Uddhav, Raj Thackeray, lead morcha in Mumbai against CEC Gyanesh Kumar
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 4 (IANS) Veteran Bollywood actress Neetu Kapoor, who was last seen in Daadi Ki Shaadi, sarcastically spoke about the paparazzis obsession with capturing the back of the actress. On Sunday, the actress was spotted in the city. As she stepped out of an establishment, and walked towards her car, she was asked for a picture of her back by the paparazzi stationed at the venue. She turned around, and told the paparazzi, Apko ya bada accha lagta hai na, back? The paparazzi replied in negative as the actress sat in her car, and closed the door. Neetu Kapoor is not the first person from the industry to speak about the paparazzis unhealthy obsession of clicking the pictures of the actresses back. Earlier, actress Neha Dhupia called out paparazzi for taking inappropriate back shots of actresses, saying the practice is disrespectful and needs to stop. At a Mumbai awards event, she confronted photographers, and said, Yeh badtameezi se backshot kaun leta hai tum logon mein se? Band karo. (Who is taking these disrespectful back shots? Stop it). She added that she was not asking only for herself, but for all women, saying celebrities had repeatedly asked photographers to stop and were tired of saying it again and again. Bollywood superstar Salman Khan also strongly supported Neha Dhupias stand. On Bigg Boss 20, he specifically mentioned Neha while criticizing paparazzi for taking intrusive photos of actresses from behind. He said Neha had fought against it and urged women who dislike such photos to stand up for themselves. His blunt message was essentially, if a paparazzo does it despite being told to stop, turn around and slap him. He called the practice disgusting and questioned the mentality of photographers who do it.

Will bury dictatorship manufactured under Make in India: Uddhav Thackeray at Mumbai rally
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 4 (IANS) Shiv Sena(UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray on Sunday launched direct attacks on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, and the functioning of the Election Commission of India (ECI) during a rally in Mumbai. Referring to PM Modi's 'Make in India' initiative, Thackeray said, When he first became the Prime Minister, he announced Make in India. We supported that vision. But if you are manufacturing a dictator under Make in India, we stand here today to bury that dictatorship. Everything else under Make in India is fine, but if you attempt to become a dictator, consider your authoritarianism buried. Addressing 'Garjana Morcha' in Mumbai, organised by the Shiv Sena(UBT) with the Maharashtra Navnirman Sena chief Raj Thackeray, Uddhav Thackeray launched a scathing attack on the Central government and the ECI over allegations of systemic electoral fraud and the erosion of democratic institutions. He framed the demonstration as a ationwide crusade to safeguard Indias constitutional fabric and civil liberties, warning that public resentment could soon spill over into the streets if institutional overreach continues. Raising concerns over electoral roll manipulations, Uddhav Thackeray alleged that 13 crore voters have been erased from electoral lists across the country. That figure equals the entire population of Maharashtra. Is this arbitrary deletion acceptable to you? he asked the protesting crowd. He accused the authorities of 'stealthily purging vast voter bases. He pointed out that nearly 13 crore voters nationwide, including two crore in Maharashtra alone, have been unaccounted for or disenfranchised. He further noted that 70 lakh voters in Tamil Nadu and 30 lakh voters in West Bengal were removed. Pointing to West Bengal, Uddhav Thackeray noted that several invalidated voter applications were recently deemed valid right before the upcoming byelections. Criticising the legal delays, he questioned why urgent petitions filed in the Supreme Court face scheduled hearings just a day before polling. If the hearing takes place on the 5th and polling is on the 6th, how can reinstated voters exercise their rights? The ruling regime has captured every independent institution, he alleged. Questioning the credibility and appointment process of CEC Gyanesh Kumar, Uddhav Thackeray criticised the legislative removal of the Chief Justice of India (CJI) from the selection panel. He highlighted that the three-member panel now consists of the Prime Minister, a Cabinet Minister -- Union Home Minister Amit Shah -- and the Leader of the Opposition. With Home Minister Amit Shah on the committee, it creates an automatic 2-1 majority for the ruling government. Despite formal dissent from the Leader of Opposition, Rahul Gandhi, Gyanesh Kumar was appointed without waiting for scheduled court hearings. His appointment is fundamentally biased, he alleged. Remarking on the political narrative, Uddhav Thackeray asserted that while the BJP once built a narrative against alleged Congress corruption, current public sentiment across the nation has shifted to an India Against Vote-Chor (India Against Vote Thieves) movement. Denouncing the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Uddhav Thackeray claimed the party is incapable of governance. Governance and the BJP are polar opposites. What you are running is not an administration -- it is sheer political retribution, he charged, estimating that verifying the remaining disputed voter applications at the current pace would take nearly 146 months. Questioning the law and order state under the ruling administration in Maharashtra, Uddhav Thackeray cited the recent murder of Shiv Sena office-bearer Pradeep Purnekar in Thane. Where are your police forces and Home Minister now? Is this your version of Hindutva? he asked. He added that the terms BJP and administration have become contradictory, characterising the current administration as driven by political vengeance. Invoking Shiv Sena founder Balasaheb Thackeray, he noted that Balasaheb consistently rejected such a miserable and vengeful version of democracy. Where is your Hindutva government when crimes against women and citizens are rising across the nation? he asked. Issuing a direct warning to the ruling establishment, Uddhav Thackeray said: You may have captured institutions and administrations, but the streets belong to the people. A day will come when you will find it difficult to even walk these public streets. The protest march, stretching from Metro Cinema to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) headquarters at CSMT, saw thousands of supporters marching with only the Indian Tricolour, strictly eschewing party flags. The rally united a broad coalition of opposition parties, with participation from the Nationalist Congress Party (Sharadchandra Pawar), Congress, Peasants and Workers Party of India (PWP), Left parties, along with MNS and Shiv Sena(UBT) cadres. The high-profile joint rally signals a major political escalation in Maharashtra, bringing opposing political factions together to challenge the Election Commission.

