Akshay Kumar to start shooting his action-packed digital series in second half of 2021
In March 2019, Akshay Kumar made a fiery announcement that he would be starring in a digital show called The End. This would be his first series Amazon Prime Original thriller series. He had put himself on fire as a part of the stunts planned for the announcement day. As it was reported earlier, the plan was to take the show on the floor by December 2020 and Akshay Kumar was to join by January 2021.
But, the coronavirus pandemic played the spoilsport. Since schedules have been pushed ahead amid the pandemic and lockdown, the makers are now looking to the roll by the second half of 2021. Vikram Malhotra of Abundantia Entertainment told a daily it will take a while for everything to get back to normal. He said that since Akshay Kumar has prior work commitments too, they are hoping for it to roll in 2021 now.
He said that they've taken their time to build the material, promising that it will be mounted on a scale that will be befitting for Akshay Kumar.
Akshay Kumar had earlier said, “I have always believed in bringing innovation to my work and throughout my career, have tried to tell unique stories, work with break-through talent and be part of disruptive and high-quality story-telling. Together, Abundantia and I have created some of my most memorable roles in films like Baby, Airlift and Toilet-Ek Prem Katha and their passion towards their films and projects is incredible. From the very concept of the show, I am working very closely with Vikram and his team as they create this compelling and highly intriguing story. I can’t wait to start rolling for this action-adventure series that will be Amazon Original for global audiences. The digital world excited me and I am delighted to make my streaming debut with this show. And if I were to make a small confession here, it was my son Aarav who suggested that I make my digital debut as that’s what the youth is hooked onto. On this medium, I want to create something extraordinary and connect with them.”
Being envisioned at an unprecedented scale and cinematic experience, the show promises to bring in the next level of the action genre.

Sonu Sood announces 3 lakh jobs for migrant labourers on Pravasi Rojgar job portal
Sonu Sood celebrated his 47th birthday on July 30. He received immense love and support from friends, colleagues, and fans. Since the actor has been tremendously working towards helping migrant labourers ever since lockdown was imposed amid pandemic, he has taken it a step further to help more people.
On his birthday on Thursday, Sonu Sood posted about providing jobs to 3 lakh labourers via Pravasi Rojgar job portal that will also provide additional benefits including PF and ESI. "On my birthday a small initiative from my side...3 lakh jobs tied up for Pravasirojgar.com. All these will provide good wages, PF, ESI, and other benefits," he wrote.
"Thank you AEPC, CITI, Trident, Quesscorp, Amazon, Sodex, Urban Co, Portea, and all others for creating these opportunities with me. #AbIndiaBanegaKamyaab @pravasirojgar," he wrote.
“I’ve been a part of the film industry for twenty years and done about 100 films. But nothing I’ve done so far has given me this kind of inner peace and satisfaction. I now feel that I migrated to Mumbai to be an actor so one day I could help these migrants. I feel this was something I was born to do. I feel blessed that God has chosen me for this mission,” Sonu Sood told Bollywood Hungama recently on helping migrants.
In the upcoming episode of The Kapil Sharma Show, Sonu shared, “While arranging for travel, I used to enquire about when they will come back and whether or not they will come back at all. To which I used to get a standard response saying if they get a job they will come, else they will try and figure something in their own hometown. This got me thinking. Being from the engineering background myself, I started work on a platform along with my team, to figure a way in which these people could get a job through an app. It took us 2-3 months to build this and through this app, anyone, from any state, can upskill themselves, or even find a suitable job in another state. By the time this episode goes on air, around 1 – 1.5 lakh people would have found themselves a job.”

