‘Veere Di Wedding’ has been in news ever since the trailer was released. Promoted as #NotAChickFlick, the movie has received its share of praise and criticism since it has hit the screens. Rhea Kapoor and her gang of ‘veeres’ have tried to bring in a story of four women, something that we haven’t seen in Bollywood for a very long time.

But keeping the trolls tradition alive, some people just can’t digest the fact that women are openly discussing sex, desire, masturbation, and cussing like we do in daily life. 

It’s ironic how people who actually talk about these topics on a daily basis and actually even perform it practically are the ones creating an issue about it!

Tweeple are hating Swara Bhaskar, who in the movie is seen masturbating and are tagging her in hate tweets.

 A Twitter user actually tweeted to Swara, “Hey @ReallySwara just watched #VeerDiWedding with my grandmother. We got embarrassed when the masturbation scene came on screen. as we came out of the theatre my grandmother said “I’m Hindustan and I am ashamed of #VeerDiWedding (sic).”

Hey @ReallySwara just watched #VeereDiWedding with my grandmother. I saw many sanskari grandmothers telling their sanskari grandchildren to tweet “I’m hindustan and i am ashamed of #VeereDiWedding”.

My chilled out grandmother told me to tweet about this.

Well, this makes us wonder what century are we living in. Because this wasn’t the country that wanted to be hush-hush about sex ever. Just to enlighten all the clueless beings, ‘Hindustan’ is actually known as the ‘Land of Kamasutra’, where for generations we have openly spoken about sex and not considered it a taboo.

Maybe the issue isn’t talking about it, this is the simple case of trying to get attention! The tweet is being shared and re-shared. But there are many who are boldly questioning these so-called ‘sanskari’ people! 

For some inexplicable reason, there seems to be a tremendous demand for Veere Di Wedding among Indian grandmothers, regardless of their alleged, consistent (word-to-word consistent!) opinion after the film. pic.twitter.com/VCn1wroHlf

For some weird reasons, people who cant spell “Masturbation” are going to watch #VeereDiWedding with their  Grandmothers and want answers from @ReallySwara pic.twitter.com/CAB1ab5b4O

What I failed to understand that Why the f#*” we have to watch every movie with family.from it’s trailers it is quite understood that it’s an adult rom com. Why in the name of God will take ur grandma and pls leave ur judgement at ur doorstep, adult people CAN watch adult comedy

Once Hitler took the massive advantage of ‘nationalism’ and did most heinous crime in the history. Asking questions and doing for betterment of country is real desh seva. Ranting about movies and songs on the name of nationalism is only a drama nothing else.

And Swara decided to give it back shutting themselves once and for all! Kudos girl!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Looks like a certain IT cell sponsored the tickets- or definitely the tweets !!!! 🤦�?♀�🤦�?♀�🤦�?♀�😆😆😆😆 https://t.co/KIUqMoOLRG

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 @Joydas you bring so much joy to my Twitter timeline.. I wish paid trolls would at the very least re-arrange the sentences and run a spell check before their paid tweet attacks #PaidTrollsKiPolKhulGayi #SakshiSlays https://t.co/pxHyjKthXH

For all the people who are creating an unwanted fiasco, everyone knew it was an adult rom-com flick. Then why did you take your grandmother, if you were so uncomfortable?

The trailer clearly showed what the movie was all about unless you were living under a rock. Because then it is an acute case of lack of common sense, which isn’t common anyway! Before we end this, let’s make it clear that it’s not the film but your thoughts that are embarrassing!

There is no smoke without fire and in case of Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas, we can see the whole city burning right under our noses. 

The two are inseparable and we aren’t just saying it for viewership. It’s not just Hollywood but even Bollywood envy this new ‘power’ couple. And why not? After all, these two define what’s called ‘best of both worlds’. 

Earlier this week, the two were spotted in various places together. A week ago, they were attending the Beauty and the Beast Live in Concert at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. The next day we saw them enjoying a Los Angeles Dodgers baseball game. The videos of the two together walking to their seats had literally set the Internet on fire.

Talking about their chemistry one person at the game revealed to a magazine, “They were both very happy and smiley and seemed to really be enjoying each other’s company. They didn’t show any PDA, just talking and laughing a lot.”

