Pooja Hegde looking forward to sharing screen with Salman Khan in Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali

After facing some delay due to the coronavirus pandemic, Sajid Nadiadwala’s much-awaited production Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali is expected to get off the ground soon. The family entertainer stars Salman Khan and Pooja Hegde in lead roles. Hegde, who plays Khan’s romantic interest in the high-profile project, is looking forward to sharing the screen space with the superstar for the first time.

“I am really excited to work with Salman Khan. The film’s shoot got postponed due to the pandemic, but we will soon start shooting for it,” the actress said in one of her recent interviews.


When asked what she really admires about Khan, Hegde said, “What I really admire about him is that he is very transparent. If he likes you, he really likes you, and if he does not, then you can tell he does not. I really like that.”

She went on to add, “In a world where people can be fake, it is really nice to at least know where you stand with a person. And that's something that takes a lot of guts to do – to be frank and honest about how you feel about the person; I think that is great.”

There are rumours suggesting that the makers have decided to change the title of the film from Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali to Bhaijaan to avoid any controversy around the release of the film. However, there is no official word on the same so far.

Apart from Kabhi Eid Kabhi Diwali, Pooja Hegde has several other interesting projects in the pipeline. She will next be seen in Radhe Shyam, a multilingual romantic drama co-starring Prabhas. The actress has also completed Rohit Shetty’s Cirkus with Ranveer Singh and Jacqueline Fernandez. In Telugu, she next stars in Acharya. She has also been confirmed to star alongside Vijay in his next Beast.

Touqir Islam on 'Delupi', Anurag Kashyap’s support and telling stories through cinema

Highlights

  • Bangladeshi filmmaker Mohammad Touqir Islam tells Eastern Eye how floods and the 2024 student-led movement inspired his debut feature Delupi.
  • The film combines real stories from a flood-hit village with fictional characters to explore resilience, political change and social divisions.
  • Indian filmmaker Anurag Kashyap is helping present the film internationally ahead of its UK premiere.

When floods cut off a remote village in southern Bangladesh, its residents attempted to protect their homes by building a dam themselves. Their determination became the starting point for Delupi, the debut feature by filmmaker Mohammad Touqir Islam, which brings together environmental disaster, political upheaval and the lives of ordinary people.

The film began with two events that shaped Bangladesh in 2024. A student-led uprising led to the fall of Sheikh Hasina’s government, while severe floods affected several parts of the country. In an exclusive interview with Eastern Eye, Touqir explained how these events led him to Deluti Union in Paikgachha, Khulna, where he found a story of people relying on one another when outside help failed to arrive.
