Shah Rukh Khan took to Twitter to thank his fans for their birthday wishes and said, "It's unbelievable that so many of u come & wish me late at night. I am but a mere actor.

BREAKING: Contrary to reports, The Marvels to share shows with Salman Khan’s Tiger 3 in IMAX screens; to take advantage of Tiger 3's Sunday release and go for wide screen count for the first two days

There have been reports floating in media circles that The Marvels won't get a release in the IMAX screens in India since Salman Khan's Tiger 3 has snatched away shows in the premium screens. Bollywood Hungama has learned that this is not the case.

A source told Bollywood Hungama, “The Marvels will share shows with Tiger 3. But contrary to certain reports, it's not like it'll skip a release in IMAX. Marvel and IMAX have a long association and there's no way an MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) film would not release in IMAX screens in India.”

Further talking about the screen count, the source added, “Tiger 3 releases on Sunday, November 12. The Marvels, meanwhile, will hit the theatres on Friday, November 10. The Marvels will take advantage of Tiger 3's Sunday release and go for a wide release for the first two days in all languages and all formats.”

The source continued, “The shows will obviously reduce once Tiger 3 arrives in cinemas on November 12. But the Disney team is confident that by then, word of mouth will spread and they'll get the audience in hordes once the holidays begin from Monday, November 13.”

An exhibitor reminded, "This also happened last year during Diwali 2022. Warner Bros' Black Adam was released on Friday, October 21. It had a wide release before Ram Setu and Thank God released on Tuesday, October 25. By then, it collected a healthy Rs. 23.50 crores in four days and continued to earn thereafter as the positive reports of the film were out."

He added, “The Nun II also clashed with Shah Rukh Khan's Jawan in September this year and still was a hit. The Marvels can also follow suit if the content is strong.”

Meanwhile, the advance booking of The Marvels began today. Tiger 3's ticket sales will start on Sunday, November 5.

Tiger 3 gets bigger! Hrithik Roshan joins the Salman Khan starrer, YRF Spy Universe brings back Kabir: Report

Yash Raj Films is ready to set the cash counters ringing this festive season with its latest offering Tiger 3, a YRF Spy Universe film. Starring Salman Khan & Katrina Kaif, Tiger 3 is set to release on Diwali Day, Sunday, November 12! While fans are excited to see the reunion of Tiger and Zoya, they are equally excited to witness Shah Rukh Khan's Pathaan appear in the project. Now, it seems like the third spy Kabir from War, played by Hrithik Roshan, is also set to make a surprise appearance in the third installment of the Tiger franchise.

For unversed, though Salman Khan was the first spy in the YRF Spy Universe, Pathaan starring Shah Rukh Khan kicked off the interconnection between the said universe. Salman Khan made an extended cameo in the movie as Tiger and the audience was delighted to have the beloved Khans back on the big screen. Now that Pathaan is gearing up to help Tiger in the Maneesh Sharma directorial, Kabir is heading to the franchise. According to a report in Pinkvilla, a source revealed,  “Aditya Chopra has set the wheel in motion for a full convergence of super spies within the YRF Spy Universe. No one knows, but along with Pathaan, Kabir will also be making an appearance in Tiger 3. A handful of people know how Adi is visualizing Kabir in Tiger 3 and this information is being kept under wraps to be only revealed on the big screen when Tiger 3 releases on November 12.”

“Three of India’s biggest superstars – Salman, SRK & Hrithik – are in the same universe and now also the same film. This is definitely a moment to celebrate for all the cine-goers. Kabir’s appearance in Tiger 3 is just the beginning of something special in the future of this universe. At this point in time, no one knows the dynamics of how the three super spies will be presented and if they will be in the same frame or not,” the source added.

Hrithik Roshan is already starring in War 2 which will be helmed by Ayan Mukerji. It also stars Jr. NTR and Kiara Advani. Meanwhile, there is another spy project with Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan titled Tiger vs Pathaan to be directed by Siddharth Anand.

Tiger 3 is the 5th film in the blockbuster YRF Spy Universe which follows the events of Ek Tha Tiger, Tiger Zinda Hai, War & Pathaan. It has been directed by Maneesh Sharma.

Uorfi Javed ARRESTED for her fashion choices? Video shows police taking her into custody, watch

A video has gone viral on social media showing Uorfi Javed being taken into police custody on Friday morning in Mumbai. The video, shared by paparazzo Viral Bhayani, shows Uorfi on a coffee run when a group of alleged police officers approach her and ask her to accompany them to the police station.

When the former Bigg Boss OTT contestant questions the reason for her detention, one of the officers asks her in return, "Itne chote chote kapde pehenke kaun ghumta hai?" (Who walks around wearing such skimpy clothes?)

The 26-year-old actress-model is seen wearing a backless red top and a pair of denim pants in the video. She is seen asking the officials for the reason again, but they do not provide her with a clear answer.

Social media users are divided over the authenticity of the video. Some believe that it is a prank by Uorfi herself, while others believe that she has indeed been arrested. Thus, it is still unclear whether Uorfi has actually been arrested or if the video is just a prank. 

Having said that, it is worth noting that Uorfi has landed in trouble due to her fashion choices in the past. Last month, a complaint was filed against her at the Bandra Police Station for her fashion choices, according to ETimes. The actress had visited the police station soon after the complaint was filed.
