“I still can’t believe it’s been 20 years.  Hungama  (2003) is a timeless film,” was the first thing Aftab Shivdasani remarked when  Bollywood Hungama  exclusively talked to him about his much-loved comic caper, which celebrates its 20th anniversary on August 1. The actor had a long day and yet, took out time to excitedly share his memories of working on the film, which was directed by Priyadarshan and produced by Ratan Jain’s Venus Records And Tapes Pvt Ltd, his journey and a lot more. Do you remember how you bagged  Hungama ? I remember my manager got a call from Ratan ji’s office, informing me about a film with Priyan that they would like me to act in. We met in Sun-N-Sand Hotel, if my memory serves right, where I met Priyan sir, Ratan ji and Neeraj Vora for a narration. Neeraj Vora was the one who did the narration. The narration went on for nearly two hours. By the end of it, I was so confused that I took a pen and paper and started writing down the list of characters and their

Bollywood Hungama  was one of the first ones to report that  OMG Oh My God 2 , has faced issues at the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). The Examining Committee (EC), after watching the film, referred the Akshay Kumar starrer to the Revising Committee (RC) since the film had a religious angle and the former didn’t want to take any chances. On July 17, CBFC chairperson Prasoon Joshi saw the film after which a screening was held for the RC. The RC, too, developed cold feet on seeing the film. Though they agreed that the issue of sex education in the film is sensitively tackled, they were apprehensive more so after the  Adipurush  episode. Also, the brouhaha over  Oppenheimer ’s Bhagavad Gita scene further added to their fears. In both instances, questions were raised as to how the CBFC passed the scenes that have hurt religious sentiments. Bollywood Hungama , however, has learnt that the censor troubles for OMG Oh My God 2 are over. A source told  Bollywood Hungama , “The fil

Bawaal , starring Varun Dhawan and Janhvi Kapoor, released on Prime Video on July 21. Helmed by Nitesh Tiwari, the film has opened to mixed reviews. While many applauded the performances of the actors, the film was also criticized for the analogies related to Auschwitz, Hitler and World War II references.
