written by jummy84

Harshaali Malhotra, remembered fondly for her unforgettable role as Munni in Bajrangi Bhaijaan, is stepping back into the world of cinema after nearly ten years. The once-tiny girl who won the nation’s heart with her innocence has now grown into a poised young performer preparing for her second innings in the industry.
Harshaali became widely recognised in 2015 when she played the silent child travelling with Salman Khan in the blockbuster film. Her natural acting, expressive face and emotional presence made her one of the most adored child artists of the decade. Even today, many fans associate her with the tenderness of that role.

Now, Harshaali is ready to introduce a completely new version of herself. She will be seen in Akhanda 2 (Thaandavam), the sequel to the successful Telugu action drama Akhanda. The film is directed by Boyapati Sreenu and stars Nandamuri Balakrishna in the lead. This project marks Harshaali’s official entry into Telugu cinema and her return to the silver screen after a long pause.



Earlier this year, she announced her comeback through an emotional Instagram note, revealing the name of her character, Janani. In her message, she thanked fans for remembering her with so much affection and shared that she had spent these years improving her craft and preparing for the right moment to return. Her heartfelt words touched many who had watched her grow up on screen.

The excitement around Akhanda 2 increased further when the team unveiled their first song, “The Thaandavam,” at a grand launch event in Mumbai. Harshaali attended the event alongside Balakrishna, and videos of her appearance quickly spread online. Fans expressed surprise at how graceful and confident she looked, with many dropping heartfelt comments appreciating her transformation.
For Harshaali, this comeback is more than just a new role, it represents a fresh beginning. From the child who spoke through her eyes to a young actor ready to create her own path, her journey has come full circle. Audiences are now eager to see how she shapes her future in cinema.

5 Singers Who Have Performed Globally And Taken Indian Culture To The World Stage

by jummy84 November 16, 2025
written by jummy84

As Indian music continues to resonate across continents, a new wave of singers is redefining how the world experiences our culture. They’re blending folk with pop, classical with R&B, Punjabi soul with global beats — proving that Indian music isn’t just a genre, it’s a feeling. These performers are not only touring international arenas but also sparking conversations of identity, heritage, and artistic pride. Here are five artists who are taking Indian music to global stages, loudly, proudly, and unapologetically.

5 Singers Who Have Performed Globally And Taken Indian Culture To The World Stage

Diljit Dosanjh – The Global Punjabi Phenomenon

Diljit Dosanjh has become nothing short of a cultural force. From selling out stadiums worldwide to becoming the first Punjabi artist to perform at Coachella, he has taken Punjabi music to audiences far beyond India’s borders. His live performances are celebrations of language, roots, and cultural pride, reminding the world that Punjabi music has both emotional depth and undeniable swagger, as heard in “Born To Shine,” which blends Punjabi folk character with contemporary pop attitude.

Sid Sriram – The Soul Of South Indian Pop


With a voice that melts Carnatic tradition into contemporary soul, Sid Sriram is a bridge between worlds. Raised in the U.S. but deeply connected to his South Indian heritage, his global tours and collaborations showcase how seamlessly Indian classical elements can sit beside R&B, indie, and electronic sounds. Sid is not just performing music; he’s carrying memory, language, and emotion into every performance, connecting listeners across cultures, a quality beautifully evident in “Srivalli,” where his folk-rooted phrasing meets modern melodic sensibility.

Lekka – A Pop Voice Rising Across Borders


Lekka has rapidly emerged as one of Indian pop’s most dynamic voices. With a sleek sonic identity that blends global pop energy with a distinctly Indian confidence, she’s redefining what it means to be a homegrown international artist. Her singles “Kingpin,” “Kaabil-E-Tareef,” and “YOLO,” along with her 2025 debut EP ‘One in a Billion’ featuring tracks like “Haseena,” “Wet Dream,” and “Light Another One,” showcase her fearless experimentation and performance-forward aesthetic. Representing a new generation of Indian artists unafraid to sound global yet rooted in their cultural rhythm. With her seamless blend of Indian essence and global pop appeal, she continues to redefine what it means to be an Indian artist on the world stage.

Hanumankind – The Indie Artist Reimagining Indian Musical Identity

Hanumankind represents a new wave of indie experimentation rooted in Indian storytelling. His music, modern, conceptual, and atmospheric, blends Indian cultural references with global production practices. Performing on international stages and streaming across borders, he’s proving that Indian artists don’t have to fit into Bollywood or folk stereotypes to be authentically Indian. His sound is global, but his voice is unmistakably rooted in home, something that comes through in “Big Dawgs” and “Run It Up”, where emotional nostalgia merges with contemporary production.

