Son of Sardaar 2 advance booking open; Ajay Devgn, Mrunal Thakur film tickets rolled out at 50% discount for day 1
Vijay Kumar Arora's Ajay Devgn and Mrunal Thakur-starrer Son of Sardaar 2 will be released in theatres this Friday, 1 August. The film, a sequel to the 2012 action comedy Son of Sardaar, will have tough competition from Mohit Suri's Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda-starrer Saiyaara, which is having a dream run and Ayan Mukerji's Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR-starrer War 2. Advance bookings for Son of Sardaar 2 opened on Tuesday night, giving the audience a 50% discount on day 1. Mrunal Thakur and Ajay Devgn during the promotion of their upcoming film Son of Sardaar 2 in Mumbai.(PTI) Son of Sardaar 2 tickets at 50% discount on day 1 Son of Sardaar 2 was initially slated for release on 25 July, but the release was postponed to 1 August. Jio Studios, the film's producers, announced that the audience can buy tickets for the film at 50% off on BookMyShow for the opening day. 'Laughter 100%. Ticket price 50%! Gather your full family and come watch #SonOfSardaar2. Use code SOS2 & get 50% OFF (T&C Applied),' they wrote, making the announcement. The code will offer up to ₹200 off and is only applicable when buying two tickets. Son of Sardaar 2 to face-off Saiyaara and War 2 Saiyaara was released in theatres on 18 July and had a strong run at the box office. According to Sacnilk, the Ahaan-Aneet film opened to ₹21.50 crore net in India and ₹29.75 crore worldwide. The film has since crossed the ₹400 crore mark worldwide, impressive given that it features debutants. Son of Sardaar 2 is a slapstick comedy that hopes to bank big on the audience looking for some lighthearted humour. But given the film's release timing, it will also have Ayan Mukerji's War 2 to contend with in two weeks' time after its release on 14 August. The Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR-starrer is one of the most-awaited films in Indian cinema currently. Ajay's last film, Raid 2, made ₹173.05 crore net in India and ₹237 crore worldwide. It remains to be seen how Son of Sardaar 2 fares.

‘Hold my hand, I'm anxious': Why touch is a superpower we're still afraid of
While spiralling through Instagram reels one late night, I came across a clip of Pedro Pascal and Vanessa Kirby during a Fantastic Four interview. In it, Kirby was gently stroking Pascal's face, holding his hand, and even rubbing his back while he answered questions. It was brief, subtle, and entirely non-verbal, but I felt it was loaded with emotion. Apparently, the two share a strong bond off-camera, and Pascal has spoken about how physical touch helps him manage anxiety during stressful press events. Since I watched the Reel twice, the Instagram algorithm served me more –– fan reactions, think pieces, breakdowns of 'chemistry,' and even a Drew Barrymore Show moment where Cynthia Erivo explained how she and Ariana Grande hold hands during interviews to ground each other. 'I don't think it's romantic,' Erivo once clarified, 'it's just… we love each other and that's how we show up for each other.' Barrymore, who's long been known for hugging her guests, nodded along, even calling it 'the safest way to connect.' It made me think about the power of touch, and the many ways it's helped me. I remember a job interview I was terrified to attend. My girlfriend, who'd accompanied me, held my hand all the way there. She didn't let go until I walked into the building. That single gesture made me feel like I could handle anything. I was so centred by the time I sat across from the interviewer, that when he asked me about my evening plans, I said without hesitation, 'I can't wait to go back to my girlfriend. She's the reason I'm even sitting here confidently.' A more recent example is from last year, before setting off on the Srinagar–Ladakh–Manali bike circuit with two of my closest engineering college friends, I was riddled with fear. I survived a near-fatal bike accident in 2016 and had since sworn off long rides. This trip was a giant leap, physically and emotionally. Before we got on our bikes, my friend gave me a hug. It was brief, but tight. It said everything: 'I'm proud of you. You've got this. We'll do it together.' That hug cracked open something in me, and I didn't falter once in those 12 days of intense riding and off-roading. Touch is our oldest form of communication. Long before we had language, we had hands –– reaching, holding, reassuring. Today, science backs what our instincts already know. A landmark study from the University of North Carolina found that a 20-second hug between partners not only lowers cortisol – the stress hormone – but also reduces blood pressure and heart rate. 