Explained: Why 2023 will be a gamechanger for Shah Rukh Khan

The Badshah of Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan has been away from the silver screen for almost four years as he was last featured in Aanand L Rai's Zero, which was a box office debacle. In recent years, SRK's films have performed below the mark as his last bonafide hit was Happy New Year, which released in 2014. Post that movies like Raees, Dilwale, Jab Harry Met Sejal and his last movie Zero, garnered mixed reviews from fans and industry experts.

However, after a gap of four years, the megastar of the Hindi film industry is gearing up to give us a triple treat as not one or two but three films featuring SRK will hit the screens in 2023, which are Pathaan (25th January), Jawan (2nd June) and Dunki (22nd December). And these films are expected to be gamechangers for the megastar due to these reasons...

Collaboration with blockbuster filmmakers

For all his three films, SRK has joined hands with blockbuster filmmakers. While Pathaan is directed by Salaam Namaste, Bang Bang and War helmer Siddharth Anand, Jawan marks the Bollywood debut of Tamil director Atlee, who delivered box office spinners in the form of Raja Rani, Theri, Mersal and Bigil. For Dunki, the actor has collaborated with Rajkumar Hirani, who delivered memorable films like Munnabhai MBBS, Lage Raho Munnabhai, 3 Idiots, PK and Sanju. Well, the combo of SRK with these filmmakers, will surely set the box office on fire, isn't it?

Pan-India appeal

Out of his three films, Pathaan and Jawan will have a pan-India release. While the Sidharth Malhotra directorial will also be released in Tamil and Telugu, the Atlee actioner will hit the screens in the dubbed versions of  Malayalam, Kannada, Tamil and Telugu. The wide release of these films will help them to get a great boost at the ticket windows.

Big-ticket experience

The common factor between these three films is that they are masala entertainers and worth your time and attention. While Jawan and Pathaan are set stylish actioners with grand scale, Dunki is expected to be a trademark Hirani film with an ample dose of humour and entertaining elements.

Oscars 2021 adds in-person UK hub for international nominees amid travel concerns during pandemic

With less than a month until showtime, the 93rd Oscars are taking another pass at the script. Show producers Steven Soderbergh, Jesse Collins and Stacey Sher remain determined to have an i n-person ceremony on 25 April in Los Angeles but told nominees on Tuesday in a virtual meeting that they’ve added a British hub after some backlash from nominees about international travel restrictions. The main event will still take place at Los Angeles’ Union station which will include a red carpet component but they are planning something special for the UK location. The show is also working with local broadcast affiliates around the world to provide satellite links for other international nominees. They said they are not totally ruling out Zoom but are hoping it doesn’t come to that. Although plans and requirements remain fluid, attendees have been told they’re expected to quarantine for 10 days prior to the show. And everyone is being told to bring a mask, even if the show is being designed...

In conversation with Christopher Doyle, cinematographer of Wong Kar-Wai cinema: How we react to spaces energizes the film

The New Yorker critic Anthony Lane described the cinematography of Christopher Doyle as “a snake — savouring the air of the streets.” Across the Atlantic Ocean, on BBC , he is credited with “changing the look of cinema”. Doyle’s “anti-Hollywood” aesthetic, associated with the streaks of thick, luminous paint in Wong Kar-wai’s films, have a striking and lasting visual vitality. It has often been described as “post-modern” — though what that means exactly is everybody’s guess. My guess is the reliance, in his images, on feelings over narrative, on style over substance — the kind that skyrocketed post-World War II artists like Mark Rothko into fame. Rothko would just paint fields of colour, and people would stand and weep in front of his large, enveloping canvases. The effect of Doyle’s imagery is not much different.  For all his artistry, Doyle is flippant, moony, and charming. During an e-mail exchange produced below, edited for length and clarity, Doyle warns, “I think you s...
