10 months ago0

The debut film of Varun Dhawan’s niece Anjini Dhawan, Binny And Family, was all set to release on August 30. Bollywood Hungama has exclusively learned that its release has been postponed.

A source told Bollywood Hungama, “Binny And Family will now be released on September 20. The decision was taken collectively by the makers. They are overwhelmed with the response generated by the film at the test screenings. Also, those from the film industry, who have seen the film, have raved about the film’s subject and the performances. Hence, the producers realized that they should look at the best release period. After careful analysis, they realized that September 20 is apt and this is how the new release date was locked.”

It now remains to be seen when the trailer of the film will be unveiled. An industry expert commented, “Interestingly, Grandparents’ Day will be celebrated on Sunday, September 8. Since the film also revolves around the relationship of a girl with her grandmother and grandfather, the makers can make good use of it for the promotions.”

Besides Anjini Dhawan, Binny And Family also stars Pankaj Kapur, Himani Shivpuri, Rajesh Kumar, Naman Tripaathy and Charu Shankar and is written and directed by Ssanjay Tripaathy. It is produced by Mahaveer Jain Films and Wavebrand Productions and presented by Ektaa R Kapoor’s Balaji Telefilms, Shashank Khaitan and Mrighdeep Singh Lamba.

Binny And Family will now be released alongside Yudhra. Directed by Mom (2017) director Ravi Udyawar, it stars Siddhant Chaturvedi, Malavika Mohanan and Raghav Juyal, it is produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani’s Excel Entertainment. The first look posters were unveiled yesterday and they give the impression that Yudhra will be a violent action entertainer.

Interestingly, Balaji Telefilms also has one more film in September – The Buckingham Murders. It is produced by Ektaa R Kapoor, Shobha Kapoor and also Kareena Kapoor Khan. The talented actress also stars in the film in a lead role. The murder mystery is directed by Hansal Mehta.

Kangana Ranaut receives death threats ahead of Emergency release, seeks police action

10 months ago0

Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut has once again found herself at the center of a controversy. As her upcoming film, Emergency, nears its release date, the actress has reported receiving death threats and has called on law enforcement agencies in Maharashtra, Punjab, and Himachal Pradesh to take swift action.

Kangana Ranaut Faces Backlash Over Emergency
Kangana Ranaut, who is both the lead actress and director of Emergency, is facing severe criticism and threats, particularly from members of the Sikh community. The film, which portrays India’s former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi during the 1975 Emergency, has been accused of depicting Sikhs in a negative light. Harjinder Singh Dhami, president of the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC), has publicly demanded a ban on the film, asserting that it misrepresents Sikhs and perpetuates harmful stereotypes.

Dhami’s criticism comes amid ongoing concerns about Ranaut’s past remarks, which have been perceived as anti-Sikh and anti-Punjab. These allegations have only intensified the backlash against her latest project, Emergency.
Death Threats Surface Online
The situation escalated when a video featuring Punjabi influencer Viky Thomas Singh surfaced on social media. In the video, Singh is seen issuing a chilling threat to Kangana Ranaut, referencing historical figures who were involved in acts of violence. Singh’s words, “Agar hum sar katwa sakte hai toh sar kaat bhi sakte hai,” (If we can sacrifice our heads, we can also take heads) have sparked widespread concern.

Another man in the video threatened that if the film is released, Kangana would be met with violence, not only from Sikhs but from people of other faiths as well. The video quickly went viral, prompting a strong reaction from the public and raising serious concerns about Ranaut’s safety.
Kangana Ranaut Seeks Police Intervention
In response to the threats, Kangana Ranaut used social media to appeal for police protection. She tagged the official accounts of the Maharashtra, Punjab, and Himachal Pradesh police, urging them to investigate the matter and ensure her safety. “Please look into this,” she wrote.
