Former Bigg Boss contestant Mandana Karimi has opened up about an alleged cyberbullying and stalking ordeal that she claims has continued for more than six years. The actress spoke about the issue on social media on Tuesday, September 1, 2026, and alleged that the person behind the harassment has also targeted people from her professional circle. Mandana claimed that the alleged stalker contacted her producers and co-stars with defamatory messages and even asked them for money. She shared screenshots of some of the alleged emails and urged anyone receiving such messages to avoid engaging with the sender. Mandana Karimi on cyberbullying and stalking In a series of videos shared on Instagram, Mandana alleged that the incidents began after her separation from businessman Gaurav Gupta and continued even after she moved from India to Dubai. Sharing her frustration, Mandana said, I am on a holiday, and it has happened again. I have had a cyberbullying case and a stalker for over 6 years since I got separated. An account messaged my producer and co-stars to make them aware of me and also asked them for money. Its still happening. I dont understand who hates me so much and wants me to have no work, money, or friends. The actress further claimed that she had earlier hired someone to look into the matter. According to Mandana, she was informed that a professional hacker had allegedly been paid to monitor her social media activity. She also alleged that people close to her had received emails from a fake account. In a detailed caption accompanying her videos, Mandana said she had been dealing with cyberbullying, harassment and stalking for years. She alleged that the unknown person closely monitors her life and sends malicious emails to people she works with or associates with, despite her relocation to Dubai. Mandana also claimed that she had previously filed multiple cybercrime complaints and has now decided to speak publicly about the matter while sharing what she described as evidence. She wrote, Enough is enough. For years, I have faced ongoing cyberbullying, harassment, and stalking from an unknown person who closely monitors my life and sends malicious emails to people I post or associate witheven after I moved from India to Dubai. I have previously filed multiple cybercrime complaints, and I am now speaking publicly and sharing the evidence. She further urged recipients of such emails not to send money or believe their contents. If you receive any email concerning me, please do not engage, send money, or believe its contents. Save it, take screenshots, and forward it to me. This is harassment, and I will no longer remain silent, she added. Mandana Karimis marriage Mandana was previously married to Mumbai-based businessman Gaurav Gupta. The couple reportedly dated for around two years before getting engaged in July 2016. They tied the knot in a civil ceremony and later had a traditional Hindu wedding in March 2017. Following her marriage, Mandana reportedly filed a domestic violence case against her husband and his family, which she later withdrew. The couple separated and their divorce was finalised in 2021. Mandana has now alleged that the cyberbullying and stalking began around the time of their separation and has continued over the years.

Bhumi Pednekar has spoken out following the alleged rape of a 16-year-old girl inside a moving sleeper bus in the Delhi-NCR region. The incident has raised fresh concerns about the safety of women and minors while travelling on private buses. The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) has also taken cognisance of the case. Bhumi addressed the incident through her Instagram Stories on Monday. Questioning how such cases continue to occur despite repeated discussions about womens safety, she wrote, How can we see this happen again and again and again! Shame! According to a Hindustan Times report, Delhi Police arrested the driver and conductor of a sleeper bus for allegedly gang-raping the minor. Police said the teenager, a Class 11 student from Mainpuri in Uttar Pradesh, was allegedly misled into boarding the bus in Greater Noida earlier this month. The accused allegedly drove her across different parts of Delhi-NCR before abandoning her near Kashmere Gate. The case has also resulted in a jurisdictional dispute between the police forces of Delhi and Uttar Pradesh. UP Police have alleged that Delhi Police did not inform them about the incident despite the alleged assault taking place within the Gautam Buddh Nagar Commissionerate area. According to Delhi Police, the teenager had left her home on August 3 without informing her parents after being reprimanded by her mother over her studies. She was travelling to her cousins residence in Sector 63, Noida. Police said the girl accidentally got down at Pari Chowk after it became dark and heavy rain began. She reportedly signalled to an approaching bus for help, following which the conductor allegedly told her that the bus was headed towards Sector 63. She boarded the vehicle, where police said there were no other passengers. The conductor allegedly behaved inappropriately with her after the bus started moving. Police alleged that both the driver and conductor sexually assaulted the teenager and threatened to kill her when she resisted. Following the complaint, Delhi Police registered a case under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act. The girl underwent a medical examination, which confirmed the assault. Investigators used CCTV footage and other information to trace the bus to a parking area in Timarpur, north Delhi. The vehicle was seized and sent for forensic examination. The teenager was subsequently produced before the Child Welfare Committee and, following its directions, handed over to her father. On the work front, Bhumi was last seen in Daldal, where she portrayed DCP Rita Ferreira, a police officer investigating a series of murders in Mumbai while dealing with a troubled past. The series, based on Vish Dhamijas bestselling novel Bhendi Bazaar, is streaming on Amazon Prime Video. Before Daldal, Bhumi appeared in films including Mere Husband Ki Biwi, Khel Khel Mein and Bhakshak.

