Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham fans can rejoice as they get to see their Fast & Furious characters Hobbs and Shaw once again. After the stupendous success of the spin-off Hobbs & Shaw, the makers are currently developing the sequel.
During Instagram live Q&A, Dwayne Johnson confirmed that they are currently working on the script and trying to figure out the creative and direction of it. "We are developing now the next film, the next [Hobbs & Shaw] movie, and I'm pretty excited about it. Just gotta figure out the creative right now, and the direction we’re going to go." He thanked the fans for making the spin-off a huge success.
Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham reprised their roles as Luke Hobbs and Deckard Shaw in the first installment. In the film, when cyber-genetically enhanced anarchist Brixton (Idris Elba) gains control of an insidious bio-threat that could alter humanity forever — and bests a brilliant and fearless rogue MI6 agent (The Crown’s Vanessa Kirby), who just happens to be Shaw’s sister — these two sworn enemies will have to partner up to bring down the only guy who might be badder than themselves. It was directed by David Leitch (Deadpool 2).
Is Ekta Kapoor miffed with Kartik Aaryan? Apparently the Queen of Soaps offered him a feature film. Yes, Ekta does produce films as well. But Kartik turned the lady tycoon down. Much to her shock and dismay, apparently Ms Kapoor, not used to being turned down, has not taken this snub very well.
Some investigation into the royal snub reveals further details. Says an informed source, “Kartik first offered her the age-old ghisa-pita excuse of dates nahin hai. Shrugging his shoulders helplessly .But it seems Kartik and Ekta couldn’t agree on the payment.”
Ekta Kapoor is known to not pay her actors unreasonable amounts of money .After a string of hits Kartik’s fee has shot up sky high. Apparently, goaded by his over-enthusiastic team, the Lukka Chuppi star is asking for a fee higher than Varun Dhawan and Shahid Kapoor.
Salman Khan lost a family member this week. The actor’s nephew Abdullah Khan died in a Mumbai hospital on Monday, March 30, due to heart failure. He was 38. The Dabangg 3 actor took to social media to mourn the latter's death. On March 31, Salman Khan shared a picture of himself with Abdullah and wrote, "Will always love you...."
However, Salman Khan and his family are upset that they won’t be able to attend Abdullah’s funeral amid nationwide lockdown. Since the family is in Panvel and there are restrictions, he won’t be able to travel. Abdullah’s body has been taken to Indore which is his hometown where the last rites will be performed. Salman will visit the family later.
Salim Khan said that Abdullah was his nephew’s son and was very close to his family. Even during these times, the procedures were done smoothly. He said that they took necessary precautions before the body was taken to Indore via an ambulance.

Priyanka Chopra is doing her bit amid coronavirus pandemic. The actress, who is stationed in Los Angeles with her husband Nick Jonas, has announced that she will donate $100,000 in total to aid women who have been working in the industry amid this crisis or serving in security forces.
In a video, Priyanka Chopra said, “I hope you all are safe, this is a crazy time.” Talking about the campaign, she wrote, “Our worlds changed quickly, and needless to say, we couldn’t go forward with our original plans to launch this campaign.

A day, Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas donated to several charities including PM-CARES Fund, Unicef, Feeding America, and Goonj among many others to fight the coronavirus. “These organizations are doing amazing work by helping those impacted by #Covid19.

Just like some of the celebrities who were travelling, actress Juhi Chawla was abroad along with her husband Jay Mehta and kids Jahnavi and Arjun. They had scheduled their Austria trip on March 1 followed by London vacation.
Speaking to a daily, Juhi Chawla revealed when they were in Austria, the situation had started to become grim. It was only after when they reached London, the Indian government announced the Janta curfew along with restrictions on international flights. Since the Coronavirus pandemic had hit India, the foreign travellers were being checked at the airport and have made mandatory to stay indoors for 15 days as a precautionary measure.
Juhi Chawla revealed that whilst they were in London, they reached out to Indian High Commission for help and they assured that they could travel back to Mumbai safety. Juhi and her family returned on March 20 and since then have been in quarantine.
Bollywood Hungama had revealed that Shah Rukh Khan is teaming up with Siddharth Anand on an action film, which is a part of YRF’s 50 years celebration called YRF Project 50. We also informed our readers that the film will be announced in April. However, following the coronavirus pandemic across the nation, the workings in the film industry came to a stand-still and not much is known if YRF will go ahead with its plan of announcing a slate of releases in April.
However, we can confirm that the pre-production of Shah Rukh Khan’s next with Sidharth Anand had already begun and the same has hit the road block. “It’s a big scale action film, which was to be shot across the globe, and Siddharth Anand was planning to go on a recce to explore several virgin locations. However, he has dropped the plan now owing to the travel ban, and will go on a recce only once everything settles down,” revealed a source close to the development.
In the meantime, the director is working from home towards fine tuning the script and is in constant touch with both Aditya Chopra and SRK through video conference. The trio is also discussing other aspects of the film such as scale of action, probable locations, budget and working on the timelines of the shoot. “The idea was for SRK to shoot for two films this year – the Siddharth Anand actioner and Rajkumar Hirani’s feel good drama. But it is all a wait and watch scenario and there lies a strong possibility of his comeback film post Zero getting delayed further,” the source added.
Shah Rukh Khan’s last was a box-office flop, and ever since then the actor has taken time off to read scripts and retrospect on what went wrong. According to sources, he has rejected over 30 scripts in a span of last 2 years, and has finally decided on three of the most exciting stories, which will be shot one after another in next two years. The three scripts include Rajkumar Hirani, Sidharth Anand, and Raj and DK. Rajkumar Hirani is also working towards fine tuning his script. He is still contemplating on Ali Abbas Zafar’s Mr India and Atlee’s mass action film, which is being scripted. When will be start shooting is something we would know once all the travel restrictions are released. Stay tuned for more updates on Bollywood Hungama.

For months now we have all been wondering what RRR, the title of S S Rajamouli’s film meant. It turns out that the maverick director was trying to get the rights of the title Raghupati Raghav Rajaram. Having failed to acquire it, the RRR acronym was given another interpretation altogether.
The RRR now stands for Rise Roar Revolt in Hindi (and never mind if those words are in the English language). In Telugu it is Roudram Ranam Rudhiram and in Tamil it is Irattam Ranam Relattiram. All the conflicting multi-lingual interpretations to the RRR acronym could be a problem.
Rajamouli’s film titles have always been pithy, mostly one-worded like Eega, Magadheera, Baahubali. This is the first time he has selected multiple titles in different languages for the same film. Could be a matter of conflict for the film’s box office interests?

The latest to join the league is Katrina Kaif who took to her Instagram account to share that she will be donating money to both these funds. However, like Rajkummar Rao, Katrina Kaif has also not revealed the amount that she will be donating and the internet is lauding the Sooryavanshi actress. She posted a picture with the caption, “I pledge to donate to the PM CARES fund and the Chief Minister's Relief Fund Maharashtra. Heartbreaking to see the hardship and suffering this pandemic has unleashed in the world.”
