Randeep Hooda shared that he won’t confine himself to one theme and will explore various genres. The actor also hinted at his next project as a filmmaker, possibly an action film.
When asked about the topics he plans to explore in his next project, Randeep told Ians: “Even as an actor, I have jumped genres and I have jumped roles and characters. So similarly, as a filmmaker, I’ll be jumping genres, and topics. Maybe the next one I will be making an action film.
Randeep made his Bollywood debut in 2001 with ‘Monsoon Wedding’.
Over his two-decade-long journey in Hindi cinema, the actor has delivered some iconic characters and films, including ‘Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster’, ‘Murder 3’, ‘Highway’, and ‘Sarbjit’.
Does he feel there’s an oligarchy that keeps natural talents at bay?
“The industry is not one person or a group of people. It’s different islands trying to do their own thing.

Shraddha Kapoor is going places. And so rapidly that she seems to be getting her feet into a tangle at times.
One hears that after saying yes to Tigmanshu Dhulia's Milan Talkies with Shahid Kapoor, the spirited smart sassy savvy girl has decided to do another film, Vishal Bhardwaj's Kashmir-centric adaptation of Shakespeare's Hamlet entitled Haider, with Shahid.
Says a source close to the project, "Shraddha was finalized for Milan Talkies with Shahid Kapoor after Priyanka Chopra was no more in the film. But then when Vishal Bhardwaj offered her Haider with Shahid, she was too tempted to resist. And since doing two back-to-back films with Shahid did not seem like a good idea, she opted out of Tigmanshu's film leaving it heroine-less for the second time in six months."
When contacted, Tigmanshu admitted Shraddha is no more a part of Milan Talkies. However, he doesn't attribute her...

This one has been in the works for a while, and while the trailer isn't anything too outside the box, there are reasons to believe that the film could deliver something beyond its rather common exterior.Tigmanshu Dhulia is a very good writer and director, and this bodes well for the film. He has plenty of experience putting together Bollywood masala movies, including surprise hits like Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster, but he can also write the more serious stuff like Paan Singh Tomar and...

If we get to hear Lata Mangeshkar's evocative 'Lag Ja Gale Se' in the stunning sequel to Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster, it comes with a heavy price. And film producers are poised for a battle with the music company that owns the copyrights of over 95 percent of the vintage film songs. Getting copyrights of classic film songs for peanuts is a thing of the past. Nowadays producers have to shell out small and large fortunes to get the song of their choice from. Recently, Apoorva Lakhia abandoned plans to use the celebrated Manna Dey qawwalli 'Yaari Hai Imaan Mera' filmed on Pran from the original Zanjeer for the remake and instead decided to record a fresh number to be shot on Sanjay Dutt who takes over Pran's number. The reason given for this was the exorbitant price that the music company Saregama-hmv expected in return for the song's copyright.

First things first; I am hugely disappointed by Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns. And that is precisely why I'm addressing you this week. I went in with huge expectations because I was flabbergasted by the original. It was truly a work of a Master.

This is the much awaited sequel to the much acclaimed ‘Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster’ that came out some time ago. Timangshu Dhulia has once again delved deep into the mysterious characters, who sometimes come to us in a bizarre sort of a way. Each of them is torn between their real life and the life which they actually want to lead. The movie binds us with a passion that rises from within oneself and poisons everybody with its self destructive self. The characters are all abandoned by people around them and the only avenue of escape is to enter the loopy world of politics. The film stars Jimmy Shergill as Saheb, Mahi Gill as Biwi ...

Although I liked Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster moderately I felt it could have been better. In the sequel, Tigmanshu Dhulia fixes all that needed to be fixed the first time round and comes out with a cracker of a film which is bigger and better, much better.
Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns starts where the prequel ended. Saheb/Aditya (Jimmy Sheirgill) is crippled but does not let his disability stop him from ruling his ‘praja’ with an iron hand. Biwi/Madhavi (Mahie Gill) is as alcoholic and brazen as ever, strongly resenting still being a pawn of Saheb’s despite becoming the Mla of her district. Enter the Gangster/Indrajit (Irrfan Khan) who is an ex-royal and dreams of earning back the lost glory which was snatched away a few generations ago by Saheb’s family. That Saheb has set his heart on marrying princess Ranjana (Soha Ali Khan), Indrajit’s lady love,...

This Friday will see the release of Subhash Kapoor’s Saare Jahaan Se Mehnga … and Tigmanshu Dhulia’s Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns. Given the topical theme of Saare Jahaan Se Mehnga … and the success of the first part of Dhulia’s Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster, it promises to be an interesting battle at the box-office, but the more saleable stars of Sbagr may just tip the balance in its favour.

The part two takes the story forward from where it was left in the original, which revolved around three characters entangled in a relationship that culminates in tragedy killing Randeep Hooda's character,.

Mughda Godse will be seen in an item number for the first time in Tigmanshu Dhulia’s Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns. The actress who has no other films in her kitty now says she was looking forward to work with Tigmanshu Dhulia for sometime now.
The item song is a satire on Indian royalty. The song, composed by Sandeep Chowta and sung by Paroma Dasgupta, exposes the dark side and hidden agendas of influential people. An excited Mughda says, “I was chilling in Goa when Tigmanshu called and offered me the song. I said yes immediately as it was quite wacky and a mad number.”
The lyrics of the song have also got a quirky touch. “Media se keh du kya re main khule aam re, haye ke balma bandh kamre mein rajneeti kare.” See what we mean! Like the song, Mughda says that the shoot in Delhi turned...
