Rajiv Thakur’s 4-Hour Prosthetic Transformation: From Comedy to 80-Year-Old Professor in a Sci-Fi Drama
Kapil Sharma Fame Rajiv Thakur Stuns as an 80-Year-Old Professor — Makers Reveal 4-Hour Prosthetic Journey
Mumbai, 13 November 2025: Rajiv Thakur, widely loved for his comedy brilliance on Comedy Nights With Kapil Sharma, has taken a surprising and powerful leap into serious acting. In the Hindi science-fiction drama ‘Mano Ya Na Mano – Anything Is Possible’, he portrays an 80-year-old college professor, a character that demanded sensitivity, emotional depth, and complete transformation.
To achieve the aged look, Rajiv underwent a grueling four-hour prosthetic makeup process every day. The transformation video, recently shared by the makers on a leading social media platform, is grabbing attention across the internet — with fans and industry insiders praising Rajiv for delivering one of his most intense and emotionally resonant performances.
Rajiv, known globally for his comic timing and memorable characters, steps into a completely opposite zone here — silent, measured, and thought-provoking. The character arc takes him from age 40 to 80, capturing decades of wisdom and vulnerability through expressions rather than loud dialogues.
Director Yogesh Pagare revealed how challenging the role was:
“Rajiv is known for comedy, but this character needed stillness and emotional silence. The prosthetic process took more than four hours daily, yet Rajiv stayed focused and patient. His dedication made the character come alive.”
‘Mano Ya Na Mano – Anything Is Possible’ stars Hiten Tejwani, Rajiv Thakur, and Shikhaa Malhotra, and is the official Hindi remake of the Hollywood cult classic ‘The Man from Earth’, written by iconic science fiction writer Jerome Bixby.
The film unfolds entirely in one single location, driven purely by dialogue and performances, as a man reveals a mind-bending secret — that he has lived for 14,000 years and stopped aging after 40.
Written and Directed by Yogesh Pagare, the film is produced under the banner of SCI FI Indian Films in association with Falling Sky Entertainment, with Vijay M. Jain as Producer and Richard Schenkman & Eric D. Wilkinson as Co-Producers.
The film released on 7th November 2025 and is streaming exclusively for members on the SciFiIndianFilms YouTube Channel, allowing audiences to experience this unique blend of science fiction and human emotion at the comfort of their screens.

The first poster of their upcoming film Durlabh Prasad Ki Dusri Shadi has been officially unveiled, confirming that the viral images were part of this heartwarming romantic comedy. The film is now set to release in cinemas on 19th December 2025.
The poster presents Sanjay Mishra and Mahima Chaudhary in a charming and quirky visual—seated opposite each other against the backdrop of a scenic hill station.

The first look makes it evident that the film explores chemistry that is both effortless and mature—something rarely seen in mainstream Hindi cinema.
Durlabh Prasad Ki Dusri Shaadi marks a refreshing shift in storytelling—celebrating companionship and the courage to begin again. Directed by Siddhant Raj Singh under the banner of Eksha Entertainment, the film is produced by Ekansh Bachchan and Harsha Bachchan, with Ramit Thakur serving as co-producer. The story and screenplay are written by Prashant Singh. Alongside Sanjay Mishra and Mahima Chaudhary, the film features Vyom Yadav, Pallak Lalwani, Pravin Singh Sisodia and Shrikant Verma in significant roles, contributing to the film’s humour and emotional strength.

With its unique storyline, powerful performances, and soulful music, it is poised to be one of the most refreshing family dramas of the year.

