National Film Award-winning Bollywood actor Irrfan Khan, who was undergoing treatment in London for neuroendocrine tumour, is completely fine now. According to reports, the actor is now looking at returning to work pretty soon.

Irrfan, who was last seen in Karwaan (2018), will reportedly start shooting for his much-talked-about film Hindi Medium 2 soon. The film is a sequel to his well-received movie Hindi Medium (2017). The entire team of the film could be heading to the US to begin production in April, as per reports.

“While Hindi Medium was shot extensively in India, the sequel will be shot in the U.S. The story will revolve around the daughter, to be played by Radhika Madan, who travels to the United States for her higher education,” a source revealed.

In Hindi Medium, Pakistani actress Saba Qamar was seen as the female lead opposite Irrfan Khan. However, now the makers are looking for her replacement after the Indian film industry imposed a blanket ban on Pakistani artists.

Hindi Medium 2 will be produced by Dinesh Vijan.

Jameela Jamil says Pixar’s ‘Elio’ is the hope young people need in a chaotic world

At a time when the world feels chaotic and heavy, Disney Pixar’s Elio arrives with a message that couldn’t be more relevant: kids matter, and they’re stronger than they realise.

The animated film, which had its star-studded premiere in Los Angeles this week, follows an 11-year-old boy who accidentally becomes Earth’s ambassador in outer space. Directed by Madeline Sharafian and Domee Shi, Elio is Pixar’s first feature with a Mexican-Dominican lead, voiced by Yonas Kibreab. His character’s journey from an outsider on Earth to a confident connector among aliens mirrors what many young people feel today: lost, overlooked, and searching for belonging.

From Hogwarts to headlines, the real cost of childhood fame for Harry Potter’s new stars

As HBO prepares to bring Harry Potter back to screens with a new television adaptation, excitement is high around the casting of Dominic McLaughlin, Arabella Stanton, and Alastair Stout as the iconic trio of Harry, Hermione, and Ron. But amid the buzz, a quiet voice of caution has emerged. Chris Watson, father of original Hermione actress Emma Watson, is urging parents and the industry to tread carefully when it comes to child stardom.

Chris Watson is not speaking as a critic or industry insider but as someone who watched his daughter grow up inside a global franchise. Emma was nine when she landed the role of Hermione Granger, and what followed was a decade of public attention that reshaped her life. Her father remembers the shift vividly. “Her homework would go back to school on motorbikes,” he once said, pointing to the surreal logistics fame forced on them.
