Jimmy Sheirgill set to play a cop in his next

It is no exaggeration to say that Jimmy Sheirgill is one of the finest actors that we have today in the Hindi film industry.

The actor has played a diverse range of characters in his more than two-decade-long career and has been heralded for his outstanding performances in such fine films as A Wednesday (2008), Tanu Weds Manu (2011), Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster (2011) and Happy Bhag Jayegi (2016), to name just a few films.


The latest news about the talented actor is that he has been signed on for a new film. The untitled project stars Jimmy in the role of an anti-terrorist cop. The film will mark the directorial debut of Rohit Yadav.

Though nothing much is out about the new venture at the moment, some sources reveal that the makers are gearing up to begin production in the month of April. The film will be majorly shot in Delhi.

In addition to this yet-to-be-titled movie, Jimmy will also be seen in De De Pyaar De, Mental Hai Kya and Good News.

Was the online backlash manufactured? Alia Bhatt's 'Alpha's' £5.4 million haul is raising questions

Highlights

  • Alpha has continued to perform steadily despite weeks of online trolling and criticism aimed at Alia Bhatt.
  • The Yash Raj Films spy thriller earned about £342,000 on Monday, taking its worldwide total to more than £5.4 million in four days.
  • Social media debate over Bhatt's casting, action credentials and nepotism has contrasted with the film's performance in cinemas.

Long before Alpha reached cinemas, Alia Bhatt found herself at the centre of an intense social media debate. From being labelled "miscast" as an action star to renewed accusations of nepotism, the actor faced weeks of criticism as the Yash Raj Films spy thriller prepared for release. Yet, despite the online noise, audiences appear to be making up their own minds.

The film has cleared an important weekday test, collecting around £342,000 on Monday and taking its worldwide earnings beyond £5.4 million within its first four days. The figures suggest the online discourse has not prevented cinema-goers from turning up for the franchise's first female-led instalment.
