While most celebrities try to stay away from controversies, Salman Khan, on the other hand, seems to love being in the news for all the wrong reasons. Instead of trying to avoid saying and doing things that can potentially land him in trouble, the Bollywood star is doing just the opposite.

So, when you have the nerve to make callous comments, you also need to be ready for the following backlash as well. After all, what goes around comes around! 

At times, he compares his exhaustion from a physically demanding shoot to that of a “raped woman” and then some other day you discover that he disregards a child’s consent. What person in their right mind fails to understand the meaning of rape or feels that it is okay to hug a child without his consent?

Kids usually love me, this boy was an exception.. at least I got my hug in the end 😜� #dancedeewane @beingsalmankhan @madhuridixitnene @anilskapoor

Yes, to all the Bhaijaan fans out there, I know the poor actor is always dragged into controversies. He is never at fault. He is as innocent as a kid. He is a 52-year-old man-child.

Salman Fat-Shames A Woman Proving He Can Never Change

Maintaining his streak of imprudent actions, this time the multi-talented (when it comes to making a fool of himself) Salman Khan fat-shamed a 42-year-old woman on a dance reality show.

The actor publicly made fun of Meenal Dhapre’s weight not just once but multiple times. However, the contestant was so stunned to see her idol Madhuri Dixit Nene before her, that she was oblivious to Salman’s comments. But his harsh remarks did catch everyone else’s attention.

It all happened when Meenal requested a hug from Madhuri before her performance. Madhuri obliged and the excited contestant came running when Salman said: “araam araam se, kahin stage na toot jaaye” (Careful, the stage might just break). Besides the appalling comment, it was also shocking to see how all the other celebrities sitting there let this slide as a joke.

And that wasn’t it. Looking at Madhuri and Meenal talking, Salman asked if they knew each other. To which the contestant replied that she comes from a ‘chhota shahar’ (small town). And since he is the representative of ‘Being Human’, he remarked how she could fit in there? Ironic isn’t it?

Salman honestly, what the hell is wrong with you and your so-called comic sense?

After hugging Madhuri, Meenal promptly lost her balance and fell. We all probably would as well, if we ever saw our idols right before us.

Later on, Meenal gave an entertaining performance on Mera Piya Ghar Aaya from ‘Yaarana’. All the while, Salman stood close to the stage and when she concluded her performance he said, “main wahan isliye khada tha ki aap kahin phir se tappa khaaker gir gaye toh?”

He straight away compared her to a ball. How ignorant were the celebrities and the audience, who did not feel the need to call out Salman for his insolent and disrespectful behaviour?

If not for anything, just respect the fact that she can dance and you suck at that job literally. You might have found this funny, but your sense of humour is as low as your IQ. 

Dear Bhaijaan, I know you can get away with anything, but how about showing some responsibility, as millions of people look up to you? Or let me guess, you don’t really know what fat-shaming actually means. If that is the case, then don’t worry, there are ways to enlighten people like you.

As per the Cambridge dictionary, here is the definition of fat-shaming (along with an example):

In case you feel Cambridge is not that reliable a source, then here’s another one from Oxford:

But we are all ears to understand the meaning of ‘fat-shaming’ from Salman Khan’s dictionary (because that seems to be the best reference book on how to get away with a crime).

Of course, Twitter lost it as well and trolled the ‘Race 3’ actor.

Sooooo. On this dance reality show, a fat woman said, she’s from a very “small” place and Salman Khan made a joke about “how did she fit there?” and that’s only of the reasons why I hate him so much.

U do not have any right to fat shame a lady!

She is a good dancer (better than u certainly) and u shud have stuck to ur reason of being called on the show- promoting ur film!
Any Bollywood celebrity condemning?

There are very few actors in Bollywood, who put their heart and soul into playing a character and nailing the role with near perfection. Paresh Rawal is one such name who can turn any role into an exceptional one with his Midas touch. While his portrayal of the eccentric yet lovable Baburao Ganpatrao Apte from ‘Hera Pheri’ will always be our favourite, it is his performance in an upcoming film that is creating quite a buzz at the moment.

Rawal will be seen playing the legendary Sunil Dutt in ‘Sanju’. Being called as one of the most awaited films of the year, Sanjay Dutt’s biopic is a story that millions are waiting to watch with bated breath.

