Velvet Fever: Ranveer Singh, Ahaan Panday, Sidharth Malhotra, Vijay Deverakonda and Karan Tacker turn up the heat in three-piece suits

Velvet has long been associated with evening dressing, but the fabric is getting a fresh menswear update as Bollywoods leading men experiment with colour, tailoring and texture. From Ranveer Singhs classic black three-piece to Sidharth Malhotras striking teal suit, the latest celebrity looks show how the traditional silhouette can be styled with distinctly individual personalities. Heres a closer look at the velvet suits making a statement. Ranveer Singh Ranveer Singh brings his characteristic flair to classic black velvet. His three-piece suit retains the traditional structure of the silhouette while allowing the plush texture of velvet to take centre stage. The monochromatic palette keeps the look rooted in classic formalwear, while the actors styling adds his familiar sense of theatricality to an otherwise timeless combination. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ranveer Singh (@ranveersingh) Ahaan Panday Ahaan Panday opts for a dark maroon velvet three-piece that combines old-school formalwear references with a more contemporary sensibility. The deep hue gives the suit a rich finish, while the sharp tailoring keeps the overall look streamlined. The choice of maroon also allows the actor to move beyond the more predictable black and navy options associated with evening suits. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Anisha Jain (@theanisha) Sidharth Malhotra Sidharth Malhotra experiments with colour in a teal velvet three-piece suit. Sitting between blue and green, the shade gives the classic formal silhouette a more distinctive character without taking it too far away from traditional tailoring. The rich fabric further accentuates the colour, resulting in a look that balances classic structure with a contemporary palette. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Sidharth Malhotra (@sidmalhotra) Vijay Deverakonda Vijay Deverakonda goes back to the classic appeal of black velvet with a structured three-piece suit. The fabric adds depth to the monochromatic ensemble, while the clean silhouette keeps the overall styling polished. His look demonstrates how texture can add visual interest even when the colour palette remains deliberately understated. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Vijay Deverakonda (@thedeverakonda) Karan Tacker Karan Tacker takes a more dramatic approach with his velvet three-piece suit. The rich colour and sharply tailored silhouette make the ensemble stand out, while the traditional construction keeps the look firmly within formalwear territory. It is a take on velvet that relies on colour and tailoring rather than elaborate detailing to create impact. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Karan Tacker (@karantacker) Together, these looks highlight the versatility of velvet in contemporary menswear. Whether styled in classic black or richer shades of maroon, teal and red, the fabric is proving that the three-piece suit can move beyond conventional formal dressing while retaining its polished appeal.

Rise and Fall 2: Sara Gurpal injured during Workers task; clashes with Shehzad Poonawalla over biased verdict

The ongoing competition in Rise and Fall 2 took a tense turn during a high-intensity Workers task after Sara Gurpal suffered a forehead injury while attempting to secure a win for her team. Despite the injury, the contestant continued participating in the challenge, but the Workers eventual loss led to a heated confrontation between Sara and the Penthouse contestants. The task put the Workers under pressure as they were required to collect gunpowder under specific conditions. The quantity collected and the formations created during the challenge played a role in determining the final outcome. Sara participated aggressively, putting considerable effort into the task as she attempted to help her team. Her performance was also noticed by fellow contestants. Niharika and Gautam Gulati were among those seen acknowledging Saras commitment during the physically demanding challenge. However, the task also resulted in an injury for Sara. While wearing a helmet and racing against time to collect gunpowder, the protective gear reportedly caused friction on her forehead, peeling the skin and leaving her with a visible wound. Despite being in pain, Sara continued with the task instead of stepping away. She did not pause for medical intervention until the challenge had concluded, maintaining her focus on the task and her team. The Workers, however, were ultimately declared the losers. The decision did not go down well with Sara, who questioned the verdict and its evaluation of the effort put in by her team. Her disagreement soon led to a heated exchange with Shehzad Poonawalla, with Sara calling out what she considered a biased decision. As tensions escalated, Sara also expressed her disappointment with the Penthouse contestants over their assessment of the Workers performance. Questioning their lack of empathy despite witnessing the teams efforts throughout the task, she said, They saw the way we were playing the task, and yet they didnt show any mercy. The incident added another layer of tension to the ongoing dynamics between the Workers and Penthouse contestants, with the task highlighting the increasingly competitive atmosphere inside Rise and Fall 2.

