Fans around the world have been concerned about the health of legendary Indian actor Dharmendra, who has now reportedly been discharged from Mumbai’s Breach Candy Hospital. Several Bollywood stars, including Aamir Khan, Salman Khan, Govinda, and Abhay Deol, were spotted visiting him to check on the veteran actor’s condition.

Known for unforgettable performances in classics like Sholay, Chupke Chupke, Haqeeqat, Seeta Aur Geeta, and The Burning Train, Dharmendra’s filmography is filled with iconic roles. However, few know that he was also considered for a major role in Shaan (1980), the star-studded action thriller directed by Sholay director Ramesh Sippy.

Released five years after Sholay and written by Salim-Javed, Shaan featured Amitabh Bachchan, Shashi Kapoor, Sunil Dutt, and Shatrughan Sinha, but Dharmendra was almost part of this ensemble. Here’s the interesting story behind which role he was offered and why he couldn’t be in the film.

Why Did Dharmendra Turn Down Shaan?

Although filmmaker Ramesh Sippy initially planned to reunite with the Sholay cast for his next big project, Shaan, fate had other plans. As per a report by News18, Ramesh Sippy wanted to cast Dharmendra, Hema Malini, and Sanjeev Kumar in key roles. However, Dharmendra decided not to be part of the film due to some differences with the director. Following his exit, Hema Malini also chose to step away, and eventually, Sanjeev Kumar too opted out, leading the filmmaker to rework the cast.

Which Actor Replaced Dharmendra in Shaan?

After Dharmendra’s exit from Shaan, there were big shoes to fill. The role eventually went to Shashi Kapoor, who had recently shared the screen with Amitabh Bachchan in Yash Chopra’s 1979 action-drama Kaala Patthar. His effortless charm and strong on-screen chemistry with Amitabh Bachchan made him a fitting addition to Ramesh Sippy’s ensemble.

What Is Shaan All About?

Directed by Ramesh Sippy, this action drama follows brothers Vijay (Amitabh Bachchan) and Ravi (Shashi Kapoor), carefree conmen whose lives take a dark turn after their honest brother, Inspector Shiv Kumar (Sunil Dutt), is killed by the ruthless crime lord Shakaal (Kulbhushan Kharbanda). Teaming up with a skilled marksman (Shatrughan Sinha), they set out to infiltrate Shakaal’s island fortress to avenge their brother’s death.

Where to Watch Shaan?

Shana is currently available to stream on Amazon Prime Video and MX Player digital platforms in India.

Karan Johar reveals his dream cast for a modern remake of Kuch Kuch Hota Hai

by jummy84 November 13, 2025
written by jummy84

In 1998, Dharma Productions saw success when Karan Johar made his directorial debut with Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, starring Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol, and Rani Mukerji. The film achieved phenomenal blockbuster status, reviving the studio and solidifying its position in Bollywood. This success was followed by Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, and the achievements ahead are well-known. 

 

Approximately three decades later, Karan was asked about his casting choices for the modern-day Rahul, Anjali, and Tina if Kuch Kuch Hota Hai were to be remade today. During a conversation with Sania Mirza for Myntra’s Glam Stream, Karan shared his thoughts. He said, “I think Alia would be an absolutely great Anjali. I think Ranveer Singh would be a great Rahul, and Ananya would be a great Tina.” 

To this, Sania replied, “And none of them would actually be acting that much,” to which Karan responded, “I think it would be a great pairing.” Karan added, “I think Tina could be Ananya, Janhvi, Sara — it could be any of the younger nepo babies.” 

 

Amused by the comment, Sania asked, “Have you ever launched someone because their parents told you to?” Karan firmly replied, “No. I knew their parents, but no parent ever called me and said, ‘Launch my kid.’ Never. Not once.” 

 

When Sania noted that many people might not believe him due to his image, Karan clarified, “I know they are nepo babies. I know their parents. I’ve seen them grow up in front of me. But none of their parents have ever called me — I have always been the one to call. And let me tell you, I’ve even been refused a few times.” 

