Salman Khan supports Veer Pahadia's film 'Prem Keetanu'; it will compete with 'Drishyam 3'

Salman Khan attended a special screening in support of Veer Pahadia's upcoming film 'Prem Keetanu'. This film is scheduled to be released in theaters on October 2nd on the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti, and it will directly compete with Ajay Devgn's 'Drishyam: The Conclusion'.

The movie is based on college life and portrays love, friendship, and the struggles of young Indians.

Superstar Salman Khan made his presence felt at the special screening of Veer Pahadia's film 'Prem Keetanu'. He arrived at the event in a casual yet stylish look, wearing a light blue shirt with white trousers and sunglasses. Later, he was seen posing for pictures with a young man.

For the special screening, the actor wore a light blue shirt (with rolled-up sleeves) and white trousers. He completed his look with dark sunglasses, a watch, and a bracelet. Salman Khan's presence added vibrancy to the event, as he came to support Veer Pahadia before the film's release.

Besides Salman, several other dignitaries were present at the special screening, including Sara Tendulkar, Himesh Reshammiya, and his wife.

'Prem Keetanu' is an upcoming Hindi comedy-drama-romance film starring Veer Pahadia. Apurva Singh Karki is directing the film, and Aparshakti Khurana and Afia Syed are also in major roles.

The film is produced under the banner of Avnika Films by Gaurav Verma. Initially, it was speculated that it would be a Hindi remake of the Malayalam romantic comedy 'Premalu'. However, Veer Pahadia clarified that 'Prem Keetanu' is an original story and not based on any remake.

Ajay Devgn's much-anticipated film 'Drishyam: The Conclusion' is also releasing on October 2nd at the box office. In this context, it will be interesting to see how much benefit 'Prem Keetanu' receives with the support of Salman Khan.

Review of the first 15 days of Bigg Boss 20: The influence of Salman Khan and Kajji Taukir on the show's trajectory

If you have any notion of hidden games or plans within the 'Bigg Boss 20' house, you should dispel that illusion. In reality, the success of this season rests on the support of just two key figures: the imposing authority of 'Dabangg' Salman Khan and the relaxed style of Kajji Taukir. The other contestants seem to have simply entered the 'Bigg Boss' house for free food and air conditioning.

The first day of broadcast caused shock

When the contestants started appearing at the premiere night, viewers in front of the television were stunned. Everyone had the same question in their minds: was the 'Bigg Boss' team really casting while half-asleep? Judging by the lineup, there was no feeling that this was the new season of the country's biggest reality show. There was a fear that spending even 15 days with these unfamiliar and weak personalities would be like climbing a mountain.

'Weekend Ka Vaar' saves the situation

However, as they say, when it is dark around, Salman Khan brings the light. The real drama began during Salman Khan's appearance in the 'Singham' style. In recent years, haters criticized, claiming that Salman was tired and his energy had faded. But what happened in 'Weekend Ka Vaar' sent shivers down the spine across the country. Angered by trolls, Salman took off his T-shirt and threw it, removed his makeup, and challenged the trolls so intensely that the entire social media space shook. The falling TRP graph began to rise rapidly thanks to Salman's authoritative mood. 'Weekend Ka Vaar' turned from just an episode into a blockbuster thriller.

Kajji Taukir is the only 'stopper' in the house

If Salman Khan provides oxygen to the show by appearing on weekends, then during the other five days, Kajji Taukir fills the air in the house. His rock-and-roll 'I don't care' attitude, willingness to confront without fear, and the father-daughter relationship with Arishfa keep viewers glued to the screen. He remains a dominant figure among all the other contestants, remaining untouched by any intrigues or cliques happening inside the house. Arishfa also makes every effort to make the show engaging.

The 'Drama Meter' of the other contestants

Personalities such as Isha Rishi, Riti Tiwari, and Aman cause 'Bigg Boss' itself to doubt their presence in the house. Their participation or absence does not matter significantly. A genuine 'aunty'-style gossip is brewing between Mahi Vidh and Amrapali, which maintains some level of drama in the house through their petty arguments and 'cat fights'. As for Lav, when she appears on screen or starts screaming, viewers instinctively look for the 'mute' button. Her anger causes more headaches than entertainment.

Final verdict after 15 days

Overall, the entire reputation of 'Bigg Boss 20' currently rests on the strong host Salman Khan and the 'solo show' of Kajji Taukir. The burden of TRP lies mainly on Salman Khan, while inside the house, Kajji Taukir saves the sinking ship of this show. Now it is very interesting to see if Kajji can maintain the rating on his own shoulders throughout the season, or if Salman Khan will have to appear every week and 'scold' someone. The drama is yet to come, and the gossip market is heating up, so keep watching 'Bigg Boss'.

Al্ল Arjun and Deepika Padukone's film 'Raka' compared to 'Avatar'

The film 'Raka', starring Allu Arjun and Deepika Padukone, is one of the most anticipated movies. The first look at Allu Arjun's film generated significant buzz even before its premiere. On Saturday, at an event launching the Tamil film 'Batta' music, Atti and several other directors were present.

Filmmaker Sibi Chakravarty highly praised Atti's work and compared 'Raka' to the film 'Avatar'. Sibi noted: 'I have seen the visual effects of his films; he showed them to me. It doesn't seem to me that 'Avatar' has such visual effects. Everyone will understand what I mean in three days. The visual effects were exceptional.'

According to available information, the creators plan to release the first look at the film to celebrate Atti's 40th anniversary, which will take place on September 21, 2026.

One social media user reacted to the video, writing that no one expects 'Raka' to be equal to 'Avatar', and that the statement was made under emotional influence. They added that those who believe 'Raka' will be equal to 'Avatar' are mistaken.

Another user on X clarified that the director meant he had never seen such creatures before, even in the film 'Avatar', not that 'Raka' is better than 'Avatar'.

Yet another commentator stated that while actors or directors might say something, in the case of 'Raka', neither Atti nor the actors did. Nevertheless, they expressed confidence that Atti could achieve it, given that the Tamil audience knows his capabilities.

The creators of 'Raka' published a video on Saturday, hinting at the expectations for the film. The video included captions such as: 'Beyond what seemed possible. We dared to imagine. We dared to achieve. Raka — a global victory.'

Although it has been officially announced that Allu Arjun and Deepika will participate in the film, rumors suggest that Rashmika Mandanna, Janhvi Kapoor, and Mrinal Thakur are also starring in the project. However, the casting of the other actresses has not been confirmed.

Despite the creators not having announced an official release date yet, rumors suggest that 'Raka' will be released in theaters in December 2027.
