John Abraham wraps up his next Satyameva Jayate 2

By: Mohnish Singh

Bollywood star John Abraham recently wrapped up the shoot of his next film Satyamev Jayate 2, which is a Milap Zaveri directorial. As the title aptly suggests, the film is a sequel to his 2018 vigilant action film Satyamev Jayate which turned out to be an instant success at the box-office despite clashing with superstar Akshay Kumar’s sports drama Gold.


After finishing the final schedule of Satyamev Jayate 2, which marks the acting comeback of Divya Khosla Kumar, Abraham has reportedly moved on to shoot his next Attack. The Lakshya Raj Anand directorial, which was announced in 2019, quietly hit the shooting floor in Delhi. The film also stars Jacqueline Fernandez and Rakul Preet Singh in lead roles.

Sharing some more details, a source close to the development tells a popular online publication, “It is on the verge of completion and John intends to finish a major chunk of the film by mid-next month.”

The source goes on to add that Attack also features a British actor in an important role. A brief schedule with him will take place in India once the lockdown restrictions are eased off in the UK and air travel is allowed.

“They cannot complete the film without the British actor as a lot of the film has already been shot with him. The final schedule will be chalked out depending on the feasibility of his return to India. Right now, UK is impacted by the second strain of Covid and the team of Attack does not want to risk by bringing him to India,” adds the source.

After completing the ongoing schedule of Attack, John Abraham will fly off to UAE to join the shoot of Yash Raj Films’ Pathan, co-starring Shah Rukh Khan, and Deepika Padukone. The Siddharth Anand directorial features the actor as the antagonist.

“John will be off to UAE for the schedule of Pathan. While SRK and Deepika have already started work on the film, John is yet to shoot, and he will join the team only in the UAE schedule, wherein the major chunk of action and thrill unfolds. It is said to be among the biggest schedules of Pathan,” the source concludes.

‘Jewel Thief’ review: Critics call it a predictable heist film with uninspired direction

The much-anticipated heist film Jewel Thief promised a thrilling ride with high-stakes action and suspense. However, early reviews suggest that the film falls short of expectations, leaving viewers underwhelmed by its predictable plot and lacklustre execution.

The premise of Jewel Thief centres around a master thief who is forced by a menacing antagonist to steal a rare diamond. Critics, however, note that while the plot has the potential to be gripping, the execution doesn’t quite live up to the hype. The film is described as a "predictable heist" where the twists are "painfully obvious" from the start, offering little in terms of suspense or surprise. The film’s plot quickly devolves into a familiar, formulaic chase that never quite finds its footing.

A final chapter full of twists, turns, and the inevitable end of Joe Goldberg’s story

'You' season 5 reviews: Critics react to Joe Goldberg’s bloody final chapter with mixed responses

Netflix’s You has always sparked strong reactions, equal parts addictive and absurd, and its fifth and final season stays true to that legacy. As Joe Goldberg bows out in this last chapter, the critical response has been a mix of intrigue, exhaustion, and reluctant admiration. Here's a breakdown of the overall verdict.

A slow start that eventually pays off?
The final season has been widely described as sluggish in its early episodes, bogged down by repetitive family drama surrounding Kate’s aristocratic and scheming relatives. The beginning feels a bit slow and hard to get into, but many agree that a mid-season twist helps inject some long-overdue energy. Once the narrative picks up, it becomes more engaging, if not exactly fresh, with enough momentum to keep viewers curious about how Joe's story will unravel.

Pedro Pascal criticise JK Rowling over her anti-trans views calling it ‘heinous loser behaviour’

Pedro Pascal isn’t staying silent. The Last of Us actor has sharply criticised JK Rowling after she celebrated a UK Supreme Court decision that defines “woman” in legal terms as only referring to biological females, a ruling that has sparked outrage across the globe.

Rowling, who helped fund the legal campaign that led to the verdict, celebrated the moment with a photo of herself on a yacht, drink in hand and cigar between her fingers, captioned: “I love it when a plan comes together.” Her post came across as a victory lap for a verdict that many see as a blow to trans rights, particularly for trans women, who now risk being excluded from single-sex spaces.

From chaos to cult: The mad journey of ‘Andaz Apna Apna’

Beloved Bollywood entertainer Andaz Apna Apna has delighted generations of film fans and is now regarded as a cult classic of Indian cinema. Its producers have consistently maintained that the comedy did well when it was released, but as the film was over budget, it did not make any profits at the time.

Over the years, however, this light-hearted movie – first released on 4 November 1994 – found its largest audience through home entertainment, in such a spectacular way that it is rightly regarded as one of the finest Indian comedies ever made.
