06 January,2026 05:11 PM IST | Mumbai | mid-day online correspondentIndustry buzz is picking up pace around an ambitious reunion between Aanand L Rai and Dhanush, a pairing that has quietly grown into one of the most exciting creative alliances in recent years. Riding high on the massive success of Tere Ishk Mein, well-placed industry sources indicate that the duo is exploring a large-scale period action romance mounted on an epic canvas. From Raanjhanaa to Atrangi Re and now Tere Ishk Mein, Aanand L Rai and Dhanush have built a creative partnership rooted in emotional risk-taking and character-driven storytelling. Aanand L Rai and Dhanush to collaborate for fourth time? For Dhanush, whose career choices continue to balance mass appeal with artistic credibility, a period action romance could open up an entirely new cinematic terrain. Known for his intense physicality and emotional range, stepping into a world shaped by history, conflict, and passion feels less like a departure and more like an escalation. In parallel, Aanand L Rai’s industry presence has steadily grown: both as a filmmaker and a producer backing distinctive voices and ambitious narratives under his banner. His recent successes underscore a clear confidence in scale without sacrificing emotional depth, making the idea of a period epic feel like a natural (and bold!) next step. While details remain tightly under wraps and no official announcement has been made, the sources suggest that the project marks a significant evolution of their creative partnership. The intent, they say, is to blend emotion with spectacle - staying true to Aanand L Rai's signature storytelling sensibility while embracing a grander cinematic scope. For now, silence from both camps only fuels the chatter. If confirmed, this collaboration could easily rank among the most high-profile projects currently in development, marking a new chapter in a partnership that has already left a significant imprint on Hindi cinema. Aanand L Rai on casting Dhanush in Tere Ishk Mein Tere Ishk Mein, which also stars Kriti Sanon, explores the kind of love that refuses to stay neat or defined. It’s about people who love deeply and lose completely, and how that loss shapes who they become. The teaser hints at a film drenched in emotion, the kind that lingers long after the credits roll. Aanand L Rai revealed why the film can only happen with Dhanush. “After our last film, there were emotions we never fully let go of," he said, referring to their last film, Atrangi Re. The filmmaker revealed how Tere Ishk Mein was conceptualised from an “unfinished thought”. He added, “Dhanush and I kept revisiting that space, what happens to love when innocence fades, when time changes people. Tere Ishk Mein grew from that unfinished thought."

06 January,2026 04:15 PM IST | Mumbai | mid-day online correspondentAmitabh Bachchan’s grandson Agastya Nanda recently made his big-screen debut with Sriram Raghavan’s Ikkis. Just like every other star kid, his journey has also been under scrutiny. However, Agastya does not take the pressure of carrying forward the Bachchan–Kapoor legacy. The young actor explained that before being Amitabh Bachchan’s grandson, he is the son of his father, and currently, he is focusing on making him proud. Agastya Nanda on pressure of legacy In a video shared by IMDb on its YouTube channel, Ikkis director Sriram Raghavan asked Agastya if being from families of “legends” puts pressure on him. Reacting to it, he answered, “I don’t take that pressure in the slightest because I know that’s not my legacy to own. I think my surname is Nanda because I’m my father’s son first. I focus on making him proud, and that’s a legacy I carry very heavily on me. My other family members who are actors—I admire their work, I love their work. But I don’t think I can ever be them. So, it’s not even worth spending time trying to think of it.” View this post on Instagram A post shared by AGASTYA NANDA (@agastyanandaaaa_) About Agastya Nanda’s family Agastya is the son of Shweta Bachchan and Nikhil Nanda, grandson of Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan, and nephew of Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai. Nikhil Nanda is the grandson of Raj Kapoor and the son of Ritu Nanda and Rajan Nanda. More about Ikkis Directed by Sriram Raghavan, Ikkis is a war biopic based on Second Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal, the youngest recipient of the Param Vir Chakra. The film also stars Jaideep Ahlawat, Suhasini Mulay, Sikander Kher, and Rahul Dev. It was released on January 1, 2026. The war drama has collected a total of Rs 21.50 crore in five days.