Later, they were even holidaying on a yacht with friends Wilmer Valderrama and Chord Overstreet where we got to see Priyanka getting cosy with Nick. Don’t they look adorable?

Teasing us some more, the two now went on a date making things almost public for a dinner date at Toca Medera in LA. The two looked significant together and it wouldn’t be wrong to say this is actually happening guys!

Well, many of us are wondering what exactly happened on the date and let us tell you that it was all about food, music, chivalry, and PDA. And we know when Priyanka does it, she is actually into it!

“They were very affectionate with each other and seemed to not care who saw. Priyanka ran her hands through his hair at one point and they were laughing and even dancing to the music,” a source told another magazine.

The duo was totally into each other and went to enjoy music together and share guacamole, ceviche, and tacos for dinner.

For those who don’t know, Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas made their appearance together the first time when they walked Met Gala red carpet in 2017.

In fact, Jimmy Kimmel had also asked PeeCee about her Met Gala date with Nick to which she said, “We were both wearing Ralph Lauren and so we decided to go together. It was fun. I didn’t ask his age. What is it? 11?”

Well…Priyanka is fun for sure! We can’t wait for the two to make things official.

The two biggest takeaways from the ‘Sanju’ trailer that came out a couple of days ago were that– Ranbir Kapoor is a freaking incredible actor, and he took method acting to a whole another level by basically just becoming Sanjay Dutt. I literally couldn’t get over how much Ranbir not only looked like him but also sounded exactly like him. Christian Bale is shook.

Ever since the news about this movie dropped, everyone became familiar with Ranbir’s transformation into Sanjay and how he totally immersed himself in the role to get it perfect, and going by the trailer, it’s so accurate it’s kind of uncanny.

Following the release of the trailer, people are comparing the different looks of Ranbir with the actual inspiration – Sanjay Dutt – and well, you just have to see the pictures for yourself to know how much effort this guy actually put in this movie.

Almost the same person!

I can feel Ranbir’s talent from this one picture, tbh.

Aamir Khan has completed thirty years in the Hindi film industry and the actor has not only entertained the audience with his amazing performances but also educated them with his various social message-driven films.

In his three decades-long career, the Superstar has given us some brilliant films and unforgettable characters.

However, there is still more about the actor that we aren’t aware of! Here’s a look at seven unknown facts about Aamir Khan:

1. AK is the first guy to open the 100 Crore, 200 Crore, 250 Crore, 300 Crore, 350 Crore (Dangal record of 382 hasn’t be broken yet by any Bollywood film). And now he has also opened China as a market for Bollywood films.

2. Aamir is the only actor to have 11 plus films in 8 plus ratings on IMDB.

3. AK has the highest hit flop ratio ever in his films, his production house has a 100 percent ratio.

4. In last ten years, Aamir Khan has played, a 22-year-old to a 57-years-old man and all his characters have the highest recall value.

5. Philanthropist AK – All social message ads done over years have been pro bono, he hasn’t charged a rupee. Example of Incredible India, Atithi Devo Bhava, Polio and a few more. He has also been the face of Unicief Asia for years.

6. AK is only Producer/Filmmaker after Mehboob Khan (Mother India) and Satyajit Ray to be invited for Oscars ceremony.

7. Aamir Khan’s ad films have been as distinctive as his films!

Filmmaker Abhishek Kapoor has dissolved the ongoing matter taking the date issue of Sara Ali Khan.

The matter that came to light was how Sara’s dates that were originally blocked for Kedarnath’s shoot were the same dates that were given for Rohit Shetty’s Simmba. The development created quite a worry amongst the three parties. However much to everyone’s relief, the case has been resolved by Abhishek Kapoor.

The Kai Po Che director has figured a way out and has come to a conclusion without having both the films suffer over the date issue.

Abhishek Kapoor who originally had Sara Ali Khan’s dates for Kedarnath’s shoot has accommodated the shoot of Sara’s forthcoming film Simmba directed by Rohit Shetty too in the same period. Now Sara will be shooting for two films simultaneously with both films being shot on course.

Sources close to the producer revealed, “Abhishek has graciously accommodated Sara’s dates for Simmba with the schedule of Kedarnath as he does not want any of the producers to suffer. Sara who was originally supposed to make her debut with Kedarnath will be working on both the films simultaneously now.”

