Sultan story leaked

There is a lot of buzz around Salman Khan's next Eid release - Sultan. Though the leading ladies opposite Salman are yet to be announced, we exclusively told you details about the plot of the film. The Ali Abbas Zafar film will see the Bajrangi Bhaijaan actor playing a wrestler. While we had earlier reported that the actor will play a father, we also heard that in the climax of this film, Salman would throw a fight in which he would be fighting his own son! Which means that Salman will either win or lose the most important match in the movie against his son! The Hero producer won’t be shown as an aged father-wrestler in Sultan, instead his character will grow older as the film would progress and lead up to the moment in the climax where he wrestles his onscreen son! The film would show Salman age as it would progress.

Sooraj breaks silence on Jiah Khan

Two years ago, Jiah Khan reportedly committed suicide, while there have been a lot of debates if it was a suicide or murder, Aditya Pancholi's son - Sooraj Pancholi was a part of this controversy since the Hero actor was then seeing Jiah. Though the actor had never spoken about his late girlfriend in the past, he has finally come out in the open and spoken about Jiah and his loss. The Hero actor said, “It was in nobody’s control. People didn’t realise that I had lost someone. I lost my girlfriend (Jiah) who I was seeing for the past few months and I was really upset. But I think it was destiny and it was written in book of life. People ask me what I have learnt from it. I don’t think of it as a lesson because I have not committed any mistake. There is nothing to learn from it. It was in nobody’s control and perhaps was meant to happen.”

Jazbaa trailer

The trailer of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's comeback film - Jazbaa was released. Apart from Ash, the Sanjay Gupta film also stars Irrfan Khan, John Abraham, Shabana Azmi, Chandan Roy Sanyal and Atul Kulkarni in pivotal roles. The Bachchan bahu is back and how with the powerful trailer of her comeback film. The Piku actor impresses with his witty one-liners and dialogues. Jazbaa revolves around the story of Anuradha Verma played by Ash who has the penchant for taking over the courtroom and winning cases but things change when she fears losing her daughter if she doesn't let a criminal walk free. It would be interesting to see the drama unfold on October 9, 2015.
