Sonakshi Sinha


Sonakshi Sinha has reportedly been told to appear before the Moradabad Court on April 25 in a 2019 fraud case. The Dabangg actor was accused of cheating, criminal conspiracy and breach of trust by an event organiser named Pramod Sharma. Apparently, she was paid Rs 28 lakh to appear as the chief guest for an event in New Delhi, but she didn't turn up. It is said that on the day of the event, her team asked for a change of venue, but the organisers refused. Consequently, she skipped it. After a few failed attempts to recover the refund, the event organiser filed a complaint against her.

Janhvi's yearly b-day ritual

Janhvi Kapoor opted to celebrate her 25th birthday (March 6) in Tirupati with her girl gang. The Roohi actor, wearing a pink and green sari, shared some pictures from her visit to the temple, on social media yesterday. For several years now, it has become a ritual for Janhvi to visit the temple on her special day. As for partying, we hear the celebrations with industry friends will take place soon after she's back to the bay.

Tanya eyes Bollywood

Like several South actors who have forayed into Bollywood, Tanya Hope is optimistic that she will land Hindi films when the time is right. Furthermore, she has some Bollywood connections. Her 2019 Tamil crime thriller, Thadam is being remade in Hindi with Mrunal Thakur stepping into her role. Interestingly, she reprised Yami Gautam's character from Vicky Donor for the Tamil remake, Dharala Prabhu. "I personally believe that if the movie is good, then why not remake it?" asks Tanya, who is currently working on a Tamil film titled Golmaal. (No, it has nothing to do with Rohit Shetty's blockbuster franchise.) Asked about her foray into Hindi cinema, she says, "I believe what is meant for you will come to you at the right time. My Bollywood debut will happen when it has to, when the time is right."

‘Excited about industry reunion'

With most of the COVID-19 restrictions being eased, it's time for the annual awards season to begin. While Salman Khan and Riteish Deshmukh will host the upcoming IIFA Awards at Yas Island in Abu Dhabi, Varun Dhawan is the first actor to be signed up to perform at the extravaganza. The Coolie No. 1 actor enthused, "Performing at IIFA is always a sheer delight. We all missed [the awards] during the pandemic, and now, it's back with a bang. I am excited for this incredible industry reunion at Yas Island in Abu Dhabi."

Like his Dadaji

Taimur Ali Khan is beyond doubt the most popular star kid on the Bollywood scene today. The li'l munchkin is the new Chhote Nawab in tinsel town. His aunt Saba shared an image of him in a kurta-pyjama, relaxing in the chair, and wrote, "My boys... Chhote Nawab... Mahsha'Allah!

Lounging like a royal, na? (sic)" She also shared a collage of her nephew and her father, the late Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi, in a similar pose, and wrote, "Royalty… inherited!!" True that.

Meet Doctor Priyadarshan

Priyadarshan has a reason to cheer. The veteran filmmaker was conferred with the Doctorate of Letters (Visual Communication Contributions) by the Hindustan University of Science and Technology, Chennai on Saturday. Priyan says, "I am most proud I got it with Kris Gopalakrishnan (founder of Infosys)." Priyan's last release was Marakkar: Arabikadalinte Simham, which won the 67th National Award for Best Feature Film.

A busy year ahead for Kirti

Kirti Kulhari has reportedly completed shooting for her debut production venture, Nayeka. She also doubles up as the lead actor of the dark comedy thriller helmed by Ajoy Kiron Nair. Kirti plays a struggling actor who accidentally gets caught in a crime. A cat and mouse chase ensues and what happens next forms the crux of the story that also features Sharad Kelkar and Zakir Hussain in pivotal roles. Even as post-production is underway, Kirti has signed five films, slated to commence in the coming months.

Conscientious citizens

Kunal Kemmu and Soha Ali Khan had a first-hand experience of rash-driving and road rage on Sunday morning when they were out with daughter Inaaya Naumi and their friends for breakfast. Sharing a picture of the car, the Golmaal Again actor wrote, "This car driver was driving recklessly. Not just honking and trying to overtake, but [the driver] suddenly [hit the brakes] in front of my car. He didn't just risk his own safety, but also jeopardised the safety of everyone in my car as I had to brake really hard to avoid a collision and that was traumatic, to say the least for the children in my car." Kunal also shared how the driver abused them, even after seeing women and children in his car. By the time Kunal could take out his phone to record his antics, the driver got into his car and zoomed off. The actor signed off with a request to Mumbai Police "to look into this obnoxious and pathetic behaviour".

Vivaan's big dream

Vivaan Shah's big ambition is to work with father Naseeruddin Shah. Though they shared credits in his debut, 7 Khoon Maaf, they didn't have any scene together in Vishal Bhardwaj's directorial venture. Vivaan says, " I so wish to work with my father in a film. I know how wonderful it is to work with him because I have done that on stage."
