Ghajini Didn’t Initially Choose Aamir Khan: The reason why Ghajini, which went on to become one of the year’s biggest hits, is still one of the most talked-about Bollywood movies is because of its captivating story and outstanding cast. Still, without Aamir Khan, what would it be like? It turns out that AR Murugadoss had other ideas for the Hindi version of the movie and did not initially choose Aamir Khan. He had, however, in mind casting a “short-tempered” superstar. Who can you guess?
Who Was Director AR Murugadoss’s First Choice for Ghajini, If Not Aamir Khan?
In case you were wondering, the director’s initial pick for Ghajini was none other than Salman Khan. But Aamir Khan was recommended by actor Pradeep Rawat, who portrayed the movie’s antagonist. Salman Khan is a favourite of Murugadoss, but Pradeep told Siddharth Kannan that he didn’t believe Salman would be the best option. He stated, “I thought in my mind ‘Salman is short-tempered and Murugdoss doesn’t speak in Hindi or English.’” Back then, he didn’t even have a personality.”
The actor went on to say, “I felt that Aamir would be a good fit for the part since he has a calm demeanour and treats everyone with respect. I have not witnessed Aamir yell or scream at anyone in the last twenty-five years. He has never used foul words or treated someone disrespectfully. Therefore, I reasoned that Salman’s character would make things too difficult or complicated.”
Additional Information About Ghajini
Aamir Khan and Asin, who won the Filmfare Best Debut Female Award, play the lead roles in Ghajini. The film centres on the romance between the two characters; nevertheless, a regrettable event resulted in the latter’s death, upending Aamir’s character’s life and compelling him to get retribution.

Food blogger attacked by Swara Bhasker for boasting about being a vegetarian on Twitter: “Smug self-righteousness”

In response to food blogger Nalini Unagar’s “proud to be a vegetarian” tweet, actor Swara Bhasker attacked Unagar. On Sunday, Nalini posted a photo of her lunch at X. It included a paneer dish and fried rice.
What was said by the food blogger?
Nalini shared the picture and added, “I’m happy to be a vegetarian. There are no more tears, cruelty, or guilt on my platter.”
This is Swara’s response.
In response, Swara penned, “To be honest… I find vegetarians’ arrogant self-righteousness to be incomprehensible. Denying the calf its mother’s milk, forcing cows to become pregnant, ripping them from their calves, and taking their milk are the main components of your diet.”
Furthermore, she said, “You eat root vegetables? That eliminates the entire plant! Just because it’s Bakr Eid, don’t stress about virtue signalling (folded hands emojis). June 16–17 is when Bakr Eid, or Eid al-Adha, is observed.
Swara just had her Eid celebration.
A few months after celebrating Eid al-Fitr, Swara posted a tweet. She celebrated the occasion with her daughter Raabiyaa and spouse Fahad Ahmad. On her Instagram Stories, Swara posted snippets of her Eid festivities. Swara and Raabiyaa were shown in one of the stories pointing at the Eid ka Chaand. Another photo shows Swara, her daughter, and Fahad posing as a family. Fahad is Muslim, but Swara is Hindu.
When Swara discussed the cultures of her and Fahad
Swara performed a chhathi puja for Raabiyaa the previous year. She revealed tidbits from the festivities and reported discovering shared cultural experiences with Fahad’s family. “The child is a mish mash of the mish mash we are,” Swara had wrote. She therefore has 62.5% UP, 12.5% Bihar, and 25% Andhra. Furthermore, I support representation and am always up for a celebration! Furthermore, since our wedding, we’ve learned that Muslims and Hindus in North India have common cultural customs, which strengthens my conviction that, despite our variety, love and joy will always find a language.”
“Chhathhi, or the sixth day of a child’s birth, is celebrated throughout UP Bihar. Mom and kid dress in the colour of turmeric or haldi, and aunts or bua put kaajal on the child and parents to protect them from ‘nazar,’ or the evil eye! I’m performing a well-known “sohar”—celebration songs for new babies. Although sohars are often used to celebrate newborn boys, I customised it for a newborn girl—oh! And although sisters and aunts sing the sohars, mothers don’t, so I thought, “Why not?” Dholak aa gaya hai! Thank you to @manisha2967 for the Chhathhi lesson and the beautiful singing I was able to do, and to Bhanu ji @partapsinghb11 for the dholak that helped make my singing pleasant.
