Alia Bhatt's New Movie Raazi Details

Alia Bhatt's New Movie Raazi Details

Meghna Gulzar’s ‘Raazi’ became the fifth movie this year to enter into the Rs 100 crore clubs. The Junglee Pictures and Dharma Productions’ film collected Rs 1.82 crore on Monday taking its grand total to Rs 104.32 crore at the box-office.

Meghna Gulzar’s approached Alia Bhatt for ‘Raazi’ even before she has the script ready for the film and Alia too agreed to do the film, even though they both weren’t sure how and when it will happen. The project was meant for Alia as it landed up with Junglee Pictures and Karan Johar’s Dharma production. Speaking on which Alia had said, “After I met Meghna and I heard that one line it was pretty clear to me that this is a film I have to be a part of at whatever stage in my career as that time there was no clarity as to when it will happen. And then what happened was that it arrived home, it came to Dharma Productions and Junglee Pictures were already on board. So it seemed like a perfect fit where three creative minds; Meghna, Dharma and Junglee came together and it was the perfect timing.”

With ‘Raazi’ entering the Rs 100 crore clubs, for Alia, it is her third film to go past Rs 100 crore after ‘2 States’ and ‘Badrinath Ki Dulhania’. 

Alia Bhatt's New Movie Raazi

Directed by a female director and lead by a female actor, ‘Raazi’ sure did break old Bollywood stereotypes and rules of unconventional cinema.‘Raazi’ is produced by Vineet Jain, Karan Johar, Hiroo Johar and Apoorva Mehta and co-produced by Priti Shahani.

Alia Bhatt starrer 'Raazi' crosses Rs 100 crore mark at the box-office

The Junglee Pictures and Dharma Productions' ‘Raazi’ has been making headlines right from the time it was announced. The film which boasts of some stellar performances by actors Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal collected Rs 4.42 crore on its third Sunday, taking its grand total to Rs 102.50 crore at the box-office.

‘Raazi’ is reportedly the fifth Bollywood film of 2018 to enter the Rs 100 crore club after ‘Padmaavat’, ‘Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety’, ‘Baaghi 2’ and ‘Raid’. At the same time, this film also marks Alia’s third film to make Rs 100 crore after ‘2 States’ and ‘Badrinath Ki Dulhania’.

Set in the India of 1971 and over the backdrop of the period leading of India Pakistan war in the same year, the film covered all sensibilities of that era. Speaking about the same, filmmaker Meghna Gulzar had said, “Sensibilities are very different from what we know today. Even the patriotism as it is in the film is very different from what we know of patriotism today. And that is where the magic of cinema comes in where we all come together and create that world, pull you into it and convince you that now you are in this world too. All the departments of the film pull together to make that world a reality and that is exactly what shows in the film.”

At the special screening of the film before its release, everyone who watched the film was moved. And that’s exactly why Mahesh Bhatt believes that in ‘Raazi’. Alia has given her best performance to date. He took to Twitter to share his emotions. He wrote, “Raazi movie review: In Meghna Gulzar's engaging thriller, Alia Bhatt gives her career's best performance so far”.

Arjun Rampal and wife announce separation after 20 years of marriage

Arjun Rampal and wife announce separation after 20 years of marriage

Arjun Rampal and his wife Mehr Jessia are separating after two decades of marriage. The couple announced their decision to end the marriage in a joint statement, famous Newspaper reported. 

"After a 20-year-long beautiful journey filled with love and beautiful memories, we would like to share, that all journeys have different paths. We feel that it is time for us to move on to different destinations henceforth. We have always been solid when it has come to us, we will continue to be solid for each other and our loved ones, as we embark upon a new journey.

"Both of us being extremely private people feel strange to be making this statement, but such are the circumstances of our lives. Where the truth can get distorted and lost. We are a family, our love for each other is forever intact and we shall always be there for one another and most importantly, for our children Mahikaa and Myra. We would therefore appreciate our privacy through this time. Thank all for their support. Relationships can end, but love lives on. We won't be commenting on this any further," the statement read.

