Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 25 (IANS) Actress Delnaaz Irani has opened up about the beauty standards prevalent in Bollywood, saying women in the industry are often expected to have a certain kind of skin and maintain a particular appearance. Delnaaz Irani on beauty standards in Bollywood: Women are expected to look a certain way Mumbai, Oct 25 (IANS) Actress Delnaaz Irani has opened up about the beauty standards prevalent in Bollywood, saying women in the industry are often expected to have a certain kind of skin and maintain a particular appearance. Speaking about the pressure to look good in the entertainment industry, the Kal Ho Na Ho told IANS, Generally speaking, yes, there is pressure. Women are expected to have a certain kind of skin and look a certain way. Even I feel that pressure a little bit sometimes, but then I tell myself, Maa ki, mast raho, khaao piyo, aish karo, zindagi jiyo. Delnaaz, who recently turned 54, acknowledged that physical, mental and emotional changes are a natural part of growing older. For me personally, I do not think I feel that much pressure. If I did, I would probably be trying very hard to lose weight and worrying about every little thing. I have laugh lines, and I know that these things happen as you grow older. There are so many physical, mental and emotional changes that women go through, but you have to learn to accept yourself, she said. The Chumbak actress also reflected on how expectations have changed between generations. She feels that people today face pressure in several areas of life, including their appearance, choices and the way they present themselves to the world. Times have changed. There is pressure everywhere today. Our generation was different. We were quite simple. We wore what our mothers gave us, and we ate what was served on our plates. There were not so many questions. Today, everything is discussed and questioned, she shared. The actress further asserted that growing older should not mean giving up on enjoying life. I feel that women should be comfortable with themselves rather than constantly comparing their appearance with unrealistic expectations. Of course, even I sometimes think about how I look, but I don't want to make it the centre of my life. I believe in enjoying life, staying happy and not putting unnecessary pressure on myself. Currently seen in the Netflix series Chumbak, Delnaaz Irani has built a diverse body of work across television and digital entertainment. She is known for her performances in shows such as Yes Boss, Ek Mahal Ho Sapno Ka, Son Pari, Kya Huaa Tera Vaada, Kehta Hai Dil Jee Le Zara, Jamai Raja, Har Mushkil Ka Hal Akbar Birbal, Partners, Ek Deewaana Tha, Kabhi Kabhie Ittefaq Sey, and Mannat: Harr Khushi Paane Ki.

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 25 (IANS) Actress Kunickaa Sadanand has reacted to the controversy surrounding Punjabi singer Diljit Dosanjhs Delhi concert, saying security concerns in the country cannot be ignored. Her remarks came amid reports that Delhi Police had granted permission for Diljits concert at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on October 30, a day after reportedly refusing clearance over security concerns. Speaking to IANS, Kunickaa said security issues had become a concern, pointing to incidents of violence involving celebrities. Well, there is a security problem in our country. As you can see, every day some or the other celebrity is shot, attempted murder, assassinated. So, due to security reasons, it got cancelled, she said. The actress added that she was unsure whether the decision to cancel the concert was taken by Diljit or the government. I don't know if Diljit did it or the government did it. If the government didn't do it, it means they don't know how to control and keep law and order in the country. Our citizens are safe here, she added. The concert, scheduled for October 30 at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium, faced uncertainty after Delhi Police initially withheld permission citing security concerns. However, the police later granted clearance following discussions with the organizers and a review of the safety arrangements. BookMyShow Live clarified that the concert had not been cancelled at any point. The clearance was temporarily kept on hold while officials assessed the proposed security arrangements. We, with Delhi Police, are committed to ensuring a good experience for attendees as well as local commuters, the organizers said in a statement. In a letter dated October 21, Deputy Commissioner of Police (South) Anant Mittal had declined permission for the concert, referring to specific threat-related intelligence and the polices security and law-and-order responsibilities during the festive period. However, the authorities did not disclose details of the alleged threats. The Delhi concert will mark the beginning of the India leg of Diljit Dosanjhs Aura World Tour.

