Mr. India director Satish Kaushik does not want a remake or sequel: ‘There are a few films that should not be touched.’
Mr. India director Satish Kaushik has stated that he does not want a remake or sequel. The cult classic, which also starred Anil Kapoor, Sridevi, and Amrish Puri, was released in 1987. The Shekhar Kapur film introduced the audience to the iconic villain Mogambo and his equally popular line, as well as setting a precedent in Hindi cinema for the rarely seen superhero genre. The film has been remade in Tamil and Kannada.
Satish Kaushik, who played Calendar in the movie, has now stated that the film should not be remade or given a sequel in today’s world. The actor stated that no one other than Anil Kapoor could do justice to the role of Mr. India, aka Arun Verma, and that some things should be left alone.
According to ETimes, he said, “There are a few films that, in my opinion, should not be touched, whether for a remake or sequel. Mr. India is one of those films that, in my opinion, should not be remade because it will lose its charm. Mr. India was the result of a group of talented people working together to make a fun film. Everyone believed in the project, from Shekhar Kapur to Boney Kapoor, Javed Akhtar to special effects, action directors, and the cast and crew, including cinematographer Baba Azmi, action director Veeru Devgan, Peter Periera (special effects camera), Art Director Bijon Das Gupta, choreographer Saroj Khan, and music composers Laxmikant Pyarelal.”
“It’s such an iconic film with such a great legacy,” Satish continued, “that if it ever comes out, it can only be pulled off by Anil Kapoor, and no one else.”
Ali Abbas Zafar, a filmmaker, announced in 2020 that he would be making a film called Mr India. “It’s a completely new film, we’re just calling it Mr India,” the filmmaker clarified when asked if the film was a sequel or remake. My film is essentially about a common man battling a powerful villain, but in a cool, hip way that incorporates science and technology while remaining relevant to today’s social situation.”
Satish recently reunited with Anil for the Netflix film Thar, in which Anil’s son Harsh Varrdhan Kapoor also starred. Satish and Anil starred as cops in the Netflix western noir that premiered on May 6.

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.
