For months now we have all been wondering what RRR, the title of S S Rajamouli’s film meant. It turns out that the maverick director was trying to get the rights of the title Raghupati Raghav Rajaram. Having failed to acquire it, the RRR acronym was given another interpretation altogether.
The RRR now stands for Rise Roar Revolt in Hindi (and never mind if those words are in the English language). In Telugu it is Roudram Ranam Rudhiram and in Tamil it is Irattam Ranam Relattiram. All the conflicting multi-lingual interpretations to the RRR acronym could be a problem.
Rajamouli’s film titles have always been pithy, mostly one-worded like Eega, Magadheera, Baahubali. This is the first time he has selected multiple titles in different languages for the same film. Could be a matter of conflict for the film’s box office interests?

Didi, namaaskar, aap kaisi hain?
Main theek hoon. Sab ki terah ghar mein hoon (I am at home like everyone).
You were recently hospitalized for a severe lung infection, so you must be doubly careful?
I am extremely careful. I am not meeting anyone and even if it is a family member it is, ‘Hi hello. How Are You?’ from a distance.
But even that is dangerous for you considering your medical history?
I know. I am following my two personal doctors’ and three nurses’ orders blindly. Whatever they say I can’t do, I don’t even think about. I’d ideally want complete isolation for me and for everyone at the moment.
What is your advice to your millions of fans across the world?
We are going through the most trying of times. We all need to unite as one nation to fight this virus. Please listen to the Prime Minister Modiji when he says we all need to stay at home. And listen to my songs if they make you happy at home.
How are you spending your time in isolation? Do you listen to your own songs?
No never! Once I recorded my songs I never went back to them. I spend my time doing riyaaz, doing pooja, watching television, talking on the phone to people close to me and just resting.
Which are five of your songs that according to you must be on everyone’s playlist?
Given the current crisis across the world? ‘Allah Tero Naam’ (from the film Hum Dono), ‘Tum Asha Vishwas Hamare’ (Subah), ‘Ek Tu Hi Bharosa’ (Pukar), ‘JisseYeh Duniya Thukrayee Use Tu Hi Toh Apnaye’ (Darpan) and ‘Aayeeye Bahaar Ko Hum Baat Len’ (Taqdeer).

Actor Janhvi Kapoor, who just like the rest of the citizens is in lockdown amid Coronavirus pandemic, has penned an emotional post reflecting on her life. On Monday, she took to Instagram to post her note her lengthy note and captioned it, “Also learnt that I like to write... p.s. wrote this 3 days ago since we started self-isolating a little before the lockdown and it had already been a week for me by then.”
In the note, she spoke about self-isolation, remember her mother Sridevi, appreciating her life and remembering how privileged she is.
Read the entire note here:
"I’ve learnt to value the food that I eat. It’s a blessing to have things in excess and abundance the way that I do. But not knowing If our house ration will last long enough till lockdown ends, knowing someone’s risking their health every time they go to buy groceries- makes me worry in a way I’ve never had to before. Still I have it better than most in these conditions, and I’ve had it better than most do in life.. I’ve learnt I have been selfish and irresponsible.
I've learned that my father misses me. Before lockdown, whenever he was home; he would wail for me and Khushi to come back from work or from meetings or from our friends houses to spend time with us. I would never see him wait. But when I wake up now and go across the hall and see him alone on the sofa smiling because he has us to himself the whole day, I can picture him sitting in the same place wailing alone for us to come home.
I’ve learned that I relied on too many people for too many things, For vanity, for my health, for my entertainment. I took for granted the fact that I could travel, by foot, in a car or on a plane. All of these things are luxuries. That became daily life. That then became necessities.
I’ve learnt that this house needs me. I’ve learnt to be responsible for my people. I need to look out for everyone in my house, because their health affects my health which affects my father’s health. I’ve learnt that I want to look out for them because I love them. And they’ve been looking out for me every single day. I’ve learnt that our job has conditioned in us a constant need to be seen. And it’s nice not to be for sometime.
I’ve learnt that I feel my most liberated in this lockdown. It’s liberating to know you don’t really need all the things you thought you did. To be free from all the plans and anxieties, all the things I thought I needed to do and say and hear to feel good about myself.
I’ve learnt that there are many hours In the day. I’ve learnt that I can still smell my mother in her dressing room. I’ve learnt that I’m a better painter in my head than in real life. I’ve learnt that Khushi is definitely the cooler sister. I’ve learnt that I have the funniest friends in the world. I’ve learnt that I don’t need a reformer to workout and stay fit. I’ve learnt that music can help you get through anything. l’ve learnt that the human mind is a globe in itself with infinite travel destinations and adventures and possibilities.
I’ve learnt that I love movies. More than I love anything. I love watching them, and thinking about them and dreaming about them. I love life. And it’s precious, and fragile. And I’ve been blessed with a great one. I look forward to everything that this process is going to make me value again. I encourage all of you to be open to it if you can afford to because most people don’t know how they are going to survive this."