Proud to announce my 556th film Out of Fashion! A long time ago, I read in a film book, Cinema has no language. I heard the words, but I dont think I truly understood them then. Today, as I find myself on the set of a Swedish-Belgian film, surrounded by people, places and a language different from my own, I feel their meaning. A look, a silence, a moment of tenderness!! These need no translation. They remind us that, beneath all our facial differences, we recognise the same hopes, fears and love, he wrote.

From Paan Singh Tomar to Railways Cricket: The Changing Fate of Karnail Singh Stadium
The decision to make Mumbais Brabourne Stadium the home ground of Railways for the 2026-27 Ranji Trophy season marks more than a change of venue. It also brings the curtain down, at least for now, on a long and fascinating chapter in the history of Karnail Singh Stadium in New Delhi. For generations, the stadium was synonymous with Railways cricket. It was where the team played its home matches, local supporters gathered, and several important moments in Indian sport unfolded. Today, however, its place in first-class cricket has diminished dramatically. Located in the Railway Colony area of Paharganj, the ground was built in 1954 and originally known as the Paharganj Railways Stadium. In 1978, it was renamed Karnail Singh Stadium in honour of Karnail Singh, one of the most influential railway administrators of his time. But this was never merely a cricket ground. Designed as a multi-sport facility, it hosted athletics, football, hockey, boxing, badminton and other sporting activities. For decades, it was an important sporting centre in the capital, particularly for railway employees and their families. One of the lesser-known sporting stories associated with the stadium involves Paan Singh Tomar, who later became famous for very different reasons. In 1964, he set a national record in the 3,000-metre steeplechase here, and the mark stood for several years. Many years later, actor Irrfan Khan, while preparing for his role as Tomar, visited the stadium to understand the place where the athlete had once competed. Cricket, nevertheless, became the stadium's most enduring association. Karnail Singh Stadium was the traditional home of Railways for decades. It was not a glamorous international venue, but it developed its own atmosphere. Railway colonies surrounded the ground, players and supporters were closely connected with the institution, and matches often had a distinctly local character. The presence of players such as Salim Durrani added to its appeal. Durrani, one of Indian cricket's great crowd-pullers, had a strong following in Delhi, and the Railways connection gave the ground an identity that larger venues could not easily replicate. The stadium also witnessed one of the biggest achievements in Railways cricket. In 2002, Railways played the Ranji Trophy final at Karnail Singh Stadium and won their maiden title on their home ground. Despite never becoming a regular men's international venue, Karnail Singh Stadium did host an important global cricket event. During the 1997 Women's World Cup, Sri Lanka Women played West Indies Women at the ground. The ground's relatively modest facilities and its multi-sport character were part of its charm and, eventually, part of its problem. The pitch became an increasingly visible concern. In 2012, the BCCI suspended the ground from hosting matches after concerns over the playing surface. The suspension forced Railways to look for alternative venues and marked an important break in the stadium's long association with first-class cricket. A decade later, another serious incident reinforced those concerns. During the 2022-23 Ranji Trophy match between Railways and Punjab, the pitch produced dangerously inconsistent bounce. The match was stopped after 24 wickets fell in just 103 overs, with fast bowlers accounting for 20 of those dismissals. Several players were hit, including Railways batsman Arindam Ghosh, who suffered a fractured finger. The pitch was subsequently described as dangerous and unfit. The match was restarted on another surface, while Railways' remaining home fixtures were moved elsewhere. The episode further underlined the ground's problems as a venue for first-class cricket. Railways were forced to play home matches at other venues, including grounds in Gujarat, and the team gradually lost the home-ground advantage that had been such a defining part of its identity. Now, the bigger question is not whether Karnail Singh Stadium can host another Ranji match, but whether it still has a sustainable future as a first-class cricket venue. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories In the 2026-27 season, Railways will play their home Ranji Trophy matches at Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai, including one against the 'visitors' Mumbai. The move to Brabourne is more than a logistical decision. It represents the end of an era for a ground that was once, quite simply, the home of Railways cricket.
Tuborg maker Carlsberg Indias FY26 revenue slips 2.2 pc ahead of IPO
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 25 (IANS) IPO-bound brewer Carlsberg India has reported a 2.2 per cent decline in its revenue from operations to Rs 8,708.8 crore in FY26. According to financial data accessed through business intelligence platform Tofler, the company's total income, including other income, stood at Rs 8,814.96 crore for the financial year ended March 2026, down 2.25 per cent from Rs 9,018.18 crore in the previous financial year. However, its profit rose 22 per cent year-on-year to Rs 534.51 crore, as per the financial data. Carlsberg India, which markets popular beer brands such as Tuborg, Carlsberg Elephant and Kronenbourg 1664 Blanc in the country, had posted revenue from operations of Rs 8,906.5 crore and a profit of Rs 437.94 crore in FY25. The financial performance comes as the company advances its stock market debut plans. In July 2026, Carlsberg India confidentially filed draft papers with the Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) for an initial public offering and subsequently received regulatory approval on October 1. The proposed share sale is reportedly expected to raise as much as $700 million. During FY26, the brewer's royalty payments to its parent entity increased 13.23 per cent to Rs 90.01 crore. At the same time, excise duty expenses, one of the company's largest cost components, fell nearly 12 per cent to Rs 4,816.83 crore from Rs 5,468.24 crore a year earlier. Marketing and publicity expenditure declined marginally by 2.24 per cent to Rs 69.22 crore. However, spending on sales promotion surged 42.62 per cent to Rs 848.71 crore, compared with Rs 595.07 crore in FY25. Helped by lower excise duty costs and tighter expense management, Carlsberg India's total expenses fell 4 per cent to Rs 8,090.81 crore in FY26 from Rs 8,426.23 crore in the preceding financial year. Carlsberg India is wholly owned by South Asian Breweries Pte Ltd, Singapore, which in turn operates under Carlsberg South Asia Pte Ltd, the holding company for the Danish brewer's South Asian business.

