‘Warner Bros Discovery to lay off 10% of film group'

Warner Bros Discovery will lay off roughly 10% of its motion picture group employees as part of a restructuring before the company splits in two, a source with knowledge of the matter said on Wednesday (July 30, 2025). The cuts will take place in marketing, distribution, production and other units. The source did not disclose how many people would be affected. In a memo to staff, Motion Picture Group Co-Chairs Pamela Abdy and Michael De Luca said company leadership had started reviewing the film group's operations in early 2025. They concluded they needed to make changes to "transform our business as we transition from a U.S. Home Office/International model to a fully global structure," the memo said. Media companies are remaking themselves to better compete in the streaming TV era. Warner Bros Discovery has announced plans to separate into two publicly traded companies. One called Warner Bros will house the film group and the HBO Max streaming service. Cable channels including CNN and TNT and the Discovery+ streaming service will become part of a company called Discovery Global. The Warner Bros film division endured high-profile flops in 2024 including "Joker: Folie A Deux" and "Furiosa." The studio has rebounded this year with hits including "A Minecraft Movie," "Sinners" and "Superman."

Naseeruddin Shah transforms into J.R.D. Tata in first look at ‘Made in India – A Titan Story'

On the occasion of J.R.D. Tata's 121st birth anniversary, Amazon MX Player and Almighty Motion Picture unveiled the first look of Made in India – A Titan Story, with veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah portraying the industrialist and visionary. The upcoming biographical series highlights the legacy of Tata, whose leadership helped shape modern India's industrial landscape. Directed by Robby Grewal and written by Karan Vyas, the six-part series explores the formation of Titan — one of India's most iconic consumer brands. Alongside Shah, the show features Jim Sarbh as Xerxes Desai, the founding managing director of Titan. The cast also includes Namita Dubey, Vaibhav Tatwawaadi, Kaveri Seth, Lakshvir Saran, and Paresh Ganatra. Made in India – A Titan Story is adapted from Vinay Kamath's book Titan: Inside India's Most Successful Consumer Brand, and traces the partnership between Tata and Desai during the 1980s. It chronicles how they navigated bureaucratic and financial challenges to build a company that revolutionised the Indian watch industry. Director Grewal said, 'Bringing J.R.D. Tata's legacy to life has been an inspiring journey. His contribution was not just about business, but also about building purpose-driven institutions. With Naseeruddin Shah in the lead, we've tried to bring depth and authenticity to this important story.' Produced by Prabhleen Sandhu of Almighty Motion Picture, the series is expected to premiere in early 2026 on Amazon MX Player. It will be available for free viewing on the platform. Shah, who recently turned 75, continues to take on prominent roles in cinema and streaming. He was last seen in IC814: The Kandahar Hijack on Netflix.

Former actor who did bold films with brother-in-law Emraan Hashmi, left acting, became DJ, married Saiyaara director

Filmmaker Mohit Suri continues to make headlines with his latest release, Saiyaara. The director makes a comeback to the romance genre with this YRF production, which marks the Bollywood debut of Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda. While many are familiar with Suri's successful films like Zeher, Kalyug, Murder 2, Aashiqui 2, Ek Villain, Malang, and more, few may know about his wife—who has been his biggest cheerleader on Instagram, especially now as Saiyaara breaks records at the box office. Mohit Suri is married to former actor-model Udita Goswami. Born on February 9, 1984, in Dehradun, Udita began her journey in the showbiz industry as a model. She started young, walking the ramp for the first time at just 16. She later moved to Delhi to pursue a modelling career, won the MTV Model Mission contest, and went on to become one of the city's most popular models. She captured public attention with her screen presence in ad campaigns for major brands like Pepsi and Titan watches. In 2003, filmmaker Pooja Bhatt gave her first break in the film Paap opposite John Abraham. Little did anyone know that Udita would one day become part of the Bhatt family itself. While Paap did not perform well at the box office, it launched Udita on the big screen and left a mark. Following Paap, Udita starred in several bold, romantic films, including Zeher (2005, directed by Mohit Suri) opposite brother-in-law Emraan Hashmi and Aksar (2006) with Dino Morea and Emraan—both commercial hits. She also appeared with Upen Patel in Ahmed Khan's music video remix of Kya Khoob Lagti Ho. Her other, less successful films included Aggar, Kisse Pyaar Karoon, Chase, Rokkk, and Mere Dost Picture Abhi Baki Hai. In 2012, Udita played the lead role in Diary of a Butterfly, directed by Vinodh Mukhi. The film received mixed reviews and became her last acting project. She then decided to follow her passion for music and quit acting, even letting go of her Hollywood dreams. Udita trained as a DJ and began performing at exclusive private parties and curated events. Her shift from films to DJing surprised many, but for Udita, it was a natural extension of her love for rhythm and sound. Over the years, she gradually faded away from the spotlight. Udita and Mohit Suri first crossed paths during the making of Zeher. Their professional connection soon turned into a strong bond and a long-term relationship. After several years of dating, the couple tied the knot in an intimate ceremony at Mumbai's Juhu ISKCON temple in 2013. They welcomed two children—a daughter in 2015 and a son in 2018. Udita's marriage to Mohit Suri made her a part of the Bhatt family, one of Bollywood's most influential film dynasties. Through Mohit, she is related to stars Alia Bhatt and Emraan Hashmi, making her their sister-in-law. Recently, Udita was spotted out and about in Mumbai with her husband Mohit Suri and their kids.
