Cinematic universes are gaining more and more popularity as time passes by. It can be safely said that the front-runners of this exploding trend is Marvel Studios and their interconnected films that are now collectively known as the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But, did you know that a certain visionary director, ahem, Shankar, was also thinking on the same lines in 2008? What's interesting is that 2008 is the very same year that saw the release of the Robert Downey Jr.-starrer Iron Man, the film that became the starting point of the MCU and established the tone of what is now a $30 billion franchise. As far as Shankar's musings are concerned, read on to know more about what the director of 2.0 has to say. An interesting story was told by Shankar in an exclusive interview with News18 Showsha. While talking about it, he said "While filming Robot in 2008, I had this idea of creating a story that brings together Senapathy (played by Kamal Haasan) from Indian, one-day chief minister Shivaji Rao Gaekwad (played by Anil Kapoor) from Nayak and Sivaji (Rajinikanth) in one film." A Forward-Thinking Concept The reception that Shankar had hoped for for this multi-starrer idea was far from it. He further added, "I was so excited by the idea. I called my assistant directors and told them about it. But they just stared at me, unsure of how to react. They probably thought I was crazy! The idea of bringing three iconic characters together in one film seemed outlandish at the time. Even senior technicians didn't quite know how to respond. They smiled politely but didn't seem to take it seriously." When The Avengers Rekindled An Old Flame Watching Marvel Studios' The Avengers many years later brought up memories of Shankar's own idea for a movie universe. "I confided in many people about this idea," he said, "but since no one responded positively, I shelved it. Then came The Avengers, and it reignited that spark within me." "Hindustani 2" by Shankar Will Be Released Soon As the multi-starrer project stays on hold, Shankar's Hindustani 2 is gearing up for a release on July 12. The film will be released in Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu all over the globe. It is the sequel to the Hindi blockbuster Indian. Along with Kamal Haasan's original protagonist, Siddharth, Kajal Aggarwal Kitchlu, and Rakul Preet Singh also feature in the film. What are your expectations from Hindustani 2?

The legendary Govind Namdev has opened up about his time spent filming with Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan, two of Bollywood's biggest performers. While working on the set of Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani (2000), Govind Namdev reflected on his time spent with the now Emperor of the Hindi film industry for an interview hosted by Bollywood Bubble. While speaking about SRK, Namdev claims that he had an unmatched work ethic; the actor would frequently labour nonstop, get only four hours of sleep, and be thinking about his next assignment the whole time. In his own words, “I had heard a lot about workaholics, jinhe sirf kaam ki dhun hoti hai. I had heard about them, but I saw it the first time when I worked with Shah Rukh Khan,” He also remembered, “We worked throughout the day, then at night he mingled with the whole crew, we ate together and then, because he was also the producer, he worked till 2 AM. The next day, he had to take an early morning flight to Chennai to attend a function, then come back and resume shooting! He would’ve slept for not more than three and a half or four hours maximum. Kaam mein dhuni hai woh. He will smoke like a chimney and keep working, keep thinking about what to do next. Superstars usually have this attitude, these tantrums, but not him.” Govind Namdev on working with Salman Khan on the sets of Wanted Wanted (2009) co-star Salman Khan was another subject of Govind Namdev's story. Salman Khan was far more focused on his work than Shah Rukh Khan, who was very gregarious with the team. Salman Khan, as pointed out by Govind Namdev, was reserved most of the time but would occasionally open up about his father and his childhood. According to him: “He doesn’t interact much, sirf kaam se kaam. There was no personal talk at all. Just sometimes how unke father kaise hote the, kuch bhi tedha kiya toh padti thi humko‘ (Salman would share how if the kids did anything naughty, they would get a beating by their father Salim). That’s it. He is the opposite of Shah Rukh Khan as far as interacting with others is concerned.” On the professional front, the seasoned actor was most recently seen in the Meghna Gulzar-directed Vicky Kaushal-starrer Sam Bahadur. As far as the Khans are concerned, while the Jawan/Pathaan/Emperor of Bollywood is enjoying a vacation in London with loved ones, Salman Khan is busy filming his next feature presentation, Sikandar.

