Shah Rukh Khan says, 'National Award ek haath se utha sakta hu,' as he opens up on his injury, reveals it was a big surgery, will take time to recover
is finally stepping into the world of filmmaking with his much-talked-about directorial debut 'Ba**ds of Bollywood'. To mark the beginning of this new journey, the makers hosted an elaborate preview event where none other than
Shah Rukh Khan
himself turned up in full support of his son.
The superstar, however, arrived with his arm in a sling — instantly sparking curiosity among those present. Never one to miss a chance at humour, SRK addressed it with his signature charm. He told the media, 'Aap log journalist hain toh aapke dil mein bahut saare sawal uth rahe honge, toh main pehle hi jawab de deta hoon. Mere haath ko kya hua hai — toh mere shoulder mein chot lag gayi thi, chhoti si surgery hui, actually thodi badi thi.
Recovery mein mujhe 1-2 mahine lagenge. Lekin
National Award
uthane ke liye mera ek hi haath kaafi hai. Actually, zyada tar cheezein main ek haath se kar leta hoon, par bas ek cheez mein dusre haath ki kami mehsoos hoti hai — aap sabka pyaar batorne mein.'
For those not in the know, Shah Rukh won his first ever National Award in 33 years. This one was for 'Jawan' at the 71st National Awards which were announced recently. Fans were elalated and so was the actor.

He shared his award with Vikrant Massey who won it for '12th Fail'.
His lighthearted remark comes at a time when reports have confirmed that the filming of SRK's upcoming action-thriller King has been temporarily stalled. According to Mid-Day, the actor injured his shoulder while performing a stunt, leading the team to pause production until he is fit to return to set.
Meanwhile, Aryan Khan, who has chosen to pursue direction instead of acting like his father and sister Suhana Khan, has been shaping this project for over a year. He not only serves as the creator and director but is also collaborating with co-writers
Bilal Siddiqi
and Manav Chauhan. Backed by Red Chillies Entertainment, the show explores the vibrant and chaotic universe of strivers, hustlers, and dreamers trying to find their place in Bollywood.

