After days of fan anticipation and social media buzz, the reimagined version of Sonu Nigam’s chartbuster “Bijuria” has officially been released, and it’s poised to become the dance anthem of 2025. Featuring Bollywood’s dynamic duo Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor, the high-octane music video is a vibrant celebration of rhythm, passion, and modern flair, while paying homage to the original 90s classic. The song is part of the soundtrack for an upcoming entertainer, Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, directed by Shashank Khaitan. The film also stars Rohit Saraf, Sanya Malhotra, Maniesh Paul and many other talented actors, promising a fresh ensemble cast that brings both charm and chemistry to the screen. The film is slated for a worldwide theatrical release on October 2, 2025.

Sonu Nigam Returns With A Modern Twist To Bijuria

The new version of Bijuria has been reimagined, composed, and produced by Tanishk Bagchi, with additional lyrics penned by him as well. The original song was composed by Ravi Pawar, with lyrics written by the maestros Sonu Nigam and Ajay Jhingran. The track is sung by the iconic Sonu Nigam, and Asees Kaur adds a modern twist, bringing freshness, sass, and an irresistible groove to the vocals. With electrifying choreography, state-of-the-art visuals, and a pulsating new arrangement, “Bijuria” is ready to make waves across the globe.

The music video showcases Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor turning up the heat with their sizzling chemistry and infectious energy, delivering a visual spectacle that’s as glamorous as it is high voltage. From their catchy hookstep to the dazzling aesthetics, every frame bursts with festive vibrance and cinematic flair. The dynamic visuals, paired with the track’s pulsating rhythm, position “Bijuria” as the perfect curtain-raiser to what promises to be a larger-than-life cinematic experience.

Sonu Nigam On Bijuria

Singer Sonu Nigam said, “‘Bijuria’ is one of those songs that has lived many lives. When we first recorded it, I had no idea it would be so loved and would last so long, evergreen, as if eternal. Revisiting it now decades later feels like a full-circle moment. I’m humbled that the original vocals still resonate enough to be part of this reimagined version. Tanishk has infused it with an electrifying new sound, and Asees has added her own flavour that elevates the track. Varun and Janhvi have made the track special with their amazing dance moves. Bijuria for me is nostalgic, it’s fresh, and it’s made to make people dance all over again.”

Varun Dhawan On Bijuria

Sharing his excitement, Varun Dhawan said, “When I first heard this new version of Bijuria, nostalgia hit hard and I knew it was something special. There’s a connection and a vibe we’ve all grown up listening and dancing to, but this version has a fresh, crazy energy that matches the madness of our film and makes you want to get up and dance. Shooting this with Janhvi and getting the OG Sonu Nigam sir singing the track was a fun experience, the hookstep, beats and the vibe has been stuck in my head ever since. I hope this song plays at every party in the coming festive season.”

Janhvi Kapoor On Bijuria

Talking about the song, Janhvi Kapoor added, “Bijuria has always been one of those tracks that makes you want to get up and dance, and bringing it back in this film has been such a fun experience. The new version is a perfect mix that has the old charm with a new freshness that makes it impossible not to groove. Shooting with Varun and the team was an absolute blast. I think this is going to be one of those tracks that people will hold close to their hearts and also dance their hearts out to.”

Tanishk Baghchi On Bijuria

Composer Tanishk Bagchi said, “Reimagining a song like ‘Bijuria’ comes with a huge sense of responsibility. You don’t just remix, you reinterpret. The goal was to keep the essence of what made the original so iconic, while giving it the kind of edge and tempo that today’s audiences expect. Having Sonu Nigam’s voice in the track gave it authenticity and soul, and Asees brought a fierce, playful energy that gave the song a brand-new identity. It’s both a tribute and a celebration, and hopefully something that bridges generations.”

Asees Kaur On Bijuria

Singer Asees Kaur said, “Singing ‘Bijuria’ alongside Sonu Nigam sir is truly special — it’s a song I grew up loving. I wanted to bring my own bold and playful energy to it while staying true to its iconic vibe. Tanishk gave it a fresh, fiery sound, and I’m thrilled to be part of this powerful reimagining that bridges nostalgia with now.”

Get ready to lose yourself in the beats of Bijuria as it sets the tone for Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari as not just the rom-com of the year but also a musical blockbuster in the making. The track is an absolute start of a celebration that will echo across dance floors, wedding sangeets, and parties all season long. The film is slated for a worldwide theatrical release on Dusshera, October 2, 2025.

