So happy to see @ParineetiChopra having back to back releases. A treasure of talent who has so much left unexplored. Hope she gets more and more exciting projects. #shaque#reportinglive
Imagine being so BIG that even with a superstar hero in the film, YOU were the main attraction.
That was Sridevi at her peak.
Films were mounted around her, audiences bought tickets for her, and she could command fees higher than male stars.
INDIA'S 1st FEMALE SUPERSTAR🔥
Just pick any Sridevi film from her peak and you’ll understand why. You can literally FEEL that aura, that commanding screen presence that made it almost impossible to look at anyone else when she was on screen.
@Apna_Bollywood It's every actress’s dream to be given equal space on a poster. to be seen as prominently as the hero. For most, that was almost unimaginable. But Sridevi made it a reality. She stood shoulder-to-shoulder with the hero, and at times, her presence was even greater. Her stardom 🔥
Army released on this day in 1996!
Sridevi! Shahrukh Khan!! And the Army of
Sudesh Berry as Khan
Mohnish Behl as Kabir

@Iwasamwill English Vinglish. Because it deserved to be watched by more people and make more business than it did.
Queen had a story catering to a more younger audience and performed better at the Indian BO. While EV performed exceptionally in international markets.
@puneetsharma7@BHAKTKRKka@TheDeolsFC Dont worry. He is another absolutely irrelevant guy on X. 6 followers..must be he himself following with 6 dummy accounts 🤣🤣🤣. Most of his posts dont have a single Like also. 🤣🤣 Also he single handedly wants to take down BhootBangla movie. 😂😂😂
Doordarshan pays tribute to the superstar of Indian cinema, Padma Shri Sridevi, on her death anniversary. Celebrated for her versatility across languages, iconic performances, and for pioneering strong female roles, she remains an enduring icon of Indian cinema.

