Film, Theatre, and Media

Sholay won multiple awards beyond just one - it won 7 Filmfare Awards including Best Editing. The film was highly awarded despite being snubbed for major categories like Best Film. So the statement claiming it won only one award is false.

This is FALSE - Sridevi was 13 when she acted with Rajinikanth in Moondru Mudichu (1976), but she played his romantic interest/love interest, NOT his stepmother. The age gap was significant, but the stepmother claim is incorrect. She played a younger woman's role opposite the adult Rajinikanth.

The claim about strict set restrictions for 'Aks' is false. No credible sources or film industry reports support the existence of such extreme security measures during the filming of Aks (2001). Director Rakesh Mehra implementing a ban that even prevented his own brother from entering the sets is not documented in any reliable accounts.

Sanjay Leela Bhansali did NOT write the script of 'Khamoshi: The Musical' (1996) with Amitabh Bachchan in mind. The film starred Manisha Koirala, Salman Khan, and others - not Amitabh Bachchan. While Bhansali may have admired Bachchan, Khamoshi's script was not written specifically for him.

Vinoba Bhave was the first Indian recipient of the Magsaysay Award in 1958 for his work in land reform through the Bhoodan movement. Jayaprakash Narayan and Baba Amte won later (1965 and 1979 respectively). Satyajit Ray never won this award.

Saif Ali Khan played the main lead in the movie 'Hum Tum' (2004). The film was a romantic comedy where he starred opposite Rani Mukerji, and his performance was critically acclaimed.

Anil Kapoor played the lead role in the 2001 film Nayak: The Real Hero, directed by S. K. Balwant. The film was a political drama where Kapoor portrayed a common man who becomes the Chief Minister for a day.

Amitabh Bachchan played the iconic lead role of Don in the original 1978 film directed by Chandra Barot. The film became a cult classic and was later remade in 2006 starring Shah Rukh Khan.

Shah Rukh Khan played the lead role in the 2006 remake of Don, directed by Farhan Akhtar. The film was a modern reinterpretation of the 1978 classic and was successful at the box office.

Shreyas Talpade played the lead role of Iqbal, a deaf and mute aspiring cricketer, in the 2005 film Iqbal directed by Nagesh Kukunoor. The film was critically acclaimed and Talpade's performance was widely praised.

Shah Rukh Khan played the lead role of Rizwan Khan in the 2010 film My Name Is Khan, directed by Karan Johar. The film dealt with themes of Islamophobia and autism, and Khan's performance was critically acclaimed.

Salman Khan played the lead role in the 2010 historical action film Veer, which he also co-wrote. The film was set in colonial India and featured Khan as a Pindari warrior.
