On Thursday, Viacom18 announced that the Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone-starrer Fighter will be India’s ‘first aerial action franchise’. Described as a ‘high-octane cinematic spectacle’, Siddharth Anand’s directorial venture ‘salutes the valour, sacrifice and patriotism’ of our armed forces. “Being a Top Gun [1986] fan, I have been looking for a script for years that explores aerial action and has a story rooted in India. Siddharth understands this genre and brings a unique flair to his films. I am excited to collaborate with him in building this franchise,” says Ajit Andhare of Viacom18. Anand, who considers Fighter a dream project, adds, “We aim to put Indian films on the map for action-loving global theatrical audiences, who crave for spectacle and the big screen experience.” Fighter will be shot at locations across the world.

The Delhi high court has granted Juhi Chawla time till July 14 to pay the fine of Rs 20 lakh for her lawsuit challenging 5G wireless technology.

Web series on Bhopal tragedy

Emmy-award winning Delhi Crime creator Richie Mehta is now making a web series on the 1984 Bhopal gas tragedy. He has come on board as showrunner, writer, and director for the project backed by Ronnie Screwvala and Ramesh Krishnamoorthy. It is based on Dominique Lapierre and Javier Moro’s 1997 book, Five Past Midnight in Bhopal. Mehta aims to bring the incident to screen in an “impartial manner” for the audience, who may have forgotten it, which killed over 15,000 people and affected lakhs.

Varun Dhawan is bidding goodbye to his “long hair and bearded look” for Amar Kaushik’s Bhediya. The actor, who has wrapped up the thriller, says, “But something tells me this is not the end, but a new beginning.” Dhawan moves on to his next soon.

Veg biryani or pulao?

Sonu Sood tucked into the “world’s best veg biryani” in Hyderabad, courtesy his host, Telangana minister KT Rama Rao. As soon as the actor shared his dining experience, a section of netizens could not digest it. “Veg biryani shouldn’t exist,” wrote a social media user. Inspired by Batman’s iconic dialogue, another user added, “You either die a hero, or live long enough to endorse veg biryani.” Sood is a vegetarian so he was also schooled by some, who told him, “There is no such thing as a veg biryani, it’s pulao!”
