Shah Rukh Khan refused to pull up Abhishek Bachchan, Vivan Shah despite Farah Khan's complaint: ‘Inke baap Amitabh Bachchan, Naseeruddin Shah inhe nahi sikha paaye toh…'
Shah Rukh Khan shared the screen space with Abhishek Bachchan and Vivaan Shah, son of Amitabh Bachchan and Naseeruddin Shah, respectively, in Farah Khan's film Happy New Year. Farah, known to be a taskmaster, apparently had a tough time with Abhishek and Vivaan on the sets, and even complained to the film's lead and producer, Shah Rukh. An old video from Shah Rukh, Farah, Abhishek and Vivaan's visit to the hit quiz show Kaun Banega Crorepati has SRK sharing about the incident and what refrained him from pulling up the two actors post Farah's complaint.
In 2014, during the Happy New Year 's promotions, the cast visited the Kaun Banega Crorepati set. An old video shared online has Shah Rukh Khan reminiscing about an incident when filmmaker Farah Khan requested him to reprimand Abhishek Bachchan and Vivaan Shah.
SRK told Amitabh Bachchan, ' Farah kabhi complain nhi karti as Farah khudh hin bht tandarust hai. Sab ko tik kar leti hai set ke upar (Farah never complains. Farah herself is very healthy. She takes care of everything on her own on the set).'
' Ek baar isne (Farah) mujhe bahut complain kiya. Isne kaha ki Abhishek aur Vivaan jo hai dono ke dono bahut pareshan kar rahe hain, distracted rehte hain, baat cheet kar rahe hain, tang kar rahe hain. Baar baar meri photo leke Twitter pe daal rahe hain. Bahut tang karte hain Abhishek aur Vivaan isko, toh tum jaake unse baat karo. (Once she complained to me that Abhishek and Vivaan are troubling her, they are distracted, keep chatting, take her pictures and upload them on Twitter. They irritate me a lot so you go and talk to them),' added SRK
SRK added, ' Maine kaha nahi Farah bacche hai yaar, aese thode hi na hota hai yaar, ho jayega (It's ok they are children). 'No, today I'm very angry. You go and talk'. Toh Sir, main bada aese kamar kas k pahuch gaya. Main bolne ko shuru hua phir mujhe dimaag m aya ki Abhishek Bachchan ke jo daddy hai woh Mr Amitabh Bachchan hai. Phir aya ki Vivaan ke jo daddy hai woh Mr Naseeruddin Shah hai. Phir mere dimaag me aya ki agar inke baap inko nahi sikha sake toh main kya sikhaunga (I said Farah they are just kids, it's not like that, it will be fine. But she said, 'No, today I'm very angry. You go and talk to them.' So sir, I went there with determination… I started to speak, and then it hit me that Abhishek Bachchan's father is Mr. Amitabh Bachchan. Then I realized that Vivaan's father is Mr Naseeruddin Shah. And then it struck me that if their fathers couldn't teach them, what could I teach them)?'

The Bengal Files teaser out: Vivek Agnihotri shows horrors of communal violence; fans say 'it you hits like a bomb'
Filmmaker Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri dropped the teaser of his latest film The Bengal Files, on Thursday. Originally titled The Delhi Files: The Bengal Chapter, the teaser has garnered significant attention for its bold exploration of a lesser-known chapter in Indian history. The film marks the final part of the trilogy by the two-time National Award-winning filmmaker. (Also read: Vivek Agnihotri reveals new name of his film, The Delhi Files. Here's what we know about the title change) Vivek took to X (formerly known as Twitter) and released the teaser of his much-awaited film. In the caption, he wrote, 'PRESENTING: From the makers of The Kashmir Files & The Tashkent Files: THE BENGAL FILES – Teaser Out Now. If Kashmir hurt you, Bengal will haunt you. In cinemas on 05 September 2025.' The teaser opens with a sombre voice declaring, "Main ek Kashmiri Pandit hoon, isliye yakeen ke saath keh sakta hoon ki Bengal ek dusra Kashmir banta ja raha hai" (I am a Kashmiri Pandit, and therefore, I can say with full confidence that Bengal is turning into another Kashmir). This statement immediately sets a tone of urgency and foreboding, hinting at the film's exploration of communal tensions and their repercussions. The teaser then introduces all the characters in the film. The film explores historical events like Direct Action Day and the Noakhali riots, which took place in undivided Bengal in the 1940s. As soon as the teaser dropped, fans started reacting on social media. One user wrote, "It hits like a Bomb, shaken my soul to the core." Another user declared, "Waiting for this one!" Another fan said, "For the first time, real heroes of Bengal like Gopal Patha (Mukherjee) are shown to the world! Pulsating! Looking forward!" The decision to rename the film from The Delhi Files to The Bengal Files was influenced by public sentiment. Director Vivek Agnihotri explained that while the film delves into events in Bengal, the initial title aimed to highlight the political decisions made in Delhi that impacted the region. However, after conducting a poll where 99% of respondents favoured the title change, the filmmakers decided to rebrand the film to better align with its content and audience expectations. Vivek Agnihotri wrote the script, and Abhishek Agarwal and Pallavi Joshi produced it. The film stars Mithun Chakraborty, Pallavi Joshi, Anupam Kher, and Darshan Kumar in pivotal roles. It is part of Vivek Agnihotri's Files trilogy, which includes The Kashmir Files and The Tashkent Files. The film will arrive in theatres on 5 September 2025.
