A worthy nod ADVERTISEMENT Vicky Kaushal’s approval of his act in Kill could be worthy for Lakshya for more reasons than one. To begin with, Kaushal’s acting chops are among the finest in the industry. “[Also], he is [veteran action director] Sham sir’s son, so he understands action.
He said [the film] was not just about action. Every punch had a certain emotion [attached to it]. It meant a lot,” said Lakshya, who made his Bollywood debut with the action thriller produced by Karan Johar and Guneet Monga Kapoor.
It also starred Tanya Maniktala and Raghav Juyal. Nikhil Nagesh Bhat’s directorial venture opened to rave reviews upon its July 5 release, and was also appreciated after its OTT release on September 6. Government must act The spike in the cases of online crimes in the aftermath of the digital boom has served as fodder for several filmmakers, including Vikramaditya Motwane, who explores the subject in his next, CTRL.

In the recent past, deepfake videos of actors like Aamir Khan, Ranveer Singh, and Rashmika.
