Have you heard? Amitabh Bachchan engages with trolls; Disha Patani denied entry at airport

Amitabh Bachchan

Bbuddah hoga terra baap

Amitabh Bachchan recently sparred with trolls on X who mocked him for burning the midnight oil on social media. One user advised him to "sleep on time, or else longevity won't last". Big B shot back with a dollop of sarcasm: "Thank you for talking about my death, by God's grace". Another troll referenced his film Shahenshah (1988), suggesting he should sleep given his advanced age. The Bbuddah Hoga Terra Baap (2011) actor retorted, "One day, you'll grow old too, if God wills". The 81-year-old actor's razor-sharp wit has only won over his fans. With a busy line-up, including Section 84, Kalki 2898 AD's sequel, and Brahmastra Part 2: Dev, as well as the next season of Kaun Banega Crorepati, the angry man has no time to stop.

Jet set, nowhere to go

Disha Patani

Disha Patani was denied entry at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport-T2 after she forgot her passport. The actor got stopped at the terminal for failing to show her identity proof. A viral video captured her returning to her vehicle in disappointment. As she walked back, a photographer asked, "Kya hua?", to which she smiled and replied, "Kuch nahin." Laughing at herself, she hopped into her car, clearly taking the mishap in good humour. Fans had a field day on social media, joking about the celebrity slip-up, with one user commenting, "She is just a normal human being." On the work front, Disha's last film was the Tamil actioner Kanguva (2024), and she is reportedly set to make her Hollywood debut soon. She will also star in Welcome to the Jungle alongside Akshay Kumar.

Learning from the seniors

Karan Johar has expressed deep admiration for his friend Shah Rukh Khan, whom he considers an elder brother. Karan revealed that SRK has played an instrumental role in shaping his life and career, crediting him for his success. He also praised SRK's children, Aryan and Suhana, for their dedication to work and for carving out their own paths beyond their father's legacy. KJo hopes his own children, Yash and Roohi, grow up to be like Aryan and Suhana, admiring their strong work ethic and pure hearts. Karan's bond with SRK is like family.
