    Sushant Singh Rajput left a void in people’s lives who genuinely loved him for his aura. Almost 2 years have passed and his fans are remembering him for his wisdom and love that he had for his fans. They are keeping their favourite star alive through their Instagram edits, his old interviews, and movies.  
    Sushant’s death did start many important conversations in Bollywood and many aspiring actors started to raise their voices against the injustice in the industry. Sushant has always been an important anchor for many youngsters who dare to dream big and make it big in Bollywood, without any strings or a godfather.

    On his birthday today, we stumbled upon this throwback interview wherein he talked about how he would make his own movies if he doesn’t get films and even would work in a canteen in Film City as he loved being close to the cinematic world. 
    In a 2015 interview with Rediff.com, Sushant had opened up about shifting from TV to Bollywood and said, “When I quit television, people told me, you are doing a filmmaking course but what if you don’t get a film? I said, ‘I will make my own films’. I had decided that if that happens, I will start a canteen in Film City and I will buy a camera and make my own short film about the canteen and feature in it too. And I know I would be as excited about that as I am right now.”

    Elaborating on his decision, Sushant added, “That was not plan B; that was to spend time in Film City because I love Film City. It’s the only place in Mumbai where everybody is shooting something. It’s because of the place it is that I thought of opening a canteen there. I can eat and I can enjoy watching films and I can actually shoot my short film, so that was the place to be.”

    He became a household name for his role in Ekta Kapoor's TV show Pavitra Rishta. In an industry dominated by star kids, Sushant made his mark with movies like MS Dhoni: The Untold Story, Kai Po Che, and Chhichhore in a very short span of his career. 
    On the work front, he was last seen in Dil Bechara.

    Recently, there were reports that Akshay Kumar was paid a whopping Rs 135 crore for his upcoming thriller Cinderella, and there were also reports that he got paid the same amount for his collaboration with Tiger Shroff in a film reportedly titled Bade Miyan Chote Miyan.  
    While Akshay has charged upfront for the two films, for relatively smaller production houses and film, he opts for a hybrid model wherein he charges a minimum amount as acting fees and then takes 40 to 50 per cent share in profit.

    Salman Khan, on the other hand, was the first Bollywood star to charge Rs 100 crore for a film in 2016 for Sultan. He was later paid a huge Rs 130 crore for acting in the 2017 blockbuster Tiger Zinda Hai.  

    These amounts were the upfront fee that he charged but what he earned based on the profit-sharing deal with Yash Raj Films.  
    Since he was the producer for Bharat and Dabangg 3, he collected the films’ satellite and digital revenue. For both the films, he earned Rs 120 crore.  
    According to a Pinkvilla report, Salman Khan has three models to charge money for a film. For YRF, he gets into the profit-sharing mode, taking digital and satellite revenue along with profit-sharing for his home productions and taking digital and satellite share as fees for other production houses.  
    It has been speculated that if the upcoming Tiger 3, which is produced by YRF, turns out to be a huge hit, Salman will be the highest-paid star of the industry.

    As for Shah Rukh Khan and Aamir Khan, both of them have stopped charging the upfront fee for a film for years now. The two superstars have been opting for the profit-sharing model for almost a decade now.  

    While Shah Rukh Khan charges 60 per cent for profit, Aamir takes home a huge 75 per cent of the profit. This way, their exact per film fee varies.  
    Hrithik Roshan too opts for a similar profit-sharing model like SRK and Aamir. However, for a couple of films, he has also opted for a hybrid model i.e charging an upfront fee and taking some share in profit. For Super 30 and War, Hrithik collected 50 to 55 per cent of the profit.  
    Ajay Devgn’s mode of fees changes from film to film. Sometimes, he goes for profit sharing, other times it is the upfront fee and even the hybrid model. So, it is difficult to assess his exact acting fee.  
    Reportedly, for his digital debut Rudra, Ajay has earned in three digits. Usually, he charges Rs 40 to 50 crore for a film and also takes a 50 per cent share in the profit.