'We Met In All-star Game, I Knew He Had Something...': MLB Legend Lauds SKY During MLBx Mumbai Event
MLB India Brand Ambassador: American professional baseball analyst and former outfielder Nick Swisher showered praise on ex-India T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav after Major League Baseball hosted its inaugural MLBx Mumbai-3-on-3 baseball event at Mumbai Football Arena, Andheri Sports Complex. The MLB legend recalled his meeting with the Indian batting star at the 2026 MLB All-Star Week in Philadelphia, where Suryakumar kicked off his role as MLB India Brand Ambassador, and said at the moment he knew Suryakumar had something special. Mumbai, the hospitality, the heart of the Indian people, has been so unbelievable for us. But once again, we realise that this can't happen if we don't have our cricket stars. So the men and the women from the cricket world that came over to help us with this event, on top of our amazing softball players what an amazing show. Mumbai, you showed up for us; we can't thank you enough. Well, by the way, when we met during the all-star game, I knew he had something. That's why I wanted him on my team, Swisher told reporters in Mumbai. Cricket and baseball squared off in Mumbai as former MLB superstars Nick Swisher and Adrian Gonzalez took on India's T20 World Cup-winning captain Suryakumar in a battle of power and defence supremacy as Major League Baseball hosted its inaugural MLBx Mumbai-3-on-3 baseball event in India. MLBx is Major League Baseballs innovative, fast-paced 3-on-3 baseball competition that brings together baseball and softball stars in an event that includes interactive fan experiences and entertainment. In 2022, then known as MLB Home Run Derby X, events were held in London, Mexico City and Seoul. MLBx Mumbai featured Indian cricket stars Shardul Thakur, Jitesh Sharma, Kashvee Gautam, Radha Yadav and Deepak Chahar, joining Suryakumar, who is an MLB ambassador and led Indias national team to the 2026 T20 World Cup title as its captain. It also featured former MLB stars Jake Arrieta, Jonny Gomes, Adrian Gonzalez and Nick Swisher, as well as Athletes Unlimited Softball League standouts Rachel Garcia and Jordan Woolery. The players were split into four teams whose namesakes are among the most historic franchises in MLB history: the Cubs, Dodgers, Red Sox and Yankees. The teams played in a knockout-style competition, and the event featured a three-inning format that combines power hitting, athletic defensive plays and fast-paced gameplay. Each player would have one two-minute at-bat during a three-inning game, while the opposing team will set up their three players in the outfield. Teams earn a point for each home run and a point for each catch. Bonus points can be earned by hitting balls through a centre-field target, placed above the outfield fence or calling for a hot streak of five swings, where offensive and defensive points count double. At the end of a game, the team with the most points wins. Sharing his experience about the sport and its techniques, India all-rounder Shardul Thakur said, It is tough because it's not easy to keep hitting. The techniques are a little bit different. We had to learn about it, but the baseball players were really kind to teach us, discuss with us, and let us know about their sport. So, it was a completely new experience. A lot of people have come to watch this. When we were on stage trying to hit home runs and all, even the young boys who came to catch the balls were very excited about the sport. Fast bowler Deepak Chahar added, I played this game for the first time, and I really liked it as the ball goes farther. I would say it's easier for Indian people because it's not too expensiveyou just need a ball and a bat. It's just like gully cricket; when we play in a gully, we only get runs straight... My experience was really good. I spoke to a lot of players and throwers. Reflecting on playing against his India teammate Suryakumar, he said, It was really exciting. He is a really good friend, and I have played a lot of cricket with him in the Indian team and in the Mumbai Indians. Playing against each other here was good. Indian spinner Radha Yadav opined that the Indian audience will definitely like the sport, as baseball is all about hitting powerful strokes, and Indian fans love watching sixes. Reflecting on playing against his India teammate Suryakumar, he said, It was really exciting. He is a really good friend, and I have played a lot of cricket with him in the Indian team and in the Mumbai Indians. Playing against each other here was good.