The trailer has already left everyone impressed with Ranbir Kapoor’s brilliant portrayal of Sanjay Dutt. Keeping the vibe alive, Rawal recently, shared a story related to the movie that has left an imprint on our minds.

Well, maybe destiny did have plans for Rawal or maybe Dutt Sahab always wanted him to play his character, if such a moment ever came. Talking about what happened when he was offered the role, he said it was no less than a divine intervention. Playing Dutt Sahab’s role is no walk in the park. The Bollywood great has a left a legacy behind and Rawal has huge shoes to fill.

Img(C) Fox Star India

Talking about the important moment, Rawal told a leading daily, “On May 25, 2005, I was shooting for a movie and I called up home to say that I will be late. And during the shooting, we got to know that Dutt Sahab (Sunil Dutt) has passed away, so I called up my wife and said I will come a bit late because Dutt Sahab has passed away and I am going to his house. She then told me that there is a letter for you from him (Sunil Dutt). I asked her what the letter was and she said it is for wishing you a happy birthday. I told her that my birthday is on May 30, which is five days away but she said the letter is for you and she even read it to me. I was so surprised. Why would Dutt Sahab send me a birthday letter five days before my birthday? And we have never exchanged any holiday greetings in the past – be it Diwali or Christmas – so why would he write to me?”

Img(c) Fox Star India

Stunned? So are we! But Sahab always had a way of amazing people. Rawal, who was also surprised at the time, further shared, “On January 3, 2017, I asked my wife to take out a couple of my documents as I was going to meet Rajkumar Hirani. I told her I will pick up those documents when I come back. When I was sitting with Rajkumar Hirani, my wife called me and said that along with the documents, that letter from Sunil Dutt Sahab was also there. She asked me what I wanted to do about it. And I was stunned as I was narrated the part of Sunil Dutt for the movie.”

Some things and some moments are precious to us and we often preserve them in whatever way possible. Rawal did something similar. “See, usually you don’t keep birthday cards for 12 years, you discard them. You forget about them, but that letter was there with all my important documents and it was again found on the same day Rajkumar Hirani narrated the ‘Sanju’ role to me. It is like a divine intervention. I showed that letter to Rajkumar Hirani later,” he added.

Img(c) Fox Star India

Not many know this but Rawal and Sunil Dutt have worked together in Rajkumar Kohli’s ‘Virodhi’, even though they never shared any screen time together.

After hearing this story, it feels like Rawal was meant to play this role and honestly, after getting a glimpse of his performance in the trailer, we couldn’t agree more.

Directed by Rajkumar Hirani the movie also stars Sonam Kapoor, Dia Mirza, Vicky Kaushal, Manisha Koirala and Boman Irani and will hit the screens on June 29, 2018.

Lives of celebrities are nothing less than an open book. There is nothing about them that can be kept hidden or under wraps. The more they try, the more their dirty laundry is out in the public. While we all know that Deepika Padukone is dating Ranveer Singh, we also know how her relationship with Ranbir Kapoor ended on a bitter-sour note. And once again things are not going well in Deepika’s world.

At present Deepika is in a healthy, steady relationship with Ranveer and there is no one in B-town who doesn’t adore this couple. From giving us relationship goals to showing us how to stick by each other, they are the ‘IT’ couple of Bollywood.

A few years ago when Deepika and Ranbir ended their relationship, they broke millions of hearts. While Ranbir moved on quickly, Deeps took a long time to gather the pieces of her broken heart and put it in place.

A post shared by Deepika Padukone (@deepikapadukone) on May 2, 2018 at 10:50pm PDT

Maybe everyone has a different way of dealing with a breakup, but it was just a phase. Soon, Deepika became the biggest actress in Bollywood, and also found love again.

A post shared by Deepika Padukone (@deepikapadukone) on May 11, 2018 at 12:44pm PDT

For years now, Ranveer and Deepika have been going strong and are rumoured to be getting married soon. But looks like there is some trouble in their paradise. Deepika is kind of unsure and her ex Ranbir is the reason behind it.

A close friend of Deepika Padukone told Deccan Chronicle, “Ranveer is completely committed to the relationship and wholeheartedly devoted to her. But Deepika fears her heart may be broken again and this time she won’t be able to take it.”

