The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has made Bollywood fans happy once again. The Academy’s social media page has shared yet another memorable scene from a Hindi film, this time from Ayan Mukerji’s Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani. Released in 2013, the film stars Ranbir Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, Aditya Roy Kapur and Kalki Koechlin in key roles. It remains one of Ayan Mukerji’s most celebrated films and continues to enjoy a strong following more than a decade after its release.

The scene shared by the Academy features Ranbir and Deepika’s characters, Bunny and Naina, as they talk about cherishing the present instead of constantly chasing what comes next. It is the memorable moment where Naina tells Bunny, “Jitna bhi try karo Bunny life mein kuch na kuch toh chootega hi. Toh kyu na jahan hai, wahin ka maza lete haina (No matter how hard you try Bunny, there will always be something you will miss out on. So why not enjoy wherever we are).”

Sharing the scene, the Academy wrote, “A reminder from Naina to enjoy what’s right in front of you.”

Watch it below:

Indian fans were delighted to see the Academy spotlight the popular Hindi film and flocked to the comments section to share their reactions. One netizen joked, “I think the Indian Intern at @theacademy is really putting his/her 100% efforts to give Indian movies their due recognition.” Another added, “The Academy is in love with Deepika Padukone, just like the rest of us.”

Another comment read, “Deepika Padukone has given us so many iconic characters and Naina Talwar is one of the best. What a performance”

Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani follows Bunny, Naina and their friends as they navigate friendship, love, ambition and the choices that shape their lives. The film, which became a major box-office success upon release, has since developed a cult following, with its dialogues, songs and characters continuing to remain popular among audiences.

Tom Cruise’s Days of Thunder is heading back to the big screen, with a sequel officially in the works. Cruise will reprise his role as NASCAR driver Cole Trickle, while Anne Hathaway is set to join him in the upcoming follow-up to the 1990 racing drama.

The announcement was made at a special event at Daytona International Speedway, where Cruise and Paramount Pictures confirmed the new film. Hathaway will reportedly play a team owner and engineer in the sequel.

Cruise also shared a video announcement on social media featuring The Devil Wears Prada star and teased the film’s release with the caption, “Days of Thunder. Summer 2028.”

Check it out below:

Cruise will star in and produce the film alongside Jerry Bruckheimer and Tommy Harper. Jonathan Levine is set to direct, with Will Staples writing the screenplay.

The sequel will be filmed for IMAX and is expected to release in premium large formats, giving audiences the chance to experience the high-speed racing drama on the biggest screens.

The original Days of Thunder, released in 1990, starred Cruise as Cole Trickle, a talented but headstrong NASCAR driver who gets a shot at competing at the highest level. The film was directed by Tony Scott and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer and Don Simpson.

For Cruise, the sequel adds another major theatrical project to a career that has spanned more than four decades. The three-time Oscar nominee is known for films including Risky Business, Jerry Maguire, Top Gun, Top Gun: Maverick and the Mission: Impossible franchise. He is also known for performing many of his own stunts and championing theatrical releases.

Hathaway, meanwhile, is an Academy Award-winning actor whose credits include Les Misérables, The Devil Wears Prada, The Dark Knight Rises, Interstellar and Ocean’s Eight. She recently returned as Andy Sachs in The Devil Wears Prada 2 and also reunited with Christopher Nolan for The Odyssey.

The Days of Thunder sequel will mark the first time Cruise and Hathaway share the screen, with the two stars set to bring the racing franchise back to theatres in June 2028.

Rasha Thadani and Abhay Verma will be sharing the screen for the first time in the upcoming film Laikey Laika. The film’s shoot has been completed, and industry insiders who are working on the post-production of the film are reportedly raving about it.

Abhay Verma has been basking in positive reviews for Safed Sagar, and also has a tremendous lineup with King, JC and Dilkashi, making him one of the most promising actors of the new generation. On the other hand, Rasha has had Uyi Amma as one of the most viral songs we have had in recent times in her debut film Azaad. Besides Laikey Laika, the actress also has a film opposite Vir Hirani, Raj Kumar Hirani’s son.

Now, we are getting to know that the makers of Laikey Laika want to add a solo song for Rasha because of Uyi Amma’s success. This is a part of their promotional strategy.

Our source informs us, “Whoever has watched the film during post-production has said that they loved Abhay and Rasha’s performances. However, in an age where music also plays an important role in Bollywood cinema and considering Rasha has had a hit unlike any other in her generation, the makers want to use that to their advantage. Hence, one more song is being planned to be shot separately, which can work to increase the reach of Bollywood cinemagoers.”  

The genre of the song and details are being kept under wraps while the makers plan to shoot for it soon and prep the film for release.

The posters of the film were released earlier this year. In the posters, Abhay and Rasha are seen embracing each other in a hug. In one of the clicks, they are also seen kissing each other while being bloodied up. In another click, they are forming the ‘heart’ emoticon with their fingers, while having intense expressions on their faces. In their individual character posters, Abhay is seen hiding his face with his hand, while Rasha has a disturbed expression in hers.

The film has been described as a romantic-action entertainer.
