In addition to being a celebrated actress, Mrunal Thakur is also a photographer that not many know about! Though she hasn’t shared her clicks on her social media, she likes to capture moments by herself. Recently, she opened up about her love for photography and revisited her childhood days of learning the skill.
“I love photography. Not many know about this. I have clicked a few photos, but I’m quite hesitant to upload them. But there will come a time when I will showcase my talent when it comes to photography. I got myself a camera, and it’s a huge deal for me,” she shares.
Sharing insights from her childhood, Mrunal adds, “When I was undertaking photography lessons during my childhood, I would only click with a Nokia X6. At that time, I didn’t have the finances or the guts to ask my Dad that I want a camera, which is expensive.”
Now that Mrunal has put across her love for photography, revealing that she has several clicks under her eye, her fans and admirers would surely like to see her vision soon! Meanwhile, the actress is basking in the positive response of her recently released film, Son of Sardaar 2, her first full-fledged commercial entertainer.

In the winding... Read More
In the winding gullies of 70s and 80s Mumbai, when the infamous Swimsuit Killer breaks out of Tihar Jail, a determined police officer must track him down at all costs. Loosely inspired by a true story, this tale of determination and sheer grit unfolds into an epic cat-and-mouse chase. Netflix’s latest quirky drama of an unlikely hero cop, Inspector Zende, arrives September 5.
Starring the ever-versatile Manoj Bajpayee as Inspector Madhukar Zende, and Jim Sarbh as the charming trickster and notorious “swimsuit killer” Carl Bhojraj, the film is directed and written by Chinmay D. Mandlekar. It also features Bhalchandra Kadam, Sachin Khedekar, Girija Oak, and Harish Dudhade in pivotal roles. Inspector Zende blends crime, comedy, and nostalgia — transporting you to a time when gut instinct trumped gadgets and relentless determination was a cop’s greatest weapon.
Producer Om Raut shares, “Inspector Zende’s story is one that deserves to be seen, remembered and celebrated. A gripping chase that’s as entertaining as it is inspiring, and most essentially, it was my father’s dream to make a film on Inspector Zende. Bringing this film to life with Netflix has been an incredible journey. Producer Jay Shewakramani adds, Netflix’s support for distinctive, true-spirited stories and their ability to take them to audiences across the world make them the perfect partner for this film. We’re excited for viewers to meet Inspector Zende, an unlikely hero with an unforgettable story.”
Ruchikaa Kapoor Sheikh, Director of Original Films, Netflix India shares, "Inspector Zende flips the classic cop-versus-criminal story on its head, deftly blending comedy and crime to deliver something truly unexpected. Inspired by true events, the film marks the Hindi directorial debut of Chinmay D. Mandlekar, who brings a grounded sense of place and perspective to the storytelling. With Manoj Bajpayee and Jim Sarbh leading the charge, the film bursts with personality, supported by a versatile ensemble cast. At Netflix, we’re continually drawn to stories that celebrate heartland heroes and victories woven into the fabric of our culture and history."
Inspector Zende is a salute to old-school sleuthing and jugaadu (resourceful) justice. It’s the tale of an ordinary man who cracked an extraordinary case.

Ranbir Kapoor backs supply chain startup Prozo: Bollywood star’s new investment sparks buzz in tech world
Actor-entrepreneur... Read More
Actor-entrepreneur Ranbir Kapoor is making headlines once again—this time not for his blockbuster movies but for a bold investment move in the startup world. The Bollywood heartthrob has invested an undisclosed amount in Prozo, a tech-enabled, full-stack supply chain company, further expanding his business footprint.
The Gurugram-based startup announced the development revealing Kapoor's latest venture into India’s growing backend infrastructure ecosystem. Already known for his involvement in ventures such as ARKS and Mumbai City FC, Ranbir's investment in Prozo signals his growing interest in companies that fuel the backend engine of India's booming consumer brands.
Founded in 2016 by Dr. Ashvini Jakhar, a former Naval doctor and McKinsey consultant, Prozo has built an impressive footprint in the supply chain space. It serves a wide range of clients including B2B, D2C, and marketplace brands, offering warehousing, freight, and fulfilment solutions on a unified tech platform. Dr. Jakhar, the startup’s founder, shared his excitement, saying, “Ranbir brings creative depth and strategic thinking. His belief in reliable operations mirrors our ethos, and we’re excited to build with his support.”
Ranbir Kapoor, too, elaborated on why Prozo stood out to him as an investor, and shared, “Every brand today needs speed, consistency and adaptability...Prozo’s systems give brands that edge. I’ve seen how great execution builds trust—and Prozo is enabling that behind the scenes.”
This investment comes at a time when Prozo is looking to expand its warehousing network into new cities and offer tailored services to quick commerce brands and MSMEs across India. Interestingly, Indian cricket captain Rohit Sharma also invested in Prozo back in June this year, joining the growing list of public figures tapping into the startup’s promising potential.
Meanwhile, on the entertainment front, Ranbir Kapoor is fully booked with high-profile projects. He’s currently busy filming Love & War, starring Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal, slated for release in the first half of 2026, alongside the much-awaited two-part epic Ramayana, with the first instalment expected to hit theatres during Diwali 2026. Kapoor also has Animal Park, the sequel to Animal, lined up with director Sandeep Reddy Vanga, although active production on that project is reportedly on pause for now.
With this latest entrepreneurial step, Ranbir Kapoor continues to balance his stardom with sharp business acumen, proving yet again that he’s much more than just a leading man on screen.

