Prime Video has unveiled the trailer of its upcoming Original movie Dont Be Shy, a young adult romantic comedy centred on friendship, first love, heartbreak and the complications of navigating life in the early years of adulthood. The film features newcomers Aarushi Bajaj, Piyush Khati, Bianca Arora and Ansh Duggal in the lead roles, alongside Kunaal Roy Kapur, Anurag Basu, Neha Dhupia and Anju Alva Naik in pivotal parts. The trailer introduces Shyamili Shy Das, played by Aarushi Bajaj, as a young woman whose carefully planned life takes an unexpected turn. As she attempts to regain control of her life, Shy finds herself navigating complicated feelings involving Mayank, played by Piyush Khati, and her estranged childhood friend Dhruv, portrayed by Ansh Duggal. The arrival of Tara, played by Bianca Arora, adds another layer to Shys increasingly complicated circumstances. What begins as an attempt to put things back in order gradually turns into a series of unexpected situations, new relationships and difficult choices, setting up the films romantic-comedy premise. Talking about the film, writer and director Sreeti Mukerji said, Dont Be Shy came from a place of missing the movies I watched growing upmovies I still return to when I want to feel safe, comforted, and entertained. This is my tribute to that time in our lives, when were on the brink of adulthood but still young in so many ways. Its about that feeling of being reminded that, no matter how weird or wild life gets, we can always find our way back home to ourselves. Im extremely grateful to Alia and Shaheen for trusting me to write this story and helping me build it. Of course, none of it would have been possible without Prime Video, who believed in this story and in me to bring it to life, and the incredible cast of Aarushi, Ansh, Bianca, and Piyush, who took the words on paper and turned them into living, breathing, beautiful characters. I cant wait for audiences everywhere to meet the gang on September 25! View this post on Instagram A post shared by prime video IN (@primevideoin) Aarushi Bajaj said, Playing a character so different from who I am was both challenging and exciting, and stepping into Shys shoes pushed me out of my comfort zone in the best way. Playing the role of Shy also came with a sense of responsibilityI wanted to give her everything I had and do justice to her journey. I cant wait for audiences to finally meet her and experience the world through her eyes. Bianca Arora added, My character has a very different way of looking at things, and thats what made this role so much fun for me. Tara almost felt like she gave me permission to be my most expressive self on camera, and I found a lot of joy in discovering that side of her and myself. After everything weve put into Dont Be Shy, Im beyond excited for audiences to finally watch it. For Ansh Duggal, the project marks his first film. He said, Theres something surreal about knowing that my very first film is about to be watched by audiences around the world. Im nervous, excited, and just incredibly grateful to be starting this journey with Dont Be Shy. Its a feeling I dont think Ill ever forget. Piyush Khati said, Mayank is a character with so many layers, and getting into his shoes was both a challenge and a really fun exercise. I found little parts of myself in him that surprised me along the way. And what makes this film even more special is the journey weve had as a group, from being four newcomers figuring things out together to now seeing our film ready for the world to experience. Written and directed by Sreeti Mukerji, the film is produced by Alia Bhatt and Shaheen Bhatt under Eternal Sunshine Productions, Dont Be Shy will premiere on Prime Video in Hindi with English subtitles across India and more than 240 countries and territories worldwide on September 25, 2026.