 

Karan, however, has not directed any of the new generation of nepo babies. Ananya, Janhvi, and Sara, however, appeared briefly in his recent directorial film Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani for the song Heart Throb.

Sydney Sweeney poses for a portrait in Los Angeles on . Sweeney was named one of eight breakthrough entertainers of the year by the Associated Press

Sydney Sweeney is stepping into the boxing ring for what might be her most physically and emotionally demanding role yet. In Christy, the new biopic that premiered at TIFF, the Emmy-nominated actress portrays legendary boxer Christy Martin. Sweeney committed fully to the role, literally delivering real punches alongside her co-stars. “Every single fight you see, we are actually punching each other. We are going full force,” she told Vanity Fair — and yes, she emerged with bruises and concussions to prove it.

The actress is also making her case beyond the ring: “I was blown away that her story wasn’t more known on a universal, global level,” Sweeney said of Martin, calling her “one of the most harrowing and inspiring women that I’ve ever met in my entire life.” That emotional weight is underscored by Sweeney’s physical transformation, training for months, gaining more than 30 pounds and stepping into Martin’s shoes.

With growing excitement over Sweeney’s transformative performance, fans are eager to know more about the film and the true story behind it. Find out more about the Christy Martin boxing biopic below.

Who Is Christy Martin?

Martin is a groundbreaking American professional boxer who rose to fame in the 1990s, earning the nickname “The Coal Miner’s Daughter.” She’s widely credited with bringing women’s boxing into the mainstream, becoming the first woman signed by promoter Don King and fighting on high-profile cards. Martin won the WBC women’s super welterweight title and retired with a record of 49 wins, 7 losses, and 3 draws.

Beyond her victories, Martin’s story resonated with fans for her courage outside the ring as well. In 2010, she survived a near-fatal attack by her then-husband and manager, James Martin. She later testified against him in court, and today she uses her platform to advocate against domestic violence while continuing to mentor young fighters.

What Is ‘Christy’ Starring Sydney Sweeney About?

The film, directed by David Michôd and co-written with Mirrah Foulkes, chronicles Martin’s rise in the 1990s, her role in breaking barriers for women’s boxing, and the deeply personal struggles she endured behind the scenes. It doesn’t shy away from her survival story after the 2010 domestic violence attack that nearly cost her life, making the biopic both a sports drama and an intimate portrait of resilience.

Michôd described the project as “a wild mix of inspiring underdog sports-world story and personal saga,” praising Sweeney’s dedication: “Sydney trained her butt off to play the part. The beauty of Sydney is that she turned up to work every day with her tail wagging, ready to go. No matter how tough it was, she was like a ray of sunshine.”

Sweeney transformed physically and emotionally for the role, gaining over 30 pounds and committing to a grueling daily training regimen. “I loved it,” she told W Magazine. “I had about three and a half months of training. I started eating. I weight-trained in the morning for an hour, kickboxed midday for about two hours, and then weight-trained again at night for an hour.”

Is the Christy Martin Biopic Based on a True Story?

Yes. The film is a true-to-life portrayal of Martin’s journey, from her barrier-breaking success in professional boxing to her survival and recovery after enduring a brutal domestic violence incident.

When Does ‘Christy’ Come Out?

Christy premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) in September 2025, where Sweeney’s performance drew immediate attention. Its theatrical release was November 7, 2025. Filming wrapped in late 2024.

Is ‘Christy’ Streaming for Free?

No, Christy is not available to stream for free yet, and it’s still unclear on which streaming platform viewers will watch it.

