‘David Dhawan doesn’t ‘have the guts’ to talk to me about ‘Chunari Chunari’ remake,’ says Abhijeet Bhattacharya: ‘Copies are sold more than the original’ | Bollywood News

Over the past weekend, as clips from the shoot of Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai starring Varun Dhawan, Pooja Hegde and Mrunal Thakur, were circulated on the internet, fans of the Biwi No 1 song “Chunari Chunari” were not pleased. The clips being circulated saw Varun, Mrunal and Pooja dancing to a revamped version of the song and fans, as they often are, did not sound pleased with another one of their childhood favourites getting a revamp. Now, singer of the original song Abhijeet Bhattacharya has said that he was not told that the song is getting revamped for another film. He also said that even though this was a hit song back in the 90s, he never counted it among his “great songs.” In a chat with HT City, Abhijeet said that no one told him about the revamp and added that they “don’t have the guts” to inform him either. He said, “Mujhe music composer, film ke director kisi ne nahi bataya ki iss song ko remake kiya jaa raha hai. Himmat …

Aamir Khan Nearly Cast In Cult Rom-Com ( Photo Credit – Netflix ) Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan have undoubtedly been two of the biggest and most bankable actors in the Indian film industry.

What Made The Makers Change The Original Plan For A Darker Finale?

Final Destination Bloodlines Brutal Log Truck Scene ( Photo Credit – YouTube ) Final Destination: Bloodlines didn’t hold back in its latest installment. The new release has been a wild ride built from the bones of its predecessors, bursting with clever nods to the films that came before. However, none land harder than the infamous log truck — yes, the same death machine that haunted viewers since the highway brutality of Final Destination 2. In Bloodlines, the ending isn’t just a callback — it’s a looming presence, twisting its way through the film until it finally delivers a brutal farewell to Stefani and Charlie. That final scene is soaked in utter mayhem, marking the bloodiest wood-fueled sequence the franchise has delivered in years. The Alternate Ending That Never Made It Originally, though, things were going to end differently. Directors Zach Lipovsky and Adam Stein toyed with a number of drafts before landing on the version that made it to the screen. In one early version, Stefani and Charlie didn’t die. According to Collider, Stein revealed, …
