Mani Ratnam reveals when he will work with Shah Rukh Khan: ‘I’ll go and ask him when…’
Shah Rukh Khan is a star that director Mani Ratnam claims he encounters frequently, but working with him again would require the perfect material. They previously collaborated on Dil Se. Along with Shah Rukh, it also starred Manisha Koirala and Preity Zinta.
The movie, which Mani Ratnam co-produced with the directors Ram Gopal Varma and Shekhar Kapur, was released in 1998. The film, which was made against the backdrop of the Assamese insurgency, won multiple accolades, including two National Film Awards and six Filmfare Awards. Additionally, it received praise at international film festivals and enjoyed a profitable run in theatres.
When asked if he and Shah Rukh might work with again, Mani Ratnam responded, “You should ask Shah Rukh. When I have a script ready for him, I can approach him. Thus, everything is a result of a script. We simply met at a gathering, that’s all. Like I’m saying, a script’s idea is what drives it. I’ll go and question Shah Rukh once you have a sense of who will be correct.
Ponniyin Selvan: I, directed by Mani Ratnam and starring Aishwarya Rai and based on the Tamil novel by author Kalki Krishnamurthy, is about to hit theatres. The same-named novel was published as a series in the 1950s. Jayam Ravi, Vikram, Karthi, Trisha Krishnan, and Sobhita Dhulipala are also featured in the movie. On September 30, the AR Rahman musical will be launched in theatres in the following languages: Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada.
Ponniyin Selvan: I is the second time Aishwarya has worked with Tamil actor Vikram. In their 2010 critically praised film Raavan, which also starred Abhishek Bachchan, they collaborated. Aishwarya began her acting career in Mani Ratnam’s Iruvar in 1997. She later appeared in Guru (2007) and Raavan.

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.