CENSOR BOARD is OUTDATED
Not in the context of just @Actor_Vijay ‘s #JanaNayagan ‘s censor issues but in an overall manner, it is truly foolish to think that the censor board is still relevant today
It has long outlived it’s purpose, but it’s being kept alive out of laziness to debate it’s relevance now , and it is the film industry as a whole which is mainly responsible for this
We live in a time where a 12-year old with a phone can watch a terrorist execution filmed on a GoPro, a 9-year-old can stumble upon hardcore porn, and a bored retiree can binge extremist propaganda, indulge in conspiracy theories , from anywhere in the world, uncut, uncensored, algorithmically pushed. All of it is available instantly, anonymously, and without a gatekeeper.
At the same time, everybody in every wake of society speak in abusive language from new channels to YouTubers and from other apps ..If you quote that age old belief that cinema is a powerful medium , don’t ignore the fact that the social media has far more reach than cinema .and it is full of political venom, communal poison, character assassinations, live, uncensored shouting matches in the name of debates.
And in this reality, for the honourable censor board to believe that cutting a word in a film, trimming a shot, or blurring a cigarette will “protect society.” is a Joke
The censor board was born in an era of scarcity when images were rare, access was limited, and the state controlled the media . Cinema halls were crowd points. Newspapers had editors. Television had schedules. Control made sense then.
But today, any form of a control is impossible because no one can no longer decide what people should or should not see
In such times as now, censorship doesn’t prevent exposure… it only insults the viewers .
We are supposed to have smartness to decide who should rule us but not what we want to see or hear ???
What the censor board actually does now is not protection, but only theatrics . It’s a ritual of authority in Oscar worthy performances where scissors replace thinking, and moral pretence moves around in a disguise called responsibility.
The same society that freely scrolls through graphic violence on social media suddenly becomes “concerned” when a filmmaker shows something in a theatre
This hypocrisy is dangerous
Censorship assumes people are children forever as if they aren’t even aware what all things children have access to?
Cinema is not meant to be a classroom where lessons are taught . They are mirrors , view points , expressions and opinions meant to entertain
The job of the authorities is not to edit or cut them out, but to trust citizens enough to decide for themselves ,which is the main point of freedom of speech and expression, guaranteed under the constitution
If the argument is “think of the children or adults who are like children “it takes very less intelligence to understand that they cannot be protected by blunt scissors wielded by committees ,whose own personal tastes pass off as public morality also not to forget their bias and agendas .
Age classification makes sense. Warnings of the content makes sense. Censorship does not.
Continuing to defend the relevance of the censor board today is like insisting on a watchman for a building whose walls have already been broken and everyone can see what’s inside
The world has already moved on to so many platforms which are unfiltered and unsupervised and so the painful question is whether the authorities have the courage to admit that they are obsolete, and more than that, whether we as a film industry collectively have the will to question them on the same
So instead of raising this topic once in a while over a particular film , the fight should be with that particular system of thinking which created the censor board
“When Students Don’t Come Home”
I am writing this as a conscious journalist from the Northeast, carrying the weight of years of silence, loss and unanswered questions.
Late Anjel Chakma was preparing to return to his hometown for the holidays, a routine moment of relief every student understands. But that journey never happened. Instead, Anjel’s life was violently altered and ultimately taken in Dehradun, far from home, far from safety and far from the comfort of those who raised him.
His death is not an isolated tragedy. It is a painful and familiar reminder for every family in the Northeast that sends its children away in search of education and a better future.
More than a decade has passed since Nido Taniam, a young student from Arunachal Pradesh, was killed in South Delhi’s Lajpat Nagar. That incident shook the nation’s conscience. Committees were formed, guidelines were drafted, helplines were launched, and special police units were introduced to protect people from the Northeast living outside their home states.
Yet today, looking at Anjel Chakma’s death, we must ask: what truly changed?
What we have not honestly acknowledged is that the Northeast continues to be seen as “different” in the national imagination. That difference has become dangerous. It manifests as casual slurs, suspicion, ridicule and at times, fatal violence. This mindset was not created overnight and it has not disappeared with laws or advisories.
We often comfort ourselves by saying systems are in place. But systems do not control the minds of men. The prejudice that fuels such attacks has existed since the earliest days of our collective existence, passed on quietly, normalised, and tolerated. The question before us is uncomfortable: do we keep forgiving a rotten mindset until more innocent lives are lost?
Enough is enough.
Special helplines and designated police units are not enough to protect students who are targeted because of how they look, speak or belong. What is needed is institutional seriousness, not symbolic gestures. A dedicated national ministry or statutory body that focuses solely on the vulnerabilities, safety and dignity of Northeastern people across India, without distractions, without dilution, must be debated urgently.
Will it work? That remains to be seen. But doing nothing has already failed too many times.
In response to Anjel Chakma’s death, the Chakma Students’ Union proposed a protest at Jantar Mantar, New Delhi, on December 28, 2025, demanding justice and stronger safeguards for students from the Northeast. This protest was not only for Anjel. It was for every student who left home with hope and returned in a coffin or never returned at all. However, the proposed protest by the Chakma Students’ Union Delhi was postponed after police permitted only 50 participants.
Anjel Chakma’s death is not just news. It is memory. It is a warning. It is grief carried by an entire Northeast region.
I write this not to provoke sympathy, but to demand recognition, that the Northeast is not an exception within the nation, and its children are not expendable.
I write this because silence, at this point, is no longer an option.

In the context of all the venom being spewed by the so called believers on @ssrajamouli they should know that being an atheist in India is not a crime . Article 25 of the Constitution protects the right to not believe
So he has every right to say he doesn’t believe as much as the venom spewers right to say they believe
Now coming to the dumb argument that “if he doesn’t believe in God why does he show God in his movies?”
By that logic, should a filmmaker become a gangster to make a gangster film, become a ghost to make a horror film?
And the gob smacking truth? 😂😂😂
Despite him not believing in god , God gave @ssrajamouli 100 times more success, more wealth and more fan worship than most believers will ever see even in one hundred lifetimes.🤣🤣🤣
So either,
1.God loves atheists more than believers
2.God doesn’t care
3.Or maybe… … God isn’t there sitting with a notepad taking notes on who believes and who doesn’t?
So if God has no issue with him, then why are the self appointed god mongers getting blood pressure and ulcers ?
So the real problem isn’t his atheism.
The real problem is
He succeeded without believing in God… and that scares the ones who miserably failed even after praying like MAD
So the believers should stop defending God because it’s like insulting him , as if he is a weakling needing their protection
The truth is that Rajamouli being an atheist does not reduce God.
It only increases the insecurity of those who think faith will collapse the moment someone stops believing.
So relax.
God is fine.
Rajamouli is fine.
The only ones suffering are the people who can’t understand either of them
So through #varanasi while GOD will add another huge fortune to @SSRajamouli ‘s already overflowing bank balance , the losers can cry their hearts out with jealousy
BOTTOM LINE is it’s plain JEALOUSY masquerading as BELIEF IN GOD ..Jai Hanuman🙏
