Bollywood Hungama in December had put up an article, informing about the mother of all clashes happening at the box office during Eid 2020. As it happens every year on this festival, a Salman Khan-starrer is already scheduled to release. Titled Radhe - Your Most Wanted Bhai, it co-stars Disha Patani, Randeep Hooda and Jackie Shroff and is directed by Prabhudheva. While Salman usually comes solo on Eid, this time he’ll be joined by Akshay Kumar as he brings his horror comedy Laxmmi Bomb on May 22, 2020 as well. It also features Kiara Advani and this Raghava Lawrence directorial is the remake of popular Tamil film Muni 2: Kanchana. If you that was enough, then you are mistaken. In February last year, it was revealed that Fast & Furious 9 will also arrive on this day!

Fast & Furious 9 CONFIRMED for Eid 2020; THREE-WAY clash with Radhe and Laxmmi Bomb is ON!

A few hours ago, the much-awaited trailer of Fast & Furious 9 was released and has met with an excellent response. The official social media handles of Universal Pictures India too uploaded the trailer and many expected that the release date of India might be changed to avoid clash. However, they have made it clear that the action packed flick will release on May 22 worldwide, including in India!

The initial parts of Fast & Furious weren’t that big in the country, box office-wise. But things began to gradually from the fifth part, which came in 2011. Fast & Furious 7 had taken the biggest opening for a Hollywood film in 2015 then and was the first Hollywood film to cross the coveted Rs. 100 crore mark. The series is extremely popular and its lead actor Vin Diesel is recognized and loved even by non-English speaking audiences.

Fast & Furious 8, which released in 2017, couldn’t cross the Rs. 100 crore mark but still did huge business of Rs. 86.23 crore. Hence, the expectations are immense from the ninth part as well. That it releases on a festival can give it an added boost. However, with two other films clashing on the same day, trade is worried as not just audiences, but even business will get divided. A small section of trade is hopeful that at least one out of these three films will bow down and opt out of the Eid race. But as of now, the three-way-clash on Eid 2020 is very much on!

Over the years, Valentine’s Day has become a national holiday of sorts, especially for the film industry. The collections on this day go on a high, especially if the film has something that appeals the youth. In the recent past, films like Gully Boy and Gunday released on February 14 in 2014 and 2019 respectively and both the films saw excellent collections. This year will see the release of Love Aaj Kal, starring Kartik Aaryan and Sara Ali Khan, and it also expected to fetch a flying start, one of the reasons being Valentine’s Day.

Akshay Kumar - Sara Ali Khan - Dhanush to CLASH with Deepika Padukone -Siddhant Chaturvedi - Ananya Panday on Valentine's Day 2021!

Today, it came to light that Sara Ali Khan will arrive in cinemas on Valentine’s Day 2021 as well. The film in question is Atrangi Re, co-starring Akshay Kumar and Dhanush. Directed by Aanand L Rai, this film was announced today and its first look poster was also released. Needless to say, the star cast and Anand L Rai directing the film has already enhanced the hype for Atrangi Re.

As it happens with any major festival, clashes are inevitable. Valentine’s Day is not an exception and Atrangi Re will be releasing alongside director Shakun Batra’s next, produced by Karan Johar. It also has an enviable cast, comprising of Deepika Padukone, Siddhant Chaturvedi and Ananya Panday. As per reports, there’ll be one more male actor which will be locked soon. The film was officially announced in December 2019 and it was the first film to grab the Valentine’s Day 2021 spot. Not much is known about this flick but Deepika in an interview revealed, “Shakun’s film is kind of in the Cocktail and Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani space but also new in many ways. It belongs to a genre that we haven’t attempted in Indian cinema before.” Again, the star cast and the fact that Shakun Batra, who made the acclaimed Kapoor & Sons is helming it, has led to considerable excitement.

What’s also worth noting is that Valentine’s Day in 2021 falls on Sunday. So both films shall release on February 12. Will both the films get the Valentine’s Day advantage like its predecessors remains to be seen.

In 2018, the world was introduced to the magic of Cuckoo which was brought alive on the screen by actress Kubbra Sait. One might have not noticed her limited screen appearance in big films like Sultan and Ready. However, her persistence got her the Sacred Games and now she along with Sartaj is back for Jawaani Jaaneman. Kubbra Sait is now all set to play a character, as she would like to put ‘ hot and pretty’ in the film being headlined by Saif Ali Khan, Tabu and debutante Alaya F. In an exclusive conversation with Bollywood Hungama, Kubbra Sait opened up about Jawaani Jaaneman and working with Saif Ali Khan.

"I got Jawaani Jaaneman without an audition. Saif Ali Khan recommended me,” says Kubbra Sait

Kubbra and Saif Ali Khan previously worked on the web series Sacred Games, though they did not share screen in the Netflix original series. However, her performance not only impressed the audience but looks like Saif Ali Khan also took notice. Talking about landing the role of Saif's confidante in Jawaani Jaaneman, Kubbra said, "I got this without an audition. I got a narration. Much later I found out that I was recommended by Saif. So, once Saif recommends you, the excitement has died and pressure has taken place and you have pressure to perform and do work also."

From the trailer of Jawaani Jaaneman, one gets to know that Kubbra plays a hairdresser and also a friend to Saif who listens to his problems. Talking further about her character, Kubbra said, "She is a hairdresser. All of us have a hairdresser in our life. Somebody who listens to you without judgement and keeps your secret. She is one of those secret keepers without judgement.”

Kubbra Sait who has transitioned from being a host to an actor, spoke further about playing a best friend and how there is no fear of being stereotyped now. “If you were told 20 years ago, that you got the role of a best friend, people would say that for the next 40 years you will only play the role of a best friend. Thankfully, today's best friend or even a friend has so many shades of niceness and kindness. I remember reading an interview of Waheeda Rehman ji when she said that I don't want to play a regular mother, I want to play a different mother. And I was like this is such a smart thing to say because no two mother or no two friends are the same. For me this opportunity was fun. In my head I would say I am Saif’s girlfriend."

Not only is it new for Alaya F to perform alongside Saif, but same is the case with Kubbra. Talking about how it was working with Saif, Kubbra said, "He is awesome. He doesn't take himself too seriously. He makes it incredibly easy for people to work with him. But I think what stood out for me the most is that he is so collaborative on a script that before a scene you sit together and run your lines together and you are questioning till the last minute 'do I need to do this or say this'. And you put everything together. He is not the kind of person who says, ‘yaar mera do line nahi hai. Mereko aur line do.’ None of that. And then in addition to all of that, his skill is very evident. Say like he takes 10 takes and he will know which take will make to the edit and that is the skills that will only come with experience. He knows exactly which will make it to the edit table and that is what blew my mind. To see him as a performer, as a person is outstanding."

Talking about Jawaani Jaaneman, Kubbra said, “There are films that have content and driven by content and you watch it to have something shipped inside you. And then you got a genre of film where everybody says leave your brain at home and to not question the film. Rarely do you get a film that does both. For me a Dil Chahta Hai is that kind of a contemporary film where you can have a lot of fun and yet it leaves something with you and ships something inside you. For me, Jawaani Jaaneman is also one of those happy go lucky film for which you don't need to leave your brains at home. Bring your brain with you and you will still enjoy the film and I think that is what is special about it.”

Jawaani Jaaneman is scheduled to hit the screens on January 31.
