Rubina Dilaik and Abhinav Shukla win big at Colors’ Dhamaal With Pati Patni Aur Panga; say, “It was a superb way for us to spend time together without life rushing by us”

Colors’ Dhamaal With Pati Patni Aur Panga signed off its debut season with Rubina Dilaik and Abhinav Shukla emerging as the Sarvagun Sampann Jodi. The reality series, positioned as a light-hearted look into the dynamics of marriage, quickly became one of the channel’s standout non-fiction successes of the year, offering a mix of humour, emotional moments, and candid exchanges between celebrity couples.

Hosted by Sonali Bendre and Munawar Faruqui, the show brought together seven celebrity jodis who participated in challenges designed to reflect the everyday quirks, conflicts, and warmth that shape married life. Over several weeks, audiences saw the couples navigate unexpected tasks, revisit personal milestones, and address the relatable push-and-pull that accompanies long-term partnerships. The season culminated in a grand finale styled like a big fat Indian wedding, where the couples dressed as dulha and dulhan to symbolically renew their vows in a celebratory setting.

For fans of Rubina and Abhinav, watching the duo together on screen again added a nostalgic charm to the season. Their spirited banter, emotional transparency and light-hearted humour became recurring highlights. At one point, Rubina teased, “Engineers mein sabse poor quality ka romance hota hai,” while Abhinav’s steady gestures—including a heartfelt birthday gift from their financially tougher days—resonated strongly with viewers who appreciated the couple’s authenticity.

After three months of competition, eliminations, and unexpected turns, the couple secured the winning title. Sharing their gratitude, Rubina and Abhinav said, “Dhamaal with Pati Patni Aur Panga was a superb way for us to spend time together without life rushing by us. As a couple, we’re far from perfect, and we, along with other couples, were very candid about our blind spots, and that was super liberating. Winning this trophy is extremely special; it’s the result of all the love we’ve received from the viewers and the supportive spirit of every couple who made this journey so much fun”.

“We want to thank Colors and the makers of this show for creating a space that was honest, warm, and full of heart. Our deepest gratitude to Sonali ma’am and Munawar for their love, gentleness, humour, and guidance. And to the audience, thank you for pampering us like we’re your own family. If there’s one thing we hope our journey reminds people of, it’s this: Love is not about being flawless. It is about choosing each other over everything else, even on the days it feels hardest”, the winning couple added.

With the show now concluded, Colors will release its next non-fiction offering, Laughter Chefs, premiering on November 22 at 9 PM.

The Producers Circle: Powerhouses shaping India’s streaming revolution

The Bollywood Hungama OTT India Fest and India Entertainment Awards are not far away. The mega event is all set to take place on December 3 and 4 in Mumbai. One can expect some of the OTT giants to gather under a single roof.

Before that happens, here’s looking at some of the powerhouse production houses that are shaping India’s streaming revolution:

Rajshri Productions

With the series Bada Naam Karenge, Rajshri Productions stepped decisively into the digital-first world, bringing its legacy of family-romance storytelling into a fresh OTT format. They leveraged their hallmark of emotional intimacy and high production values, adapting it for modern streaming audiences while retaining their hallmark sensibility of relationships and tradition. In doing so, they bridged the gap between old-school cinematic values and new-age OTT narratives.

Balaji Telefilms

Known traditionally for its dominant presence in Indian TV, Balaji made noteworthy inroads into OTT in 2025, for example with the superhero-themed series Power Of Paanch. Their shift into genre experimentation (super-powers, fantasy) signals their recognition that streaming audiences demand variety beyond conventional family dramas. The production house’s legacy brand clout gave its digital projects a head-start in terms of visibility and credibility.

The Viral Fever (TVF)

With the web series Court Kacheri, TVF expanded its focus from youth-slice-of-life comedy-drama into more mature genres like legal drama and legacy conflict. The show demonstrates TVF’s adaptability: although rooted in relatable storytelling, it is willing to tackle rougher terrain (courtrooms, inter-generational rivalry) and deliver high-quality OTT fare. In 2025 this underlines how their digital-native sensibility continues to evolve.

