Farah Khan's cook Dilip takes fans on tour of under-construction three-storey bungalow in Bihar, says, ‘Still need to make a swimming pool'
Farah Khan's cook Dilip went on a trip to his village near Darbangha, Bihar, to attend the wedding of his niece. Farah couldn't attend herself, but sent her blessings in the form of a large standee of herself, which was actually placed next to the couple during the wedding rituals. But before the festivities began, Dilip gave viewers a tour of his under-construction bungalow, and introduced them to his children. He said that Farah has arranged for the kids to attend an English-medium school, as he asked one of them to recite the alphabet for the camera.
Taking audiences around his house, Dilip said that the work is still unfinished. He showed his room, his childrens' room, and the terrace, where grains from his farm were laid out in the sun. Dilip said that he has temporarily put fabric on the windows to block the light and the wind, and that the construction will soon end. 'Please subscribe, because I still need to make a swimming pool,' he joked.

Meanwhile, Farah stayed behind in Mumbai and planned a surprise for him. She said that she's having the entire kitchen redone in his absence. Dilip interacted with his parents and family members, and attended his niece's wedding. Dilip spoke about Farah constantly, even when he was supervising the cooking. 'She likes potatoes so much, she would've loved the bhaji we've made,' he said. Dilip being addressed as 'sir' by the workers also prompted the editor of the vlog to insert a cutout of Farah making a sarcastic comment.
This isn't the first time that Dilip has taken viewers on a trip to his village. But when he previously showed his house, it was in the earliest stages of construction. In another vlog, Farah told the guest, Karan Wahi, about Dilip's fame and fortune. 'Dilip too has a three-storey bungalow in Bihar. It has six bedrooms in it,' she said. Farah's career as a YouTuber has taken off in recent months, with her channel gaining 1.7 million subscribers.

James Vasanthan praises 'Thug Life' despite criticism; calls Kamal Haasan and Mani Ratnam's film a masterpiece, fans get shocked
The highly spoken about movie 'Thug Life,' directed by Mani Ratnam, released on June 5. The film starring Kamal Haasan , Simbu, Trisha, Abhirami, Ashok Selvan, Nasser, Joju George, and many others, failed to perform well at the box office. Many fans cited the confusing script as the reason for the film's moderate response. In this case, music composer James Vasanthan shared an honest review and appreciation on social media after watching the film. In the post, James Vasanthan said, 'I saw Thug Life last night. I was blown away. Good film. A masterpiece film. But I don't understand why some people gave it such bad reviews. It had all the right elements for an underworld gangster film in the right proportions. If it had been an English film starring Hollywood stars, we would have appreciated it. The film has a deep story, a warm screenplay, stunning visuals, excellent cinematography, international standard background music, compelling performances, excellent sound mix, and excellent editing. Not a single scene was boring!." Furthermore, on thinking about the ending of the story, he said, 'What if Simbu's character didn't die, but Kamal's character did? What if both of them died? What if Nassar's character was at the end? There could have been many such differences. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Perdagangkan CFD Emas dengan Broker Tepercaya IC Markets Mendaftar Undo But that doesn't diminish the quality of the film.

Lights, camera, crisis? Hindi films struggle despite 27% box office jump
Film producers and distributors say the 27 per cent jump in all-India box-office earnings during the first five months of 2025 hides a much grimmer reality. Despite total receipts climbing to ₹4,812 crore from ₹3,791 crore a year earlier, industry insiders describe an 'existential' crisis and an atmosphere of 'nervousness' across the sector, The Economic Times reported. 'Are we looking at numbers or real growth? Last year was an election year. So, it seems there is growth in collection. There is a huge difference between film business in multiplexes and the B-class and C-class centres,' said Yusuf Shaikh, CEO and founder of Janta Cinema, quoted by The Economic Times. Lack of mass entertainers Shaikh mentions the theatres' core audience — the masses — now struggle to find 'credible mass entertainers' on screen. A veteran distributor said that the ritual of weekly movie-going has faded. He said that the audience, for whom watching films in theatres was a ritual, is missing. This has impacted the average opening and collection of Hindi films. Data from Ormax Media underscore the shift. Non-Hindi titles — ranging from English to various regional languages — accounted for 63 per cent of nationwide box-office takings between January and May, only slightly lower than the 67 per cent share logged a year earlier. Hindi films improved their share to 37 per cent, buoyed by hits such as Chhaava and Raid 2, The Economic Times report mentioned. Dependence on big-budget releases Yet a handful of successes cannot reverse broader structural issues, warns media-ech consultant Prashen Kayla. 'One or two hits do not promise change in the business situation. The Hindi film industry is disproportionately dependent on big-budget films. Today, the industry needs more successful mid-budget films,' he said, as quoted by the report. Aamir Khan calls OTT a threat to Hindi cinema Bollywood actor Aamir Khan expressed concern over the growing trend of releasing Hindi films on OTT platforms shortly after their theatrical debut. According to him, this practice undermines the theatrical business model, especially when going to the cinema is increasingly viewed as a premium experience rather than a regular habit. In a conversation with screenwriter and lyricist Javed Akhtar, the issue of Hindi cinema's disconnect with audiences was brought up. Akhtar pointed out, 'The [Hindi] films have lost all connectivity with the audience. Dubbed South Indian films, featuring stars who are unknown to audiences here in North India, are releasing and doing ₹600–700 crore business. Even the few of our films that end up working are also directed by people from the South. What happened to our people?' Khan responded that the challenge is not about regional differences. 'The problem we are facing is something different,' he explained. He criticised the current model of content distribution in the industry: 'Please come and consume our product. If you don't, we'll come and drop it off at your doorstep in eight weeks (through OTT platforms). This is our business model.' OTT platforms reshape viewing habits The rise of OTT platforms has fundamentally altered how audiences consume films. Viewers now prefer the flexibility and affordability of streaming content from the comfort of their homes. Unlike cinemas, OTT allows for on-demand access with features such as pause, rewind, and fast-forward. Subscription costs are also considerably lower than the expenses associated with a theatrical outing. Younger viewers, in particular, have embraced this shift, leading to a decline in habitual theatre-going. While theatres still offer a unique and immersive viewing experience, they have responded by enhancing their offerings — introducing high-end formats like IMAX, luxury recliners, and gourmet concessions — to attract audiences seeking something beyond the standard home setup.
