Businessman Satyendra Tyagi allegedly lent Rs 5 crore to Remo, who borrowed the money to produce an upcoming film of his and promised to return him double the amount once the film released. The film in question was called Death of Amar, a thriller that starred Rajeev Khandelwal and Zareen Khan. However, Tyagi claimed that he never received his money. In 2016, he filed a case at the Sihani Gate police station in Ghaziabad. After Remo failed to appear before the court, the warrant was sent out by additional chief judicial magistrate Mahendra Rawat. The Bombay High Court, while dismissing Remo's anticipatory bail plea, also stated that no action was being taken against him right now since the warrant was yet to reach the Mumbai Police.
In the picture, Salman Khan is seen alongside Sohail Khan, Disha Patani, Jackie Shroff, Prabhu Deva, and Randeep Hooda. He captioned the picture, "And the journey begins." https://twitter.com/BeingSalmanKhan/status/1190195751105646597 Salman Khan had announced the film a few weeks ago after Sanjay Leela Bhansali's film Inshallah got shelved. Reportedly after shooting the current schedule of Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai, Salman Khan will resume the promotions of Dabangg 3. This will be the third collaboration between Salman Khan and Prabhu Deva after Wanted and Dabangg 3. Radhe is produced by Sohail Khan & Reel Life Production Pvt. Limited under the banner of Salman Khan Films. The film is reportedly the remake of the Korean movie, The Outlaws which released in 2017. It was directed by Kang Yoon-sung and starred Ma Dong-Seok and Yoon Kye-Sang. Also Read:
If reports are to be believed, then Randeep was approached to play the antagonist, and liked the role immediately. One also hears that the actor's character is something he has never played before. If things go as planned, he might start shooting for his part before the year ends. Meanwhile, he is also a part of Imtiaz Ali's yet untitled film starring Kartik Aaryan and Sara Ali Khan in lead roles. Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai will also reunite Salman with director Prabhudheva, after Wanted and the upcoming Dabangg 3. The action drama is going to be Salman's Eid special release in 2020. Reportedly, After Bharat, Disha Patani is once again joining Salman for this one too! However, contrary to what many think, this one is not a sequel to Wanted. “Radhe was my character’s name in Tere Naam and again, we used the same name for my character in Wanted But this (Radhe) is a completely different film. It has nothing to do with Wanted. If you want to go into that format or genre, then this will be a baap of Wanted,” Salman earlier said, at the trailer launch of Dabangg 3.
On Thursday, Dia Mirza took to Twitter to express her dismay at the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI)'s decision to host the India-Bangladesh T20 match on November 3 in Delhi despite severs to extreme pollution levels. She wrote on Twitter: “It is baffling that the @BCCI has decided to go ahead with the T20 match despite the AQI’s severe 412! This complete denial of the hazards of exposing ourselves to pollution is what cripples our ability to seek and implement swift solutions. #MyRightToBreathe #BreatheLife.” Dia posted another generic tweet on pollution and right to breathe. She wrote: “And it was baffling last year, and the year before that. Come on #India! Let’s work on acceptance and follow it with conclusive action. We have to shed this attitude of denial. The fundamental #RightToLife starts with our BREATH. #CleanAir #BeatAirPollution #MRTB #BreatheLife” Incidentally, in 2017, Dia was appointed as UN Environment’s Goodwill Ambassador for India and she often speaks passionately on such issues. https://twitter.com/deespeak/status/1189847299171602432 https://twitter.com/deespeak/status/1190184968384733184 After the Diwali celebrations, the air quality in Delhi dropped to the 'emergency' category.

