Arbaaz Khan shares update about Salim Khan's health: 'He is improving'

Veteran screenwriter Salim Khan was rushed to the hospital last month after he suffered a brain haemorrhage. While no surgery was performed, he was put on a ventilator to stabilize his condition. Amid his health concerns, the Khan family restricted doctors from sharing information about his health. Now, his son Arbaaz Khan has confirmed he will be discharged soon. Arbaaz Khan on Salim Khan’s health Arbaaz Khan addressed the media while leaving an iftar gathering in the city. He said the veteran writer is showing positive signs of recovery. “He’s better now, he’s improving,” Arbaaz told reporters. When asked about when Salim Khan might be discharged from the hospital, he added, “Soon.” The comments mark the first official statement from the Khan family since Salim Khan was hospitalised. "His blood pressure was high, for which we treated him, and we had to put him on a ventilator because we wanted to do certain investigations. Now, the ventilator was put as a safeguard so that his situation doesn't get worse. So it is not that he is critical," Dr Jalil Parkar told reporters. "We did the investigations that were required, and today we have done a small procedure on him. I will not go into the details. The procedure done is called DSA (digital subtraction angiography). The procedure has been accomplished, he is fine and stable, and has been shifted back to the ICU.” Asked whether he suffered a brain haemorrhage, the doctor said, "Unko thoda haemorrhage hua tha, which we've tackled. No surgery is required.” More about Salim Khan Salim Khan, who celebrated his 90th birthday in November 2025, remains one of the most influential figures in the history of Indian cinema.

Sunjay Kapur family

Sunjay Kapur's property case: Patiala HC issues notice on Mandhira's plea

Priya Kapur, who has long been embroiled in an inheritance dispute involving the late Sunjay Kapur’s fortune worth Rs 30,000 crore, faced fresh troubles after Sunjay’s sister Mandhira accused her of coercion. Later, Mandhira also demanded certain documents from Priya. Now, the Patiala High Court has issued a notice on the application. Patiala HC issues notice on Mandhira’s plea The Patiala House Court has issued a notice on an application moved by Mandhira Kapur Smith seeking the production of certain documents from Priya Sachdev Kapur in connection with an ongoing defamation complaint. Mandhira Kapur, the sister of late industrialist Sunjay Kapur, appeared before the court and filed her reply to the defamation complaint lodged by Priya Sachdev Kapur. Along with her reply, she also moved an application seeking directions for the production of certain documents from the complainant. During today’s proceedings, Priya Kapur's senior counsel stated that Mandhira Kapur's application is not valid, according to a post by ANI. The court listed the matter for further hearing and arguments on March 30. The court also granted time to counsel for the proposed accused, Pooja Chaudhary, to file a reply. Senior Advocate Maninder Singh, appearing for Priya Kapur, submitted before the court that the application moved by Mandhira Kapur was not maintainable at the present stage of the proceedings. He stated that he does not wish to file a formal reply but reserves his right to argue on points of law. Mandhira Kapur appeared before the court pursuant to the notice issued to her on the previous date. She filed her reply to the defamation complaint filed by Priya Sachdev Kapur. Advocate Amit Prasad, appearing for Mandhira Kapur, filed the reply along with an application stating that the alleged defamatory words should not be viewed in isolation. Mandhira Kapur has sought the production of certain documents. Counsel referred to a judgment of the Supreme Court in support of the application. Opposing the plea seeking directions for the production of documents, Singh argued that the matter is currently at the stage of notice and not at the stage of charge. Therefore, the application for the production of documents cannot be filed at this stage. The Senior Advocate also submitted that there is no denial of the statement by the proposed accused, Mandhira Kapur. It has not been claimed that the content is morphed or manipulated. Advocate Amit Prasad, counsel for Mandhira Kapur, submitted that the judgment cited by counsel for the complainant is not relevant in the present case, as this is a complaint case. He argued that the judgment relied upon by the complainant applies to cases filed by the State in criminal proceedings. About Priya Kapur’s defamation case against Mandhira Priya Sachdev Kapur has filed a criminal defamation complaint against Sunjay Kapur's sister, Mandhira Kapur Smith, and another individual, alleging that a series of statements made against her across podcasts, social media platforms, media interviews, and republished online content constitute a sustained and deliberate campaign to damage her reputation. The complaint asserts that the impugned remarks contain false assertions, insinuations, and personal attacks presented as established facts, despite the issues being sub judice, thereby causing serious reputational harm. According to the complaint, the material circulated in the public domain advances misleading narratives and allegations aimed at maligning and harassing Priya Kapur through public discourse instead of lawful remedies. Against this backdrop, Mandhira Kapur Smith made public remarks to the media questioning Priya Kapur's conduct and motives.