Veteran singer Amit Kumar then made an appearance and entertained the audience with two songs from Imtihaan (1994) 'Dheere Dheere Chori Chori' and 'Is Tarah Aashiqui Ka'. He followed these with the evergreen 'Bade Achhe Lagte Hain' from Balika Badhu (1976) and 'Main Hoon Jhoom Jhoom Jhumroo' from Jhumroo (1961).

At this point, he referred to Roop Kumar Rathod's earlier rendition of 'Sandese Aate Hain' and reminded the audience that he was the composer of the iconic track. He told the crowd, Don't forget that I composed that song. I was asked by someone, 'Kya yeh gaana aapne banaya hai?'. I replied, 'Maine banaya hai'. That person suggested, 'Thoda gaa do'! He continued, Yeh gaana maine apne Hindustan ke liye banaya hai. Yeh gaana maine apne Indian Armed Forces ke liye banaya hai, who protect us day and night. It's the song that came out of my heart.

In between songs, Palash expressed his disappointment over how the Bollywood music industry never gave him a chance. However, he also claimed that he had no regrets about retaining ownership of his music. Speaking about his immensely popular song 'Maaeri', he said, I am glad I never gave away the rights to my song 'Maaeri'. Koi apni maa ko bhi nahi bechta! Palash saved this track for the end of his performance. In between, Vaishali Samant joined him on stage and, in a pleasant surprise, Palash sang the male portions of the Marathi chartbuster 'Kombdi Palali' from Jatra (2005). The song was famously recreated as 'Chikni Chameli' in Agneepath (2012). Hariharan and his son Akshay Hariharan then took the stage and performed songs like the title track of Roja (1992), 'Nahin Saamne' from Taal (1999), 'Baahon Ke Darmiyan' from Khamoshi (1996) and 'Chappa Chappa' from Maachis (1996).

She recited a poem, following which Himesh sang 'Main Jahaan Rahoon' from Namastey London. As he performed the romantic number, Himesh lovingly embraced Sonia and kissed her on the forehead.

