Producer Dinesh Vijan Reacts On Producer Naga Vamsi's Derogatory Comments On Bollywood Industry

Mumbai, January 5 - Producer Dinesh Vijan of Maddock Films has reacted to the recent comments made by Telugu producer Naga Vamsi on the Bollywood film industry. During a roundtable interaction of filmmakers, Vamsi said that while the South industry is going Pan India, Bollywood filmmakers are making films only for Juhu and Bandra in a seemingly arrogant tone. ## During Sky Force's trailer launch event, producer Dinesh Vijan was asked to react to Vamsi's derogatory remarks. The filmmaker, who has been in top form with back-to-back big successes, made a very dignified response without showing Vamsi and South industry in a bad light. ## Speaking about the same, Vijan said that since the pandemic, there are 5 Hindi films (Pathaan, Jawan, Gadar 2, Animal, and Stree 2) which has crossed 500 crore net collection which didn't exist earlier. He said that just because Bollywood filmmakers don't speak about or brag about those successes, the fact is that we have 5 huge films (since Covid-19). ## Without gunning down the entire South industry, Vijan said that there might be 1 or 2 people who speak like that but whenever he has gone to South, they (South filmmakers) have been very encouraging. He called for unity and said that we should start calling ourselves as Indian film industry. ## Meanwhile, Sky Force stars Akshay Kumar and Veer Pahariya (in his acting debut) alongside Sara Ali Khan, Nimrat Kaur and Sharad Kelkar in key roles. Directed by Sandeep Kewlani and Abhishek Anil Kapur, the film is scheduled to be released on January 24. ## #DineshVijan and #AkshayKumar on Vamsi's comment of "Bollywood sirf Bandra-Juhu ke liye movie banata hai." pic.twitter.com/YjnLDouDit— $@M (@SAMTHEBESTEST_) January 5, 2025 ## Stay tuned...

Superstar Shah Rukh Khan Gets Targeted Over A No-Harm X Post

Mumbai, December 31 - Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan has been targeted for praising Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision for the media and entertainment sector, supporting the upcoming World Audio Visual Entertainment (WAVES) 2025 summit. ## WAVES is a revolutionary step in the Indian entertainment sector and Shah Rukh Khan rightfully praised this move by PM Modi. However, many people on social media platform X objected to this no-harm post and called out the actor for tweeting in support of WAVES but not on the recent demise of the former PM Dr Manmohan Singh. ## Here is what Shah Rukh Khan posted on X - "It is with great anticipation that I look forward to WAVES - a film and entertainment world summit - to be held in our country itself. An occasion that celebrates our industry and acknowledges the role it plays in the Indian economy as well as its strength as a soft power… and above all, an occasion that champions and fosters creativity!!! @narendramodi ji".## It is with great anticipation that I look forward to WAVES - a film and entertainment world summit - to be held in our country itself.

They are calling for boycotting his films and unfollowing him on social media for this move. However, King Khan has often mentioned on different platforms that he would least bother about what people think of him on social media as it is his right to say whatever he wants to say on social media. ## Meanwhile, on the work front, Shah Rukh Khan will next be seen in director Sidharth Anand's action thriller, King which begins filming in March/April 2025.
