MUMBAI: To keep you amused on Saturday, we bring you fresh updates from Bollywood industry, read below:

Janhvi Kapoor to get Norwegian honour

Actress Janhvi Kapoor will be awarded 'Arets Stjerneskudd' rising talent of the year by the Norwegian Consulate General here.

Janhvi, who made her debut with Dhadak, will be felicitated on Tuesday at an event organised in association with theatre chain INOX.

Janhvi is excited.

"I made my debut with Dhadak this year. Our film has been seen by audiences across the globe since it released worldwide and many of them including people staying in Norway have seen the film and sent their good wishes via social media. This recognition is a pleasant surprise. I am happy to receive this honour and humbled that they chose me for this honour," she said in a statement.

The evening will also see the screening of two acclaimed Norwegian films including What Will People Say, Norway's official entry for the Academy Awards for 2019. The other is The King's Choice -- a biographical war film that was Norwegian entry for the Academy Awards in 2016.

This is an initiative by the Norway government to promote Norwegian cinema and help build entertainment ties with India. The screenings also coincide with the Nobel Peace Prize announcements. Both the films promote unity and peace.

The event will have Iram Haq from Norway, the director of What Will People Say, and industry veterans including Janhvi's father and film producer Boney Kapoor.

Ann Ollestad, Consul General of Norway in Mumbai, said, "Indian films are being watched around the world now and Norway too has fans of many Indian films and actors. Since 2003, Norway hosts an annual Bollywood festival featuring prominent Indian actors and high profile Norwegian guests.

"Our official entry for Oscars this year was shot in India and has Indian actors in it. We are happy to honour Janhvi Kapoor whose first film has been very successful and the young actor seems to have a promising future in films."

Richa Chadha wants 'Fukrey 3' to be made

Actress Richa Chadha, who rose to fame with her character of Bholi Punjaban in the Fukrey franchise, became nostalgic as the second instalment of the franchise Fukrey Returns completed one year of its release on Saturday.

Reminiscing about the film's memories, Richa said in a statement, "Fukrey is a very special film. I am personally a huge fan of Bholi. She is brave and extremely intelligent and it has been amazing to play her twice. I have made lifelong friends...thanks to Fukrey. The success the film has had has been surprising and rewarding."

It seems the actress wants to take her Bholi Punjaban character ahead as she wrote to the film's director Mrigdeep Singh Lamba that it's time a third film should be made.

"I definitely do hope to work again with the team again on part 3 of the film, it would be amazing to reunite for the third time. I think we definitely deserve part 3 of Fukrey", she added.

Richa also posted a few photographs with the film's cast including actors Ali Fazal, Varun Sharma, Pulkit Samrat and Manjot Singh on social media. She is currently dating her Fukrey co-star Ali.

Backed by Excel Entertainment, Fukrey Returns is a sequel to the 2013 hit comedy film Fukrey.

Dharmendra turns 83, Hema calls him 'everlasting love'

On veteran actor Dharmendra's 83rd birthday, his wife and evergreen actress Hema Malini wished him saying he is her "everlasting love".

"Happy Birthday to my everlasting love, the dearest father to my darling girls and proud grandfather to Darien and Radhya. I thank all the numerous fans who are sending their greetings to me on Dharamji's birthday and I will definitely convey their wishes to him," Hema wrote on Twitter on Saturday.

The duo starred together in many films including Raja Jani, Seeta Aur Geeta, Sharafat, Sholay and Naya Zamana. They have two daughters Esha and Ahana.

Esha also took to social media to wish her father. She posted a photograph from Dharmendra's birthday celebrations and captioned, "Happy Birthday papa."

In the shared photograph, Dharmendra can be seen sharing smiles with Hema, Esha and her husband Bharat Takhtani.

Actor Randeep Hooda called Dharmendra "one of the most underrated and entertaining actors".

Dharmendra is one of the most celebrated actors of Bollywood. He has completed over 60 years in the industry and has entertained audiences with movies of all genres -- from the intense Bandini and Satyakam to potboilers like Raja Jani and Pratigya, and as a comic artist with perfect timing in Sholay and Chupke Chupke.

Singer Mika Singh released in UAE

Singer Mika Singh, who was arrested after a 17-year-old Brazilian model allegedly lodged a complaint about Mika sending inappropriate pictures, was released following the intervention of the Indian Embassy.

Mika was released on Thursday night following the intervention of the Indian Embassy in Abu Dhabi, Navdeep Singh Suri, the Indian Ambassador to the UAE, told Gulf News.

Suri said Mika is expected to appear in a court later, reports the leading publication.

The envoy said although Mika was arrested in Dubai, the police took him to Abu Dhabi as the complainant was holding an Abu Dhabi residence visa.

The singer was arrested in the UAE on Thursday for sending lewd pictures to the Brazilian teenager.

Tarun Gahlot on his Kedarnath experience...

Tarun Gahlot, who plays a significant role in the recently released film Kedarnath, spoke about his journey.

He said, "My character’s name is Kailash, the Pithu leader who fulfils the demands of Pithus by negotiating with the Mandals who is a very honest man. While Sushant is the Pithu, my role is to constantly support his honesty and fight for what is good and in favour of All."

On his experience of working with Sara, he shared, "Of course, I've had a beautiful experience working in this film, it's been a very rejuvenating experience to have shot at Kedarnath, and the journey itself has been spiritual which synced with the vibe of the film.

Sara is a very humble person, for a debutant she was very professional, mature and a very positive energy on set. Working with her has been a wonderful experience, though my scenes were very limited with her, but Sara used to fold her hands and say Namaste, stand in the queue for food along with the rest of the team. I realised through the shoot that she is genuinely a very humble and respectful human being.”

He further added, “Working in this film has been very challenging because we have worked in extreme conditions, shot in freezing cold in the rain in Kedarnath and then shoot in Bombay in extreme heat.

I would like to thank Abhishek sir and my casting director Mukesh Chabbra for this wonderful opportunity and to the whole team for being the family they have been. Please go experience this beautiful spiritual love story and I wish the best for our film.”

On his journey, he stated, "I started my career in Bombay in 2006 as a model, after being a successful model I realised my heart was in acting so I joined FTII, I have worked on several films including Tezaab 2 as a lead with N Chandra which is yet to release, Breathe for Amazon prime videos, the Test Case for ALTBalaji and the upcoming Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar under the YRF banner with Dibakar Banerjee."
