Salman Khan to release Veteran remake on Eid 2020?

After Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s much-awaited film Inshallah went into cold storage, everybody is curious to know which film Salman Khan is planning to release on Eid 2020. Inshallah, starring Salman Khan and Alia Bhatt in lead roles, was set to hit screens on Eid next year. However, that project is not happening anymore.

While sharing the news of Inshallah getting scrapped, Salman Khan had also announced that he will be retaining the Eid 2020 release date for another film. However, there has been no information regarding the movie that could be entering theatres on the date.


Earlier, some media outlets reported that Salman Khan might release Kick 2 on Eid 2020. However, filmmaker Sajid Nadiadwala put an end to all speculations by saying that the script of the film is not ready, so there is no question of Kick 2 hitting theatres next year on Eid. Then there were speculations about Dabangg 3 being shifted from its December 2019 date to Eid 2020. However, the makers have denied the news by releasing brand-new posters of the film yesterday, which mentioned 20th December, 2019 as the official theatrical release date of the film.

Now the news is coming in that Khan could either remake any popular South Indian film or work on the Hindi remake of hit Korean film Veteran (2015). If the latter mounts the shooting floor first, Khan’s brother-in-law Atul Agnihotri will be bankrolling the project as the remake rights of the film lies with him. He acquired the remake rights earlier this year. More details on the project are awaited.

Meanwhile, after Inshallah got shelved, superstar Akshay Kumar booked Eid 2020 for the release of his much-awaited horror-comedy Laxmmi Bomb. Also starring Kiara Advani in the lead role, the film is an official remake of hit Tamil film Kanchana.

Alia Bhatt’s altered images by Pakistani brand spark fresh debate on celebrity image rights

Highlights

When endorsement is assumed, not agreed

The unauthorised use of Alia Bhatt’s altered images by a Pakistani brand has reignited a familiar concern in digital advertising. Campaigns that visually mimic endorsements can easily blur the line between association and approval.

For audiences, such edits can appear credible at first glance. When a well-known face is integrated into promotional material, the assumption of endorsement often follows. Without clear consent, that assumption risks misleading consumers while benefiting from the celebrity’s influence.
