Sharman Joshi, known for his acting prowess and impeccable comic timing, has showcased talent in numerous films. However, the last decade has been particularly challenging for him, as he struggled to gave a solo hit during this period.
Born on April 28, 1974, in Mumbai, Sharman made his Bollywood debut with Godmother in 1999. Unfortunately, the film failed to make an impact at the box office. Despite that, the actor continued to work hard and determined in pursuing acting.
His breakthrough came in 2006 with Aamir Khan starrer Rang De Basanti. Sharman garnered widespread recognition for his performance and made a mark in the industry with notable films like Golmaal, Life in a Metro, and Raqeeb.

In 2009, Sharman starred in 3 Idiots (2009) and gave a memorable performance alongside actors Aamir Khan and R Madhavan. The film became a global phenomenon and created milestone by becoming the first Rs 200 crore film.
Following the success of 3 Idiots, Sharman appeared in several films such as Allah Ke Banday, Gang of Ghosts, Super Nani, Mera Fauji Calling, Kaashi in Search of Ganga, Babloo Bachelor, and Music School, among others. Although, he garnered appreciation for his performances, but these movies failed to make an impact both commercially as well as critically.
Amid this tough phase, Joshi approached Salman Khan and talked to him about his struggles. Salman extended a helping hand and offered him a role in his recent release Sikandar. Unfortunately, Sikandar too couldn't be a hit at the box office and became another dud in Joshi's filmographies.
On the personal front, Sharman Joshi got married to Prerana Chopra, daughter of actor Prem Chopra, on 15 June 2000. The couple have three children- Khyana Joshi, and twins Vaaryan and Vihaan Joshi.

Amitabh Bachchan's co-star reveals Big B once shouted at a crew member, and she is grateful for it decades later
Agencies Big B once scolded a crew member for being rude to Malayalam actress Shobana. Malayalam actress Shobana recently showered praise on veteran Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan. In a recent interaction with fans on Instagram, the 'Manichitrathazu' actress recalled how she was once treated shabbily on the sets of a song she and Bachchan collaborated on for a movie. She revealed the 'Sholay' star was livid at the blatant disrespect and rushed to her defense. The event took place in Ahmedabad. Though she refrained from naming the specific movie or the song, she vividly described the situation. Wrapped in several layers of elaborate costumes for a song sequence, she was in dire need of a private space to change. In contrast to her needs, Bachchan had his own well-equipped caravan, and the surrounding area had become chaotic with fans crowding to catch a glimpse of the Shobana inquired about her own changing area, an offhand comment was made by someone on set, dismissively stating that since she hailed from Kerala, she would be accommodating enough to change her clothes behind a tree. The remark was not only inappropriate but also belittling. However, what followed next completely shifted the atmosphere on Bachchan, who happened to overhear the comment through his walkie-talkie, immediately responded. Without hesitation, he emerged from his caravan and firmly demanded to know who had made such an insensitive statement. To further uphold her dignity, he offered his own caravan to Shobana and respectfully vacated it himself. That gesture, simple yet powerful, etched itself permanently into her memory. Shobana reflected on how Bachchan's humility has remained unchanged over the years. Even during their recent work together in the science-fiction epic Kalki 2898 AD, she observed how, despite the burden of heavy prosthetic makeup and long hours, he maintained deep-rooted cultural values. Every time someone entered the room, he would rise to greet them, regardless of his physical discomfort. When Shobana gently told him it wasn't necessary, he calmly responded that the gesture was part of his upbringing and something he couldn't abandon. Their on-screen reunion in Kalki 2898 AD became a milestone event. In the film, Shobana portrayed Mariam, the leader of a secretive tribe waiting for the return of Lord Vishnu in the form of Kalki. Bachchan took on the role of Ashwatthama, a mythical warrior tasked with protecting the chosen one, portrayed by Deepika Padukone. The movie, also featuring Prabhas, Kamal Haasan, and Disha Patani, shattered box office records with global earnings surpassing Rs 1,000 crore.

Thug Life box office Day 3: Kamal Haasan, Silambarasan's film crawls past Rs 30 crore
The Tamil film 'Thug Life', directed by Mani Ratnam and starring Kamal Haasan, has struggled to cross the Rs 30-crore mark within its first three days at the domestic box office. Despite being a highly anticipated release, the film managed to earn only Rs 7.5 crore on Saturday, offering slight respite after a sharp dip in collections on Day opening to a respectable Rs 15.5 crore on Day 1, Thug Life witnessed a steep drop of 53.87 percent on Day 2, earning just Rs 7.15 crore.

While the film did justice in offering a glimpse into the lives of these thugs, it wasn't long-standing in the larger scheme of things. What makes for a truly great gangster story? It's not just the violent clashes between rival gangs – it's the high-stakes drama that cuts through it all. The first half of 'Thug Life' had all of it.'The film also features Trisha Krishnan, Silambarasan, Aishwarya Lekshmi, Joju George, and Ali Fazal in key InMust Watch
