Boney Kapoor South Indian Cinema debate at a 2024 roundtable highlighted evolving dynamics in Indian filmmaking. Joining producer Naga Vamsi, Kapoor discussed Bollywood’s global legacy and regional cinema’s growing impact.

During a discussion on Galatta Plus, Kapoor emphasized Bollywood’s recognition on international platforms. “The King of Morocco honored Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan,” he said, noting South Indian films’ unique appeal. Telugu films thrive in the US, while Tamil films dominate in Singapore and Malaysia, showcasing diverse markets.

Naga Vamsi countered, asserting South Indian cinema’s transformative role in reshaping Indian film narratives. “We South Indians have changed how you view cinema,” he stated, referencing RRR, Baahubali, and Pushpa 2. He suggested Bollywood films were previously limited to audiences in Bandra and Juhu.

Kapoor, visibly irked, clarified, “When I discussed historical films, I meant broader terms. Forums like these don’t permit detailed exploration.” While acknowledging South Indian films’ success, he reaffirmed Bollywood’s enduring legacy and global presence.

Boney Kapoor’s Work Front

Professionally, Boney Kapoor recently appeared in Tu Jhoothi Main Makkaar, starring Ranbir Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor. As a producer, Kapoor worked on Maidaan, a biopic on legendary football coach Syed Abdul Rahim.

The film, starring Ajay Devgn and featuring music by AR Rahman, faced significant delays due to the COVID-19 lockdown and Cyclone Tauktae. Despite challenges, Maidaan is set to release on April 10, 2024.

The debate between Boney Kapoor and Naga Vamsi underscores the shifting dynamics in Indian cinema, where Bollywood and South Indian industries collaborate to redefine its global image.

Sara Arfeen Karan Veer Mehra controversy has escalated after Sara’s eviction from Bigg Boss 18. Following her exit from Salman Khan’s reality show, she opened up about incidents involving Karan Veer Mehra, accusing him of physical assault during the God task.

Expressing her disappointment over leaving the show, Sara stated, “I didn’t expect to be evicted so soon. A lot happened this week—Kashish betrayed me, and Karan Veer physically assaulted me. I wanted to address these issues but didn’t get the chance.”

When questioned about the lack of action against Karan Veer Mehra, Sara attributed his behavior to overconfidence. She remarked, “He gained confidence when Farah Khan called it the ‘Karan Veer Mehra show.’”

Sara further elaborated on the assault, saying, “I sustained bruises and scratches after Karan pushed me. Despite seeing my injuries, he didn’t apologize.” She dismissed claims that she was acting, maintaining, “I slipped because he pushed me, not by accident.”

Taking the allegations further, Sara hinted at a pattern of behavior from Karan. She said, “He claims to respect women, but his actions suggest otherwise, especially considering he’s been divorced twice. His true colors are emerging, but the audience seems to overlook them.”

Before her stint in Bigg Boss 18, Sara Arfeen appeared in Rohit Shetty’s Singham Again. Her eviction and the allegations have added another layer of drama to the ongoing season of the reality show.
