Indian producer Prerna Arora is including intimacy coordination clauses in actors’ legal agreements. Arora, known for acclaimed films “Toilet: Ek Prem Katha” and “Pari” is believed to be one of the first Indian producers to do so.
Intimacy coordination is a nascent field in Indian cinema with Aastha Khanna Bhardwaj (Netflix’s “Murder Mubarak”) being one of the pioneers in the Hindi-language Bollywood industry and Jayalakshmi Sundaresan (“Iruttu Araiyil Murattu Kuththu”) in the Tamil-language Kollywood industry. Shakun Batra’s Prime Video film “Gehraaiyaan,” headlined by Deepika Padukone, was one of the first Bollywood films to have a dedicated intimacy department and the team included Bhardwaj, Dar Gai and Neha Vyas.
Arora recognized the need to formalize protocols surrounding intimate scenes in response to industry-wide discussions on the importance of creating a supportive and respectful atmosphere on set.

Manoj Bajpayee: The National Film Award winner, who is from village Belwa in West Champaran district, applied for admission into the National School of Drama (Nsd) four times, but got rejected on each occasion. That did not stop him from pursuing his celluloid dreams and attaining the fame he could never have dreamt of.
He made his film debut with a one-minute role in the 1994 Naseeruddin Shah-Om Puri-starrer ‘Drohkaal’, followed by a minor role as a dacoit in Shekhar Kapur’s much-acclaimed ‘Bandit Queen’.

Merry Christmas Box Office Collection Day 4 Early Estimates (PC: IMDb)
It remains unfortunate that a masterpiece like Merry Christmas hasn’t been able to pick up the momentum yet. Sriram Raghavan’s AndhaDhun began on a similar note in 2018, but the buzz by now was sky-high. Despite highly favorable reviews, that isn’t the case with this mystery thriller. Scroll below to learn how Katrina Kaif and Vijay Sethupathi’s film faired on Makar Sankranti!
First things first, there may not be new releases in Bollywood, but Merry Christmas isn’t the only option at the ticket windows. Shah Rukh Khan‘s Dunki, Salaar’s Prabhas, and Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal are still adding footfalls, although minimal. In addition, the latest Telugu releases like Guntur Kaaram, HanuMan, and Saindhav are also stealing its limelight.

We have just celebrated Christmas, and many are still in their celebratory mood. At such a time comes a movie that won’t go unnoticed – Merry Christmas. The title seems to be the first element for the film to create intrigue. Coming from the Sriram Raghavan vault adds to the curiosity. Apparently all Sriram Raghavan titles are noteworthy, they keep you thinking and compel to watch it. It does not end there; it is the lead cast that is the icing on the cake – Katrina Kaif and Vijay Sethupathi! The film is positioned in a semi retro style and the same is transported on screen.

The upcoming series ‘P.I Meena’ has unveiled its trailer and it boasts of a dark, and intriguing, narrative, showing itself to be hardcore and intense detective drama. Following a murder made to look like an accident, actress Tanya Maniktala’s character of Meena, a private investigator, ends up encountering something far more dangerous.
Meena is a private investigator and while a brilliant detective as alluded to by the trailer, the cases that she has been handling have been rather menial for her, or at least not satisfactory to her at all.
One day, Meena ends up encountering a case, which may just become for her the case of a lifetime.
The synopsis of the series states: “A young private investigator is the eyewitness of a road accident. A young man is hit by a speeding truck. Happens all the time. Or, does it?

Actor Anjumm Shharma has revealed how he did not read Arnab Ray’s ‘Sultan of Delhi’, as he felt it would cloud his perception of playing the character of Bangali in the Milan Luthria’s directorial series. Talking about his adaptation of the character Bangali, Anjumm said: “After the first reading with Milan sir, I had started to develop a sense of the character and understand his background.”
“Though I had the book from the very beginning, I chose not to read it as I had already chosen a path in which I wanted to see my character,” he said.
Anjumm added: “I thought it was best for me not to read the book, as it would create a different perception of the character in my head which would hamper my preparation.”

Sultan Of Delhi (Disney+Hotstar; 9 Episodes)
Starring Tahir Raj Bhasin, Mouni Roy, Anjum Sharma, Vinay Pathak, Anupriya Goenka, Nishant Dahiya, Mehreen Pirzada , Harleen Sethi
Directed by Milan Luthria, Suparn Verma
Once upon a time, Milan Luthria directed a film about gangsters called Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai. Not that it was any great shakes. But compared to Luthria’s new homage to gangsterism, it was a masterpiece.
The new monsterpiece stretching into nine episodes should have never been made. It is hideously bad in plotting and woefully inadequate in execution. The sets are tacky: a refugee camp in the opening episode looks like a college canteen.
Dull and cheesy, it establishes an immediate yawn sumbandh with the audience, provided there is an audience for these tales glorifying gangsters and sociopaths who should ideally be placed in the trashcan of anonymity.
Just weeks ago we had the sultans of sleaziness...

Period dramas are the current rage in the Ott space. Many streaming giants suddenly have a budget to recreate a decade, place a believable story in the setting, and sell it by using the nostalgia factor. There is nothing better than the reminiscence of a decade that viewers consider special to them. Milan Luthria is known to have delivered many period movies in the past. The Dirty Picture, Once Upon a Time in Mumbai, and Ouatim Dobaara! are some of his noted works that garnered some attention. He is back with another period show, Sultan of Delhi, that talks about the capital city and the workings of the rich businessmen around the clout of powerful politicians. The show is a Disney+ Hotstar special released on October 13, 2023, and is based on the novel Sultan of Delhi: Ascension by Arnab Ray.

Disney+ Hotstar, as a streaming giant, is on a roll, releasing back-to-back web series with interesting stories. The Freelancer last month was an interesting tale of Indian mercenaries. We also had another addition to the Commando series directed by Vipul Amrutlal Shah, which was about a soldier who carried out a daring solo mission to extract his colleague from a prison in the neighboring country. Aakhri Sach, a police crime drama based on the Burari deaths, was a decent adaptation of the real-life incident. These shows restored viewers’ faith in the streaming giant, for they could see and enjoy diverse content on it. Milan Luthria’s Sultan of Delhi is yet another addition to this long list of television shows that expands the channel’s portfolio.

Actress Anupriya Goenka has spilled the beans on how she prepared for her character ‘Shankari’ in the web series ‘Sultan of Delhi’, revealing how she made a backstory to understand her role.
Being a part of a Milan Luthria project is no joke and every role is integral, equally important and well designed and thought off. When the director and his vision is on point, actors do feel the pressure to prepare extremely well for their respective roles.
Talking about how she prepared for her role in the series, Anupriya said: “It is one of the most difficult characters that I have played so far as earlier I have played roles where the character is doing the right things, and has mostly taken responsibility of the people around her, and I could relate to that but Shankari is a very vicious character who can harm innocent people for her goals.

Actor Nishant Dahiya, who is awaiting the release of his upcoming streaming series ‘Sultan Of Delhi’, has shared that for him his character in the series is very ‘far-fetched’ and that it is diametrically opposite to him as a person.
In the series, Nishant essays the role ofthe antagonist, R P Singh, and for him stepping into the shows of the character was quite challenging, and having no commonality with the character made it even tougher.
Talking about the same, Nishant said: “I think the most challenging part in playing Rp was the initial part of understanding why he is the way he is and trying to figure out what turned him into what he is today, understanding his thought process, his psyche and trying to create things in my head to feel exactly the way Rp feels.”
He further mentioned: “That was the most difficult thing in terms of adapting to this character.