Talking some more about it, the friend revealed how Deepika was ready to give up her career just for Ranbir. “She was looking at a life ahead with Ranbir. She wanted marriage and babies and was even ready to give up her career to be Mrs. Ranbir Kapoor. They broke up and Ranbir moved on.”

Deepika Can't Commit To Ranveer Because Of Ranbir© Twitter

Deepika has always been vocal about her feelings for Ranbir. In fact, during ‘Tamasha’ promotions when she was asked if she still loves him, she said, “Of course I do. I don’t think that every feeling has to be broken down as I don’t believe that emotions are unidimensional anyway. Feelings and emotions are very layered.”

“He is someone I have always loved and someone I will always be extremely possessive about and very protective about. When I read about him, when I see his work, good bad whatever it is, I have my own monologue that is going on in my head and which I do share with him.”

Deepika Can't Commit To Ranveer Because Of Ranbir

Forgetting true love is difficult and it shatters you. Maybe people who have walked that road will relate to Deepika’s pain. We hope the actress gets ready soon and we can see our favourite Ranveer and Deepika tying the knot soon.

What will happen with the ‘Transformers’ franchise is a question that has remained unanswered for a long time, but at least we now know there is one movie coming for sure to entertain us thoroughly. The trailer of Transformers’ spin-off has arrived and it’s all about our much-loved yellow VW Autobot.

Unlike most Transformers film, this one is quite refreshing and brings in a female heroine, some deep emotions and a lot at personal stake. The gigantic Autobot has a lot of heart.

The trailer begins with the ever-lasting words of Bobby Bolivia, played by Bernie Mac in the first Transformers movie. “The driver doesn’t pick the car, the car picks the driver. It’s a mystical bond between man and machine.”

Soon we are introduced to Charlie, our teenage heroine (Hailee Steinfeld). We see her driving home in a yellow Volkswagen Beetle, only to realise that it is actually a Transformer.

You see a bond building between Bumblebee and Charlie, where they form a strong bond of friendship. This is Bumblebee before we met him in 2007. He is lost and finds it difficult to trust people. Charlie shows him solicitude and compassion.

But time will test their relation, as Decepticons make their appearance.

The movie is set in 1987 and Bumblebee is on the run from Agent Burns (John Cena) who is a Transformers-hunter from Sector 7. Though it’s an action-packed packed trailer, yet the makers show us the mystical bond that makes you all teary.

It’s World Environment Day and people across the globe are doing their bit to promote causes that will help us in building a better environment. And just like every year, even this year, the United Nations Environment council has decided to promote a new cause of #BeatPlasticPollution this year.

We don’t need to tell you what the usage of plastic has done to our ecosystem. Hence, taking it seriously the council has joined hands with several global icons and celebrities to start a campaign called #BeatPlasticPollution.

Taking to Twitter, the UN Environment council tweeted, “You’re it! Join the global game of Tag to #BeatPlasticPollution for #WorldEnvironmentDay – show how you’re making the switch from single-use plastic & challenge 3 friends to do the same.”

Actress Dia Mirza for a very long time has been working on various environmental causes that have made some difference in India. Taking up the #BeatPlasticPollution cause, she was seen nominating some actors which included Alia Bhatt.

Alia was seen taking up the cause too and creating awareness on social media. Giving up plastic, she has asked everyone to switch to steel or glass bottles. She even mentioned how plastic bottles take 450 years or more to decompose, harming us and our environment, which is a very serious point for all of us to note.

We also saw Indian yogi, Sadguru, requesting people to quit the usage of plastic.  He pointed out a very valid point and wrote on Twitter, “we are looking at plastic pollution as an isolated ecological problem. But this is essentially a human problem. An indication that we have lost contact with life around us.”

‘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. 

Img(c) Balaji Motion Pictures

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.

— Meghnad (@Memeghnad) June 2, 2018

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. 

Img(c) Balaji Motion Pictures

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 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.

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!

Morning light post a shower.. feeling fresh after a good long nights sleep.. after the long travels …

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?

If Maddy taught us one thing, it is to be true to our original self, accept who we are and slay it like a boss.

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

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.

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.”

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.

The box office is all set to witness a string of blockbuster films this June. With the release of ‘Veere Di Wedding’, ‘Bhavesh Joshi Superhero’ and ‘Phantom’, the month has already started on a high note.