The romantic (and bingeworthy) charms of ‘Mad About You'
Gift this article My comfort-food show these days happens to be a sitcom from the 1990s. Over the years, I'd caught reruns of Mad About You—starring Paul Reiser and the incomparable Helen Hunt—but now, watching the seven-season series episode by episode, I'm properly charmed. My comfort-food show these days happens to be a sitcom from the 1990s. Over the years, I'd caught reruns of Mad About You—starring Paul Reiser and the incomparable Helen Hunt—but now, watching the seven-season series episode by episode, I'm properly charmed. Imagine the smallest annoyances of a relationship being elevated, through the New York clamour, into the stuff of gentle opera. Picture Paul and Jamie Buchman, he a neurotic documentary filmmaker, she an eloquently practical PR executive, sparring over the size of a couch (née loveseat) as if the whole world depended on it. In a way, it does. Mad About You is all about the inevitable chaos of cohabitation and co-dependence. The show is so obsessed with the micro that the macro simply falls into its lap, pliant and grinning. Also Read | Master Of All: Why 'Seinfeld' is still the sitcom to beat Within the vast, neon-lit world of the American sitcom, Mad About You slides midway between Seinfeld, with its social self-absorption, and Friends, with its photogenic schmaltz. Where Seinfeld is about the nothingness of everydayness and Friends is about the everythingness of togetherness, Mad About You is about the intricacies of shared solitude. Hang around somebody long enough, and every sigh can be heard in surround sound. Created by actor Paul Reiser with Danny Jacobson, the show's writer's room boasted talents who went on to gild such series as Frasier, Modern Family, and even The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. Paul: Do you want to tell me why I just lied to our closest friends? Jamie: They wanted to take us to dinner. Reiser's character Paul is something of a sitcom unicorn: an American male neurotic who isn't annoyingly self-absorbed, but instead beguilingly self-aware and often, despite his best intent, at a loss. Paul, with his old-school charm and sly wit, is like an Albert Brooks character, but with better posture. Even as he dances on the edge of self-parody, Paul connects with us. (In one iconic episode, Paul leases his old apartment to Cosmo Kramer of Seinfeld, making Mad About You part of the great cosmic joke that is New York sitcom real estate.) The soul, the flame of the series, and the reason I keep coming back to mainline more episodes, is Helen Hunt's Jamie Buchman. Hunt makes Jamie more than Paul's straight-woman or neurotic counterpart. She's luminous and whip-smart, with a voice that soothes and slaughters with equal finesse, and a wrecking-ball wit that can take down a wall-full of Paul's insecurities with a single retort. Hunt may have the button-nosed adorability of a Meg Ryan character, but doesn't demonstrate any of her passivity. Paul: Just like that: bing, bang, boom? Jamie: At this point, I'd settle for the boom. Paul: You don't want the bing and the bang? Jamie: I did when we started. Mad About You is part of the 'Sony Pictures Stream" add-on package you can enable on Amazon Prime Video. It's a subscription tailormade for those who miss the TV shows they grew up on. There are newish movies here too, but the real appeal in this library is the old stuff. Take the movies: you can slam on action-packed comedies like Men in Black, Charlie's Angels, and the original Ghostbusters, and follow all that up with the inspiring mission statement that is Jerry Maguire. More Tom Cruise? Here you go with A Few Good Men. The Bridge on the River Kwai is around, as is Martin Scorsese's immortal and essential Taxi Driver. Then there are quintessentially 1990s movies like the unashamedly weepy Stepmom—or even the guilty pleasure of Anaconda. The TV show lineup reads like a love letter to the sleepovers and summer holidays: There's I Dream of Jeannie with its madcap, bottle-blonde mischief; Bewitched twitching its nose through domestic absurdity; Diff'rent Strokes delivering more life lessons per half-hour than most self-help books. These are shows Indians of a certain vintage devoured, albeit sometimes decades later, across Doordarshan and cable TV. 'Whatchu talkin' about, Willis?" If you're looking for all-ages entertainment you could enjoy with your parents as well as your kids, I'd strongly recommend this selection. In a world of fast-swiping content, these classics remind us that stories, like old friends or favourite reruns, deserve to be lingered over. Coming back to my Mad About You addiction… Of course nostalgia is to blame. They don't make shows about marriage—or even marriages—like they once used to. Today, when every show is a high concept and every relationship a hashtag, it is soothing to watch something where love is not a grand statement, but a series of negotiations: over furniture, over dinner plans, over whether or not to get a dog, or a baby, or even out of bed on a rainy Sunday. Paul: To me, every day with you is Valentine's Day. Jamie: In other words, you forgot to buy me a card. In our cynical times when romance can sometimes feel as quaint as a laugh-track, Mad About You's constant, congenial bickering—about duvet alignment or pillow territory—demonstrates a warmth. The laughter may be canned, but that fuzzy glow is for real. That truly is as good as it gets. Streaming tip of the week: Helen Hunt's finest film, As Good As It Gets, is streaming on Zee5. Jack Nicholson plays a curmudgeonly novelist, one who falls in love with a no-nonsense waitress played by Hunt. Famously, she makes him want to be a better man. Raja Sen is a screenwriter and critic. He has co-written Chup, a film about killing critics, and is now creating an absurd comedy series. He posts @rajasen.

Now in the recently released trailer of 'The Bengal Files', people thought that film-maker Vivek Agnihotri has taken a jibe at Saif and Kareena naming their son 'Taimur'. In a recent interview, Agnihotri clarified that he wasn't targeting anyone personally, but asserted that no Indian should choose to name their child after what he described as a "murderous invader. " Speaking on The Raunac Show, Agnihotri was asked if the reference in his trailer was aimed at Saif and Kareena's son. He replied, "A lot of people are named Taimur.

They had two children, Pooja and Siddhartha, yet, the couple got divorced in 1977. In a recent interview, Pooja has opened up on her mother Protima and her death. Protima was a celebrated model-turned-dancer who became known as much for her fearless individuality as for her art. In a recent conversation with SCREEN, Pooja opened up about her mother's remarkable life and how she left the world exactly the way she had always wished-by merging with nature. Protima passed away in the mountains, her body never recovered. While Pooja still mourns that her mother didn't live to see her 50th birthday, she finds solace in the fact that Protima lived-and departed-on her own terms.
