Kartik Aaryan reflects on the underwhelming performance of Shehzada; says, “We were facing a crisis from before its release” October 15, 2024 at 03:22PM

Following the success of the Allu Arjun starrer Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo, the film was remade in Hindi as Shehzada starring Kartik Aaryan. Considering the star cast and the love for the Telugu entertainer, a lot was expected from it, but it seems that this film failed to meet expectations. Referring to the same, Kartik recently told Pinkvilla, “For Shehzada, which didn’t work, we were facing a crisis from before its release.”

The actor went on to speak about how his name was added to the list of producers of the film and shared, “They were gracious enough to give me producer credits. I didn’t want to take it, but I invested in a few things during the making, so they gave me producer credits. I just wanted to save my film, selfishly. I try to safeguard my movies in all ways possible,” he asserted.

In the same interaction, Kartik also candidly addressed the game of remuneration and how it works within the frame of Indian film industry. “Everything has a calculation. It’s a business module. If things are sitting in the calculation, then it’s correct,” he mentioned. The actor also further explained how some don’t understand how the entire calculation is put together. “Since people are not doing these calculations, these debates are happening. The calculations are going off, and thus most people are not happy and, in fact, angry,” he stated. “I hope my producers stay happy and I don’t make them angry in any way. I think my calculator works well,” he jokingly added.

While Kartik also jokingly confessed that he too has signed films for monetary gain without divulging any name, he has now become one of the most loved actors in the country. The actor is currently prepping for Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 which features an ensemble cast of Vidya Balan, Triptii Dimri, Madhuri Dixit, Rajpal Yadav, and others in key roles.

Bombay High Court orders stays the release of Hamare Baarah, two days before the film’s release June 07, 2024 at 01:02PM

Hamare Baarah, which is making news for its bold approach and thought-provoking plotline, has been mired in controversy, with the makers landing in deep trouble. The highly anticipated release of Annu Kapoor, Manoj Joshi, and Paritosh Tripathi starrer, has encountered a significant setback as the Bombay High Court has issued a stay on its release just two days before its scheduled release on June 7, extending the hold until June 14. This unexpected turn of events has impacted the premiere of the film which was expected to be held this week, leaving makers in an uncertain dilemma. The legal obstacle arises from a petition filed by activists from a specific religious community at the Mumbai High Court, opposing the film's release. Producers Birender Bhagat and Ravi S Gupta have raised serious concerns regarding the imposition of the stay, especially given that the film had already obtained a censor certificate. In a recent statement given to NDTV, Mr Bhagat explained their predicame
