When alia bhatt called valentine's day ‘overrated’, opened up about a bad date


Alia Bhatt has had enough of the craze around Valentine's Day. The actor had shared that she finds Valentine's Day ‘overrated’ when she had come on the celebrity talk show Koffee with Karan a decade ago. 

What Alia said about Valentine's Day

In the episode that aired in 2014, Alia appeared on the show with actor Parineeti Chopra. When Karan asked them about being single, Alia shared that she is okay to be single but feels bad when it's a holiday and she is surrounded by couples. She then added, “Valentine's Day is really overrated!”

When Karan said that she was saying so because she doesn't have a boyfriend, Alia said, “No! Valentine's Day and New Year's. Once my boyfriend took me out on Valentine's Day and he didn't talk to me the whole time. So I think it is overrated.”

More details

When Karan and Parineeti asked why and wanted to know what exactly happened, Alia added, "Didn't do anything, we were just small. We were young." Parineeti interrupted with a joke and said, “I think that's why he didn't talk to you because you didn't do anything!”

Cut to now, ten years later! Alia is now married to actor Ranbir Kapoor. The two tied the knot in April 2022 after dating for some years while shooting Brahmastra: Part One- Shiva. Alia announced her pregnancy in June 2022. On November 6, last year, the actor-couple welcomed their first child, a baby girl, named Raha.

Alia recently won her fifth Best Actress Filmfare award for Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahaani. She will be seen next in Jigra, which is being directed by Vasan Bala. Alia also has Love and War in the pipeline, which reunites her with director Sanjay Leela Bhansali. The film also stars Ranbir Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal.

Yatra 2 x reviews: 5 reactions from fans for jiiva and mammootty’s ys jagan biopic


Director Mahi V Raghav’s Jiiva and Mammootty-starrer Yatra 2, the sequel to the 2019 film Yatra, released on Thursday. The film is a biopic on the life of the current Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, while the previous film was based on his father, ex-CM YS Rajasekhara Reddy’s life. If the reviews on X are anything to go by, the film is an engaging watch with a few drawbacks. Here are some of their reactions. 

‘Worth a watch with family’

One fan wrote that the film is worth a watch even if you’re not interested in politics or YS Jagan. They wrote on X, “Simply Superb! Relived YSJagan from 2009 to 2019. Worth watching with family even if you are not in to politics. Great execution @MahiVraghav garu! I promise no one will exit the theatre till last shot of end credits! #Yatra2Review #Yatra2 #SuperhitYatra2 #Yatra2JourneyBegins. (sic)”

They also revealed that the first half of the film was quite emotional. A fan also revealed that the song Marugainaava Raajanna was quite emotional, “Damnnnn Man!! I couldn't control my tears while "Marugainaava Raajanna" plays in YATRA 2. LEGENDARY STUFF! Goosebumps. (sic)”

‘Only for YSRCP fans’

A movie buff pointed out that while the film is good if you’re interested in AP politics, it might not work for the general public. They wrote, “#Yatra2, giving ratings is difficult but its a brilliant movie for ysrcp fans and headache for opposition party fans. @jeeva excelled in @ysjagan charecter. He looks and acts ditto as jagan. Dialogues are brilliant. Songs are extra. For ysrcp POV 3/5. For others POV 1/5. (sic)”

‘Cast and crew performed well’

One movie buff pointed out that the cast and crew of Yatra 2 performed well, writing, “#Yatra2 is fantastic. Every artist performed well. Every technician given their best output. Brilliant direction @MahiVraghav.” While another shared a video of a packed movie theatre, writing, “The hype is unreal #Yatra2 #YSJaganAgain. (sic)”

‘Feels a bit rushed’

Some fans thought that the film was a mixed bag, with a few scenes feeling rushed. “Yatra 2 - one of the finest biopics made in Telugu ( 3.75/5 ). Positives ~ Dialogues, Cinematography, Screenplay & elevations, Productions values, Jiiva & mamuka at their best. Negatives ~ Music & bgm, Few scenes feel a bit rushed. (sic)," one wrote.

