Shah Rukh Khan waived Rs 42 lakhs DCP bill for Deool Band 2,’ reveals director Pravin Tarde

Actor and filmmaker Pravin Tarde has shared a heartwarming story about Shah Rukh Khan's kindness, explaining how the Bollywood superstar supported the team of Deool Band 2 when they were facing financial difficulties.This revelation comes as the Marathi film has become a big hit, earning over Rs 80 crore worldwide and becoming the fourth-highest-grossing Marathi film of all time.

Pravin Tarde revealed that Shah Rukh Khan waived a Rs 42 lakh bill for the DCP (Digital Cinema Package) for Deool Band 2.
During a conversation with Abhijat Marathi Filmy, Tarde explained how the production team had approached Shah Rukh Khan's production house, Red Chillies Entertainment, for the DCP, which was needed for showing the film in theaters.

Initially, the team had set aside Rs 12 lakh for the DCP, but the actual cost was much higher.
Tarde said, "We had budgeted around Rs 12 lakh for the DCP, but the cost came to Rs 42 lakh." With limited funds, they couldn't afford to pay the full amount.

The team approached Red Chillies Entertainment and explained their situation, asking for support because of the film's small budget.
The DCP was ready, but the payment was still pending, which stopped the process.

The issue eventually reached Shah Rukh Khan, who wanted to know more about the project.
Tarde said, "He asked his technical team about it.They told him it was a film made by the creators of Mulshi Pattern.Since Mulshi Pattern was later made into Antim by Salman Khan, Shah Rukh was familiar with their work."

Shah Rukh Khan then asked about Deool Band 2 and was told it was an emotional film that the makers couldn't afford to pay for the DCP.
Tarde recalled, "The DCP was ready but hadn't been handed over because the money was still owed."

After understanding the situation, Shah Rukh Khan decided to help by waiving the fee.
Tarde quoted the actor's words: "Waive off their bill.It's a Marathi film.Give them the DCP.We can handle the payments later.If it's a good film, give them the DCP."

Tarde praised Shah Rukh Khan's gesture, saying the superstar showed great respect for regional cinema.
"For him, the film was more important than money," he said.

Reflecting on the film's journey, Tarde added, "I thank everyone for the success of the film.
Today, it's heading towards the Rs 100-crore mark, and people are appreciating it.But what Shah Rukh Khan did when the film had no future, when no one was sure it would work, will always be remembered.He helped us without any guarantee of success.I will always be grateful to him."

Deool Band 2 stars Mohan Joshi and Snehal Tarde in leading roles, with Mangesh Desai, Sanskruti Balgude, Devendra Gaikwad, Savita Malpekar, and Pravin Tarde in supporting roles.
It is a sequel to the 2015 film Deool Band and explores socially relevant topics like farmer suicides, while looking at the complex relationship between faith and atheism.

Cocktail 2 Movie Review: COCKTAIL 2 is a breezy and entertaining relationship drama

Cocktail 2 Review {4.0/5} & Review Rating  

Star Cast: Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, Rashmika Mandanna  

Director: Homi Adajania  

Cocktail 2 Movie Review Synopsis:  
COCKTAIL 2 is the story of a man and his bond with two women.
Kunal (Shahid Kapoor) is a Delhi NCR based chef who is in a live-in relationship with Diya (Rashmika Mandanna).Both are together for 16 years and are comfortable with the arrangement.They don't feel the need to be married but the society doesn't believe so.They are pestered to get hitched.The wedding season is coming up and both dread that they'll be bombarded with the 'when are you getting married' question.Hence, they decide to escape to Sicily, Italy.At Sicily, they bump into Alisha aka Ally (Kriti Sanon), an old college friend of Diya.Her presence adds to the confusion and madness in their relationship.What happens next forms the rest of the film.

Cocktail 2 movie story review:  
Luv Ranjan's story is in line with his signature style and is dramatic.
Tarun Jain and Luv Ranjan's screenplay is breezy and peppered with highly entertaining moments.There's also an element of surprise at several places.Hence, one might never know where the film would go next.Tarun Jain and Luv Ranjan's dialogues are one of the biggest strengths of the film.The one-liners enhance the impact of several scenes.

Homi Adajania's direction is supreme.
He mounts the film on a grand scale and moreover, he treats the principal characters with aplomb.They look real and people will relate to them or would know somebody in their circle who's like Kunal, Diya or Ally.The film often goes in a zone which might come across as bizarre.But Homi treats it just right and hence, one flows along with the developments in the story.Any other writer or director would have preferred to add scenes of characters fighting or confronting each other.Homi avoids the path completely, adding quirk to such scenes, and it comes across as a breath of fresh air.At the same time, the film is not shallow and a few emotional scenes tug at the viewers' heartstrings.The scene where Ally pours her heart out to Kunal, first in the balcony, and later at the party, are memorable.The finale is lovely.

On the flipside, despite the best efforts of the makers, the film does get a bit silly.
This especially happens in the pre-climax, when viewers might even wonder where the film is heading.Also, Kunal's giving and sacrificial nature didn't come out properly to the fore until it gets pointed out in the second half of the film.

