No change in the release date of Salman Khan starrer Radhe?

By Murtuza Iqbal

In India, Covid-19 cases are rising rapidly and many filmmakers have decided to postpone the release date of their movies. Bunty Aur Babli 2, Chehre, and Sooryavanshi were all set to release this month, but the makers have delayed the release.


However, now, everyone is keen to know whether Salman Khan starrer Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai will also get postponed or will release as per the schedule on Eid this year. A source told Bollywood Hungama, “As of now, there are no plans of pushing the film. The release date remains the same, that is, May 13, 2021. We’ll wait and observe the situation and whether the Covid-19 cases hit the peak and come down by mid-April, as predicted by some experts. The decision will be taken by end of April 30 or on May 1, when the lockdown is lifted. But as things stand today, there’s no change in the release date of Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai.”

In most of the states, there’s night curfew announced, and theatres are functioning with 50 percent of the occupancy. However, in Maharashtra, the theatres have been completely shut till 30th April 2021.

Directed by Prabhudeva, Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai also stars Disha Patani and Randeep Hooda. John Abraham starrer Satyameva Jayate 2 is also slated to hit the big screens on Eid 2021. Directed by Milap Zaveri, the movie also stars Divya Khosla Kumar in the lead role.

It will be interesting to see if these two films will release as per the schedule or will get postponed.

K Anis Ahmed’s 'Carnivore' serves up satire, class war and moral rot

From the blood-soaked backstreets of Dhaka to the polished kitchens of Manhattan’s elite, K Anis Ahmed’s new novel Carnivore is as imaginative as it is provocative. A satirical thriller steeped in class tension, culinary obsession and primal survival, Carnivore follows Kash, a Bangladeshi immigrant-turned-chef who launches a high-end restaurant serving exotic meats – only to become embroiled in a sinister world of appetite and ambition.

But this is no simple tale of knives and recipes. Ahmed – a seasoned journalist, publisher, and president of PEN Bangladesh – brings a sharp eye to the grotesqueries of power and privilege. In this exclusive interview with Eastern Eye, he speaks about his passion for food, the moral murkiness of his characters, and why even the most ordinary people can spiral into extraordinary darkness.

Mahima Sharma brings bold new energy to cricket’s old guard

As the world prepares for the second edition of the World Championship of Legends (WCL), one of its most exciting franchises, the Meteora England Champions, is being led by a compelling force. Mahima Sharma is not just making her mark in cricket – she is quietly redefining leadership in a male-dominated industry.

In an industry long regarded as a boys’ club, Sharma brings a refreshingly unapologetic approach. She is strategic, deeply rooted in her love for the game, and proudly feminine. “Cricket has always felt like home to me,” she says. “I come from a culture where cricket is an emotion, and stepping into this role carries a great deal of responsibility. Growing up, I saw very few women leaders in cricket. To now find myself in this position 15 years later feels like coming full circle.”
