Sunny Deol, Sanjay Dutt, Jackie Shroff & Mithun Chakraborty join forces to create a desi Expendables

Filmmaker Ahmed Khan and Zee Studios are set to bankroll a high-profile film that will feature Bollywood's top action stars in lead roles. Titled Baap, the film will star Mithun Chakraborty, Sunny Deol, Sanjay, Dutt, and Jackie Shroff while Vivek Chauhan has been roped in to call the shots.

A source in the know informs an Indian publication, "The baap of action Mithun Chakraborty, Sunny Deol, Sanjay Dutt, and Jackie Shroff are teaming up on a dhamakedaar action entertainer. The film goes on floors within a month with a marathon schedule. The movie will be shot at multiple locations, including a studio in Mumbai.”


According to the source, Ahmed and co. want to bring back the action stars, who have been here since the 80s, together in a single film.

"It's more of a desi Expendables, as all the four men are historically known for having an action image among the masses," the source added.

The film is in the planning stage for over a year now, and the makers finally have all the logistics in place, as also a script that justifies the presence of the four stars.

Meanwhile, Sunny Deol will next be seen in Gadar 2 and Chup. Sanjay Dutt is awaiting the release of Shamshera with Ranbir Kapoor. Mithun Chakraborty was most recently seen in Vivek Agnihotri’s The Kashmir Files. Jackie Shroff also has some interesting projects in the pipeline.

Although it is in vogue to create daring or outlandish interpretations by decontextualising original works, the jury’s still out regarding how effective many of these servings actually are. This applies equally to Stratford’s RSC’s recent outputs – including King John and Macbeth – both of which were problematic from a traditional or puritan perspective.

Their latest production of Much Ado About Nothing, directed by Michael Longhurst, is no exception. The production is – at best – a mediocre comedy that raises a few titters and – at worst – an exceptional disappointment.

Martin Scorsese joins Neeraj Ghaywan’s ‘Homebound’ as executive producer ahead of Cannes 2025 premiere

Legendary director Martin Scorsese has come on board as the executive producer for Homebound, the second feature film from Neeraj Ghaywan. The movie, featuring Ishaan Khatter, Janhvi Kapoor, and Vishal Jethwa, will have its world premiere at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival in the Un Certain Regard section.

Scorsese’s involvement is a major moment for Indian cinema. He first noticed Ghaywan after watching his acclaimed 2015 debut Masaan, which also premiered at Cannes and won two major awards. When Melita Toscan du Plantier introduced him to Homebound, Scorsese was immediately drawn to its story and cultural depth. “I loved Neeraj’s first film, and when I read this new project, I felt I had to support it. It’s a beautifully crafted film and an important contribution to Indian cinema,” Scorsese said in a note shared by producer Karan Johar.

Kanye West says he should have started a family with Paris Hilton, instead of Kim Kardashian

Kanye West is once again in the headlines, and again not for good reason. In a messy livestream, the rapper said he should have had children with Paris Hilton instead of his ex-wife Kim Kardashian. According to West, partnering with Hilton would have secured him a bigger slice of the Hilton hotel fortune, something he now feels he missed out on.

Speaking on Twitch, Kanye bluntly said, “Kim was Paris Hilton’s assistant. I should’ve had babies with Paris Hilton over Kim Kardashian!” He even joked that he would have been staying in Hilton hotels by now if that had happened. Moments after the rant, Twitch shut down his stream and banned him.
