Now, we have confirmation on the leading man for Bosco's film. Aditya Seal, who was last seen in Student of the Year 2, will now be seen in a new avatar, as confirmed by the director. 

Director Bosco Leslie Martis shares, "Aditya is a multi-talented artiste, who is a skilled dancer, actor and action performer. His potential has not been fully tapped into yet. He fits the leading character's shoes perfectly, and his personality will blend well with that of this character. We are finalising the screenplay and should start the pre-production work by October. We plan to roll by early 2020." 

Shariq Patel, CEO, Zee Studios added, “We are happy to have a young, talented performer like Aditya on board! It’s a never-seen-before genre that we are bringing to Indian audiences especially targeted at kids, pre-teens and teens. The film will be mounted on a huge scale with an interesting ensemble cast.” 

Keeping his promise, Bosco will also be announcing the names of a few participants from the show, Dance India Dance, a reality show he judges, at the show finale, who will get a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to feature in his upcoming film. “We are in the final leg of the show, and the winner will definitely feature in the film. Apart from that, I am looking to rope in a few other contestants as well; those whose skills have impressed us,” Bosco adds.

Hritik’s inspiration for weight loss

After giving super hit films like Super 30 Hritik is ready to set the screens on fire with another amazing film WAR. While promoting his film actor landed on the sets of Sony Entertainment Television’s show The Kapil Sharma Show along with his co-star Vani Kapoor. Both the actors had an entertaining time as they went of spilling beans from behind the scenes moments of WAR and shaking legs on the popular song ‘Ghungroo toot gaye’.

During the show, Kapil tried to enquire about the fact that Hritik signed for WAR because Tiger was doing the film. Clarifying the same Hritik mentions, “This wasn’t the major condition but I told the makers that if Tiger is doing the film, I will definitely do the film.” He adds, “After I did Super 30 I had gained a lot of weight. My waist size was around 38inches. Working with Tiger inspired me to lose weight and make it 30 again.” He recalls the movie Life of Pi and says “Everyone needs a Tiger in his boat”.

Further in the show, HR revealed his personal message for Vani after their 1st shoot sequence in WAR. When Vani came on The Kapil Sharma show for the first time she had mentioned that she is a huge fan of HR. Hence Kapil tried to enquire from her that how did she react on meeting him for the 1st time. Vani asked HR to share the incidence. Hritik adds, “I know why she is asking me to narrate the incidence because I wrote a very long text message after my 1st shot with her. She had put her entire heart and emotions into the film. The message read ‘What you have brought into the film is something that I did not expect. You are tremendous actor with full spontaneity.”

Anushka Shetty's NO gave Prachi Tehlan a big time career opportunity

Former national player and the well known actress Prachi Tehlan, who is going to make a debut with Malayalam cinema superstar Mammootty, has an interesting story of Mamangam, the first mega budget film of her career. She is playing the lead character in the film Mamangam and since the release of the first graphical trailer of the film, there has been a growing interest in the Hindi audience. 

According to a published story on Amar Ujala, a few sources reveal that makers of the film had earlier approached South's famous actress Anushka Shetty for the female lead role. Both of the films of Anushka's Bahubali series had become hits by that time and had become a well-known figure in the north region too. However, Anushka wanted to do a light-hearted film after doing two period films, so she refused Mamangam's offer and started shooting for her next film Silence with R. Madhavan. 

On the other hand, after Anushka Shetty's debut, the makers of the movie Mamangam decided to launch a new face with Mammootty instead of going to another big heroine and the film's production team came and camped in Mumbai. Sources associated with the casting of the film Mamangam reveal that auditions for this role were given to all the actresses in Mumbai and Prachi Tehlan's name was final among them. Sources also shared details of how long Prachi prepped for this role before shooting the film. 

Venu Kunappilli, the producer of the film Mamangam, recently held a special program for Malayalam film buffs on the film's set, where Prachi was also specially invited. The first poster of Prachi's Looks has been released and since its release, there have been reports of some big producers of Hindi cinema contacting Prachi as well.