Manish Malhotra Reveals Why He Cast Fatima Sana Shaikh In Gustaakh Ishq

by jummy84 November 11, 2025
written by jummy84

Fatima Sana Shaikh is all set to turn her screen presence into poetry with her upcoming release, Gustaakh Ishq – Kucch Pehle Jaisa. 2025 has turned out to be Fatima’s year, and she’s making the most out of it with the upcoming old-school romantic drama. During the film’s trailer launch event held on 10th November, producer Manish Malhotra revealed that the actress was his first choice for a leading lady. He praised her previous work and stated that she’s never played the role that exuded her nazaakat the classic way.

Manish Malhotra Reveals Why He Cast Fatima Sana Shaikh In Gustaakh Ishq

Recalling an instance of deciding the film’s cast, Manish Malhotra shared, “The discussion continued, and I asked, why not Fatima? She’s very petite and beautiful. She’s always done such wonderful roles, but she’s never come as a ‘heroine’ – with the dupatta and nazaakat. So I texted her, and she was very responsive. She asked for the script, and I sent it to her at about 8o’ clock. Just when I went to sleep at about 11:30 pm, I got a message from her saying that ‘I’m doing the film’. We had a lot of discussions.”

Gustaakh Ishq rekindles the magic of poetic ishq, and the recently released trailer is just a glimpse into its old-school charm. It brings together emotions, love, shayris and balances it beautifully with the art of yearning and longing. Fatima Sana Shaikh and Vijay Varma bring the story alive with their magical chemistry, while the soothing album adds weight to the poetic plot.

About Gustaakh Ishq

Gustaakh Ishq is directed by Vibhu Puri, and it unfolds as a poignant love story of passion and unspoken desire, set amidst the bylanes of Purani Dilli and the fading kothis of Punjab. Produced by Manish Malhotra and his brother Dinesh Malhotra under Stage5 Production, the film releases in theatres on 28th November.

Keyshia Ka’oir Reflects on Dallas Cowboys Player Marshawn Kneeland’s Apparent S#icide, Addresses Backlash Over Husband Gucci Mane: “I Didn’t Cast a Spell on Him!”

Entrepreneur Keyshia Ka’oir is speaking out following the tragic d*ath of Dallas Cowboys player Marshawn Kneeland, using her platform to address the seriousness of mental health struggles.

In a heartfelt Instagram post, Ka’oir expressed condolences to Kneeland’s family while reflecting on her own experience navigating her husband Gucci Mane’s mental health challenges. “RIP to Marshawn Kneeland & my condolences to his family! Mental health is real and those episodes are a nightmare for the person going thru it & the family members involved!” she wrote.

Ka’oir also addressed the backlash she’s faced in the past for discussing mental health publicly, saying, “My husband & I tried to raise awareness & the narrative was changed to me controlling him! Me putting a spell on him! How DISGUSTING! WHY? All because he’s a responsible adult who has finally accepted he has mental health issues & did something about it!”

She continued by emphasizing the importance of compassion and understanding. “We need to do better as a community! Everything is not a joke! If u have never dealt with someone with mental health please sit this one out! Never have I controlled my husband! However during an episode all family members must step in and control the situation! OR IT CAN GO REALLY BAD!” Ka’oir concluded her post with a plea for awareness and action: “We can help save more lives! Mental health is not a joke & should be taken very seriously!” She ended with the hashtag #MentalHealth.

Her message follows reports confirming that Kneeland, 24, died from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound, according to reports, which also reported that police dispatch audio revealed he told his family goodbye during what authorities described as an apparent mental episode.

Jennifer Lawrence and Cole Escola’s Miss Piggy Movie: Cast, Release, and Latest News

Jennifer Lawrence and Cole Escola’s Miss Piggy Movie: Cast, Release, and Latest News

by jummy84 November 6, 2025
written by jummy84

If you’ve ever thought to yourself, Why has there never been a Miss Piggy movie before, have we got news for you. Jennifer Lawrence told Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers on the Las Culturistas podcast that she and Emma Stone are producing a Miss Piggy movie, to be written by Tony winner Cole Escola of Oh, Mary! fame.

