The filmmaker duo in an interview with Hindi Rush, disclosed how they received backlash from Central Board of Film Certification stating that they have disturbed the moral fibre of the nation after that video came out. They further added how Salman Khan also called them to stop doing such "sexy" videos.
Vinay in the interview said, "A big actor called us to his house, and he told us, 'Main tumhe samjha raha hoon Radhika-Vinay, yeh jo sexy kaam hai kam kiya karo, acha nahi hota (I'm trying to make you understand, don't do such sexy songs, it doesn't look good)'. He just said, 'You've got nice, pure minds'." When asked who it was, they named Salman Khan.
The filmmakers said that back then, they had hit a creative road block while doing only cute videos and thought of branching out which resulted in their remix era.
'We were doing cute and innocent songs with Falguni Pathak. We were doing songs with ghazals with Jagjit Singh and Pankaj Udhas. As creative people, musically we needed some change. One day, we went to Salman Khan's house. He was exercising while listening to a Jhankaar Beats remix of a Kishore Kumar song. An idea sparked, and that's what began the remix trend in India. We made Kaliyon Ka Chaman, Kaanta Laga, Chadti Jawani… The sound organically reminds you of a nightclub, to a sensual visualisation,' Vinay said.
After the success of their Sanam Teri Kasam re-release in theatres, the director duo are planning to make a sequel to the film. While they are certain to bring back Harshvardhan Rane from the original cast, they have categorically denied to cast Pakistani actor Mawra Hocane due to ongoing tensions between India and Pakistan.

'Amitabh Bachchan was rude to me when I met him second time,' says 'Bhabhiji Ghar Pe Hai' actor Saanand Verma: 'Pehli baar mile toh lagaa Abhishek Bachchan main hi hu'
Actor Saanand Verma known for playing Saxena in the popular show 'Bhabhiji Ghar Pe Hai' had once done a shoot for 'Kaun Banega Crorepati' with Amitabh Bachchan . He also got the opportunity to work with the legendary actor for a commercial shoot again. In a recent interview, he revealed that he's also interacted with many other stars like Jeetendra, but the only time he felt that superstar aura was when he shot with Bachchan. He recalled how contradictory both his meetings were with the superstar. He revealed that during their first encounter, he chatted with Big B for three hours and he was so nice to him. Verma said in an interview with Hindi Rush, "Mujhe unka aura feel hua when I first met him. Second time mila toh woh rude the kaafi. Pehli baar mila toh lagaa Abhishek Bachchan main hi hu. Unka beta main hi hu. (I felt his aura when I met him first. During our second interaction, he was pretty rude but when I met him for the first time, I felt like I was only Abhishek Bachchan. He spoke to me like I was his son)," laughed Verma. He further elaborated on what had happened during their second interaction. "We were shooting for an ad and I went up to him and said, 'Main bohot zyada bhagyashaali mehsoos karta hu joh aapke saath dobara kaam karne ka mauka mila.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Buy Brass Idols - Handmade Brass Statues for Home & Gifting Luxeartisanship Buy Now Undo Toh unhone dekha hi nahi meri taraf.

(I told him, 'I'm quite lucky to work with you for the second time' but he didn't reply, he kept looking at the painting. He then responded, 'May God give you the opportunity even for the third time.'" Verma added he's not complaining about Bachchan, but just pointing out the contradiction in his behaviour during both the meets. He added, "I'm talking about the contradiction. Ek baar kuch zarurat se zyada hi dhyaan diya unhone and doosri baar ignore maar diya. Yeh contrast hai. Yeh ullekhniya tha. Mujhe Amitjee se shikayat nahi hai. Main unki respect karta hoon bohot and unke jaisa kalaakaar koi hua nahi hai. Par yahan koi dost nahi hai. (The first time, he paid more attention to me than required and the second time he just ignored me. I have no complaints with him. I respect him immensely and one will never ever see an artist like him again but all I'm saying is, nobody is a friend here)." Saanand further said that Paresh Rawal said something very right recently in an interview that when you're working with someone, they are colleagues, not friends. Rawal had said that reflecting upon his statement about Akshay Kumar where he called him a colleague and not a friend.