Indian Premier League: Indian Premier League founder Lalit Modi emphasised that the growth of state T20 leagues is a positive development for Indian cricket that can help identify talent at local levels, but cautioned that very close monitoring should be carried out by the state cricket associations to keep them free from any possible corrupt approaches. The rise of state T20 leagues has helped unleash a new generation of cricketers, with several players making the most of the opportunities and attracting the attention of state associations and IPL franchises. IPL founder Lalit Modi heaped praise on the potential of those leagues to pave the way for players but cautioned to keep a close tab on them. I think state leagues are a positive development for Indian cricket. This was bound to happen as the IPL ecosystem grew, and if properly structured, these leagues can become an excellent pathway for young and undiscovered talent to perform under pressure, get noticed and potentially graduate to the IPL and higher levels, Modi told IANS. However, with the rapid growth of these leagues comes a serious responsibility. They must be professionally executed and very closely monitored by the respective state associations, with strong independent governance. My biggest concern would always be integrity, he added. The IPL founder further stressed the need to monitor the leagues, highlighting the risk of exposure to potential corrupt approaches. Smaller leagues can become particularly vulnerable to approaches from bookmakers, match-fixing, spot-fixing, player manipulation, conflicts of interest, questionable ownership or financial interests and other corrupt practices if adequate safeguards are not established from day one. Every league should therefore have robust anti-corruption protocols, player education, strict control over access to players and dressing rooms, proper scrutiny of owners and officials, transparent contracts and payments, independent audits, and active monitoring of suspicious betting patterns, the 62-year-old further said. Modi also emphasised that there is a need to monitor the operations of state cricket associations, as they need to be clean and transparent for state leagues to remain in the same way. And this is precisely why the governance of the state association itself matters. You cannot expect a league to be clean, transparent and professionally run if the institution supervising it is facing serious questions about its own governance. UPCA is an example where, over the years, allegations and controversies concerning governance, transparency, conflicts and the influence exercised by powerful administrators have repeatedly been raised publicly. Rajiv Shukla has been a prominent figure associated with UPCA and Indian cricket administration. Rather than allowing such questions to linger, they should be independently examined and answered transparently, he said. He further highlighted that the cricket administration in the state associations must not fall into the hands of individuals. The lesson for every state association should therefore be simple: do not allow cricket administration to become a private club controlled by a handful of individuals, Modi said. He emphasised the importance of regulatory oversight, disclose conflicts of interest, scrutinise franchise ownership and funding, audit the money independently, and make administrators accountable for their decisions. While the growth of T20 cricket has been a boon for Indian cricket, Modi said that expansion without governance can very quickly become a liability. He emphasised the importance of regulatory oversight, disclose conflicts of interest, scrutinise franchise ownership and funding, audit the money independently, and make administrators accountable for their decisions. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories The IPL founder also shared an Instagram post in which he highlighted the importance of institution building. I built the IPL so it would never need me. Nearly two decades later, it keeps breaking records. That's not success. That's institution building, he wrote. Article Source: IANS
PM hails 7.8% GDP growth, urges people to avoid buying gold, foreign trips
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday applauded the country's people for the 7.8 per cent GDP growth rate, calling the feat particularly impressive, coming against the backdrop of global turmoil, geopolitical conflicts, and supply chain disruptions. In a video message on Instagram, the prime minister also slammed those spreading jhooth ki goonj (an apparent riff on Rahul Gandhi's 'Chhatron ki Goonj' campaign), saying the latest GDP growth rate tore through the narrative of pessimism about the Indian economy. Modi said India must maintain the growth momentum and continue working towards greater self-reliance and 'Swadeshi'. We must maintain this momentum. We must keep moving forward, and for that, becoming Atmanirbhar Bharat is essential, he said. The prime minister said if people continue to stress on Swadeshi and self-reliance, the country's youth will be presented with a developed India in the 100th year of Independence. He also asked people not to go for foreign holiday

