No trailer launch event for Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff starrer War

Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff starrer War is one of the most awaited films of the year. A few weeks ago, the makers had released the teaser of the film and it received a great response. There was never-seen-before action in the teaser, and Hrithik and Tiger looked super hot in it.

Now we are sure fans of both the actors are excited for the trailer of the film. When a big film is all set to hit the screens, it is expected that the makers will have a grand trailer launch event. However, the makers of War have decided to not have a trailer launch event and the reason behind it is that they feel the event won’t be able to match the film’s scale. Now that’s something interesting.


While talking to a news agency, director Siddharth Anand said, "An event for a film like this needs to be at par with what we are promising to audiences and it's impossible to create this spectacle from an event logistics point of view. So, we have decided to scrap the idea of the launch and want to leave audiences with only the visuals of the trailer. We are very excited about the trailer. It's a big asset and we are hoping audiences will love what they see.”

War is produced by Aditya Chopra under Yash Raj Films and also stars Vaani Kapoor and Anupria Goenka. The movie is slated to hit the screens on 2nd Oct 2019.

In the film, Tiger and Hrithik are pitted against each other and when the teaser of the film was released, both the actors on Twitter were challenging each other with their tweets. Tiger had tweeted, “@iHrithik, your moves may be a little rusty, let me show you how it’s done!” To this Hrithik had replied, “You're just starting out in a world I've mastered, @iTIGERSHROFF. Take a seat!”

Well, we are super excited for War.

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.