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 4 (IANS) Actress Khushbu Sundar has extended her support to Janhvi Kapoor after her morphed video from 'Devara' song 'Chuttamalle' raised serious concerns about the misuse of AI. What has been done through AI is not a joke, not entertainment and not something we should ever normalise. It is cruel, abusive and deeply shameful. It is tearing off her dignity, she wrote on X (Previously called Twitter) handle. Expressing her displeasure in strong words, she added, I am outraged by the creation and circulation of morphed videos targeting a woman. No woman should have to fear that technology can be weaponised to invade her dignity, reputation and sense of safety. Today, it is her. Tomorrow, it could be me, you, our daughter, our sister, our mother, or any woman we love. We cannot remain silent simply because we are not the victim today. When one womans dignity is attacked, every woman has a reason to stand up and speak out. Khushbu Sundar feels that those who create such content, knowingly share it, and promote it must be held accountable and face consequences in order to set an example. A womans body is not content. Her dignity is not entertainment. Her humiliation is not a joke. And AI must never become a weapon against women. As women, we must stand together and say: ENOUGH, she went on to write. Supporting Janhvi, she concluded the post saying, I stand with you #JanhviKapoor Stay strong bachcha. On Saturday, Jr NTR raised his voice against using AI to create fake videos. He even warned of legal action against those who indulged in such activities. He also suggested the same repercussions for those who help circulate it. Additionally, Vijay Deverakonda and Chiranjeevi also used social media to condemn such misuse of technology.

They provide the soil, the script, the platform, and 60 percent is me. You know, I choose which seeds to plant and, most importantly, which ones to pull out. The actress shared that the real shift started to happen when she learned the art of saying no, The real shift happened when I started saying no to 90 percent of the shows that were being offered to me. Mona gained recognition for her role in the soap opera Jassi Jaissi Koi Nahin, which first premiered in 2003.

