Digital Desk | Bengaluru, Oct 14 (IANS) Karnataka Water Resources Minister N. Cheluvarayaswamy on Wednesday accused Union Minister for Heavy Industries and Steel H.D. Kumaraswamy of showing sympathy towards rape accused former Hassan MP Prajwal Revanna while ignoring the plight of the women allegedly victimised by him in the Hassan pen drive case. It can be noted that former JD(S) MP Prajwal Revanna is Kumaraswamy's nephew. Prajwal Revanna, who is also the grandson of former Prime Minister H.D. Deve Gowda, is convicted in a rape case and currently lodged in Bengaluru Central Jail. Cheluvarayaswamy said Kumaraswamy should file a complaint if he had information about those responsible for distributing the pen drives, assuring that action would be taken and an investigation could be initiated. H.D. Kumaraswamy seems to think Prajwal Revanna is an innocent boy. He asks who was behind the Hassan pen drive controversy. Let him file a complaint against those who distributed the pen drives, and action can be taken. If he files a complaint, I will personally request the Chief Minister to order an investigation, Cheluvarayaswamy said. The Minister said the Union Minister appeared to have sympathy for Prajwal Revanna but not for the hundreds of women who allegedly suffered injustice because of him. He has sympathy for Prajwal Revanna, but not for the hundreds of women who suffered injustice because of him. What about the lives of those women? Where are they today? What is the condition of their families? What has happened to their personal lives? Does he know the hell they are going through? he asked. Cheluvarayaswamy said the Congress had refrained from repeatedly raising the Hassan case, considering its sensitivity, but accused Kumaraswamy of bringing up the issue repeatedly. It can be recalled that Union Minister for Heavy Industries and Steel, H.D. Kumaraswamy, on Tuesday questioned the timing of developments related to rape accused former MP, Prajwal Revannas prison transfer, alleging that such issues were being brought to the fore to divert public attention when matters such as the Bidadi farmers protest came up for discussion. Addressing a press conference in Bengaluru, Kumaraswamy asked what the authorities had been doing for nearly one-and-a-half years regarding the alleged incidents at Parappana Agrahara Central Prison and why the issue surfaced when the Bidadi farmers protest began. Referring to media reports about Prajwal Revanna being shifted to Hindalga prison and subsequently brought back, he sought clarity on who had ordered the transfer, who had directed his return and who had made the relevant phone calls. He urged the state government to provide answers. Kumaraswamy clarified that he had not criticised the formation of a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe the Prajwal Revanna case. However, he insisted that the same level of seriousness should be shown in other cases as well. Questioning the progress of the investigation into the circulation of pen drives linked to the case, he asked how many people had been arrested for producing and distributing them, how many women had filed complaints and what the investigation had revealed.

Over the weekend, Imran Khan was back in the news after he was detained by the Mumbai Police for attempting to participate in a protest demanding the removal of India's Chief Election Commissioner, Gyanesh Kumar. Imran uploaded a picture of himself in a police van on Instagram, which quickly went viral. It also brought renewed attention to some of his popular films and songs. One track that was widely revisited over the weekend was 'Bhaag DK Bose' from his 2011 cult classic, Delhi Belly. The film continues to enjoy a loyal following, thanks to its memorable songs, performances, sharp writing and, importantly, its unabashed use of abusive language, which was quite rare in mainstream Hindi cinema at the time. Bollywood Hungama recently spoke exclusively to Delhi Belly director Abhinay Deo as part of the promotions of his upcoming film, Doosra. When asked about the tremendous demand for Delhi Belly 2, he confessed, Every week, I come up with one idea for the sequel. But there are some technical challenges. At that time, it was UTV who had made it. Now, Disney has acquired UTV. If Disney agrees to make Delhi Belly 2, they may tell me to remove the abuses and make it a clean entertainer. How can a film like Delhi Belly be clean? Yeh ek hi aisi film hai jo kabhi clean nahin ho sakti! The other challenge is that writer Akshat Verma took 9 years to write Delhi Belly. We dont know how long hell take to write the sequel. Abhinay continued, Nevertheless, we are trying. I speak to Aamir Khan (producer of Delhi Belly) almost every month, wherein I ask him, Bhai saab, can we do Delhi Belly 2? (smiles). He would tell me, Yaar tu Akshat ko pakad. Usko bol script finish karein. I think Akshat is writing something. Lets see. When asked if he was also in touch with Imran Khan, Abhinay Deo replied, Yes, very much. Hes such a sweet fellow. I actually did speak to him about another film, completely different from Delhi Belly. However, he was busy shooting for Adhure Hum Adhure Tum and hence he couldnt do it.

CJP receiving funds from US: American singer Mary Millben claims foreign plot behind Delhi stir
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 14 (IANS) American singer Mary Millben on Wednesday made an explosive claim about the Delhi protests, alleging that the recently formed political satirical outfit Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) was being funded by select donors from the United States. Her assertions come amid growing murmurs of foreign conspiracy behind the demonstrations by the CJP and opposition parties, to remove the Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) over alleged electoral roll tampering and arbitrary SIR exercise. Without naming CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke, Mary Millben also explained the modus operandi of such US-based donors to ignite chaos and unrest in the nations they want to target. These select donors have a pattern globally - target conservative global leaders, find an U.S. educated person from the country, radicalize them, send them back to the country, and fund them to start chaos and destruction, she said in a post on X. She, however, added that such plots have largely failed, but they do impact the development and governance of the respective nation. Notably, Abhijeet Dipke is a graduate from Boston University in the US and shifted base to India after his satirical taunt at the ruling BJP dispensation took social media by storm, with crores of netizens showing overwhelming support on Instagram. The American singer also expressed support for the Modi government and made an appeal to Indian nationals to speak out and foil any attempts by foreign forces to disrupt governance in India. This is not the time to be silent, she stated in the post, while urging the young patriots to rise to the occasion. Millben, known for her patriotic performances, came into the spotlight during Indias 75th Independence Day celebrations in 2022. A year later, she performed Indias national anthem during PM Modis visit to the US. Further, calling for a counter-movement, the singer also appealed to the young voices to rise and organise peacefully to defeat the disruptive forces. It is time for a new voice in India, born, raised, educated on the soil of India, to RISE UP, organize, and peacefully protest the disruptive spirit of the Cockroach Party. There should always be a counter movement to uphold democracy and freedom, she said in the post.

