Brittany Snow considers herself lucky to have got married before lockdown

Actress Brittany Snow got married to Tyler Stanaland in March, and she feels extremely lucky to have tied the knot before isolation orders were put in place due to the COVID pandemic.

“In early March, before we knew how much we’d miss hugs and live in our sweatpants, I got to marry my favorite person. The whole world shut down a few days later and we were stunned at the timing. We knew we felt incredibly lucky to have found each other but we had no idea how lucky it would be to get married right before a monumental time in our history,” Brittany wrote on Instagram.

Along with it, she shared a few pictures of her wedding day, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

Despite several hurdles, the couple had a perfect celebration.

“Everything that could have gone wrong, went wrong that day… but it was absolutely and impossibly perfect. I knew on that day, more than ever before, there was no one else I’d rather hold my hand while in the middle of a (life) hurricane. I love you @tylerstanaland. You’re my dream come true,” she added.

Kenneth Branagh: New normal won’t be abnormal

The whole world is trying to adapt to the new realities in the post-COVID-19 era, and Oscar-nominated filmmaker Kenneth Branagh feels that the new normal will not be as “abnormal as people fear”.

As cinemas remain closed in several places around the world, the pandemic is changing the way people consume talent, with OTT emerging the big winner.

“It’s significantly changing it right now,” Branagh said while talking about the future of the movie industry after the pandemic.

“(The truth is ) your guess is as good as mine. When the ban is lifted, will you rush back to see a movie in a theatre? Or has your life made you think ‘I rather like home entertainment’. I personally want to get back to the movies. But I don’t know how widespread that will be. If there is risk involved, of course, people will be cautious and if that happens, it will change things. But I believe that the new normal won’t be as abnormal as people fear,” he explained.

Branagh’s own film “Artemis Fowl”, which was planned for a theatrical release, went the digital route due to the disruptions caused by the virus crisis. The movie was released in India on June 12 on Disney+ Hotstar.

“It just became inevitable for this film… From my beginnings with the movie, which was to read the book in the company of my nephews who said you got to make this film, this is before anybody talked to me about it from Disney, to all the way to now those same nephews saying ‘when can we see it?’… When they heard it was going on Disney Plus, they were very excited. So I’m glad that a movie went to family audiences in these circumstances with its energy, its velocity, and its sense of adventure,” he added.

Branagh is credited for translating several works of literature into cinematic gems — from Shakespearean classics to superhero comic books to Agatha Christie whodunit to fantasy stories. His filmography is filled with critically-acclaimed projects, including “Henry V”, “Much Ado About Nothing”, “Othello” and “Hamlet”, “Murder On The Orient Express”, “Thor” and “Cinderella”.

Talking about his evolution, he said: “Evolution for me is to try and be quicker to find what is the essential point of something and trying to reduce that to its essence and make it as tight, short and rich as possible. So, it’s, I guess, heading towards a simpler approach to storytelling that doesn’t mean that it cannot be complex. But your entry point is something very direct, simple, honest, and universal.”

Mukesh Chhabra, the director of late Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s last film “Dil Bechara”, has taken to social media to reminisce the day they had begun shooting a couple of years ago.

“9th July, today we complete exactly 2 years from when we started the shoot in Jamshedpur ! Sab Badal Gaya (how everything changed)” tweeted Mukesh Chhabra on Thursday.

Sushant Singh Rajput passed away in Mumbai on June 14, a month ahead of the release of his last film.

“Life, indeed, is seri-real. 2 years ago, July 9th, 2018, was the first day of Sushant and Sanjana, becoming Manny and Kizie in front of the camera, on set in Jamshedpur. My life since that day has never been the same for a second. Kizie & Manny truly believed there never will be a greater love than their’s, but they love all of you, all over the world have shown us? It really does come close. It feels like a long, warm embrace,” the actress wrote on Instagram.

Directed by Mukesh Chhabra, “Dil Bechara” is the official remake of the 2014 Hollywood romantic drama “The Fault in our Stars”, based on John Green’s popular novel of the same name.

The film is slated to release on an OTT platform on July 24.

Fans remember Sanjeev Kumar on his 82nd birth anniversary

The legendary Sanjeev Kumar would have been 82 today had he been around. He was only 48 when he passed away on November 6, 1985.

The late actor won the National Award twice, for his roles in “Dastak” and “Koshish”. Born on July 9, 1938, as Harihar Jethalal Jariwala, Sanjeev Kumar forayed into Bollywood with the film “Hum Hindustani” in 1960. He has delivered memorable performances in films like “Anubhav” (1971), “Koshish” (1972), “Aandhi” and “Sholay” (1975), “Shatranj Ke Khilari” (1977), “Pati Patni Aur Woh” (1978), “Nauker” (1979), and “Angoor” (1982).

Throughout Thursday, Twitter was abuzz with netizens paying tribute to the legendary actor, who won the hearts of millions with his acting skills, warm smile and expressive eyes.

“Birth anniversary of a legend. Sanjeev Kumar, the most versatile actor. His charm, his elegance, the eyes… gold!” shared a user.

“Happy birthday Sanjeev Kumar. An actor who could act merely through his eyes. My top favorites will be — Sholay, Trishul, Angoor, Koshish, Devata, Aandhi, and Naukri. What are your favorites?” expressed another user.

“Watching Angoor makes you realize what a big loss Sanjeev Kumar’s early death has been for Indian films! #SanjeevKumar acted in genres ranging from romantic dramas to thrillers. He did not mind playing roles that were non-glamorous, such as characters well beyond his age,” wrote another user.

“#SanjeevKumar was an iconic actor who began his career with Hum Hindustani and went on to play leading roles in several hit movies. He never hesitated to play challenging roles. He played the role of a mute person in iconic movie Koshish…His movie Anokhi Raat is among my favorite movies. ‘Oh re taal mile nadi ke jal mein Nadi mile Sagar mein’ is an all-time favorite song. ‘Meri jaan mujhe jaan na kaho, meri jaan’ is another great song from his movie Anubhav, sung by #Geetadutt,” recalled a fan.

“Tribute To My Favourite Actor Sanjeev Kumar Ji On His 82nd Birth Anniversary. A Versatile Actor Who Can Play Every Difficult Role Like A Boss. Unfortunately, The Actor Who Played Many Elderly Roles, Left This World Just At Age Of 48. But He Will Be Remembered. I Became His Fan After Watching His Film Like Mausam, Arjun Pandit, Shatranj Ke Khiladi, Sholay, Manchali, Aandhi, Etc. And His Charismatic Smile Cannot Be Forgotten. My Tribute To The Legend On His Birthday. Om Shanti. #SanjeevKumar #TributeToLegend” tweeted another fan.