Ranvir Shorey says there is ‘mandi’ in the love market right now: ‘Today wives say even ex-boyfriend is family’ | Bollywood

written by jummy84

Bollywood actor Ranvir Shorey has never shied away from speaking candidly about his personal life, and in a recent conversation with Digital Commentary, the actor opened up about his views on love and relationships and explained why it’s not a good time to ‘invest’ in love.

Ranvir Shorey says it’s not the right time to invest in love.

Ranvir Shorey’s views on dating and relationships

When asked if he is still open about dating, Ranvir agreed and revealed that he has a profile on Bumble. He further admitted being unlucky in love since he was 19 and said that he continues to believe this. He then explained how a relationship between a man and woman is currently going through a lot.

He said, “I think as the self-defined roles of men and women are being redefined, the distance between them has increased. Kitni khabre aarahi hai ki kahin pe biwi ne ex-boyfriend ke saath husband ko marwa diya, kahin pe husband ne aapni family ke saath wife ko maar diya. Anyway I am not lucky in love and right now it’s not a good time to invest in love (There are so many news reports – in some cases, a wife gets her husband killed with the help of her ex-boyfriend, in others, a husband kills his wife with the help of his family. Anyway, I haven’t been lucky in love, and right now, it’s not a good time to invest in it).”

He added that he put up a profile on Bumble to see if he gets to meet someone but otherwise is not interested in it. He added, “Jab mandi ka market hota hai toh investor paisa nahi lagata naa? Toh yeh sab mandi ka market hai, kuch mat lagao. Aajkal zamana voh hai jahan biwi mudke bol deti hai ki ex-boyfriend bhi is a family, And you won’t be able to say anything because there will be 10 people supporting her ki kya galat kya keh rahi hai? So yeh mandi ka time hai, ghar par betho aur bodybuilding karo (When the market is down, an investor doesn’t put in money, right? So this is like a downturn market, don’t invest anything. These days it’s such a time where a wife can turn around and say, ‘Even my ex-boyfriend is family,’ and you won’t be able to say anything because there will be ten people supporting her, saying what’s wrong in what she said? So this is a down-market phase – better stay home and focus on bodybuilding).”

The actor was in a long-term relationship with actress Pooja Bhatt in the early 2000s, though the two eventually parted ways. Later, he married actor Konkona Sen Sharma in 2010, and the couple welcomed a son, Haroon, in 2011. However, their marriage faced difficulties, and they officially separated in 2015 before getting divorced in 2020.

About Ranvir Shorey’s recent work

Ranvir was most recently seen in drama series, Bindiya Ke Bahubali. With humour, absurdity and family cat and mouse at its center, the show tells a tale of family gangsters in a fictitious madhouse city, Bindiya. The show also stars Tannishtha Chatterjee, Govind Namdev, Saurabh Shukla, Seema Biswas and Sushant Singh in key roles and is available to watch on MX Player.

Is ‘Outsider’ Mrunal Thakur Being Targeted By Trolls?

by jummy84 September 3, 2025
written by jummy84

Mrunal Thakur has found herself all across the headlines for the wrong reasons this time. And the stint only highlights the aim of trolls – targeting an outsider without digging deep into the meaning behind the words. This is not the first time that an outsider has found itself caught in the public scrutiny, and it certainly won’t be the last time.

Is Mrunal Thakur An Easy Target For Trolls?

For those who enter the film industry without a family background or a godfather find it is a bit more challenging to pave their way in the competitive world. Considering that Mrunal is a successful actress, the tag of an ‘outsider’ makes her an easy target for trolls to talk negatively about her. For an actress who has always been the strongest supporter of other self-made actresses and also values the efforts behind carving a film career, it only shows how one misguided view of the audience risks an actor’s public image.

Recently, audiences and viewers have assumed that Mrunal’s words are pointing towards an A-lister actress. On the contrary, it is equally essential to observe that Mrunal clearly did not name any actress nor any film. The whole stir on the internet is completely based on assumptions, and it shows the nature of social media. News headlines are accompanied by a ‘question mark’ and not a direct statement by Mrunal, indicating that the actress has not demeaned any celebrity.

At times when trolls have easily become the second language of social media, it throws light on the urgent need to know the full story behind every post, every statement.