    For the younger lot of actors, Ranbir Kapoor is the highest paid with Rs 65 to 70 crore he charged for Animal. 

    Tiger was charging Rs 25 to 30 crore per film but for Ganapath he got paid between Rs 35 to 40 crore. And he will now be getting Rs 50 crore for Bade Miyan Chote Miyan with Akshay Kumar. 
    Ranveer Singh has charged Rs 50 crore for Rohit Shetty’s Cirkus and Shankar’s Anniyan remake. 
    Varun Dhawan’s fee is Rs 35 crore but may soon go for the profit-sharing model. John Abraham was paid Rs 7 crore for 2018 hit Satyameva Jayate, for its 2021 sequel, the actor earned Rs 21 crore.

    Shahid Kapoor increased his fee after the success of Kabir Singh and charged Rs 31 crore for Jersey. 

    Here’s the full list below (on an upfront fee basis): 
    1.     Akshay Kumar - Rs 135 crore
    2.     Ranbir Kapoor - Rs 70 crore
    3.     Ranveer Singh - Rs 50 crore
    4.     Tiger Shroff - Rs 50 crore
    5.     Varun Dhawan - Rs 35 crore
    6.     Shahid Kapoor - Rs 31 crore 
    7.     John Abraham - Rs 21 crore
    On profit sharing basis: 
    1.     Aamir Khan - 75 per cent
    2.     Salman Khan - 70 per cent
    3.     Shah Rukh Khan - 60 per cent
    4.     Hrithik Roshan - 50-55 per cent
    With huge films like Tiger 3, Pathan, Laal Singh Chaddha expected to break the box office, there are high chances that one among SRK, Salman & Aamir may turn out to be the highest-paid actor by the end of 2022.

    Twilight stars Robert Pattinson & Kristen Stewart, who played the lead roles of Edward and Bella respectively, shared sensational onscreen chemistry in the film series which made fans fall in love with both of them. Initially, both of them were very shy but had to indulge in a steamy kiss for the 'Twilight' audition during which Pattison even fell off the bed. Yes, you read that right! 
    View this post on Instagram
    Twilight director Catherine Hardwicke revealed the same on The Big Hit Show (podcast) and spoke about how the audition got her worried as it involved a hot kissing scene.  

    While talking about Robert and Kristen's audition, she said, "I could tell they had a lot of chemistry, and I’m like, ‘Oh my God.’ I thought, Kristen was 17. I don’t want to get in some illegal things. So I remember I told Rob, ‘By the way, Kristen is 17. In our country, it’s illegal to have a sexual… “And he’s like, “Oh, OK, whatever'."

    "Rob and Kristen auditioned on my bed, the k*ssing scene, Rob was so into it he fell off the bed. I’m like, “Dude, calm down.” And I’m in there filming with my little video camera, whatever. And at the end [of the audition] Kristen was like, “It has to be Rob,” Hardwicke further shared on the podcast.

    For the unversed, Robert and Kristen fell for each other while working on the Twilight series. Reportedly, they dated each other for nearly four years, from 2009 to 2012. According to various reports, the duo parted ways after Kristen cheated on her co-star with Rupert Sanders, the director of Snow White and the Huntsman.

    CVC Capital is said to have recruited a few agencies to come up with a suitable name for the Ahmedabad franchise ahead of the Indian Premier League's 2022 season (IPL). The Ahmedabad franchise has also requested that the agencies adopt a name that reflects Gujarat's history. The challenge of coming up with a suitable name for the Ahmedabad franchise has been assigned to an agency called Vector.

