Ajay Devgn’s upcoming film, Raid 2, directed by Raj Kumar Gupta, is scheduled to release on February 21. The makers announced the release date of the drama yesterday.

Love for farming

Love for farming

Actor Rajesh Kumar has opened up on his ‘pleasant’ interaction with Bollywood star Varun Dhawan. Kumar, who spent seven years farming in Bihar after taking a sabbatical from acting, focused on cultivating crops, educating fellow farmers, and enhancing their livelihoods. Having met Dhawan at an event, he said, “He appreciated my work and especially admired Sarabhai vs Sarabhai. We also talked about farming, as he was aware of my involvement in it. Even though our interaction was brief, it was a pleasant one, and it didn’t feel like we were meeting for the first time.” Asked if he had taken a break from farming, Kumar shared, “There cannot be a break in farming. The day I take a break, we won’t survive. Farming is on autopilot right now, and there’s a system in place. After seven years of working in farming, everything has come to a point where it can take care of itself, and things are happening simultaneously.”

Not a single regret

Sohum Shah sold his property to produce period folklore, Tumbbad, that’s re-releasing in theatres on Friday. A businessman from Sri Ganganagar, Rajasthan, Shah—also known for the National Award-winning film Ship of Theseus, and the web shows Maharani and Dahaad—said the 2018 atmospheric horror drama turned out to be a good investment as it has aged well. “I sold off my property to make Tumbbad and I don’t regret it. I have lost money in this line [film industry] but I don’t make films for money. That [financial] security is very important for me. I never had to worry about where I would live.  It was sorted right from the start. I gave seven years of my life to Tumbbad. I know that even if I’m not here, this will continue to live on. It’s great that we are talking about it even after six years,” he said.

The makers of Ananya Panday’s Call Me Bae presented a satirical retelling of an interaction that the actor had with Siddhant Chaturvedi on the subject of nepotism. “It’s funny and cute. I’m glad that they thought that line was important enough to be used. Best wishes to the whole team,” said Chaturvedi. Alluding to the platform that a star-kid receives in the industry, Chaturvedi had told Panday, daughter of actor Chunky Panday, “Jahaan humare sapne poore hote hain, wahin inka struggle shuru hota hai”. In the show, the viral comment was used by a security guard during a conversation with Ananya’s titular character, who hilariously responds, “Now where have I heard that one before?”