Gurdeep Mehndi is slowly and steadily making his mark as a singer and composer, carving an identity of his own beyond that of his father, Daler Mehndi, and uncle, Mika Singh. In an exclusive interview with Bollywood Hungama, Gurdeep spoke about his latest single as a singer, Chan Mahi. He also features in the music video alongside Aditi Sharma, and its unique, cinematic visuals have been widely appreciated. What kind of reactions have you received for Chan Mahi? The ones who are close to me and are also my toughest critics have observed that it is nothing like my regular stuff. Its a very different genre. Normally, I go for commercial music or whatever is trending. But many people told me that this song is not run-of-the-mill and that they love it. Its a slow, sad, romantic number. Iske lyrics ek pukaar hain. Chan Mahi is about a person telling his or her lover that tu mat jaa. But the beat, music and overall atmosphere of the song are completely different. You can play this song in a club, in a car or even at a house party! The video is novel a woman who repeatedly encounters her beloved in familiar spaces, blurring the line between memory and reality. How did the concept get locked? This music video is quite cinematic. Normally, a regular, formulaic music video has hook steps, four cars and girls! But since the feel of this song is different, I told music director Manil Kandwal that the video should focus on a different kind of obsession with your lover. It is like, main tere saath bhi nahin reh sakta aur tere bagair bhi nahin reh sakta. Even if I try to stay away from you, my body doesnt allow me to. My eyes, my mind, my everything leads back to you the person I love. Hence, she sees her lover in every guy she bumps into. Manil did justice to this vision of mine. He said that he would get into a serious cinema mode and treat the music video as a depiction of the feelings of someone who loves another person so deeply that they become the only endpoint. Thats what we have tried to show. How do you balance singing and composing? Is it a challenge? So, last year, I worked on a song called Sajri. I sang it, composed it and also wrote the lyrics. However, I regularly do live shows and I am also trying to do many other things. Composing is a serious process, and you need to invest a lot of time in thinking and creating a composition. Id prefer to come across as a sorted singer rather than randomly put stuff out on Instagram and YouTube. I feel that my song should make sense and impress you even if you listen to it four or five years later. Thats the hallmark of an evergreen song. Even today, we get evergreen songs like Jo Bheji Thi Duaa from Shanghai (2012), sung by Arijit Singh. Hence, instead of uploading random stuff, Id rather take my time and release songs carefully. Sadly, I am not able to devote that kind of time to composing. Hence, I source talent from outside. Thats great too, as it gives opportunities to emerging and promising artists. You recently sang a song in Haunted Echoes Of The Past, Lauta Do, and it was also a surprise Id like to thank Saregama for it. Sometimes, you need someone to make people look beyond stereotypes. Ive mostly been singing high-tempo songs that are very much rooted in pop culture. That is poles apart from the lehza and romance associated with Vikram Bhatt sahabs films. So, for them to consider Gurdeep Mehndi for a song like this was difficult. They probably couldnt even imagine me singing something in this space. I had to give an audition. I was at my home studio and sang a few lines. Thats when they realized the potential. Saregama played a big part in convincing them to try me and insisting that I am not a typical Punjabi singer. In fact, it was the Haunted song that inspired me to do Chan Mahi. I felt that if I could pull off Lauta Do, then I could pull off Chan Mahi as well. Id also like to thank Prateek Walia, who is the music composer of Haunted. When he approached me to sing the song, I decided to give it a try because I had never sung anything of this sort before. Is the Bollywood film industry warming up to you? Theres an interesting scenario when it comes to Bollywood and independent music. Those who achieved great success in Bollywood have now moved away from film music and are making waves in the independent space. For instance, Salim-Sulaiman have largely moved away from Bollywood music. On the other hand, many emerging talents feel that they cant afford to do independent songs and therefore dream of singing for Bollywood. A film song automatically gives them access to a wider audience, and sometimes crores are spent on promotions as well. But ironically, many of the champions of Bollywood music have moved away from that turf. Meanwhile, those working in the independent space are dreaming, If I get to sing in a Shah Rukh Khan film, Ill get so much visibility. To answer your question, I really want people to notice me and understand that I can sing not just Punjabi songs but different genres as well. Those who are in close contact with me are experimenting with my voice. Also, during Navratri, Ill be performing in Surat. I sing Gujarati songs too. Around 80% of my clients are Gujarati or Marwari, and I can easily perform Gujarati songs for 30-40 minutes.