3 Monkeys: Mustafa Burmawala drops the first look poster of the AbbasMustan thriller also starring Arjun Rampal

Mustafa Burmawala, who made his Bollywood debut with Machine alongside Kiara Advani, is set to return to the big screen with 3 Monkeys. Directed by filmmaker duo Abbas-Mustan, the upcoming thriller recently began its promotional campaign with the release of its first poster and teaser, offering a glimpse into the world of its central characters. Mustafa has been introduced as Akbar in the film, while Vishal Jethwa plays Amar and Tenzin Dalha portrays Anthony. Arjun Rampal is also part of the cast and will be seen as Sanjay. While the promotional material introduces the key characters, details about their motivations and the larger storyline have largely been kept under wraps. For Mustafa, the opportunity to work with Abbas-Mustan forms an important part of his association with the project. Speaking about 3 Monkeys, the actor said, Im really excited to be a part of 3 Monkeys, especially because it is an Abbas-Mustan film. They have created some of the most memorable thrillers, so getting an opportunity to work with them is very special for me. This film has a very interesting and different thriller story, and Im sure audiences are going to enjoy the twists and turns. Im really looking forward to seeing how viewers react to it. The teaser opens with the familiar imagery of the Three Wise Monkeys before introducing Amar, Akbar and Anthony as three masked men. The footage suggests that the characters are involved in a potentially dangerous situation, while also presenting moments that indicate a more playful side to the trio. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Mustafa Burmawala (@themustafab) The films central concept draws from the familiar philosophy of Bura Mat Dekho, Bura Mat Suno, Bura Mat Bolo, while giving it a contemporary interpretation through the line, Sab Dekho. Apni Suno. Bekhauf Bolo. Abbas and Mustan, speaking exclusively to us about the film, said, There is much more happening behind those masks, and that is the mystery we want audiences to discover in cinemas. At this stage, the makers have not disclosed the complete premise of 3 Monkeys. The promotional material leaves open questions about what Amar, Akbar and Anthony are involved in, with the possibility of a robbery, heist or a larger conflict remaining part of the mystery surrounding the film. 3 Monkeys is scheduled to release in cinemas worldwide on December 4, 2026.

Drishyam The Conclusion: JioHotstars Alok Jain says franchise has become an enduring IP: Audiences have truly made it their own

Drishyam The Conclusion has arrived in cinemas, bringing the story of Vijay Salgaonkar, played by Ajay Devgn, to its concluding chapter. Directed by Abhishek Pathak, the film brings back several members of the franchise cast, including Tabu, Shriya Saran, Rajat Kapoor and Kamlesh Sawant, while also featuring Jaideep Ahlawat and Prakash Raj. The release marks the latest chapter in a franchise that has continued to build on the world and characters established in the earlier films. Ahead of the release, the film also recorded significant pre-release ticket sales as audiences booked their seats for the conclusion of Vijay Salgaonkars story. Star Studio18, which has been associated with the franchise, has reflected on the evolution of Drishyam from an individual film into a continuing film property. Alok Jain, Head Hindi & English Entertainment (Streaming, TV & Studios), JioStar, spoke about the studios involvement in developing the franchise. At Star Studio18, we saw the potential of Drishyam from the very first film. We believed this was a story that could resonate strongly with Hindi audiences, and backed that belief with creative, marketing and distribution efforts to build it into a franchise. More than a decade and three films later, Drishyam has grown into one of the most loved franchises, and an enduring IP that audiences have truly made their own. Were incredibly proud to have been part of that journey and to see the world and its characters become so deeply embedded in popular culture. Jain also discussed the creative challenge of continuing a franchise that comes with an established audience and expectations. He said, With a successful franchise comes both an advantage and a responsibility. Audiences come in with familiarity and expectations, but you cannot simply recreate what worked before. With every Drishyam, our focus has been to give audiences something new, exciting and unpredictable, while staying true to the emotion and characters they have grown to love. The audience has always been at the centre of this franchise, and that has guided us through every chapter. Drishyam The Conclusion carries that same responsibility to deliver a fitting finale to a story and a world that audiences have made their own. Drishyam The Conclusion is directed by Abhishek Pathak and written by Abhishek Pathak, Aamil Keeyan Khan and Parveez Shaikh. The film stars Ajay Devgn, Tabu, Shriya Saran, Rajat Kapoor, Jaideep Ahlawat, Prakash Raj, Kamlesh Sawant, Ishita Dutta and Mrunal Jadhav, among others. Presented by Star Studio18 and produced by Panorama Studios, the film is produced by Alok Jain, Ajit Andhare, Kumar Mangat Pathak and Abhishek Pathak.

EXCLUSIVE: They started FACTORIES of TV shows, says Raghubir Yadav as he recalls how TV scenario worsened after the golden Doordarshan era

For people of todays generation, veteran actor Raghubir Yadav is known as Pradhan ji from the long-running web show Panchayat. Recently, he played a character completely opposite of that in Hunkkaar The Roar. But the actors biggest and first claim to fame was the 1989 Doordarshan TV show Mungerilal Ke Haseen Sapne, directed by Prakash Jha. In an exclusive chat with Bollywood Hungama, when this writer told him that his first memory of him is Mungerilal Ke Haseen Sapne as a kid, Yadav jokingly said, Aap bade ho gaye lekin main abhi bhi chhota hi hoon (laughs). On a more serious note, he said, Back then, I had just passed from NSD (National School of Drama). I then went to the Repertory Company. After leaving from there, I did Massey Sahib (1986), which was my first film. Then I got this serial (Mungerilal Ke Haseen Sapne). I realized that there was a lot to do for an actor while playing this character. So, I accepted it. Recalling the work culture of the old Doordarshan days, Yadav said, Everyone was working sincerely on the show. I enjoy working sincerely and this is also my weakness. In those days, there was a lot of hard work put in in every department. There were only 26 episodes of Mungerilal but people still remember the show. The reason for this is that everyone used to work unitedly as a team. Director, writer and others used to work together. There wasnt an atmosphere of business back then. Yadav pointed out that the situation worsened later on when daily soaps came into the picture. Later, a lot of channels came in, he said. People started factories of TV shows. The whole situation started worsening. They started factories and started selling products. There was no proper culture. I have seen all of that.

I didnt think about reaching any goal because once you achieve it, its the end for you. I just felt like learning and having fun with it.