As Agastya himself is not on social media, his sister, Navya Nanda, dropped a short and sweet gratitude note on his behalf on her Instagram, saying, “This was, is, and always will be the most special character I got to play. Thank you, Arun Khetarpal…. Love, Agastya. (sic)”
06 January,2026 03:29 PM IST | Mumbai | mid-day online correspondentDeepika Padukone turned 40 on Monday, January 5. She hosted a pre-birthday celebration with her fans, which included a cake-cutting ceremony and a meet-and-greet event where she answered fan questions. At the event, fans expressed interest in seeing her in a romantic comedy. Deepika said that while she and her team are scouting for scripts in the genre, not many producers are currently backing rom-coms. Deepika on rom-coms In a video from the fan meet, Deepika was asked when she would be seen in a rom-com. Responding to the question, the actress said, “I really hope very, very soon. As you all know, it is one of my most favourite genres as an audience member and as an actor. I just feel that the climate right now, or the environment, is such that audiences are seeking something else. But if so many of you want a rom-com, I’m sure a large part of the public also wants that.” Fans also shouted the names of actors they would like her to share screen space with in a rom-com, including Hrithik Roshan and Shah Rukh Khan. However, the loudest cheer was for her pairing with husband and actor Ranveer Singh. She added that while she and her team are constantly looking for strong rom-com scripts, very few producers are backing the genre. “Honestly, this is something my team and I keep looking out for. We are constantly searching for drama, love stories, and rom-coms, but there are very few producers backing that kind of content, or very few writers working on it right now. If you come across an interesting book or material, I’m always happy to look at it,” she said. Deepika Padukone launches the OnSet Program Continuing her commitment to nurturing authentic storytelling and fresh talent, Deepika announced the launch of The OnSet Program, the next chapter of her Create With Me platform. The initiative aims to empower aspiring creative artists seeking careers in the Indian film, television, and advertising industries, offering them a platform to be “seen, heard, and experienced.” While the program will provide training opportunities to promising talent, it will also serve as a launchpad for individuals with the expertise and experience to lead their own projects. Writing, direction, camera, lighting, editing, sound design, art direction, costume designing, hair styling, make-up artistry, and production are among the departments included in the program’s first phase.

How Imran Khan joined Happy Patel Khatarnak Jasoos Speaking about the collaboration, Vir Das opened up about how a simple message turned into an exciting creative opportunity that eventually shaped a key character in the film.

Can I come and do something fun in the film?’” The message, according to Vir, came as a pleasant surprise, especially considering Imran’s selective approach to projects and his general distance from the spotlight in recent years. What followed was a collaborative process driven by instinct and trust. Vir shared that once Imran expressed interest, he felt compelled to do justice to the actor’s willingness to step back into a film set. “After he reached out to me, I went back and incorporated him into the script of Happy Patel,” Vir explained. “I was like, yes, definitely, but then give me some time. I’ll craft a character for you that is entertaining and wild, and we need to do something you’ve never attempted before.” About the film The trailer of Happy Patel: Khatarnak Jasoos has taken the fun to another level.

06 January,2026 01:20 PM IST | Mumbai | mid-day online correspondentMayasabha, the much-anticipated Hindi feature film directed by Rahi Anil Barve and produced by Zirkon Films, is all set for its nationwide theatrical release on 30th January 2026. Starring an accomplished ensemble cast of Jaaved Jaaferi, Mohammad Samad, Veena Jamkar, and Deepak Damle, the film offers a gripping and introspective exploration of human relationships and the illusions that shape human lives. Mayasabha's journey at film festivals Ahead of its theatrical debut, Mayasabha has built strong momentum on the festival circuit. The film will be specially screened at the Third Asian Film Festival (9th–15th January 2026), with a showcase scheduled for 11th January at 11:30 AM. This will be followed by its official selection under Indian Cinema at the Pune International Film Festival (PIFF) 2026, organized by the Government of Maharashtra, where the film will screen on 17th January at 7:00 PM. Sharing his thoughts, director Rahi Anil Barve said, “The audience response so far has been extremely encouraging. Festivals like the Third Asian Film Festival and PIFF provide an ideal platform for a film like Mayasabha to connect with discerning viewers. With the theatrical release on 30th January, we are excited to take the film to a much wider audience.” Adding to the film’s growing buzz, Mayasabha recently received an enthusiastic response as the Opening Film at the Annabhau Sathe Film Festival in Pune, earning strong appreciation and positive word of mouth. The film also remained in the spotlight during the closing phase of the Jagran Film Festival 2025 in Mumbai, further strengthening anticipation ahead of its theatrical release. More about Mayasabha In Mayasabha, the audience and the four characters begin the journey together — the treasure hunt starts at the same moment for both. But as the film moves forward, the revelations experienced by the characters and the revelations experienced by the audience begin to diverge. The shocks that hit the characters come from what they discover within the story, while the audience is struck by truths the characters themselves cannot see. Yet the film never alienates its viewers; it ensures that the audience remains emotionally aligned with the characters. And perhaps the most unique — and even risky — choice lies in the climax, where Barve breaks almost every well-accepted rule associated with traditional mystery thrillers, choosing a path that is completely unheard of. Produced by Zirkon Films, Mayasabha is backed by producers Girish Patel and Ankoor J Singh, with co-producers Shamrao Bhagwan Yadav, Chanda Yadav, Kewal Handa, and Manish Handa. The film is presented and distributed by Pickle Entertainment, led by Sameer Dixit and Rishikesh Bhiringi, with creative consultation by Ashish Ningurkar.
