'Make My Blouse Tight': Why Hema Malini Made This Request During 'Baghban' Shooting
1/7 After the release of Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham (2001), Amitabh Bachchan experienced a string of box office disappointments. 2/7 However, in 2003, his career saw a remarkable resurgence with the film Baghban, co-starring Hema Malini. 3/7 The film, which explored the emotional struggles of ageing parents neglected by their children, struck a chord with audiences. Made on a modest budget of Rs 10 crore, Baghban earned an impressive Rs 43 crore and became the fifth highest-grossing film of the year, according to Wikipedia. 4/7 Despite its later success, Baghban initially struggled to find a distributor. Many believed its story was too dated for contemporary cinema. But once released, the film was met with critical acclaim and commercial triumph. 5/7 The chemistry between Amitabh Bachchan and Hema Malini, fondly known as Bollywood's 'dream girl', was a major highlight. Though both actors were well into their 50s and 60s at the time (Amitabh was 61 and Hema 55), their performances were praised for their grace, emotional depth, and timeless charm. 6/7 In a later interview, Renu Chopra, wife of director Ravi Chopra, revealed a unique behind-the-scenes detail. She said that for a romantic scene in which Amitabh Bachchan's character fastens Hema Malini's blouse, the actress made a specific request: 'Keep my blouse a little tight. His touch will help me give the right expression... I need to feel it.' 7/7

National Brothers Day: Bollywood's Most Iconic On-Screen Brothers Who Touched Our Hearts
On National Brother's Day, we turn to the silver screen to celebrate the enduring, sometimes heart-wrenching, always powerful bond between brothers — one that's been at the core of some of Bollywood's most iconic stories. Whether it was rising from the ashes like Karan Arjun or sacrificing dreams for family like in Raksha Bandhan, these on-screen siblings have left an indelible mark on our hearts. Karan Arjun The legendary duo of Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan set the benchmark for undying sibling love. Karan Arjun was more than a revenge drama — it was about loyalty that transcended lifetimes. Rakhee's unforgettable line, 'Mere Karan Arjun aayenge,' became a cultural milestone, sealing this as the ultimate brotherhood film. Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham In Karan Johar's emotional family saga, Hrithik Roshan and Shah Rukh Khan play brothers separated by misunderstandings but bound by unshakable love. Hrithik's quest to reunite the family proved that no matter the years or distances, brotherhood holds firm. Raksha Bandhan Akshay Kumar delivered a heartfelt performance as the selfless big brother in Raksha Bandhan. This small-town story beautifully captured the everyday sacrifices and deep emotional investment siblings share, particularly in an Indian household. Agneepath Hrithik Roshan's role as Vijay Deenanath Chauhan was defined not only by vengeance but by his fierce protection of his younger sister. This gritty remake showcased how deeply rooted familial duty can drive a character's journey. Brothers This intense sports drama saw Akshay Kumar and Sidharth Malhotra as estranged siblings brought together by shared pain and a common ring. With MMA as the backdrop, Brothers explored themes of redemption, rage, and reconciliation. From classic to contemporary, Bollywood continues to remind us that a brother's love — even if unspoken — is one of the most powerful forces there is. This National Brother's Day, we celebrate not just blood ties, but the cinematic stories that make us believe in the strength of siblinghood.

King finds its ‘Rani': Shah Rukh Khan, Rani Mukerji to reunite on-screen after 19 years for Suhana Khan-starrer King
Has King finally found it's queen? The answer seems fool proof this time! There have been very few things as confusing and topsy-turvy as trying to figure out the final cast of the Shah Rukh Khan and daughter Suhana Khan led King. While its clear (and mammoth) that the father-daughter duo will be sharing space on screen, there seems to have been absolutely no clarity with regards to the female 'lead' of the film, from the perspective of SRK's on-screen pairing. Well as per a Pinkvilla report, King Khan is once again, after a gap of 19 years mind you, being paired opposite Rani Mukerji. What makes this news big isn't just the fact that the last time the two icons properly came together on screen, the year was 2006 — the film being Karan Johar's Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna, but also the fact that Rani will be returning to the movies after another mini-hiatus. For context, her last release was 2023 film Mrs. Chatterjee vs Norway. The Preport states: "Rani Mukerji and Shah Rukh Khan have worked together on films like Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham, and Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna among others, and are now all set for a reunion. Rani Mukerji has been cast to play the part of Suhana Khan's mother, and it's a role which acts as a catalyst for the entire action-thriller in the film". And for anyone thinking that Rani's role will be cameo-adjacent, know that the report also clarifies the following: "It was a no-brainer for Rani to say yes to Shah Rukh Khan and Siddharth Anand's offer for King. She heard the part, and instantly agreed to on board the film. Rani's track is the heart of King, leading to the emotional depth". Other formidable names associated with the project so far are Jackie Shroff, Anil Kapoor, Arshad Warsi, Rani Mukerji, Abhishek Bachchan, Deepika Padukone, Jaideep Ahlawat and Abhay Verma. The big banner film is set to go on floors next week — May 20 to be exact. Following this will be a grand scale Europe schedule. As far as the release goes, makers are eyeing a late 2026 window. Are you excited to see SRK and Rani reunite on screen after almost 2 decades?

This is the first time Shah Rukh and his daughter Suhana Khan will star together in a film. As per a Pinkvilla report, Rani will be seen in a cameo role for which she has done a shooting of five days. "Rani Mukerji has been cast to play the part of Suhana Khan's mother, and it's a role which acts as a catalyst for the entire action-thriller in the film. It was a no-brainer for Rani to say yes to Shah Rukh Khan and Siddharth Anand's offer for King. She heard the part, and instantly agreed to on board the film. Rani's track is the heart of King, leading to the emotional depth,' a source told Pinkvilla. Rani and Shah Rukh have worked together in three films--Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham, and Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna. A few reports claimed that Deepika will be seen playing the role of Suhana's mother, while some of them didn't mention what character she will essay in King. As per a Pinkvilla report, Deepika will have a "full-length role, and a lot more than just a cameo" in King.

"Arshad could not refuse when Shah Rukh approached him. When he personally calls someone, nobody says no. Arshad is doing the film only because he loves Shah Rukh. His role is a sweet, quirky, funny and cute one with slight grey shades; and only Arshad can play it to perfection,' a source told Mid-Day. As per a Bollywood Bubble report, Jackie Shroff and Jaideep Ahlawat will play the antagonists in the film. Quoting a source, it reported, 'Shah Rukh Khan himself reached out to Ahlawat, personally called him to come on board. He will be seen portraying a powerful antagonist in the film, sharing the villainous space with veteran actor Jackie Shroff.' Last year, when asked about rumours of being a part of King, Abhay told Pop Diaries, "I hope... It's not rumours, I won't be able to tell you all. I wish I could tell the world that. But yeah, to be honest, I don't have much to say right now." Siddharth Anand will helm King. The movie reportedly went on floors in March 2025 and will release globally in the later half of 2026. The film is written by Sujoy Ghosh with Siddharth Anand, Suresh Nair and Sagar Pandya. Abbas Tyrewala is King's dialogue writer. King is produced by Red Chillies Entertainment with Marflix.