Rumi Jaffery on Sushant Singh Rajput’s father’s FIR
Writer-director Rumi Jaffery who was close to both Sushant Singh Rajput and Rhea Chakraborty says the latest sudden development in the case has left him stunned and shocked. “When I heard that Sushant’s father has filed an FIR in Patna against Rhea and her family, I couldn’t believe it. I couldn’t sleep the whole night. Dil kehta hai yeh nahin ho sakta. But then I think of Sushant’s grieving father. He hasn’t spoken about the issue since his son’s death. Why would he suddenly speak up if it wasn’t the truth? I am very confused. I didn’t sleep the night after Sushant’s father’s FIR,” says Rumi.
Did Rumi ever see any tension between Sushant and Rhea? “I met them as an outsider. We spoke only about films. What goes on between a couple is known only to the two people in a relationship. I say, let the law takes it course. Let’s not speculate on Rhea’s guilt or non-guilt.”
Shekhar Suman, a vocal supporter of the campaign to get justice for Sushant says, “The development was inevitable. Things were heating up. I was sure there would be twist in the ongoing narrative. And here it is.”
Shekhar feels the Sushant case is spreading into many directions. “But the good thing is that the clamour for a CBI investigation is louder than ever. Sushant’s father’s FIR could be the first major step towards getting justice for Sushant. Beyond that, it’s too premature to say anything.”

The real reason why A R Rahman gets less work in Bollywood
Not gangeism, or groupism. If the composing wizard A R Rahman is kept out of Bollywood’s bastion it is because of his insistence on publishing rights. A top-notch musician spills the beans. “There was a time when every major director in Bollywood wanted to work with A R Rahman. They still do. But there is a problem. Rahman insists on retaining the publishing rights of his soundtracks. This right, no producer would give to any musician, at least not in India.”
The musician who has worked with the biggest banners says Rahman is wrong to blame a ‘gang’ in Bollywood for his relative scarcity of work. “Way back in 2003 Shah Rukh Khan and Karan Johar offered Kal Ho Na Ho to Rahman. When he asked for publishing rights they quickly signed Shankar-Ehaan-Loy for Kal Ho Na Ho. And Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions never worked with Rahman.”
The musician says there is nothing unfair about this. “Cinema is a business like any other. Why shouldn’t Karan Johar safeguard his business interests? I am not saying Rahman asking for publishing rights is wrong. But in the Hindi music industry, the immortal legends Lata Mangeshkar, Kishore Kumar, Mohammed Rafi and Asha Bhosle didn’t get publishing rights. For Rahman to expect it is impractical and unreal.”
When I approached Rahman to know more about the “gangs” of Bollywood he has spoken about, he responded with, “How are you? Our team internally felt this news is now done ..we are moving on ...Let’s catch up and do a general one next month if you are still interested. Wishing you the best...take care.”

Sushant Singh Rajput Death Case: Bihar Police records statements of Ankita Lokhande, cook and bank manager
Actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s death is taking a new turn. The Dil Bechara actor passed away more than a month ago. He died by suicide on June 14 and was found hanging in his Bandra apartment. For over a month, Mumbai Police is investigating his death. Now, Bihar Police has also started their independent investigation after an FIR for abetment to suicide was filed against Sushant's girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty and her family by Sushant's father Krishna Kumar Singh.
A four-member team of police left from Patna on July 28 to question Rhea Chakraborty and her family. On July 30, three banks were visited by the cops where Sushant had his bank accounts. They even recorded a statement of the bank manager. Even his cook and his former girlfriend Ankita Lokhande’s statements were recorded on Thursday. This was to corroborate the claims made by KK Singh and Sushant’s sister Mitu Singh that around Rs 15 crores was transferred from Sushant’s accounts over the past year to different accounts.
Earlier this week, Sushant’s father KK Singh filed an FIR against Sushant’s girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty and her family for abetment to suicide. Sanjay Kumar Singh, inspector general, central range, revealed that an FIR was lodged at the Rajiv Nagar police station in Patna against Rhea and her family members Indrajit Chakraborty, Sandhya Chakraborty, Shruti Modi, Showik Chakraborty, and others. It was filed under Sections 341, 342, 380, 406,420, 306, and 120 (B) of the Indian Penal Code.
Mumbai Police has recorded statements of over 40 people including Aditya Chopra, Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Mahesh Bhatt, Rhea Chakraborty, among others in relation to Sushant Singh Rajput’s death.

