's husband clarified that their presence at the party had nothing to do with each other, they came solely for him.
In an exclusive conversation with Filmygyaan, Vicky spoke about Isha, Samarth and Abhishek joining his birthday wish for their love for him.
Speaking about Isha, Abhishek, and Samarth attending his birthday party, Vicky Jain said, "Woh sab individual level par mujhse bohot connected hain. Toh itne saare log hain to yeh ek parivar ban chuka hai. Aapka birthday hoga toh vo saare log joh aapki journey mein important hain woh sab wahan rehne chahiye. Toh woh sab mere liye aaye the, koi bhi ek doosre ke liye nahi aaye the, sab wahan mere liye aaye the. (All of them are very closely connected to me on a personal level.

There are so many of us now that it has become like a family. On your birthday, all the people who have been important in your journey should be there. They all came for me, not for each other — everyone was there just for me).'
At the birthday party, there was no awkwardness between Isha, Abhishek and Samarth and they were seen partying hard together. Isha posed for photos with both Abhishek Kumar and Samarth Jurel. She was even seen shaking a leg with Ankita Lokhande and Samarth on the BB 17 Anthem.
While Isha and Abhishek's equation has become the talk of the town, the duo recently appeared together in a music video Ni Tu Baar Baar.
Earlier, in an interview with Times of India TV, Abhishek had spoken about his experience of working with Isha on Laughter Chefs, "It was a very good moment and I was the one who took the initiative to talk to her. Krushna bhai took us towards Isha to dance on her popular song. Woh gaana kitna viral hogaya hai. She is doing some great work and I feel everyone is doing good job in their respective space. Shayad aisa portray hojaata hoga that we hate each other but there is nothing like that.
Nobody hates anyone and we all are somehow connected to each other," he shared back then.

'War 2' advance booking report Day 1: Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR starrer sells 1.26 lakh tickets; collections touch Rs 8.50 crore ahead of realease

With the clock ticking down to the release of 'War 2', the buzz is at an all-time high. The next big chapter in Yash Raj Films' Spy Universe, starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR , and helmed by Ayan Mukerji, has taken a solid headstart at the box office. The action entertainer, which opened ticket sales on Sunday, has already crossed 1.26 lakh tickets sold. As per early estimates on Sacnilk, collections from advance sales had touched Rs 4.1 crore by Tuesday, with two days still to go before the film's release. While the numbers seem modest for an early start, according to the report, box office numbers are expected to rise even further with blocked seats pushing the tally to Rs 8.54 crore. Early booking When sales opened on August 10, the film raced to the Rs 33.05 lakh mark within hours. Since then, demand has surged, especially in the Hindi belt. Format-wise performance The Hindi 2D version has emerged as the biggest revenue driver so far, bringing in an estimated Rs 3.19 crore. The Hindi IMAX format, has added another Rs 32.70 lakh to the tally. Among the dubbed versions, the Telugu release has shown a strong response, grossing around Rs 43.35 lakh, while the Tamil version has registered more modest figures at approximately Rs 6.74 lakh. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Unsold 2021 Cars Now Almost Free - Prices May Surprise You Unsold Cars | Search Ads Learn More Undo Meanwhile, screenings in premium formats such as ICE, Dolby Cinema, and 4DX have collectively contributed an estimated Rs 7.53 lakh. Top-performing states Maharashtra leads the charts with Rs 1.73 crore, followed by Delhi, earning Rs 1.44 crore and Karnataka scoring Rs 1.1 crore collection, with the inclusion of blocked seats. The release on August 14 sets up a direct showdown with Rajinikanth's 'Coolie'. While 'War 2' is expected to dominate the Hindi-speaking markets, 'Coolie' will have the upper hand in Tamil Nadu and Kerala. The Telugu states could see the fiercest competition, with both films rolling out aggressive promotions and competitive ticket pricing. Screen advantage According to distribution reports, 'War 2' has locked 90% of single screens and 80–85% of multiplex screens in the Hindi circuit. Premium formats including IMAX, 4DX, ICE, and Dolby Cinema will give audiences a high-octane viewing experience. International markets In North America, as of August 11, 'War 2' had raked in USD 398.5K in pre-sales from nearly 15,000 tickets sold for 1,820 shows across 680+ locations in the US. Including Canada, pre-sales stood at USD 435K and are expected to approach the USD 500K mark before release. Premiere day earnings are projected to hover around USD 900K, based on current trends. However, 'Coolie' is currently far ahead in the region, with USD 1.85 million in premiere pre-sales and on track to cross USD 2 million — one of the highest tallies for an Indian film in the market. Late but wide release Unlike other big-ticket releases that open bookings well in advance, War 2 began selling tickets just four days before release. The Hindi version alone is expected to open on a massive 5,000 screens across India. Censor details The CBFC cleared the film with a U/A 16+ rating on August 6, 2025, and a runtime of 2 hours, 59 minutes, 49 seconds.