A physical altercation between Kushal Tanwar, popularly known as Gullu, and Nakul Dhull has sparked a fresh controversy inside the Bigg Boss 20 house. Following the confrontation, Gullus team has accused Nakul of entering the Salman Khan-hosted reality show with an intention to pick a fight with him and has questioned how details of the incident allegedly surfaced before it took place. Tuesdays episode appeared to hint at some history of conflict between the two contestants. During the confrontation, Nakul was heard threatening Gullu, saying, Gurgaon mein aa ke marunga, jab bole tab. Gullu responded by calling him out, saying, Story kaa badmash hai tu. Nakul then referred to an alleged earlier incident involving Gullu, saying, Goa bhaga tha na tu. Mere gaon ke ladke aaye the na, Goa bhag gaya tha tu. As the argument escalated, Mahhi Vij intervened and remarked, Ye firak mein hai do din se maarne ki. View this post on Instagram A post shared by JioHotstar Reality (@jiohotstarreality) Gullus team questions how fight was allegedly leaked beforehand Following the altercation, Gullus team addressed the incident through his social media channel. The team questioned why someone with alleged unresolved issues with Gullu was allowed to enter the reality show. This is so unfair. How are people like this even allowed to enter the house in the first place, and for what reason? the team wrote. Gullus team further alleged that Nakul had entered the house with a plan to fight with Gullu and questioned whether the confrontation was pre-planned. The team also raised questions about reports surrounding the altercation allegedly emerging on Saturday, a day before the fight reportedly took place on Sunday. Physical altercation between him and Gullu was leaked on Saturday when the actual fight happened on Sunday. How could such specific information about an incident be out a day before it even happened? Because, at that point, the incident hadnt even taken place in real time, the team stated. Team demands action against Nakul Dhull Gullus team also condemned what it described as unnecessary physical violence and an alleged breach of personal boundaries inside the Bigg Boss 20 house. Secondly, unnecessary physical violence and crossing someones personal boundaries are absolutely unacceptable. Bigg Boss is a show, not a place where people should be allowed to threaten or physically attack others, the team said. Maintaining that Gullu had entered the reality show to participate in the competition rather than be targeted, his team called for action against Nakul. It referred to Nakul as a goon and concluded its statement with a demand for his eviction.

Brooke Shields celebrates 12 years of Jane The Virgin: Had so much fun playing River Fields
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 14 (IANS) Hollywood actress Brooke Shields is celebrating 12 years of the comedy-drama series Jane The Virgin, looking back on her experience of playing River Fields. Taking to Instagram, Shields said she had so much fun playing the character alongside the shows cast as she marked the 12th anniversary of the series premiere. Cant believe its been 12 years today since #JaneTheVirgin premiered!! I had so much fun playing River Fields with this cast, she wrote as the caption. Jane the Virgin is an American romantic comedy-drama and satirical telenovela developed by Jennie Snyder Urman. The series concluded in 2019. It is a loose adaptation of the Venezuelan telenovela Juana la virgen created by Perla Faras. It stars Gina Rodriguez as Jane Gloriana Villanueva, a devout 23-year-old Latina virgin who becomes pregnant after an accidental artificial insemination by her gynecologist. It parodies common tropes and devices in Latin American telenovelas. Beginning with the fourth episode of season three, the series's on-screen title card was modified, with The Virgin crossed out in favor of a comedic substitution corresponding to each episode. This mirrored the storyline, in which Jane is no longer a virgin. As for Shields, she started modeling at 11 months old and gained notoriety for her leading role in Louis Malle's Pretty Baby, in which she appeared in nude scenes shot when she was 12. She continued modeling into her late teens and starred in several dramas in the 1980s, including The Blue Lagoon and Franco Zeffirelli's Endless Love. In the 1990s, Shields returned to acting and appeared in minor roles in films. She also starred in the NBC sitcoms Suddenly Susan and Lipstick Jungle. In 2017, Shields returned with a major recurring role in Law & Order: Special Victims Unit in the show's 19th season. Shields voiced Beverly Goodman in the animated series Mr. Pickles and its spin-off Momma Named Me Sheriff.