Dashami Creations

With the mystery-thriller series The Secret of the Shiledars, Dashami Creations showed that even newer banners can deliver compelling OTT content. Their choice of genre (mystery + thriller), tight episodic structure (6 episodes) and streaming mindset point to a shift in how OTT content is being packaged in India: compact, gripping, and designed for binge-viewing.

Drishyam Films (and N2O Films)

These two collaborated for the action-drama series Loot Kaand, a lean six-episode heist thriller set in rural India. With crisp pacing, a gritty setting and strong narrative drive, this production shows how OTT is giving space to more compact seasons and genre-driven storytelling. The involvement of Drishyam and N2O illustrates how film-oriented production houses are transitioning into the streaming era with purposeful originals.

The Bollywood Hungama OTT India Fest and India Entertainment Awards is presented by SleepZ by Raymond, co-powered by Fima, Carlo Frattini, and Amante in association with Helios, Style Partner Rare Rabbit, Lovestory Patner Truly Madly, Stylish Furniture Partner Uraban Ladder, with healthcare partner HCG, skincare partner Fixferma, Spirituality partner Satvik, conversation partner Bevzilla, gourmet dessert partner Smoor, nutrition partner The Naturik Co., radio partner Radio City and celebration partner Heineken Silver.

BREAKING: S S Rajamouli’s Mahesh Babu-Priyanka Chopra starrer Varanasi the first Indian film which is 'filmed for IMAX'

S S Rajamouli, M M Keeravani, Mahesh Babu, Priyanka Chopra, Prithviraj Sukumaran and others attended the grand Globetrotter event in Hyderabad. At this event, Rajamouli announced that his film Varanasi will be the first film of Indian cinema to be filmed in IMAX.

S S Rajamouli came on stage and explained that certain films, which are released in IMAX screens, are “blown up”. He said, “That is not true IMAX.” He also said that his films like Baahubali and RRR (2022) were in the 1:1.9 format. The 100 feet x 130 feet screen, the biggest ever, behind the blockbuster filmmaker, explained the difference between the aforementioned two formats. Then he showed a visual that covered the whole screen. Rajamouli said, “Our film (Varanasi) will be screened full screen. It is filmed for IMAX!”

He explained, “I'm so proud to say that we are introducing new technology to Telugu Cinema - Premium large-scale format. It is filmed for IMAX.” As expected, the crowd went into a frenzy. S S Rajamouli then asked his team, “Can I have the trailer in full-screen format?”

Sadly, there was a glitch. Rajamouli regretted the error and informed the crowd that 45 generators had been used to power up the screen. After some time, the announcement video was finally played in all its glory and got a roaring response.

Earlier in the day, Prithviraj Sukumaran said how he bagged the film, “The famous S S Rajamouli narration that my friend Prabhas told me so much about, started. 5 minutes into the narration, I was blown away. For the rest of the 3 hours, I heard it not as an actor listening to a narration pitch but more like a little boy who has laid his hands on the next edition of his favourite comic book! The scale, the vision, the ambition – everything was India’s greatest contemporary filmmaking, pushing his own limits to never-before-seen territory.”

Varanasi-Globetrotter event: Priyanka Chopra cutely joins Mahesh Babu fans in chanting "Babu, Babu"; thanks his family, "Namrata Shirodkar, Sitara Ghattamaneni made me feel that Hyderabad is home"

Priyanka Chopra stole the show at the Globetrotter event in Hyderabad held to launch the much-awaited film Varanasi. She was joined by S S Rajamouli, M M Keeravani, Mahesh Babu, Prithviraj Sukumaran and others. The actress has achieved global fame and that’s how she was introduced and celebrated at the event.

Priyanka Chopra said, “This is a land where cinema is a celebration. I am so happy to be back making this movie in my beloved India.”

