Deepika Padukone, who was last seen in Chhapaak (2020), is currently juggling several projects at the same time. One of her eagerly awaited films is Pathan which recently resumed production in Mumbai after the government of Maharashtra eased off lockdown-induced restrictions in the state.

The latest update on the forthcoming venture is that Padukone will be seen performing some high-octane action sequences in the film. The action thriller also stars Shah Rukh Khan and John Abraham in lead roles and will have an extended appearance by Salman Khan as Tiger from his films Ek Tha Tiger (2012) and Tiger Zinda Hai (2017).

Divulging some details, a source close to Padukone tells a publication that the actress underwent intense training sessions as part of her preparation for action sequences. “Deepika is shooting for high octane action scenes for Pathan currently. They are shooting them in Mumbai itself and Deepika has done intense prep for it,” says the source.

Directed by Siddharth Anand for Yash Raj Films, Pathan reunites Padukone with Shah Rukh Khan after Happy New Year (2014) and John Abraham after Race 2 (2013). The film is mounted on a lavish scale and will feature a series of jaw-dropping action sequences.

In addition to Pathan, Deepika Padukone has her bag full with a number of other exciting projects which are currently at various stages of development. While she has already wrapped up Shakun Batra’s untitled film with Ananya Panday and Siddhant Chaturvedi, her untitled science-fiction film with Prabhas and Amitabh Bachchan mounted the shooting floor on Saturday in Hyderabad. Nag Ashwin is directing.

The actress also headlines Madhu Mantena’s Draupadi and the official remake of the Hollywood film The Intern. Both projects are expected to get off the ground in 2022.

Chris Brown arrested in Manchester over alleged nightclub bottle attack on music producer

R&B star Chris Brown was taken into custody early Thursday morning in Manchester, England, over an alleged assault at a London nightclub in 2023. Police arrested the 36-year-old singer at The Lowry Hotel shortly after 2 a.m., charging him with causing grievous bodily harm to music producer Abe Diaw.

The incident dates back to 19 February 2023, when Brown reportedly attacked Diaw at Tape nightclub in Mayfair, central London. According to Diaw’s lawsuit filed last October, Brown struck him multiple times on the head with a bottle of Don Julio 1942 tequila. The assault allegedly continued with Brown stomping and kicking Diaw, leaving him unconscious for about 30 seconds and requiring hospitalisation for head wounds and torn ligaments in his leg.

Aamir Khan and Jr NTR ready to clash on screen? Two biopics on Dadasaheb Phalke in the making

The man who started it all, Dadasaheb Phalke, the pioneer of Indian cinema, is set to be immortalised on screen not once, but twice. In a surprising turn, two major biopics on the "Father of Indian Cinema" are in the works, with Bollywood and Tollywood’s biggest stars stepping into his shoes.

First, reports emerged that Jr NTR will portray Phalke in Made in India, a project backed by RRR director SS Rajamouli. The film, announced last year, will be a pan-India release diving into the birth of Indian cinema. Sources say NTR was instantly drawn to the script, fascinated by lesser-known aspects of Phalke’s journey. The actor, always known for his high-action roles, will take on a more subdued, dramatic part this time.

Scarlett Johansson slams Oscars for snubbing 'Avengers: Endgame' for Best Picture and calls out lengthy award shows

Scarlett Johansson has once again voiced her frustration over the Oscars overlooking Avengers: Endgame for the Best Picture category. The actress, known for portraying Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, expressed her disbelief during an interview. She questioned how a film as groundbreaking and successful as Endgame managed to receive only one nomination, for visual effects, at the 2020 Academy Awards.

“It was an impossible movie that shouldn’t have worked, yet it did, both as a film and as a cultural moment,” Johansson remarked. She pointed out that the film not only pushed creative boundaries but also became one of the highest-grossing movies of all time. Despite its global impact and critical acclaim, Endgame remained absent from major Oscar categories, including Best Picture.