From Lords to Allahabad: Mohammad Kaifs Memorable Homecoming Story
There are sporting victories that remain memorable for what happened on the field. And then there are those that become part of a citys folklore because of what happens when the hero returns home. For Mohammad Kaif , the greatest moment of his cricket career came at Lords on July 13, 2002. But the moment that perhaps stayed with him most vividly happened thousands of kilometres away, in Allahabad. India had chased down 326 against England in the NatWest Trophy final, recovering from 146 for five to win by two wickets. At the centre of that extraordinary recovery was the 21-year-old Kaif, unbeaten on 87, sharing a match-winning 121-run partnership with Yuvraj Singh. Lords had made Kaif a national hero. Allahabad turned him into something he had never imagined. I was a shy person, but I felt like Amitabh Bachchan that day, Kaif later recalled. The comparison was not accidental. As a child growing up in Allahabad, Kaif had watched Amitabh Bachchan arrive in an open jeep after winning an election in his hometown. Years later, after producing one of the most celebrated innings in Indian cricket history, Kaif found himself travelling through the same kind of crowd-filled streets of Allahabad, standing in an open jeep while thousands came out to celebrate him. But the comedy of his homecoming had actually begun on the night of the Lords final itself. When India collapsed to 146 for five, Kaifs father Mohammad Tarif and elder brother Saif had lost hope. Expecting a heavy defeat, they locked up the house and went to a local Allahabad cinema hall to watch Shah Rukh Khans Devdas. While they sat in the darkness of the theatre, Kaif was busy producing the innings of his life in London. When Tarif and Saif emerged from the cinema, they were stunned. Allahabads streets were suddenly alive with firecrackers, celebrations and chanting crowds. Confused, they rushed home only to find a massive gathering outside their gate. They had to knock on their own door and look around to confirm that it was indeed their boy, Honey, Kaifs pet name, who had just won the match for India. The family had gone to the cinema expecting to return after an Indian defeat. Instead, they came back to discover that their son had become the hero of the city. At Lords, England had made 325, with captain Nasser Hussain scoring 115. India began well but slipped from 106 without loss to 146 for five. Then came Yuvraj and Kaif, who added 121 and transformed the chase. After Yuvraj fell, Kaif stayed until the end, guiding India home with the lower order. India needed six runs from seven balls and then two from the final over. Kaif and Zaheer Khan eventually scrambled the winning runs, with an overthrow completing one of the most dramatic finishes in Indian ODI history. Kaif remained unbeaten on 87 from 75 balls and was named Player of the Match. The celebrations at Lords were spectacular. But what awaited Kaif in Allahabad was something altogether different. When he returned home, the streets around his neighbourhood were packed. People poured out to see their local hero. An open-jeep procession covering only about five to six kilometres took nearly three to four hours because of the crowds. There were garlands, sweets, cheers and people lining the roads. There was also something almost poetic about the way Allahabad celebrated him. As a boy, Kaif had watched Amitabh Bachchan being treated like a larger-than-life figure during an open-jeep procession. Now, after one unforgettable evening at Lords, he was experiencing something similar himself. That is why his description I felt like Amitabh Bachchan captures more than the scale of the celebration. It captures the journey of a boy from Allahabad who had grown up watching heroes from a distance and suddenly found himself being treated as one. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories For Allahabad, however, the significance was more personal. The city had produced many sportspersons, but Kaif became its ultimate cricketing hero. He would go on to captain Uttar Pradesh to their maiden Ranji Trophy title in 2006, defeating Bengal in a memorable final, and later play 13 Tests, 125 ODIs and 177 first-class matches.

Ayurvedic herb garden inaugurated at Mahatma Gandhi
A garden of traditional Ayurvedic herbs has been inaugurated at Phoenix Settlement in Durban, South Africa, a historic site established by Mahatma Gandhi in 1904 during his early years as a lawyer in the country. The inauguration took place on Sunday (11) and coincided with the India-South Africa Traditional Medicines Symposium and Exhibition. The event was jointly organised by the Consulate General of India in Durban and the Commission for Religious and Linguistic Rights, with support from Indias Ministry of Ayush. Work on the herbal garden began around 2 October, marking Gandhis birth anniversary, before culminating in its inauguration nine days later. The settlement continues to support community development projects under the Phoenix Settlement Trust, which is headed by Gandhis granddaughter, Ela Gandhi. A garden inspired by Gandhis ideas The new garden brings traditional medicinal herbs to a site associated with Gandhis ideas on health, sustainability and community living. Consul General of India in Durban, Neetin Subash Yeola, highlighted the continuing relevance of Gandhis approach to environmental protection and sustainable development. Gandhiji's ideas of sustainable growth and environmental protection are of immense significance today as the world prepares for Climate Action, Yeola said. The initiative also reflects the historical relationship between the settlement and self-sufficient living. During Gandhis time there, he and his followers grew their own fruits, vegetables and herbs. The addition of an Ayurvedic herb garden builds on that tradition while introducing a space dedicated to traditional medicinal plants and their place in community well-being. Community welcomes a new healing garden Asha Ramgobin, Ela Gandhis daughter and a board member of the Phoenix Settlement Trust, said the local community had welcomed the development. She said there was considerable excitement among people using the settlements facilities about the addition of a garden focused on healing. In the spirit of Gandhiji's ideas on health and well-being, the Gandhi Development Trust and the Phoenix Settlement Trust, in partnership with the Consul General of India in Durban, opened this Ayurvedic and traditional medicinal herb garden, Ramgobin said. The project brings together the Gandhi Development Trust, the Phoenix Settlement Trust and the Indian consulate, highlighting cooperation between community organisations and Indian representatives in South Africa. Preserving the legacy of Phoenix settlement Founded in 1904, Phoenix Settlement was an important part of Gandhis life and the development of his philosophy. It was here that he developed ideas associated with Satyagraha, or the power of truth; Sarvodaya, meaning service to all; and Ahimsa, the principle of non-violence. The settlements history of growing food and herbs reflected an emphasis on self-reliance and living in closer connection with the environment. The new garden adds another dimension to the sites community work, bringing traditional Ayurvedic plants into a setting shaped by Gandhis legacy. Its inauguration also formed part of wider India-South Africa engagement on traditional medicine, connecting cultural heritage, community development and discussions about health and well-being.

