Vicky Kaushal has his plate full with several high-profile projects, one of them being the much-awaited period drama Takht. Announced in 2018, Takht is the next directorial venture of ace filmmaker Karan Johar after his Ranbir Kapoor, Anushka Sharma and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan starrer Ae Dil Hai Mushkil (2016).

After facing some delay in production, the movie is set to roll in early 2020. Vicky Kaushal, who plays a prominent part in Takht, reveals that he will start shooting for Karan Johar’s historical drama in February 2020.

“We will start shooting for Takht in February. The preparations are in full force at the moment. I will first finish the shooting of Sardar Udham Singh and then move ahead with the shooting of Takht,” says the National Film Award winning actor.

Takht is a multi-starrer. Besides Vicky Kaushal, it also features Anil Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Alia Bhatt, Janhvi Kapoor, Ranveer Singh and Bhumi Pednekar. The Uri: The Surgical Strike (2019) actor says that he is looking forward to working with such an ensemble cast.

“It is a huge film with a huge star cast. I am very excited to experience how all the actors of the film act in one frame. I just hope that I do not overact in excitement! I hope the film shapes up well,” says Kaushal.

Before he starts shooting for Takht, Vicky Kaushal will be seen in Dharma Productions’ another film Bhoot Part 1 – The Haunted Ship. Earlier scheduled to roll into theatres on 15th November, the horror flick will now arrive on 21st February, 2020.

Anurag Kashyap booked for 'will urinate on Brahmins' comment, apologises for crossing the line

Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap is at the centre of a legal and public controversy after his social media comment targeting the Brahmin community triggered backlash and police action. A formal complaint was lodged in Raipur by Pandit Neelkanth Tripathi, a key member of the Rashtriya Brahman Mahasangh, prompting local police to file an FIR under the new Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita for allegedly promoting disharmony and offending religious sentiments.

Kashyap’s remark, made in response to a social media user who insulted him, was widely seen as offensive and derogatory towards Brahmins. The filmmaker admitted to responding in anger and acknowledged that his choice of words was inappropriate. In his apology, Kashyap said he acted out of character and hurt not just the community but also people close to him. “In the heat of the moment, I lost my temper and said things I shouldn’t have,” he wrote, stressing that many Brahmins have been part of his personal and professional life.

Oscar rule change confirms AI-generated films are now eligible for top awards

The Oscars have opened the door to films made with the help of artificial intelligence. In a move that aligns with the changing times in the film industry, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences confirmed that movies using AI tools can still qualify for top awards, but there’s a catch.

According to new rules released this week, the use of AI won’t automatically boost or reduce a film’s chance of earning a nomination. What matters most, the Academy said, is the extent of human creativity involved in the process. The message is clear: technology can assist, but it can’t replace the heart of a story, the people who tell it.