Ankita Lokhande breaks her silence on Sushant Singh Rajput’s death, claims he was not depressed
Sushant Singh Rajput passed away on June 14 after he was found hanging in his Bandra apartment in Mumbai. His ex-girlfriend Ankita Lokhande has finally spoken on his death and cites that he could not have taken his life and that he wasn't depressed.
Speaking to Republic TV on July 30, Ankita said, Sushant was not the guy who could commit suicide. We have seen worse situations when we were together. He was a happy-go-lucky guy.".
Ankita Lokhande and Sushant Singh Rajput met on the sets of Pavitra Rishta TV show and were in a relationship until 2016. "How much ever I know him, he wasn’t a depressed guy. I have not seen a person like Sushant, a guy who used to write his own dreams, he had a diary... He had his 5-year plan — what he wants to do, how he will look, etc. And exactly after 5 years, he had fulfilled them. And when things like ‘depression’ are used after his name... it is heartbreaking. He might be upset, anxious, yes, but depression is a big word. Calling someone ‘bipolar’ is a big thing," she added.
"I can say that he was not depressed. He came from a small town. He established himself on his own. He has taught me so many things, he taught me acting. Does anyone know who Sushant was? Everyone is writing their own portrayal of how 'depressed' he was, it hurts reading all of this," she continued.
She further said, "He found happiness in small things. He wanted to do farming, I know this for sure... he told me agar kuch nai hua to main apni short film bana lunga. He was not a depressed guy, not at all. I don't know what the situation was... but I will keep repeating this. I don't want people to remember him as a depressed guy, he was a hero. He was an inspiration."
On Thursday, July 30, Bihar Police visited Ankita Lokhande's residence to record her statement in Sushant Singh Rajput's death case. She had also given her statement to the Mumbai Police. Both entities are separately investigating the death now after Sushant's father filed an FIR on abetment to suicide against Rhea Chakraborty and her family.

Rhea Chakraborty tells Supreme Court that she was in live-in relationship with Sushant Singh Rajput
Actor Sushant Singh Rajput passed away more than a month ago. He died by suicide on June 14 and was found hanging in his Bandra apartment. The untimely demise of the actor shook the entire nation. As Mumbai Police is currently investigating his death, Bihar Police has also started their independent investigation after an FIR for abetment to suicide was filed against Sushant's girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty and her family by Sushant's father Krishna Kumar Singh.
Rhea Chakraborty, in her plea to Supreme Court, said that Sushant Singh Rajput's father Krishna Kumar Singh has used his influence in order to rope her in for the death of Sushant after filing the FIR in Patna, Bihar. The petition filed by her on July 29 seeks transfer of the FIR from Patna to Mumbai where she alleged that she has been falsely implicated.
In her petition, Rhea Chakraborty revealed she was in live-in relationship with Sushant Singh Rajput since a year and upto June 8, 2020 when she temporarily shifted to her own apartment in Mumbai. The petition cited that she is in trauma since the death of Sushant and has been receiving rape and death threats continuously. It also mentioned the complaint she filed against the threats received on social media.
The petition further stated that the deceased was in depression and was on anti-depressants. Bandra Police had filed unnatural death report and the cause leading to the tragedy is currently being examined.
Rhea Chakraborty was summoned by Mumbai Police and recorded the statement under section 175 of CrpC. Some of the forensic reports are still awaited. She cited that under the section 177 of CrpC, every offence shall be inquired into and tried by the magistrate within the local jurisdiction.
She said thay there's iota of truth in the FIR filed by Sushant's father and cites that there can't be an impartial investigation in Bihar and hence, seeks transfer of probe to Mumbai.
On July 30, Lawyer Alka Priya, who filed the PIL, was told by the court to let the police to do the investigation. She stated that Sushant had done a lot of work for children and even facilitated their training at NASA and therefore, his death should be investigated by CBI. Chief Justice S Bobde told the lawyer that the case had nothing to do with whether Sushant was a good or bad person. The court dismissed the CBI probe plea.
Two days ago, Sushant’s father KK Singh filed an FIR against Sushant’s girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty and her family for abetment to suicide. Sanjay Kumar Singh, inspector general, central range, revealed that an FIR was lodged at the Rajiv Nagar police station in Patna against Rhea and her family including Indrajit Chakraborty, Sandhya Chakraborty, Shruti Modi, Showik Chakraborty and others.