Rahul, Batman And The Battle For Gen Z Space; Is India Ready For Superhero Politics?
Rahul Gandhis Batman rebrand has moved from meme culture to political theatre. The joke began during an Instagram interaction, when he said nobody had seen him and Batman in the same room. Congress turned the line into posters and edited videos. Then came the spectacle: during an Opposition march in Delhi, young protesters handed Batman masks to Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge inside a bus. The protest targeted Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over the electoral-roll revision debate. The image travelled fast. The politics behind it was serious. The branding was not. Supporters saw humour and youth connect. Critics saw a gimmick. Union Minister Jayant Chaudhary compared the scene with Gotham and questioned superhero politics in Delhi. The larger test is Gen Z. Young voters understand irony, memes and pop culture. They recognise forced relatability. A Batman mask can attract attention. It cannot replace organisation, credibility, policy or sustained political work.
Aksharaa Haasan: Grateful to be born to my parents!
Digital Desk | Chennai, Oct 13 (IANS) Actress Aksharaa Haasan, who is the younger daughter of actor and politician Kamal Haasan and his wife Sarika, has now shared some rare pictures of her parents holding her as a child and expressed gratitude for having been born to them. Taking to her Instagram page to share the rare black and white pictures in which she is seen in the arms of her parents, Aksharaa Haasan wrote, Over the years these pictures are one of the best gifts I could have ever received. She went on to say, Thank you to Shyam Tekwani uncle for taking these precious pictures. Grateful to be born to my parents. @actor_sarika @ikamalhaasan So proud of my legacy. Made me! Strength is a feeling and not just genes. On the work front, Akshara Haasan was last seen in the film Simulacra. The actress had said that her role in the film had demanded a different level of maturity from her. She had also said that the role had allowed her to explore a different side of her as an actor. For the unaware, Akshara Haasan had played a character called Nivi in the film. Talking about her role, Akshara Haasan had said, Nivi is a very different character that Ive played. This time I feel it required a different maturity level as a person and therefore a character. With how layered the story is, I discovered a side of me as an actor and got to explore emotions and complexities of emotions colliding. It challenged me as an actor. I truly enjoyed performing the character Nivi. The film was set in an imminent near-future where human lives are governed by neural brain chips. Simulacra explored a world where tech giants allowed people to tailor, rewrite, or completely erase their personal memories. The plot followed two pedestrians, Nayan (played by Satyajeet Dubey) and Nivi (played by Akshara Haasan), who cross paths in a society increasingly reliant on trans-humanism.

Yoodlee Films has announced Party Animals, an upcoming Hindi comedy that brings friendship, questionable decisions and a night of escalating chaos to the big screen. Starring Viraj Ghelani and Arjun Tanwar, the film is set against the backdrop of a New Years Eve party in Mumbai, where a seemingly ordinary night out takes a series of unexpected turns. The film is scheduled to release in cinemas on November 20, 2026. Set in Mumbai, Party Animals follows Mann Patel (Viraj Ghelani) and Armaan Khanna (Arjun Tanwar), childhood best friends whose lives have taken different paths. Their reunion sets off a chain of events involving romantic complications, petty disagreements that escalate into full-blown raadas and attempts to resolve problems that only create more trouble. With cops, goons, a party bus and even a drunk horse thrown into the mix, the film promises a comedy built around a night that spirals out of control. The makers draw inspiration from Hollywood comedies such as The Hangover, Superbad and 21 Jump Street, bringing the spirit of friendship-driven humour and increasingly chaotic situations to an Indian setting. The film explores themes of FOMO, growing up and the poor decisions that can accompany the freedom of adulthood, with its ensemble of characters navigating the consequences of their choices. Speaking about the project, Viraj Ghelani said, Party Animals is a one of a kind movie. Its a full-on masti film, and Im really excited for audiences to experience it. Its packed with friendship, madness and situations that just keep getting crazier. Theres so much energy and relatability in this world, and I cant wait for everyone to watch it on the big screen. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Yoodlee Films (@yoodleefilms) Siddharth Anand Kumar, who is producing the film alongside Vikram Mehra, added, With Party Animals, we wanted to have some fun with the idea of what a film is supposed to be and how it is supposed to talk about itself. The film is unapologetically chaotic, irreverent and very much in on the joke. Were not going to pretend that every decision these characters make is a good one. In fact, the worse their decisions get, the more fun things become. Sometimes, you just have to let the madness do its thing. Directed by Ravi Chhabriya, Party Animals is produced by Vikram Mehra and Siddharth Anand Kumar under the Yoodlee Films banner. The film is written by Ali Haji, Khush Mullick and Veer Panchal. The ensemble cast also includes Pragati Nagpal, Naqiyah Haji, Alam Khan, Saqib Ayub, Kamlesh Sawant, Anil Charanjeett, Aaron Koul, Vijay Patkar and Manoj Joshi. Party Animals will arrive in cinemas on November 20, 2026. Also Read: Viraj Ghelani to tie the knot with longtime girlfriend Palak Khimavat in Mumbai on December 12
Arjun Bijlani celebrates wife Neha Swamis birthday with a loved-up post
Arjun took to his official Instagram handle and posted a video montage of some unseen memorable moments with his wife over the years.
