Varun Dhawan: Bollywood needs new voices, artists from across India
Bollywood star Varun Dhawan, who is gearing up for his upcoming film ‘Baby John’, has spoken about what needs to change in the Hindi film industry.
Hrithik Roshan and Deepika Padukone’s film ‘Fighter’ has faced a setback for fans in Gulf countries, with the exception of the UAE. According to Girish Johar, a film business expert and producer, the movie “has been denied release in all Gulf countries except UAE as of now.” The specific reason for the ban remains undisclosed.
A source close to the ‘Fighter’ team has confirmed this development regarding the film’s release in Gulf countries, excluding the UAE. However, official statements from the makers are yet to be issued.

Siddharth, reflecting on the film, stated, “Mamta (Siddharth’s wife) and I started our film company MARFLIX with #FIGHTER. A film that is ambitious in more ways than one. It’s more than just a film for us, and we have given it our all. As 2024 begins, the nervousness and anxiety are palpable. Here’s hoping that you guys give the same love to FIGHTER that you showered on PATHAAN. Happy new year, guys! See you at the movies on 25th January.” (ANI)
