Made for Rs 40 crore, this movie became hit, earned Rs..., yet Salman never worked with lead actress again due to..., movie is...
Bollywood's one of the biggest Khans – Salman Khan – was once known as a hit machine. There was a time when the actor delivered back-to-back hit films. During his golden period, a movie was released which became a blockbuster. Made for Rs 40 crore, this film earned Rs 137 crore worldwide. Despite the movie being a hit, Salman never worked with the lead actress ever again.
Yes, you read that right! If you are wondering which movie we are talking about, then the film in discussion is the superhit Ready. Featuring Salman Khan in the lead role, Ready was released in 2011 and was helmed by Anees Bazmee.
Ready was produced by Sohail Khan, Bhushan Kumar, Krishna Kumar, Nitin Manmohan, Nasir Khan, and Rajat Rawail. Apart from Salman being the lead, the movie also starred Asin opposite him. Other than these lead actors, Ready also featured Paresh Rawal, Mahesh Manjrekar, Sharat Saxena, Manoj Joshi, Puneet Issar, Sudesh Lehri, and Akhilendra Mishra in key roles.
Salman Khan Never Worked With Asin Because…
This was the only collaboration between Salman Khan and Asin. The duo never worked with each other ever again. Before Ready, Salman and Asin's another film London Dreams had also surfaced online. However, the movie did not perform well at the box office. Following this, the two only worked together in Ready and never collaborated again.
Coming back to Ready, the movie was a huge hit and songs like 'Humko Pyar Hua', 'Dhin Chika', 'Meri Ada Bhi' and 'Character Dhila' were superhits.
Coming to Salman Khan's work front, he was last seen in Sikander which did not do well on the box office.

Kashmir to Kanyakumari no longer just a slogan: LG Sinha
JAMMU: J&K lieutenant governor Manoj Sinha lavished praise on PM Narendra Modi Friday for making the 'Kashmir-to-Kanyakumari slogan' a reality and carrying forward what he said was 'a socio-economic revolution in J&K' since the abrogation of Article 370 in 2019. 'He has connected the hearts of millions of Indians, forging an unbreakable bond from north to south,' Sinha said in Katra after PM Modi inaugurated the Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla Rail Link and flagged off the Valley's first Vande Bharat Express service. The LG said the world's tallest railway bridge, built over the Chenab, and Anji rail bridge were representative of this progress. 'The skills of our engineers to build the Chenab and Anji bridges, and the toil of our workers who carved a rail route through the mountains have eliminated the gaps that existed between India's crown jewel and the rest of the country.' Sinha pointed out that since April 2022, the PM had commissioned or inaugurated Rs 1.15 lakh crore worth of projects for J&K.

Relief for parents as notebooks cost less after raw paper prices fall
Pune: Parents across Pune are breathing easier this school season after a noticeable drop in the prices of notebooks and school stationery. The academic year will begin in 10 days for most govt and private schools and the markets are bustling. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The price reduction is largely due to a steep fall—around 40 to 50%—in the cost of raw paper imported from abroad. This led to a 15 to 20% drop in the prices of notebooks, registers, and other paper-based school materials. Retailers confirmed that notebooks which cost ₹400–₹450 per dozen last year are now available for ₹300. A4-size notebooks, earlier priced at ₹600 per dozen, are now being sold at ₹450–₹480. Drawing books, which were ₹42, are now ₹32 per book. However, prices for felt pens and whiteners remained unchanged. "Prices have come down by at least 10-15%," Rajiv Chandak of Trimurti Traders said. "Medium-quality A4 notebooks that sold for ₹540 are now ₹450. We've revised our cash memos to reflect the new rates." Sachin Gaikwad of ABC Stationers added, "Last year, A4 notebooks were priced between ₹700 and ₹800 depending on the brand. This year, they are available for as low as ₹300. It's a 5–8% dip across various formats." Nikhil Shah of Bombay Book Manufacturing Company said, "Paper rates have stabilised. Last year, during the peak season, prices shot up. This year, the same A4 notebook from a top brand like Classmate, which cost Rs 75, is available for Rs 65." Kothrud resident Suhas Kulkarni said, "We have two school-going children, so every rupee matters. Compared to the last year, our stationery bill is down by nearly 20%. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now It's a big relief. We could buy everything—bags, notebooks, lunch boxes—within our budget." Kondhwa resident Vaishali Kedari said, "Usually, we spend a lot on notebooks and registers. But this year, the prices are really reasonable. We didn't have to cut corners and were able to buy everything our daughter needed without stress." With school reopening just a week away, shopkeepers expect more crowds during this weekend and over the next week. For now, the price correction is happy news.
