Amy Jackson in talks to pair up with Salman in Kick 2

Leaving many A-listers far behind, model-turned-actress Amy Jackson is leading the race which can land her the female lead role opposite none other than superstar Salman Khan. Yes, you heard that right! If latest reports are to be believed, Jackson might be cast in filmmaker Sajid Nadiadwala’s upcoming directorial venture, Kick 2, which is a sequel to his successful film Kick, starring Salman Khan and Jacqueline Fernandez in lead roles.

Since Jacqueline cannot be part of the sequel as her role ended in the first installment, the makers have zeroed in on the beautiful, Amy Jackson. Some sources reveal that talks are on with the actress and she can come onboard soon.


If the actress bags the role opposite megastar Salman Khan, it will be a great career booster for her in Bollywood. Though she has done a couple of Hindi films earlier, none of them actually helped her cement her position in the business. Her career in South films has been on rise though.

Meanwhile, Amy is gearing up for the release of her much-delayed film, 2.0. Also starring Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar in principal parts, the film sees the actress in the role of a high-end robot. 2.0 might arrive in cinemas in April.

Talking about Kick 2, the movie is expected to start rolling in June this year. It has fixed Christmas 2019 as its arrival date.

Brian Wilson: 6 genres that prove he was more than just a 'Beach Boy'

Brian Wilson, who died this week aged 82, is best remembered as the sonic architect of the Beach Boys and the laid-back "California sound" that swept the world in the 1960s. But to stop there would be to miss the scale of his ambition. Behind the striped shirts and sun-soaked harmonies was a composer and producer who transformed pop music, often by refusing to stay in one genre.

From symphonic pop to soul and psychedelia, Wilson built bridges between styles that rarely met. Here’s a look at six genres that define his legacy and show how much more there was to the man who gave us Good Vibrations.

Arjun Rampal says Rauf in 'Rana Naidu' is the most ruthless role of his career

Arjun Rampal has stepped into a deeply unsettling place with his portrayal of Rauf in Netflix’s Rana Naidu season 2. The actor, known for playing intense characters, says this role was unlike anything he’s done before.

“He’s the most terrifyingly real character I’ve ever played,” Rampal said. Rauf is unpredictable, violent, and entirely devoid of empathy, yet not completely soulless. What sets him apart is a surprising emotional sliver: the fierce love he holds for his niece. “She’s the only one he protects without question,” he explained. “It’s the only time you see something human in him.”
