Rishi Kapoor was shooting for Sharmaji Namkeen before the lockdown. The actor’s sudden demise has left the film incomplete, however, producers Ritesh Sidhwani and Farhan Akhtar have decided to complete it and schedule its release in cinema halls. The film stars Rishi Kapoor and Juhi Chawla. It was almost complete with just a couple of days of shoot remaining. A source shared, “Rishi Kapoor was the main protagonist of the film and a major part of it was already shot with only a few days of shooting remaining for the actor.” The source added, “Since Rishi Kapoor’s last project was near completion, Ritesh and Farhan are determined to make sure that the film gets released.”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
