1. Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh to have a baby boy? 

Currently, Deepika Padukone is experiencing her pregnancy journey. As time progresses, she and Ranveer Singh are eagerly awaiting the arrival of their first child in September 2024. Not too long ago, renowned celebrity henna artist Veena Nagda disclosed the gender of their upcoming baby. The exciting news is that Deepveer will be welcoming a son.

During an interview on Hindi Rush, a sister channel of TopMob, Veena reminisced about her encounters with Ranveer at the weddings of Ram Charan and Radhika Merchant-Anant Ambani. She mentioned that they exchanged warm hugs, and in jest, she said, “I too want a bit of Henna,” before embracing him again. Furthermore, she conveyed her well wishes to him by saying, “A son is on his way.”

2. Rajkummar Rao dropped a first-look poster of Maalik on his birthday 

On the celebration of Rajkummar Rao’s birthday this past Saturday, he shared the initial teaser for his upcoming movie titled “Maalik” on social media. Notably, Rajkummar is currently reveling in the triumph of Stree 2.

1. On the poster, the character portrayed by Stree’s actor appears quite intense, gripping a gun. He stands atop a jeep in the image. The actor is dressed in a white shirt and pants. The tagline says, “If not born, then can be made.” Alongside announcing the start of filming, Rajkummar Rao wrote on his post, “#Welcome to the world ruled by him… “

3. Javed Akhtar to write a film for Ranbir Kapoor after Animal

Recently, esteemed screenwriter Javed Akhtar was asked whether Ranbir Kapoor would never achieve the stardom of a legend like Amitabh Bachchan. In an interview with The Indian Express, Javed shared his insights on how the ‘angry young man’ archetype has faded from today’s cinematic landscape.

Speaking about Big B’s character portrayals as a discontented youth in movies, Javed mentioned that beneath his anger, there was actually underlying pain. The scriptwriter commented that what remains is raw anger, which he described as “unrefined.”

In modern days, there seems to be a lack of memorable roles suitable for leading actors, including Ranbir. Regarding speculations about his inability to surpass Amitabh Bachchan’s stardom following the movie “Animal,” the screenwriter-lyricist countered this notion by stating that he might pen a film specifically tailored for him.

4. Deepika Padukone to deliver her baby on THIS date

It’s anticipated that Deepika Padukone and her husband, Ranveer Singh, will soon receive excellent news, as it appears Deepika’s due date for delivery is around September 28, according to News18 Showsha’s report.

Contrary to speculations, the origin of the portal has refuted claims that Deepika is planning to give birth in London. Instead, it’s reported that if all goes well, she is scheduled to deliver her baby on September 28 at a hospital located in South Mumbai.

5. Ali Abbas Zafar to collaborate with the YRF after the Bade Miyan Chote Miyan’s debacle?

Director Ali Abbas Zafar, who has worked with Yash Raj Films on films like Mere Brother Ki Dulhan, Gunday, Sultan, and Tiger Zinda Hai in the past, is teaming up with them once more. This decision follows the underperformance of the film Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, starring Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff, at the box office this year.

According to a source, Variety reports that Zafar is expected to return to his old educational institution (alma mater). The future ventures are planned as cinematic releases. As of now, the specific projects that Ali will direct at YRF haven’t been finalized yet. However, it can be verified that these upcoming projects will be unique cinematic productions.
