In the latest interview, Ishaan Khatter shared that he fought with the makers over shirtless scenes in Netflix's The Royals read more Ishaan Khatter was seen flexing his washboard abs as he went shirtless in his latest Netflix outing The Royals, where he went shirtless quite a few times. A certain section even called it objectifying the character. In the latest interview, the actor shared that he fought with the makers over shirtless scenes. 'It's that kind of character… jo shirt nahi pehenta hai. Usko nahi jamta (He doesn't like wearing a shirt, as simple as that). To be honest, now it will look like… but since I had committed, I went for it, but I did fight with them on certain days that 'Iss scene mein toh shirt pehen sakta hain. Iss scene mein kya zarurat hain (He can wear a shirt in this scene. It doesn't require him to be shirtless)!' They had very interesting ways to put this into the script, like I can put on a blanket while sleeping… but I had fun doing it,' Ishaan told Mashable India. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The actor also revealed how he lost muscle mass for homebound and shared, ''You got to lose the muscles!' I was like, yeah, I can do that, it is easier for me to look like that, and he (director Neeraj Ghaywan) was like, 'No, no.. Ishaan please! I don't want to see a single sinew on your body!' I had to lose about 8-10 kilos again!' Talking about The Royals, the show garnered mixed reviews from the audience. It also featured Bhumi Pednekar, Zeenat Aman, Dino Morea, Chunky Panday, Sakshi Tanwar, Vihaan Samat, Kavya Trehan, Jagdish Rajpurohit, Lisa Mishra, Nora Fatehi and others in prominent roles.

Jaat on OTT: Sunny Deol disappoints fans with film ‘as painful as Sikandar'
Jaat on OTT: Sunny Deol and Randeep Hooda's Jaat received a tepid response at the box office, and its OTT release hasn't exactly set the digital world ablaze either. The film is facing harsh criticism for its unrealistic storyline, with some even finding it as underwhelming as Salman Khan's Sikandar. Also read: Sunny Deol was roped in for Jaat after this Tollywood actor declined it, reveals director The action thriller landed on Netflix on June 5, and its release was met with a mixed response. Several people took to social media to express their frustration, with many scratching their heads over the film's plot and over-the-top action. 'Watching #JaatOnNetflix 45 mins into it my 8yr old says the person who made this movie is the dumbest guy in the world,' shared one disappointed viewer. One wrote, 'Latest proof that the saviour genre is dead. Watching it was as painful as #Sikandar. Barely a Bollywood movie, a typical but outdated Tollywood action entertainer with 90% south crew & cast'. Another social media user shared, 'Finished watching Jaat. One of the most disappointing films I've seen in a long time. Not a single scene stood out and there was nothing engaging. Definitely didn't work for me'. However, some appreciated Randeep's performance. '#RandeepHooda as Ranatunga is one of the best villain arc written in recent times,' one wrote, with one mentioning, 'A rare gem #jaatonnetflix showcases how a villain should be portrayed.. Opposite a giant called #SUNNYDEOL as! Brigadier Baldev Pratap Singh. Ruling people's heart #JAAT'. 'Jaat movie is actually good. Better than many masala movies and biggies which got success recently. Sunny Deol is slowly coming back to his form,' read one comment. "#JAAT is a decent regular south commercial film, highly running on mass elements & #GopichandMalineni done it again just like he promised 'MASS FEAST'... One time watch,' shared one. Jaat revolves around a mysterious man, played by Sunny, who chances upon a small village in Andhra Pradesh being oppressed by Ranatunga. The film also stars Randeep Hooda, Regina Cassandra, Saiyami Kher, Jagapathi Babu, Ramya Krishnan, Vineet Kumar Singh, Prashant Bajaj, Zarina Wahab, P Ravi Shankar and Babloo Prithiveeraj. It received mixed reviews, with some liking the over-the-top action while others being disappointed with the screenplay. At the time of the release, Jaat recently ran into controversy over a scene. In the film, the antagonist, Ranatunga, played by Randeep Hooda, threatens people inside a church with violence. He also stands in front of a crucifix while doing so. Though the makers blurred all religious imagery in the scene, the Christian community has called for a ban on the film. A video also showed protestors raising slogans of 'Randeep Hooda murdabad' for hurting religious sentiments. Despite lukewarm performance, the film will be back with Jaat 2, with Sunny reprising his role. Gopichand Malineni will also return to helm the sequel.

Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone starrer romantic film 'Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani' is surely one of the best rom-coms in Bollywood. Want to know a truvia about tis superhit film? Read more. Model-actor Muzammil Ibrahim has revealed in a recent interview that director Ayan Mukerji originally envisioned him in the 2013 hit film Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani. According to Muzammil, Ayan personally told him that he was writing the story with him in mind, particularly for the role that later went to Aditya Roy Kapur. A Close Bond and a Missed Role In a chat with Siddharth Kannan, Muzammil recounted how director Kiran Rao introduced him to Ayan after being impressed by his performance in Dhokha (2007). 'Ayan liked me a lot. He told me he was writing Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani keeping me in mind,' Muzammil claimed. He clarified that his past relationship with Deepika Padukone, who starred in the film opposite Ranbir Kapoor, had nothing to do with the casting decision. In fact, he says he endorsed Deepika's involvement. 'Ayan would often discuss casting options with me, like whether to go with Deepika or Katrina. I told him Deepika was the right choice.' Casting Agents Changed the Course According to Muzammil, the project's direction shifted after casting agents entered the picture. He believes they disrupted the communication between him and Ayan, leading to the missed opportunity. 'Ayan told me he'd give me the script. But once the casting agents came in, they really messed things up. They had their own agendas,' Muzammil alleged. He also confessed to hesitating at the time, unsure whether to follow up with Ayan. 'I thought maybe my role was too small, or that Ranbir and Ayan's friendship might have influenced things,' he added. Believes His Debut Performance Outshone Ranbir's Muzammil also shared that he believed his performance in 'Dhokha' was stronger than Ranbir Kapoor's debut in 'Saawariya', both released in 2007. Reflecting on what could have been a turning point in his career, Muzammil said, 'Maybe I should have spoken up. But back then, I didn't know how to navigate the politics.'
