Singer Kanika Kapoor, who recovered from Covid-19 3 weeks back and has been at her Lucknow home ever since, seems to be fully enjoying her parents’ company after a rather chaotic time. She took to Instagram to share a photo of all three of them, having their tea together.
“All you need is a warm smile, a warm heart and a warm cup of tea. #familytime #lucknowdiaries #stayhomestaysafe,” she wrote. A number of her industry friends dropped their good wishes in the comments section. Check out the photo below.
Kanika, who returned to Lucknow from London in the second week of March, tested positive for Coronavirus around a week later. She was accused of having escaped the mandatory screening at the airport, and allegedly also hosted a party at a five star hotel in Lucknow. It was only yesterday that she broke her silence on all allegations floating around, and issued a statement. “I travelled from UK to Mumbai on March 10 and was duly screened at the international airport. I travelled to Lucknow the following day on March 11 to see my family. There was no screening set up for domestic flights. On March 14 and 15 I attended a friend’s lunch and dinner. There was no party hosted by me and I was in absolute normal health. I had symptoms on March 17 and 18 so I requested to be tested,” part of her statement read.

Filmmaker Subhash Ghai is using this lockdown to work on his upcoming projects. The director revealed that he has been teaching his film school students one hour daily amid lockdown. Speaking to a daily, the filmmaker revealed that he is already working on the sequel of Khalnayak and is also gearing up for Kalicharan remake, the film which marked his debut as a director.
Ghai said that for the past six to seven months, he has been only working on creating content and is ready with two bound scripts. The sequel to Khalnayak will take the original story forward. The original film featured Sanjay Dutt as Ballu and Madhuri Dixit. The filmmaker will take the story further as Ballu’s character comes out of jail. It was Sanjay Dutt who urged Ghai to pen the sequel. He said that part 2 took them two years to write and it will feature a younger villain with a blockbuster cast just like the original film.
Interestingly, Khalnayak was supposed to be a Hollywood outing with Omar Sharif and Ashok Amritraj as the producers. According to Ghai, he opted out because he did not want to make a film in a language that he wasn’t familiar with. He revealed that he was prepping for an art-house kind of movie with Jackie Shroff and Nana Patekar headlining as the cop and the criminal. The filmmaker said that it just ended up becoming mainstream masala entertainer with Sanjay Dutt as the Khalnayak, a love story, track related to the mother, multiple songs!
Ghai also promised that the sequel will find a connection with the new generation. He also said that they could even work on a six-hour digital series by developing characters since a thriller could engage the audience.
Speaking of his directorial debut Kalicharan, the remake of 1976 drama has a gripping screenplay with the same kind of plot but a new way to present it. Shatrughan Sinha starred as a mighty cop and criminal in the film. He was, at the time, busy doing several villainous roles in the film industry when he was approached for it. Ghai said that NN Sippy was producing and Sanjeev Kumar and Rajesh Khanna’s names had been mentioned. But, the filmmaker insisted that he had written the story keeping Shatrughan Sinha in mind. At first, he turned down the role of another cop film. When narrated to him by Ghai, he loved it. The filmmaker further added that two or three young actors have shown keen interest in the remake over the years.
Khalnayak centered around the escape and attempted capture of the criminal Ballu (Sanjay Dutt) by Inspector Ram (Jackie Shroff) and his girlfriend officer Ganga (Madhuri Dixit). The film released in 1993.
Kalicharan, on the other hand, starred Shatrughan Sinha, Reena Roy, Ajit Khan, Danny Denzongpa, Madan Puri, and Premnath. It released in 1976.

With one couple announcing their separation and another denying a rift amidst loud whispers of differences, Bollywood marriages, like marriages all across the world, are going through trying times during the claustrophobia of the global lockdown.
Actor Gulshan Devaiah has separated from his foreigner wife Kallirroi Tziafeta. When I asked him about it Gulshan confirmed the end of his marriage adding, “Thank you for asking. We are both all right.”
However musician Hiten Soni denied rumours of problems in his marriage with singer Sunidhi Chauhan. When I asked he said, “These rumours are baseless. I don’t know where they are coming from.”
While one wishes Hiten and Sunidhi all the best, disturbing rumours of other marriages in Bollywood being in trouble are gaining momentum.
Is it just a temporary fallout of the constant presence of one another in a locked house? A high-profile celebrity husband says staying together constantly is becoming a problem. “No matter how much one loves one’s spouse one needs time and space for oneself. Luckily we have a large home. What about couples who are locked in one-room and two-room flats?”
This celebrity spouse has a point. Marriages are under strain due to the lack of breathing space for couples. Once the lockdown ends, so will the strain of constant togetherness.