EXCLUSIVE: Check out the ROCKING first look of Hrithik Roshan vs NTR in the War 2 dance number, 'Janaabe Aali'
Yash Raj Films (YRF)... Read More
Yash Raj Films (YRF) has finally released the glimpse of the massively awaited Hrithik vs NTR dance off, ‘Janaabe Aali’! It is going to be an EPIC WAR on the dance floor as two of India’s best actors and dancers, Hrithik Roshan and NTR, take on each other in this battle of swag. The track is composed by Pritam Chakraborty, sung by Sachet Tandon and Saab Bhattacharya, with lyrics by Amitabh Bhattacharya.
Blockbuster producer Aditya Chopra, who is known for disruptive thinking when it comes to mounting tentpoles of India for over 30 years now, is bringing back his ‘Kajra Re’ (Bunty Aur Babli; 2005) and Dhoom 3’s (2013) ‘Kamli’ music strategy for War 2’s ‘Janaabe Aali’. He has decided not to release the full song online to preserve the magic of experiencing this once-in-a-lifetime moment of seeing Hrithik and NTR dancing with and against each other, ONLY for the big screen.
YRF wants to bring people into theatres to watch War 2 and experience the magic of seeing Hrithik and NTR dancing together on the big screen, just as it is supposed to be consumed. Aditya Chopra had earlier preserved the best song of Bunty Aur Babli, ‘Kajre Re’, pre-release and people were blown away seeing it in theatres. He had also kept all the songs of Dhoom 3 away from online release and audiences went crazy to watch them in theatres. ‘Kamli’ exploded and went on to become a global chartbuster.
Directed by Ayan Mukerji, the blockbuster YRF Spy Universe’s War 2 also stars Kiara Advani as the female lead. The film is set to release on August 14 in Hindi, Telugu and Tamil. This will be the second exciting YRF film of the season after the romantic saga Saiyaara became the surprise blockbuster of the year.

Warina Hussain is now Hira Warina: Actress announces name change with a spiritual twist
Bollywood actress... Read More
Bollywood actress Warina Hussain, who made a striking debut in the 2018 romantic drama Loveyatri opposite Aayush Sharma, has officially changed her name. The actress took to Instagram on Wednesday to announce that she will now be known as Hira Warina — a transformation she says is “rooted in numerology and guided by spirit.”
Sharing the update with her followers, the actress wrote, “HIRA WARINA - I've officially changed my name to Hira Warina. A decision rooted in numerology and guided by spirit. New chapter. Same essence. Just more aligned than ever. To those who've stayed close, your love means more than you know.” Adding a touch of her signature quirk, she signed off the post with: “But always, Yours truly, Alien.”
Ahead of the announcement Hira aka Warina officially returned to social media after a mysterious months-long hiatus that left fans wondering about her whereabouts. Her return, paired with the name change, suggests a personal reinvention and perhaps a professional comeback in the making.
Warina — now Hira — shot to fame with Loveyatri, produced by Salman Khan. Her elegant presence and natural charm garnered praise from audiences and industry insiders alike. Though she’s remained largely low-key since her debut, she made a memorable appearance in the hit item song "Munna Badnaam Hua" from Dabangg 3, further solidifying her screen appeal.

Whether this transformation is the start of a new cinematic phase or a personal realignment, one thing is certain — Hira Warina is back, and she’s making sure all eyes are on her.

