Before refusing to rewrite Border 2 songs, Javed Akhtar said he’ll never remake Don despite Farhan Akhtar-Shah Rukh success: ‘Accept failure’ | Bollywood News

Earlier this week, Javed Akhtar revealed he was approached by the makers of Anurag Singh’s period war drama Border 2 to rewrite the popular songs of the first part, JP Dutta’s 1997 blockbuster Border, for the sequel. However, Akhtar turned it down, citing “creative bankruptcy,” claiming that there’s no need to rewrite songs for the sake of nostalgia. He insisted on creating “new nostalgia” instead. Back in 2006, Javed Akhtar’s son Farhan Akhtar remade one of his father’s classics, on which he worked as a screenwriter along with Salim Khan. Chandra Barot’s 1976 caper Don, starring Amitabh Bachchan, was painted with modern colours and remade with Shah Rukh Khan taking the legacy forward. Farhan was quite clear why he picked Don to remake out of his father’s vast and illustrious filmography. “I think Don is the one film from that time that in my mind lends itself to being remade today. For me, it is a film that back then was a little ahead of its time. I don’t say so technically — not the …

When T-Series launched “Ghar Kab Aaoge”, the rehashed version of memorable song “Sandese Aate Hain” from JP Dutta’s 1997 period war drama Border, Javed Akhtar’s name was mentioned in the lyrics credit along with Manoj Muntashir, who has written some new lyrics for the song that have been merged with the veteran poet’s lyrics in the new Border 2 song. Now, Akhtar has revealed that he was approached by the makers, T-Series and JP Films, to write additional lyrics for the songs of Border 2, including “Ghar Kab Aaoge” and “Jaate Hue Lamho”. However, he turned down the offer because he thinks of the trend of adding lyrics to existing popular songs as “intellectual and creative bankruptcy”. “They did ask me to write for the film, but I refused. I really feel this is a kind of intellectual and creative bankruptcy. You have an old song, which did well, and you want to put it out again by adding something? Make new songs or else accept that you cannot do the same level of work. …

The England Cricket Team has rewritten history by winning the Boxing Day Test of the Ashes 2025-26 after a hiatus period of nearly 15 years. For the first time in 19 games, England tasted victory in Australia as MCG readied for the second two-day finish of the Ashes series. On a tough surface, England chased the target of 175 and secured a 4-wicket win. However, this win could not make a difference in the WTC 2025-27 points table and the series result. Still, the visitors are being dominated with 4-1 lead in the series win one game remaining. It was only fifth time in the Test history that a series has included mutliple two-day finishes, and before this summer, they had two in history of Australia. Jacob Bethell made a significant contribution scoring 40, but his dimissal made this test first in Australia to be played without a half century since 1932. Jacob Bethell top-scores with 40 as we complete our first Test win in Australia since 2011. The series may have gone, but that’s …
