Paresh Rawal compares Salman Khan and Aamir Khan: 'Salman hawa ka jhoka hai...'
The Hera Pheri actor praised both actors for their unique approach to the characters and revealed how both have very contrasting working styles. Paresh Rawal mentioned that Salman Khan flows with ease and doesn't take much time to get into the character. He said, "Salman understands a scene on a gut level. He is such a charming fellow. On screen, he is magic. When he comes on set, he doesn't have to work too hard. He just flows with it.'
The 70-year-old underlined that Aamir Khan works a lot on his characters and invests considerable time to get into the depth, while Salman Khan is like a breeze. 'Aamir has to work around and know things in depth and detail. That is why Aamir sahab thoda time lete hai (that is why Aamir takes more time while shooting). Meanwhile, Salman is hawa ka jhoka, kab aaya, udake ke le gaya, pata bhi nahi chalta (Salman is like breeze, you don't even realise when he arrives and sweeps everything away with him),' added Paresh Rawal.

Ragini Khanna admits a Koffee With Karan episode with Govinda would be ‘embarrassing but iconic': 'It would be a very discomforting...'
Ragini Khanna feels appearing on 'Koffee With Karan' with Govinda would be awkward. She cites their formal relationship as a reason. She acknowledges the episode would be entertaining. Ragini also addressed assumptions about her career due to Govinda's fame. She highlighted industry double standards. 'Koffee With Karan' is a popular celebrity talk show. What happens when you mix family ties with Karan Johar 's infamous couch? According to Ragini Khanna—plenty of awkwardness and iconic moments. The television star recently admitted that while she'd love to appear on Koffee With Karan alongside her uncle, Govinda , the episode would likely be 'embarrassing' and 'discomforting' due to their formal relationship. Still, she believes their contrasting personalities would make it unmissable content. Too formal for the couch When asked whether she'd rather take on a dance challenge with Govinda or appear on Koffee With Karan alongside him, Ragini Khanna leaned toward the latter—but with a twist. In conversation with Bollywood Bubble, she admitted that the idea of sharing the couch with her uncle would be extremely awkward and far from their usual dynamic, which is formal and reserved. Describing their relationship as more traditional and respectful, she felt the personal and probing questions typical of the show would make the episode deeply discomforting and embarrassing for both. Still, she joked, it would likely make for entertaining content, given Govinda's knack for reading between the lines. Earlier in an interview with Siddharth Kanan, Ragini slammed the assumption that being related to Govinda gave her an advantage in the industry. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Elegant New Scooters For Seniors In 2024: The Prices May Surprise You Mobility Scooter | Search Ads Learn More Undo She pointed out that while Govinda is a huge star, she isn't his daughter and doesn't enjoy the same privileges. Expressing affection for his children, Tina (Narmada) and Yashvardan Ahuja, she said they are like friends to her—but highlighted a clear double standard in the industry. According to Ragini, if someone suggested Tina or Yash take up television roles, they probably wouldn't, but someone like her would be expected to. She added that this mindset needs to change, questioning why television is still viewed as a step down from films. The show that gets everyone talking Koffee With Karan is a popular celebrity talk show hosted by filmmaker and TV personality Karan Johar.

Salman Khan's Sikandar Failed As Tamil Director Didn't Understand Hindi Script: 'Was Not Exactly Sure'
The filmmaker said he wasn't exactly sure what the script said as it was in Hindi. Salman Khan's Sikandar was a dud at the box office. The film had several strengths: Salman Khan's box office pull, Rashmika Mandanna's fanbase and AR Murugadoss's proven Bollywood track record. Despite this, Sikandar had an underwhelming run at the box office. Now, the filmmaker has blamed it on his inability to understand Hindi, and thus, not fully knowing 'what is happening' in the film. AR Murugadoss recently said, 'When we make films in our mother tongue, it gives us strength. We know what is happening here. Today, there's a trend going and suddenly the audience gets connected with that trend. When we shift language, we don't know what the youngsters are enjoying in that language. All we need is a script to believe it." He further explained, 'For once, I can take up Telugu films, but Hindi may not work for us because after we write the script, they translate it into English. Then it is again translated into Hindi." He added, 'We can only guess what they are saying, but we are not exactly sure about what is happening. When you make a film in an unknown language and place, it feels like you are handicapped. It is like you don't have hands. I strongly believe our strength depends on where and which culture we come from." This has come as a shock to the filmmaker's fans, as his previous Hindi films both had good box office runs. The filmmaker is behind Akshay Kumar's Holiday: A Soldier Is Never Off Duty and Aamir Khan's Ghajini. Both films opened to largely positive reviews, with Ghajini even becoming a blockbuster hit. As for Sikandar, critics responded harshly—common criticisms included weak screenplay, uninspired direction, and flat performances. Despite high anticipation, the film failed to deliver the energy and charisma seen in Salman Khan's earlier hits. In the film, Salman plays Sanjay 'Sikandar" Rajkot, a man driven to protect three organ recipients after the death of his wife (played by Rashmika Mandanna). Rashmika plays Saisri, whose tragic storyline catalyses his transformation into a defender of the oppressed against a corrupt politician. Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