But another fan liked the music and thought the film had an ‘exceptional’ first half, but a ‘satisfactory’ second half. “#Yatra2 A Heart Stirring Political Drama with Sensible Approach. @JiivaOfficial as #YSJagan & @mammukka as #YSR are apt lived in their roles. @MahiVraghav Done Great job. @Music_Santhosh (thumbs up and okay emoji). Engaging 1st half. Satisfactory 2nd half. #Yatra2Review #Mammootty #Jiiva. (sic)”

‘Watch on OTT’

Some fans however thought the film felt like a complete fabrication and was worth a watch only digitally. One of them wrote, “#Yatra2. Negitive:- Jagan characterisation. Whole story is not real. Positive:- Jagan in jail is realistic. Rating:- 0.5/10. Better to watch in ott (if u have patience). (sic)”

Rajinikanth overwhelmed after watching daughter aishwarya's lal salaam trailer ahead of release


Aishwarya Rajinikanth is all set for the release of her film Lal Salaam. Ahead of the release, Rajinikanth, who also has a cameo in the film, sat down with a few of their close people to watch the film's trailer. His reaction video has surfaced online and is winning hearts as Rajinikanth seems impressed. 

Rajinikanth's reaction to Lal Salaam trailer

In the video, Rajinikanth joined others at his Poes Garden house and watched the trailer in the living room area. He flashes a big smile and even looks a little emotional as the trailer ends. He was in his usual look.

Lal Salaam

Lal Salaam stars Vishnu Vishal and Vikranth and is billed as a sports drama that promotes religious harmony. While Rajinikanth will be seen in the role of Moideen Bhai in the film, cricket legend Kapil Dev will also star in the film in a special cameo. Vignesh, Livingston, Senthil, Jeevitha, KS Ravikumar, Thambi Ramaiah, Nirosha, Vivek Prasanna and Dhanya Balakrishna are also a part of the film in pivotal roles.

It is directed by Aishwarya Rajinikanth and officially marks her directorial comeback. The film is written by Vishnu Rangasamy. Backed by Subaskaran Allirajah of Lyca Productions, the film will release in theatres on February 9. AR Rahman has composed the music of Lal Salaam.

Aishwarya on directing Rajinikanth

Talking about the film in which she directed her father, Rajinikanth, Aishwarya told, “Directing Appa (father) was something I never expected in my life to start with, it was a blessing. To put it shortly, every single day of working with him was a mini masterclass – how he handles himself on set and as a professional, an artist in the industry.”

“His dedication, devotion and seriousness about work, even at this age and time of his life, is something I think everyone in the industry should learn. I think everyone around him is constantly learning from him all the time. He still feels he has so much to learn, and that, I think, is the beauty of the situation we were in. I cherish every moment like every other filmmaker who has worked with him. Appa etches his stamp on us as an artist and particularly in Lal Salaam, as an actor and performer, not just as an entertainer," she added.

Teri baaton mein aisa uljha jiya star shahid kapoor says ‘industry needs fresh content' ahead of film's release


Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon's latest film, Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya, is scheduled for a theatrical release this Friday morning. Even prior to its theatrical debut, the romantic comedy has already garnered a significant fan following. According to Sacnilk, Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya has generated ₹1 crore in revenue from advance bookings, selling 45,678 tickets for day one across India. The film, jointly directed by Amit Joshi and Aradhana Sah, stars Shahid and Kriti in leading roles, with veteran actors Dharmendra and Dimple Kapadia also featuring prominently.

Shahid Kapoor - ‘Industry needs to improve content in films’

Just hours before the theatrical release of Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya, Shahid Kapoor said that the Indian film industry needs to improve the content of films. He said this during an interview with journalist Siddharth Kannan.

Siddharth Kannan asked Shahid, “I am sure that there is no lack of opportunities for you in the film industry. Right?” Siddharth asked this question keeping in view of Shahid’s recent 2023 successes namely Freddy and Bloody Daddy.

Shahid responded, “Opportunities - for actors, filmmakers, and film producers - comes from the content that is written. I do feel that we are going through a phase wherein we need to improve and increase the quantity of good content. We need fresh content.”

Shahid Kapoor on how OTT platforms impact the footfall at theatres in India

Shahid Kapoor later outlined how an increase in the number of OTT platforms has impacted the footfall at theatres in India. “People have so many options in today’s world. There are so many streams (or OTTs) today that it is challenging for filmmakers to compel people to come to the theatres. Notably, most of the people who come to the theatres also get so much by sitting at home with a subscription. So, from this point of view, people nowadays think twice before buying a ticket because they can get something for free or at a minimal cost at home. So, I think times today are much more challenging than they were pre-Covid. I think the (film) industry is going through its toughest phase.”

Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya marks the debut collaboration between Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon. Furthermore, it signifies the first on-screen pairing of Shahid Kapoor with the legendary actor Dharmendra.