She raised expectations for Varanasi, “Fans have no idea about the music in store. This is just the beginning. The song that Shruti Haasan sang so beautifully is just the beginning.”

Priyanka then talked about her co-star Prithviraj Sukumaran, who plays the antagonist. She revealed, “Prithvi in the film is very, very scary and terrifying. But in real life, you are the complete opposite. Thank you so much for your kindness.”

For S S Rajamouli, she said, “You are truly the visionary.” Soon, fans got the hint that she’s next going to speak about Mahesh Babu. They went into a frenzy. Priyanka Chopra teased the fans by asking the fans whether they call him Bob or Lion. She continued, “I know him as MB. I also know him as the incredible, legendary Mahesh Babu!”

Fans started chanting “Babu, Babu,” as they affectionately addressed their favourite star. Priyanka Chopra, too, joined the fans in chanting the same and it made for a cute moment.

She then praised Mahesh Babu’s wife and daughter, “You and your beautiful family, Namrata (Shirodkar) and Sitara (Ghattamaneni), have made me feel that Hyderabad is home. Thank you so much for treating me like your family.”

Earlier in the day, Prithviraj Sukumaran, too, praised Priyanka Chopra, “I have always been a big, big fan of PC. Jhilmil from Barfi (2012) is on my list of the greatest performances by an Indian actor ever! It’s a privilege to see you transform into Mandakini from such close quarters.”

Shahrukhz By Danube launch: Farah Khan reveals, “When Shah Rukh Khan turned producer, I was told, ‘What SRK is doing is SUICIDAL; an actor should NEVER start a production house”; SRK jokes, “‘Ghafoor’ mein main Tamannaah Bhatia jitna accha dance kar leta na?”

On Thursday, November 13, Bollywood Hungama was the first one to predict that Rizwan Sajan, the founder and chairman of Danube Group, would launch a tower named after Shah Rukh Khan at an event held in Mumbai on November 14. Our news break came true. SRK himself graced the occasion for the launch of the skyscraper, called Shahrukhz By Danube, and as expected, raised laughs and touched hearts with his quotes. An animated AV played at the beginning drew parallels between SRK and Rizwan, as both had no backing and made a name for themselves in their respective fields through sheer hard work and determination.

Rizwan Sajan told the host, Farah Khan, “Innovation is important. When I entered the property business, there were so many giants selling properties in Dubai. I asked myself, ‘What should I do differently so that I can also be able to sell my inventory in the midst of these big real estate companies’. I realized that 85% of the expat population is unable to buy their house. Hence, I started the 1% payment plan. It made buying a house affordable for many people. This is how I keep innovating.”

Farah Khan remarked, “Rizwan bhai, this holds true for Shah Rukh as well. Almost 25 years ago, he started his production house. Then, it was called Dreamz Unlimited. So many producers told me, ‘Tum Shah Rukh ki dost ho. Usko bolo that what he is doing is suicidal. An actor should never start a production house. Yeh aisa kyun kar raha hai? He should just act and take his money’. Yet, he took the plunge. His first two to three films didn’t really do well. But he kept on at it. Similarly, he was the first actor to start a VFX studio in India. I think it’s the best in the world now.”

Shah Rukh Khan added, “As Rizwan bhai said, you need to keep reinventing. If people are able to do that, they make themselves viable for a longer period of time. This is because they don’t have the ego that they have done it all. Every day, such people wake up hoping that others like the new stuff that they are bringing to the table. Like if I am able to learn a new dance form, I would do that.”

At this point, Farah Khan talked about a popular song from The Ba***ds Of Bollywood, directed by SRK’s son Aryan, featuring Tamannaah Bhatia, “I missed you during ‘Ghafoor’. I wanted you to do the (signature step).” SRK replied, “‘Ghafoor’ mein main Tamannaah jitna accha dance kar leta na?” Farah smiled and said, “You would have done it better than her.”

Towards the end, Rizwan Sajan announced, “A building named after Shah Rukh Khan will not just be located in Dubai. It’ll soon be built across the world. You’ll find Shah Rukh Tower in New York, London, Delhi, Mumbai and other major cities in the world! This is my gut feeling and I think I am right about it.”