When Kapil asked the actor if he wrote the dialogue ‘Hum Tum Mein Itne Ched Karenge…’ in the movie Dabangg, Sonu replied, “Yes it's true. I remember, we were shooting in Filmalaya and it was our first day, after the song Munni Badnam. I have an interest in writing dialogues and the directors who I’ve worked with know my penchant for writing. Abhinav is a good friend and we keep exploring a lot in writing. During this, the idea for this dialogue came about and Abhinav and I molded it together and that’s how ‘Hum Tum Mein Itne Ched Karenge, came about. And when Salman Bhai heard it, he said to Abhinav that “Yeh Dialogue Badaa Kamaal Hai. But, Bhulnaa Mat Kisney Likhaa Hai”.
Sonu further added, "I also remember, we were shooting in Wai, and Salman Bhai and I were travelling together in a car. Salman Bhai casually asked me, 'Sonu, Tu Lambaa Badaa Hai, Tu Comfortable Hai Naa' to which I said, “Kanoon Key Haat Aur Sonu Sood Ki Laat, Dono Bahot Lambhi Hai Bhaiyaa'. Salman Khan was so impressed with the dialogue that we shot for it the very next day and he incorporated that in the film as Chedi Singh’s dialogue – ‘Kanoon Key Haat Aur Chedi Singh Ki Laat, Dono Bahot Lambhi Hai Bhaiyaa'.
Further, in the show, the cast and crew present along with the guest from NGO celebrated Sonu Sood’s birthday on the sets of the show and lauded him for his efforts of helping the migrant workers reach their places safely.

THROWBACK: "I am in a relationship with thousands of people; I talk to 200 people on Instagram for two hours daily" - Sushant Singh Rajput
It’s been around 46-47 days since Sushant Singh Rajput passed away and yet, discussions surrounding him refuse to die down. Most admirers right now can’t help but re-watch his films, check out his songs or listen or read his interviews. The latter bit is something many have been doing as it helps to understand the real Sushant and his viewpoints. And the more one reads his views, the more one realizes that he was absolutely unique.
In a Mumbai Mirror interview in December 2018, before the release of Kedarnath, Sushant was asked about not being a regular at Bollywood parties and also about his philosophical posts on social media. Sushant opened up that shooting in the holy venue has brought a change in him. He said, "It wasn’t intentional, it just happened. The change started while I was shooting for Kedarnath in the temple town and now I know exactly why I am doing what I am. It’s as simple as looking at the same thing differently through history, science or any other tool and making it far more exciting."
In the same interview, he excitedly revealed that he goes to his second house near Lonavala for three days a week. “The sky is clear there and I can gaze at the stars through my telescope or go boating on the lake close to my place which is like a session of cardio in itself. I also enjoy fishing and swimming. On the terrace, I have a 5 x 5 golf carpet to practise my driver shot,” he added. He also informed that his second home and Bandra residence were rented properties and that the only place where he has a property is the moon! Believe it or not, the late actor bought a piece of lunar land on the far side of the moon, in a region called the Mare Muscoviense, or the "Sea of Muscovy", two years ago.
His Bombay Times interview the next day is my clear favourite as he has discussed about so many aspects interestingly. This was a time when his previous film Raabta (2017) had bombed. When asked whether it can affect trade’s perception, he remarked, “I wouldn’t say that trade people are not important enough to pay attention to. If you are a producer and you want your film to do well, you must pay heed to them. You should also get affected by what they say and there is nothing wrong with that, but I have strong reasons to do what I do.” Later he added, “I talk to kids for six hours sometimes and they listen with rapt attention. It’s hard to hold their attention even for a few minutes. I tell them stories and they enjoy.”
On missing parties, Sushant’s take was, “If someone calls me, I will go. Do I miss attending them? No, I don’t, because I have many other things to do. I love partying and will go to a party if someone is a friend. I will go even if the person is not a friend, but if someone needs me to be there. I will do it even if I don’t feel like going and I won’t feel uncomfortable about it.”
Finally, when he was asked about his relationship status, Sushant gave a very wise reply, “I am in a relationship with thousands of people! You have no idea how much I love them,” and then added, “I talk to 200 people on Instagram for two hours every day and bada mazaa aata hai. I am so busy being happy that I don’t think or plan anything for the future.” Which actor can claim to be so generous towards his fans? For a fan sitting in a faraway town, getting a reply from his/her favourite celeb means the world. And Sushant was making hundreds of his fans happy with this noble gesture on an everyday basis!
Lastly, the nepotism debate has got ignited yet again post his demise. In Kedarnath, he was paired opposite Saif Ali Khan and Amrita Singh’s daughter Sara Ali Khan. Naturally, she was the talking point. However, Sushant himself had a different take on this issue. When prodded that whether he feels left out, he observed, “Will there be such curiosity for somebody who is not a star kid? Absolutely not. But the great thing about Sara is — what she was when I met her for the first time and all the hard work she did for the things she performed in the film before she started it — she is so sharp — she deserves that buzz and curiosity. Is it more than what it should be? Yes, but as I said, she deserves it. You will know when you watch the film. That’s my opinion, I could be wrong, but mostly I am right (smiles).”

