Veteran artiste Raghubir Yadav has a pivotal role in Om Ka Hari, which released in theatres on Friday September 18. Directed by Harish Vyas, the movie sees the actor play father to Anshuman Jha, who has also produced the film under his banner First Ray Films. The movie explores a bitter-sweet conflict between a father and his son. In an exclusive chat with Bollywood Hungama, Yadav said that he agreed to do the film as he has witnessed such scenarios before. “I have stayed a lot in a lot of villages in UP (Uttar Pradesh), MP (Madhya Pradesh) and Bihar. I have been witnessing this relationship between a father and his kids since ages. Earlier, it was different and then things started changing. In our era, people didn’t have much money to study. A father used to somehow educate his children and take them to a level. He then would look at the son of his neighbour and get his son also to become an engineer and get married.” Yadav pointed out that now, of course, things have changed. “Now t...

Lyricist Sameer had a conversation with Komal Nahta and spoke about the banners and filmmakers he particularly enjoyed working with over the years. Sameer said, “I had a wonderful time working with Yash Chopra and his production house. I haven’t done a lot of work with them; I wrote songs for Aaina (1993), Yeh Dillagi (1994), Dhoom (2004), Dhoom 2 (2006) and Dhoom 3 (2013). Unke yahaan kaam karne ka mazaa hai kyunki bahut sensibility ke saath kaam hota hai. While working with them, you’d feel like you are a part of their family. They understand cinema, the craft, lyrics, poetry, etc.” Sameer continued, “I wrote 3 films for B R Chopra – Kal Ki Awaz (1992), Baghban (2003) and Baabul (2006). I can’t tell you the contribution of Chopra saab during Baghban. I had a good time working with Karan Johar. I only did two films with him – Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998) and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (2001). Lekin jo kaam karne ki samajh uss aadmi mein hai, khaas kar music ko leke, it's praiseworthy....

After more than three decades in Hindi cinema, Kajol Devgn remains one of the industry’s most distinctive voices, known for performances that blend emotional depth with individuality across genres—from Baazigar and Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge to Gupt, Fanaa, My Name Is Khan and Maa. As Artificial Intelligence increasingly enters conversations around filmmaking and storytelling, Kajol has weighed in on why she believes human creativity cannot be replaced by a machine. Kajol drew a clear line between algorithmic output and human imagination. “A machine has thoughts that are already there in a library, but human beings have the capacity to create emotions and feelings that may have never existed before,” said Kajol Devgn. She explained that AI works by drawing from existing information and prior work. “If you give AI a prompt and say, write a poem for me, write a haiku poem for me of five lines, or write an Urdu poem for me of five lines, it probably would be able to do it very well. I w...
