Alia Bhatt is one of the rare actresses to have a great track record. Her last flop was released more than 5 years ago, that is, before the pandemic – Kalank (2019). All was going well until Jigra came and affected her box office standing. Yet, the trade experts are clear that Alia Bhatt’s track record is completely safe. Trade veteran Taran Adarsh remarked, “Whatever Jigra has collected is because of Alia Bhatt.” Vishek Chauhan, owner of Roopbani Cinema in Purnia, Bihar said, “I don’t think it affects her.

Shah Rukh Khan recently attended the Locarno Film Festival, where he appeared on the Locarno Meets podcast. During the conversation, he discussed his desire to work on comedy films and reflected on why his sense of humor isn't always well received. He said, “I'll be honest, I think I have an innate sense of humor, and I can make people laugh, but it's very inappropriate times also. So I try to control myself, I'm told by my team all the time, people don't understand your humor.” In the conversation, Shah Rukh Khan expressed his interest in exploring different film genres.

Recalling the experience during an interview with Galatta Plus, Samantha Ruth Prabhu shared the incident, saying, “I had a concussion and I forgot the names after that. I completely blanked out.
