's playful jab at co-stars
Shraddha Kapoor
and
Parineeti Chopra
seems like the perfect throwback for the day. The actor, who is in the news for his role in the film, 'Metro In Dino' once took a playful jibe at his former co-stars claiming that neither of the two is talented.
In a throwback video from the Koffee With Karan Season 6, Aditya shared the couch with Sidharth Malhotra and was posed a tricky question in the rapid-fire round. Host Karan Johar asked, 'Shraddha or Parineeti – who's more talented?' Aditya casually waved his hand and jokingly said, 'Neither,' making Sidharth burst into laughter. Karan pushed further, asking, 'You think neither of them are talented?' to which Aditya quipped with a grin, 'Ya, no talent.

From '
Aashiqui 2
' to 'Metro In Dino'
Aditya made his debut with 'London Dreams' in 2009 but rose to fame with the blockbuster 'Aashiqui 2' in 2013 opposite Shraddha Kapoor. He later starred with Parineeti in 'Daawat-e-Ishq'. The actor most recently starred alongside Sara Ali Khan, Pankaj Tripathi and Konkona Sen Sharma in Anurag Basu's 'Metro In Dino', which received positive reviews from the audience and did decent box office business.
Aditya reflects on career setbacks
While the actor is known for his charm and wit, Aditya also opened up about his career struggles in the past. In an interview with Kareena Kapoor Khan on her talk show What Women Want, he admitted to facing a rough patch when his films weren't doing well and scripts weren't appealing to him. 'There have been vulnerable moments… maybe because I was vulnerable at that point in time,' he said, reflecting on the pressure of navigating uncertain phases in his career.

'Mujhe Galli Ke Kutte Ne Kata tha...': The hillarious Son of Sardaar 2 review going viral on X

' Son Of Sardaar 2 ' has hit theatres, bringing back Ajay Devgn as Jassi — a man pretending to be a war hero to help a young woman win her boyfriend's family's approval for marriage. A sequel to the 2012 hit Son of Sardaar, which was praised for its humour and box office success, the follow-up has received mixed reactions from both critics and audiences.

Play this for 1 minute and see why everyone is crazy about it. Play Game Undo According to The Times of India, the film's first half offers some entertainment, but the plot soon becomes overstuffed with characters and comedy tracks. 'Some of the humour misses the mark — like Jassi watching Raja's aged Russian stepmom pole dance. Routine song-and-dance sequences drag the narrative without adding to the plot. The climax is convoluted, predictable, and over-dramatised,' the review added. Audience reactions on social media are mixed as well. One X user commented: '#SonOfSardaar2 Review: A full-on #AjayDevgn show with desi comedy and family drama. #MrunalThakur looks stunning and delivers a solid performance. Some scenes feel stretched, but overall it's a fun ride that gives the same entertainment as part one. Recommended.' Live Events Another fan wrote: '#SonOfSardaar2 It's a wonderful movie — lots of comedy, lots of laughing moments. It's a complete family entertainer. A must-watch.' However, one brutally honest reaction has gone viral. In a hilarious video doing the rounds on X, a man deadpans: "I was bitten by a street dog, people beat me up, and even my family begged me to watch anything but Son of Sardaar 2… but I was a fool. There's nothing good in the film except the interval and the exit." Watch the viral clip here (it might just be funnier than Son of Sardaar 2 itself): — TARUNspeakss (@TARUNspeakss)

23 years in production, this Bollywood movie saw three deaths; was released 12 years after its director died

Series of Tragic Setbacks Film Completed In Fragments In the early 1960s, acclaimed filmmaker K Asif—best known for Mughal-e-Azam—embarked on a new cinematic journey. Titled Love and God, the film was a grand retelling of the timeless Persian-Arabic romance of Laila and Majnu. Asif, already established as a master of epic storytelling, envisioned this project as another feather in his cap. But instead, it became one of Bollywood's most ill-fated film's journey began in 1963 with Guru Dutt and Nimmi cast in the lead roles. However, tragedy struck when Guru Dutt died by suicide in 1964, bringing the project to a standstill. Several years later, Asif attempted to revive the film by casting Sanjeev Kumar as Majnu and restarting production in in yet another cruel twist of fate, K Asif passed away in 1971 before the film could be completed. This was not the first time Asif's filmmaking dreams were disrupted. Even during the making of Mughal-e-Azam, the 1947 Partition had halted progress when one of the original financers moved to Pakistan, and the lead actor Chandramohan died in 1949. Still, Asif had managed to complete Mughal-e-Azam, but Love and God proved to be a much tougher Asif's death, the project was shelved for over a decade. It was eventually revived by his wife, Akhtar Asif, who was also the sister of actor Dilip Kumar. With help from producer KC Bokadia, she decided to salvage the existing footage. Unfortunately, before the film could be finalised, Sanjeev Kumar too passed away in 1985. Despite the incomplete state of the project, Akhtar and Bokadia pieced together the film from scattered footage and editing across multiple and God was finally released on 27 May 1986—23 years after it had first gone into production. But the final product failed to impress audiences or critics. The film was both a commercial and critical only two completed films—Phool (1945) and the iconic Mughal-e-Azam (1960)—K Asif's career spanned over two decades. Love and God became his third and final directorial attempt, which remained unfinished in his lifetime. Tragically, all three central figures in the project—Guru Dutt, Sanjeev Kumar, and K Asif—died before reaching the age of 50.
