5 top Bollywood headlines of March 2, 2025

 

1. Priyanka Chopra-backed Anuja lost Oscars 2025  

In a surprising turn of events at the 2025 Oscars, Anuja, an American-Hindi film produced by Priyanka Chopra, did not win the top prize. Instead, the Dutch movie, I’m Not a Robot, took home the prestigious award. Anuja was among five films in contention for the honor, including A Lien (English), I’m Not a Robot (Dutch), The Last Ranger (English and Xhosa), and The Man Who Could Not Remain Silent (Croatian).

2. Alia Bhatt’s plans on reuniting with Varun Dhawan for Dulhania 3  

At a fan gathering, when queried about the possibility of working with Varun Dhawan again on Dulhania 3, Alia Bhatt replied, “Well, we’ll need a script first.

Instead of saying, “However, fans encouraged the actress by candidly stating, ‘hum fans bana lenge (We fans will make it).'” You could rephrase it as, “The fans inspired the actress when they declared, ‘we’ll make it happen ourselves.'” Delighted by this, the actress reciprocated by labeling it a “wonderful idea.

3. Shraddha Kapoor’s wallpaper featuring her rumored BF Rahul Mody catches attention

At her recent appearance, Shraddha Kapoor’s phone background picture was quite noticeable. The locked screen display featured a snapshot of Mody embracing the actress from behind and nestling his chin on her left shoulder while they took a mirror selfie together.

4. Farhan Akhtar reacts to ZNMD 2 rumors

Responding to the viral video with Hrithik Roshan and Abhay Deol, I made it clear that the reunion wasn’t a subtle hint for a sequel. Instead, we were just enjoying each other’s company in an impromptu get-together filled with laughter. As for Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara 2, well, you’ll have to listen to the chatter among fans; I’m as much in the dark about it as you are.

5. Jeet and Prosenjit Chatterjee’s Khakee: The Bengal Chapter gets a release date