Cocktail 2 Movie Review Performances:  
All three actors have delivered bravura performances.
However, it's Kriti Sanon who steals the show completely.She keeps her act light and vivacious but also adds depth to it.There are scenes where she suddenly switches and she does it seamlessly, clearly showing that she has improved a lot as an actor.After MIMI [2021], this is surely yet another accomplished performance from her.Shahid Kapoor looks dashing and delivers a lovable performance.It looks very convincing that he is the reason for all the madness.He especially hits the ball out of the park.Rashmika Mandanna gets a bit overshadowed.But there's no doubt that she performs her part with sincerity and adds a lot to several scenes.From the supporting cast, Tiku Talsania (Kunal's father) is hardly there initially but leaves a mark later on.Pulkit Samrat does well in a cameo.

Cocktail 2 movie music and other technical aspects:  
Pritam Chakraborty's music is energetic and soulful.
'Jab Talak' and 'Mashooqa' are the best of the lot.'Tujhko' is melodious.'Jaag Se Laaj' and 'Lehar' are well placed.'Tumhi Ho Bandhu' comes at an important juncture.Pritam Chakraborty's background score is in sync with the mood of the film.

Santhana Krishnan Ravichandran's cinematography is breathtaking.
Italy has never been showcased in this manner before.Arvind Ashok Kumar and Bindiya Chhabria's production design is classy.Anaita Shroff Adajania's costumes are very stylish and can become a rage.Akshara Prabhakar's editing is sharp.

Cocktail 2 Movie Review Conclusion:  
On the whole, COCKTAIL 2 is a breezy, entertaining and emotionally satisfying relationship drama that works due to Homi Adajania's supreme direction, witty writing and terrific performances by Kriti Sanon, Shahid Kapoor and Rashmika Mandanna.
Backed by strong pre-release buzz and an excellent opening, the film has all the ingredients to emerge as a successful performer at the box office.

Main Vaapas Aaunga springs a surprise at the box office; Day 7 collections jump to Rs. 2.25 cr, becoming the film’s second-biggest day

Main Vaapas Aaunga has been a pleasant surprise at the box office with its performance during the weekdays. After a quiet opening weekend, the film could have gone down during the week. Instead, it started to grow from Tuesday onwards, which gives hope that its second weekend might be better than expected.

The film starring Diljit Dosanjh opened with Rs.1.28 crore on Friday.It had the usual weekend boost, earning Rs.1.85 crore on Saturday and Rs.2.50 crore on Sunday.On Monday, the numbers dropped as expected, bringing in Rs.1.15 crore.However, what happened after that is interesting.


Tuesday was an offer day, so the jump was expected. Main Vaapas Aaunga made Rs.1.60 crore on Day 5, which is a 39.13% increase from Monday. What’s surprising is that the film didn’t drop after the offer-day boost. On Wednesday, it rose further to Rs.1.80 crore, a 12.50% increase from Tuesday. More importantly, Wednesday’s collections were higher than the film’s opening day figure of Rs.1.28 crore.


The positive trend continued on Thursday.

On Day 7, Main Vaapas Aaunga collected Rs.2.25 crore, a 25% increase from Wednesday. This makes Thursday the second-highest collection day for the film, after Sunday’s Rs.2.50 crore. For a film that started with lower numbers, this is a good sign.


The total collection for the first week is now Rs.12.43 crore.While this is still on the lower side, the growth during the weekdays has changed the perception around the film.The fact that the film showed growth on Wednesday and Thursday, even after the Tuesday offer-day boost, suggests that the audience is appreciating it.


The second weekend will now be important.

If the film continues its upward trend from Thursday, it can do well on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.A good second weekend could add to the film’s total earnings, especially since the weekday performance shows the film hasn’t been completely rejected by the audience.


Here are the daily collections of Main Vaapas Aaunga.

  • Friday - Rs. 1.28 crore
  • Saturday - Rs. 1.85 crore
  • Sunday - Rs. 2.50 crore
  • Monday - Rs. 1.15 crore
  • Tuesday - Rs. 1.60 crore
  • Wednesday - Rs. 1.80 crore
  • Thursday - Rs. 2.25 crore
  • Total-  Rs. 12.43 crore

Eetha teaser attached with Cocktail 2; Shraddha Kapoor seen in an all-new avatar

 On June 16, Bollywood Hungama was one of the first to let people know that the teasers for Rajkummar Rao’s Prahaar – The Ujjwal Nikam Story and Shraddha Kapoor’s Eetha would be included in Cocktail 2.The rom-com came out this Friday, and as expected, both teasers are now part of the Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon, and Rashmika Mandanna film.In this article, we take a closer look at the Eetha teaser.


Eetha stars Shraddha Kapoor as the legendary Marathi Tamasha artist Vithabai Narayangaonkar.

Directed by Laxman Utekar, who is known for Chhaava (2025), the film also features Randeep Hooda and Mohd Zeeshan Ayyub.It is set to release in cinemas on August 28, which is Raksha Bandhan.


The teaser was approved by the CBFC with a U/A 13+ rating on June 17 and has a runtime of 2 minutes and 18 seconds.


The teaser starts with a crowd asking for a performance from a dancer named Eetha.

One would expect a usual entrance for the lead actress.But instead, Shraddha Kapoor appears on screen in a completely surprising way.


Shraddha Kapoor has given many memorable performances, but Eetha shows a very different side of her.

Her dance and expressions stand out, and the teaser suggests she has worked hard to make the character believable.


Even though the film has a Maharashtrian style, it has the potential to grab attention across the country.

And it will definitely be a big hit in Maharashtra.
