Well-made mythological shows have always managed to catch viewers’ fancy. And as technology improves year by year and empowers makers with great facilities in terms of VFX and cameras for that matter, the quality of such shows has also improved considerably.

Today, every general entertainment channel in India has one or two mythological shows in their bouquet. If reports are to be believed, Star Bharat is also gearing up to launch a new mythological series based on Lord Krishna.

Titled Haathi Ghoda Paal Ki Jai Kanhaiya Laal Ki, the show is set to be mounted on a lavish scale. Producer Siddharth Kumar Tewary, who has previously bankrolled some of the biggest mythological and historical shows on Indian television, is set to produce the upcoming series under his production house, Swastik Productions.

“Mythological and divine stories have the capability of breaking through various demographic barriers. The stories of Krishna have always been engaging and inspirational for each age group in our country. His teachings have been so impactful that they are relevant in today’s times as well. Our upcoming show (Haathi Ghoda Paal Ki Jai Kanhaiya Laal Ki) will unfold the story of his childhood days and highlight different facets of Krishna’s early life. We are happy to collaborate with ace Producer Siddharth Kumar Tewary for this iconic and epic show,” a well-placed source informs an entertainment portal.

There is no update on who all have been roped in to play lead characters in Haathi Ghoda Paal Ki Jai Kanhaiya Laal Ki. But from what we hear, the makers are looking at launching the show in the month of August, around the festival of Janmashtami.

26 years of 'Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam': 5 highlights that made the Bhansali film iconic

It’s been 26 years since Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam hit the big screen, but Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s rich, emotional tale of love and longing still lingers in the hearts of movie lovers. Starring Salman Khan, Aishwarya Rai, and Ajay Devgn, this film was a cultural moment. Here are five things you may not know about this now-iconic musical drama.

Before he became one of the most beloved voices of the 2000s, singer KK got his big Bollywood break with the heart-wrenching song Tadap Tadap. The track, composed by Ismail Darbar and written by Mehboob, captured the raw ache of lost love, and KK’s soul-stirring vocals made it unforgettable. Few know that Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam was his first major entry into Hindi cinema, thanks to Bhansali's knack for spotting rare talent.

SS Rajamouli builds £4.8 million Varanasi set in Hyderabad as 'SSMB29' prepares for Kenya shoot with Mahesh Babu and Priyanka Chopra Jonas

SS Rajamouli isn’t holding back with SSMB29, his latest big-screen spectacle starring Mahesh Babu, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, and Prithviraj Sukumaran. The filmmaker, known for his visual scale and attention to detail, has recreated the holy city of Varanasi in Hyderabad’s Ramoji Film City instead of shooting on location. The reason? The chaotic logistics of filming in the spiritual capital of India.

The set, rumoured to cost £4.8 million (₹50 crore), is a massive replica built specifically for a key sequence in the film. Leaked photos from the set have already gone viral online, giving fans a glimpse of the scale Rajamouli is aiming for. Mahesh Babu will be filming an action sequence here, with VFX work enhancing the visuals. In true Rajamouli style, international graphics studios, some of the best from Hollywood, have been roped in to bring the visuals to life.

Jason Isaacs confirms equal pay of £32,000 for all 'The White Lotus' actors despite veteran status

Jason Isaacs has revealed that every cast member of The White Lotus Season 3, regardless of experience or fame, earned the same salary: £32,000 (₹33,60,000) per episode. That totals around £256,000 (₹2,68,80,000) for the full eight-episode run. While that figure might seem significant, Isaacs called it “a very low price” for a hit HBO show, but said he had no complaints.

“We would’ve paid to be in it,” Isaacs said in an interview, adding, “We probably would’ve given a body part.”

Disney Plus removes James Cameron’s 'The Abyss' in UK over banned rat scene

Nearly four decades after its release, James Cameron’s 1989 sci-fi thriller The Abyss has sparked controversy again, this time on streaming. Disney+ quietly pulled the newly uploaded 4K remaster of the film from its UK platform after complaints resurfaced about a banned scene involving live animal testing.

The specific scene, showing a rat being submerged in oxygenated liquid, has long been a point of contention in the UK. Though the rat reportedly survived the experiment during filming, the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) had previously ruled it in breach of the Cinematograph Films (Animals) Act 1937. As a result, the sequence was cut from all UK theatrical, television, DVD, and Blu-ray releases. Yet, when Disney+ added the remastered version in April, the uncut version slipped through, triggering backlash from animal welfare groups.