Zindagi Rukti Nahi… Main Bhi Nahi’: Kamya Punjabi Makes a Powerful Statement in Me No Pause Me Play
Actor Kamya Punjabi makes a powerful statement in the newly unveiled poster of Me No Pause Me Play, touted as India’s first Hindi feature film on menopause. Backed by Digifilming and Mirrro Films, the film explores an issue rarely depicted on screen — the emotional and physical journey of women during menopause — with an empowering message at its core: “Zindagi rukti nahi... main bhi nahi!”
The poster features Kamya in a determined, forward-moving stance, set against the imagery of a large golden clock — a symbolic representation of time, change, and renewal. The visual, bold yet introspective, reflects the film’s central theme of self-acceptance and strength in the face of life’s transitions.
Directed by Samar K. Mukherjee and written and produced by Manoj Kumar Sharma, Me No Pause Me Play also stars Deepshikha Nagpal, Sudha Chandran, Manoj Kumar Sharma, Amiee Misobbah, Karan Chhabra & Aman Verma in pivotal roles. The film is inspired by Sharma’s widely appreciated book of the same name, which captures the unspoken experiences of women navigating menopause — a topic often brushed under the rug in Indian households.
Speaking about the film, Kamya Punjabi says, “Menopause is a natural part of every woman’s life, yet it’s treated like something to be hidden. With Me No Pause Me Play, we’re giving that silence a voice. It’s about courage, acceptance, and realizing that this phase isn’t an end — it’s a new beginning.”
Through its story, Me No Pause Me Play aims to spark open dialogue about women’s health, emotional well-being, and identity — subjects that remain largely underrepresented in mainstream cinema. With screenplay and dialogues by Shakeel Qureshi and Manoj Kumar Sharma, and cinematography by Akram Khan, the film seeks to blend social commentary with emotional storytelling.
Set to release in theatres on November 28, 2025, Me No Pause Me Play positions itself as a bold step toward destigmatizing conversations around women’s health and aging — a cinematic reminder that life doesn’t pause, and neither do women.

Rangeela’ Trailer Out: A Journey of Love, Dreams, and Cinema Returns in 4K Glory!
A Journey of Love, Dreams, and Cinema — ‘Rangeela’ Trailer Brings Back 90s Magic in 4K!
Mumbai, November 10, 2025: The trailer of the timeless romantic musical Rangeela has been unveiled in a brand-new 4K restored version, bringing back the magic of the 90s while captivating today’s Gen Z audiences with its charm, music, and emotion.
The trailer opens with Urmila Matondkar’s fiery dialogue, “Mujhe padh likhkar clerk nahi banna hai, mujhe actress banna hai,” capturing the spirit of dreams and ambition. Aamir Khan’s Tapori charm lights up the screen with his iconic line, “Kisi seth ki gaadi mein kutta bankar biscuit khane se accha hai, apun sadak par masti karega,” while Jackie Shroff’s suave film star persona completes the emotional triangle between a dreamer, a street-smart friend, and a romantic hero.
The 2-minute 33-second trailer beautifully weaves together the film’s most iconic elements — the glitter of the film industry, the energy of Mumbai’s streets, and glimpses of the superhit songs “Yaaro Sun Lo Zara,” “Tanha Tanha,” and the evergreen “Rangeela Re.”
Interspersed between scenes are the lines “A Journey of Love, Dreams, and Cinema,” “Relive A.R. Rahman’s Iconic Music,” and “The Cult Romance of the 90s is Back,” perfectly capturing the film’s nostalgic yet timeless appeal.
Notably, the new trailer has struck a chord not only with fans of 90s cinema but also with Gen Z viewers, who are discovering the film’s vibrant storytelling, fashion, and music as a cultural bridge between eras.
Set to re-release on November 28, 2025, Rangeela marks 30 years since its original 1995 release. Presented in 4K HD with immersive sound, the film has been restored and will be theatrically re-released by Ultra Media under their Ultra Rewind initiative, offering a completely new visual experience with enhanced clarity and audio brilliance.
Speaking about the trailer, Ram Gopal Varma said,
“Even after 30 years, Rangeela feels as fresh and rebellious as the day we made it. It captured Mumbai’s heartbeat — its chaos, its dreams, and its madness — and that emotion still feels timeless.”
Sushilkumar Agrawal, CEO, Ultra Media, added,
“With Ultra Rewind, our goal is to celebrate cinema that shaped generations. Rangeela isn’t just a film — it’s an emotion. The 4K version allows both old and new audiences to rediscover its magic on the big screen.”
Starring Aamir Khan, Urmila Matondkar, and Jackie Shroff, with music by A.R. Rahman, Rangeela returns to theatres nationwide on November 28, 2025, promising to once again paint the big screen with love, dreams, and unforgettable melodies.
Rangeela’s theatrical re-release marks the second project under Ultra Rewind, a special initiative by Ultra Media Group dedicated to restoring and re-releasing Indian cinema classics. Earlier this year, as part of Guru Dutt’s Centenary celebrations, Ultra presented a retrospective of his masterpieces — Pyaasa, Sahib Biwi Aur Ghulam, Kaagaz Ke Phool, Aar Paar, Chaudhvin Ka Chand, Mr. & Mrs. 55, and Baaz — all restored and released in 4K.
Continuing this legacy, Ultra Rewind will bring more timeless classics back to theatres, ensuring India’s rich cinematic heritage continues to shine for generations to come.
