Sarzameen Twitter reviews: Viewers find Ibrahim Ali Khan ‘miscast' in ‘average' patriotic drama ft. Kajol, Prithviraj
Sarzameen Twitter reviews: Ibrahim Ali Khan, Kajol and Prithviraj Sukumaran-starrer Sarzameen released on JioHotstar on July 25. Directed by Kayoze Irani, the film is a patriotic thriller that promises big twists and an emotional drama. Several viewers who watched the film took to their X accounts to share their review, and if the reactions are anything to go by, then Sarzameen has failed to live up to expectations. (Also read: Sarzameen review: This Ibrahim Ali Khan, Kajol, Prithviraj Sukumaran snoozefest has a lot going on, none of it works) Sarzameen Twitter reviews: Ibrahim Ali Khan plays a terrorist in the film. Did Ibrahim Ali Khan fare better than Nadaaniyan? Ibrahim's debut performance in Nadaaniyan received a lot of criticism upon release earlier this year. Did he fare better this time? A viewer who saw the film did not think so: 'Good performances from Prithviraj & Kajol. Ibrahim Ali Khan is a misfit, emotionless facial reactions. Kashmir visuals are beautiful. Familiar Story with an interesting climax. There are emotions & patriotism in film, but could not connect to it due to weak writing. BELOW AVERAGE!' Another viewer reviewed, 'Sarzameen is a below average thriller. Could have been more intense and gripping.' Weak screenplay fails to deliver Many also pointed out that the film is saddled with a weak screenplay. 'Sarzameen had a solid premise but failed to deliver. Weak screenplay and direction let it down. Prithvi, Kajol & the rest of the cast did well, but there was no real emotional connect. Overall, a mid watch with no standout moments,' read a review from a viewer who was left disappointed after watching the film. Another review noted, '#Sarzameen is an above average film especially for the performances of @itsKajolD @PrithviOfficial and a sincere #IbrahimAliKhan . The familiar storyline and treatment and dejavu to mission Kashmir cannot be ignored. A sincere attempt nevertheless. Watchable.' Praise for Kajol and Prithviraj Many viewers praised the performances of Kajol and Prithviraj. 'All I can say is Kajol absolutely nailed it. What a phenomenal actress... Same for Prithviraj, they were both amazing! Even without fully understanding the language, they made me feel everything,' wrote a viewer. A second review read, 'Sarzameen failed to impress. Still waiting for Ibrahim Ali Khan good movie. Prithvi sir and Kajol ma'am do their job very well but not enough. Weak screenplay, weak direction. The movie is too slow.' Sarzameen revolves around one family in Kashmir where Prithviraj Sukumaran plays a strict and upright army officer, who admits that he is embarrassed of his son, in front of his wife (played by Kajol). Years later, their son Harman (Ibrahim Ali Khan) is revealed to be a threat as he gets involved with terrorists. The film is backed by Dharma Productions. Soumil Shukla and Arun Singh wrote the story and screenplay. Kayoze Irani directed the film.