Makers of Kedarnath, Abhishek Kapoor’s Guy In The Sky and Ronnie Screwala’s RSVP will be shooting Kedarnath as scheduled.

This solution has surely come in as a big relief to Sara Ali Khan and Rohit Shetty who will now be able to shoot Simba as planned too.

Even though Benedict Cumberbatch is now Doctor Strange as part of the Avengers, he will forever be Sherlock Holmes to us and it looks like he can’t escape that, as well as Baker Street.

In a heroic act, the British actor leapt out of the back of an Uber without even thinking and fought off four muggers. And where did all of this take place? Just around the corner from Baker Street, where Sherlock Holmes lives! It’s all a big coincidence but I can’t help but wonder if it was meant to be.

Benedict Cumberbatch Saves Cyclist By Fighting Off 4 Guys

But, coming back to his brave act, he was in an Uber with his wife, Sophie Hunter, when he saw a bunch of guys pushing around a Deliveroo cyclist. He immediately jumped out to help out the guy. When things looked like they were getting worse, the cab driver also got out to help.

Here’s the whole account of the incident that the driver, Manuel Dias, gave to The Sun: “I was taking Benedict and his wife to a club — but I didn’t know it was him at first. I went to turn down into Marylebone High Street and we saw four guys were pushing around a Deliveroo cyclist.”

Benedict Cumberbatch Saves Cyclist By Fighting Off 4 Guys

“My passenger jumped out, ran over and pulled the men away. They turned towards him and things looked like getting worse, so I joined in. He stood there instructing them in the street, shouting, ‘Leave him alone’. It was only then I recognised Benedict. Then it all got a bit surreal. Here was Sherlock Holmes fighting off four attackers just around the corner from Baker Street.”

He added, “I had hold of one lad and Benedict another. He seemed to know exactly what he was doing. He was very brave. He did most of it, to be honest. They tried to hit him, but he defended himself and pushed them away. He wasn’t injured. Then I think they also re­cognised it was Benedict and ran away.”

“Benedict was courageous, brave and selfless. If he hadn’t stepped in, the cyclist could have been seriously injured. He asked the rider how he was and when he said, ‘I’m OK’ Benedict just hugged him,” the driver further said. 

So brave!

As we wait, rather impatiently, for the 8th season of ‘Game of Thrones’ to air next year, we can’t help but lap up every bit of GOT trivia we can lay our hands on. From Kit Harington and Rose Leslie (i.e. Jon Snow and Ygritte) planning to get married to Emilia Clarke chopping her golden locks for the finale, we just can’t get enough. One such golden piece of trivia is about a diehard ‘Game of Thrones’ fan who walked in the snow for 13 hours to draw a massive Stark sigil on the snow peaks of France. That’s a Stark house loyal right there!

British snow artist and GOT fanatic Simon Beck undertook this Herculean mission over 2 years ago. The man covered over 64,800 steps (which took him 13 hours) to draw an impressive image of a dire wolf, the sigil of the Stark House.

If you think it was just a walk in the snow, you are more misguided than Cersei was about Dany’s dragons. It required a well-etched out map with elaborately plotted lines.

The Stark sigil is as impressive as the real one in the show and has the words “Winter is coming” carved into the snow below it. This one looks even more promising than the Stark House sigil that the nightwalkers had created in the previous season.

Everyone tries to recreate a particular celebrity look that they like. It could be some outfit you fancy, the backdrop of the shot or some crazy accessory they carried. However, this awesome Italian dude called Emanuele Ferrari, also known as Emi, goes beyond just recreating the celebrity looks he fancies. He is beyond hilarious and miraculously ends up looking better than the celebrity in the original picture.

Name an iconic hot celeb look, and this guy has recreated it.

Even his recreation of Priyanka Chopra’s Met Gala look is one of our favourites, especially with that crown made out of toast.

The best part is that he makes outfits out of random stuff he finds in his home.

Also, no one can use toilet paper better than Emi.

He swept women off their feet in the 90’s with his chocolate boy looks and if it wasn’t for his movies, we wouldn’t have known the keen sting of love. Through the years, R. Madhavan has managed to age like fine wine and has transformed himself from Mr. charming to the ultimate hunk. Clearly, it is a skill that Indian men can take a page from.

As the actor turns 48 today, we bring you a list of reasons as to what makes him the ideal man. Check out this amazing guide and learn from the master himself.

