Big B shares Rs 20 Sholay ticket from 1975, thinks that's the cost of soft drink now

Amitabh Bachchan, known for his decades-long tradition of greeting fans every Sunday outside his Juhu house, continued the ritual on July 27. The megastar later shared glimpses of the meet on his blog, along with a heartfelt note on creativity, excess, and a preserved movie ticket from the 1975 classic 'Sholay', priced at just Rs photos of himself waving to the crowd, the actor reflected on the quiet hours of the night and their link to creativity. 'It be the silence of the hour when the awakening occurs... mysterious is it not... the waken be the ideal for the late hour...' he wrote. Discussing inspiration amidst chaos, he added, 'Seemingly unendorsed opinion or expression, but strangely in the midst of cacophony, the creative or the mind that thinks, excels... at times the best'advertisementIn the same post, Bachchan expressed thoughts on material excess and mental clutter, stating, 'Excess is a cess that is desired to be seized... and the regret in the other is the pain of not doing the 'do'...' What stood out for fans, however, was a rare piece of momento - a 'Sholay' ticket, still in his possession after nearly five decades. "The Sholay ticket.. kept and preserved, just defeated whatever has been expressed a few lines above... 20!! the price.. !!!!!?? I am told that is the price of an aerated drink in theatre halls nowadays... is that a fact??(sic)," he wrote, reflecting on how much has changed since Big B jokingly compared the old ticket price to that of a soft drink at theatres today, actual prices at multiplexes can range from Rs 180 to Rs 500 for a single cup. Released in 1975, Ramesh Sippy's 'Sholay' is considered one of the greatest films in Indian cinema. It will complete 50 years this August. The ensemble cast included Dharmendra, Hema Malini, Amjad Khan, Jaya Bachchan, and Sanjeev Kumar. The film held the title of highest-grossing Indian film until it was surpassed by 'Hum Aapke Hain Koun..!' in the work front, Amitabh recently won acclaim for his role as Ashwatthama in 'Kalki 2898 AD', which also starred Prabhas, Deepika Padukone, and Kamal Haasan.

Pawan Kalyan's Hari Hara Veera Mallu trimmed, poor VFX scenes removed

The makers of 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu', featuring Pawan Kalyan, have edited the film significantly after a lukewarm initial response. The film, which is jointly helmed by Krish Jagarlamudi and Jyothi Krisna, has undergone trimming to enhance the viewing experience. This decision comes five days after the film's release. It has raked in Rs 75 crore nett at the domestic box Hara Veera Mallu' team silently made the changes after middling reviews and passed them to the theatres. The climax was notably tightened, while several face-off moments and the elaborate cyclone sequences, which had poor VFX, were omitted. The revised ending now closes with Bobby Deol's line, "Aandhi Vachesindhi (Storm is coming)."The 'flag scene,' featuring a distorted visual of Pawan Kalyan's face, was removed due to negative attention. Additionally, an action sequence involving Pawan Kalyan firing arrows was subtly modified for stronger impact. Another scene trimming occurred post-interval, where sequences involving a horse ride along a cliff's edge were shortened to increase pace and retain audience engagement. Despite the film's star power, initial bookings remained modest. With the revised version now screening, there is hope that these changes could attract more cinema-goers. Viewers noted that the edits improved the pacing and overall appeal of the team behind 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu' took swift action to address the feedback. Whether these changes will successfully draw larger crowds remains to be seen. The trimmed version has been screening in theatres since the film continues its run in cinemas, the effectiveness of these edits in improving viewer reception will be closely monitored. The response over the coming days will indicate whether the adjustments have revitalised audience interest in Pawan Kalyan's project.- EndsTrending Reel