The worst decision of Sushant Singh Rajput's life
The worst decision of Sushant Singh Rajput’s all-too-brief life was to leave Ankita Lokhande. When Sushant was dating and living-in with Ankita Lokhande he was a different person. Warm affectionate full of life and with an insatiable zest for life, Sushant was a man deeply in love and Ankita Lokhande was his guiding light.
Once when I asked him to define his feelings for Ankita Sushant said, “Ankita is the only factor in my life that makes me believe in destiny. How we catch what life throws at us is destiny. Ankita is my destiny.”
We had conversations about his future plans, and they always involved Ankita. When I would ask about their marriage plans Sushant had the same reply each time: “We are married to one another in every sense. There is nothing that a formal ceremony can change between us.”
But then the two families began to pressurize the couple to make it legal.
One day I got a call from Sushant. He was in an unusually very serious mood. “Sir, shaadi karni padegi. We are definitely getting married next year (this was in 2016). A formal ceremony is what both our families want. So we will have two weddings. One in Mumbai and the other in Indore (Ankita’s hometown).”
He was exuberant, excited, and unstoppable. Then it ended. Suddenly all plans changed. The relationship was called off. To this day, no one knows why. Sushant didn’t tell me. After Ankita left his life he began to change. He became more secretive, less enthusiastic about life. The will to seize the day had subsided.
Sushant moved on and so did Ankita…Or that’s what they seemed to believe. I believe they never stopped loving one another, that Sushant missed Ankita to his dying day. That the relationships that he shared with some women after his split with Ankita were on the rebound. Somehow Sushant never got over Ankita. He wasn’t meant to. They were a couple for keeps.
What separated them, I don’t know. I’ve heard several theories on why they separated, blaming both Ankita and Sushant. I don’t know what went wrong between them. But I do know that a little bit of patience would have weathered the storm. That if they had stayed together, as they were meant to, Sushant would not have died. He would have been with us today.
The big fatal mistake of Sushant’s life was leaving Ankita. I remember he once told me, “There are couples who are committed only to the moment. They don’t want to take responsibility for their future together. But for me there is no uncertainty. My future is with Ankita.”
Once they parted, Sushant’s future became hazy and blurred. She was his guiding light in the truest sense. Even if Sushant decided to quit in an impulsive moment, Ankita should have stayed on.