Dominic Arun’s Kalyani Priyadarshan and Naslen-starrer Lokah: Chapter 1—Chandra is receiving praise for everything except one dialogue line in the superhero film. After numerous Kannadigas took to social media to call out Dulquer Salmaan, the film’s producer, and the rest of the team, his production house, Wayfarer Films, issued an apology.

Sandy’s character Inspector Nachiyappa Gowda utters the dialogue in Lokah Chapter 1 that offended Kannadigas.

The dialogue from Lokah that offended Kannadigas

In Lokah, Sandy plays the antagonist, Inspector Nachiyappa Gowda, who is openly misogynistic toward everyone, from his mother to his female higher-up. In a scene when his mother asks him to marry a girl from Bengaluru, he refuses, calling Bengaluru girls a slang word for characterless. He says, “I am not saying I won’t get married. But I won’t marry a girl from this city because they’re all s***s.” After the film was released, Kannadigas took to X to criticise Lokah not just for the dialogue but also for the partying and drug usage scenes featuring Naslen’s character Sunny.

Dulquer Salmaan’s production house to remove dialogue

On Tuesday evening, Wayfarer Films issued a statement on social media, apologising for hurting the sentiments of Kannadigas. It read, “It has come to our attention that a dialogue delivered by one of the characters in our film Lokah: Chapter One has unintentionally hurt the sentiments of people from Karnataka. At Wayfarer Films, we place people above everything else.” They added, “We deeply regret this oversight and assure you that no offence was intended. The dialogue in question will be removed/edited at the earliest. We sincerely apologise for the hurt caused and humbly request you to accept our apology.”

Lokah: Chapter 1 – Chandra will be released in Hindi on 4 September. It was released in theatres in Malayalam and Telugu on 28 August. Kalyani Priyadarshan plays the titular superhero Chandra in the film.

The actor attended the screening with his co-star Emily Blunt, director Benny Safdie and Mark Kerr himself. Many have compared the moment with the standing ovation Brendan Fraser received for The Whale, four years ago. Fraser later went on to win an Academy Award for the movie.

In one of his social media posts from Venice, Johnson acknowledged the greatness of the film festival. He noted, “Act like you’ve been there. Trying to stay cool and absorb every second of every moment. #venice.”

The movie is slated to release in the theatres on October 3, 2025. The reactions in Venice confirm that Dwayne Johnson is on his way to give a career-defining performance. Fans on social media have been discussing about his dedication to the project. Interestingly, Johnson also went through a dramatic physical transformation to channel Kerr. He stepped away from his usual action avatar and embraced a leaner frame.

At a press conference, he opened up about working on The Smashing Machine. Dwayne noted that he wanted to explore more of acting after receiving the opportunity to star in the movie. “I looked around a few years ago and I started to think, you know, am I living my dream or am I living other people’s dreams? I’ve been scared to go deep and intense and raw until now, until I had this opportunity,” he added.

‘Stop Spreading Shamelessness’, Nia Sharma And Ankita Lokhande Along With Others Trolled For Having Back Towards Ganapati Bappa

by jummy84 September 2, 2025
written by jummy84

Ganpati celebrations are being celebrated with great pomp across India for the past 6 days. Everyone is sharing posts related to it on Instagram. Meanwhile, a video of popular small-screen actresses Nia Sharma, Ankita Lokhande, and other celebs is going viral on social media, in which they are chanting Ganpati Bappa Morya and clapping with full power and enthusiasm. However, all of them are being criticized for this because everyone has their backs towards Lord Ganapati, and people do not like this.

Nia Sharma And Ankita Lokhande

Let us tell you that Nia Sharma recently visited many celebs to visit Bappa. A video was also shared from there. But one of these videos was disliked by the people, in which she, along with Ankita Lokhande, Srishti Rode, and Arjun Bijlani’s wife Neha are seen. Everyone is sitting in front of Bappa, but making a reel in which everyone is shouting loudly and taking Bappa’s name.

Nia Sharma

Sharing this video on the internet, a user wrote, ‘Don’t miss any chance to make a reel!! This is probably the message coming out of this viral video. Never turn your back towards God during worship. Do not miss any chance to cash in on the opportunity!!’ Apart from this, another user wrote, ‘90% people celebrate festivals just to have fun and to show off!! No matter which religion or community they belong to!! I request such people not to indulge in sin! Otherwise, even when they start dying, they will blame God!! Be Satvik!! Be virtuous! Stop spreading shamelessness!’

