Actor Emraan Hashmi, who is gearing up for his upcoming streaming series ‘Showtime’, feels that he is not fit to be a producer. The actor shared that he has only produced one film so far in his career but there too he was more of a “silent producer” as he was acting in it as well. The film in question is the 2019 film ‘Why Cheat India’. The actor confessed that he is more of a creative person than a finance-related one.
“I don’t think I’m fit to be a producer. I did produce one film, but I was more of a silent producer and was playing the actor also in it, so my producer self took a backseat. I am a more creative person than a business-minded person. I got a commerce degree, but there’s a running joke in my family that I wanted to be in arts,...

Bloody Daddy has an intense and focused Shahid Kapoor playing daddy to a young teenaged son who reacts to every effort of the father to reach out with, ‘Whatever’, ‘Dad, Chill’ and whatever jargon kids use to feel cool.
The script itself tries hard to be urbane, cool, and a little chic. Almost the entire plot is set in a 7-star hotel owned by a sleazy but subliminally wired to be humane if needed, Ronit Roy, who is, as usual, first-rate. Watch him closely in the sequence where tries to be sweet to a kidnapped boy. Ronit eclipses all the other talented actors in the room, barring Sanjay Kapoor who is impossible to eclipse as he always stands out, and not in a good way.
The film’s canvas is cluttered with talented actors, mostly male, trying hard to grind their teeth and look sinister while also making every effort...

Shahid Kapoor has been at the pinnacle ever since Vishal Bharadwaj’s Kaminey and Haider, where he peaked and entered his second phase as an actor. Representing himself as a serious performer, he has shed his chocolate boy image to become a menacing anti-hero in his recent films and web series. If Kabir Singh was an angry man with a thermometer and a stethoscope, Sumair, in Bloody Daddy, is Kabir Singh wielding knives and guns. The similarity is difficult to miss as you see him shouting and summoning the same rigor in his voice, even though he is placed in a completely different circumstance here. Sumair seems to have the same behavioral traits as Kabir, but when he sees a man forcing himself on a woman, it enrages him. Sumair at least understands consent. Apart from that, he is an incessantly irresponsible father and an alcoholic, and he doesn’t...

Revathi’s Phir Milenge (2004) dealt with the subject of AIDS; her latest directorial Salaam Venky is again a medical / illness slice-of-life drama centered around a true story of Kolavennu Venkatesh, a 24-year-old chess player, dealing with the subject of a person suffering from Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (Dmd) and euthanasia. Bollywood has seen a story on the subject of euthanasia not so long ago in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Hrithik Roshan-Aishwarya Rai starrer Guzaarish (2010). Salaam Venky may be telling a sad story, but it picks up hints from the evergreen Rajesh Khanna-Amitabh Bachchan starrer Hrishikesh Mukherjee’s Anand (1971), “Zindagi badi honi chahiye, lambi nahin” (roughly meaning life should be lived to the fullest); where the patient is aware of his illness but takes it in his stride and stays cheerful. On similar lines, the protagonist Venky picks up lines and references from popular films’ characters and tries to keep everyone cheerful.

The actress told Ians: “I truly believe that our Hindi film industry is one of the most forward-thinking industries and we don’t have a choice simply for the fact that a lot of money is riding on it and a lot of stakeholders are involved in Hindi films. It’s not just Hindi films that are facing the heat in theatres, films across the world are facing the issue of a low footfall in theatres because the pandemic has triggered a change in behavioural pattern of the audience.

Vishal said, “This film has some powerful actors, each with their unique style of acting. All of them have the power to pull off anything in front of the camera.

Ateet movie review is here: The Zee5 original movie is streaming on Zee5from April 21, 2020. Helmed by Tanuj Bhramar, the movie stars Rajeev Khandelwal along with Sanjay Suri, and Priyamani Raj.
Immediate reaction when the end credits roll
So, can anyone will name his/her child as ?Ateet? (means past). More than how did this sleeping pill got sanctioned to be streamed on Zee5, am more curious to know how can a person?s first name can be ?Ateet? ( past).
The Story of Ateet
A war hero Ateet (Rajeev Khandelwal) once considered dead during a military operation comes back after a miraculous escape and his arrival starts haunting the peaceful life of his commanding officer during the operation Colonel Vishwa (Sanjay Suri), Colonel Vishwa?s wife Jahnvi (Priyamani Raj) and their daughter Sanah (Deshna Dugad).
Ateet review
A sleep fest right from the word go, Ateet is a bad memory...
