Have you heard? Deepika Padukone’s name on Love & War cast listings sparks buzz

Published by Webster

The big question A tiny spark has turned into a full-blown fan theory. Fans spotted Deepika Padukone’s name on the IMDb and Wikipedia cast listings of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Love & War and, naturally, Reddit did the rest. While neither the makers nor Deepika’s team has confirmed her involvement in the Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt, and Vicky Kaushal-starrer, fans are already busy connecting the dots.

Huma Qureshi breaks silence on wedding rumours: Shaadi jab honi hai tab…

Published by Parlour News

Huma Qureshi has lately made headlines on both the personal and professional fronts. While she turned producer with recently released Baby Do Die Do, which clashed with Alia Bhatt’s Alpha in theatres, her appearances with actor and acting coach Rachit Singh have also fuelled wedding speculation. Huma Qureshi Qureshi, however, says marriage will have to wait. “You and my mum have the same questions! I don’t have an answer to when the wedding is going to happen. Shaadi jab honi hogi tab ho jayegi; I have a lot of work to do. This is a very busy year and, right now, I am just focusing on that.” How big a risk was turning producer? It is a high-risk, high-reward business. It is exciting because you get to be the creator and keeper of your IP. I feel every creative person should produce a film once to understand the entire process. As an actor, your job is largely in front of the camera. A producer, however, is responsible for everything needed to make a project happen. …
