The trailer of the upcoming OTT film ‘Thar’, starring Anil Kapoor and Harshvarrdhan Kapoor, was released on Monday.

The film traces the journey of Siddharth, an antique dealer in a remote village in Rajasthan that has of late been witness to a series of violent killings. As the local cop Surekha Singh investigates these killings he crosses paths with Siddharth.

Talking about the film, Harshvarrdhan Kapoor shared, “The wait is almost over and we’re very excited to be handing our film over to audiences all over the world . We’ve paid attention to the little details and they have added up to create a world and a narrative that is unique. Netflix is the perfect platform for ‘Thar’ to reach audiences globally who will connect with the film.”

Anil Kapoor spoke about working with his son again after ‘AK Vs AK’, “I love working with young and new talent and with ‘Thar’ bringing onboard young actors and filmmakers it gives me a completely different perspective on films.”

“Returning to Netflix after ‘AK vs AK’ and the audiences across the globe it traveled to, I can’t wait for Thar to premiere on the streaming service and for it to reach people across continents since it’s a unique story that audiences anywhere will enjoy,” he added.

The film also stars veteran actor Satish Kaushik, who has delivered many successful films with Anil Kapoor in the 1980s and 1990s, and ‘Dangal’ star Fatima Sana Shaikh and ‘Sacred Games’ actor Jeetendra Joshi.

Sharing his thoughts on the film, Satish said, “I’m thrilled to be a part of this project and to get the chance to work with Anil ji and the rest of the cast and crew. When I was offered this character, I thought it would be a fantastic opportunity to play the part because it is something I had not done before in my acting career.”

For Fatima, it was an opportunity to try something completely different, as she said, ” I’ve got the opportunity to work on a very distinct character that I haven’t played in the past.”

She further said, “Working with Raj Singh Chaudhary, Harshvarrdhan, Anil sir, Satish sir and Jitendra Joshi was lovely. As always, I am excited to collaborate with Netflix again and am looking forward to how the audiences react to this film and to my character.”

Director Raj Singh Chaudhary calls the film, “a unique and engaging genre” that he’s “extremely excited to present to the audience”.

He said, “This film has taken many years to come into fruition and has been an enthralling experience from beginning to end. Working with such powerhouse performers and team has been a wonderful journey for me and I am looking forward to this film reaching audiences globally through Netflix.”

The film is set to premiere on Netflix on May 6.

BB 20: Yung DSA opens up on growing up amid parents’ financial struggles

Published

on

Mumbai : Rapper and musician Yung DSA opened up about his childhood. He recalled a difficult phase when financial problems would often lead to fights between his parents and how those experiences made him accustomed to living away from his family.

During a conversation inside the Bigg Boss season 20 house, Yung DSA was asked by Arishfa Kham as to whom he was missing the most at the moment. While he mentioned his close friend Samiksha, he said that being away from his parents was something he had become used to from a young age.

“I mean, I am used to staying away from parents, to be honest. When I was a kid, my mom used to go to Solapur. My grandparents used to live there, so we used to go there to get things,” he recalled.

He then opened up about the financial difficulties his family faced during his childhood and how they affected his parents’ relationship.

“My parents used to fight a lot because of financial issues. So, my dad and mom used to work and my brother and I used to live alone. So, I am used to it,” Yung DSA said.

He said that frequent travel and work-related commitments later further accustomed him to staying away from home.

“I used to travel a lot. So, I have moved away and stayed away from home a lot,” he added.

Despite spending considerable time away from his family, Yung DSA stressed that the distance has not affected their bond. “My family and I are very much connected. But I’m used to living without them,” he said.

The rapper during the family messages task inside the Bigg Boss house was seen getting extremely emotional upon listening to his mother, father and brother’s voice.

Mumbai : Singer Qazi Touqeer opened up about his bond with fellow singer Arijit Singh.

He described the latter as a private person who, despite his reserved nature, shares a similar sense of craziness with him.

Talking about Arijit to Arishfa Khan and Uditi Singh in Bigg Boss Season 20, Qazi said the singer has a different level of madness and is someone who keeps pushing himself to explore more.

“When Arijit and I sit together, Arijit has pain in the stomach laughing. My level is different from his. He also does crazy things. He is the father of crazy things. But he is a private person. He only opens up with his close people. He is like me,” Qazi said.

Qazi went on to describe how Arijit’s curiosity and creative approach continue to push him further. “He keeps increasing his level of craziness. He digs the well so much. He finds the fun part, digs in more. But that’s how it should be,” he said.

Praising Arijit’s personality, Qazi added, “He is crazy. He is beautiful. It should not end. He is amazing. He is a champ. He has the attitude of a champion.”

Drawing a parallel between himself and Arijit, Qazi said the two share a similar personality despite their different levels of expression. “But we both are the same. He and me, we both are the same,” he said.

For the uninitiated, Qazi and Arijit have both carved their own spaces in the Indian music industry, with Qazi gaining popularity after winning the first season of the singing reality show Fame Gurukul. Arijit went on to become one of the most prominent playback singers of contemporary Hindi cinema.