One of the most legendary films of Bollywood, Hera Pheri, completes 20 years today. The film is fondly remembered for its timeless humour, watertight screenplay, flawless direction by Priyadarshan, realism and of course, the chemistry between the lead characters of Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty and Paresh Rawal. It was a story of a landlord and his two paying guests who get a chance to get rich when the granddaughter of a famous businessman gets kidnapped and the kidnapper mistakenly calls them for ransom. The film in a way revolved around the kidnapped girl as her abduction is what leads to the whole madness.
Cut to 2020. Ann Alexia Anra aka Annie, who played the character of this girl named Rinku, is now 30 and quite unrecognizable. She has left acting but is quite content to have been a part of two unforgettable films – Hera Pheri and Avvai Shanmugi, which was later remade in Hindi as Chachi 420. Based in Chennai, Ann, in an exclusive interview to Bollywood Hungama, goes down memory lane and remembers working on this film, the memories attached, what she is doing at present and a lot more.
Did you know that Hera Pheri was completing 20 years?
No, I had no idea! Once in a while, people do message me on Instagram about it but I hadn’t looked it up. I can’t believe 20 years have passed. I feel old!
Before Hera Pheri, you also were a part of Avvai Shanmugi (1996), which I believe was your first film…
Yes, that was my first film. I had done modelling and ads before. In fact, I’ve been modelling since I was 3. The choreographers of Avvai Shanmugi had seen me act. One thing led to another. My parents didn’t want me to act in movies actually. They were okay with ads but movies are longer and take up a lot of time. Hera Pheri, however, was allowed because it was shot during the summer vacations. But after that, they didn’t let me do any other movie. Hera Pheri happened because my dad is a Malayali and someone from Priyadarshan’s side knew that I had acted in Avvai Shanmugi. I was surprised they didn’t cast anyone from Mumbai. I have been actually based in Chennai all my life. We went to Mumbai for a couple of weeks to shoot.
Besides Avvai Shanmugi and Hera Pheri, which other films have you worked in?
I acted in two more films, and I had cameos in both. One was the Tamil film Thaayin Manikodi (1998), which also featured Tabu. The other was a Hindi film, Hathyara (1998), starring Mithun Chakraborty
Do you remember any memories from the Hera Pheri sets and working with such stalwarts?
I remember a lot from this film as there was so little that I had to do, especially as compared to Avvai Shanmugi. Also, I got to travel to a different city. I was there in the film for only 15 minutes but I was there in Mumbai for a very long time. Before the shoot started, they had to make my body double for which I had met Sabu Cyril. The shoot per se used to be a lot of fun. Akshay Kumar used to pull so many pranks on me, my mother etc. Avvai Shanmugi was a lot of work as I had to learn a lot of dialogues and also how to behave like a South Indian girl. On Hera Pheri sets, I used to get sweets and lipstick lollipops to the sets every day. My mother used to buy these things while we were on the way to shoot to keep me occupied. I remember offering these to Akshay Kumar and Suniel Shetty as I was always around them, and also everyone else. Interestingly, I didn’t know anything about the Bollywood industry. So I didn’t know who Akshay Kumar or Suniel Shetty was. So I wasn’t nervous. However, I did get shouted at by Paresh Rawal!
Why?
I went near the camera. I am usually not a brat on the set as I had done hundreds of ads. So I was pretty disciplined. But since everyone was being goofy on Hera Pheri sets, I think I ran around the camera and he got really mad at me. He shouted at me and I have never been shouted at by anyone on set. But I don’t think he meant it and it was just his quick reaction.
Hera Pheristarted slow but gradually it won over people. Do you remember the reactions from people around you at that point?
I was in Chennai at that time and the film that didn’t make that kind of noise out here. So I had no idea that the film was a hit. It was only when I grew up and made friends from those who had come from North and who had seen the film that I realized its worth. Also, if I slightly mention to a friend that I was in that film, they often tell me how much they love it. They then ask me what was my role in the film and I tell them that I was the kid that got kidnapped (laughs)!
Hera Pheriis also a very hot film in the world of memes! Are you aware of this fact?
Yes I am aware. However, I don’t get the memes especially if they are not in English because I don’t understand Hindi! But seeing these Hera Pheri memes always brings a smile on my face!
Did you do any other film after Hera Pheri?
No. That was my last film.
How did you enter into modelling as a kid? Is anyone from your family involved in movies or advertising?
One of my cousins is a DOP. We have a few people in my family but no one from my direct family is a part of the movie business. When I was 3 or 4, one of the model coordinators locally spotted us and that’s how it all began. I still get calls for ads but right now, I am fully focused on my work.
What are your education qualifications?
I got a French government scholarship for which I went to France and completed my undergraduate course there in BBA. I then came back and worked in an ad agency. I worked in a software company for around 4 ½ - 5 years and my forte is social media and digital marketing.
I believe you also wrote for the magazine ‘Southside’ and participated in Miss Chennai 2007…
Oh my god, how do you know that? Yes, that’s true. As for Miss Chennai, I did participate. It was a reality show and I went for it at the insistence of my mom as I was really shy.
You also started a candy apple business called ‘Original Sin’…
I always had the entrepreneur bug. So I have done a lot of small businesses. I quit my job 1 ½ year ago to start my own waste management company, called Wasted Solutions. I work in low-value waste which people don’t really necessarily think about. People usually talk about plastics. But we work on used beverage cartons, tetra packs, cigarette waste etc.
I read somewhere that you are also into making documentaries…
Not exactly documentaries but we used to make videos for Tamil Nadu Police with regards to what the cops do for the society, their different departments, special task force etc. I was a part of the initiative through which we made a Facebook page for them so that they could be more accessible to the public. I worked with the ex-commissioner on this project. Later when he became the DGP, he suggested that we start a page which will be monitored by a team of officers who can take up online complaints and thereby help the public. It was actually launched by the Chief Minister in 2017. But now I’ve quit my job so I don’t know what’s happening on this project.
Do you get messages from Hera Pheri fans on Instagram? And what about your friends and others? Are they aware that you are the Hera Pheri girl?
I do occasionally get messages from people on Instagram asking me if I am Rinku from Hera Pheri. Also, I have uploaded a picture from the set, on my profile. I always reply because it’s so rare that someone makes the effort to come and find out who that little girl is! And after the lockdown due to the Coronavirus breakout, I am especially getting a lot of enquires, probably because I guess people have a lot of time to watch old movies and research! And outside the virtual world, a lot of people do get confused when they see me. Like they feel my face is familiar but they don’t know how they know me! I especially get that a lot in Chennai because of Avvai Shanmugi, as it’s a Tamil film. My friends usually try to surprise their other friends by asking them ‘do you know who this girl is’. And it’s fun to see them struggling to guess!
Are you in touch with your Avvai Shanmugi co-star Kamal Haasan or anyone from the Hera Pheri team?
Not at all. I talk to Kamal Haasan’s younger daughter Akshara more than anyone else. Once in a while, she comes to Chennai and we hang out at dance classes. Recently, we have met a couple of times.
Do you have any plans to make a comeback in acting?
No. Sometimes, I get some really nice calls from Mumbai for ads that I do. Like I recently did a Colgate national campaign directed by Pradeep Sarkar. But I really feel I was better as an actor as a kid! Hence, I don’t want to make the effort of coming into the industry as an adult actor.
There are reports that Hera Pheri 3 is being planned. If given a chance, would you like to take it up? It’ll be fun to see you getting kidnapped again, this time as an adult!
(Laughs) If I am going to come into the film for a few minutes like I did for the first time, then maybe I can as that would not require too much of my effort! And I don’t even speak Hindi. However, I am just really happy that I got to be a part of two legendary comedy movies and that’s also my favourite genre!

