Kartik Aaryans Captain India to explore Yemen rescue mission against the backdrop of Houthi conflict
Kartik Aaryans upcoming aviation drama Captain India, directed by Shimit Amin, is reportedly set against the backdrop of the conflict in Yemen. Inspired by a real-life humanitarian evacuation mission, the film will mark Kartiks first time playing a pilot.

Joining the charismatic Arjun Rampal are three accomplished performers Jennifer Winget, Sapna Pabbi and Vipin Sharma. The series is scheduled to commence filming on November 15, 2026, in and around London, with an extensive shooting schedule featuring magnificent real locations and specially constructed grand sets. Mounted on a large production scale, Billionaire aims to bring the world of extraordinary ambition, wealth, power and corporate intrigue to life with cinematic grandeur. What makes Billionaire keenly-awaited is the coming together of two distinctive filmmakers Hansal Mehta and Robbie Grewal both of whom have made an impact on Indian streaming entertainment with their acclaimed work. Hansal Mehta, the filmmaker behind the iconic Scam 1992, changed the way Indian audiences experienced financial and business dramas, turning a complex real-world story into a gripping mainstream phenomenon. Robbie Grewal, on the other hand, delivered one of the most celebrated corporate dramas with Made in India A Titan Story, bringing the extraordinary vision, ambition and legacy behind the Titan brand to the screen. With Arjun Rampal leading the series, the addition of Jennifer Winget, Sapna Pabbi and Vipin Sharma adds considerable excitement to the project. Jennifer Winget, celebrated for her commanding screen presence and versatile performances, brings a strong audience following to the ensemble. Sapna Pabbi, known for her work across films and streaming projects, adds another dynamic dimension, while veteran actor Vipin Sharma, widely admired for his nuanced and memorable performances, further strengthens the cast.

Kriti Kharbanda recently used social media to draw attention to an important road safety measure, reminding people that wearing a seatbelt is equally necessary for passengers travelling in the back seat of a car. Sharing a selfie from inside a vehicle, Kriti wrote, Peeche wali seat pe bhi seatbelt zaroori hai, highlighting the need to follow basic safety precautions regardless of where one is seated. While seatbelts are often associated with drivers and front-seat passengers, rear-seat occupants are also at risk of injuries in the event of sudden braking or a road accident. Wearing a seatbelt can help reduce the risk of serious injuries during a collision. Through her post, Kriti reiterated a simple but important message: road safety should remain a priority for everyone travelling in a vehicle. The actor also added a playful touch to her post by mentioning that her makeup was on point. The casual selfie brought together a personal moment and a reminder about responsible travel, drawing attention to a precaution that is sometimes overlooked by passengers in the back seat. Kriti's message serves as a reminder that safety measures should not be ignored for the sake of convenience, even when travelling short distances. Whether seated in the front or the rear, passengers need to make seatbelts a part of every car journey. With her straightforward message, the actor highlighted the importance of building safer travel habits. Her post reinforces the idea that seatbelts are not limited to a particular seat but are an essential safety measure for everyone inside a moving vehicle.

The season opener features Sania taking on Sonakshi and Zaheer in a game of pickleball before joining the couple for a candid conversation about their seven-year relationship, their first five-and-a-half-hour conversation and their experience of working together after marriage. Through playful exchanges and personal anecdotes, the episode offers viewers a glimpse into the couples life beyond their public appearances.

Speaking about working with Zaheer after marriage, Sonakshi said, For me, romancing on screen is the toughest thing ever. So when its with your own husband, then its fine. It just eases you out when you have your person around you. But of course, when we are at work, its time to work. Sonakshi also spoke about her approach to travelling, explaining how years of work-related travel influenced her decision to take a break from it. She said, I love doing that because all my life Ive had to travel for work, like 2530 weeks. So I was like, I dont want to do anything.

She said, When I first tried my hand at podcasting, I wasn't sure how much I would enjoy it. But over time, I realised how much I love having these conversations and getting to know people beyond what we see of them publicly. The success and response to Season 1 gave me even more reason to come back with Season 2. I've spent years smashing it on the tennis court, and now I'm enjoying this new innings as a podcaster. Having IVM Podcasts, one of the pioneers in the Indian podcasting space, partner with me on this journey makes it even more exciting. We have a fantastic lineup this season, and I'm looking forward to audiences discovering these conversations. The second season continues Sanias exploration of conversations that go beyond the public image of her guests, with pickleball serving as an additional element of the format. The first episode of Serving It Up with Sania Season 2, featuring Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal Khan, is now streaming on the shows YouTube channel. New episodes will be released every Friday.

