What is Section 84? As per a digital repository of all Central and State Acts ‘Section 84’ deals with ‘Act of a person of unsound mind’, and states that ‘Nothing is an offence which is done by a person who, at the time of doing it, by reason of unsoundness of mind, is incapable of knowing the nature of the act, or that he is doing what is either wrong or contrary to law.’
In the recent past, Amitabh Bachchan was seen in quite a few films in roles related to law. In Runway 34, Chehre, Badla, but it is Pink that immediately comes to mind for the topic that the film tackled and the way it was presented. One wonders, in Section 84, which side of law would Amitabh Bachchan’s character stand. Whichever, it would be, but he stands tall.
Director Ribhu Dasgupta expresses, “I feel happy, blessed, and honoured to collaborate with Sir again.

Indian cinema legend Amitabh Bachchan will headline Ribhu Dasgupta’s courtroom drama thriller “Section 84.”
The film is produced by Reliance Entertainment, Film Hangar and Saraswati Entertainment in association with Jio Studios.
This film will mark Bachchan and Dasgupta’s third collaboration after the critical success of Sony Entertainment Television India’s 2014 miniseries “Yudh” and 2016 film “Te3n.”
Bachchan’s last release was Sooraj Barjatya’s “Uunchai,” one of the few box office hits in a 2022 that was otherwise dull for Bollywood.
Reliance Entertainment has been active in the distribution space recently, releasing Steven Spielberg’s Oscar contender “The Fabelmans” in India, which it also coproduced, and striking a deal for the international distribution of “Faraaz,” “Bheed” and “Afwaah” with T-Series and Benaras Mediaworks.
Dasgupta said: “I feel happy, blessed and honored to collaborate with Sir [Bachchan] again. Looking forward to it.”

In a trailer that sells an experience more like 2001: A Space Odyssey than your standard music documentary, the first look at Brett Morgen’s David Bowie spectacle Moonage Daydream has now arrived ahead of the Cannes premiere. Set for a theatrical and IMAX release this fall from Neon, it looks to be a fitting tribute for the legend, with the Jane and Montage of Heck director working on the project for half a decade.
The documentary “illuminates not only the life, but also the genius of Bowie, who worked across several disciplines—most notably music and film—but also explored art forms throughout his life including dance, painting, sculpture, video and audio collage, screenwriting, acting and live theatre,” says the official synopsis. Featuring Bowie’s own voice and 48 songs from his vast library, Morgen was given complete access to the artist’s personal archives and master recordings.
See the trailer below.

Spanish director Juanjo Gimenez’s “Out of Sync” (“Tres”) – his first outing since the Oscar-nominated short “Timecode,” winner of Cannes’ Palme d’Or for best short film – came into this year’s Official Selection at the Venice Film Festival buzzing ahead of its world premiere.
In the film, sound designer C – played by Marta Nieto, the lead in Rodrigo Sorogoyen’s Oscar-nominated short “Madre” and its eponymous feature follow-up – spends countless hours alone recording sound effects, editing and mixing. There, she finds refuge from the pains of the world outside, like broken relationships and a growing distance with her mother. That is, until her own hearing drops out of sync, forcing the workaholic to take time off and reevaluate much of her life.

A father uses his obsession with the movies to help his daughter when she is unjustly suspected of murder
It turns out that cinephilia is a productive use of time after all. When his computer is searched, Li Weijie, protagonist of this perky Chinese thriller, has watched 838 films in a year – and he uses his superior knowledge of the seventh art to get his family out of a pickle. Chinese but living in northern Thailand, he scrapes by as an internet technician, but his daughter finds herself at the centre of a murder investigation after she accidentally kills the son of a police chief who was trying to blackmail her with smartphone-filmed rape footage.
A remake of the 2013 Malayalam film Drishyam, this big Chinese hit ultimately doffs the cap to Korean cinema: it is Jeong Keun-seob’s 2013 film Montage that inspires Li when he has to provide his family with an alibi.

Principal photography began on Monday in Glasgow, Scotland, on “Blind,” a Bollywood remake of the eponymous 2011 Korean action thriller.

"Memories go back to the mid night mass that we attended in Kolkata at the Church where in time we shot TeeN .. the sanctity, the silent observation of the purity of the occasion has remained all along .. as does the sacredness of all the other religious celebrations," Big B wrote in a blog post.

Talita Maia, an actress, former friend and roommate of Harvey Weinstein accuser Jessica Mann, testified today that at no time did Mann appear to be disturbed or upset about Weinstein, even on the night Mann alleges she was raped by the Hollywood producer while Maia was just outside his bedroom door.
And in what was another critical hit against prosecution witnesses, model and social media influencer Claudia Salinas — who Weinstein accuser Lauren Young says helped lure her to Weinstein’s hotel room and then locked her in a bathroom with the naked mogul — flatly denied the event ever happened.
“Absolutely not,” said Salinas, a social media influencer in the fashion arena. “I would never do that. I would never close the door behind anyone.” Salinas denied that she’d ever been alone with Young and Weinstein in a hotel suite, and that she had never seen Weinstein naked, contrary to Young’s testimony last week.