YRF’s Hrithik Roshan - Jr NTR starrer War 2 Certified UA16+ by CBFC; with runtime of 02 hours 53 minutes 24 seconds
In a major update for... Read More
In a major update for fans eagerly awaiting one of the biggest action spectacles of the year, Yash Raj Films’ WAR 2 has officially received its certification from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) in India. The highly anticipated action thriller has been awarded a UA16+ certificate, indicating that viewers under the age of 16 are advised to watch the film under parental guidance due to intense action sequences and thematic content.
Starring Hrithik Roshan and NTR Jr., and directed by Ayan Mukerji, WAR 2 is a continuation of the adrenaline-fueled spy universe that YRF has been steadily building with films like Pathaan, Tiger 3, and the original War.
The film has an officially certified runtime of 2 hours, 53 minutes, and 24 seconds, making it one of the lengthier entries in the YRF Spy Universe. This extended runtime suggests a packed narrative likely filled with high-stakes action, globetrotting set pieces, and the much-awaited face-off between Hrithik and NTR Jr., both of whom play pivotal roles in this cinematic universe.
The UA16+ rating is notable — while UA (Unrestricted Public Exhibition with Parental Guidance) is common, the added age-specific guidance indicates that WAR 2 may push the boundaries of stylized action and intense themes more than its predecessors. With Ayan Mukerji at the helm — known for his visually rich and emotionally layered storytelling — WAR 2 promises a fresh directorial vision combined with blockbuster-scale entertainment.
The film is expected to be a tentpole release for YRF and a major box office draw, especially given the pan-India appeal of its cast. With Hrithik reprising his role as the suave superspy Kabir and NTR Jr. entering the franchise in a highly anticipated role, WAR 2 is poised to be a cinematic showdown of epic proportions.

Vir Das REVEALS that he was offered Rs. 8 lakhs for his role in Love Aaj Kal: "I was the most EXPENSIVE background extra in history"
Vir Das had an... Read More
Vir Das had an interesting conversation with Mayank Shekhar of Mid-Day where he spoke about many aspects, including his Bollywood career. At one point, he opened up on what made him take an inconsequential role in the Saif Ali Khan-Deepika Padukone starrer Love Aaj Kal (2009).
Vir Das said, “I really needed cash as I was very cash-strapped. That’s when I was offered Love Aaj Kal. I was informed that I was required for just one scene and would be relegated to the background in other scenes. I said, ‘I’ll take it. I need money right now’. Director Imtiaz Ali, who’s a very nice guy and who had seen my stand-up act before, to his credit, warned me, ‘Vir, I am telling you. This is not much (of a role). This is just 1 or 2 scenes on paper and then you’ll be around’.”
Explaining what his role was in the movie, Vir revealed, “If you watch, I have one scene in the movie and in the song ‘Can We Twist’, there’s a dude dancing on this side of Saif and there’s a dude dancing on that side of Saif. One is me and the other is Kavi Shastri, who’s now my co-director. We met on the sets of Love Aaj Kal.”
When asked how much he was paid for it, Vir replied, “I was the most expensive background extra in history (laughs). I got put up in London and I got paid Rs. 8 lakhs, man!”
He continued, “One of the two girls in Illuminati Productions was like, ‘We should have Vir in the movie’. So, somebody batted for me, after which Imtiaz was nice. Meanwhile, I had given auditions for Delhi Belly (2011) and Badmaash Company (2010) before I left to shoot for Love Aaj Kal in London. I was in London and was wondering, ‘What am I doing here? I am like the bouquet in the background’ (laughs)! Then my agent called me at 3 am and told me that I had bagged Delhi Belly. He told me, ‘I am going to get you a great deal’. I replied, ‘Do not negotiate. Whatever they offer, just take it’. I came straight out of Love Aaj Kal and shot for Delhi Belly after two months.”

Aamir Khan intervenes in Coolie release: Makes direct call to PVR-Inox, seeks premium showcasing ahead of War 2 clash
In a move that’s... Read More
In a move that’s ruffled more than a few feathers in North India, Aamir Khan has unexpectedly involved himself in the Coolie (Hindi) release strategy - despite doing a mere extended guest appearance in the film.
The extended cameo, pitched as a goodwill gesture toward Rajinikanth, was done by Aamir Khan for free. But now, Aamir has reportedly called PVR-Inox boss Ajay Bijli directly, aggressively requesting premium showcasing for Coolie across the country, and has even pushed the multiplex chain to do a marketing tie-up with the Rajinikanth starrer in North India. The call has left the PVR-Inox team stunned. “Aamir has no financial stake in Coolie. This wasn’t expected,” said a source close to the matter to Bollywood Hungama.
Industry insiders believe this is less about friendship and more about business. War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan, NTR Jr., and Kiara Advani, and backed by Aditya Chopra’s YRF, is being positioned as the next mega franchise event. Caught in the middle is PVR-Inox, now walking a tightrope between two giants: YRF and Sun Pictures. The phone call from Aamir, insiders say, has caused nervous murmurs within the exhibition chain, given his long-standing relationship with Ajay Bijli and a history of last-minute interventions.
What should have been a straightforward release has now turned into a battleground of egos, leverage, and legacy. And as always in Bollywood, the real show begins off-screen. Interestingly, both Aamir Khan and NTR Jr. are doing a film on DadaSaheb, and the off-screen battle makes things even more intense.