"I migrated to Mumbai to be an actor so one day I could help these migrants," says Sonu Sood
A lady who wanted to reach the beauty parlour, a child who wanted his mother to be reached to her grandmother, a man who wanted to reach a booze store…. Sonu Sood who has taken on himself the responsibility of seeing thousands of wage-earning migrants reach home, gets such strange requests on an hourly basis.
Sonu Sood who turns 47 on July 30 laughs these off as part of the territory. “They are part of the whole movement. There are youngsters who want to be with their girlfriend/boyfriend…I respond to them in a light-hearted manner, to keep their spirits high. There’s a bond that I’ve formed with all these migrants. We’ve become a part of one big family.”
How does Sonu’s immediate family feel about his passion for the migrants’ home-travel? “You know I get no time to spend with my wife and sons. Once in a while my children come and hug me and grumble that I’ve no time for them. Sometimes days pass before I am able to meet them. I am constantly monitoring all the travel plans of the migrants. I don’t even have time to look at my family. But they are my biggest support system. They know the importance of what I am doing. That every hour lost probably means a hundred more migrants unable to get home.”
Does Sonu feel morally obligated to get these migrants home?
He thinks over that question and then replies gently, “It’s a promise from me to take them home. They (the migrants) trust me. They depend on me to reach them to their homes. If they are all set to walk or cycle to their homes thousands of miles away, and if I tell them to wait a day or two so I can arrange for their travel, they stay back. It then becomes my responsibility to get the necessary permissions and see to it that they get to their loved ones. So yes, it’s a responsibility. But I am more than up to it.”
The sense of satisfaction that comes to Sonu from helping these distressed migrants is beyond words. “I’ve been a part of the film industry for twenty years and done about a 100 films. But nothing I’ve done so far has given me this kind of inner peace and satisfaction. I now feel that I migrated to Mumbai to be an actor so one day I could help these migrants. I feel this was something I was born to do. I feel blessed that God has chosen me for this mission.”
Sonu never thought he would one day be part of such a massive migratory movement. “Thousands of people walking with little kids and elders …I never thought I’d see this in my life. When it happened I couldn’t sit at home making videos and discussing digital content. I wanted to come forward and hold the hands of these distressed migrants and tell them, ‘Boss, you are not alone, we are with you. You build our homes offices roads and you are the heartbeats of our country and there’s no way I can let you down’. I promised them I’d do my best to see them reach home.”
What are the strangest travel requests Sonu has received? “Well, there was a man who wanted me to reach him to a booze shop. I told that was not possible but if after downing several drinks he needed help to return home I could look into that. Then there was a couple grumbling they can’t stay locked down together anymore. I suggested they take a trip to Goa together after the lockdown…I think that’s what my wife and I need to do after this is over.”

Sushant Singh Rajput Death Case: Rhea Chakraborty is not absconding says Bihar cop
Actor Sushant Singh Rajput passed away more than a month ago. He died by suicide on June 14 and was found hanging in his Bandra apartment. The untimely demise of the actor shook the entire nation. As Mumbai Police is currently investigating his death, Sushant’s father KK Singh filed an FIR against Sushant’s rumoured girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty and her family for abetment to suicide.
On Wednesday, it was widely being reported that Rhea had gone into hiding. But, that's not the case it seems. Vinay Tiwari, Central Patna SP, dismissed these reports. Speaking to a daily, it is not like that, and at this point, they are not trying to track Miss Chakraborty. The preliminary investigation is underway and they'll decide the course of action once the basic facts have been investigated. If and when she is required, they will get in touch with Rhea.
As per reports, Bihar Police is following a separate investigation from Mumbai Police.
Sanjay Kumar Singh, inspector general, central range, revealed that an FIR was lodged at the Rajiv Nagar police station in Patna against Rhea and her family including Indrajit Chakraborty, Sandhya Chakraborty, Shruti Modi, Showik Chakraborty, and others. It was filed under Sections 341, 342, 380, 406,420, 306, and 120 (B) of the Indian Penal Code.
Sushant's father made a serious charge against Rhea and her family that she kept him away from his family, was handling his bank account, crores of rupees were withdrawn in a year by her from his bank account and allegedly gave him an overdose of medicines. In the FIR, KK Singh has claimed that when the bank balance was going down, she allegedly left with his laptop, jewellery, cash, credit card, pin number, doctor’s receipts, etc. Apparently, the report stated that Sushant had spoken to his sister and said that Rhea had threatened to reveal the doctor’s documents to the media and prove him mad.
A four-team member of police left from Patna on July 28 to question Rhea Chakraborty and her family.
