Ajooba directed and produced by Shashi Kapoor was also co-directed by Soviet filmmaker Gennady Vasilyev and starred Amitabh, Amrish Puri, Rishi Kapoor, and Dimple Kapadia, among others.

Loosely based on Arabic folklore, the film had Amitabh portraying the role of Ajooba, who is always willing to help the people of the fictional kingdom, Baharistan.

Meanwhile, Amitabh was recently seen in the action thriller film Ganapath: A Hero is Born alongside Tiger Shroff and Kriti Sanon.

Megastars of Indian cinema Rajinikanth and Amitabh Bachchan are all set to reunite after 33 long years in the upcoming film Thalaivar 170. The actors wrapped up the Mumbai schedule of the film.

Taking to X (formerly Twitter) Lyca Productions shared a picture from the sets of the film and announced the schedule wrap.

In the picture, Amitabh could be seen sitting on a chair looking at the mobile screen with a bandage on his hand. The 'Robot' actor, on the other hand, is seen standing close to him and looking at the screen. Thalaivar 170 is being directed by TJ Gnanavel.

Ritika Singh, Manju Warrier, Tushara Vijayan, Rana Daggubati, and Fahadh Faasil have also been cast as extras. Rajinikanth is expected to play a retired police officer in the film.

Hailey Bieber says being compared to other women online drains her

Hailey Bieber finally speaks on constant Selena Gomez comparisons and says she is over the fake rivalry

Highlights:

  • Being compared to other women online drains her.
  • She never signed up for the whole rivalry narrative.
  • She talks about the weird public fixation on her marriage.
  • She explains the very simple reason her son's face stays off the internet.

Right, so Hailey Bieber is done with this. The whole thing. In a Wall Street Journal piece that dropped, she basically just said what everyone was thinking but would not print. Being constantly measured against other people, especially other women, has worn her out. She calls it frustrating, even exhausting, and laughs a little when asked about it. “Annoying does not cover it,” she says. And really, she never signed up for any of it. Who would?

It is weird, right? Here she is, with Rhode hitting these insane goals like that Sephora launch, the whole e.l.f. Beauty deal worth and yet a chunk of the conversation still orbits this tired, manufactured drama. Everyone is still obsessed with her marriage and old drama, and yes, this is happening in 2025. Can we not?