In Mel Gibson's newest feature film, Flight Risk, which premiered on Thursday, Mark Wahlberg plays the role of a wilderness pilot-turned-psychotic hitman in the official trailer. In a scene reminiscent of Con Air, Wahlberg, who plays Daryl, pilots a plane carrying Michelle Dockery's air marshal Madolyn and Topher Grace's fugitive on their way to New York City for the upcoming trial of the Moretti crime family. While flying over Alaska, the trailer's score plays a cover of "Psycho Killer" by the Talking Heads, and Daryl's true identity as a balding mob assassin out to eliminate the snitch comes to light. The trailer is included below: Madolyn successfully subdues and handcuffs the pilot after a skirmish at 10,000 feet, but she now needs assistance in keeping everyone aloft. She begs, "Tell me how to fly this thing or we will die out here."

Since his groundbreaking performance as Gus Fring on Breaking Bad ended, actor Giancarlo Esposito has been in high demand for other thrilling roles, and fans often wonder if he would have been a better fit for other great characters. Esposito had long expressed interest in portraying a role similar to the X-Men's Professor X, but he has since acknowledged that his endorsements were just a way for him to show his fans how much they meant to him. Regardless, he will reportedly feature in Captain America: Brave New World as an unnamed character. On July 5th, theatres will screen MaXXXine, the next film starring Esposito. While addressing the casting rumours as well as the fan's desire of seeing him as MCU's Charles Xavier during a conversation with ComicBook.com, Esposito stated "I started thinking about Professor X, because I feel like that could be a character that I would really excel at, and really be great in. They also talked about Magneto, they also talked about [DC's Mr.] Freeze, all of those things. I am so happy to be in the MCU. I'm happy that you don't know what I'm doing there and I'm happy that I probably don't know what I'm doing there, but I'm happy to be there and you're going to see it soon." We suppose that is all we are going to get from Gus Fring for the time being.

I Iconic Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan has been reading excerpts from Tulsidas's epic poem the Ramcharitmanas in the days leading up to the premiere of his much-anticipated film, "Kalki 2898 AD." A star-studded cast includes Deepika Padukone, Kamal Haasan, and Prabhas is present in this film. Late Monday night, Amitabh posted a photo of a Ramcharitmanas page to his blog, along with some commentary and the lines translated into English. In the aforementioned blog, the Big B of Bollywood wrote “We are in time after ages. and the age of the ages is beginning to get a control .. which is recommended and practised all over .. so the effect of that early bird shall be exercised and the results reverted upon ..” before sharing the picture of the script. He then translated the verses, conveying profound philosophical insights. According to Amitabh’s translation, “Without knowing divinity, there is no belief; without belief, there is no love; and without love, how can there be devotion? Just like the reflected smoothness of water is never still or stagnant, without a guru, there can be no learning; without reclusion and quietude, can there be learning. The Veda and the Puraan say that without prayer and devotion to Hari, there can be no peace and calm.” to the above, the Shehenshah added “Can a boat ever move without being in water? Without the earth, can there be trees that grow? And many more such examples to exemplify the presence and the prayers to the Almighty, the absence of which makes many things impossible.” He concluded with a heartfelt prayer, “I pray for eternal peace and calm. Whoever listens to it, may there be fructification.” In addition, he tweeted out the following post ahead of the magnum opus making its big screen debut. it sees the Bollywood legend, who plays Ashwatthama in the epic in a fairly reflective and gratitude-filled mood. you can find the post below: The film features a confrontation between Ashwatthama, played by Amitabh Bachchan, and Bhairava, played by Prabhas.

Prabhas, Amitabh Bachchan, Deepika Padukone, Kamal Haasan, and Saswata Chatterjee are among the famous actors and actresses featured in the 2898 AD film Kalki. This science fiction action film, directed by Nag Ashwin, is based on the Hindu legend of Kalki, the last avatar of Lord Vishnu. The film's theatrical debut was on June 27, 2024, with simultaneous releases in Telugu, Tamil, Hindi, Malayalam, and Kannada. We can practically feel the jaws dropping on people who saw the film because of the ending, which we will give you a quick rundown of below. If you haven't seen the science fiction thriller yet, you might want to stop reading now since there's a huge spoiler ahead. So, what happens in the final moments of Kalki 2898 AD? Sumathi is pregnant in Kalki 2898 AD, and Commander Manas is assigned the mission of locating her so that Supreme Yaskin can harvest serum from her. Sumathi is wanted by Bhairava, who wants her to give her to the Complex in return for units. Sumathi is taken to Shambala by Ashwatthama and his companions, but Bhairava learns of their whereabouts and alerts the Complex. This moment leaves the door open for a possible sequel and perhaps even a long running franchise. If the box office numbers posted by the makers of the film are any indication, there is a very good chance that Kalki 2898 AD is just the first of many films featuring its star-studded cast as modernised versions of well-known Indian deities.
