Fact Check: Aamir Khan’s Dr Abdul Kalam biopic trailer is fan-made creation, not an official film
Mumbai: A viral trailer circulating on social media, featuring Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan portraying Dr APJ Abdul Kalam in a biopic, has created a wave of excitement among fans. However, a closer inspection reveals that the trailer is not for an upcoming official film, but a fan-made concept video.
The fan-made trailer depicts the life journey of Dr Kalam, from his humble beginnings in a simple family to his rise as a pioneering scientist and the President of India. The video highlights key moments from his life, including his instrumental role in India's missile program and his inspirational journey toward the nation's highest office. The trailer also showcases the iconic words of Dr Kalam: "Dreams are not what we see while sleeping, dreams are those that do not let us sleep."
The video, which has accumulated over three million views in just four days, begins with a young child gazing at the horizon, foreshadowing his future achievements in the field of missile technology. However, the trailer is not linked to any official production, actor, or studio. It explicitly mentions at the start that it is not an official trailer and is not affiliated with any film studio or production house.
While the trailer has sparked widespread interest, it is important to note that no official confirmation has been made regarding a biographical film about Dr APJ Abdul Kalam.

Punishment for those disrupting assembly proceedings, warns Speaker UT Khader
Belagavi: Speaker U.T. Khader on Friday warned that members who disrupt Assembly proceedings by talking in their seats during debates will be made to sit in the House for an entire day as a disciplinary measure.
The warning came after the Question Hour, when Deputy Leader of the Opposition Arvind Bellad was permitted to initiate a discussion on the development of North Karnataka.
At this point, expelled BJP MLA Basanagouda Patil Yatnal objected, stating that he had been seeking a debate for the past three days but had not been given an opportunity.

Responding to the objection, Speaker Khader said Bellad had already been granted permission and assured Yatnal that he would be allowed to speak at the next opportunity. He noted that even as a serious discussion was underway, several MLAs were speaking among themselves with their microphones on, disrupting the proceedings.
Expressing displeasure over the conduct of members, Khader likened the situation to football, where players receive red, yellow, or white cards for violations. Similarly, he said, the Assembly issues warning cards to members who disturb the House. If they fail to correct themselves despite repeated warnings, they would be required to remain seated in the Assembly hall for a full day as punishment, he stated.
