🚨 Top 5 Trending Bollywood & Punjabi News – June 26, 2025
Fresh revelations, untold stories, and emotional displays — today’s headlines are too compelling to scroll past. Let’s dive in 👇
🎥 Aamir Khan Hosts Sitare Zameen Par Screening for President Murmu
Bollywood megastar Aamir Khan went above and beyond traditional film promotion by hosting an exclusive screening of his upcoming film Sitare Zameen Par at Rashtrapati Bhavan. The guest of honor? President Droupadi Murmu. This high-profile screening has ignited discussions on whether the move was a gesture of patriotism or strategic PR right before the film’s release.
Critics suggest this could be an attempt to wrap the film in a nationalistic narrative, gaining state-level validation ahead of box-office competition. However, fans believe it’s simply a sign of the respect Aamir commands in both entertainment and cultural spheres.
If the movie lives up to expectations, this screening may go down as one of Bollywood’s most prestigious promotional stunts—merging politics, cinema, and social symbolism.
🎬 Mansoor Khan Breaks Silence on Casting Regrets & Depression
Veteran filmmaker Mansoor Khan, the brain behind iconic films like Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak and Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar, has candidly spoken out about his personal struggles with casting decisions and subsequent depression. He revealed that misfires in casting led to emotional turmoil and self-doubt during his career peak.
The confession has sparked much-needed conversations on mental health in Bollywood, where image often overshadows vulnerability. Many young filmmakers and actors applauded Mansoor’s bravery in sharing what’s often hidden behind silver screen glamour.
It also serves as a wake-up call that creative decisions carry not just professional but emotional consequences. His honesty may finally bring attention to the human cost of filmmaking.
💔 Sunita Ahuja Breaks Silence on Govinda-Avatar Casting Rumor
Sunita Ahuja, wife of 90s superstar Govinda, has shut down bizarre rumors floating online that Govinda was once offered a role in James Cameron’s Avatar. “I’m not aware of any such offer,” she told reporters, brushing off the viral claim with a mix of amusement and disbelief.
While some fans called it harmless nostalgia, others criticized it as another example of Bollywood’s obsession with Western validation. The news did the rounds on social media, reigniting discussions around Govinda’s missed opportunities and public image reinvention.
In the age of AI-generated headlines and retro PR spins, this denial might serve to reframe Govinda’s brand as more grounded and reality-aware.
🧑⚖️ Makers of Kannappa Warn Trolls Ahead of Release
With Ajay Devgn’s highly anticipated mythological epic Kannappa hitting theaters tomorrow, the production team has issued a strong public warning against online trolling and fake reviews. This rare move aims to protect the film’s integrity and maintain excitement before audiences make their own judgments.
The makers emphasized that coordinated negativity on social media harms not just the cast and crew but the culture of cinema consumption itself. In a statement, they urged fans to experience the film firsthand before forming opinions.
Will this strategy discourage negative chatter or simply draw more eyes to controversy? Either way, Kannappa has everyone’s attention now, and the countdown has only made things more dramatic.
📢 AICWA Calls for Ban on Diljit Dosanjh’s Sardaar Ji 3
The All India Cine Workers Association (AICWA) has taken a fiery stand against Diljit Dosanjh over his casting of Pakistani actress Hania Aamir in Sardaar Ji 3. They’ve requested the Central Government ban the film and prohibit Diljit from public events, including concerts.
While fans argue that cinema should bridge borders, AICWA has insisted this move dishonors national sentiment amid tense Indo-Pak relations. With trolls, hashtags, and debates exploding online, Diljit has yet to make a second statement since defending the project earlier this week.
Whether this backlash will impact box office numbers or fade as just another outrage cycle remains to be seen—but *Sardaar Ji 3* is already the most talked-about film of the season for all the wrong reasons.
