Vikrant Massey is an actor par excellence, but he is a phenomenal human being as well, keeping his moral and social responsibilities in check. It was once that the 12th Fail actor, in an interview, recalled a huge fight he had with his society members due to a very embarrassing circular and practice.

In the same interview, he discussed how house helpers in his society were subjected to a horrific kind of discrimination, with no one being apologetic about it. The video was shared by a Reddit thread, and Vikrant was hailed for taking the stand for the right.

In a conversation with Samdheesh, Vikrant Massey said, “Meri society mein abhi meri ladai ho gayi thode din pehle. Meri building mein naa circular aaya, ki jitne bhi househelps hain, wo podium se nahi jaayenge.

Directed by Reema Kagti, Superboys of Malegaon is, according to Subhash K Jha, ‘an exceptionally scripted and performed piece of art’. The film, which stars Adarsh Gourav, Vineet Kumar Singh, and Shashank Arora, is a love letter to movies.

Superboys of Malegaon is a poignant tale of filmmaking and friendship. The movie within a movie takes inspiration from the real-life story of Nasir Sheikh, an amateur filmmaker from the small town of Malegaon. The town’s residents look to Bollywood for a much-needed escape, and Nasir wants to make Bollywood-inspired films for the people of Malegaon, by the people of Malegaon.

Adarsh Gourav, plays the lead role of Nasir Sheik, and in this fabulous interview, he talks with Subhash K Jha about all things Superboys of Malegaon.

Lootera, which released in 2013 and is now back on the big screen!

A beautiful but deeply flawed film, the eagerly-awaited Lootera floors you with its audacious sensitivity and its proclivity to use silences to punctuate emotions. Indeed, the sequences between Varun and Pakhi, played with compelling intensity by Ranveer Singh and Sonakshi Sinha, bristle and burst at the seams with unspoken feelings. There are long passages of muted lyricism in the narration where silences are used to accentuate the growing passion between a lonely, emotionally and sexually insulated daughter of a feudal family in Kolkata and the attractive stranger who walks into her life with the promise of passion, only to break her heart into wounding shards.

The love story, apparently inspired by an O’Henry short story, moves in mysterious magical ways but often tends to lose its way in its search for that elusive horizon where two socially, culturally,...

The film’s success, coupled with the popularity of her previous projects like Kathal (2023) and Meenakshi Sundareshwar (2021), has kept her in the spotlight, with all three movies trending on Netflix for weeks.

Beyond acting, Malhotra has also garnered significant attention for her recent collaboration with singer Sunidhi Chauhan. Her appearance in the singer’s latest music video created a buzz on social media, further expanding her fan following. At 33, she has worked with some of Bollywood’s biggest names, including Shah Rukh Khan...

Vikrant Massey who shocked everyone by recently announcing his temporary retirement, would be seen one more time , this time as the archvillain in Farhan Akhtar’s eagerly awaited Don 3.

A source very close to the development confirmed this interesting casting. “Farhan wanted someone who was young unpredictable and compatible on screen with Ranveer Singh. Contrary to belief, Vikrant had no qualms playing the antagonist, especially since the part is written most interestingly , and is as important as the protagonist’s character.”

In 2023 we saw Vikrant sweep across the nation’s collective conscience in 12th Fail with a yearning performance that yelled at educational elitism. In 2024 Vikrant sent a chill up the nation’s collective spine playing a gruesome unapologetic mass killer in Sector 36 and a Hindi channel journalist Samar Kumar who is pushed around by his bosses at the television broadcast station on account of his vernacular identity in Sabarmati Report.

2024 ultimately proved to be an interesting year for Indian cinema. Tentpole franchise releases collected a lot of box office cash, with “Stree 2: Sarkate ka Aatank” and “Pushpa 2: The Rule” both entering the top ten highest grossing Indian films of all time, and new franchise establishing “Kalki 2898 Ad” joining them on the list. Box-office numbers did not equate strong critical word for the protest though, with the majority of good word-of-mouth going once again to regional cinema. Prime among those remained Malayalam cinema, who started the year strong, with a quality release almost every month all the way to the end of the year. Tamil cinema too registered a few release of note, with “Maharaja” becoming the highest grossing Indian film in China upon its release there. Hindi cinema, despite the general opinion of being in regression, also managed to make its presence known, even if noteworthy releases were few and far in-between.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Rajkumar Hirani are one of the most celebrated filmmakers out there in Indian cinema. However, did you know that they had one assisted director-producer Vidhu Vinod Chopra during their beginner days. In a recent interaction, Chopra revealed that he had once lashed out at the two for cutting a trailer of his cult romantic drama, 1942: A Love Story which he found underwhelming.

While interacting with Kellog School Of Management this year, Vidhu Vinod Chopra recalled his first meeting with Rajkumar Hirani which was not quite pleasant for the latter. The 12th Fail director said that Sanjay Leela Bhansali who was his assistant during that time was asked to cut the trailer for 1942: A Love Story by him.

The monstrosity of the Nithari serial murders of “Noida”, committed by Surinder Koli and his rich employer Moninder Singh Pandher in the so-called Sector 31 back in 2006 shook India to the core. More shocking was Koli’s cold-blooded confession about rape, mutilation, and cannibalism involving 19 victims out of which a majority were children. Both men spent years on death row after their conviction in 2009, to be surprisingly acquitted last year due to “lack of evidence”.

Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s 12th Fail about a real-life Ias aspirant who literally made it from zero, was the sleeper success of 2023. It wouldn’t be wrong to say that Vidhu Vinod Chopra created history with a film that no one seemed to believe in.

Doff of the cap to that.

And now onto a film about the filming of 12th Fail . I would like to request Mr Chopra for a film on how he convinced his team to make a film on the filming of 12th Fail. Or perhaps , he did no such thing. Mr Chopra is known to do his own thing. As one of the distinguished alumni from the Vvc University quipped, ‘With Vinod it is more a scream effort than a team effort’.

This creative creature is known to lose his temper while shooting. Mr Chopra’s screaming bouts with his actors, from Nana Patekar in...