Tulsi Kumar has delivered some of the biggest hits last year. While on one hand, she had foot-tapping tracks like 'O Saki Saki' and 'Ankhiyon Se Goli Maare', she drove soulful renditions like 'Tera Ban Jaunga', 'Enni Soni' and others with equal aplomb. It's been a great start for her in 2020 with 'Lagdi Lahore Di' from Street Dancer 3D and 'Dus Bahane 2.0' from Baaghi 3 topping charts and getting her a lot of love from the audience. Now, she is taking it a notch higher as she lends her voice to the reprised version of the much loved romantic anthem from Malang, 'Phir Na Milen Kabhi'.
It was Tulsi's idea to come up with the reprised version of the heartbreak number and she's channelized her innermost emotions for the same. Tulsi asserts, "Honestly when I heard the song 'Phir Na Milen Kabhi' from Malang, I fell in love with the melody, the intensity, and the lyrics. It's a very, very beautifully written and composed song. It's a situation that everyone has been through in their lives. I instantly connected with the song and I remember calling the composer and singer Ankit (Tiwari) and telling him the song is a beautiful composition. I also told him I'll be surprising him very soon. I had it in my mind that I want to render this song because there are certain songs you just can’t get out of your head because of the way it makes you feel. I wanted to do a cover for this one, so that's how the idea of the reprised version came about."
Tulsi features in the track and has beautifully emoted throughout the track. She also shares that today we are in a time when the world is going through a crisis because of the Coronavirus outbreak. She feels at such times music can soothe the human soul and offer some calming effect.
The reprised version of 'Phir Na Milen Kabhi', sung by Tulsi Kumar with lyrics by Prince Dubey and music produced by Bharat Goel, has been directed by Shakti Hasija.