India achieved 7.8 % growth despite wars, instability: PM Modi
New Delhi, Sep 01: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday commended the people for the 7.8 per cent GDP growth rate, noting that the feat was accomplished despite wars, instability, and supply chain disruptions. In a video message on Instagram, the prime minister said that if people continue to stress on Swadeshi and self-reliance, the country's youth will be presented with a developed India in the 100th year of Independence. He also asked people not to go for foreign holidays, host weddings abroad, or buy gold unless necessary. I want to congratulate the people of the country for 7.8 per cent GDP growth. It has been possible due to their collective resolve and efforts. India has achieved this milestone despite conflicts, wars and instability everywhere, Modi said. The prime minister said that since the 2020 COVID Pandemic, there has been no stability anywhere, but India progressed well. He said certain people in India have been trying to spread negativity and falsehood, but the country grew all the same. We have to maintain the speed of our growth. We have to grow. And for that we must become self-reliant. The youth's dreams need our hard work to be realised. Let's not be lacking in efforts, he said. Modi said his government's policies are good, its intention clear, and that is why the country is reaching new heights of progress. India's economy grew at a faster-than-expected 7.8 per cent in the April-June quarter, showing resilience against concerns of an economic downturn over the war in West Asia.

Kareena Kapoor reveals why films like 'Daayra'
Highlights Kareena Kapoor says films like Daayra make her think deeply about how she raises her sons, Taimur and Jeh. The actor wants boys to grow up kinder, more emotionally open and unafraid to cry. She revealed that one scene in Daayra left her disturbed while also becoming one of her favorite scenes. Kareena Kapoor has opened up about how Daayra made her reflect on raising her two sons, Taimur and Jeh, and the kind of men she hopes they will become. Speaking at the trailer launch of the upcoming investigative drama, the actor admitted that stories dealing with disturbing realities can be frightening from a mother's perspective. But for Kareena, they also reinforce the importance of teaching boys empathy, responsibility and emotional honesty. I am a mother of two sons, and I am terrified because, as a mother, you want to do your best and you want to protect them, Kareena said. All I wish for is that they should be kinder. Men should be kinder. Boys should be kinder. Kareena wants her sons to embrace their emotions Kareena also challenged the idea that boys should hide their emotions or avoid crying. There is this thought that a girl is always very sensitive, but that is not true, she said, adding that she encourages her sons to cry when they need to. See on Instagram I always tell my sons that if they want to cry, they should. They should experience that, she said. Her comments come as Daayra explores difficult questions around justice and the systems that are supposed to deliver it. The film stars Kareena alongside Prithviraj Sukumaran , with the story following an investigation that places their characters in a complicated situation. The Daayra scene that left her choked Kareena also singled out one scene from the film that affected her deeply. In this film, some scenes would automatically choke you, she said, recalling a sequence that became one of her favorites despite leaving her disturbed. The scene addresses the deeply rooted belief that galti hamesha ek ladki ki hoti hai, or that a girl is always blamed when something goes wrong. Kareena said Meghna Gulzar's writing made the scene particularly powerful, while the challenging nature of the material also made it rewarding to perform. Daayra marks Gulzar's return to Junglee Pictures following Talvar and Raazi . The investigative drama is written by Gulzar, Sima Agarwal and Yash Keswani, with Saurabh Goswami serving as cinematographer and Charu Shree Roy as editor. The film is backed by Junglee Pictures and Pen Studios.