B.R. Chopras Mahabharat to air on Shemaroo TV from September 14
B.R. Chopras television adaptation Mahabharat is set to return to television as Shemaroo TV brings the series to its viewers from September 14. The show will air daily at 7:00 PM on the channel. First televised decades ago, Mahabharat became a widely recognised adaptation of the Indian epic, with its characters and storylines becoming familiar to generations of television audiences. The series explored themes including dharma, family, loyalty, duty, ambition, sacrifice and the conflict between good and evil. The return of the series comes amid continued interest in television classics and shows that audiences can watch with their families. Through its portrayal of the Mahabharat, the B.R. Chopra series introduced viewers to characters including Bhishma Pitamah, Arjun, Karna and Yudhishthir, among others, while focusing on their relationships and individual conflicts. Mukesh Khanna, who played Bhishma Pitamah in the series, recalled how the role came about and its impact on his career. He said, I never imagined that a character I played decades ago would become something people would still discuss with me today. I remember, I was actually offered Duryodhan first, but I refused because I wanted to play Arjun or Karna, and somehow, I ended up becoming Bhishma Pitamah. Looking back, that decision changed my life completely; Bhishma became the role people remember me for even today. The most amazing part was that everyone would watch the show with their families. That is when we realised this was no longer just a television show; the characters had become a part of peoples lives. Im delighted that Shemaroo TV is bringing B.R. Chopras Mahabharat to its viewers, giving us all a chance to revisit those unforgettable memories. Im looking forward to seeing these characters live on TV once again and experiencing that same affection from audiences all over again Gajendra Chauhan, who portrayed Yudhishthir, also reflected on his association with the series. He said, The best part about playing Yudhishthir was that he was such an important character that whether he was present in a scene or not, he was always being discussed. That made the character incredibly significant to the story and made the journey very special for me. Today, seeing B.R. Chopras Mahabharat find its way to Shemaroo TV feels special because it brings back not just a legendary story, but the characters and memories that audiences have held close for so many years. For viewers familiar with the original series, the telecast offers an opportunity to revisit a popular television adaptation, while younger audiences will get a chance to discover the series and its interpretation of the epic. The shows return also brings its ensemble of characters and its narrative around family, relationships and duty back to television. Shemaroo TV has positioned the telecast as part of its programming aimed at audiences across age groups. The channel will begin airing B.R. Chopras Mahabharat daily at 7:00 PM from September 14.

Alia Bhatt, Nikhil Madhok of Prime Video, director Sreeti Mukerji and producer Shaheen Bhatt attended the trailer launch of their film Don't Be Shy at a five-star hotel in Mumbai. The venue was designed like a college festival, complete with fun activities and stalls serving gola, candy floss and more. However, the event began nearly two hours late, leaving the media waiting for a considerable time. To add to the disappointment, the proceedings wrapped up in just around 30 minutes. Thankfully, Alia Bhatt made the wait worthwhile with a hilarious childhood anecdote involving her sister, Shaheen. Alia began by saying, 14 years ago, I made my debut as an actor. And 14 years later, I am today introducing four new actors and a debutant director. I am way more nervous than they are right now (laughs)! I really have butterflies in my stomach. She was asked if she ever had the desire to work in this film as an actor as well. She replied, No, I don't think I ever felt that. I love being an actor and being in front of the camera. But being a producer has another sort of fulfilment; it gives me another level of joy. We have been involved in building the world and the story from the word 'Go', since Sreeti came to us with an idea. She expressed the desire to make the film on it. We said, 'Yes, let's do it together'. It took two years to build it out, after which we took it to our lovely partners at Amazon. On Friday, we sent over the material to them and on Saturday morning, Nikhil messaged, 'Alia, let's speak' (smiles). The host then asked Alia Bhatt, Shaheen Bhatt, Nikhil Madhok and Sreeti Mukerji the meaning of Gen Z terms like Aura farming, breadcrumbing, side quest, brainrot, ragebait, etc. Alia raised laughs as she shared, Ragebait was what Shaheen used to do to me as a kid. She used to say to me that I came free with Parle-G! Like I was not really my mom's and my dad's (child) and that I came free with Parle-G (laughs). So, that was Shaheen ragebaiting me when I was 4. Then, the trailer of Don't Be Shy was shown to the attendees, followed by the films leading actors Aarushi Bajaj, Piyush Khati, Bianca Arora, and Ansh Duggal coming on stage. Don't Be Shy releases on Amazon Prime Video on September 25. Also Read: Alia Bhatt REACTS to Ajay Devgns Drishyam The Conclusion trailer: Hat-trick incoming
Sara Ali Khan makes New York Fashion Week debut in preppy Tommy Hilfiger look
