Fans awaiting a collaboration between Shah Rukh Khan and Rajinikanth may have to wait longer, as the former has reportedly declined a cameo in âJailer 2'. Sources say SRK is prioritising âKing', which marks his daughter Suhana Khan's big-screen debut. "The makers were keen to have Shah Rukh Khan onboard for a five-day cameo, and he was absolutely open to the idea. However, his current focus remains firmly on âKing', which holds immense importance for him," a source told Pinkvilla. "In a respectful conversation with the team, SRK expressed his willingness to do the cameo while requesting that the release of âJailer 2' could be aligned post âKing', as he wanted his appearance to remain exclusive to that film, but
that was not possible," the source added.
Reports of Shah Rukh Khan's cameo in âJailer 2' first surfaced around June 2025, sparking excitement among fans. Directed by Nelson Dilipkumar, the sequel of âJailer' (2023) continues the story of a formidable former jailer, played by Rajinikanth, who is drawn into a high-stakes world of crime, justice, and revenge.
Stories of extreme on-set dedication around Ranveer Singh have resurfaced amid chatter about injuries during Dhurandhar: The Revenge. While reports claim he and Arjun Rampal "hurt each other" while filming intense scenes, filmmaker Anurag Kashyap recalled an incident from Lootera (2013). "When he gets shot in the climax and to give it the right feeling, he took a clip without telling anyone and clipped himself. He kept it hidden, he did not share his pain with anyone, nobody came to know till he could not move anymore," the producer said in an interview with Miss Malini, adding that Ranveer had to be airlifted to the hospital.
Actor Tamannaah Bhatia said she feels "like I'm starting off all over again" even after 21 years in the industry, as she spoke at an event in New Delhi. "Not many actors, and maybe more so female actors, get this sort of an opportunity," she said, expressing excitement about her upcoming releases, including Vvan. Reflecting on audience response, she added, "The warmth I'm getting from all parts of India is really exciting and humbling."
Superstar Salman Khan has sparked nostalgia with his charming, retro-inspired look, sporting spectacles during a recent airport appearance in Mumbai as he headed to Jamnagar, Gujarat. As soon as his pictures surfaced on social media, fans were quick to react, with one writing, "Hand him a pen and paper, and that's Sameer from Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam [1999] all over again." Others added, "Bhai's old look is back. He looks in form (sic)." On the work front, Salman's Maatrubhumi (eariler called Battle of Galwan), directed by Apoorva Lakhia, is set to arrive in cinemas soon, this year.