Amitabh Bachchan Was 'Very Rude, Didn't Even Look At Me': Bhabi Ji Ghar Par Hain Actor Recalls
Last Updated: When Saanand Verma first worked with Amitabh Bachchan, he was treated like a "son". However, their second time working together was starkly different. Actor Saanand Verma grew immensely popular after he starred in the superhit TV show, Bhabi Ji Ghar Par Hain. Despite having worked with the best actors in the Indian entertainment industry, he only felt starstruck in front of one actor- Amitabh Bachchan. When Verma first worked with Bachchan, the veteran actor treated him like a 'son". However, their second time working together was starkly different. Verma said Bachchan was rude to him during the shoot. In a recent chat with Hindi Rush, Saanand Verma opened up about his contrasting experience with Amitabh Bachchan. He said, 'I have spoken to many stars, but I didn't think much about them. But I felt Amitabh Bachchan's aura when I was shooting Kaun Banega Crorepati's promo. The first time I met him… he was like… I felt like I am Abhishek Bachchan. I felt like I am his son. We spoke for three hours." His second time was not as great. Recalling his cold interaction, he said, 'However, the second time I met him to shoot an advertisement, he was very rude." 'After completing the shoot, I went and told him, 'I consider myself very fortunate to be able to work with you twice.' But he didn't even look at me, he kept staring at a painting and said, 'Bhagwan kare apko tibara mile (May God give you a third chance also),'" he said. Despite this coldness, Verma maintains that he still has immense respect for the veteran actor. He said, 'He gave me a lot of attention the first time and ignored me completely the second time, that contrast was noticeable. I love and respect Amit ji a lot. I don't think there is another actor like him in Hindi film industry but yes nobody is friends in the film industry." Meanwhile, Amitabh Bachchan is gearing up for the shoot for Kalki 2. Directed by Nag Ashwin and also starring Prabhas, Deepika Padukone and Kamal Haasan, the sequel is expected to go on floors this year. He also has the Indian remake of The Intern with Deepika Padukone in his kitty. Amitabh Bachchan will also be seen in Brahmastra Part 2. First Published: June 07, 2025, 13:53 IST

‘Indian Kanye West': Badshah's ‘I'd rather make babies with her' comment for Dua Lipa irks the internet
Singer and rapper Badshah recently made headlines for his drastic weight loss. He's once again in the spotlight—not for his music, but for his comment about Dua Lipa. The rapper's response to a fan's question about a potential collaboration with the global pop star has sparked backlash online. (Also Read: Hania Aamir cheers for Badshah amid calls to boycott Pakistani talent following Pahalgam terror attack) On Friday, Badshah took to X (formerly Twitter) and wrote, 'Dua Lipa ❤️.' A fan then asked if he was making a track with the singer, to which Badshah replied, 'I'd rather make babies with her, bro.' While some fans found his remark hilarious and praised his confidence, others called it inappropriate and tone-deaf. A Reddit user shared his tweets on the platform and wrote, 'Badshah sir, ye kaisi Dua?' Another commented, 'WHAT'S WITH THIS 'HAVE BABIES' JOKE? How can you say that and not be so disgusted with yourself you want to bathe!' A third user said, 'EWWWWW, what a creep. Women really can't catch a break online or in real life.' Others added, 'Indian Kanye West,' 'This is disgusting,' and 'This is too much.' Some fans, however, made light of the comment. Badshah recently raised eyebrows with his dramatic weight loss transformation. Some praised his new look, and others compared him to AP Dhillon. In 2022, he opened up about his weight loss journey during an appearance on Shilpa Shetty Kundra's show. He said, 'I had many reasons for losing weight. We did no shows during the lockdown, and when live performances resumed, I realised I didn't have the stamina. My work requires me to be active for 120 minutes or so when performing on stage. I started panting in just 15 minutes. As a performer, I have to give my best. That was a major reason.' Meanwhile, Badshah is now gearing up for his The Un-Finished Tour in the US. The tour kicks off with a show in Virginia on September 5, followed by performances in New Jersey, the Bay Area, Seattle, and Dallas, before concluding on September 20 at Now Arena in Chicago.