Highlights: Radhika wears a Kalamkari ensemble by Mayyur Girotra and Swadesh. The skirt features Krishna Leela and Tree of Life motifs. Peacocks, sacred cows and lotus blossoms decorate the textile. Zardozi, pitta, dabka and appliqu add intricate detailing. The look combines traditional Indian craft with contemporary couture. Indian business tycoon family's Radhika Merchant Ambanis latest fashion appearance was about more than an elaborate outfit. At Swadeshs first anniversary celebration in Mumbai, she wore a corset-and-skirt ensemble that brought together traditional Indian textile art and modern couture. Created by designer Mayyur Girotra in collaboration with Swadesh, the outfit featured a structured, strapless corset paired with a floor-length skirt and a flowing dupatta. While the fitted bodice gave the look a contemporary silhouette, the skirt was the real centerpiece, covered in hand-painted Kalamkari artwork. The textile featured earthy shades of gold and brown, with touches of pink and blue. Metallic embroidery added definition to the intricate designs, allowing the painted motifs to stand out. See on Instagram Krishna Leela And The Tree Of Life The skirts most striking feature was its storytelling. Its painted compositions drew inspiration from Krishna Leela, depicting episodes associated with the life and stories of Lord Krishna, alongside Kalpavriksha, commonly known as the Tree of Life. Peacocks, sacred cows, lotus blossoms and floral vines appeared throughout the fabric. Together, these motifs brought devotional imagery and elements of the natural world into the design. The Tree of Life is a recurring symbol in traditional art, often associated with growth, continuity and the interconnectedness of life. In this ensemble, it complemented the Krishna-inspired scenes, giving the skirt a visual narrative rather than making it simply a decorative piece. The combination also reflected how Indian textiles have long been used to preserve stories, beliefs and artistic traditions through generations. What Makes Kalamkari Special? Kalamkari is a traditional Indian textile art known for its detailed, hand-drawn designs and the use of natural dyes. The Srikalahasti tradition of Andhra Pradesh is particularly associated with religious and mythological storytelling. Unlike a fabric that relies entirely on printed patterns, Kalamkari involves considerable artistic skill, with intricate compositions created through drawing and coloring techniques. The result can turn a garment into a canvas for stories drawn from mythology, nature and cultural memory. Radhikas skirt brought this tradition into a contemporary luxury setting. The hand-painted compositions remained central to the design, while metallic detailing added a more elaborate finish. See on Instagram Traditional Craft Meets Contemporary Couture Girotra and the Swadesh artisans further embellished the textile using zardozi, pitta, dabka and appliqu techniques. These details framed the painted artwork and introduced texture without overwhelming the original designs. The corset created a contrast with the skirts rich detailing and flowing shape. Its fitted structure gave the ensemble a modern edge, while the dupatta softened the silhouette. That balance was central to the look. Instead of presenting traditional textile art as something reserved for heritage garments, the ensemble showed how it can be incorporated into contemporary occasionwear. Swadeshs anniversary celebration also placed the outfit within a wider conversation about Indian craftsmanship and luxury. Traditional techniques can remain relevant in modern fashion when designers work with artisans to preserve the details that make each textile distinctive. See on Instagram A Celebration Of Indian Artisans Radhikas ensemble highlighted the skill involved in bringing hand-painted designs, embroidery and appliqu together in one garment. Every element contributed to a larger composition, from the mythological scenes to the floral patterns and metallic embellishments. The result was a look that connected Indian artistic traditions with contemporary couture. More than an elaborate skirt, it offered a reminder of how textiles can carry stories across generations while finding a place in modern wardrobes.

Ugreen MagFlow Pro 3-in-1 25W review: Fast charging with a cooling fan
Macworld At a glance Expert's Rating Pros Up to 25W Qi2 iPhone charging Charges iPhone, Apple Watch and AirPods Active cooling with manual fan control Adjustable charging pads and informative display Includes 45W power adapter Cons Audible fan may disturb light sleepers Expensive compared with basic 3-in-1 chargers No additional USB-C charging port Our Verdict This is a good-looking 3-in-1 charging stand for your iPhone, Watch, and AirPods case. For each device, its as fast as they come, and an (albeit audible) cooling fan can be switched on for the speediest charging results. Price When Reviewed This value will show the geolocated pricing text for product undefined Best Pricing Today Price When Reviewed $159.99 Best Prices Today: Ugreen MagFlow Pro Magnetic Wireless Charging Stand (3-in-1, Qi2 25W) Retailer Price $129.99 View Deal $159.99 View Deal Ugreen $159.99 View Deal Price comparison from over 24,000 stores worldwide What is it? A premium 3-in-1 Qi2 wireless charging stand with active cooling and a built-in power display. Who is it best for? iPhone, Apple Watch and AirPods owners who want a stylish desktop charger with fast wireless charging and detailed power information. Who should skip it? Light sleepers, frequent travelers and users who dont need active cooling or a charging display. Ugreens MagFlow Pro 3-in-1 Magnetic Wireless Charging Stand 25W looks different to most wireless charging stands on the market. Its not a classic charging tree design like the Anker Prime 3-in-1 MagGo Charging Station or Belkin BoostCharge Pro 3-in-1 Charging Stand , nor a squat stand, flat pod, or cube. It closely resembles a modern-day reimagining of the old-style Shure Elvis microphone, with its large silver circular iPhone-charging module ringed with air vents on the sides and a large fan at the rear. Its not shy of being a statement piece on your desk or nightstand, or frightened to show off its iPhone