“Jubilee has been a love story in the making for me ever since I was an assistant director enamored with the world of the movies, even when there wasn’t a story to tell,” said creator and director Vikramaditya Motwane. “While the series is set in that celebrated era of cinema, at its core, Jubilee is a very human story, with narrative themes that will resonate with everyone – which is what drew me to the story in the first place. We’ve painstakingly researched each aspect of the series to remain true to its era. It’s been the most incredible journey made with the support of a terrific studio, with some of the most amazing actors, and with the best possible crew ever. Every day on this series has been a delight and I cannot wait for the world to see the work that we’ve all done.”

Shreyas Talpade reveals story behind Allu Arjun’s popular dialogues ‘Pushpa jhukega nahi’ and ‘Flower nahi, fire hai main’ from ‘Pushpa: The Rise’ | Hindi Movie News
The actor recently revealed some inside stories about the film and its iconic dialogues. Shreyas said that a lot of catchphrases that became popular were ad-libbed in the dubbing booth. Recalling one of the instances, he added that there were a lot of improvisations they did during the dubbing sessions for Pushpa. Originally, the literal translation of Allu Arjun’s famous dialogue was ‘Pushpa jayega nahi’. But to make it more impactful, they made it ‘Pushpa jhukega nahi’. The next thing you know, it has become a rage, Shreyas told the Free Press Journal.
Elaborating further, the Bollywood actor revealed that the iconic dialogue ‘Flower nahi, fire hai main’ dialogue did not exist in the original film. They got it improvised in the Hindi dubbed version and even after a year, people are seen referring to it. According to him, that was indeed the whole purpose; that instead of literal translation, they improvise it into something that retains the essence of the character but is also memorable for the audience.
Shreyas, who was last seen in Kaun Pravin Tambe?, will next be seen playing the role of former Indian Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee in Kangana Ranaut‘s ‘Emergency’.