    Although new companies and franchises hire agencies all over the world to come up with names that are catchy, marketable and well in sync with the organisations’ core values, the Ahmedabad franchise was heavily trolled for not being able to do it without spending extra money.
    As soon as the news went online, the fans of the Indian Premier League started trolling the unnamed squad and asked them to take tips from the Lucknow franchise who are making an excellent marketing campaign out of their process of name-revealing and the overall brand awareness:
    Lucknow walo se sikho
    Free me kam bhi ho jayega

    Lucknow franchise already merged in well with twitter activity and other things, Ahemdabad franchise seems to be crumpled down already due to the issues BCCI created
    — Tejas Baranwal (@BaranwalTejas) January 21, 2022

    Lucknow clear,
    Fans ke suggestions pe name rakhenge
    — Substitute Cricketer (@neutralumpire7) January 21, 2022
    Why to hire an agency, if you can ask the team name on twitter, just like how lucknow is doing encouraging fans on social media to give their opinion on what should be the team name that's how you increase fan engagement not by just paying a ransom amount to an agency. #IPL

    The Lucknow franchise has had a huge head-start in terms of engaging with fans and cricket enthusiasts from all over the world. Despite not officially announcing their name, they have been regular in talking about cricket, both international and domestic and they have been running campaigns about revealing their name in bits and pieces.

    As far as the Ahmedabad team is concerned, their social media presence is negligible and there’s little to no interaction with the fans so far. The only development about the franchise that is known to the world is that they have bought Hardik Pandya to be their captain and reinforced the core of the team with all-rounder Rashid Khan and opening batter Shubman Gill.
    Former Indian left-arm seamer Ashish Nehra is also expected to be named as the franchise's head coach. Nehra has also appeared in 88 IPL matches, taking 106 wickets at an average of 18.0. Vikram Solanki, a former England batter, could be named the franchise's Director of Cricket Operations. Despite the fact that Solanki represented England, he is of Indian descent.
    With the Motera stadium, which is the world’s biggest cricket ground, being established in Ahmedabad, the city and the new team are expected to be massive crowd-pullers and by signing some of the most charismatic players in the league, they have finally started to create some buzz around themselves.

    The fallout between BCCI president Sourav Ganguly and Virat Kohli became apparent when the latter publicly contradicted the former's claims during an explosive press conference.
    After Kohli’s emotional outburst before boarding the flight to South Africa, there were reports that the BCCI was not happy and wanted to conduct a press conference of their own to present their side of the story but, for some reason, eventually decided against it.

    Back then, the BCCI chief had told the media that the board would deal with the situation internally and would not say anything in public.

    Since then many things have changed. Kohli has given up Test captaincy citing personal reasons. But not many people believe his reasoning and feel that his resignation was a result of everything that he went through in the last one year.
    © Reuters
    Although Ganguly has refrained from saying anything in public, many fans blame him and secretary Jay Shah for pushing Kohli into the corner so much so that he was left with no choice but to resign.

    The relationship between Kohli and Ganguly had hit an all-time low after the 33-year-old cricketer called out his lies during that pre-departure press conference. The former skipper had refuted Ganguly’s comment where he had claimed that he had personally asked him not to give up T20 captaincy.
    © Reuters
    According to a report published in India Ahead News, Ganguly was so pissed with the former Test skipper that he wanted to issue him a show cause notice, demanding an explanation for his public rebuttal of the BCCI hierarchy.

    “And the board president was all for issuing a show cause notice to Kohli,” a BCCI source was quoted as saying by India Ahead News.

    The same report further states that Ganguly had even prepared an initial draft of the letter that he wanted to send to the then Test skipper but decided against it on the advice of the other BCCI members, who felt that sending such a notice would hamper team’s atmosphere ahead of an important Test series.