cooling tech. The iPhone charging module can tilt more than 90 degrees. The Watch module can lie flat or be raised for Nightstand Mode. How fast does the MagFlow Pro charge each device? iPhone: up to 25W (iPhone 16 and later); 15W (earlier iPhones) Apple Watch: 5W AirPods case: 5W Those specs mean it should fast-charge each device, although speeds will decrease when all three are used simultaneouslywith a maximum output of 32.5W. It ships with its own 45W wall charger so is well covered by that. Although the MagFlow Pro 3-in-1 doesnt include a spare USB-C port itselflook to Mophies StealthCharge 4-in-1 Charging Stand for extra ports and cablesyou could simply use the Ugreen wall charger for your MacBook, although not as speedily as the iPhone, Watch, or AirPods. If 25W charging can be sustained, an iPhone could reach 50% in around 30 minutes; 45 minutes at 15W. An Apple Watch, such as the Series 11, should charge from 0-50% in about 20 minutes. (We use the 0-50% measurement as batteries charge slower as they get fuller, so the first 50% of a charge is the best comparison when testing different units.) Simon Jary How does the MagFlow Pro stay cool? All that high-powered charging generates heat, especially for the iPhone that can reach 25W for iPhones 16 and later (15W for earlier iPhones). Most gadgets dont like hot temperatures that can damage battery life and the iPhone has built-in safeguards that throttle the incoming power if it feels that its getting too warm. That means the 25W might be slowed to 15W or less, and even turned off until the phone cools down by itself. To reduce the threat of the iPhone dialling back the power and therefore the charging speed, Ugreen employs active cooling via the built-in fan. Ugreen calls the 15dB fan ultra quiet but you can hear it humming with a rushing wind sound. True, its nothing like setting off a hair dryer but its definitely audible. When youre not in a rush to charge your iPhone, you can turn the cooling fan off with one of the easy-access side buttons (see below). This is certainly recommended if charging by your bedside at night, unless youre a white-noise enthusiast. Charging overnight doesnt require the highest speed anyway, so theres no need for the fan as the iPhone will take in power as it feels fit while you sleep or while youre working at your desk. But you can turn on the cooling blaster when youre in a real hurry for power. Simon Jary What does the MagFlows display show? Theres a trend for chargers and charging stands to include a real-time display, and the MagFlow Pros display is on the front of the arm that suspends the iPhone charger. The TFT display shows charging wattage for each device, charging surface temperature, and cooling mode. Along the side of the arm are two buttons that you use to switch off the charger and its cooling mode, plus switch from one info-screen to another. Im not sure many people other than gadget geeks and tech reviewersquite the Venn diagramare going to pay much attention to such in-depth charging data, but its handy if youre a power data control freak. The MagFlow Pros Apple Watch charging module can lay flat when not in use, and be raised to work in Nightstand Mode. Simon Jary Whats it like to use every day? The MagFlow Pro 3-in-1 Charging Stand is an attractiveelevatedchargingstandforadeskornightstand with tilting iPhone-charging pad, a non-slip AirPods case charging module at the front, and an adjustable Apple Watch charger sat at the back. It has a small footprint, with a 4.6-inch (117mm) base diameter. It weighs 19.1oz (541g). Charging stands require a decent heft to stay stable.

Mohanlal reviews Ajay Devgn starrer Drishyam The Conclusion; Star Studios thanks him
Mohanlal has shared his reaction to Ajay Devgn-starrer Drishyam The Conclusion, praising the film for bringing the much-loved Hindi thriller franchise to what he described as a befitting end. The Malayalam superstar, who played Georgekutty in the original Drishyam films, took to social media to share his appreciation for the third instalment of the Hindi franchise, which arrived in theatres on October 2. In a video message, Mohanlal revealed that he had watched the film and congratulated the team for their work on the concluding chapter. He said, I watched Drishyam The Conclusion. And I am truly impressed with the way they have brough t this much loved journey to a befitting end. Congratulations to Abhishek Pathak, Kumar Mangat Pathak, Ajay Devgn and the entire cast & crew on a job so well done. Star Studios, the production banner associated with the film, reshared Mohanlals video on its official social media handles and thanked the actor for his appreciation. The note read, Thank you so much for your kind appreciation, Mohanlal Sir ????#Lalettan @mohanlal. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Star Studio18 (@starstudio18) The Drishyam franchise originated in Malayalam cinema with the 2013 film directed by Jeethu Joseph and starring Mohanlal as Georgekutty. Its success led to remakes in several Indian languages, including Hindi, where Ajay Devgn took on the role of Vijay Salgaonkar. The Hindi adaptations went on to establish a strong following of their own, with audiences drawn to the franchises suspense-driven storytelling and its central family drama. However, the Hindi third instalment takes a different route from its Malayalam counterpart. While the original Malayalam franchise continued its story with a third film earlier this year, the Hindi version was conceived as a definitive conclusion. Directed by Abhishek Pathak and produced by Kumar Mangat Pathak, Drishyam The Conclusion brings Vijay Salgaonkars battle to protect his family to a close rather than following the narrative direction of the Malayalam film. The Hindi film opened in theatres over the Gandhi Jayanti festive period and benefited from the franchises established audience, positive word-of-mouth and sustained theatrical interest. Its run further reinforced the popularity of the suspense-thriller series among Hindi film audiences. Mohanlals appreciation adds a notable endorsement from the actor who first brought the character of Georgekutty to life, acknowledging the Hindi teams decision to give Vijay Salgaonkars story its own ending.

