Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba: Vicky Kaushal lauds brother Sunny’s performance as a ‘twisted character’; ‘You have truly surprised me’

Taapsee Pannu and Vikrant Massey are all set to reprise their roles in the sequel of the 2021 film Haseen Dillruba. Directed by Jayprad Desai, Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba is all set to premiere on August 9, 2024, on Netflix. But before the romantic thriller could be viewed and reviewed by the audience, a special screening was organized in Mumbai.

At the star-studded event, Vicky Kaushal arrived to support his brother, actor Sunny Kaushal, who plays the role of Abhimanyu in the film. Soon after watching the movie, the Dunki actor took to his Instagram stories and reviewed Sunny’s performance in Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba.

Lauding the Shiddat actor, Vicky penned, “@sunsunnykhez You have truly surprised me with your ability to pull off such a twisted character. So tastefully done. I know how excited you were to take up this part and could see you have fun playing it through and through. So proud! Onwards and upwards brother!”

At the special screening of Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba, celebs like Taapsee Pannu, Vikrant Massey, Aparshakti Khurana, Abhishek Banerjee, Dia Mirza, Jimmy Sheirgill, Sonam Bajwa, actor couple Sargun Mehta and Ravi Dubey, Sharad Kelkar, Sumona Chakravarti, and others arrived. Sunny and Vicky’s parents, father Sham Kaushal and mom Veena Kaushal also attended the event.

Talking to The Indian Express, Taapsee Pannu shared that Haseen Dillruba was supposed to arrive in 2020 instead of 2021, the same year as her film Thappad. But that didn’t happen due to the COVID-19 pandemic. She recalled, “When Haseen Dillruba released in 2021, I had planned two films a year, but it so happened that I could only have one (in 2020), and then everything got piled on and it started coming out as a burst!”

Yet again, two of her movies Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba and Khel Khel Mein are releasing back-to-back this month. Calling it the “other extreme,” Taapsee stated that she didn’t want this. But it’s a relief since one is releasing on OTT and the other in cinemas. For the unknown, Khel Khel Mein also stars Akshay Kumar, Ammy Virk, Vaani Kapoor, Fardeen Khan, Aditya Seal, and Pragya Jaiswal. It is scheduled to hit theatres on August 15, 2024.

Farhan Akhtar shares what ‘alpha males’ mean according to him, says ‘If I have to go around banging drum…’

We have grown up watching many alpha male characters in Bollywood movies, be it Kabir Singh in Kabir Singh, Ranvijay Singh in Animal or Radhe in Tere Naam. Actor Farhan Akhtar has recently defined what alpha males stand for in his dictionary by saying that a person needs not to go around banging a drum and declare that he is the ‘Bob’.

During the latest podcast with YouTuber Raj Shamani, Farhan Akhtar was asked to define the concept of alpha males and how he perceives the whole idea around it. He shared that the alpha is an individual who “wants to be at the top of the pyramid.”

Farhan explained that each person is a “hero of their story”. For him, the actor-filmmaker is his hero who decides what he will be going to do in his life. Without mentioning the names, Farhan quipped that he has a “great supporting cast” in his life.

Elaborating further on how he sees alpha males, the Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara actor said, “Alpha means the leader of a pack and that to me is…how macho is that? The minute you are getting into a discussion of ‘I am better than you’…It is not something an alpha male would need to impress on someone.”

He added, “If I have to go around banging a drum and telling people ‘I am the Bob’…Kya Bob hua boss, ki tu ja raha hai har jagah aur bata raha hai sabko (Why are you declaring it to the world that you are the Bob)…People should feel it.”

The Don 3 director concluded by saying that we should treat people with dignity and make them feel important in our lives.

Farhan Akhtar has acted in movies like Rock On, Karthik Calling Karthik, Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, Dil Dhadakne Do, Luck By Chance, and more. His other films include Rock On 2, The Sky Is Pink, Shaadi Ke Side Effects, and Wazir.

He was last seen in Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s directorial sports drama, Toofaan in 2021. Farhan is now directing Don 3, co-starring Ranveer Singh and Kiara Advani in the lead roles.