Jasmine Sandlas – Punjabi Singer With Raw Energy And A Bold, Redefining Voice

Jasmine Sandlas is one of India’s most dynamic and fearless voices, known for her raw energy, unapologetic style, and powerful high-pitch vocals that electrify every stage she steps on. Her latest album Legal Robbery captures her signature blend of bold lyricism and infectious beats, proving once again why she’s a force in Punjabi music. Whether it’s the fire of “Pols”, the swagger of “Taras”, the intoxication of “Nasha”, or the intensity of “Dhurandhar”, Jasmine delivers each track with unmatched attitude and emotion. Her performances are more than shows.

120 Bahadur to Hold Nationwide Paid Previews on Rezang La Day

by jummy84 November 16, 2025
written by jummy84

In a rare and surprising move, the makers of 120 Bahadur have announced paid previews across India on 18 November, giving audiences a chance to watch the film three days before its official release. The decision has been taken to coincide with the 63rd anniversary of the Battle of Rezang La, one of the most heroic chapters in India’s military history. The early screenings have created instant curiosity, as very few Hindi films today take the risk of opening paid previews so far ahead of their release date.
The strategy is being seen as a mark of respect to the 120 soldiers of the 13 Kumaon Regiment who fought the legendary battle in 1962, and also as a strong sign of confidence from the team behind the film. By allowing audiences to experience the story first, the makers hope genuine reactions and early reviews will help build momentum leading into the release weekend. 
More than 30 shows will open for booking across different cities, and trade experts believe the move could set a new trend if audiences respond positively.
Watch the trailer here: 

120 Bahadur tells the story of Major Shaitan Singh Bhati, PVC, played by Farhan Akhtar, who led his men with unwavering courage in extreme conditions. The film explores the emotional and physical challenges faced by the soldiers as they held their ground against overwhelming odds. While the larger narrative focuses on patriotism and sacrifice, the story also highlights the personal bonds, humour, and quiet moments that shaped the soldiers’ final stand. The line “Hum Peechhe Nahin Hatenge” echoes throughout the film, capturing the spirit of resilience that defines their legacy.
The paid preview decision has already sparked discussions online, with many calling it a fitting tribute to Rezang La Day. Early viewers are expected to share their thoughts across social media, which could boost excitement in the days leading up to the theatrical release.

120 Bahadur

Directed by Razneesh Razy Ghai, the film aims to give audiences a deeply emotional and visually powerful experience. 120 Bahadur releases nationwide on 21 November, and the paid previews on 18 November will offer the first glimpse of what promises to be one of the year’s most stirring war dramas.

5 Indian Actresses Who Are Turning Method Dressing Into A Full-Fledged Movement

by jummy84 November 16, 2025
written by jummy84

Method acting has always shaped great performances — but today’s stars are taking that commitment beyond the screen. Method dressing has emerged as a powerful extension of character-building, with Indian actresses appearing in public in styles that echo their on-screen personas. From promotional tours to red carpets, they’re turning fashion into storytelling, creating a visual continuity that deepens audience connection.

5 Indian Actresses Who Are Turning Method Dressing Into A Full-Fledged Movement

Alia Bhatt — Gangubai Kathiawadi

Alia Bhatt has been one of the strongest examples of method dressing in recent years. During Gangubai Kathiawadi, she fully embraced the iconic white saris, bold kajal, roses in her hair — instantly immortalising Gangubai’s aura beyond the film. With Jigra, she shifted into a restrained, functional, neutral-toned aesthetic that mirrored her character’s emotional resilience. Two films, two worlds — and she nailed both through costume-coded appearances.

Janhvi Kapoor —Mr & Mrs Mahi

Janhvi Kapoor has used wardrobe as a tool to extend the personality of her characters. For Ulajh, she leaned into tailored, diplomatic-inspired fits — sharp, structured, and understated. For Mr & Mrs Mahi, she slipped fully into the world of sport: jersey-styled saree blouses and easy silhouettes that reflected her character’s journey. Her fashion has become a direct reflection of the worlds she inhabits on screen.

Rukmini Vasanth — Kantara Chapter 1

Rukmini’s approach to method dressing has always been subtle yet deeply impactful. In Kantara Chapter 1, she shifts into a more rooted aesthetic, embracing traditional weaves, rustic textures, and a mystical, folklore-inspired palette. Her appearance as a princess was a thoughtful way of introducing Kanakavathi to the audience — offering a glimpse of her world even before she appears on screen.