Arjun Rampal and Wife 

Incidentally, it was just earlier this month that reports of trouble in paradise began doing the rounds. According to the grapevine, Arjun and Mehr's differences escalated to a point that the actor moved out of their house and began living separately.

Incidentally, a few years ago, speculation was rife that Arjun's growing closeness with Sussanne Khan had resulted in cracks appearing in their respective marriages. However, Arjun issued a statement and clarified that he was in no way responsible for Hrithik Roshan and Sussanne Khan's relationship breaking up.

According to reports, Arjun and Mehr decided to give their marriage another shot, and for a while, it looked like everything was back on track. The two, along with their daughters Mahikaa and Myra, reportedly went on several getaways and bonded like a family. Unfortunately, it was not long before the differences cropped up again, and this time, it was the final nail in the coffin for the couple.

As per newspaper reports that the reason they took so long to go public was because they were waiting for their daughters, Myra and Mahikaa, to come to terms with the separation before they announced it.

Apparently, the cracks in their marriage appeared as early as 2011, when Arjun and Mehr fell out of favour with Shah Rukh Khan. If a source close to the couple is to be believed, Arjun sent feelers to Shah Rukh and expressed his desire to be a part of Ra.One.

"But Mehr allegedly insisted on a higher remuneration for her husband from co-producer SRK himself, who swore to never work with Arjun in the future. The two subsequently had a public falling out during the film's release. After that, Shah Rukh stopped taking Mehr's calls. His wife, Gauri Khan, who had been close friends with Mehr, severed ties with her as well," the insider revealed.

Arjun also managed to rub Karan Johar the wrong way, when he gave his nod to We Are Family, and then hiked his fee at the last minute. Karan was miffed and reportedly vowed never to work with Arjun again. Soon, Arjun and Mehr were dropped like hot potatoes from the inner circle of Bollywood's most elite. Snubbed by his friends from the industry, he found solace in Sussanne Khan. Close friends of the actor told the publication that Arjun had been smitten with her for a long time.

"When his equations with many industry friends were worsening, his friendship with Sussanne only strengthened over time and Mehr grew extremely insecure. It led to several fights between the couple," an insider said, recalling a nasty showdown between the two women at a party hosted by Fardeen Khan last year. "Mehr and Sussanne yelled at one another before Mehr stormed out of the party. The two have not spoken to each other since," the source added.

Fingers were pointed at Arjun when Hrithik Roshan and Sussanne Khan announced their split. However, Arjun vociferously denied that he had anything to do with Hrithik and Sussanne's marriage crumbling.

"I read in the news as the same time as you all about my involvement in this marriage. It saddens me deeply that rumours become inevitable during celebrities going through such times. Mehr and I wish them only peace and love through these times and support them as friends should and we wish them and their families well always," Arjun said in a statement.

Meanwhile, Sussanne was also not amused by the "malicious" rumours of her affair with Arjun and clarified in a statement in November 2014, "Arjun and Mehr are friends and have been for years. To poison a relationship such as this is malicious behavior. I have, with Mehr, earlier stated in the same paper that there is no truth to the claim that Arjun and I are anything more than friends."

However, the rumours refused to die down. In 2015, Mehr had been fighting tooth and nail to save her marriage, but there came a point when she was heartbroken and moved in with her mother in Dadar's Parsi colony. The reconciliation came soon after, and Mehr returned to her home with Arjun. The couple began making lots of public appearances together, and it seemed like nothing had been amiss in the first place.

Arjun and Mehr decided to give their marriage another shot, but things went awry last year. Mehr had to be escorted home by a friend after she broke down in the Mount Mary church in Bandra.

"Mehr had learnt that Arjun and Sussanne were still meeting secretly and were close friends. She was traumatised as she had believed Arjun when he said he was a changed man and that everything would be fine," the insider revealed.

While Arjun and Mehr had their fair share of fights and reconciliations, the differences kept growing. In late 2016, the couple had a nasty spat, that resulted in Arjun walking out of their home for the first time.

"They were fighting so loudly and throwing things at each other that the neighbours threatened to complain to the police as it wasn't the first fight of its kind. Mehr apologised profusely to them and immediately after that, Arjun moved into a five-star service apartment for a week," a filmmaker close to the couple said.
