinkvilla, Sara will go through a major transformation to capture Madhubala’s charm and grace. An insider said, “From costume detailing to dialect training and look tests, the makers are leaving no stone unturned in recreating the era with precision.”

Darlings director Jasmeet K Reen wants to explore both the successes and struggles of Madhubala’s life. While the story details are kept under wraps, the film is expected to highlight her beauty, talent, and personal challenges, offering a cinematic tribute to her legacy.

Sara’s casting has already sparked discussions online. Reddit users shared mixed reactions. One wrote, “Doesn’t look like Madhubala. Too young and short. + She just doesn’t have that Madhubala vibe. Anyway, good luck to her if true.” 

Another said, “Happy Aneet is not doing this because there would have been next-level comparison and trolls hate, and I feel sorry for whoever is doing it.”

A user joked, “Just hope Bhansali’s mental hospital doesn’t affect the girl under the name of perfectionism.”

About Dhurandhar 2 Actress

Sara Arjun, now 20, began her career as a prolific child artist, appearing in over 100 commercials and films such as Deiva Thirumagal (2011) and Ponniyin Selvan (2022).

The silence of Deepika Padukone on Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge has sparked a lot of discussion online. Despite the film breaking records at the box office, the actress hasn’t publicly praised her husband Ranveer Singh, raising questions among fans. The debate has now intensified as German actor Suzanne Bernert shared her opinion on social media.

Bernert (who has been living in India for years) tweeted on Thursday, “Dear Deepika. This isn’t a flex! We are still waiting for you to openly praise your husband. I don’t understand why you are not doing it. (sic).”

Check out her post below

Netizens React To Suzanne Bernert’s Comment On Deepika Padukone

Fans shared mixed reactions to Bernert’s tweet. Some agreed with her, while others defended Deepika. One user wrote, “Thanks for calling her out. Watching a movie in advance due to access is NOT the same thing as public support for your spouse, especially when a large section of the industry was out to ruin his career/image. He has always supported and appreciated her publicly.”

Another commented, “Bhai tu apna kaam kar na! Use rehne de uski zindagi mein (sic).”

A third added, “Why are you waiting for a wife to openly praise her husband for you? She probably praised him in private with all the goodies.”

One more said, “She is the part of Pathaan and this movie has just destroyed those kinds of spy thrillers, so how can she praise and shoot on her own feet?”

Deepika’s Silence And Dhurandhar 2’s Box Office Success

For weeks, Deepika Padukone has faced criticism for not publicly acknowledging Ranveer Singh’s achievement. She skipped the film’s premiere to attend a sitar concert with her in-laws, which led to speculation about a possible “snub.” Deepika later clarified she had watched the film before its public release, but she didn’t explain why she didn’t post about it on social media.

Meanwhile, Dhurandhar 2: The Revenge continues to dominate theatres. The film, directed by Aditya Dhar, became the first Bollywood movie to cross Rs 1,000 crore net collection in India. Globally, it has earned over Rs 1,650 crore in under three weeks, surpassing the domestic lifetime collection of Baahubali 2: The Conclusion.

The film features Ranveer Singh, Sara Arjun, Arjun Rampal, R Madhavan, Akshaye Khanna, Rakesh Bedi and Sanjay Dutt. Its success has made it one of the biggest blockbusters of all time.

Yo Yo Honey Singh Mumbai Concert - Viral Girl Roohi speaks up

The recent Yo Yo Honey Singh concert in Mumbai has taken an unexpected turn online. A viral video showing a female fan trying to climb over a gate sparked debates about consent and privacy, and now the woman herself has come forward to share her side of the story.

The incident happened on March 28 at the MMRDA Grounds during Honey Singh’s “My Story – India Chapter” concert. A large crowd had gathered for the event, and while many videos showed fans enjoying the concert, one clip quickly caught attention. It showed a young woman trying to climb over a locked gate after reportedly being denied entry despite having a valid ticket.

Viral Girl Speaks After Yo Yo Honey Singh Concert Chaos

The woman, identified as Roohi, later shared a video on Instagram explaining what happened. She started by apologising for her behaviour and said it happened in the heat of the moment.

Roohi revealed that she had been waiting outside for around 40–50 minutes. She also said that she suffers from anxiety and claustrophobia, which made it difficult for her to stay in a crowded space.