Devgn CineX is set to expand its presence in South India with the addition of 18 screens across Bengaluru and Hyderabad by the end of 2026. The cinema exhibition brand will open an 11-screen megaplex in Bengaluru and a seven-screen property in Hyderabad as part of its next phase of expansion. The two upcoming properties will take Devgn CineX further into two of South Indias prominent entertainment markets. The Bengaluru venue will be among the brands larger properties, while the Hyderabad launch will mark its entry into the citys cinema exhibition market. Devgn CineX currently operates 57 screens across 19 locations in India. The company also has 30 additional screens underway during the current financial year. With the upcoming additions, the brand is looking to strengthen its presence across multiple markets and expand its overall exhibition footprint. The expansion comes as cinema operators increasingly look beyond traditional theatrical viewing experiences by incorporating premium hospitality, food and beverage offerings, technology and other entertainment options. Devgn CineX has similarly positioned its properties around elements including premium dining, immersive technology and live screenings of major sporting events, including T20 cricket and the FIFA World Cup. Its venues also offer curated food options, including bento-box concepts and healthier dining choices, while some properties can be used for corporate events and private celebrations. The company has also been developing digital engagement initiatives, loyalty programmes and data-led personalisation as part of its customer experience strategy. Speaking about the upcoming expansion, Ajay Devgn, Founder, Devgn CineX, said, Bengaluru and Hyderabad have always had a strong connection with cinema and the audiences here have given my films a lot of love over the years. With Devgn CineX, the aim is simple, to give them a great cinema going experience. These two properties are an important step forward and theres a lot more to come. The company has also announced the appointment of Ajay Agrawal as its Chief Executive Officer. Agrawal brings experience across retail, infrastructure, financial services and consumer-focused businesses and will oversee the brands next phase of growth. Commenting on the expansion, Ajay Agrawal, CEO, Devgn CineX, added, Bengaluru and Hyderabad are pivotal markets for us, and these two properties reflect the scale of our ambition. As we grow, our focus remains on building a future-ready organisation where every guest interaction, from the moment of booking to the last frame on screen, is seamless, personal and memorable, With the Bengaluru and Hyderabad properties, Devgn CineX is looking to build on its existing pan-India presence while continuing to expand its portfolio across key entertainment markets.

Kareena Kapoor Khan, Prithviraj Sukumaran, director Meghna Gulzar, producers Vineet Jain and Dr Jayantilal Gada and Junglee Pictures CEO Amrita Pandey attended the trailer launch of Daayra at a multiplex in Mumbai. The film deals with violence by a minor against another minor. Kareena was asked about what she feels about it, especially as a mother to sons, Taimur and Jeh. Kareena Kapoor Khan said, Its the responsibility of the boy and man as well. I am a mother of two sons and, of course, I am terrified because as a mother, you want to do your best. You want to protect them. You want to also show them that they are responsible. So, the only thing I keep praying for is that men should be more kind. The perception is that girls are always sensitive. But thats not always the case. There are men and boys who today have no fear of being sensitive and crying in front of a girl or their mother. I always tell my son, If he wants to cry, he should go ahead. He has to experience that and he has to know (what it feels like). View this post on Instagram A post shared by Bollywood Hungama (@realbollywoodhungama) Kareena added, There were some scenes in this film which would just automatically choke me. Theres a scene which I have done with my fellow co-star (pointing at someone in the audience); its also my favourite scene in the film. Meghna is not allowing me to say anything more! But it touches upon the belief that galti hamesha ladki ki hi hoti hai. You have to see that scene to understand the way Meghna has written it and the way she has communicated it. (It was so powerful that) I didnt need any glycerine. I just remembered the lines. I was naturally kind of very disturbed and choked. Daayra releases in cinemas on September 18.