Dhurandhar The Revenge

Dhurandhar 2: Song Aari Aari teases Arjun Rampal-Ranveer Singh's face-off

The biggest face-off of the year is about to be unleashed between Arjun Rampal and Ranveer Singh in Dhurandhar The Revenge. Ahead of the highly anticipated release of the second installment, the makers revealed a fiery Aari Aari track, offering a thrilling peek of the epic clash between Rampal's ISI Major Iqbal and Singh's Hamza Ali Mazari - the ultimate showdown that the audiences have been eagerly waiting to witness ever since the Dhurandhar storm began. Ranveer Singh-Arjun Rampal face-off The stakes are high. Fury is real, and intensity has skyrocketed. Arjun Rampal is an actor of expressions, someone who disappears behind the character, lives it and weaves a performance that is uniquely his own. And this time, the actor pushes the limits once again by performing brutal hand-to-hand action sequences, extending the terror beyond the cold stares, chilling dialogues and silences that define his character arc. If Dhurandhar was a limited exploration of ISI Major Iqbal, the sequel is a reckoning! On one hand, Aari Aari song shows Rampal in his villainous best, sending chills down the spine with his facial closeups, smoking a cigar while bearing bruises on his face, and a chilling smile that flaunts his golden tooth. On the other hand, Rampal adds to his layer by performing action sequences. Previously, his admirers have seen him getting explosive with action in Ra. One, Om Shanti Om, Crakk, Rana Naidu Season 2 and more - but this time, Rampal pushes the stakes by going bloody, edgy and menacing all at once. And you’re Still Not Ready for what’s to unfold with Arjun Rampal's ISI Major Iqbal!  Dhurandhar re-releases in theatres Jio Studios and B62 Studios are bringing the global blockbuster Dhurandhar back to the big screen in a rare and exciting theatrical re-release across approximately 500 screens worldwide, including 250 screens across India beginning March 12 (today) and 250 overseas, beginning March 13.

Priyanka Chopra

'Don't like staying in s**t': Priyanka Chopra about leaving Bollywood

Priyanka Chopra began her journey in the West with her role in Quantico back in 2015. After establishing herself in the global entertainment space, the actor has now opened up about leaving Bollywood at the peak of her career and taking a leap, and about dealing with tense relationships in the Hindi film industry. Looking back at that phase, Priyanka said she doesn’t like to “stay in s**t." Priyanka Chopra on leaving Bollywood Recently, Priyanka was seen with Amanda Hirsch on her Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast, where the Citadel actress spoke about her decision to venture into the West. When asked about why she decided to explore the American film industry, Priyanka said, “When I was working back in India, I started feeling limited… I wanted to be able to see what else was out there. Besides Mindy Kaling and Aishwarya Rai, there were very few female or male Indian actors in Hollywood. And I was like why don’t we have that representation. It made me think of myself as that girl who was in the 9th grade in America, where nobody looks like me… I didn’t think about it (much) at that time, but as someone who was starting to seek work in Hollywood, I thought where do I stand? How do I begin?… It came from the need to want and see what the possibilities were there.” During the chat, she was also questioned about “tense relationships with some of the stuff going on in India with the movie scene”. Priyanka responded, “Nothing is an easy ride. We all have battles that we have to handle. I am someone who just doesn’t like staying in the s**t because then you get used to the smell. I am a big believer in pivoting. When life gets tough, we are so resilient as human beings; we have the ability to pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, take a minute to feel emotional and feel the pain, and then pivot.” She further admitted that she has done that many times in her career, and that there was no clear path for her when she decided to try her luck in Hollywood. Priyanka added that there wasn’t much of a precedent before her, hence she decided to give it a shot, mentioning that the only thing she knew was that “I’m a hard worker and I know my job. Put me on a set with any filmmaker or co-actor, and I’ll stand toe-to-toe”. Priyanka Chopra's Hollywood journey After earning a name in Bollywood, Priyanka started her journey towards Hollywood with a lead role in ABC's Quantico in 2015. Ever since, she has not looked back. She made her Hollywood debut in a negative role with Baywatch in 2017, which also starred Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron. Later, she was seen in projects such as Matrix: Revolutions, Citadel, Love Again, and Isn't It Romantic. In 2018, Priyanka tied the knot with Nick Jonas and welcomed her first child, Malti Marie in 2022. Currently, Priyanka stays in the US with her husband and family. She was most recently seen in R-rated pirate adventure The Bluff as Bloody Mary, along with her co-star Karl Urban. The film was released on Prime Video on February 25.