Terence Lewis on making his film debut Speaking about his association with the film, Terence said its subject and the questions it raises about society were among the reasons he chose the project. The film draws on the symbolism of Mahishasur to explore the evils that persist in contemporary society. Making my film debut with Aaj Ka Mahishasur is a very special experience for me. What drew me to this film is its intriguing and thought-provoking story. It goes beyond what we traditionally associate with Mahishasur and explores the harsh realities of the society we live in today, he said. He further explained that the story also examines the problems people may overlook within themselves. There are evils around us, but there are also those within us that we often choose to ignore. Being part of a story that has something meaningful to say makes this debut even more special for me, Terence added. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Terence Lewis (@terence_here) Jagdambe Rani marks the Navratri launch The devotional song 'Jagdambe Rani' was released alongside the films first look. The song draws on the religious significance of Navratri, which celebrates the victory of Goddess Durga over Mahishasur and symbolises the triumph of good over evil. The track has been composed by Amol and Abhishek, with lyrics by Abhishek Talented. Dev Negi, Divya Kumar, Amol Shrivastava and Abhishek Talented have lent their voices to the song. Through Aaj Ka Mahishasur, the makers aim to connect the mythological symbolism of the festival with issues in contemporary society. The films central theme encourages viewers to reflect on the forms of wrongdoing that exist around them, as well as those they may need to confront within themselves.

Aamrapali Dubey recently discussed one of the most talked-about aspects of her personal life during a conversation with Mahhi Vij on Bigg Boss 20. The actress was asked about her relationship status and her equation with Bhojpuri actor Dinesh Lal Yadav, popularly known as Nirahua, with whom she has shared a popular on-screen pairing for years. The conversation began when Mahhi asked Aamrapali, Boyfriend nahi hai? Aamrapali revealed that she had been single for several years. When Mahhi suggested that her weight loss could help her find a partner, Aamrapali dismissed it, saying, Motape se boyfriend nahi hai aisa nahi hai. There are many people who like motapa. Aamrapali Dubey talks about dating in Bhojpuri industry Mahhi then wondered if there were no single men in the Bhojpuri film industry. Aamrapali brought up Pawan Singh, noting that he was going through a divorce. She also admitted that she and Pawan did not share a particularly good equation. The conversation eventually moved towards Nirahua. Mahhi recalled seeing Aamrapali with the actor and his children in Bandra, leading to questions about his personal life and marriage. Speaking about Nirahua's wife, Aamrapali said, She is a housewife. Arranged marriage. Wo actor bane usse pehle hi unki shaadi ho gayi thi. Mahhi then asked whether Nirahua had married only once and whether he had ever been in a relationship before. Aamrapali's response appeared to keep the conversation light, as she said, Girlfriends toh rahi hi hongi. View this post on Instagram A post shared by JioHotstar Reality (@jiohotstarreality) Mahhi later explained to her friends that she had deliberately approached the topic indirectly rather than asking Aamrapali about the rumours directly. Recalling the exchange, she said, Mujhe ek point pe aana tha uske saath. Maine kaha, maine toh tumhare bahut charche sune hain Nirahua ke saath, indirect way mein bola... Aamrapali and Nirahua's long-standing association Rumours about Aamrapali and Nirahua have circulated for several years, largely because of their successful professional partnership and close friendship. The actors first worked together in the 2014 Bhojpuri film Nirahua Hindustani and later appeared in several films together. Their on-screen chemistry became popular among Bhojpuri cinema audiences, while their frequent collaborations and off-screen bond also led to speculation about the nature of their relationship. However, Aamrapali has maintained over the years that she and Nirahua share a close friendship.

Murad Khetani of Cine1 Studios has made a mark in Bollywood with successful films like Kabir Singh (2019), Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 (2022), Animal (2023) and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 (2024). He developed a strong bond with blockbuster filmmaker Atlee while working on Baby John (2024), and the association has now continued with Baththa. The recently released Tamil entertainer stars Vijay Sethupathi in the lead and marks Murad Khetani's foray into Tamil cinema. Produced under the banners of Cine1 Studios, Atlee's A for Apple Studios and Star Studio18, the film has opened a new chapter in the producer's career. In an exclusive interview with Bollywood Hungama, Murad Khetani spoke about Baththa, his experience of working with Vijay Sethupathi, his association with Atlee, the possibility of a Hindi version and a lot more. How has been the response to Baththa? The response has been very encouraging, and it feels great to see the film reaching out to audiences. As a producer, you always hope that the effort and conviction you put into a film connect with people, and thats what makes this journey special. For me, Baththa is also an important film because it marks my first Tamil release, so it will always hold a special place in my heart. Vijay Sethupathi looks in great form. Was he the first choice? Also, how was it working with team Baththa? Vijay Sethupathi sir is a phenomenal actor, and what I love about him is that he brings so much honesty and individuality to every character he plays. His presence adds a lot to the story. Director T Balaji and Vijay sir share a long-standing relationship, and I think that understanding played a very important role in bringing this character to life. When you have that kind of comfort and creative equation, it really reflects on screen. Honestly, we felt that no one could have done this role better than Vijay. It was a wonderful experience working with the entire team of Baththa. T Balaji had a clear vision for the film, Sai Abhyankkar brought a fresh musical energy, and Sai Prithviraj, despite being so young, brought a lovely presence to the screen. Everyone brought their own strengths to the project, and it was a great team to be associated with, especially for my first Tamil release. Tell us about the hair flip done by Vijay Sethupathi repeatedly in the film. Was it inspired by Rajinikanth? The hair flip was essentially a creative decision taken by the director and Vijay sir on the sets. It evolved organically as part of the character and the way Vijay sir chose to portray him. As producers, we believe in giving our directors and actors the creative freedom to explore such nuances and discover what works best. While Rajinikanth sir has made several such signature mannerisms iconic, the hair flip in Baththa was something that emerged naturally during the filmmaking process. View this post on Instagram A post shared by A for Apple Studios (@aforapplestudios) What made you go down South? For me, it was a very natural step, and a lot of credit goes to Atlee sir and the entire team of Baththa. Atlee sir and I share a great bond, and there is a lot of mutual trust and understanding between us. When you have that kind of relationship with someone, it becomes easier to explore new opportunities together. The entire team of Baththa was equally passionate about the film, and that gave me a lot of confidence. I have always believed that good stories go beyond language and geography. For me, it was less about entering a new industry and more about being part of a good film with the right people. Baththa gave me that opportunity, and I am really happy that my first Tamil film has been this experience. This is your second film with Atlee. How has been your bond with him? Working with Atlee sir has been a great experience. He is extremely passionate about cinema and has a very clear understanding of the kind of stories he wants to tell. What I appreciate most about him is his conviction and the energy he brings into a project. Priya Atlee is an equally wonderful producer. Over time, weve become like family, and we share a very special bond. Did you or Atlee ever think of dubbing the film in Hindi? Of course, when you make a film, you always think about how it can reach a wider audience. Hindi is definitely a market we understand well, but I also believe that every film has its own journey. With Baththa, our focus was on telling the story the way it was meant to be told. If we feel that a Hindi version can add value and help the film reach more people, we would certainly be open to exploring it.