'Hugging is a powerful way to buffer stress,' said lead researcher Dr Karen Grewen. Dr Tiffany Field, director of the Touch Research Institute at the University of Miami, notes that even small amounts of physical contact – like a shoulder squeeze or hand-hold – can activate the parasympathetic nervous system. 'It's like hitting the body's reset button,' she says. 'Touch calms the fight-or-flight response. It tells your brain: you're safe now.' Neuroscientist Dr James Coan's brain imaging studies have shown that people who experience supportive touch during moments of fear or pain display less activity in brain regions associated with threat. 'A simple hand-hold from someone you trust can literally change your brain's response to stress,' he told Psychology Today. In India, however, we're often awkward – if not outright uncomfortable – with physical affection. A lingering hug, a hand held too long, or a back rub among friends raises eyebrows. Even among families, hugs aren't always second nature. This discomfort is cultural. Our relationship with physical intimacy has long been policed by notions of modesty, gender roles, and public decorum. Even Bollywood, once famous for its platonic touch-heavy friendships – think Dil Chahta Hai or Rang De Basanti – has in recent years retreated into choreographed intimacy. We police who touches whom, and in what context, as if affection is always loaded with intent. That's why when two actors hold hands or hug on camera, even in non-romantic settings, it becomes content. It's dissected, judged, misinterpreted. Because we're not used to seeing emotional vulnerability, especially expressed physically, especially between adults, and especially between men and women. In the West, moments like the Pascal-Kirby clip or Erivo-Grande hand-hold are still debated online, but there's an evolving understanding around physical touch. Even body language experts who analysed the Pascal-Kirby video noted that the gestures were comforting, not flirtatious. 'It's not romantic intimacy, it's nervous system support,' wrote one commenter. 'You can tell they trust each other.' But perhaps it's time to change that. Hugs aren't always loaded. Hand-holding isn't always romantic. Sometimes, it's just a friend saying: I'm here. I've got you. Like Pascal and Kirby. Like Erivo and Grande. Like my friend, on that mountain road. Touch, when consensual and respectful, is a lifeline, not a threat. It's not a performance, it's presence. And in a world that moves so fast, sometimes the most radical thing we can do for someone is… staying still, holding their hand, and giving them a hug. Mind the Heart attempts to uncover the unspoken in our relationships – or the over-discussed, without nuance – spanning solo paths, family bonds, and romantic hopes.

Chunky Panday lost Tridev as he haggled over Rs 1-2 lakh, recalls director Rajiv Rai: ‘He is a kanjoos, keeps one cigarette so no one borrows it'
Actor Chunky Panday has often been very vocal about not getting his due in the film industry. And recently, in an interview with Sidharth Kannan, director Rajiv Rai revealed how Chunky Panday lost out on Tridev over money-related issues. During the conversation, Rajiv also called Chunky 'kanjoos' (a miser) and money-minded. Chunky is actor Ananya Panday's father. Talking about how he considered casting Chunky Panday, after things didn't work out with Sanjay Dutt, Rajiv said, 'Chunky Panday wouldn't come around for Tridev, he is a very nice guy, but he harrowed me. For some actors, money matters. Chunky was very nice to me. I went to his house 20-25 times, then I got tired. If I had any complaints about him, would I work with him in Vishwatma? Just that he used to haggle for 1-2 lakhs, he wanted to do the film, but then I said no because he wanted more money. He has that nature; he is kanjoos.' Also Read: Chunky Panday says he attended a funeral for money, was told he'll get more if he cries: 'The body was right in front of me' A post shared by Chunky Panday (@chunkypanday) Rajiv also recalled an incident from the shooting of Vishwatma and shared, 'During Vishwatma, he would only keep one cigarette with him, I would think it's the last one, so it's best left for Chunky. One day, he told me that he only kept one cigarette so that nobody would ask for it. He jokes about himself all the time. That time, due to some issue for very little money, and maybe he was a star those days, the film didn't happen.' A post shared by Chunky Panday (@chunkypanday) On the work front, Chunky Panday was last seen in Housefull 5; he will be next seen in Son Of Sardaar 2. Currently, Chunky's daughter, Ananya Panday, is an established name in the industry. His nephew Ahaan Panday also made his Bollywood debut with Saiyaara this month, and Ahaan's film has been doing very well at the box office.