1. If it wasn’t for Maddy, we would have never known what it was like to madly love someone without fearing consequences! If only everyone had the same passion.

2. He worked his charm in the Tamil industry with Mani Ratnam’s ‘Alaipayuthey’ and ‘Minnale’ that established him as the ultimate romantic hero. For guys who are in love, here’s what you need to watch.

3. Then came ‘Rang De Basanti’ where he donned the role of an IAF pilot. The movie, of course, broke records. But it also gave men quick tips on how to be the perfect gentleman. Not asking you to wear a uniform or anything, but this sure helps.

4. Maddy destroyed the notion that being charming was the only card up his sleeve, and posted a selfie that left both men and women gasping. I’m sure no one can forget his fresh-out-of-a-shower selfie. Who knew he could transform into a Greek God like that? Learn to channel your inner hotness like him!

5. Just when people thought the salt and pepper look was going out of fashion, Madhavan decided to change everyone’s minds with this. Think you can pull it off as well?

B-town recently found its new ‘IT’ couple and people can’t stop obsessing over them.

From the rampant rumours of the two dating to being spotted at a film screening and then making an appearance together at a major event, they have been making headlines left, right and centre. And now, it is official that Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt are indeed dating each other.

However, while everyone was playing the ‘guessing’ game, there was someone who already knew the truth. But, before we tell you the details, here’s a quick recap of how it all began.

So What Are Your Thoughts About #ranlia ? I Totally Ship Them! They make a cutee couple and are soo cute together! I would love them together?� #ranlia @aliaabhatt #ranbirkapoor #ranbiralia

A post shared by Aloo?� (@alia_bhatt_louve) on May 28, 2018 at 1:52pm PDT

Even since Alia began promoting her latest film ‘Raazi’, she has been quite vocal about her feelings and affections for the actor. We then saw Ranbir doing something similar.

It was no secret that Alia had a massive crush on Ranbir, but it was surprising when he professed his feelings for her at an event. Talking about her he said, “Well, I have a boy crush on her now.”  This was all the proof anyone needed to confirm that a fire was indeed burning on both ends.

I’ve been a fan of ranbir since #saawariya 💛 #ranlia #ranbirkapoor #aliabhatt @aliaabhatt @neetu54 #bollywood #bollywoodlovers #ranbiralia #aliaranbir

A post shared by ranliaâ?¤ (@ranliafc) on May 19, 2018 at 5:20am PDT

In a statement, which officially confirmed his relation with Alia, Ranbir admitted that both the actors were actually seeing each other. “It’s really new right now, and I don’t want to overspeak. It needs time to breathe and it needs space,” he said.

It’s been reported that Alia and Ranbir’s mom Neetu Kapoor have been spending some time with each other and bonding quite well. While no one even got a whiff of this relationship, there was someone very close to Ranbir, with whom he shared everything before making it official.

A post shared by Alia ✨�� (@aliaabhatt) on May 9, 2018 at 3:09am PDT

Well, the person who knew about this was none other than Ranbir’s ex Deepika Padukone. Though exes are not expected to get along, these two have been close friends and often share their secrets with each other.

A source close to Ranbir said, “RK and Deepika continue to be close friends, and keep each other’s secrets. He told her about it and she was very happy for him and Alia. It’s rare to find such friendship between exes.”

Now isn’t that adorable? The mature way in which Ranbir and Deepika have dealt with their breakup, tells us that being friends with your ex isn’t that difficult after all.

Recently, when Alia was asked how she deals with rumours of being linked to someone, she said to a leading daily, “I don’t have to deal with them, because if it’s true, it’s true. And if it’s false, it’s false. Let’s just say everything is not because of a movie and everything is not for publicity.”

Oh captain my captain! Prep with the legend @amitabhbachchan ������ #brahmastra #ranbirkapoor

A post shared by Alia ✨�� (@aliaabhatt) on Jun 1, 2018 at 2:14am PDT

Well, now we know what is the truth after all. There is no denying that the two make a wonderful pair and we are very happy for them. 

On the work front, Ranbir and Alia have wrapped up the first schedule of shooting for ‘Brahmastra’ in Bulgaria. The movie is one of the most anticipated films of 2019, where we will see the duo with the legendary Amitabh Bachchan. The movie is a fantasy trilogy and also stars Mouni Roy.