Hansika Motwani deletes wedding photos with Sohael Khaturiya; adds to divorce rumours
Popular actress... Read More
Popular actress Hansika Motwani has set the internet abuzz after fans noticed that she has deleted all her wedding photos with husband Sohael Khaturiya from her Instagram account. The move has intensified ongoing rumours that the couple may be heading for a separation.
Hansika, a well-known name in South Indian cinema and television, had put her love story and wedding celebrations in the spotlight through her reality series Hansika’s Love Shaadi Drama. The show documented her dreamy proposal, grand pre-wedding festivities, and the lavish fairytale ceremony that took place in 2022, making headlines across the entertainment industry.
Following their wedding, the couple moved into a new residence together, sharing glimpses of their marital life with fans. However, according to recent reports, Hansika Motwani has now shifted back to her parents’ home and is reportedly living separately from Khaturiya. While neither party has issued an official statement, the sudden social media clean-up and her alleged living arrangements have only added fuel to the speculation.
Adding to the mystery, Sohael Khaturiya — who has been inactive on social media for the past two years — is said to have changed his profile picture to private. This, combined with the removal of wedding-related posts, has left fans concerned about the status of their relationship.
The marriage had already faced public scrutiny when it was first announced. Hansika and Sohael became the subject of online trolling due to Khaturiya’s past, as he was previously married to one of Hansika’s close friends. Despite the criticism, the actress remained unfazed at the time, focusing on her new journey and openly sharing her happiness with her followers.
As of now, there has been no confirmation from either Hansika or Sohael regarding the rumours of a split. Fans, however, have been quick to express their support for the actress, flooding her recent posts with messages of love and concern.
Whether the deletion of the photos is a personal decision unrelated to the status of their marriage or a sign of trouble in paradise remains to be seen. Until the couple addresses the speculation, the buzz around Hansika Motwani’s relationship will likely continue to dominate entertainment headlines.

SHOCKING: Vir Das on how life changed after 'Two Indias' controversy: "My phone was off for four months. There was no work…I booked a flight to London and had no memory of it. I YELLED in the plane…"
Vir Das faced a major... Read More
Vir Das faced a major controversy in 2021 when his video, ‘I Come From Two Indias,’ received a lot of hate from a section of netizens. During an interesting conversation with Mayank Shekhar of Mid-Day, the actor-comedian opened up like never before on shocking changes in his life after this episode.
Vir explained why he shifted to Goa and why he decided to return to Mumbai, “You can’t write stand-up in Goa. For that, you need to know the pulse of the audience. In Goa, it seems like the day is 37 hours long! Time slows down. What I like about Goans is that everybody, who shows up from the outside, is running from something (smiles). They are trying to deal with something in life and hence, they have come and settled in Goa. Goans are non-judgmental about it. They have seen people in all sorts of tragedies. But then I realized it was time to stop running and come back.”
When asked what he was running away from, Vir replied, “Dude, I had no work for a year and a half after the ‘Two Indias’ controversy. My phone wasn’t ringing. I thought I’d rather be in Goa, work on myself and write.”
Vir Das explained, “There were zero phone calls. If it did ring, it wasn’t a happy phone call (laughing). It would be like someone shouting, ‘Kahan hai tu? Tujhe dhund lunga main’. After that, my phone was off for four months. There was no work. Then, I worked on Vir Das: Landing. It jumpstarted everything.” The Netflix special won the Emmy Awards and gave a huge boost to Vir Das’ career.
Vir Das then shared another horrifying story which happened after the ‘Two Indias’ controversy, “I woke up on a flight that I thought was from Singapore to Mumbai, but it was London-bound. I had put up a last-minute show in London; we had sold a thousand tickets. I myself changed the flight, bought my ticket and checked myself in. And then I woke up on the flight and for two hours, I had no idea how I got on that flight. It was my 186th show that year.”
Vir added, “I was told that the flight was heading to London. I yelled, ‘No, this flight is to Mumbai’. When a brown man with a beard starts yelling about a new destination for the plane, everybody knows that the situation needs to be handled (laughs)! But for the life of me, I couldn’t figure it out for two hours. And you can’t feel bad for being disoriented in the first class (laughs).”
He further said, “I had to go to my therapist and explained her that I have blocked out 72 hours. She told me, ‘You’ve been on the road for way too long’. This was in the post ‘Two Indias’ phase where (performing in) India wasn’t an option. That’s how I ended up doing 186 shows abroad.”