Karan Johar says Kajol would change sarees behind tree during DDLJ, recalls brushing her hair: 'Didn't have money to…'
Filmmaker Karan Johar gets candid about his early days in Bollywood, recalling the hustle behind the making of Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge. In a recent conversation with Jay Shetty on his podcast, the filmmaker opened up about the hands-on work he did as an assistant director, from designing costumes for Shah Rukh Khan to managing crowds on set. Karan Johar recalls being an AD on Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge. Karan recalled how shooting a film earlier was not as easy as it is today. He mentioned that, unlike today, there were no separate departments for different tasks, and the assistant directors had to do everything. Karan revealed that during DDLJ, he, along with two other assistants, was responsible for writing dialogues and giving them to the actors, maintaining continuity, and also handling the crowds. He recalled being the costume designer for Shah Rukh Khan on set. Karan Johar on struggles behind DDLJ shoot He further shared that working on DDLJ for one year was the 'best learning' of his life and recalled how he used to buy accessories for the female actors in the film from railway stations at a lower cost, and arrange their costumes. Recalling the shoot in Switzerland, Karan said, 'We were a unit of 21 people, just 21 people making a movie in one bus. We would sit in one bus, we would drive, and Adi would look at the locations and say, 'Stop. This looks beautiful. Let's go film'. We used to take Kajol behind a tree and make her wear a saree, and Shah Rukh would change anywhere and then come and shoot. There was no scout; we didn't have enough money to do it back then. Everyone held equipment and walked up, as if you had to shoot on a mountain top. Shah Rukh was holding equipment, and Kajol was too; literally, everyone was a team. There was no additional help, support. Today, everyone is so spoilt.' He went on to explain how today, if you go into an actor's vanity van, there are eight people present there. He said, "Earlier, there was no publicist, management. A leading lady and her parent, that's it. I remember when Kajol was there, her hair and makeup person did not get a visa. I was brushing her hair on set, and her mother was doing her makeup. We didn't have a hair and makeup person for her. So it was like crazy." He further added that it was fun making movies earlier, as there was camaraderie. However, Karan feels that now everything is too structured and boring. About Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge Helmed by Aditya Chopra and produced by Yash Chopra, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge was released in 1995 and became a cultural phenomenon. The film featured Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol in lead roles, along with Amrish Puri, Anupam Kher and others in key roles. The film is remembered for its dialogues, iconic songs, and Shah Rukh-Kajol's chemistry. Karan Johar-backed Sarzameen has been released on JioHotstar. Helmed by Boman Irani's son Kayoze Irani, the film stars Prithviraj Sukumaran, Kajol and Ibrahim Ali Khan in lead roles. The film opened to mixed-to-negative reviews from critics. Karan is also awaiting the release of his next production, Dhadak 2. Helmed by Shazia Iqbal, the film stars Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri in lead roles. The film is scheduled to hit theatres on 1 August 2025.

‘Twinkle Khanna couldn't carry a movie on her shoulders, she was not right for Mela': Suneel Darshan had ‘no choice' but to give in to Aamir Khan's demands
Twinkle Khanna has often admitted that she wasn't cut out for acting, and that she delivered a poor performance in the few films that she did in the 1990s. Among the most ridiculed of them is Mela, starring Aamir Khan. The movie was designed as a launch vehicle of sorts for Aamir's brother, Faisal. It flopped at the box office, ending Faisal's career, and nudging Twinkle to end hers as well. She married Akshay Kumar shortly afterwards, and turned to writing. She now makes acidic remarks about her career as a Bollywood actor. Suneel Darshan, who produced Mela, hasn't taken kindly to her comments. In an interview with Vickey Lalwani, he said that casting Twinkle in the film was a mistake, and that it required a more seasoned star instead. Mela was directed by Suneel's brother, Dharmesh Darshan. He said, 'The original story of Mela was written be me. The title was mine. They went ahead and made the movie. They cast Twinkle Khanna in the movie, which was a miscasting. The movie needed a Karisma Kapoor, and unfortunately, she was not cast in the film. You needed a girl who could carry the movie on her shoulders. I felt that she was not right for the movie.' Also read – 'Akshay Kumar's wife came to know of a relationship with Priyanka Chopra, it was unethical of him to quit film': Suneel Darshan Suneel said that changes were made to the original story that he'd written, and that Aamir needed to take his permission before enforcing certain changes. The most important change, he said, was introducing the character that was played by Faisal. He wasn't a part of the original story. 'He added the brother's character. Otherwise, everything else was mine. At a later point, Aamir realised that they needed some permissions and consent. He got through to me, and I had no choice but to agree.' In an interview with Bollywood Hungama earlier this year, Dharmesh Darshan was asked if Aishwarya Rai was the first choice for Mela. He said, 'She was. She was also my first choice for the role of Memsaab in Raja Hindustani (1996). My heart was on her. But she urgently had to go for Miss World. I didn't want to take any chances as I wanted an actress who could devote her full time to the film and Bollywood. It was her sheer grace that she didn't hold it in her heart.'

Whatever films I have done should be banned and (no one should watch) it. Most of the time, I pretend I have Alzheimer's and I don't remember my film career and it makes me happy that ways.' The film Mela had major ripple effects. Not only did it end Twinkle and Faisal's careers, it also caused a rift between Suneel and Dharmesh, which hasn't been repaired to this day. Speaking about their falling out, Suneel admitted that their parents tried to patch things up, but that they have all realised that some things are best left alone. 'Some things don't work out. People have their own thinking, and approach, and attitude. It's best to accept and move on, instead of… My parents were always hopeful that the brothers would be together, but it was not destined to happen,' he said.
