Vicky Kaushal and Kiara Advani start shooting for Dharma Productions’ Mr Lele

According to reports, Vicky Kaushal and Kiara Advani have started shooting for Dharma Productions’ next Mr Lele. The film hit the shooting floor last week in Mumbai.


Shashank Khaitan, who has previously helmed such successful films as Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania (2014), Badrinath Ki Dulhania (2017), and Dhadak (2018) for Dharma Productions, is directing his fourth film under Karan Johar’s banner.

A source informs a publication, “Kiara Advani and Vicky Kaushal started shooting for the film last week in Mumbai. For now, they will be filming in the city and will then move to other locations depending on the Covid situation there.”

Mr Lele was originally planned with Bollywood star Varun Dhawan. Producer Karan Johar had even announced the project officially on Twitter by sharing the first-look poster featuring the actor. But later, the news emerged that Dhawan walked out of the film citing creative differences.

However, Shashank Khaitan had something else to say about the film getting shelved. “We were not able to form a flow for the shoot. It was a small film that was to be based in Mumbai, but things were not falling in place. I kept feeling that something is not right. Since Karan, Varun and I collectively felt it, we decided to hold off the project for the time being,” he had said.

He then took the film to Vicky Kaushal who readily agreed to come onboard. The film will reunite Kaushal with Kiara Advani after a gap of three years. The duo was last seen together sharing the screen space in Netflix’s anthology film Lust Stories.

Mr Lele also features Bhumi Pednekar in the lead role. The actress will reteam with Vicky Kaushal after Bhoot Part One: The Haunted Ship (2020), produced by Dharma Productions.

Kim Kardashian’s wedding dress moment goes viral: Hollywood’s new leading lady?

Kim Kardashian is back in a wedding dress, but this time, it’s strictly for the cameras. The 44-year-old reality star and entrepreneur was recently spotted filming a wedding sequence for All’s Fair, an upcoming legal drama from acclaimed producer Ryan Murphy.

Dressed in a strappy white gown and flowing veil, Kim was seen holding hands with co-star Matthew Noszka on a Malibu beach. The scene even included a dramatic kiss, with Noszka all suited up in pastel blue dipping her for the moment. While the images set social media abuzz, this isn’t the start of a new marriage for Kim—it’s just part of her latest acting role.



This marks Kim’s second collaboration with Murphy after her role in American Horror Story: Delicate. Over the years, she has taken on smaller acting roles, including film cameos and voice work. However, All’s Fair signals a bigger step into scripted television, featuring an all-star cast that includes Naomi Watts, Glenn Close, and Sarah Paulson. The series reportedly centres on an all-female team of divorce lawyers in Los Angeles, with Kim not only acting but also serving as an executive producer alongside her mother, Kris Jenner.

Chiranjeevi faces backlash over sexist comment about 'grandson and family legacy'

Megastar Chiranjeevi has found himself in hot water after making comments that many have labelled as sexist during a recent public appearance. Speaking at the pre-release event of Brahma Anandam, the actor expressed his desire for a grandson, sparking a wave of criticism online for what some called outdated and regressive views on gender.

Chiranjeevi joked that his home feels like a "ladies' hostel," with him playing the role of the warden, surrounded by granddaughters. He revealed that he often urges his son, actor Ram Charan, to have a boy to carry on the family legacy. "I keep telling Charan, at least this time, have a boy so our legacy continues," he said, adding, "I’m scared he might have another girl." Ram Charan and his wife, Upasana, welcomed their daughter, Klin Kaara, in June 2023.


The actor’s remarks didn’t sit well with many, who took to social media to call out the underlying gender bias. One user pointed out that such comments reflect a persistent societal mindset that prioritises male heirs over female children. "It’s disappointing to see someone of his stature perpetuate these outdated ideas," the user wrote. Another criticised Chiranjeevi for not using his influence to challenge stereotypes, saying, "Every child, regardless of gender, is a blessing and can carry forward a legacy."
