Ranveer Singh turned 38 yesterday, but there was no sign of any announcement regarding Farhan Akhtar’s Don 3. Sources attribute it to the makers having second thoughts as the Salaar teaser was unveiled yesterday. KGF: Chapter 2 director Prashanth Neel’s next with Prabhas is eagerly anticipated by critics and audiences alike. Now, we hear that the official announcement of Ranveer as the new Don has been deferred to later this year. “The makers are anyway looking at a 2025 release as Ranveer will begin working on it only after he wraps up Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Baiju Bawra,” says a source.

Kiara Advani seems to have mastered the art of impressing actor-husband Sidharth Malhotra’s mother, Rimma. In a recent interaction, Kiara revealed that she always makes sure that her saasu ma gets her favourite dish whenever she wants. Talking about her mom-in-law’s stay in Mumbai, Kiara shared, “She recently came down from Delhi. She loves pani puri, so, I ensured that we make it at home. Jo maska lagaya... I knew that she will love me to another level. She was so happy (sic).” In fact, the actor has kept a track of her mother-in-law’s favourite dishes ever since she started dating Sid. The couple had a pani puri stall during their February wedding too.

A hero indeed

Real life Tara Singh for Sakina,” alluding to their ons-creen characters. Ameesha concluded her post calling her hero a “super classy gentleman in every way.” 

Blue is the warmest colour  

Kriti Sanon recently launched her production house, Blue Butterfly Films. She also shared that Do Patti with Kajol will be her maiden venture. Soon, netizens pointed out the connection between the banner’s name and her Raabta co-star, Sushant Singh Rajput. The late actor often used blue butterfly emoji in his social media posts. Once, when a follower asked about it, SSR had replied, “Blue Butterfly signifies the emergence, the inevitable, the resonance between you and I and all of us. For feelings you could trust... But we could also just, feel, I move my fingers here and you smile there. It is resonance my love, magical, (blue butterfly emoji) (sic).” Wonder what Kriti has to say about it. 

Reunion of the best 

Aamir Khan is said to be in talks with Rajkumar Hirani for a possible collaboration. The two first teamed up for 3 Idiots (2009) and followed it up with the blockbuster PK (2014).

Let’s see if AK ends his self-imposed break with Raju’s next.
