He further shared, 'The funny part is, just two months ago, we had started making short horror videos of about two minutes each for YouTube, and suddenly, a big horror show like Aahat came my way. For me, it was a sure-shot yes. I'm handling two verticals — producing, directing, and even acting — so six days a week were completely blocked for this. I would even shoot extra to make sure they never fell short of episodes. I'm honestly so excited to be a part of this.

Tagore called the decision a closure for the voiceless. Hooda welcomed the court's reconsideration. Both stars suggested long-term solutions like neutering and adoption. Tagore recently starred in 'Puratawn'. Hooda's latest film is 'Jaat'. Sharmila Tagore and Randeep Hooda have voiced their concerns over the Supreme Court 's recent directive to relocate all stray dogs in Delhi-NCR to shelter homes. Both stars urged a more humane and balanced approach, calling for long-term solutions that protect both people and animals while addressing the so-called 'dog menace. ' 'Decision is like a door closing on the voiceless' In a video shared by Anish Gawande, National Spokesperson of the NCP, on X, the veteran actress said, 'Today, we are facing a crisis of conscience. The recent Supreme Court decision is like a door closing on the voiceless and defenceless of our society. I wish the safety and sanctity of life was at the heart of the judgement.' Calling for a more balanced response, she added, 'I wish a more nuanced and calibrated approach had been taken towards the systemic flaws that are at the root of the so-called dog menace. In silencing those who cannot protect themselves, we risk losing something essential within ourselves.' Appeal to reconsider the order She urged the government to reconsider the order, saying, 'This need of experience over sympathy has caused tremendous harm. I hope and pray the Supreme Court will try and find a fine balance embedded in justice.' Responding to the widespread criticism, Chief Justice Gavai agreed on 13 August, to review the Court's order. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Use an AI Writing Tool That Actually Understands Your Voice Grammarly Install Now Undo Randeep Hooda weighs in Reacting to this development, actor Randeep Hooda welcomed the reconsideration, tweeting: "So glad to hear that the Honourable CJI has agreed to look into the ruling about stray dogs in NCR. Passing a law and implementing a law should be, firstly, humane — and secondly, the infrastructure and sensitivity need to be taken care of." He acknowledged the complexity of the issue, "Are stray dogs our collective community humanitarian responsibility? Yes. Can they be a menace? Yes. I love animals — but will I be able to justify it to a family that has lost a loved one to rabies or serious injuries? No." Long-term solutions recommended Randeep warned that mass impounding is neither practical nor humane. He recommended long-term measures such as large-scale, repeated neutering, relocating aggressive dog packs, and encouraging adoption.

'War 2' advance box office report: The Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR film earns Rs 16 crore gross in advance ticket sales, momentum picks as Telugu markets opens
'War 2' is one of the most anticipated movies of the year. The Hrithik Roshan , Jr NTR , Kiara Advani film is also facing a tough competition from Rajikinanth's 'Coolie' which is already having a huge advance booking. While earlier, the advance sales for 'War 2' were not extra-ordinary, the film has picked momentum just as the openings in Telugu markets have opened. Ahead of the opening of bookings in the Telugu states, 'War 2' had already grossed around ₹10 crore (with block seats) for its Hindi version's first day. However, once sales began in the Telugu markets, momentum picked up sharply, with BookMyShow logging over 20,000 tickets sold per hour for the first time. This boost is expected to spill over into the Hindi belt as well just as the film releases. At present, Coolie is leading the advance booking race, having already hit an opening-day worldwide gross of ₹75 crore, of which ₹30 crore of which comes from India and this data was till Wednesday afternoon. According to Sacnilk, the film has made Rs 16 crore so far on Day 1 as the gross number and this is the figure from advance sales excluding the block bookings. However, with the block bookings, the advance day 1 number is Rs 28 crore as of now. However, according to Box Office India, Trade analysts caution, that these numbers don't yet point to an 'huge blockbuster type of weekend', the kind the industry hopes for with such big-budget spectacles. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like New Container Houses Serbia (Prices May Surprise You) Container House | Search Ads Search Now Undo 'War 2' may look underwhelming when compared to some past juggernauts, but the ratio of advance sales to first-day collections has changed in recent years, making direct parallels tricky. Some previous 'big ones,' as the trade hints, even had 'advances which were tampered putting it in a nice way.' By contrast, War 2's advance numbers are twice that of recent big titles like 'Raid 2' and 'Housefull 5'. Regional performance of the film will also be a mixed bag. 'War 2' is expected to underperform in Maharashtra, Gujarat, East Punjab, Rajasthan, and Madhya Pradesh, just as Pathaan, Jawan, and Animal did, but it will need to make up for this shortfall in other territories, as those films managed to do. The Telugu-dubbed version could perform well thanks to JR NTR's presence, who is a massive star in the Nizam/Andhra belt. One already senses that as the fil has suddenly picked momentum, just as the Telugu markets have opened. Still, 'Coolie' will be a formidable rival, even outside its home Tamil market. Eventually, the content of both these movies and word of mouth will eventually decide the fate of both these movies while the weekend performance will be crucial for deciding among these.