Ananya Panday — Kho Gaye Hum Kahan

Ananya’s Kho Gaye Hum Kahan promotions felt like an extension of her character’s digital-native world — clean crop tops, easy streetwear, fitted denims, and pop-culture-ready looks. She brought the film’s youthful Mumbai energy into her real-life style, making her character feel relatable even off-screen.

Deepika Padukone — Gehraiyaan

For Gehraiyaan, Deepika Padukone’s method of dressing mirrored the film’s raw, intimate, and emotionally layered narrative. She embraced a wardrobe of breezy silhouettes, muted palettes, and effortless coastal-inspired fashion that echoed her character, Alisha’s vulnerability and complexity. Her styling choices — from minimal makeup to relaxed, lived-in textures — became an extension of the film’s mood. It subtly blurs the line between actor and character and immersing audiences deeper into the world of Gehraiyaan.

From folklore epics to urban dramas and intense biopics, these actors are proving that storytelling continues long after the camera stops rolling. Through method dressing, they turn fashion into a narrative. They carry their characters into the real world and create a seamless cinematic universe in public life.

Prithviraj Sukumaran also teased that working with SS Rajamouli has been a dream for him, and thanked him for the ‘torturous shooting process’ in Varanasi.

Earlier this month, filmmaker SS Rajamouli thrilled fans by unveiling the first look of Prithviraj Sukumaran as Kumbha, the formidable antagonist in his upcoming film Varanasi. Prithviraj was present at the Globe Trotter event in Hyderabad where he spoke at length about his collaboration with Rajamouli and said that his role in the film is ‘physically and emotionally exhausting’.

Prithviraj Sukumaran talked about his character Kumbha in SS Rajamouli’s Varanasi.

What Prithviraj said

Talking on stage at the event, the actor shared, “I still have that message when I was in the middle of directing my own film, when Rajamouli sir said that for my next film, the part of the antagonist has been written, and it has come out very well. Would you like to be a part of it? I always wanted to work with him and he offered me Kumbha. Little did I know that he was going to trust me with one of the most complex, most physically and emotionally challenging characters he has thought of.”

‘SS Rajamouli pushing his extremes’

He then added, “Thank you sir for the most torturous shooting process in Varanasi. I wouldn’t have it any other way. This is SS Rajamouli taking Indian cinema to the world, at his most audacious. The scale, the vision, the ambition, it’s SS Rajamouli pushing his extremes to places never seen before.”

In reponse, Rajamouli joked: “Enda mashe, adipoli (What sir, fantastic)!”

Mahesh Babu headlines the film as Kumbha, with Priyanka Chopra playing Mandakini and Prithviraj Sukumaran playing the antagonist. The story follows an adventurous, globe-trotting hero who confronts powerful adversaries while navigating perilous missions across various countries. The film is touted to hit screens in 2027.

The wait is finally over. SS Rajamouli has officially revealed the title of his next big-screen adventure starring Mahesh Babu, Priyanka Chopra, and Prithviraj Sukumaran. The film, which had been referred to as GlobeTrotter during production, is now confirmed to be titled Varanasi. The announcement was made during a grand celebration held at Ramoji Film City in Hyderabad, where thousands of fans gathered to witness the moment live.
Just hours before the event, Rajamouli shared a message hinting at a major reveal. He wrote, “The title of the film will be revealed along with a visual to the world… Once it airs on the big screen at the #GlobeTrotter event, we will make it live online.” This immediately sparked excitement among fans who were eager to see what the filmmaker had planned.

During the event, Rajamouli introduced Mahesh Babu’s character, Rudhra, through an epic poster that received roaring applause. The filmmaker had already surprised fans earlier with the character posters of Priyanka Chopra and Prithviraj Sukumaran, but Mahesh Babu’s reveal marked the biggest highlight of the evening.

The title visual takes viewers across different global landscapes before shifting dramatically to the Manikarnika Ghat in Varanasi. It is here that Mahesh Babu’s Rudhra makes his first appearance, riding a white bull and holding a massive trishul, setting the tone for the film’s theme and scale. 

Have a look at this:

The visual teaser strongly hints that the story will not only span multiple countries but also move across different timelines, adding a mythic layer to the action narrative. The event also included a musical showcase to give fans an early taste of the film’s soundtrack. With the energy in the venue running high, Rajamouli’s vision for Varanasi seems poised to deliver a grand cinematic experience.