Explaining why she climbed the gate, she said, “I climbed, thinking that being a girl, if I climbed up, they would open the gates, and actually they did. After two minutes, they opened the gate for all of us.”

Roohi admitted that her actions were wrong. However, she said the bigger issue was what happened after the video went viral online.

She said, “The video was recorded. It was circulated all over the internet, where my private body was unintentionally exposed without my consent. And that is a crime.”

She also shared that she tried to report the issue to Instagram and cybercrime authorities before posting her video, but no strict action was taken. Speaking about how it affected her, she added, “And I honestly feel this must have happened to so many of us, wherein some sort of content is posted online, which we do not want, but there is no such way to take it down unless you know you are a powerful man. I felt helpless in this situation. Seeing the hate in the comments was really overwhelming for me. It was honestly heartbreaking because I’ve never been in that situation.”

Girl Talks About Honey Singh’s Reaction, Calls For Action

Amid the controversy, Yo Yo Honey Singh had earlier shared the viral clip on his Instagram Stories and called her a “Sherni”. Reacting to this, Roohi said, “When Honey Singh himself posted the story saying, Sherni fan of mine, I felt a little relieved that, okay, there are people looking at it in a decent way who are actually supporting me. Most of all, my own family supported me to make this video, that you should go out there and tell people the right story. And I’m grateful for that.”

She also used this moment to raise awareness about online consent. Roohi urged authorities and social media platforms to take stricter action against such content.

She said, “It should be taken strictly, is what my request is to all the authorities, Instagram, or any social platform for that matter. They should make strict rules that if a content is being posted online, which is against the violation, which is against somebody’s rights, it should be removed with immediate effect. Thank you (sic).”

The situation reportedly began when organisers shut the gates due to overcrowding, leaving many ticket holders waiting outside.

Google

CM Yogi Adityanath: Uttar Pradesh continues to shine as India’s agricultural powerhouse, contributing a remarkable 21% of the country’s total food grain production. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath attributes this achievement to the adoption of modern farming techniques, state-led reforms, and strong support for farmers. These measures have not only boosted productivity but also improved the livelihood of millions of farmers across the state.

Modern Farming Techniques at Work

Under CM Yogi Adityanath’s leadership, farmers in UP have been encouraged to adopt modern irrigation methods, high-yield seed varieties, and mechanized farming equipment. These innovations have increased efficiency and reduced dependency on traditional, time-consuming methods. Farmers now also have better access to digital tools for crop planning, pest control, and market prices, making agriculture more profitable and sustainable.

Many express that modern techniques and government support have reduced their struggles, especially during challenging weather conditions.

In the clip, a teacher can be seen enjoying a casual telephonic conversation while the students in the classroom struggle with sweltering heat, some even using hand fans to stay comfortable. 

What Happened in the Video?

In the video, the classroom is visibly hot and stuffy. While students are fanning themselves with whatever they have  some with small hand fans, others with notebooks the teacher seems completely unaware of their discomfort. Instead of addressing the students or showing concern, the teacher is engrossed in a phone call, smiling and laughing as if nothing else matters. Netizens say this raises serious questions about the teaching standards and accountability in government schools. 

Students’ Struggle Amid Heat

The MP Viral Video clearly shows the students trying their best to stay focused despite the heat. Some were waving their hand fans vigorously, while others seemed distracted and uncomfortable.

People Reactions 

The video sparked widespread outrage on social media, with people expressing shock and disappointment over the teacher’s negligence.

Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge Box Office Collection Day 21: Ranveer Singh’s Film Loses Steam, Crashes To Single Digit Much Before Bhooth Bangla Release

Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge Box Office Collection Day 21: Ranveer Singh and Aditya Dhar‘s Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge is finally slowing down at the box office after a record-breaking run. The film ruled theatres for almost three weeks, but now the numbers are clearly dropping. On Day 21, it entered single-digit earnings for the first time, showing that the peak phase may be over.

Interestingly, Bhooth Bangla, starring Akshay Kumar, was earlier delayed because of the strong run of Dhurandhar The Revenge. However, the latest trend shows that the film has already started losing steam much before the new release arrives.

Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge Box Office Collection Day 21

On its third Wednesday, Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge collected around Rs 7.90 crore in India. This is the lowest daily collection for the film so far and its first single-digit number since release.