Nia Sharma And Ankita Lokhande

On this viral video of Nia Sharma and Ankita Lokhande, a user wrote, ‘They are not worshipping God but making fun of him. The madness of making reels on mobile has ruined the country.’ One wrote, ‘In Kaliyug, the more money, the less sanskar. Choosing the wrong path to earn that much money. The more show off. For them, worship means an event to wear and show off clothes and jewelry. Nothing to do with devotion.’

The road to stardom is seldom linear, and it is not uncommon for actors to spend years in the industry before experiencing a breakthrough. This article explores the turning points in the careers of some of Bollywood’s most celebrated actors, highlighting how their hard work, dedication, and sheer resilience have paved the way for their success.

1. Shah Rukh Khan: From A TV Star To The King Of Bollywood

Shah Rukh Khan, often referred to as the “King of Bollywood,” didn’t rise to fame overnight. Before becoming a household name, Khan appeared in several TV shows like Fauji and Wagle Ki Duniya. His film debut in Deewana (1992) marked the beginning of his cinematic journey, but it was the success of Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995) that catapulted him to stardom.

Turning Point: The release of Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge was a game-changer for SRK. The film became a cultural phenomenon, cementing Khan’s position as a leading actor in Bollywood. His portrayal of Raj Malhotra became iconic, and the film’s success allowed him to transition from TV roles to leading man in Bollywood, setting the stage for his illustrious career.

2. Deepika Padukone: From Model To Queen Of Bollywood

Deepika Padukone began her career as a model before transitioning into acting with Om Shanti Om (2007), where she starred opposite Shah Rukh Khan. Despite the film’s success, Padukone’s journey was far from smooth. She faced challenges with subsequent releases and fluctuating roles.

Turning Point: The film Chennai Express (2013) alongside Shah Rukh Khan marked a significant turning point in Padukone’s career. Her performance was well-received, and the film’s success redefined her status in the industry. Padukone’s dedication and versatility were further showcased in films like Piku (2015) and Padmaavat (2018), establishing her as one of the leading actresses of her generation.

3. Ranveer Singh: The Powerhouse Performer

Ranveer Singh’s journey in Bollywood began with Band Baaja Baaraat (2010), which was praised for his energetic performance. However, Singh’s rise to prominence was not immediate, and he faced a series of ups and downs early in his career.

Turning Point: The release of Bajirao Mastani (2015) was a defining moment for Singh. His portrayal of Peshwa Bajirao I was both critically acclaimed and commercially successful, showcasing his range and commitment to his craft. Singh’s subsequent performances in films like Padmaavat (2018) and Gully Boy (2019) further solidified his position as a powerhouse performer in Bollywood.

4. Ayushmann Khurrana: From MTV VJ To National Award Winner

Ayushmann Khurrana’s entry into Bollywood was unconventional. He gained fame as an MTV VJ before making his film debut with Vicky Donor (2012). Although the film was a hit, Khurrana’s career trajectory was far from guaranteed.

Turning Point: The release of Badhaai Ho (2018) marked a significant turning point for Khurrana. His performance in the film was widely praised, and it became a massive box office success. Khurrana’s ability to take on diverse and unconventional roles has since been a hallmark of his career, earning him critical acclaim and several awards.

5. Kangana Ranaut: From Small Town Girl To National Award Winner

Kangana Ranaut’s journey from a small town in Himachal Pradesh to becoming one of Bollywood’s most prominent actresses is a testament to her resilience and talent. She started her career with Gangster (2006), but it was a long road ahead.

Turning Point: The film Queen (2014) was a turning point for Ranaut. Her portrayal of a young woman reclaiming her life after a failed marriage resonated with audiences and critics alike. The film’s success established Ranaut as a leading actress and earned her the National Film Award for Best Actress, marking a significant milestone in her career.

6. Varun Dhawan: From Student Of The Year To Bollywood Star

Varun Dhawan’s entry into Bollywood was facilitated by his debut in Student of the Year (2012), a film produced by Karan Johar. Although Dhawan showed promise, his career required more than just a successful debut.