The heartwarming film Little Thomas released this Friday, October 23, and it revolves around a simple yet amusing premise a young boy trying to find out where babies come from! At the trailer launch, lead actor Gulshan Devaiah was asked whether he, too, had ever gone to great lengths to find the answer to a question. The actor, in his trademark entertaining style, replied, I did something in Class 5, but I cant say it here. Thoda non-veg variety ka hai! Yeh kisi podcast mein bataunga main. Yahaan pe Reel accha nahin katega. Podcast ka Reel accha katega! (laughs). Bollywood Hungama recently spoke exclusively to Gulshan Devaiah and requested him to reveal what exactly happened in Class 5, even though we weren't conducting a podcast with him! The actor was gracious enough to share the hilarious incident. Gulshan Devaiah began by saying, There was a kid in my class who abused another student. But he said, You bloody basket! The kid who got abused complained to the class teacher. She scolded the guy who abused and told him, How dare you talk like this? A certain decorum needs to be maintained in school. Since it was a convent school, toh angrezi mein hi daant padti thi! He continued, I was listening to the scolding and thought, kuch toh gadbad hai. So, I raised my hand. The teacher asked, Yes, Gulshan?. I said, He said bloody basket. That's not really a bad word. Bloody b*****d is the correct term (laughs). The teacher was shocked and retorted, No, bloody basket is an abuse. Sit down! Gulshan Devaiah laughed as he further revealed, Baat wahaan khatam nahin hui. I was sure that it was Bloody b*****d. I had heard it in films and also in real life. I guess my father had also uttered the abuse in a traffic jam! So, I asked my mother and told her how I had corrected my teacher (laughs). I asked my mother, Is bloody basket a gaali or bloody b*****d?. This was also the time when I didn't know the meaning of b*****d. He concluded, My mother heard me and advised, Aisi baatein tu school mein mat kiya kar. Bahut problem hogi. Jo bhi teacher keh rahi hai, tu bas haan-haan kar (laughs). Many years later, I got to know the meaning of b*****d. That's when I understood why everyone was so uncomfortable. Hence, I couldn't say this in front of my kids that day.

The recently released courtroom drama Prahaar has been appreciated not just for addressing an important subject pertaining to the 26/11 terror attacks but also for its memorable moments and powerful performances. Rajkummar Rao shines in the lead role of Ujjwal Nikam, while Lalit Prabhakar leaves a lasting impression as Ajmal Kasab. Another actor who makes his presence felt is Sikandar Kher. He essays the role of Abbas Kazmi, the lawyer who defended Kasab in the high-profile trial. In an exclusive interview with Bollywood Hungama, the dashing and talented Sikandar Kher spoke about his role, how he prepared for it and a lot more. From the trailers, we expected Kazmi to be depicted as a villain. However, the makers have humanized him. How did that come about, and how did you prepare for the role? It was important. In fact, I asked director Avinash Arun if I could meet the real Abbas Kazmi ji because I wanted to understand this lawyer who took up the responsibility of defending Kasab. It's almost unbelievable in this country. From what I learned, the Bar Council of India had agreed that no one would defend him. Yet, he went against their directive to take up the case. I wanted to have a conversation with him to understand the human being that he is. I didn't ask him why he took up the case. I just wanted to gauge what kind of person he was. He was kind enough to meet me, and we had a great conversation. It will always remain personal, and I wouldn't want to reveal all its details. Not that there was anything controversial. It's just that these were personal moments I shared with him to understand him better. I had read the script, and I knew that he had gone through some tough moments. For instance, we see in the film that when he's out celebrating Eid with his family, a person approaches him and admonishes him. His own community had ostracized him. There were chants of 'Hang Kazmi' along with 'Hang Kasab' as well. That man did go through this internal conflict in real life. But it was predominantly about upholding the Constitution of India, which was the whole reason behind giving Kasab a trial and showing the world that our country is a democracy, where everybody gets a fair trial before being sentenced. At the end of the day, he's a human being and an Indian. This is his country. At the same time, he's a lawyer. He took up something that nobody else would have had the courage to take up. So, you get to see his human side as well. I was very happy when I saw the film because the makers had retained the silences and the moments where one could see his internal conflict. Speaking of silences and internal conflict, there's a scene where Kazmi asks the girl, Komal Ahirwar, to show the wound at the back of her head to the court. Could you explain why he does that, especially when he was defending Kasab? When you see the scene, you realize that he's feeling for her as she's giving her statement in the witness box. When you have such a young girl, you believe her story. You know in your heart what the truth is, but you're still doing your duty. In such situations, the lines may get blurred. So, at that point, he's probably attempting to cross-examine the witness. But then, he's also human. He's looking at a child who's probably going to suffer from PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) for the rest of her life. It was something he had to ask, and so he just asked it. He probably didn't have anything else to ask that girl. The performances by Rajkummar Rao and Lalit Prabhakar are excellent. Lalit's expressions, silences, the tilt of his head, etc., add to the impact. How was your experience working with them? It was great. Avinash deserves a lot of credit for it. He's such a wonderful man, and hence, the energy on set was great. Raj and I had collaborated before, and he's always been a team player. This time was no different. When I saw Lalit on the set and he walked into the witness box, I just knew that this guy was going to nail it completely. And he totally did! I think Raj, Lalit and every other actor in the film have done so well. The performances have rightfully been praised. It's always great to work with people who are willing to listen to each other, collaborate, jam and really bring a scene together. That's so important for us as actors and also for the audience at large. What's next? Chaar Yaar dropped on Amazon Prime Video on October 23. It's a very mazedaar show. I have also just finished shooting Season 2 of Dahaad. I'm really looking forward to it. Working with Reema Kagti, Zoya Akhtar, Ruchika Oberoi and the entire cast was a treat. It's your birthday on October 31. What are your plans? (Smiles) I'll most probably be working, which is the best kind of birthday for me! So, yes, I'll probably be at work.