2018 has been a great year for Bollywood so far, with movies like ‘Padman’, ‘Padmaavat’, ‘Baaghi 2’ and ‘Raid’ making big bucks. It was amazing to see even average budget movies like ‘Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety’ and ‘Hichki’ impressing the viewers with its fresh concepts.

May proved to be an awesome month with movies like ‘Raazi’ and ‘Parmanu’ throwing light on stories that we had never heard of. And now, after watching these intense movies, it’s time to start this month with a bang as it has entertainment written all over it.

June 2018 has some great movies lined up and here’s a list of the ones which should be on your must-watch list:

Veere Di Wedding (1 June 2018)

With all the buzz around this movie, we bet there is no one who isn’t curious to know what the story is all about. Promoted as #NotAChicFlick, this movie stars Kareena Kapoor Khan, Sonam Kapoor Ahuja, Swara Bhaskar and Shikha Talsania in the lead roles. The movie revolves around four friends attending the wedding of a close friend from within the group. The script brings in different layers and emotions, showcasing four different journeys. The movie has already hit the theatres today and you can catch it over the weekend.

Bhavesh Joshi Superhero (1 June 2018)

Vikramaditya Motwane’s vigilante drama ‘Bhavesh Joshi Superhero’ is not your regular Bollywood superhero movie, which makes it a must watch. The trailer had left many impressed with its concept. The movie highlights the serious issue of corruption prevalent in Indian politics. It can be termed as a superhero/revenge drama, where Harshvardhan Kapoor will be seen trying to avenge the death of his friend, who was killed by a politician for his own nefarious reasons.

Weaving the tale of a vigilante who fights corruption in a kick-ass style, this movie is edgy, dark and gives you a sliver of hope that this could bring about a change to the face of B-town’s superhero films.

Phamous (1 June 2018)

There are chances that you might have not even heard of this film, but with a cast like Jimmy Shergill, Kay Kay Menon, and Mahie Gill, the movie does sound promising indeed. Directed by Karan Lalit Bhutani, the movie is a romantic/crime drama that deals with the power struggle between four main characters in the Chambal region of Madhya Pradesh.

The plot and the concept seem to be interesting and different compared to main-stream films, but with huge movies like ‘Veere Di Wedding’ and ‘Bhavesh Joshi’ releasing alongside ‘Phantom’, we wonder if people will even give this movie a chance? Maybe word of mouth will do wonders for this movie?

Kaala (7 June 2018)

Though this is not a Bollywood movie, the Hindi dubbed version of this Rajinikanth-starring film makes it to our list for all the right reasons. Thalaivar’s latest movie shows him as the saviour of the masses. The gangster-drama is the story of Kaala Karikaalan, who is a local favourite in the Dharavi slum. He will be seen fighting Nana Patekar, a corrupt politician who has no qualms about eliminating anyone who gets in his way.

We can already expect some whistle-worthy dialogues and jaw-dropping action sequences, given it’s a Rajinikanth movie.

Race 3 (15 June 2018)

When a movie stars Salman Khan, it goes without saying that it becomes one of the most anticipated films of the year. Starring Salman Khan, Jacqueline Fernandez, Bobby Deol, Daisy Shah, Anil Kapoor, Saqib Saleem, and Freddy Daruwala, ‘Race 3’ is the perfect family entertainer, which is set to release this Eid and Bhai’s fans are more than excited to watch it.

High on octane action sequences, this movie, however, has become a joke on social media for various reasons. But still, when a film stars Salman Khan, it is bound to mint money and enter the 100 crore club, even though it makes no sense at all. We only hope that Bhai doesn’t destroy the ‘Race’ franchise.

Sanju (29 June 2018)

The trailer of the movie has left almost everyone waiting with bated breath to see and hear the unseen story of Sanjay Dutt. Starring Ranbir Kapoor, the movie is a biographical drama based on the life of the controversial Bollywood actor.  Fondly known as Sanju Baba, Dutt’s story has different shades to it.

From the trailer, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that the man has seen and experienced more than one can ever think of in a lifetime, which makes his story extraordinary. The movie also stars Anushka Sharma, Manisha Koirala and Sonam Kapoor in key roles.