Sara Ali Khan has added another international fashion moment to her 2026 style calendar. The actor made her debut at New York Fashion Week as a guest of Tommy Hilfiger, stepping out in New York City in a look that combined classic American preppy style with a relaxed, youthful edge. For her first appearance at the fashion week, Sara opted for a coordinated grey checked ensemble featuring a structured blazer and matching mini skirt. The tailored separates created a polished silhouette while keeping the overall look playful and contemporary. Rather than styling the outfit with a formal shirt or blouse, she paired it with a Tommy Hilfiger graphic T-shirt, introducing a casual element that softened the structured tailoring. The accessories brought an additional pop of personality to the outfit. Sara added a red cap and matching red shoulder bag, creating a sharp contrast against the muted grey checks. Black patent loafers completed the ensemble, grounding the look while staying firmly within the preppy aesthetic. The combination of tailored checks, sporty accents and polished footwear gave her outfit a distinctly New York feel. Sara kept her beauty look understated to allow the outfit to remain the focus. She wore her hair loose and opted for natural-looking makeup, complementing the easy-going character of the ensemble. The result was a look that balanced classic tailoring with contemporary street style, fitting seamlessly into the fashion landscape of New York City. Her New York Fashion Week debut also marks Saras second major global fashion appearance of the year. Earlier in 2026, the actor attended Royal Ascot, where she opted for a more elegant and refined approach to dressing. Her Tommy Hilfiger appearance, in contrast, leaned into a youthful and playful sensibility, showcasing a different side of her fashion persona. With her NYFW debut, Sara Ali Khan brings her interpretation of the Tommy Hilfiger aesthetic to one of the most prominent events on the international fashion calendar. From her checked separates to the unexpected red accents, the actors latest appearance offered a distinctly preppy take on New York style while adding another chapter to her evolving fashion journey.

Virender Sehwag to make streaming debut as host of Rise and Fall Season 2
Virender Sehwag is set to take on a new role as the host of Rise and Fall Season 2, marking his streaming debut as a reality show host. Prime Video has unveiled the first glimpse of the upcoming season, which follows the power-driven format introduced in its first season. Known for his cricket career and outspoken personality, Sehwag will now step into a reality game where contestants have to navigate changing alliances, strategies and positions. The newly released promo features Sehwag reflecting on the ups and downs of life before entering the world of Rise and Fall. The second season will once again revolve around the contrasting worlds of a penthouse and a basement. Fifteen celebrities will be divided into two groups the Rulers and the Workers. While the Rulers have access to the privileges of the penthouse, the Workers will operate from the basement. The contestants will have to make strategic decisions as money, influence and alliances become important parts of the game. Their positions can change based on their choices, making strategy and timing key factors in their journey. Speaking about the new season, Amogh Dusad, Director and Head of AVOD Content, Prime Video India, said, The love and excitement audiences showed for Rise and Fall in its first season gave us the perfect reason to take this unique power game forward. Season 2 brings a fresh set of personalities into a format where power is always in motion, and every decision carries a consequence. With Virender Sehwag stepping in as host, were bringing a whole new energy to the show; his wit, spontaneity, and fearless personality make him an exciting fit for the game. Were excited for audiences to experience the drama, strategy and entertainment in Rise and Fall Season 2, and watch it on Prime Video for free. Deepak Dhar, Founder and Group CEO of Banijay Asia said, The overwhelming response that Rise and Fall received in its debut season reaffirmed the strength of its unique premise, where power, strategy and human behaviour come together to create an unpredictable game. With Season 2, we are taking that experience one step ahead with a new mix of personalities, fresh dynamics and even higher stakes, where every decision can change the course of the game. We are delighted to collaborate with Prime Video and look forward to bringing audiences a season filled with unexpected turns, strategic gameplay and moments that keep them invested till the very end. Speaking about his first reality-show hosting stint on a streaming platform, Virender Sehwag said, Cricket has taught me one thingno match is won before the final ball, and Rise and Fall Season 2 takes that unpredictability to another level. As a host, what excites me about this game is that there are no easy wins and no fixed positions. The biggest challenge isnt just getting to the top but knowing how to stay there. You have to know when to attack, when to defend, and, most importantly, when to read the game before it reads you. With money, strategy, and shifting equations in play, theres no room for complacency. Im looking forward to watching the contestants navigate the game, take risks, make alliances and show what theyre really made of. Rise and Fall Season 2 is an MX Original produced by Banijay Asia and originally created by Studio Lambert in the UK. The new season will stream for free on Prime Video and the MX Player Android app, now carrying the refreshed identity MX Player by Prime Video. The service is available across mobile devices, Connected TVs, the Amazon shopping app and Fire TV. Also Read : BREAKING: Sanjay Dutt, Virender Sehwag feature in HILARIOUS cameos in Pritam And Pedro

Speaking about her appointment, Prajakta Koli states, I have always believed in the power of storytelling, creativity and young people taking charge.

