Blame it on the monotonous long runs of one episode with no scope left, ego clashes with the producers or more lucrative opportunities, there have been many instances where actors quit the shows that made them household names. Although, coming to think of it, not all exits are permanent.

Shah Rukh Khan's 'Jawan' crosses Rs 600 crore mark at global box office

New Delhi, The official trailer of Shah Rukh Khan-starrer "<keyword id="6363925" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="jawan" source="Orion">Jawan</keyword>" has arrived and it promises to take the fans on a ride filled with action, emotions and powerful dialogues. The trailer comes just seven days ahead of the Atlee directorial's release in three languages -- Hindi, Tamil and Telugu -- possibly the first instance for any mainstream movie. "Of Justice &amp; A Jawan. Of Women &amp; their Vengeance. Of a Mother &amp; A Son. And of course, a lot of Fun!!! Ready Ahhh!!! #JawanTrailer out now! #Jawan releasing worldwide on 7th September, 2023 in Hindi, Tamil &amp; Telugu," Shah Rukh posted on X, formerly Twitter, on Thursday. The trailer opens with shots of a wounded person floating on a river before he is rescued by a tribe. "Ek Raja tha, ek ke baad ek jung harta gaya. Bhookha, pyaasa ghum raha jungle me. Bohat gusse me tha," Shah Rukh's character says in the background. The next moment sees him taking commuters of a metro train hostage, along with his team, which includes Sanya Malhotra, Priyamani, Girija Oak, Sanjeeta Bhattacharya, Lehar Khan, and Aaliyah Qureshi. In one of the most cracky scenes, a voice from a handheld transceiver asks the actor, "What do you want?", to which he replies, "Chahiye to Alia Bhatt." And this is just the opening moments of the trailer, which offers a lot more to the fans than the movie's prevue, unveiled by the team in July. Throughout the trailer, Shah Rukh can be seen in multiple avatars, including one where he is sporting grey hair and another with a moustache. The variety of looks have inspired fan theories that the actor could be playing a double role in the movie. Nayanthara plays the cop who is tasked with bringing down Shah Rukh's vigilante character but in many moments, she is also seen romancing the actor. Actor Deepika Padukone also makes a special appearance and she is seen wrestling Shah Rukh to the ground in one of the scenes. The main antagonist is played by Vijay Sethupathi. His character is Kalee, who describes himself as the "fourth largest weapons dealer in the world". The trailer then takes a grim turn as it showcases plenty of gore, violence and bloodbath. Like Shah Rukh's blockbuster movie "Pathaan", "Jawan" also strikes a patriotic chord as the actor, donning the army uniform, is seen delivering the dialogue, "Hum Jawan hai. Apni jaan hazaar baar daav par laga sakte hai, lekin sirf desk ke liye.Tumhare jaise desh bechne walo ke liye hargis nahi. (I'm a soldier and I can give my life a thousand times, but only for the country, not for somone like you, who sell our country)." In one of the scenes, Shah Rukh's character makes and a grand entry with a cigar and a hammer. "Bete ko haath lagane se pehle, baap se baat kar (Before touching the son, deal with the father)," the character says. "Jawan" also stars Sunil Grover and Mukesh Chhabra in key roles. It is produced by Gauri Khan and co-produced by Gaurav Gupta under the production banner Red Chillies Entertainment.

"You must have heard the name. This is just the beginning... When I become the villain, no hero stands a chance against me," Shah Rukh's character says in the clip. In the video, the actor is seen sporting four looks -- his face almost covered with bandages, a clean shave, his face half-covered with a grey mask and a bald look. "Jawan" also stars Deepika Padukone in a special appearance, along with Sanya Malhotra, Priyamani, Girija Oak, Sanjeeta Bhattacharya, Lehar Khan, Aaliyah Qureshi, Ridhi Dogra, Sunil Grover and Mukesh Chhabra in key roles.

According to the video, Shah Rukh's character is aided by an army of women in his mission. "Good to go, Girls?" he asks, to which they respond in unison: "Ready, Chief!" Set to 'The King Khan' rap, a foot-tapping song by Raja Kumari, the "Jawaan" footage ends with the star dancing to the classic Hemant Kumar song "Beqaraar Karke Humein" in a Metro train coach. "Jawan" is slated to be released worldwide on September 7 in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu. The film was earlier scheduled to premiere on June 2.

