Multi-starrer Malang goes on floors

After helming the Arjun Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor starrer Half Girlfriend in 2017, hit filmmaker Mohit Suri returns to call the shots once again for his next multi-starrer directorial venture titled Malang.

Boasting of an impressive cast which includes the likes of Aditya Roy Kapur, Disha Patani, Anil Kapoor and Kunal Kemmu in lead roles, the much-awaited movie began production earlier today with a pooja.


Though the makers have not revealed much about the storyline of the film, insiders say it is a dark action thriller. A major part of Malang will be shot in Mauritius. The decision to shoot the film on a foreign locale has been taken to avoid overcrowding on the home turf.

Before beginning the shoot, Mohit Suri and Aditya Roy Kapur attended the pooja. Kapur also shared an image on his Instagram, captioning, “On a new journey with the man that changed it all for me.”

If you remember it was Mohit Suri’s 2013 blockbuster Aashiqui 2 which shot Aditya Roy Kapur to overnight stardom. The film still attracts huge viewership on television premieres, thanks to its intense love story and fantastic music score.

Malang is being bankrolled by Luv Films and T-Series. The film is set to roll into cinemas on 14th February, 2020.

Laura Dern reunites with Mike White as 'The White Lotus' recasts after Helena Bonham Carter’s exit

Highlights

  • She replaces Helena Bonham Carter after her exit over creative differences
  • The new season is being filmed in southern France during the Cannes Film Festival
  • Dern previously collaborated with creator Mike White on Enlightened

Laura Dern steps into one of television’s biggest dramas

Just days after Helena Bonham Carter made an abrupt exit from The White Lotus, HBO has moved quickly by bringing in a familiar face for creator Mike White. Laura Dern has officially joined the fourth season of the Emmy-winning series, which is already filming in southern France. While Bonham Carter’s departure sparked curiosity about what happened behind the scenes, Dern’s arrival shifts the focus back to the show itself and adds another major name to one of television’s most closely watched franchises.

Why Laura Dern feels like more than a replacement

Dern’s casting stands out because this is not her first collaboration with White. The pair first worked together on Year of the Dog before reuniting for HBO’s Enlightened, which they co-created and which earned Dern a Golden Globe. That history makes her casting feel less like a quick fix following Bonham Carter’s departure and more like White turning to a long-time creative partner he trusts. Dern also brings considerable star power, having won an Academy Award for Marriage Story and starred in projects such as Jurassic Park, Wild and Big Little Lies.