Turning Point: The film Badlapur (2015) was a crucial turning point for Dhawan. His intense performance in a dark, gritty role showcased his versatility and depth as an actor. Following this, Dhawan continued to deliver strong performances in films like October (2018) and Judwaa 2 (2017), establishing himself as one of the leading actors of his generation.

7. Taapsee Pannu: The Actress Who Defied Stereotypes

Taapsee Pannu made her Bollywood debut with Chashme Baddoor (2013), but it was a challenging journey as she faced typecasting and struggled to find substantial roles initially.

Turning Point: The film Pink (2016) marked a significant turning point for Pannu. Her powerful performance as a young woman fighting for justice in a male-dominated society received widespread acclaim. This role established Pannu as a serious actress capable of handling complex characters and set the stage for her future success in films like Badla (2019) and Thappad (2020).

8. Rajkummar Rao: From The Margins To The Spotlight

Rajkummar Rao began his Bollywood journey with small roles and supporting parts, struggling to make a mark in an industry dominated by established stars. His initial films did not garner significant attention.

Turning Point: The film Shahid (2013) was a turning point for Rao. His portrayal of the real-life lawyer and activist Shahid Azmi earned him the National Film Award for Best Actor. Rao’s subsequent performances in films like Newton (2017) and Stree (2018) further solidified his reputation as a versatile and talented actor.

9. Hrithik Roshan: The Dance Sensation Turned Superstar

Hrithik Roshan’s debut in Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai (2000) was highly successful, but maintaining his position in the industry proved to be a challenge. Roshan faced fluctuating success in his early career.

Turning Point: Jodhaa Akbar (2008) was a significant turning point for Roshan. His performance as the Mughal Emperor Akbar was critically acclaimed and commercially successful. Roshan’s subsequent roles in War (2019) and Super 30 (2019) showcased his range and solidified his status as a leading Bollywood star.

The turning points in the careers of Bollywood actors often come after years of hard work, perseverance, and a fair share of struggles. Each actor’s journey is unique, marked by personal and professional challenges that they overcome through talent, dedication, and resilience. These turning points not only redefine their careers but also inspire countless others who dream of making it big in the world of cinema. The stories of Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, Ranveer Singh, and others serve as a testament to the fact that in Bollywood, success is not just about talent, but also about the unwavering determination to overcome obstacles and seize opportunities when they arise.

Actress Reveals Shocking Details! “Hero’s Nighttime Calls” Lead To Bold Statements | Glamsham.com

In Bollywood, there’s a dark side involving the “casting couch,” where aspiring actors and actresses are pressured to provide sexual favors in exchange for film roles. A famous actress, known for bold on-screen characters, spoke about facing pressure from big male stars to meet late at night and maintain her on-screen persona. Due to her unwillingness to give in to this pressure, she experienced a severe reduction in film offers.

Mallika Sherawat, who is famous for her bold on-screen character, has shed light on the seedy side of Bollywood. She described how her unwillingness to give into pressure of giving in to casting couch resulted in a severe reduction in film offers. In a recent interview, she revealed how some of Bollywood’s biggest male stars asked her to meet them late at night and wanted her to keep up her on-screen persona.

“Several heroes requested that I meet them at midnight and harassed me continuously,” Mallika explained. “Why would I go? Just because I did risky scenes on screen? I didn’t compromise, and so the offers stopped.”

Industry Misjudged Her Based on On-Screen Image
The Khwahish (2003) actress explained that her seductive roles were professionally motivated and not representative of who she is as a person. She said, “It’s wrong to think my bold on-screen image represents who I am in real life. I’m not that kind of person.”

Even though she had to share the screen with top actors Anil Kapoor, Nana Patekar, Feroz Khan, and Akshay Kumar, Mallika confessed that some of the A-list celebrities misused their authority to intimidate her. Her firm denial prevented her from getting some opportunities, but she remained dedicated to her principles.

Casting Couch: A Longstanding Industry Issue
Sherawat’s comments have renewed the spotlight on the issue of the casting couch in Bollywood. Several actresses have spoken out about it quite candidly over the last few years. She reaffirmed what everyone already knows—that young women are usually expected to compromise in order to get roles.

Spotlight Falls on Social Media and International Projects
Though she has shifted to Hollywood and obtained global acclaim, Mallika is presently missing from mainstream Indian cinema. She is still active on social media, where she openly discusses her issues.

Her bold revelations still raise important questions among the industry and people.
