Rajiv Rai

The narration never happened, but we started consuming liquor. Later, when it was 2 am, I left his house in an inebriated state, and I crashed my car,' the 65-year-old said.
'It was before 'Rocky'; the glass broke on my face, so I had all the cut marks. He had given me a present of four liquor bottles, and with that, I went home and slept,' he continued, before hilariously adding, 'The next morning, when Dutt Sahab (
Sunil

Aamir Khan and Genelia D'Souza's film 'Sitaare Zameen Par' has once again proven that it is here to stay! Despite new releases in Bollywood and competition from regional and international cinema, the movie continues to maintain a stronghold at the box office. According to the latest updates, on its third Sunday, the heartwarming drama managed to earn over Rs. 6 crore, bringing the total of 'Sitaare Zameen Par' closer to the Rs. 150 crore mark in India across all languages. 'Sitaare Zameen Par' Box Office collection day 17 According to the trade analyst Sacnilk's report, 'Sitaare Zameen Par', after witnessing a drop during the second week, picked up pace on its third Saturday. The collection on Saturday was Rs. 4.75 crores, which was more than a 90 percent increase from the Friday business. Then on Sunday, the business further soared, as the movie minted Rs. 6.25 crore. With these numbers, the box office collection of 'Sitaare Zameen Par' stands at Rs 148.80 Cr net in the domestic market.

About 'Sitaare Zameen Par' 'Sitaare Zameen Par' is yet another masterpiece given by Mr. Perfectionist. The story sees a brash basketball coach who faces suspension for hiting the head coach. Not just this, he has other legal woes as well, and as an alternative to jail time, he is asked to serve community service. This service entailed the task of coaching a team of neurodivergent athletes, and from there, the real magic began. Directed by RS Prasanna, the film sees Genelia D'Souza alongside Aamir Khan. Further, there are 10 new faces that made their debut in the movie: Ashish Pendse, Rishi Shahani, Aroush Datta, Gopi Krishna Varma, Vedant Sharma, Ayush Bhansali, Samvit Desai, Rishabh Jain, Naman Mishra, and Simran Mangeshkar. 'Sitaare Zameen Par' review With a rating of 3 stars, an excerpt from the TOI review reads - 'Despite a sensitive and layered subject, R S Prasanna's directorial venture, written by Divy Nidhi Sharma, remains a wholesome, feel-good watch. It strikes a commendable balance between delivering a message and educating viewers about ID, all with a lighthearted touch. At its core is a message of inclusivity—conveying that people with ID are employable, independent, full of life, and deeply empathetic. The film sensitively portrays the characteristic traits of the players' conditions without reducing them to labels—Bantu's (Vedant Sharma) stimming through ear-scratching, Guddu's (GopiKrishnan K Verma) aquaphobia, Sharmaji's (Rishi Shahani) speech impairment, and the less-recognised invisible autism in high-functioning Hargovind (Naman Misra). These are presented as facets of their personalities, not just symptoms.'

Indian Gen Zs Are Throwing Fake Weddings For Fun, Here's All About This OTT Party Trend
Last Updated: The Gen Z has moved away from the done and overdone cliche club nights. The hottest party trend they have started instead is a fake wedding party. Forget club nights and sundowner parties – the Gen Z in India has a knack for doing 'hatke' things, and this latest party trend is yet another proof. Gen Z has found a new way to party, and it's as extra as it is oddly wholesome. Welcome to the era of fake weddings. It's the newest trend where groups of friends throw a full-blown shaadi celebration, minus the actual bride and groom. What started as a quirky trend abroad has now found its glittering Indian avatar. Think: mandap setups, baraat-style entries, choreographed sangeet performances, wedding invites, a fake pandit, and yes, even a dhol wala for dramatic effect. At the heart of it is a simple idea: everyone loves the joy of Indian weddings, so why wait for someone to get married? A Wedding Without the Drama For Gen Z, who grew up watching grand Bollywood weddings and endless shaadi reels on Instagram, the fake wedding trend offers a chance to celebrate without the stress, family politics, or actual lifelong commitment. The idea is to dress up in your lehengas and sherwanis, dance your heart out, toast to love, and party like it's your own wedding (just without the future in-laws). What Is The Vibe? Fake weddings are over-the-top, deeply ironic, and designed for the 'Gram. You'll spot hashtags like #NotActuallyMarried and #ShaadiForTheVibe under Reels showing everything from haldi moments in Airbnb gardens to full buffet spreads featuring chaat counters and mocktails. What started as a fun party trend among Gen Z has now found many takers. Event management companies and even bars are hosting fake wedding parties with paid entry and food. In a world where traditional milestones are being delayed or redefined, this trend gives young people a way to embrace celebration on their own terms. It's campy, chaotic, and community-driven: exactly what Gen Z does best. So, if you see someone in a sherwani doing bhangra at a farmhouse on the outskirts of your city or in a bar with no actual bride in sight, don't be confused. It's probably just another Saturday night in Gen Z style. First Published: July 06, 2025, 17:50 IST
