Sanju Poster: Director Rajkumar Hirani introduces Anushka Sharma

The upcoming Hindi film Sanju, which is a biopic on actor Sanjay Dutt, is one of the highly awaited movies of 2018. Starring Ranbir Kapoor as Sanjay Dutt, the film has been one of the major talking points ever since mounting the shooting floor. As promised, director Rajkumar Hirani has been taking to Twitter to introduce the whole cast of the biopic, giving insights into the eventful life Sanjay Dutt has led so far.

Today, the ace filmmaker took to Twitter to introduce Anushka Sharma. The actress is seen in an all different avatar, donning a retro look with short curly hair. She plays a pivotal role in the film helping the story to unravel. Hirani, however, did not reveal the character’s name Anushka plays in the movie. The audience will get to know more about her character tomorrow when the makers launch the trailer of the movie.


Sanju marks Anushka Sharma’s second association with filmmaker Rajkumar Hirani. After playing the female lead in Hirani’s massive blockbuster PK, the versatile actress will be seen in a special appearance in the biopic.

Sharing the latest poster on Twitter, Rajkumar Hirani said, "And here is my dear friend Anushka. It’s a special appearance....but she worked on every nuance of the role for days together. Can anyone guess who she plays?....Will reveal tomorrow at the trailer launch. @AnushkaSharma #RanbirKapoor #RajkumarHiraniFilms @VVCFilms @foxstarhindi".

Co-written and directed by Rajkumar Hirani, Sanju also stars Paresh Rawal, Manisha Koirala, Sonam Kapoor, Karishma Tanna, Dia Mirza, Jim Sarbh and Vicky Kaushal.

Produced by Vinod Chopra Films and Rajkumar Hirani Films in association with Fox Star Studios. Sanju rolls into cinemas on 29th June 2018.

2025 Oscars: Halle Berry, Scarlett Johansson, and A-List stars set to present

The Academy has unveiled a star-studded line-up of presenters for the 2025 Oscars, adding even more glamour to Hollywood’s biggest night. Joining the previously announced 2024 winners—Emma Stone, Cillian Murphy, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, and Robert Downey Jr.—are A-listers like Halle Berry, Scarlett Johansson, Penélope Cruz, Whoopi Goldberg, and Amy Poehler.

Comedian Conan O’Brien will host the event, marking his first time leading the prestigious awards show. The telecast is expected to acknowledge the impact of the devastating wildfires that hit Los Angeles earlier this year. O’Brien has stated that he wants the show to strike a balance between honouring Hollywood’s biggest achievements and recognising the challenges the city has faced.



A new twist on the Oscars' “Fab 5” format will also be introduced this year. Traditionally, past winners present acting awards while sharing personal tributes about the nominees. However, due to controversy surrounding one of this year’s nominees, the format has been adjusted to spotlight behind-the-scenes talent instead.

The new presenters include Elle Fanning, John Lithgow, June Squibb, and Bowen Yang, adding a mix of Hollywood veterans and fresh faces to the stage. While the specific categories they’ll present remain under wraps, tradition suggests last year’s Best Actor winner, Cillian Murphy, will hand out the Best Actress award, and Emma Stone will return the favour for Best Actor.

Rumours are swirling about a potential opening performance by Wicked stars Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, both nominated for their roles in the highly anticipated musical. While Grande remained coy about the possibility, fans are already buzzing with excitement.

The Oscars will air live on ABC and stream on Hulu, with a red-carpet pre-show kicking off at 6:30 p.m. ET. As the countdown begins, the Academy promises more surprises and announcements in the coming weeks.

With a mix of Hollywood royalty, heartfelt tributes, and a touch of Conan O’Brien’s signature humour, the 2025 Oscars are shaping up to be a night to remember.
