There has been growing speculation about the cast of Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, with fans eagerly awaiting more details about the plot and characters. While director Anees Bazmee heightened the mystery by confirming that two endings were shot for the film, Kartik Aaryan may have accidentally given away a significant detail during a recent interview, sparking conversations about Kiara Advani’s possible involvement in the project. Kartik Aaryan on Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3’s Two Endings In a recent interview with Pinkvilla, Kartik Aaryan confirmed that Anees Bazmee chose to shoot two climaxes for Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, but he was quick to highlight that only a handful of people know which one will make it to the final cut. “I think one or two more people know about the actual climax.

In 2012, the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare along with the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting mandated that films depicting smoking scenes need to play anti-smoking ads before the beginning of the film and after the intermission point. The first ad that came into play involved a man named Mukesh Harane who died at a young age due to cancer caused by tobacco consumption. The ads changed at regular intervals and in 2018, the CBFC (Central Board of Film Certification) instructed that an ad, featuring Akshay Kumar and Ajay Singh Pal, be shown in films with smoking scenes. This ad proved to be an exception as unlike other previous ads, this ad wasn’t taken down after a certain point in time. Sadly, after six years, the much popular ad has been replaced. Bollywood Hungama has learned that last month, a decision was taken to discontinue Akshay Kumar’s anti-smoking ad by CBFC. It was replaced by a new ad, showing how quitting tobacco can lead to positive changes in your body with

His death is tied to his connections between Anuj Thapan, Dawood, Bollywood, politics, and property dealings.”
