Jackson Wang in India, idol meets up with Hrithik Roshan , Adarsh Gourav and more
On his trip to India, Jackson has already managed to spend time with Hrithik Roshan and his family in the actor's house and has also managed to meet up with actor Adarsh Gourav, well known for his role in 'Superboys of Malegaon'.
In an interview with Pinkvilla, the sensational singer opened up about his new music and upcoming album 'MAGIC MAN 2' and how he has been feeling while travelling and performing in India.
He also shared how he and Diljit created their collaborative project as well, leaving everyone shocked.
How did 'BUCK' happen?
Jackson Wang shared more on how he and Diljit Dosanjh came to know of one another. The two had first met back in 2023 when they performed at the Coachella festival that year. The two had bumped into each other backstage and had hung out together.
At the time, Dosanjh and Wang had conspired to come up with a collaborative project that originally ended up getting lost in the time zone amid busy and demanding schedules.
'BUCK' came to be after Wang took a chance and just randomly DM'ed Diljit out of the blue. He bluntly put out the question of whether Dosanjh would want to feature on his album, and lo and behold, 'BUCK' was born.
On working as a solo artist and his reunion with GOT7
Jackson Wang started in the industry as part of the K-pop boy group GOT7. While all of the members have mainly been focusing on their solo careers, they all got together to perform recently this year in Thailand. While talking about the reunion, the idol shared that 'It's like going back to a label. I feel so happy. I don't need to care about anything; I had my own opinion [on songs and other aspects], but it's not about me; it's about us!'
He continued sharing that '[When I'm performing with GOT7] I just need to focus on practising hard and focus on being able to do my job in the most efficient way possible.'

Aamir Khan To Release Sitaare Zameen Par In Over 3,000 Screens In India
Last Updated: As per the latest report, Aamir Khan is determined to keep the film exclusively for theatrical release. Aamir Khan's upcoming film Sitare Zameen Par, directed by RS Prasanna, has generated significant buzz among movie enthusiasts. The film delves into powerful themes of inclusion, empathy and resilience, told through the inspiring stories of children with special abilities. Determined to make the film a success, Aamir Khan is going all out with its release strategy. According to recent reports, the actor plans to launch the film across approximately 3,000 screens nationwide. According to a report by Pinkvilla, Aamir Khan and his distribution team initially planned to release Sitare Zameen Par on 1,000 to 1,500 screens across India, with the intention of expanding based on audience demand over the opening weekend. However, the strategy has since evolved into a full-scale nationwide release. As per sources cited by the portal, several single-screen theatre owners and non-national multiplex chains approached Aamir Khan, expressing interest in screening the film at their venues starting June 20. A source known to the entertainment portal said, 'Though the genre has its limitations in the post-pandemic, the exhibitors are confident that the Aamir Khan factor, coupled with strong content, will draw audiences in larger numbers over the weekend. The exhibitor support for Sitaare Zameen Par is also coming from the 'No OTT' stance taken by Aamir Khan. The film will now release on 3000 to 3500 screens all across the country." Moreover, with Sitaare Zameen Par, Aamir is making a game-changing move by refusing to sell the OTT rights to any platform, despite repeated offers. According to sources, the actor is determined to keep the film exclusively for theatrical release. Initially developed in collaboration with Sony Pictures, the film eventually became a solo venture for Aamir after the studio expressed reservations about the big-screen-only strategy. In response, Aamir reportedly bought back full control of the project, ensuring complete creative and distribution authority. Sitaare Zameen Par is a sports comedy-drama starring Aamir Khan alongside Genelia Deshmukh. The film is described as a spiritual sequel to Khan's 2007 critically acclaimed Taare Zameen Par and is an official remake of the Spanish film Champions. The movie also marks the Hindi film debut of several newcomers, including Aroush Datta, Gopi Krishna Varma, Samvit Desai, Vedant Sharma, Ayush Bhansali, Ashish Pendse, Rishi Shahani, Rishabh Jain, Naman Mishra, and Simran Mangeshkar.
