Again, with the use of some technology, we are trying to make sure that we will be able to localise the film in languages with performance, which means that it should play in English with lip sync without subtitles or dubbed versions, because it should be in English. It should be in Spanish; it should be in Japanese in Japan." Furthermore, he had revealed that, with the help of technology, turning big ideas into reality is possible. He shared that their main goal is to tell compelling stories while staying true to the characters and keeping things as real as possible. At the same time, he stressed the importance of making movies in a way that global audiences do not feel uncomfortable or disconnected.

Aamir Khan says he's tired of telling his son Junaid Khan to get a car: 'He once took a state transport bus instead of a flight'
Aamir Khan 's son Junaid Khan made his debut with 'Maharaj' on OTT and his first theatrical release was 'Loveyapa' with Khushi Kapoor . Junaid had become a talk of the town due to his down-to-earth behaviour despite being a star-kid. He travels in auto-rickshaws and that also became a point of discussion. Now in a recent interview, Aamir has admitted that he tried convincing Junaid to take a car but he refused. The '3 Idiots' actor also recalled an instance where he chose to travel via bus instead of a flight. Aamir said in an interview with The New India, "All three of my children are very sensitive. During the pandemic, both Reena's parents caught the virus together, and Junaid immediately offered to move in with them. For two weeks, he took care of them alone, and made sure that they were okay, because even the help wasn't around then. It just shows what a sensitive person he is. I felt very proud. He added, 'You'd be shocked to know that Junaid hasn't bought a car ever. He's done two movies. He uses public transport. I'm tired of telling him to get a car; he can take one of mine, I have cars. He says, 'No, dad, I don't need a car, I just book an OLA'. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Free P2,000 GCash eGift UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo He was in Kerala one time, and he had to attend a friend's wedding in Bengaluru. I asked him what flight he's on, and he said that he's taking the overnight state transport bus. He's an unusual kind of person. But they were never raised to be materialistic. I don't care for money much myself.' Junaid had revealed in an interview that he choses a certain lifestyle just for convenience. For instance, travelling in train to Mira Road is easier than being stuck in traffic for two hours. He had also said during a chat with Connect Cine, 'Papa makes a big deal out of small things. I just travel the most efficient way of traveling. I often take rickshaws in Mumbai because it is easier to get around and not worry about parking. '

Rashmika Mandanna Defends Ranbir Kapoor's Grey Character In Animal: "Nobody Is Forcing You To Watch"
New Delhi: Rashmika Mandanna, in a recent interview, once again reacted to the Animal controversy. Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Animal minted crores at the box office but a section of the Internet slammed the film for its problematic take on masculinity and misogynistic tone. What's Happening In a recent conversation with Barkha Dutt on Mojo Story, Rashmika Mandanna was asked if she would smoke on screen. Though she has a reservation for smoking on screen, she has defended Ranbir Kapoor's flawed character in the film. Rasmika Mandanna argued that audience should watch a film as a film and they can decide what they want to watch. "I saw the film as a film. When a hero is smoking on screen, people say he is influencing others to do so. But today, it's very normal in society for people to smoke. I don't go to watch a film to be influenced in any way. Personally, I would never smoke on screen, but that's my perspective. "If I am part of Animal, I will still say go watch a film as a film. Now, if someone is going to be influenced by a film, then watch your kind of films. Nobody is forcing anybody to watch a film. If that were the case, every film would be a blockbuster," said Rashmika. Responding to the backlash the film received which is still making waves in the popular culture, Rashmika said, "There are grey characters in each one of us-we are never just black or white. We all have grey in us. It's just that Sandeep Reddy Vanga spoke about a messed-up character, and that's about it. It seems to me that people have celebrated it because it made the numbers. So I didn't feel I had to be disturbed by the conversation. We made this film, it worked, people liked or disliked it-that's their personal thing. People should really go watch a film for what it is, and not judge an actor for playing these characters. It's acting for a reason." About Animal's Reception In The Industry Celebrities like Javed Akhtar, Konkona Sen Sharma expressed their thoughts on the film and they didn't approve of the content of the film. However, filmmakers like Karan Johar and Anurag Kashyap applauded the film for its style of making without delving much into the moral fabric of the film. At the Forbes India Leadership Awards 2024, Karan Johar said, "I didn't go deep into the moral communication of the film - I was so swept by the narrative and the way the filmmaker told the story of it through sound design, screenplay, dialogue, character development, that as a filmmaker, I loved it." In A Nutshell Rashmika Mandanna, who played Ranbir Kapoor's love interest in the film, defended the superstar's flawed character in a recent interview.