    This man with a bunch of clowns destroyed Indian cricket at its peak https://t.co/dYUc7oP9th
    — Siddharth_1290 (@urstrulysid_) January 20, 2022Greg Chappell is looking real nice, right about now. SACK THIS MAN, JAY SHAH AND CHETAN SHARMA BEFORE OCTOBER. They'll destroy Indian cricket.
    We stand with you, Virat. #ShameOnBCCI https://t.co/jRfMPgOjqZ
    — Ishika (@IshikaMullick) January 20, 2022So, this is the reason for stepping down from Test captaincy. Well done @SGanguly99 !! He doesn't deserve this clownery show. https://t.co/AN7uJJjoJa
    — Neal Caffrey (@AI_freak) January 20, 2022Would have been better if he had gone ahead with this. Openly sacked Virat. Abhi toh choro ki tarah karwa diya. https://t.co/E4H89uQGSw
    — The Friendly Neighborhood Expert (@madaddie24) January 20, 2022Ganguly and shah destroying indian cricket https://t.co/igXD5Q2ugx
    — Karan Kumar Jena (@karan_jena09) January 20, 2022So, @imVkohli ‘s road to becoming the greatest test captain ever was cut short by these politics.
    Well played @BCCI https://t.co/8zPN0z5woL
    — BeingMyself (@BeingMy26636499) January 20, 2022This news has led to a huge outrage against the BCCI on social media, with fans voicing strong opinions against the ‘Prince of Kolkata’ and blaming him for destroying Indian cricket.
    Idk what Chappell did to him, but if according to Ganguly, Chappell destroyed Team India back then, than you’re no better than him! https://t.co/U6deWMcV6n
    — Dr. Palak Singh (@thatsmePalak) January 20, 2022
    Some agitated fans even likened Ganguly’s actions with that of former India head coach Gregg Chappell, whose stint is often described by many as black day of Indian cricket.
    Kohli is India’s most successful red-ball skipper ever as he guided the country to 40 Test wins in just 68 tries. That's why it was sad that the tenure of the country’s greatest leader ended in such an unfortunate manner. He definitely didn't deserve a treatment like this.

    There is a new twist in the tale of Allu Arjun’s 2020 Telugu blockbuster Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo’s dubbed Hindi release in theatres. 
    Ever since the theatrical release of the Allu Arjun starrer was announced, the reports had stated that makers of its Hindi remake Shehzada starring Kartik Aaryan aren’t happy about it and rightly so. 
    In fact, Paresh Rawal, who plays an important role in the Hindi remake had expressed shock over the theatrical release of Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo in Hindi. 
    Now, a report in ETimes has claimed that Allu Arjun’s father Allu Aravind, the producer of Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo, has arrived in Mumbai to talk to the producer Manish Shah of Goldmines Telefilms, who owns the rights to the Hindi version of the Telugu film, to stop the theatrical release of AVPL. 
    © Instagram/Kartik Aaryan
    The reason Allu Aravind is reportedly stopping Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo to release theatrically in Hindi is that he is also the co-producer of the Hindi remake Shehzada. 

    A source told the website, “The Kartik Aaryan starrer Shehzada (with Kriti Sanon opposite him) is the official Hindi remake of Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo, which Allu Aravind is co-producing with Bhushan Kumar and Aman Gill. Allu Aravind would ideally like 'Shehzada' to be the only Hindi version of Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo.” 
    The source further added, “Allu Aravind had arrived in Mumbai yesterday with his team and the meetings with Shah went on for two days. We shall soon know, January 26 is not far away.” 
    © Instagram/Kartik Aaryan
    There were also reports that Kartik had met Manish Shah to try and persuade him to not release the Hindi dubbed version of the film. When asked about it, Shah told ETimes, “Kartik has not met me but they are feeling that the release of Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo will affect the business of Shehzada. So we are now looking at the best way forward to ensure that Shehzada is not affected.”  

    Earlier, Manish Shah had confirmed that he will release the Hindi dubbed version on January 26 and doesn’t believe it will affect Shehzada. But now, he has changed his stance, which means we may soon get to hear the official announcement of Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo theatrical release being deferred.

    A source had informed Pinkvilla, “From all angles, there has been tremendous pressure to not let Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo Hindi version get released. There’s a high possibility that the release of the Hindi dubbed version of Allu Arjun’s Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo will be stalled to make way for Kartik’s Shehzada. The final decision will likely be taken by tomorrow evening.”