The fall is clear when compared to Day 20, when the film earned about Rs 10.10 crore. This shows that weekday footfall is now going down as the film enters its third week.

Even with this drop, the total collection is huge. The film has crossed around Rs 1,041 crore in India. Worldwide, it has gone beyond Rs 1,600 crore, making it one of the biggest Indian films ever.

Directed by Aditya Dhar, the film has already beaten the lifetime collection of Baahubali 2: The Conclusion in India. Its next target is Pushpa, starring Allu Arjun. If it crosses that, it could become the biggest Indian film of all time.

Why Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge Is Losing Momentum

Trade experts say this drop is normal. Most big films slow down in the third week, especially after a huge opening.

One major reason is audience saturation. Many people have already watched the film, so repeat viewership is going down. At the same time, the ongoing IPL season is also affecting theatre footfall.

Also, the film had no major competition for weeks. Now, as time passes, it is getting harder to maintain double-digit collections.

Can Dhurandhar The Revenge Hold Before Bhooth Bangla?

There is still more than a week left before Bhooth Bangla releases on April 17 (with previews on April 16). But looking at the current trend, it may be difficult for Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge to stay strong.

If the drop continues, the film could face pressure even before new releases arrive. Once fresh films hit theatres, screen count and audience share will reduce further.

Still, the film’s success remains massive. This slowdown does not change the fact that Dhurandhar The Revenge has had a historic run. It simply shows that the film is now entering its final stage in theatres.

About The Sequel

Dhurandhar 2 The Revenge follows RAW agent Jaskirat Singh Rangi, played by Ranveer Singh. He works undercover as Hamza Ali Mazari and enters terror networks in Pakistan while dealing with political and criminal challenges.

The film also stars Arjun Rampal, Sanjay Dutt, R Madhavan and Sara Arjun, with a cameo by Yami Gautam.

Released on March 19, 2026, the film is expected to arrive on OTT soon, likely after the IPL season ends.

Can Ranbir Kapoor Truly Embody Lord Ram In Namit Malhotra’s Ramayana? Ramanand Sagar’s Son Says ‘He Must Have…’

Can Ranbir Kapoor Truly Embody Lord Ram In Namit Malhotra’s Ramayana

The first look of Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram in the Ramayana teaser has sparked a strong debate online. The teaser was released on April 2. It quickly went viral and gathered millions of views. While some fans praised his calm and regal appearance, others were not convinced and called the casting questionable.

Now, Moti Sagar, son of legendary filmmaker Ramanand Sagar, has shared his thoughts.

Moti Sagar Reacts To Ranbir Kapoor Playing Lord Ram In Ramayana

Speaking about the teaser, Moti Sagar showed confidence in Ranbir Kapoor’s acting ability. However, he also made it clear that judging the performance based on a short teaser is not fair.

He said, “He (Ranbir) is such a class actor and brings so much depth to his roles. But you cannot judge anything from just the teaser. The actor has got so much depth in his performance. He must have gone very deep into this character. So, I would like to see the whole film and then comment. I’m expecting something very good from this film.”

Moti Sagar also addressed the comparisons between the upcoming film and the iconic television series Ramayan. He explained why such comparisons may not be accurate.

He added, “People often overlook that our Ramayan spanned 78 episodes of 30–40 minutes each, while the film will run for just three to four hours. So, there will be a lot of differences, as we could go into a lot of detail in a show.”

Ramayana Vs Ramanand Sagar’s Ramayan Debate

The original Ramayan, created by Ramanand Sagar, aired between 1987 and 1988 and became a cultural phenomenon. It featured Arun Govil as Lord Ram, Dipika Chikhlia as Sita, Sunil Lahri as Lakshman and Arvind Trivedi as Ravana. Even today, the show is remembered as one of the most iconic Indian television series.

Because of this legacy, comparisons with the new film were inevitable. However, Moti Sagar believes both formats are very different and should not be judged in the same way.

Meanwhile, the teaser of Ramayana, directed by Nitesh Tiwari and produced by Namit Malhotra, has received mixed reactions. While some viewers liked the scale and casting, many criticised the visual effects.

Several netizens pointed out that the VFX looked “game-like” and did not match the expectations of a big-budget epic. Some also felt that the overall tone of the teaser lacked emotional depth and did not deliver the powerful impact expected from such a revered story.