Taking to Twitter, BSP President Mayawati called for removing the objectionable content from the web series. Protests are being registered against some scenes hurting the religious and ethnic sentiments in the Tandav web series, in respect of which it would be appropriate to remove whatever is objectionable so that the atmosphere of peace, harmony and mutual brotherhood in the country is not spoiled anywhere, she said. According to the FIR, following public outrage expressed on social media platforms, the web series was viewed and it was found in the 17th minute of the first episode of the series that Hindu gods and goddesses have been allegedly presented in an "undignified manner' and shown using language which is hurtful to religious sentiments. Dialogues in the web series can incite caste anger, the FIR stated. It also alleged that the person occupying the high post of Prime Minister of India has been portrayed in a very belittling manner besides there are scenes in which castes have been presented as low and high and women in an insulting manner. The FIR further alleged that intent of the web series is to incite religious sentiments of a particular community and create enmity among classes.This act of the producer-director has hurt and incited religious and caste sentiments of the people, the FIR added. The FIR has been lodged under sections 153 A (promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence, language), 295 (injuring or defiling place of worship with intent to insult the religion of any class), 505 (1) (B) (statements conducing to public mischief with intent to cause, or which is likely to cause, fear or alarm to the public, or to any section of the public whereby any person may be induced to commit an offence against the State or against the public tranquility) and 469 (forgery for purpose of harming reputation) along with sections of the IT Act. Taking cognizance of complaints that Hindu gods and goddesses have been ridiculed in the web series, the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting had on Sunday sought an explanation from <keyword id="10265015" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="20" keywordseo="streaming-platform-amazon-prime-video">streaming platform Amazon Prime Video</keyword> on the issue, sources had said. The development came after BJP MP Manoj Kotak on Sunday said he has written to Information and Broadcasting Minister <keyword id="119642" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Prakash-Javadekar">Prakash Javadekar</keyword> seeking a ban on Amazon Prime Video's series 'Tandav' for ridiculing Hindu deities. "The ministry has taken cognizance of the matter (complaints) and asked Amazon Prime Video to explain," a source in the ministry had said. Kotak, the MP from Mumbai North-East, said different organisations and individuals have complained that Hindu gods and goddesses have been ridiculed in the 'Tandav' web series. When contacted about the complaints, Amazon Prime Video PR had said the platform "won't be responding" on the matter. The government recently brought OTT platforms such as Netflix, Amazon Prime Video and Disney+ Hotstar, besides other online news and current affairs content, under the ambit of the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, giving it powers to regulate policies and rules for the digital space.

Amitabh Bachchan’s fake pic, Deepika Padukone’s Insta update and other ways in which Bollywood adhered to 9 min at 9pm

<img class="gwt-Image" src="/photo/38989917.cms" /> 
Very soon it will be time for other channels to lose TRP and shows will seem less entertaining. Are you wondering why? Well, the big show of Indian television, <keyword id="26022" type="ENTERTAINMENT" weightage="100" keywordseo="bigg-boss">Bigg Boss</keyword>, is coming back for its 8th consecutive season. Unadulterated drama, passionate love stories and a lot more sizzlers await you on the small screen. But before the show hits the screen, here is a peek at celebrities who are expected to appear in the show as contestants. 
 
1. <keyword id="14606" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Shiney-ahuja">Shiney Ahuja</keyword> 
For Shiney Ahuja, there can be no better way to make a comeback. With a controversial past and the current state of joblessness, Bigg Boss can give a new lease of life to the star. 
 
2. <keyword id="1721650" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="Lulia-Vantur">Lulia Vantur</keyword> 
Are you wondering who she is? Lulia is the girl who hit the headlines when rumours were rife that she was dating none other than Salman Khan. It will be quite interesting to watch how she interacts with her ‘alleged’ beau (in case Sallu is there on the show). 
 
3. <keyword id="11647" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Alok-Nath">Alok Nath</keyword> 
After becoming an Internet sensation in no time with Babuji and Sanskaari jokes trending on Twitter, it was natural for Alok Nath to become a part of this drama. 
 
4. <keyword id="597184" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Poonam-Pandey">Poonam Pandey</keyword> 
With her track record of controversies, Poonam makes an ideal choice to be on the controversial reality show. But how would she survive without posting her hot pictures on social networking sites for 3 months? 
 
5. Hansika Motwani 
From a child actor to a leading lady in Southern cinema, Hansika has come a long way and is all set to make her reality TV debut. It will be fun to watch the hottie raising the heat and the channel’s TRP. 
 
6. Shaan 
Sweeter than the Bengali rasgulla, singer Shaan is also expected to be a part of the show. We just hope the soulful singer doesn’t lose his sweetness when he counters loads of roughness on the show. 
 
7. Rajneesh Duggal 
A model who gets romantically linked to a beauty on the show has been a Bigg Boss norm. Can the model-turned-actor Rajneesh Duggal fill in the gap and assure entertainment on the show? 
 
 
8. Deepika Singh 
It seems the television’s ideal bahu-turned-police inspector Sandhya (aka Deepika) has some serious fun and publicity on mind. Is that her way to get an entry to Bollywood? 
 
9. Bharti Singh 
Amid all the high-flying drama and non-stop tamasha, it will be quite a relief to watch Bharti tickling your funny bone. We just hope she doesn’t lose her sense of humour when plagued by controversies and a quirky atmosphere. 
 
10. Ameesha Patel 
This show has boosted the dwindling careers of many and may just help Ameesha Patel in that way. Ameesha was last seen in the movie Shortcut Romeo and needs to be in the forefront as she was in the days of Kaho Naa... Pyaar Hai. 
 
11. Shanti Dynamite 
Ranked as one of the 50 Sexiest Women of Asia by British newspaper Eastern Eye, Uganda-born Shanti runs her own production company in India that shoots adult music shows, AIDS awareness programmes and sex education material. She also claims to be the first Indian Playboy girl. 
 
12. Karan Tacker 
A popular TV star, who is currently wooing the judges on another popular dance reality show, Karan Tacker is yet another expected contestant. Will he be able to woo the ladies inside the house? 
 
13 &amp;14. Gurmeet Choudhary and Debina 
After watching Apurva and Shilpa creating some lovely moments on-screen, it’s time to welcome yet another star couple. And this time it is going to be Gurmeet and Debina. The two were last seen in Khatron Ke Khiladi. 
 
15. Sunil Grover 
Rumours are rife that star comedian Sunil Grover may also become a part of the much-talked-about reality show. If this happens, we are not likely to miss even a single episode.