Amitabh Bachchan reveals his unfulfilled passion on KBC 18: I still regret not learning music
Amitabh Bachchan recently opened up about an unfulfilled passion from his life during an upcoming episode of Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 18. The veteran actor spoke about his desire to learn music and expressed his regret over never having pursued it, offering viewers a rare glimpse into a more personal side of his life. The conversation took place when contestant Kritagya Nayyar, who is also a content creator, requested Amitabh Bachchan to participate in a fun game of This or That. Introducing his request, Kritagya said, Sir, meri ek request hai. Maine bataya tha ki main content banata hoon. Sir, aapse bada content creator koi bhi nahi hain iss country mein. (Sir, I have a request. I had told you that I make content. Sir, there is no bigger content creator than you in this country) Amitabh Bachchan responded with his characteristic humour, asking, Sir, kisne kaha aapko ye? (Sir, who told you this?) Kritagya then spoke about the actors contribution to cinema and the country before explaining that he wanted to play the game to create a reel and gain a few followers. During the interaction, Kritagya asked Amitabh Bachchan whether he would prefer to relive a day from his past or experience a day that he has never lived but always wanted to. The actor replied, Sir sahi mamle mai hamare jeevan mai itne ghatneye hue hai ke pata nahi konsa ho, aur dusra part na jeeya ho. (Sir, truly, so many incidents have happened in our life that we do not know which one it would be, and the second part, one that has not been lived) He then revealed that learning music has been one of his long-standing wishes. Amitabh Bachchan said, Sir sangeet hamne nahi sikha hai aur uske bahut khwaahish the. Ye log jo baja bajate hai, sitar hai, peti hai, gayeke jo hote hai vo bahot humko dhukh hota hai kyunki ke hum jab sunte hai kehte hai itna badhiya kaise gaa le, ye sab hota hai, ye hamne kabhi sikha nahi. Ghar mai sir jitne yantra hone chahiye sangeet sikhne ke liye voh sab ikkhatha kar ke rakha hua hai. Uske upar phool mala hum chadhate hai ke ek din ayega jab hum kuch sikhenge. Ab 84 varsh ho gaye hain, kuch nahi aaya hamein, tho iss baat ka humko bahut dukh hai. (Sir, we have not learnt music and we had a great desire for it. These people who play instruments, there is the sitar, there is the peti, those who are singers, it makes us very sad because when we hear them, we say how can one sing so beautifully, all this happens, we have never learnt this. At home, sir, all the instruments that should be there to learn music have been collected and kept. On top of them, we put a flower garland, that one day will come when we will learn something. Now 84 years have passed, nothing has come to us, so we are very sad about this.) The revelation comes as a candid admission from the 84-year-old actor, who has spent decades at the forefront of Indian cinema. While Amitabh Bachchan has explored several creative avenues throughout his career, his comments on Kaun Banega Crorepati revealed that learning music remains one passion he has never been able to fulfil. What began as Kritagya Nayyars attempt to get Amitabh Bachchan to participate in a social media-friendly game consequently turned into a more personal conversation. The megastars admiration for musicians and singers, along with his regret at never learning music himself, offered a different perspective on the legendary actor. Kaun Banega Crorepati Season 18 airs every Monday to Friday at 9 PM on Sony Entertainment Television.