Shah Rukh Khan asked whether Shahrukhz By Danube will be built in 4-5 years? Rizwan answered, “It’ll be ready in 3 to 4 years.” SRK joked, “I commit a bit more as I am used to changing my film’s release dates!”

Another fun moment of the event was when Shah Rukh Khan made Rizwan Sajan do his signature pose and also made the latter dance to the song ‘Chaiyya Chaiyya’.

Shahrukhz By Danube launch: Shah Rukh Khan’s 30-minute Zoom MIRACLE - Superstar consoles unwell fan Sameera, chats with her online: “He gave her solace, prayed for her. He told her, You'll be fine'”

Yesterday, Bollywood Hungama was the first one to predict that Rizwan Sajan, the founder and chairman of Danube Group, would launch a tower named after Shah Rukh Khan at an event held in Mumbai on November 14. Our news break came true. SRK himself graced the occasion for the launch of the skyscraper, called Shahrukhz By Danube, and as expected, raised laughs and touched hearts with his quotes.

Rizwan Sajan revealed a thoughtful gesture of Shah Rukh, which won hearts, “Once, I was returning from Mumbai. Fortunately, Shah Rukh and Pooja Dadlani were on the same flight. We greeted each other. I was sitting right behind him on the Emirates flight. I called my wife, Sameera, and informed her about it. She's a huge fan of his. She asked me to talk to him. Unfortunately, she is not well. So, she told me, 'Please tell Shah Rukh that I love him and that he should pray for me'. I had reservations about intruding on their privacy. But she insisted.”

Rizwan continued, “I asked Pooja to allow me to speak to Shah Rukh for 2 minutes. When the flight landed, Shah Rukh called me. I gave him my wife's message. Shah Rukh, being humble and so nice as always, asked me when I would reach home. I told him that I'll be home in half an hour. Meanwhile, my son Adel and Sameera were in London. I didn't tell her anything. Once I reached home, I put them on the line. Shah Rukh then came on a Zoom call with her. He spoke to her not just for 5 minutes but for more than 30 long minutes. He gave her solace and good luck. He told her, 'Sameera, you'll be fine'. He also prayed for her. Anybody else in his place would have prayed for my wife's recovery and moved on. But what Shah Rukh did touched the hearts of all of us.”

Rizwan added, “Once when I was in London, I had a dream at 6 in the morning that I was building this tower and that I named it after Shah Rukh. Sameera jumped at the idea. Adel, Sana and my marketing team were also quite excited. I then messaged Pooja and asked if it (making a tower named after Shah Rukh) was possible. After a few days, she said that it was possible. The next day, I was at Shah Rukh's house and we finalized the project.”

The host of the evening, Farah Khan, raised laughs as she quipped, “When Pooja says 'It’s possible', only then it's possible!”

HISTORIC: Dubai Tower named after Shah Rukh Khan, Shahrukhz By Danube, launched; to have a statue of King Khan; SRK says, “Meri maa zinda hoti toh bahut khush hoti!”; adds, “Eid ke chand ki tarah main bahar kam aata hoon. Lekin jab aata hoon, tab kamaal aata hoon!”

Yesterday, Bollywood Hungama was the first one to predict that Rizwan Sajan, the founder and chairman of Danube Group, will launch a tower named after Shah Rukh Khan at an event held in Mumbai on November 14. Our news break came to be true. SRK himself graced the occasion for the launch of the skyscraper, called Shahrukhz By Danube, and as expected, raised laughs and touched hearts with his quotes. Rizwan Sajan spoke highly of Shah Rukh and how he had a long chat with his wife on Zoom when he told her that she was ill. But the event went on another level when King Khan made an entry.

Shah Rukh Khan warmly greeted Rizwan Sajan and gave a peck on the cheek to the host, Farah Khan. Farah joked, “I know you are all very jealous. Once more, please!” SRK smiled and kissed her cheeks again!