Nihar Pandya and his wife Neeti Mohan had a providential escape from the Corona-hit Australia just before all the airports were shut and travel back to India was impossible. Nihar who is in quarantine at a farm in Umbergaon, Gujarat, still can’t believe his luck. “One more day in Australia and we’d have been stuck in Australia indefinitely. My wife Neeti Mohan and I and my sisters-in-law Mukti and Shakti were in Australia to attend the Women’s T20 Cricket World Cup in Melbourne. After that we were to stay in Australia for a holiday until 17 March.”
But then the Corona Virus broke out. Says Nihar, “I got a call from my brother in Mumbai. He said we had two choices. Either we came back immediately or I’d remain in Australia, get a job, and my wife could do her singing there. Of course we fled. We were at the Gold Coast. We drove down to Brisbane to catch our flight back to Mumbai. The airport was completely deserted. The next day, March 14, all the airports in Australia were shut down.”
Once in Mumbai, Nihar his wife and two sisters-in-law drove straight to their farm in Umbergaon. “This was just before the borders were sealed. We are in Umbergaon now. Our period of quarantine is over. But we’ll stay here. We are relatively safer than our folks in Mumbai. We don’t have to go out to buy vegetables. We grow them right here on the farm. We don’t know how long we are going to be here. But we wish our parents were with us. Right now the whole of Mumbai city feels quarantined. I just hope and pray this will be over soon.”

Hrithik Roshan is an avid social media enthusiast. The actor likes to interact with fans on social media and often documents his life through pictures. There was a time when he would be pretty straightforward on social media and even reply to thirst tweets from fans.
A couple of years ago, a fan had posted a couple of pictures on social media where she was seen posing next to Hrithik Roshan’s Madame Tussauds wax figure. Keeping it fun, she was trying to insert her figure in the statue’s underpants. This caught Hrithik’s attention who replied to this fan. His response was humorous in every way. He wrote, “U took a peek didn’t u. naughty girl! Love u.”
On the work front, Hrithik Roshan had a tremendous 2019 with two back to back hits. He played real-life mathematician Anand Kumar in Super 30 and put on some great action in YRF’s War.

Kartik Aaryan makes sure that he makes all his roles memorable. While some are known for their monologues, some are known for their quirks and dance moves. Well, who can forget that Kartik Aaryan’s Chintu Tyagi (Pati Patni Aur Woh) made us laugh, smile last year? A day ago, the actor cherished his favourite character on social media and told everyone that it remains very close to his heart.
Amidst being quarantined, everyone is hooked to Chintu Tyagi at their homes. While, on Saturday, Zee Cine Awards 2020 was telecast on a channel, and Kartik Aaryan bagged the much-deserving Best Actor in a Comic Role for Pati Patni Aur Woh, the film had its television premiere on Sunday. The hunk took to his Instagram stories and shared a lovely monochrome picture of himself posing with the trophy and flashing that million-dollar-smile. His caption read, "#ChintuTyagi will always be close to my heart. #PatiPatniAurWoh."
Kartik even shared several pictures from the set, him rehearsing to the internet-breaking 'Dheeme Dheeme' step and him winning the award for his favourite role. He has posted where he’s seen watching the film with his entire family and he captions the post saying, “Apni picture Sunday ko Family ke saath TV par dekhne wali feeling… Still unbeaten (heart emoji) And Mummy Never waits for the credits."