A trade source says, “An announcement on the movie (tentatively titled Seven) was to appear this week with Hrithik Roshan as the lead. Apparently, the team along with Farah and her writers went to give a narration to Hrithik last week but he didn’t like it. He told the team to re-write some parts again and return with a fresh narrative. Earlier, it had been reported that Rohit and Farah were keen to make the remake of the 1982 Satte Pe Satta, directed by Romu N Sippy but the deal with Rajesh Vasani (who owned the remake rights), fell through. There were two hitches which came with that – Rohit, Farah and the team could not use the title Satte Pe Satta and the character of Babu, which has been created by original writers of Satte Pe Satta, Satish Bhatnagar, Kader Khan and Jyoti Swaroop.” Apparently, the lack of a double role was something that created an issue with Hrithik Roshan. “In Satte Pe Satta, the double role of Amitabh Bachchan as Ravi Anand (played by Bachchan), the good elder brother was balanced by the darker and pivotal character of Babu (again played by Bachchan), and who was also the antagonist. That would be an exciting character for anybody, including an actor like Hrithik to play and with that missing, something was lacking in the script. The makers were in talks with an international entertainment company for the official remake rights of the Hollywood musical Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (1954). The first draft didn’t have anything to do with Romu N Sippy’s Satte Pe Satta, as was the original plan. So now, Hrithik has told Farah and the team to re-write certain portions to make his character more exciting. Once they come back for another draft, will he decide whether he wants to do it or not.” Earlier Vasani had told Bollywood Hungama, “Anyone can always make the original movie Seven Brides For Seven Brothers, But, Seven Brides For Seven Brothers doesn’t have the second character of Babu (Amitabh Bachchan) as there was no double role in that film, so they can't make it a double role in Rohit and Farah's movie. No one can use the title Satte Pe Satta as it is registered with the producer's association under my name." Satte Pe Satta revolves around seven unkempt and uncouth brothers (orphans), living on a farmhouse, led by their oldest brother Ravi Anand (Amitabh Bachchan), who are taught manners and etiquette by a nurse Indu (Hema Malini). But everything becomes chaotic when Ravi’s lookalike and impersonator, Babu, turns up. He kidnaps Ravi as part of a plan by somebody (with evil intentions), who has hired him. Apart from Amitabh Bachchan and Hema Malini, Satte Pe Satta (1982) featured Sachin, Shakti Kapoor, Paintal, Sudhir, Inderjeet and Vikram Sahu as the rest of the six Anand brothers and Amjad Khan, Ranjeeta Kaur, Sarika, Kanwaljit Singh, Prema Narayan, Mac Mohan and Kalpana Iyer in other roles.

While the movie highlights the story of a Commando who is fighting for the nation under attack there has been so many heroes who have been Commandos themselves when the need of the hour was dire. The great leaders like Bhagat Singh, A.P.J Abdul Kalam, Ashfaqulla Khan, Maluana Abul Kalam Azad, and many more have been great Commandos who have fought for the nation in their capacity to bring about revolutionary changes. The Glorious Mary Kom, recently made history as she became the first boxer to win eight world championship medal. The Commando in her never stops to make the nation proud, despite the numerous obstacles she has faced! MS Dhoni took a 2 months sabbatical from international cricket duties to fulfil his long-standing dream of performing the duties for his battalion. The list is endless as there are so many unsung heroes who are inspiring us every day! Vipul Shah adds, "Our movie, Commando 3 has a strong story line. More than an action-thriller it's a human story. With the movie we want to convey that we all are one and there is a commando in each one of us. The way our nation comes together to help each other out during crisis is commendable. May that be giving someone a shelter during rains or Virat Kohli who is fighting on the cricket field. Commando 3 is our tribute to the commando that resides in each one of us." Director Aditya Datt shares, "United we stand is the point we want to drive home with our movie because at a humane level our emotions are similar. Commando 3 is celebrating the bravado of the people of our Nation." Commando 3 stars Vidyut Jammwal, Adah Sharma, Angira Dhar and Gulshan Devaiah in lead roles.

Sources say Bhansali has offered the parts of the mentor and pupil to Ajay Devgn and Ranveer Singh. While Ranveer is fine with playing the passionate musical prodigy Baiju, Devgn apparently has reservations about playing the legendary Tansen. Sources say he has been there, done it before. “In Vipul Shah’s London Dreams in 2009 Devgn played the jealous musician who feels threatened by his friend Salman Khan’s talent. Devgn is not keen to be seen in the space again,” says an informed source. In the original Baiju Bawra in 1952, Surendra had played Tansen and Bharat Bhushan had played Baiju. The Oscar-winning Hollywood film Amadeus is also based on the same story of two talented musicians, the mentor being outdistanced by the pupil. The challenge for Sanjay Bhansali is to create a semi-classical music score to rival Naushad’s monumental score in Baiju Bawra. The original had imperishable classic songs like ‘Tu Ganga Mauj Main Jamuna Ka Dhara’, ‘Oh Duniya Ke Rakhwale’, ‘Man Tarpat Hari Darshan Ko Aaj’ and ‘Bachpan Ki Mohabbat Ko’.
Nawazuddin Siddiqui, who is currently promoting Motichoor Chaknachoor, said that the initial idea was to make the film in two parts so that question to shelve the project does not arise at all. He said that the first part received a good response and the makers are currently working on the sequel script. He said that he had spoken to Sanjay Raut a few months ago and the producer assured that the second part is in works. While there is no confirmed timeline for the sequel, Nawazuddin Siddiqui shared that the makers were busy with the elections and he is tied up with his films. Since it would require him to get into the skin of the character again, it will take time before the sequel happens. On the work front, Nawazuddin is awaiting his next release Motichoor Chaknachoor, a wedding comedy that is slated for November 15th, 2019 release. He has just wrapped up Bole Chudiyan, helmed by Shamas Nawab Siddiqui.