Mobile theatre revolutionary Hemanta passes away at 83

1 2 Guwahati: Assamese dramatist Hemanta Dutta, whose theatrical rendition of James Cameron's Titanic on the stage of the Kohinoor theatre group in 1998 brought a revolution to Assam's unique travelling theatre industry, breathed his last at 83 on Monday. Dutta achieved the seemingly impossible by recreating cinematic spectacles like helicopter landings and the sinking Atlantic on a modest mobile theatre stage while staging Titanic. The eminent cultural figure of the state, Dutta was undergoing treatment at Gauhati Medical College and Hospital. He was awarded the state's second-highest civilian award, Assam Sourav, earlier this year. Born in 1942 in Kharupetia, Darrang district, Dutta penned over 100 plays and composed more than 500 songs. He was widely admired for his innovative adaptations, including bringing James Cameron's Titanic to Assam's mobile theatre stage — an achievement that demonstrated his creative daring and commitment to popularising theatre. Director Tapan Lahkar, son of Ratan Lahkar — one of the pioneers of the mobile theatre industry — told TOI that Dutta's demise will create a vacuum in the mobile theatre industry as no one would be able to measure up. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The Most Beautiful Women In The World Undo "Dutta Khura (uncle) and Ratan Lahkar, founder of the Kohinoor mobile theatre group, were the two sides of the same coin. Working in tandem, they took the mobile theatre industry to the next level through dramatic and thematic innovation, besides introducing technical experiments on the stage," he added. Lahkar said staging Titanic in 1998 brought a revolution to the mobile theatre industry, as until then, nobody could imagine such technical work on a mobile theatre stage. "Besides Titanic, the plays Ramayana and Mahabharat were classic examples of their imagination, experiment, and dedication. There was no television in households when those plays were staged," he added. He said Dutta's notable works include the plays Eta Nasta Lorar Galpa, Path, Titanic, Hendur, Akakhor Dore Mon, and Mukti, and film songs for movies such as Hiya Diya Niya, Jiban Surabhi, and Nayak. Union minister Sarbananda Sonowal, while mourning Dutta's demise, said the state has lost a torch-bearer in the cultural field. Besides him, people from every section of the society mourned the demise of Dutta. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).

Before 50th b'day of ‘The Greatest Film Ever Made', Kolkata recalls its favourite ‘Sholay' moments that unite generations

1 2 3 4 5 6 Kolkata: It has been 50 years since Jai and Veeru took on Gabbar Singh in an epic battle that may have ended on-screen with the latter being vanquished, but it continues to enthral generations of cine-lovers. They remain enamoured by the drama, action, thrill, and sheer grandeur of 'Sholay', which hit the theatres on Aug 15, 1975. Initially written off as "another dacoit film with too much violence" by a section of critics, it turned out to be India's most successful film at the box office. Watching it multiple times became a ritual for millions across the country. They stood in night-long queues to buy tickets for the film, jostled and bargained with blackers, lied to parents to watch it on the sly, revelled in watching it with friends and families, and soaked in whatever happened around the screening, creating life-long memories for 'Sholay-addicts' who still swear by it. The magic of 'Sholay' hasn't curiously dwindled with time. It is still enjoyed by those who saw it half a century ago and millennials who have switched to OTT. Seventy-five-year-old Jawaharlal Yadav, then a resident of Chandernagore, watched the first show at Jyoti with two friends. He has vivid memories of the crowd spilling over at the theatre, the loud whistles at the dialogues, and the clatter of coins that were hurled at the screen after almost every scene. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like If the Cat Bites You, Here's What It Really Means. Weird Cat Behavior Explained Undo "We were at the balcony and could barely catch the dialogues due to the cheer and the chaos that broke out once the show started. It was clear that this film was going to make history, and it indeed came true. We returned to watch the film five times within the first two weeks," said Yadav, who is now a realtor in Kolkata.

"The aura of 'Sholay' has transcended generations. While my grandson hardly shares any common interest with me, 'Sholay' remains an exception," he said. Diotima Chattoraj, 33, now settled in Singapore with her husband Joyjit, watched 'Sholay' at a theatre there with their 10-year-old daughter Pritijita in June. "I first saw 'Sholay' as a nine-year-old at Menoka and wanted my daughter to do the same. Since it was running here, we rushed to catch the show. To my delight, my daughter loved it," she said. In Dec last year, Midnapore resident Bikash Sidhanta visited the location in Mysore where 'Sholay' was filmed. He learned about the spot from a taxi driver while arranging medical treatment for his wife. The Ramgarh station and the red hills are still there, he said. Now over 60, he watched the movie twice in Midnapore's Mahua and Aurora and once at Jyoti cinema in Kolkata. He still occasionally watches it on TV and has viewed it multiple times on YouTube. "During the lockdown, I discovered that Sholay's theme was inspired by the music director of the movie 'The Good, the Bad and the Ugly', which I then watched online. In Midnapore, I once stood in a long line to buy a front stall ticket for 75 paise, stepping on shoulders to reach the counter. I was 11 when the movie was released and have seen it many times since," he said. Sheikh Alam, a 62-year-old retired govt employee, echoed: "I have watched 'Sholay' 75 times in various theatres like Manoj Talkies, Paradise, Natraj, and Shankar. The dialogues and performances still move me," said Alam. Amitabh Bachchan Fan Club member Vijay Patodiya also watched the first show at Jyoti. "It was like a celebration, and the crowd went wild as Bachchan and Dharmendra exchanged fire with the dacoits chasing their train on horses. When Bachchan shot the last one, the cheer that followed blocked out all the dialogues for the next five minutes. I still get goosebumps thinking about it," he recalled.
