For their fans, their wedding was an absolute dream come true, and ever since, they haven't stopped turning the town red with their adorable antics. Fans are overjoyed that the soon-to-be parents are sharing glimpses into their pregnant journey.

Luck By Chance directed by Zoya Akhtar, written by Zoya Akhtar and Javed Akhtar, was produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani and marks 15 years today since it was released.

However when the first picture recognizing him as the new Don appeared on social media, several people criticized and ridiculed him for taking Shah Rukh Khan's place in the franchise. The actor has now discussed the same thing and described it as "natural."

He has penned lyrics of several chart busters and among them also includes Dard-e-Disco from the Shah Rukh Khan- Deepika Padukone starrer Om Shanti Om. Akhtar however revealed that director Farah Khan demanded some pretty meaningless lyrics for the song.

Veteran screenwriter and lyricist Javed Akhtar has said that the iconic Bollywood film ‘Sholay’ was not based, as was rumoured, on the classic western ‘Once Upon a Time in the West’, which was directed by Sergio Leone.

The actor was popular for his films like Aradhana, Mera Naam Joker, Gambler, Amar Prem, Charas, Vishwanath, Akhiyon Ke Jharokhon Se, Karz, Kranti, Naseeb, Yaarana, Sadma, Betaab, Dil, Bol Radha Bol, Hum Hain Rahi Pyar Ke, Anjaam, and Mr & Mrs Khiladi, among others.

The court has now found enough grounds to proceed against Javed Akhtar for as per Kangana Ranaut’s complaint for criminal intimidation and gestures or acts intended to insult the modesty of a woman.

The legal battle between Kangana and Javed Akhtar seems to be never ending. The Manikarnika actress had filed a case against the lyricist under Indian Penal Code sections 506 (criminal intimidation) and 509 (insult to the modesty of a woman).