As we complete almost four weeks of lockdown what are your thoughts?
It’s making me think I should change my profession.
Why, and do what?!
Either to become a cook or get into the food business, or get into army or a gun shooting business or into the car or bike racing scene.
Okay then. So how have you been spending your time during the lockdown?
I’ve caught up on my pending sleep for the last two years.. shut off my brain for the first time in ten years. But it has turned back on since the last few days.
So what is your brain telling you to do now?
I am doing some cooking, I’m constantly hungry. I work out so I can eat. I am catching up on some OTT shows.
Your thoughts for your fans during these trying times?
It’s a strange time. I wish I could be there for each one of them.. make sure all have the basic necessities.
What do you feel about the pandemic?
Many generations have braved and fought many things. Some saw and survived the British rule, others dealt with the Partition, they dealt with poverty, epidemics and wars. Our generation’s battle is this, and we have to protect ourselves and our families by not letting the virus get to us, and the way to do it is to stay home. And soon, this too shall pass.
Anything else?
Anything else I say will become serious. I don’t want to burden our people who already are dealing with so much. So consciously trying to tell you the lighter side of my lockdown. We are bombarded everywhere by the troubles accompanying the lockdown. I just want them to smile. And know that I am also locked down with them. We have to smile through this.
Tell your audience about the films you have enjoyed
Kumbalangi Nights, loved it. Trivia- I make a guest appearance in it.
Where?
You have to spot it. Hint: location is a movie theatre. Blink and miss appearance it is.

Manoj Muntashir’s fabulous poetry of patriotism for the song Teri Mitti in the Akshay Kumar starrer Kesari has now been converted into a song celebrating the bravery of the doctors across India fighting the Corona virus. Explaining this trans-creation Manoj says to me in an exclusive chat, “Soldiers are not only those who fight at the border. Whenever our country is in a state of crisis the common people of the country should show uncommon solidarity and behave like soldiers. Come what may they should not leave their battlefront. Hum apne morche pe danttey rahenge.”
Manoj who has in the past penned beautiful songs for films such as Akira, MS Dhoni, Naam Shabana and Baby says the country is fighting an invisible enemy. “And we see the soldier’s character in many essential professions, be it doctors, the sanitizers, the police officers or the small grocers who are determined to keep their shops open…all of these have become soldiers now.”
Speaking on how the song happened, Manoj says, “One day I got a call from Akshay Sir (Kumar) about turning the Kesari song on patriotism to a tribute to doctors fighting the Coronavirus. He just kept repeating, ‘They are Gods. We can’t repay the debt we owe them but at least we can acknowledge their contribution.’ I thought that was a great idea. I asked Akshay sir to give me two days. But as soon as we disconnected the phone call and I went out for a walk, all the lyrics for the song came to me and I handed them over to Akshay Sir. He even commented, ‘Tu toh do din baad dene wala ttha.’
Manoj says it’s the beauty of the original composition that inspired him. “The beauty of the original composition by Arko and the singing by B Praak is such that I was inspired. Let me tell you, this was the simplest song to write. I just had to hold the emotions in my hand, and the song wrote itself out. When I saw the sacrifices of the doctors, how they have been away from home for weeks and now months combating the virus, how they haven’t picked up their children in their arms for ages for fear of infecting them…these are heart-melting incidents.”
Manoj feels we can never repay the medical profession for their sacrifices. “No, this song is not even trying to repay them for their sacrifices. Nothing in the world can repay them. We don’t have the currency to pay them back. But in this song we’ve shown our love and gratitude for the soldiers in white: Beemar hai jo kis dharm ka hai humse na kabhi yeh bhed hua/ sarhad pe jo vardi khaki tthi ab usska rang safed hua. We just hope the doctors will embrace our song just as the soldiers at the border had embraced the original song.”
