‘System is so cruel': OMG 2 director disappointed after his Shahid Kapoor film on Shivaji gets shelved, wonders if his ‘Rs 180 cr film was not enough' proof
Vicky Kaushal-starrer Chhaava has been the biggest Hindi hit of the year so far and until Saiyaara came along, it seemed like Chhaava's throne might remain untouched. While that is yet to be determined, another film based on the life of another Maratha king, Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, has been shelved. Amit Rai, of OMG 2 fame, was going to direct the film and Shahid Kapoor was attached to the project. Amit blamed the 'cruel system' for his film getting shelved and said that despite his last film doing really well, his hard work of five years has been destroyed. In a chat with Mid-day, Amit said, 'The system is so cruel. Even if you have proved your mettle with a R180 crore film [OMG 2], it's not enough.' Amit did not explain why his project was shelved but expressed his disappointment with the systemic problems of the film industry. 'How is a director supposed to work here, under these systems of casting, production, star, and management? You live with a story for five years, and within minutes, somebody writes a five-pager, pointing out what is wrong and what is right in the film,' he said. Exclusive | Salman Khan's Bigg Boss 19 fees revealed, actor to charge between Rs 120-150 crores for three months In 2024, it was reported that Amit's film would be produced by Telugu film producer Dil Raju, and Shahid was already attached to the project. At the time, he was also going to star in Ashwatthama, which was later put on hold due to budget constraints. A post shared by Riteish Deshmukh (@riteishd) Meanwhile, Riteish Deshmukh has already announced his film, Raja Shivaji, based on the life of Shivaji.

Vaani Kapoor opens up about surviving Bollywood as an outsider: 'Don't have chachas, chachis to root for you'
In an industry known for its close-knit cliques and family legacies, actor Vaani Kapoor spoke candidly about her journey as an outsider in Bollywood. The War actor opened up about navigating the film industry without the safety net of influential relatives or a support system. Vaani Kapoor credits Yash Raj Films for believing in her and ensuring professionalism in the industry.(PTI) 'You have to be your biggest cheerleader' In an interview with Siddharth Kannan, Vaani, who started her career in 2013 with Shuddh Desi Romance along with Sushant Singh Rajput and Parineeti Chopra, said, "You have to be your biggest cheerleader in this industry. Especially when you are an outsider and don't have a support system. You don't have uncles and aunties and chachas and chachis who care for us and root for us. I'm also bad at networking." Vaani credits Yash Raj Films (YRF), the studio that launched her, for being a game-changer in her life. "The people and the studio that found me — Yash Raj — are the ones who believed in me. They've been like a family. Any actor who signs up with them will vouch for it — you feel protected, like you're in the right hands." She also touched on the industry's darker side, noting that she never experienced the casting couch — something she attributes to the professionalism and security she found at YRF. Talking about Shanoo Sharma, Vaani mentioned how she comforted her family to help them the decision to send their child to a new city and start a career in the film industry. Vaani Kapoor's latest work Vaani Kapoor is gearing up for the release of her latest project, Mandala Murders, a gripping crime thriller series in which she plays a sharp and determined investigative officer.
