He further criticised Diljit's decision to collaborate with a Pakistani actress who once mocked India's strategy and stood against the country in times of crisis. 'Aur yeh jo ahankar ho gaya hai na stars ko, ki mera kya hai? Main toh gaa dunga.
Yeh bohot galat baat hai. Meri responsibility yeh jo log ticket deke Kumar Vishwas ko dekhne aaye hain, unke prati hai. Inke gharon mein toh gola aake padh raha hai, inka sipahi toh tirange mein lapet ke aa raha hai.
Aur uski mazaak banane waali ladki ke saath aap bol rahe hain mein uske saath film bana lunga, gaana bana lunga?' (This arrogance that the stars have now, thinking, 'What's it to me? I will just sing.' This is very wrong. Who made you? My responsibility is towards those people who bought tickets to come and see Kumar Vishwas. In their homes, shells are falling; their soldiers are returning wrapped in the tricolour. And you talk about making a film, making songs with the girl who mocks them?)

The backlash against Diljit Dosanjh intensified after the trailer of Sardaar Ji 3 was released. It showcased Pakistani actors including Hania Aamir, Nasir Chinyoti, Daniel Khawar, and Saleem Albela. The Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) submitted a request to the
Central Board of Film Certification
(CBFC) to refuse certification to the film due to the presence of Pakistani artists.

Maa Box Office Collection Day 1: Kajol's Horror film Opens With Rs 4 Crore
Last Updated: Kajol returns to the big screen with Maa, a mythological horror thriller directed by Vishal Furia. The film opened with Rs 4.15 crore on its first day. After a three-year break from the big screen, Kajol returned with Maa, a mythological horror thriller directed by Vishal Furia. The Day 1 numbers are finally in. According to early estimates by Sacnilk, Maa opened with a respectable Rs 4 crore on its first day. Not bad for a genre that's still pretty niche in Bollywood. As per early estimates, Maa earned Rs 4.15 crore on its opening day. The report also highlights that the film recorded an overall Hindi occupancy of 16.49 per cent on Friday. Morning shows started slow with just 8.23 per cent occupancy, but numbers picked up by the afternoon, reaching 20.08 per cent. The evening shows saw a further boost, clocking in at 21.16 per cent. A part of the review of Maa by News18 read, 'The concept and story have substance, but the film lacked largely because of its style of storytelling. Besides, the film also has a lot of stereotypes that could have been done without. Besides the exaggeration that the palace had a almost 30-feet tall Kali maa's stone carved statue, the way people from Chandrapur talk in the film, everything seems to be a cliche that all the Bengalis would be running away from. It only gets disappointing to see Ronit Roy, who plays a vital part in the film, deliver all his Hindi dialogues with such a heavy Bengali accent. A lot would argue that it is not how people from Bengal speak when they talk in Hindi." In Maa, a mythological horror thriller, Kajol takes on the powerful role of Ambika, a fearless mother who will stop at nothing to protect her daughter from dark, supernatural forces. The film blends myth and mystery, marking Kajol's first foray into the horror genre. Alongside her, the cast includes Indraneil Sengupta, Jitin Gulati, and Kherin Sharma. Directed by Vishal Furia, Maa is backed by producers Ajay Devgn and Jyoti Subbarayan. First Published: June 28, 2025, 11:20 IST

Sudhanshu Pandey Feels Ram Kapoor's Sexual Remarks ‘Reflect Mental Instability'
The controversy happened after Ram made some sexually inappropriate remarks against one of his team members during a press interaction. Ram Kapoor recently found himself in controversy after being dropped from the promotions of his web series, Mistry. It happened after the actor made some sexually inappropriate remarks against one of his team members during a press interaction. Now, TV actor Sudhanshu Pandey, known for his performance in shows like Anupamaa, has shared his reaction to Kapoor's controversial remark, calling them a reflection of 'mansik asthirta' (mental instability). Speaking to FilmiBeatz, Pandey said, 'Firstly, Ram's words are harming his reputation. Second, it takes mental instability to say such things, especially when referring to a woman nearby. A decent individual should constantly show respect for others, particularly ladies. If Ram has said anything like this, I sincerely apologise on behalf of our entire industry." Ram, on the other hand, speaking to ETimesTV, has accepted his statement and apologised for it. He said, 'Let me begin by stating that I did say everything for which I have been blamed. So, the truth is, I am guilty as charged. But here's what I have to say in my defence. When I am with people I am comfortable with, I tend to become my badass self. Everyone who knows me and has worked with me understands that is how I am, and I don't try to offend." He further stated that he was unaware of any distress he may have given the show's staff during the event. 'I didn't feel it once all day. We were laughing and joking. If I had gotten a hint that they were offended, I would have dealt with it immediately." On the work front, Ram's web series Mistry has now premiered on JioHotstar. The show also features Mona Singh and Abhiijeit Chitre in the leads. It is the official Hindi remake of the American superhit series, Monk. Coming back to Sudhanshu, he is currently winning hearts with his performance in the reality show, The Traitors, which is streaming on Prime Video. Hosted by Karan Johar, the other remaining contestants of the show include Purav Jha, Apoorva Mukhija, Harsh Gujral, Uorfi Javed, Nikita Luther and Jasmine Bhasin. The grand finale episode will be available to watch on Thursday, July 3, 2025, on Prime Video at 8:00 PM. First Published:
