Does SRK really throws tantrums on set? Heres what he says
Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], August 17 (ANI): Does Shah Rukh Khan throw tantrums on set? Fans were eager to find out during his latest "Ask SRK" session. The superstar addressed the question with his trademark humour, leaving no room for doubt about his on-set behaviour. On Saturday evening, the superstar surprised everyone by hosting a fresh Q&A session after a long break. During the chat, he answered questions about his upcoming film 'King,' and even gave a soft launch to his son Aryan Khan's directorial debut series 'The Ba***ds of Bollywood.' When asked if he throws tantrums on sets, SRK dismissed the idea with his trademark humour. "Nobody allows me to throw tantrums on sets," he wrote. Adding a cheeky twist, he continued, "Now on King even less the director is so too strict and organised." King is being directed by Siddharth Anand, who earlier helmed Pathaan. Another fan asked about the release of 'King.' SRK replied with his usual wit: "Did some good shoot... starting soon again. Only leg shots, then moving to the upper body... Insha Allah, it will be done fast. @justSidAnand is working hard to finish." During the same Q&A session, a fan asked when they could see something from Aryan's series. Shah Rukh playfully responded, "So many people are asking, so I have to tell Netflix... Beta show bana raha hai, Baap sirf wait kar raha hai... @NetflixIndia, Tum kya kar rahe ho??!!" to which Netflix responded that the first look of Aryan Khan's show would be unveiled on August 17. Meanwhile, Shah Rukh recently won his first-ever National Film Award. The actor was honoured with the Best Actor award at the 71st National Film Awards for his powerful performance in 'Jawan'. SRK made his highly anticipated return to the big screen in January 2023 after a four-year hiatus with YRF's 'Pathaan,' which shattered box-office records and attracted a massive audience. Following the success of 'Pathaan,' SRK gave fans another blockbuster with Jawan, which not only delighted movie buffs but also earned him his first National Award. (ANI)

Thousands throng Punes Lal Mahal Chowk for unique DJ-free Dahi Handi
Pune (Maharashtra) [India], August 17 (ANI): The historic Lal Mahal Chowk in Pune turned into a sea of devotees and Govindas on Saturday night as thousands gathered for a unique, first-of-its-kind DJ-free Dahi Handi. The event was organised by the Punit Balan Group along with 26 leading Ganesh mandals of Pune City, replacing blaring DJs with traditional dhol-tasha, lezim, Prabhat band, Mumbai's Worli Beats and the devotional Shiv Mahakal troupe from Ujjain. The celebration aimed to revive the festival's cultural essence. Govinda troupes, including Radhekrishna, which successfully broke the handi with an eight-tier human pyramid, while several others, like Vande Mataram, Natraj, Mhasoba, Bhoiraj and Shivkanya (Mumbai), also participated in the celebration with enthusiasm. Festival head and trustee of the Shrimant Bhausaheb Rangari Ganesh Mandal, Punit Balan, said," I thank Punekars for their overwhelming response to the DJ-free Dahi Handi. The decision was taken to combine authenticity with safety. Dahi Handi represents faith, vitality and togetherness." 'This year, we proved you can celebrate with the same energy without a blaring DJ sound. It also reduced noise pollution, eased police pressure, avoided traffic snarls and gave employment to traditional instrumentalists," he said. The event was marked by extensive safety measures, medical support and streamlined crowd control to ensure smooth celebrations. Actor-director Pravin Tarde, actor Hardik Joshi and Bigg Boss Marathi fame Irina were among the celebrities present. Organisers said the successful DJ-free celebration has set a new cultural precedent in Maharashtra, showing that Pune's festive spirit thrives when tradition blends with thoughtful year, Shri Krishna Janmashtami was celebrated traditionally with great festive fervour in Pune. Dancing to the energetic beats of traditional dhol-tasha and the popular Worli beats of banjo from Mumbai, organised by Punit Balan Group, over 25 Ganesh Mandals across the city came together for a DJ-free event this year.