“Frozen 2” iced out all its competitors in China this weekend, sliding out in front of the pack to top the local box office with a $53.2 million debut – the best ever for a Disney animated film in the Middle Kingdom. “Frozen 2” made more in three days than the original “Frozen” made during its entire Chinese theatrical run ($48 million) in 2014.
It was also the third-highest opening weekend ever for an animated film in China.
“Frozen 2” currently has viewer ratings of 9 and 7.3 out of 10 on the Maoyan and Douban platforms, respectively. Musicals have historically not been very popular in China, something reflected in the comments of those who gave less favorable reviews. “After five minutes there’s a short music video, after another 10 there’s another long one! Has Disney gone crazy?” wrote one on Douban.
Awkwafina’s “The Farewell” was initially scheduled to debut last Friday as well, but it was pulled at the last minute,...

Tipped to be a thriller, the film is believed to be an official remake of Korean thriller Blind about a blind woman who gives testimony in a hit-and-run case, and is then forced to confront the killer on her own. Apparently, Nayanthara plays a cadet at a police academy, who loses her eyesight after a car accident. The makers haven’t officially confirmed whether the film is a remake, however, going by the title font which is written in Braille, it’s safe to assume that Nayanthara plays a blind character in this film.

The internet can be a pretty weird place at times.

Recently, legendary actor Amitabh Bachchan fell prey of celebrity death hoax that has been going on and around via different social media platforms. A report on Facebook claimed that the actor, who recently starred in ‘Pink’ and ‘Te3n’ was found dead with a picture of Amitabh Bachchan lying down and his actor son Abhishek Bachchan is seen rushing him to the hospital.

It seems contemporary leading ladies tend to feel insecure about Big B even now. We had the case of Deepika Padukone who after Piku "forgot" to invite Mr Bachchan for the success party. Now in director Ribhu Dasgupta's Te3n, Vidya Balan's presence is billed as 'Guest Appearance'. Says a source from the product, "Vidya knew from the start that Te3n revolved around Mr Bachchan's character. She agreed to come on board because of her old relations with producer Sujoy Ghosh but insisted she be billed a 'guest' in the plot." And never mind if she is in the film from beginning to end. It's not enough for Ms Balan to be a pivotal character.

Yes, the scooter has seen better days. So has John Biswas. There was a time when he knew joy.His grand-daughter Angela who was left to John’s care while his father went abroad. In a merciless twist of fate Angela is kidnapped for ransom and killed.
Debutant director Ribhu Dasgputa’s shimmering portrait of distant discontent is about John’s atonement,...

On paper, Ribhu Dasgupta's Te3n is a no brainer. A thriller set in Kolkata featuring three of India's most respected actors, produced by thriller specialist Sujoy Ghosh (Kahaani), and based on Korean kidnap movie Montage, it feels like all of the elements for success are there. Unfortunately, the film moves a bit too slowly for its own good and fails to make good use of the assets in its possession, leaving the audience less thrilled than they should be. Amitabh Bachchan is John Biswas, an elderly gentleman whose granddaughter was abducted and killed eight years ago. John has never forgiven himself for her death and has spent the last eight years digging for any clue he can scare up but mostly coming up dry. Every...

This tentative remake of a 2013 Korean thriller puts Amitabh Bachchan among a trio hunting a lost girl
Riffing, Se7en-like, on the Hindi word for three, this remake of 2013’s Korean thriller Montage splices together a disparate trio hunting a long-gone girl: grieving grandfather Amitabh Bachchan, guilt-racked priest Nawazuddin Siddiqui, no-nonsense cop Vidya Balan. We’re watching Bollywood respond to grimtertainments such as True Detective – hence director Ribhu Dasgupta’s lugubrious, lights-off aesthetic – while wondering whether Te3n (pronounced “theen”) has taken on too much baggage. The first half proceeds at such a crawl, even the songs sound like somebody’s last gasp. Yet Dasgupta’s playing a reasonably intricate long game. The pulse quickens with a mid-film ransom drop, and skilled playing shepherds us through the twisty second hour. A touch tentative – the work of an industry straining to mature in line with its audience’s tastes – but creditably committed to a new realism.

Audiences will soon witness screen veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan revisiting the whodunit genre as grandfather John Biswas in upcoming thriller, TE3N.
Talking about the genre and his role he says, “Indian cinema has always been making films like these. It’s just that, given the stage I was at earlier in my career, perhaps nobody thought of doing something like this with me. But now there is an opportunity because of my age, which enables me to play an older, weaker character. You don’t expect him to be able to do something and that’s basically what the outline of the character is. John Biswas is a middle-class man, he is Anglo-Bengali and there has been a tragedy in the family. He only has his wife and son. His family doesn’t live with him, but he’s keen to find out what happened and how. I don’t...