Sharat Saxena shares health update after 6-hour spine surgery: No more walking with the stic
Sharat Saxena has undergone a six-hour spine surgery at the age of 76 and has shared an update about his recovery with fans on social media. The actor appeared to be in good spirits following the procedure and used his trademark sense of humour while documenting the experience. Sharat took to Instagram on Friday and posted a montage of pictures from before and after his surgery. The first image showed the actor lying on a hospital bed and looking at the camera, with the words, Surgery done. The pictures that followed featured Sharat leaving the hospital with his family and later celebrating the successful procedure with them. Despite undergoing a lengthy surgery, Sharat appeared upbeat in the photos. In one of the slides, he was seen holding a glass as he joked about his plans following the procedure. He wrote, Party today, gym tomorrow. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Sharat Saxena (@sharat_saxena) The actor also expressed relief about being able to move past some of the difficulties he had been facing because of his spine condition. Following his lumbar spine surgery, he indicated that he would no longer need to rely on soup and also made a confident statement about his mobility, saying, No more walking with the stick. Sharing the montage on Instagram, Sharat captioned the post, 6 hour spine surgery- done CANT KEEP A GOOD MAN DOWN. Before undergoing the procedure, the actor had also shared a picture of himself getting an MRI of his spine. At the time, he wrote, Standing mri before lumbar spine surgery at Bombay Hospital. Sharat Saxena has been part of the Indian film industry for more than five decades. He began his career with the Amitabh Bachchan-starrer Benaam and has gone on to appear in more than 250 films across Hindi and other Indian languages. Over the years, he has featured in films including Mr. India, Tridev, Ghayal, Khiladi, Ghulam, Gupt: The Hidden Truth, Phir Hera Pheri, Baghban, Fanaa, Krrish and Bajrangi Bhaijaan. Known for his muscular physique and fitness, Sharat has frequently been cast in action-oriented and negative roles. In an earlier interaction with Rediff, he recalled how his physical appearance influenced the kind of roles he received. He said, I came to Bombay. I started going to various offices, trying to find work. Slowly and surely, I got small roles in films. Because I was a muscular person, I used to get work as an action character. I used to do a lot of fights. I used to get beaten up by the heroes. In Kaala Patthar, I was in the introduction sequence for three heroes (Amitabh Bachchan, Shashi Kapoor and Shatrughan Sinha). Every hero would come, beat me up, establish himself as the hero and carry on with the film. I was a punching bag of the film, and that was the story of my life for the first 35 years of my career.

Sayani Guptas US feature film debut Arya adds Ross Butler and Marc Evan Jackson as co-stars
Just weeks after her directorial debut Aasmani, a deeply personal short film about a 60-year-old grandmother and her 10-year-old granddaughter and their precious powder blue fiat, that marked her first outing behind the camera, was selected across ten film festivals on multiple continents within a span of two months, Sayani Guptas US feature film debut Arya has added two significant names to its cast. Ross Butler (Riverdale, 13 Reasons Why) and Marc Evan Jackson (Brooklyn Nine-Nine), have been roped in to play key roles alongside Gupta. The dual milestones underline just how expansive her presence has become this year, moving fluidly between acting, directing and producing across Indian and American cinema. In Arya, written and directed by Neil Tuli, Sayani plays the title role, that of a disciplined piano teacher from a well-known and prestigious Indian conservatory who reluctantly takes on an assignment in northern Minnesota, with hopes of rescuing a struggling band program while also fuelling her own career ambitions back home. But her arrival leads to some chaos, and Arya is forced to deal with her own personal insecurities. It's a role that continues Sayani Gupta's pattern of choosing layered, culturally specific characters. Only this time, she carries an entire American indie feature as its lead. Ross Butler and Marc Evan Jackson join a rounded-out cast that includes well-known artists like Arjun Gupta, Adi Roy, Kyra Leroux and Iqbal Theba. Sayani also serves as an executive producer on it as well, alongside Ross Butler. Written and directed by Neil Tuli, Arya serves as his feature directorial debut as well. However, what makes this moment a particularly significant is that it has arrived just as Sayani's directorial debut Aasmani, which she also wrote and produced, began its positive festival run, stretching from Washington DC to Tokyo to Kerala. Taken together, the two projects capture an actor who has spent over a decade building a reputation for depth on Indian OTT and is now stepping into new territory, both as a director whose first film is being appreciated globally and as a lead carrying her first American feature.