Shah Rukh then said, “Main Eid ka chand jaisa ho gaya hoon. Bahar kam aata hoon. Lekin jab aata hoon, tab kamaal aata hoon!” As expected, there was applause and hoots.

He revealed, “I asked Rizwan bhai if the event would be held in Dubai. He told me, ‘Nahin. Mera desh mere bahut kareeb hai. Hence, I want to launch it in Mumbai’. He meant it.”

Rizwan’s son, Adel Sajan, Managing Director, Danube Group, then took over and explained the salient features of Shahrukhz By Danube. He revealed that it’s a 55-storey office tower. He added, “Not only do we have a helipad, but also an air taxi station. In 2026, Dubai will be introducing Air Taxi station and you could be entering in style in Shah Rukh’s tower!”

Interestingly, the entrance of Shahrukhz By Danube will have a statue of Shah Rukh in his signature pose. Adel explained, “The idea is not just to have an office tower but my father’s vision was that he wanted it to be like a tourist destination. When my mother comes to Mumbai, the first thing she has to do is to go outside Mannat and take a picture. Likewise, millions of Indians go to Dubai. When we created Shahrukhz By Danube in the heart of Sheikh Zayed Road, we are anticipating that people are going to queue outside and take a picture with the King himself!”

After the presentation, Shah Rukh Khan was asked for his reaction. The superstar was too overwhelmed and he said, “What can I say? Meri maa zinda hoti toh bahut khush hoti! It’s a very big honour. When I take my kids to Dubai, I’ll tell them, ‘Yeh dekh. Papa ki building hai’ although the building is owned by Rizwan bhai! Lekin naam toh mera likha hoga (smiles).

Ranbir Kapoor confesses why he doesn't want to be on Instagram; says, "I already have acting as a medium to show myself to the world and that's enough!"

Ranbir Kapoor, who has long maintained an air of mystery around his social media presence, finally lifted the curtain during a recent event in Dubai, where he appeared alongside Alia Bhatt. When host Kris Fade posed the question he admits he has been bombarded with for over a decade — whether he is on Instagram — the actor responded with rare candour, mixed with his trademark humour.

Clearing the air, Ranbir admitted that while he is not officially on Instagram, he does have a “Finsta,” a private, anonymous account, further explaining the reason for that to be, “You know, because there's such amazing people in the world who do such amazing inspiration stuff. So I do want to follow them”. He added, “Because I'm an actor, I didn't want to officially be on Instagram. Then I have a responsibility to really show myself off to the world. And I felt that I already have a medium which is acting and in movies. And that's enough for me to show myself to the world.”

His honesty was met with cheers, prompting Ranbir to lighten the moment further. “You see, I’ve answered this question so many times and I always have a different answer. It may not be the truth,” he joked. “But I have to come up with a different answer because otherwise I’d seem boring because it’s been 10 years and I’ve always been asked this question.”

In one of the most heartwarming takeaways, Ranbir revealed that he once made a reel with his daughter for his Finsta, though the clip remains unseen by the world. “Actually, in my Finsta account, I did make a reel with my daughter. But I have no followers, so it’s just for the effort,” he said.

Alia Bhatt then jumped in with a playful complaint of her own. “He wouldn’t even let me follow him,” she laughed. “He’s like, no, because if you follow me, everyone will follow me. So I’m like peeking into his phone. He’s got like all of two reels on his Finsta account that only he and maybe two people would see. Alright, well, we’ll work it out.”

On the work front, Ranbir Kapoor has a packed slate ahead. He is gearing up for Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Love & War, co-starring Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal. He will also be seen in Nitesh Tiwari’s Ramayana, featuring Sai Pallavi, Yash and Sunny Deol. Additionally, the actor is reportedly associated with Dhoom 4 and is expected to return in the Animal sequel, Animal Park.

With this candid confession, Ranbir’s elusive online persona becomes even more intriguing — and fans may now be more curious than ever about what really goes on inside that secret Finsta.
