AR Murugadoss blames ‘inability to understand Hindi' for Salman Khan's Sikandar failure: ‘I feel handicapped, don't understand what's happening on set'
When AR Murugadoss-Salman Khan's Sikandar was first announced, it was promoted as the next big thing after Atlee-Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan. The collaboration looked promising because it was the same filmmaker who worked with Aamir Khan for the 2008 film Ghajini, which became a blockbuster hit. However, Sikandar couldn't even earn 15% of what Jawan made at the worldwide box office. Sikandar's lifetime collection stood at Rs 184.6 crore against Jawan's Rs 1,160 crore. Now, after nearly four months of its release, filmmaker AR Murugadoss has made a shocking statement, explaining the reason behind Sikandar's box office debacle. During the promotion of his upcoming film Madharaasi, the filmmaker spoke about the failure of the Salman Khan-starrer film and blamed his inability to understand Hindi. He said, 'When we make films in our mother tongue, it gives us strength. We know what is happening here. Today there's a trend going and suddenly the audience gets connected with that trend. When we shift language, we don't know what the youngsters are enjoying in that language. All we need is a script to believe it.'

Then it is again translated in Hindi. We can only guess what they are saying, but we are exactly not sure about what is happening. When you make film in an unknown language and place, it feels like you are handicapped. It is like you don't have hands. I strongly believe our strength depends on where and which culture we come from. The statement came as a shocker to many as Sikandar is not the only Hindi film the Tamil filmmaker has directed in his career. He is also behind Akshay Kumar's 2014 film, Holiday: A Soldier Is Never Off Duty, which too like Ghajini, opened to positive reviews. That film earned Rs 180 crore against a budget of Rs 50 crore. His statement prompted people to question him. A user on X commented, 'Then why do you get lured by the payment and direct Hindi films?' Another user wrote, 'Who forced him to do that handicapped task?' Other comments read, 'So how come Holiday & Ghajini become blockbuster? If no power in story & execution then output will come zero only. No need to give such excuses.'

Farah Khan's cook Dilip holidays in Maldives, appoints personal manager, colours his hair blonde: ‘Tu toh Raja Babu hogaya', says the filmmaker
Farah Khan's cook became an internet sensation after he debuted with her vlog in 2023. Over the years, he met with several celebrities. He even signed brands like Myntra and Vim, where he shared the screen with actor Shah Rukh Khan and his boss Farah Khan. Now, Dilip has become the first one in his entire 'khandaan' to get a passport and visit a foreign country. In their latest vlog, Farah gave a glimpse of their trip to Maldives, where they celebrated Eid and also learnt to cook a local chicken dish. The vlog started with Dilip driving to the post office to collect his passport. Upon returning home, a thrilled Dilip jumps to touch Farah Khan's feet. With a wide smile, he says, 'Ma'am mera passport aagaya. Mere pure khandaan mein kisi ke paas passport nahi hai. (Ma'am I received my passport. I am the first person in my family to have one.)' Farah jokes, 'You are behaving as if you welcomed a child in your family.' She adds, 'Bhai, tu toh Raja Babu hogaya.' Soon they head to the airport where paps click him. They ask, 'Dilip bhai, kaisa lag raha hai? (Dilip, how are you feeling?)' He replies, 'Acha lag raha hai (I am feeling great).' Before boarding the flight, Dilip shops at the mall in airport. He buys expensive sunglasses, perfumes, and a neck pillow. While he shops, Farah Khan steals his passport with the security holding him back, saying: 'Aap andar nahi jaa sakte bina passport ke (You can proceed forward without a passport).' After a fun banter, they finally arrive at the Maldives, where Dilip surprises Farah by introducing her to his newly hired manager. He says, 'Maine manager rakha hai ma'am (I have hired a manager).' Dilip's manager Yashovardhan organises the best stay and water activities for Dilip sparking another fun conversation between the filmmaker and her manager Kalp. They soon head to their water villa, where they receive a traditional welcome.

Their first day in the island includes fun water activities followed by a relaxing spa session. On their day 2, they head to Maafushi island in Maldives where they meet the locals and click pictures with them. Many even recognise Dilip from Farah's vlogs and click pictures with them. Reviving the core of their vlogs–special food recipes–Farah and Dilip visit a local's house to learn a special chicken recipe. The duo then celebrates Eid wearing Maldives' local attire Libaas and Mundu, respectively. Their international trip prompted several responses from their viewers on YouTube. A user commented, 'This is so adorable! The way you treat Dilip ji with so much love and do not discriminate at all is just heart touching it truly depicts how good hearted and emotional person you are ma'am.' Another comment read, 'The banters between Farah ma'am and Dilip sir were already a highlight but these managers have put chaar chaand in the series… Also, Dilip sirs manager is so handsome.' Several others called Farah 'kind' and Dilip 'lucky.' The cook was recently in the news when he revealed he has constructed a three storey building in his hometown with a private pool. He has also shifted his children into an English medium school for better education.