The Udta Punjab conflict between the film makers and the censor board seems to be getting uglier by the minute. After most of the industry has come out in support of the film's release, we now hear that veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan has also joined them. In fact at a recently held press meet for his film Te3n, Bachchan stated that killing creativity can kill the soul of artists. Responding to a question posed to him during the press meet Bachchan said, "I am not quite aware of what the issue is. I have been reading about it. All I can say is that don't try and kill creativity. If you kill creativity, you kill the soul and that is all that we have." Further explaining his stance Bachchan added, "I know that there are rules and regulations... That's something that the government has to decide. But as an artiste and a creative person,...

Two years ago, it was announced that Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Chitrangda Singh will be coming together for a movie. The filmed titled Babumoshai Bandookbaaz was supposed to go on floors in 2014 but didn't due to several issues in the production department. In December 2014, the film was scheduled to start shooting in Kolkata followed by Bolpur and Burdwan in West Bengal. But reports suggested that there were many issues in the technical team department and due to delay in payments, the production was halted. It looked like that the film was completely scrapped and probably won't see the light of the day.

Vidya Balan is the champion of the female-centric genre in Bollywood and broke the trend that only movies with male actors can set the cash registers jingling at the Box Office with her movies The Dirty Picture and Kahaani.
Having won numerous awards worldwide for her acting skills, the 38-year-old actress also completed the duties of a jury member at the 2013 Cannes Film Festival.
TE3N (Three) centers around John Biswas (Amitabh Bachchan) who lost his granddaughter, Angela, in a tragic kidnapping incident that scarred him and his wife Nancy forever. But eight years later, while the world has moved on, John hasn’t given up his relentless quest for justice. He continues to visit the police station where he’s shunned and ignored daily. He continues to revisit the spot where Angela breathed her last, hopelessly looking for clues. The only person whose help he seeks is Martin Das (Nawazuddin Siddiqui), an ex-cop turned priest,...

Anurag Kashyap may have his issues with the censor board-what with his production Udta Punjab and directorial venture Raman Raghav 2:0 both awaiting censor clearance. But his colleague and associate Ribhu Dasgputa who helmed the TV series Yudh which Kashyap produced, has sailed through censor board unscathed with his first feature film Te3n. A source from the censor board says, "We viewed the film and found it powerful and relevant. The content is hard hitting, yes. And because the theme is crime and investigation a UA certificate was warranted. But to cut even a single moment would have harmed the film." Much relieved and happy director Ribhu Dasgupta says, "As filmmakers our intention is always to make the best of films. And while we make a film we never think of how the censor board will react to it. We do what is best for the film. But now after...

Composer Vishal Dadlani feels too much is being made the pathetic spoof video on Lata Mangeshkar and Sachin Tendulkar by the virtually unknown Tanmay Bhat. Reasons Vishal, "Sachin and Lataji are virtually deities in their spheres. A tasteless joke is not going to affect their aura." The feisty composer, currently ruling the charts with his compositions for the Amitabh Bachchan - Vidya Balan starrer Te3n feels there are double standards at work in how the entertainment industry has reacted to Tanmay's "joke" and the way they react to other similar spoofy attempts by comedians. Argues Vishal, "Principles are only worth anything when we stand by them even when they're inconvenient. When Kiku Sharda was jailed for a joke, we stood against the absurdity of it all. Suddenly, we are no better than those who were baying for Kiku's blood." Vishal wonders if the censor board is right in assuming that audiences lack a uniform maturity.

Amitabh Bachchan, who’s synonymous with his booming baritone, has sung in many of his films over four decades. Once again, he has lent his voice to a soulful song for the upcoming psychological thriller, TE3N, releasing on 10th June.
The song titled Kyun Re, which has been penned by Amitabh Bhattacharya and composed by Clinton Cerejo, is pivotal to the movie. The film directed by Ribhu Dasgupta also stars Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Vidya Balan.
Talking about the song, Mr Bachchan said, “After listening to tunes and the words that Amitabh narrated me, I felt to do it. We went ahead and did it.”
Adding, “It’s always very frightening for me to sing a song because I am not a singer and especially when you have people like Clinton Cerejo (music director) sitting six inches away from you. Clinton did not want (the song) to be sung whole-heartedly.”

Being one of the few actors, whose voice has become a trendsetter of sorts, it isn't new to have Amitabh Bachchan lend his voice for the songs of his own films. In fact, the megastar has done the same even for films which doesn't star him. And now the upcoming thriller Te3N will once again have Amitabh crooning for it.
Amitabh Bachchan will be singing a heart touching number titled 'Kyun Re', composed by Clinton Cerejo and penned by Amitabh Bhattacharya. We also hear that the said track is very pivotal to the plot.

While everyone else was quite hesitant to enter the house, Vidya Balan boldly led the way and went inside to explore the house! TE3N is...
