Sridevi remains one of the most influential performers in Indian cinema, with a career spanning more than five decades and multiple languages. She began working as a child artist in South Indian cinema before becoming one of the biggest stars in Hindi cinema, with films such as Sadma, Mr India, Chandni, ChaalBaaz, Lamhe, Gumrah and Judaai among her best-known works. She was also widely regarded as Indian cinema’s first female superstar.
After a long hiatus, Sridevi made a celebrated comeback with English Vinglish in 2012. Her final leading role came in Mom (2017). The actress died in Dubai on February 24, 2018.  Her death was attributed to accidental drowning.
Even years after her death, Sridevi continues to remain a major part of conversations around Indian cinema. Her performances, screen presence and influence on generations of actors have ensured that her legacy continues to live on, while her daughters Khushi and Janhvi Kapoor have carried her presence into a new generation of Bollywood.

Exclusive: Taapsee Pannuâs Gandhari Inspired By The Mahabharata?

Taapsee Pannu is set to headline Gandhari, an upcoming action thriller that sees the actor take on a physically demanding role. One of the most intriguing aspects of the film is Taapsee performing action sequences blindfolded, adding another layer of challenge to a character built around strength, instinct and determination.

According to our source, “Taapsee Pannu’s Gandhari is said to be a modern-day interpretation inspired by the Mahabharata. In the epic, Gandhari’s character holds a crucial and intriguing place as a devoted wife and mother, and the film is expected to explore a contemporary take on some of those themes through Taapsee’s character.”

In the Mahabharata, Gandhari is known as the devoted wife of Dhritarashtra and the mother of the Kauravas. She famously chose to blindfold herself for much of her life, mirroring her husband’s blindness. Beyond this, Gandhari remains an important figure in the epic, particularly for her strength, devotion and relationship with her family.

The film is expected to take these associations into a contemporary setting, with the story combining revenge, action and mystery. The blindfolded action sequences further connect the film to the central idea associated with Gandhari, while keeping the narrative firmly rooted in the present day.

Taapsee has time and again proved her mettle as a phenomenal actress and her fans are super excited for her upcoming venture. The film is already attracting a lot of eyeballs for its storyline. Taapsee is known to attach her name with credible projects and her upcoming film promises to be an entertaining watch.

Prabhasâ Fauzi: Publicity Designers Confirm AI Was Used in The Poster

Recently, the makers of Prabhas-starrer Fauzi unveiled a poster announcing the film’s release date, December 3, 2026. Netizens were quick to speculate that the image was AI-generated. The film’s publicity designers, Anil and Bhanu, addressed the speculation surrounding Prabhas’ Fauzi first look in an interview with Gulte.com. They confirmed that AI was used, but only in a limited capacity.

Fauzi poster designers explain

According to them, AI was used to remove distracting elements from the frame. Some background figures were not needed for the poster, and the designers felt that these elements looked distracting, so they were edited out using AI tools.

However, they remained firm about one thing: the main image, especially Prabhas’ face, was not created using AI. They explained that AI cannot capture genuine emotion in an expression, so that part of the work remained entirely manual. The clarification comes at a time when many film posters are facing scrutiny over the use of AI. Anil and Bhanu’s statement draws a clear line between AI-assisted cleanup and the core creative output.

An enormously successful poster

Meanwhile, the first look has been a rage. Released alongside the film’s theatrical release date announcement, the poster has generated extraordinary online engagement. In July, it became the most-shared first-look poster for an Indian film. According to the makers, the poster amassed more than 533,000 shares within its first 24 hours on Instagram.

Producer speaks about Prabhas’ dedication

Meanwhile, at an event on Wednesday evening, producer Y Ravi Shankar stated that Prabhas is highly dedicated to the Fauzi sets. He is present every day from around 8 AM to 6:30 PM, staying close to the proceedings and carefully overseeing everything. Even on days when he isn’t shooting, he still comes to the sets and sits by the monitor.
