On her birthday, October 20th, we reflect back on the journey of Nargis Fakhri, who made her Bollywood debut alongside Ranbir Kapoor in the 2011 film, “Rockstar.” In this Kapoor-led musical romantic drama, she portrayed Heer Kaul. Interestingly, director Imtiaz Ali chose her for the role of a Rockstar actress precisely because she seemed to be out of Ranbir Kapoor’s usual league.
Currently, the last episodes of “Blue Bloods” are set to broadcast in 2024 according to the TV schedule, and viewers are gearing up for the final Reagan family gatherings at the dinner table. These meals have been a consistent feature throughout the show’s lengthy run on CBS, adding an engaging touch to each episode with their potential for disagreements, resolutions, or even new family members joining in. Interestingly, capturing these food-centric moments can be challenging, as Vanessa Ray disclosed during an interview, sharing some insights she gained about them from her co-star, Bridget Moynahan.
In 2024, the standout cinematic duo could very well be Andrew Garfield and Florence Pugh, given their roles in the upcoming romance, “We Live In Time“. Unfortunately, when the film debuted in London this week, scheduling conflicts meant that both stars weren’t able to attend. As a result, Garfield graced the red carpet with a life-sized cardboard cutout of Pugh, a move that turned out to be brilliantly inventive. However, according to Pugh herself, the cutout needed rescue post-premiere, and there’s an amusing tale attached to it.
Initially scheduled for a 2024 premiere, then postponed indefinitely, and now set to hit theaters on January 31, 2025, Bong Joon-ho’s upcoming science fiction comedy “Mickey 17” has had a bumpy ride. In an interview with Empire Online, the director revealed that the delays were due to his desire to maintain final cut rights for the film. Known for his detail-oriented filmmaking style, it makes sense that he would want the creative freedom to present his work as originally envisioned for the audience. In the interview, Bong Joon-ho expressed his contentment and gratitude for the extra time given to perfect the editing process.