Orry has given fans a glimpse into his 45-day stint on Khatron Ke Khiladi by sharing pictures of the room he stayed in during the shoot. Taking to Instagram, Orry reflected on the space that became an unexpected part of his daily life, documenting the routines, long days, exhaustion and moments that unfolded behind the scenes. Describing just how much the room became a part of his life, Orry revealed that it was his bedroom, dressing room, dining room, office, gym, coffee shop and even his breakdown room. What started as a temporary space eventually became a familiar environment where he spent almost every moment of his 45-day journey. In his note, Orry wrote, To me home is not a place you get to choose, to me home is the place you lay your head down rest. He went on to reflect on the things he now misses, including the mess, the silence, the familiar corridor and the people around him. He also shared, I even miss the person I was inside, but mostly I miss the purpose I had when I lived here. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Orhan Awatramani (@orry) Interestingly, Orry revealed that while he was living there, he spent much of his time counting down the days until he could leave. However, after the 45-day experience came to an end, he found himself missing the very routine he once wanted to escape. His room may have been temporary, but the memories and version of himself he discovered during his Khatron Ke Khiladi journey appear to have stayed with him.

At Least 5 Killed, Several Injured After Massive Blast At Firecracker Factory In UP

Actress Avika Gor has opened up about her experience on Khatron Ke Khiladi Season 15 days after her elimination from the stunt-based reality show. Reflecting on the experience, Avika said the show has changed the way she looks at life, fear, challenges and situations beyond her control. Taking to Instagram, the Balika Vadhu actor spoke about the difference between watching a stunt from the comfort of home and actually being in the middle of a high-pressure challenge. She admitted that she sometimes finds herself wondering whether she could have performed better had she been in the same situation. Theres something Ive realised about myself while watching Khatron Ke Khiladi after my elimination. I catch myself thinking, If I were there, I wouldnt have given up. I would have pushed harder. I would have done better. Basically, sitting comfortably on my sofa, suddenly Im an expert Khatron contestant. And then I remind myself: Im watching from the comfort of my own life. I know the outcome. I know what happens next. Im not actually in that moment, with the pressure, the fear, the adrenaline, and a stunt staring me in the face. Its very easy to become the hero of a situation from the outside, she wrote. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Avika Gor (@avikagor) Avika also acknowledged how difficult it has been to move on from her early elimination. When something matters deeply to us, we replay it, imagine different choices, and create a version of the story that never happened. And sometimes, our imagination gives us a much better performance than reality ever got the chance to. Maybe thats why being eliminated so early has been difficult for me to completely let go of. Somewhere inside me, theres still that girl who believes, I had so much more to give. This marked Avikas second appearance on Khatron Ke Khiladi. She had previously participated in the ninth season at the age of 21. Comparing both experiences, she said the show had a different lesson for her this time. I went in thinking I was there to face fears and perform stunts, but I came out understanding myself a little differently. Coming back this time meant so much because, perhaps, a part of me wanted to meet that younger version of myself again and maybe finish something that had always felt unfinished. But this time, Khatron is teaching me something very different. Avika further reflected on accepting outcomes that cannot be changed. The first time, Khatron changed my perspective on who I was and what I wanted to become. This time, it is teaching me how to live with what I cannot control. During her elimination stunt, Avika competed against Orry. She completed the challenge in more than 13 minutes, while Orry finished in just under 10 minutes, resulting in her exit from the show. Hosted by filmmaker Rohit Shetty, Khatron Ke Khiladi Season 15 features celebrities including Rubina Dilaik, Rithvik Dhanjani, Farhan Bhatt and Karan Wahi, among others.