UP: Two cars gutted in fire at Indirapuram residential building
Digital Desk | Ghaziabad, Oct 13 (IANS) Two cars were completely gutted, and another was partially damaged after a fire broke out in the stilt parking area of a multi-storey residential building in Gyankhand I, Indirapuram, in Uttar Pradesh's Ghaziabad district on Tuesday. No casualties were reported in the incident. According to the fire department, information about the blaze at Plot No. 154 in Gyankhand I was received around 4.25 a.m. Fire engines were immediately dispatched from the Vaishali Fire Station to bring the situation under control. Given the severity of the fire, three motor fire engines and one water bowser were deployed at the site. Firefighters launched an operation to extinguish the flames and prevent the fire from spreading to other parked vehicles and the residential flats above. However, the fire brigade personnel faced difficulties reaching the spot due to decorations installed in the area for a Jagran event, along with other vehicles obstructing access. The firefighters removed the decorations and cleared the way for the fire engines before beginning the firefighting operation. Two cars were completely destroyed in the blaze. Another car parked nearby sustained partial damage. The prompt response of the fire brigade personnel helped prevent the flames from spreading further. Other vehicles parked in the stilt parking area and the flats on the upper floors of the four-storey building were also protected from the fire. The incident caused concern among residents of the building, although no injuries or casualties were reported. The cause of the fire has not yet been determined. Officials are investigating the incident to establish the circumstances that led to the blaze. Separately, two men trapped inside the mangled cabin of a pickup after it crashed into a parked truck near Masuri on National Highway-9 early on Monday were rescued by fire department personnel, police said. Both had sustained injuries and were admitted to a hospital.

Digital Desk | Ahmedabad, Oct 12 (IANS) The Gujarat government has sealed four warehouses in Mehsana district after surprise inspections uncovered more than 1.58 lakh bags of suspected adulterated cottonseed cake, including a stock valued at Rs 25 crore at a warehouse in Linch, the state government said on Monday. The inspections were conducted on October 11 in the Kadi area on the instructions of Animal Husbandry Minister Jitu Vaghani, following a specific complaint about possible adulteration in animal feed. Samples of the suspected material have been sent to laboratories for testing, while officials are verifying the physical stock against warehouse records. According to the preliminary investigation, approximately 63.41 lakh kg of stock at the Linch warehouse, estimated to be worth Rs 25 crore, was found to be expired and suspected to be adulterated. The findings remain subject to further verification and laboratory analysis. The inspections covered four warehouses associated with the NCDEX group. At Bhavya Warehouse in Aldesan, officials found 14,125 bags, while Shubham Logistics Warehouse in the same village had 5,090 bags. Mahashakti Warehouse, also known as Amina Warehouse, in Nagrasan had 10,796 bags, and LTC Warehouse on the Linch-Ambasan Road had approximately 1,28,622 bags. The combined stock of more than 1,58,500 bags was sealed late on Sunday night for counting and verification. Joint teams from the Mehsana District Animal Husbandry Department, the Food and Drugs Control Administration, the Kadi Mamlatdar's office and veterinary services carried out the inspections under the supervision of the Mehsana Collector. Officials collected separate samples of the suspected cottonseed cake using scientific methods and sent them to laboratories for urgent analysis. On October 12, teams are also verifying the physical stock at the warehouses against the closing balances recorded in the stock registers. The action comes after Gujarat enacted a new law to ensure the quality and safety of animal feed. The legislation has received the Governor's assent, and its implementation is expected to begin shortly, according to the government. Vaghani had warned against adulteration in animal feed and cottonseed cake while addressing the annual general meeting of the Gujarat Cotton Seeds Crushers Association. He said the government would not tolerate practices that endangered animal health or harmed livestock farmers. The priority of the government is to ensure that livestock farmers in the state receive pure, safe and quality feed for their animals, Vaghani said. He added that those violating the prescribed standards of the Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) and the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), or selling adulterated and unfit feed, could face legal penalties, cancellation of licences and imprisonment under the new law. Further action is expected to depend on the findings of the laboratory tests and the verification of stock records.