“I don’t know if I can announce this but I am just going to…Emma Stone and I are producing a Miss Piggy movie and Cole is writing it,” Lawrence said. Obviously, this is deeply important news for women, Hollywood, Muppets, and the LGBTQ+ community, for whom Miss Piggy is a beloved icon.

Without further ado, here is everything we know.

What will the Miss Piggy movie be about?

We don’t know.

Who is in the cast?

Aside from the titular Muppet herself, it will possibly star Lawrence and Stone. When asked by Rogers and Yang if she and her coproducer would appear in the upcoming film, Lawrence replied, “I think so. We have to…it’s fucked up [that we haven’t done a movie together].”

When will the movie premiere?

We don’t know.

Is this going to be a children’s movie?

We don’t know.

Do we know anything?

Unfortunately, not really. Back in July, during an appearance on Amy Poehler’s Good Hang podcast, Escola did mention a meeting with Disney (which owns the Muppets). Asked who would play Mary Todd Lincoln in a film adaptation of Oh, Mary!, Escola suggested that Miss Piggy would be a good choice, with all of the other actors played by humans. Then they added, “Actually cut this because I’m gonna be talking to Disney tomorrow.” At the time, it seemed Escola was just making a joke, but this news makes it seem as if they were perhaps more serious about that Disney meeting than they let on. And that’s about the extent of the knowledge we have at this time.

Luckily, the cat’s out of the bag now, which means we can probably count on more news in the very near future.

This post will be updated.

Premiere Date, Cast, Trailer & More Updates

written by jummy84

Production on Season 2 of Ransom Canyon is underway, and Netflix announced the latest addition to the cast on Monday, November 3. The cast won’t look exactly the same when the show comes back, as Deadline confirmed that two of Season 1’s main cast members will not be returning in a regular capacity. However, there will be some new faces that join the fold.

Ransom Canyon is based on Jodi Thomas’ book series, and many of the storylines were wrapped up nicely in the Season 1 finale. However, there was still plenty left open-ended, which will likely all be explored in the season to come.

Scroll down for everything we know about Season 2 of Ransom Canyon.

Is there a Season 2 of Ransom Canyon?

On June 24, Netflix confirmed that Ransom Canyon will have a Season 2. “I couldn’t be happier that Netflix is ready to get back in the saddle for Ransom Canyon!” showrunner Ashley Blair said in a statement. “Our dreamy little corner of Texas Hill Country is full of stories still untold, and we can’t wait to bring them to our incredible fans. Get ready for another ride.”

At the time Season 1 aired, the powers that be were already working on the next story they want to tell. “We’ve already started the writers’ room, even though the show hasn’t been picked up to series yet for Season 2,” showrunner Ashley Blair told TV Insider in April.

When is the Ransom Canyon Season 2 premiere?

There’s no premiere date quite yet, but at this rate, we likely won’t get the new season until the end of 2026 or beginning of 2027.

Who is in the Ransom Canyon Season 2 cast?

Deadline reported that Minka Kelly (Quinn O’Grady), Josh Duhamel (Staten Kirkland), Lizzy Greene (Lauren Brigman), Garrett Wareing (Lucas Russell), Jack Schumacher (Yancy Grey), Marianly Tejada (Ellie Catawnee), and Casey W Johnson (Kit Russell), who has been promoted to a series regular, will be returning. The article did not mention Meta Golding (Paula Jo).

Ben Robson (Animal Kingdom) and Heidi Engerman (Candyland) have also joined the cast in recurring roles. They will star in multiple episodes. Details on their roles have not been confirmed yet. Netflix has also confirmed the casting of Steve Howey, who will be a recurring guest star in Season 2. He’ll be playing Staten’s half-brother, Levi, “a mountain man of sorts who lives off the land.”

