Earlier this year, when Bollywood action hit "Pathaan" made waves at the North American box office, there was a brief firestorm of internet backlash against a description of star Shah Rukh Khan as "India's Tom Cruise." The comparison was centered around how both actors had returned to the big screen after four years with a blockbuster that breathed life back into an ailing box office: "Top Gun: Maverick" in Cruise's case, and "Pathaan" in Khan's. But fans of Shah Rukh Khan took issue with the comparison. Some quipped that, if anything, Tom Cruise is "America's Shah Rukh Khan." Others took the position that "Shah Rukh Khan is Shah Rukh Khan," and that he transcends comparison to any other actor.
It's true that it's hard to name an American actor comparable to Srk, especially in a time when movie stars are on the decline. And perhaps that's why this past...

Mumbai, Aug 10 (Ians) Bollywood actor and humanitarian Sonu Sood helped a 65-year-old man from Bihar to help him clear his debts.
The man named Khilanand Jha travelled all the way to Mumbai only to meet Sonu, whom he fondly refers to as ‘Gareebo Ka Masiha’ or the Messiah of the Poor.
Jha’s story, riddled with struggles and financial burdens, touched Sonu’s heart, prompting him to lend him a helping hand.
For the unversed, Jha’s wife, Minoti Paswan, passed away earlier this year after a paralytic stroke, leaving him with a debt of Rs 12 lakh for her medical expenses. With creditors demanding the clearance of payment, he sought Sonu’s assistance after hearing about his efforts to help the less fortunate during the pandemic.
Jha, accompanied by his son, recently met Sonu at his office.
The actor empathised with the elderly man’s situation and readily agreed to offer him support.

Season 2 of young adult romance “Heartstopper” has arrived on Netflix, accompanied by a soundtrack filled with pop and rock. Adapted from Alice Oseman’s graphic novels, the new season continues the cute, queer, colorful and cartoon-embellished story.
Now that they are boyfriends, Nick Nelson (Kit Connor) and Charlie Spring (Joe Locke) face the nuanced challenges of Nick’s decision to come out to his family and friends. Elle Argent (Yasmin Finney) and Tao Xu (William Gao) fight their own butterflies. Tara Jones (Corinna Brown) and Darcy Olsson (Kizzy Edgell) are back with their relationship road bumps — and let’s not forget our favorite bookworm, Isaac Henderson (Tobie Donovan).
The first episode kicks off on a solid note with Maggie Rogers’ “Shatter” and Fitz and the Tantrums’ “Out of My League.” The 1975’s “The Sound” uplifts episode three after a stressful round of testing for the Year 11 students. Taylor Swift’s...

Of course Ben Wheatley had a monster movie in him.
Before he directed "Meg 2: The Trench," Jason Statham's second "giant prehistoric shark threatens the world" outing, Wheatley proved himself capable of floating between genres with a remarkable ease. Nasty, head-splitting horror movies like "Kill List." Pitch-black comedies like "Sightseers." Impossible literary adaptations like "High-Rise." Slick streaming remakes like "Rebecca." And then there are his memorable episodes of "Doctor Who." It was only a matter of time before he made a massive studio-funded B-movie (a term used here with love) where one of the great modern action heroes goes mano-a-sharko with a beast big enough to devour a boat in a single bite. To call this the natural evolution of one of the most interesting modern filmographies would be an understatement.

Find yourself a more interesting career path than director Ben Wheatley's, who's set to release "Meg 2: The Trench" this week. After cutting his teeth on various television shows throughout the aughts (including "Doctor Who"), Wheatley broke out among film circles with 2015's "High-Rise." The Tom Hiddleston-starring satire, perhaps best described as "'Snowpiercer' in a skyscraper," gave us our first real look at the filmmaker's distinct sensibilities when allowed the freedom to truly wild out. His follow-up, "Free Fire," gathered several of the most charismatic actors around for a single-location extended shootout that seemed to provide Wheatley with a blank check to do whatever he wanted next. That turned out to be ... the sequel to Alicia Vikander's "Tomb Raider," of all things.

Film production was up a welcome 27 to almost £2Bn but high-end TV (Hetv) once again provided the lion’s share (£4.3Bn), as shows like Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, Slow Horses and Top Boy drove up spend. Inwards investment – a fancy way of saying ‘money from overseas’ – accounted for 88 of that total, but Hetv spend was actually down 3 year-on-year. As we all know, U.

Shekhar Ravjiani, one of the composers of Bollywood megahit “Pathaan,” has launched Indie record label Garuudaa Musiic.
The label is envisioned as a creative platform through which Ravjiani composes, sings and collaborates with new talent while also showcasing the musician’s own output.
The idea for the label was born during lockdown when Ravjiani had a chance to take a break from the world of film music and reconnect with a creative process that took him back to his early days as a musician.
Ravjiani said: ”Garuudaa Musiic is a world where one can channel the inner child and create music fearlessly in its purest form.

If.com.au is on holiday hiatus, resuming January 6, 2020.
For all our e-newsletter subscribers, throughout the break we’ll send newsletters with what we thought were our best and most pertinent stories of 2019.
It’s been our pleasure to report this year on a busy sector, and we look forward to seeing how key issues play out in the year to come.
Notably, after years of policy stasis, the screen industry has promise of change in 2020.
The Federal Government has committed to a staged process of media regulation reform, and in its sights is whether local content requirements should be imposed on Svod services like Netflix, Amazon and Stan.
As part of this, Screen Australia and Acma will release an options paper in early 2020 that will look at how to best support Australian stories in a modern, multi-platform environment.
The government announcement comes on the heels of Disney+ and AppleTV+ launching in the Australian market.

Netflix is bringing back Peaky Blinders for a fifth season and we’ve got a fantastic new trailer to share with you for it that is sure to get the fans pumped up for what this next season will entail. In the next chapter of the story, the Shelbys grapple with the 1929 stock market crash, and Tommy “confronts new threats to his power from younger family members and fascist rivals.”
It’s been two freakin’ years since Peaky Blinders Season 4 was released on Netflix and I’m so happy that we’ve got six more episodes coming our way soon! It’s been promised by series creator Steven Knight that this season will be filled with “shocks and surprises.”