Himesh continued his musical extravaganza with 'Yahi Hota Pyaar' from Namastey London, 'Aashiqui Mein Teri' from 36 China Town (2006), 'Afsaana Banaaya Aapne' from the upcoming Gunmaaster G9, the title track of Aashiq Banaya Aapne (2005), 'Kheech Meri Photo' from Sanam Teri Kasam (2016), 'Hookah Bar' from Khiladi 786 (2012), 'Soniye' from Aksar (2006), and 'Ek Haseena Thi' and 'Tandoori Nights' from Karzzzz (2008). In between, he performed a foot-tapping medley comprising 'Jhalak Dikhla Ja' from Aksar, the title tracks of Sanam Teri Kasam and Humko Deewana Kar Gaye (2006), and 'Kitne Armaan' and 'Aye Meri Zohrajabeen' from Phir Hera Pheri (2006). Ayushmann Khurrana joins Himesh Reshammiya on stage; calls him Lord Himesh In one of the biggest surprises of the evening, Ayushmann Khurrana suddenly appeared on stage, much to the delight of the crowd. The actor joined Himesh Reshammiya to promote their upcoming film, Yeh Prem Mol Liya. EMBED # 2 https://x.com/fenil_seta/status/2114218163772789145 Ayushmann told the cheering audience, I am just overwhelmed seeing you guys. It is so beautiful. Maine ek baar Himesh sir ka concert dekha tha Indore mein. Or maybe it was Raipur. This is when my debut film Vicky Donor (2012) had just been released. This is the second time I am at a Himesh Reshammiya concert. And you guys are singing along. It's absolutely crazy and madness here. He then enthusiastically declared, Lord Himesh is with us! Ayushmann also spoke highly of the music of their upcoming film, saying, Yeh Prem Mol Liya is a Himesh Reshammiya musical. The tracks of the film are supremely hummable. The crowd, meanwhile, had another demand. Fans began insisting that Ayushmann sing his immensely popular song 'Pani Da Rang' from Vicky Donor. Himesh decided to have some fun and joked, Maine aaj tak 'Pani Da' nahin gaaya. Main bhi gaa lu? As expected, the crowd shouted, Yes, yes! However, Himesh ultimately let Ayushmann do the honours. Himesh, meanwhile, performed on the title song of Yeh Prem Mol Liya. Naak se gau ya khatarnaak se?: Himesh Reshammiya leaves fans in splits Himesh also entertained the audience with his trademark humour. During one of the performances, he proudly declared, Lip-sync ya Auto-Tune nahin hai mere performance mein! He then asked the crowd a hilarious question: Naak se gau ya khatarnaak se? The audience was left amused and confused, unsure which option to choose. Himesh, however, went ahead and sang in his much-loved nasal voice, much to the delight of his fans. #HimeshReshammiya sings 'Aye Meri Zohrajabeen' from #PhirHeraPheri at Bollywood Music Project 2026; fans can't control their excitement @bmp_live https://t.co/XX2Dmsv61T Fenil Seta (@fenil_seta) October 25, 2026 At another point, he revealed that he had plenty of songs in his repertoire but was unable to perform all of them due to time constraints. He added, Uske liye Capmania Tour mein aana padega! Himesh eventually returned to 'Jhalak Dikhla Ja', performing a longer version of the iconic track and sending the crowd into a frenzy. Himesh Reshammiya takes cheeky digs at organizers Towards the end of his performance, Himesh shot a selfie video with the massive crowd in the background for his social media handle. He then made a remark that caught everyone's attention. Himesh said, Main aap logon ke liye 24 ghante perform karna chahta hoon! Lekin hamare pyaare Bollywood Music Project waalon ne mujhe sirf thoda sa waqt diya hain! The remark prompted loud boos from the audience. Himesh continued, Kya karoon? If you guys want, main subah tak hilunga nahin! Even as his set was drawing to a close, Himesh seemed reluctant to leave the stage and wanted to entertain the audience with more songs. He then made another cheeky remark, saying, I will perform until they don't switch off my mic. Interestingly, that is precisely what happened. With the event having crossed its scheduled closing time of 10:00 pm, the organisers eventually switched off Himesh's microphone, bringing his performance to an end. Yet, Himesh continued speaking even after his microphone was switched off, hoping his voice would reach the fans. Sadly, his efforts were in vain. #HimeshReshammiya keeps talking to fans at Bollywood Music Project 2026 even as his mic was cut off by the organizers https://t.co/9Iy7KQHoFv Fenil Seta (@fenil_seta) October 25, 2026 His repeated remarks about being allotted limited time, particularly the reference to his microphone being switched off, were especially striking in light of what had happened with Shilpa Rao earlier in the evening. Whether or not the comments were intended as a dig at the organisers over that incident, they certainly added an unexpected layer of humour and drama to the proceedings. Nevertheless, Himesh Reshammiya ensured that the Bollywood Music Project ended on a high. With his infectious energy, memorable songs, hilarious one-liners and generous doses of nostalgia, the singer gave attendees a performance to remember and, more importantly, their money's worth.