Other recurring cast members for Season 2 are Patricia Clarkson, Tatanka Means, Justin Johnson Cortez, Kenny Miller, Jennifer Ens, Brett Cullen, and Niki Guardado. Philip Winchester, who plays Sheriff Brigman, will be back in a recurring role.

Although it was expected that the main players from Season 1 would all come back, Deadline confirmed on September 22 that Eoin Macken and Andrew Liner, who play father and son Davis and Reid, respectively, will not be series regulars in Season 2.

One person who also definitely won’t be returning is James Brolin, whose character, Cap Fuller, died at the end of Season 1. Of course, he could show up in flashbacks, but moving forward, he will not be part of the present-day story.

It remains to be seen whether Sarah Minnich, who plays Margaret Brigman, will come back. Season 1 ended with Sheriff Brigman arresting his wife for killing Staten’s son, Randall Kirkland (Hubert Smielecki), in a car accident, so there will be options about how much of her future story is explored going forward. Minnich had a fairly small role in Season 1, but the aftermath of what she did will continue to affect the main players, even if she’s not directly involved while (likely) serving time.

“In a potential Season 2, I think it’s a huge part of what’s going on. We’re still just in the room, so I don’t have every aspect to tell you. Westerns are morality tales, and so every aspect of this show, we always try to come from that foundation of love, lands, and legacy, and what that really means,” Blair explained. “For Sheriff Dan, this is his legacy and his family and the people that he loves. He has this moral choice. Does he do the right thing by his family and the wrong thing by his profession? That’s his morality moment, so we try to do that with everyone, but that’s the thing he’s grappling with, and he painfully chooses to do the right thing.”

A major role that will have to be cast for Season 2 is Yancy’s mysterious wife who showed up at the end of Season 1 right before he was supposed to marry Ellie. Her face was not shown.

“We weren’t at the place where we were ready to cast that yet, and we wanted to also add a little air of mystery, but definitely a Season 2 would answer that very quickly,” Blair confirmed.

What is the plot of Ransom Canyon Season 2?

The official logline for Season 2 says: “Passions run deep in Ransom Canyon, where three ranching family dynasties reignite a generations-long feud over love, land, and legacy in their small, West-Texas town.”

Obviously, Yancy’s past will need to be explored further in Season 2, as well as how it will affect his future with Ellie moving forward. There’s also the potential for another love triangle between Yancy, Ellie, and Kai (Justin Johnson Cortez).

While the show didn’t delve too much into Ellie and Kai’s history in Season 1, Blair said that Cortez pitched a backstory for his character that intrigued her. “Moving forward, that’s a love triangle we’d like to explore, too. It was just we had a lot of them,” she shared.

Staten and Quinn broke up at the end of Season 1, and with Quinn headed to New York for six months, their future is certainly up in the air. This, of course, could be the perfect opportunity for Davis to swoop back in, although his reconciliation with Paula Jo could also complicate things. Regardless, there are plenty of avenues to explore here.

Plus, the aftershocks of Lucas’ brother Kit’s affair with Lauren’s mom, Margaret, being exposed at the end of Season 1 will likely take a toll on Lucas and Lauren’s relationship, which is already complicated enough thanks to her history with Reid.

“We also have these themes of fathers and sons. I think there’s a story to tell there, and the love story that needs to be told is between Reid and his father [Davis],” Blair hinted. “That needs to be healed and mended. And I think until he does that and grows up, I don’t know that he can be a contender for Lauren, but definitely in future seasons, for sure.”

Will there be a time jump in Ransom Canyon Season 2?

Yes, if the show gets picked up for a Season 2, there will be a time jump, Blair confirmed.

“We would need to because I don’t want to do anything in New York. Quinn needs to go away and save her ranch, and we need to see what the implications are for that punch that Davis goads Staten into doing and what that plot between Davis and Staten’s father, the senator, is like,” she explained. “I think we would probably do that because she says, ‘I’m going to go away for six months.’ So the idea right now, although nothing’s set in stone, is that we would do at least a six-month time jump.”
