Music producer and singer Honey Singh took to his social media and shared an Insta story taking a dig at Badshah's rapping skills. Taking to his Instagram Stories, Yo Yo Honey Singh shared a promo video from Indian Idol 15. The promo video showed Badshah showing his freestyle rapping skills along with Vishal Dadlani and Shreya Ghoshal. The rapper can be heard rapping, “Dilli ka golgappa, Mumbai se bhelpuri, Chandigarh ki lassi ko gadd gadd pi jaate hai." Sharing this video, Honey Singh made a sarcastic remark. He wrote, “Aise lyrics likhwane hai bass taqdeer ban jayegi meri (Such lyrics will make my fortune)." He also added a laughing emoji with the text. Honey Singh, Badshah, Raftaar, Lil Golu, and Ikka were part of the group called ‘Mafia Mundeer’. In 2009, Badshah left the group due to recognition of his song ‘Get Up Jawani’. Also, he said Honey Singh was only focusing on his solo career and doesn't give credit to other band members. Later, Ikka also left due to internal politics in 2012, and then Rftaar because he did not get the credit for the ‘Dope Shope’ song. Recently, Badshah ended his feud with Honey Singh in May 2024 during his concert in Dehradun. He said that he had held grudges against Honey Singh, but he wanted to move on and end this fight. The 15-year fight between the two rappers and singers appeared to have finally ended, but Honey Singh's recent Instagram story once again reignited their rivalry. Honey Singh was born in 1986 in a Sikh family. He started his career as a hip-hop music producer in 2003. Then, he released his debut studio album, International Villager. There are several popular songs, including Brown Rang, Love Dose, Desi Kalkar, Sunny Sunny, and many more. This story has been sourced from a third party syndicated feed, agencies.

19 October,2024 07:18 AM IST | Mumbai | The Hitlist TeamUsually, Jitin Gulati says yes to a project based on the scope of his role, prime examples being the intense gangster in Bambai Meri Jaan (2023) or his transgender character in Kaala (2023). For Maa, however, he had two reasons to jump on board. Director Vishal Furia’s supernatural thriller gave him not only a meaty role, but also the opportunity to share screen space with Kajol. “I would say Maa is much more than a horror film. It’s a psychological drama with nail-biting, thrilling moments. We wrapped up shooting earlier this year,” says the actor. The film also stars Ronit Roy and Indraneil Sengupta. Working with Kajol was a dream come true as well as a learning experience. Gulati says he was struck by the actor’s professionalism and warmth on set. “When you work with megastars like Kajol, you quickly understand why they’re exceptional at what they do. One of the key reasons is that they are equally great human beings. Kajol was collaborative and treated me like a partner on the project. She is so real, and that authenticity is what you see on screen. I have learned so much just by observing her.”
19 October,2024 07:12 AM IST | Mumbai | Mohar BasuSupport for director Honey Trehan’s Punjab ’95, a biopic on human rights activist Jaswant Singh Khalra, is rising. Last month, mid-day reported that the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) stood by the film that has been held up at the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) for the past two years. Now, the matter has caught the attention of the Akal Takht, considered the highest temporal authority of Sikhs. The body has instructed the SGPC to form a review board to examine the Diljit Dosanjh-starrer. This directive comes in response to the CBFC handing out nearly 120 changes, which range from rechristening the movie, to Khalra’s character being renamed (Cut, cut till you edit history? Sep 25). The instruction to change Khalra’s name hasn’t gone down well with the Sikh community or the martyr’s family. In response, the Akal Takht and the SGPC are pushing back to ensure that the legacy of the activist—who had investigated the disappearance and extrajudicial killings of Sikh youths during the Punjab insurgency between 1984 and 1995—is honoured. Gurcharan Singh Grewal, General Secretary, SGPC, told mid-day, “The Khalra family has voiced concerns that the CBFC’s cuts might dilute the film’s message by removing references to events verified by legal and human rights institutions. Such changes could obscure the film’s historical accuracy and impact. The Akal Takht’s Jathedar, Giani Raghbir Singh, has called for a panel of Sikh scholars to thoroughly review the film to ensure it aligns with the community’s sentiments and retains its integrity. Our agenda is to immediately consult Sikh scholars and ensure the film is examined from every angle before its release. We will fight for it to be released in its purest form. It’s crucial that the movie, in its original form, is released only after adequate efforts have been made to honour Khalra’s legacy.” Gurcharan Singh Grewal, SGPC member; (right) Activist Jaswant Singh Khalra Grewal says that the committee, which is currently being formed, will also include legal experts and academics who are well-versed with the politics of that period. The viewing will be held in the next few weeks. Meanwhile, Trehan and producer Ronnie Screwvala, who had objected to the CBFC’s almost 120 changes, are yet to hear back from the body about the film’s certification. A source told us, “The makers are seeing some hope after the Akal Takht and SGPC have decided to watch the film. It has now reached a point that the makers are contemplating not making any cuts to the film at all, including the original 22 cuts suggested by the CBFC. If the Sikh bodies are comfortable with the film, the makers will fight for the release of the original version.”

18 October,2024 06:34 PM IST | MumbaiActress Tamannaah Bhatia, who is under Enforcement Directorate (ED) scanner in connection with the probe into a money laundering case linked to the ‘HPZ Token’ mobile app, visited Kamakhya Temple here on Friday and took blessings. Cladded in a white Kurta Salwar, the actress was seen visiting the temple atop Nilachal Hills in the city with her mother and father. She was questioned by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) officials in Guwahati on Thursday for long hours. Bhatia stayed in a luxurious hotel in the city with her family and according to sources, she might be called for another round of questioning by the central agency. Several investors were allegedly duped on the pretext of mining Bitcoins and some other cryptocurrencies in the ‘HPZ Token’ mobile app. The statement of the 34-year-old actress was recorded at its zonal office here in accordance with the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). According to sources, there were no "incriminating" accusations against Bhatia who allegedly took money for making a "celebrity appearance" at an app company event. She was also called earlier but she chose to show up on Thursday instead of responding to the summons because of "job obligations". Tamannaah Bhatia arrived at the ED office in Guwahati at around 1.30 p.m. on Thursday, accompanied by her mother and father. The charge sheet submitted by the ED in connection with the matter in March named 299 entities as accused, including 76 Chinese-controlled firms with 10 Chinese-origin directors and two entities controlled by other "foreign persons". The money laundering case is the result of a formal complaint filed by Kohima Police's cybercrime unit, which charged several individuals with defrauding "gullible" investors by promising them enormous profits from mining Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. According to the police, the accused "cheated" the investors using the ‘HPZ Token’ mobile application. Reportedly, different "shell entities" with "dummy" directors created bank accounts and merchant IDs in order to "layer" the proceeds of criminal activity. It has been alleged that funds were "fraudulently" obtained for investment in Bitcoin mining as well as unlawful online gambling and betting. The ED conducted a nationwide search operation in this case, leading to the seizure of immovable assets and deposits worth Rs 455 crore. Born in December 1989, Tamannaah Bhatia is mainly known for her work in Telugu, Tamil and Hindi cinemas. This story has been sourced from a third party syndicated feed, agencies.