Gul Panag gives herself a 'pat on the back' as he renews her pilot license
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 4 (IANS) Along with being a celebrated actress, Gul Panag is also a licensed private pilot. The 'Dor' actress got a little nostalgic as she recently renewed her licence after 10 years. Looking back at the time when she first got her licence, Gul Panag wrote on her IG, Life is eventually all about perspective. Ten years ago, when I got my flying licence, I was over the moon. It had been on my bucket list for a very, very long time. And there had been no shortage of people telling me I couldnt do it. Or wouldnt be able to (sic). The 'The Family Man' actress also reflected on all the hurdles she had to overcome to realize her dream of becoming a pilot. Starting flying training is one thing. Completing the prescribed flying hours while pursuing a career, clearing all the exams, navigating the paperwork, keeping your medical current and seeing the entire process through is quite another. Individually, theyre all relatively simple things. Together, they add up to a great deal, especially when youre not doing it to pursue flying as a profession. But I managed. And when that licence was finally issued, I was ecstatic. A huge bucket-list item ticked off, she penned. Gul Panag said that ten years after officially becoming a pilot, she realised that getting the licence was one thing; keeping it is quite another. She added that she knows so many people who started flying but never finished their training, or others who completed their flying hours but do not clear the exams. And then there are those who earned their licences but eventually let them lapse. Life, work, medical requirements, or simply not flying enough. It happens so easily, particularly when flying isnt your profession, she added. I now appreciate not just what it took to get here, but what it has taken to keep going. And for once, Im allowing myself a small pat on the back. Walking in this time, not as a student hoping to earn her wings, but as a licensed pilot returning for a renewal, felt rather different. And yet, some things havent changed, Gul Panag concluded.

India, Canada to begin 5th round of CEPA talks on Oct 5, eye year-end deal
The chief negotiators of India and Canada will begin the fifth round of negotiations for the proposed Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) in Ottawa from October 5, with an aim to conclude the talks by the end of this calendar year, an official said. The five-day talks may end on October 9. The fourth round of negotiations concluded here on September 18. The talks are moving at a faster pace as both countries are targeting to conclude the negotiations by the end of this year. The negotiations are important as Prime Minister Narendra Modi is expected to visit Canada around December this year, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has said last month. To give a further impetus to the talks, Canada's Trade Minister Maninder Sidhu will visit New Delhi later this month with a 300 strong business delegation. Sidhu and Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal met in Mumbai last month to review the progress of negotiations. CEPA is a kind of free trade agreement in which two countries
US firm offers to supply Ukrainian drones to Pakistan triggering regional security concerns
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 4 (IANS) Powerus, an American defence company with close ties to the family of US President Donald Trump, shot into the limelight last week when it signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with the Pakistani Army and offered Islamabad access to Ukrainian drone technology which has serious implications for regional security. Within six months of being set up, in October last year, Powerus acquired three small firms and started manufacturing unmanned aerial and maritime systems. At the same time, Powerus signed a contract with G1 Exploration to commercialise autonomous defence systems developed in Ukraine. G1 Exploration owns the intellectual properties of seven fully developed drone models from Ukrainian manufacturers, as well as a number of systems at various stages of development. The collaboration between the two companies has also led to the launch of the Guardian line of drone interceptors, according to an article in India Narrative. The company has recently secured a number of contracts beating defence giants such as Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics and Boeing, which have a large share of the unmanned systems market. Powerus secured a contract with the U.S. Air Force to supply 3,000 interceptor drones, valued at $90 million, as well as a contract with the U.S. Department of Defense to supply 1,500 FPV drones, control kits, and spare parts, valued at $2.5 million. Besides, it has bagged a key $22.3 million deal to develop a system to protect critical oil and gas infrastructure in the Middle East on behalf of the United States. At the same time, Powerus began re-exporting Ukrainian drone technology to the Indian subcontinent. It first struck a deal with Paras Defense and Space Technologies in Mumbai, which provided for the production and sale of Guardian-1 technology in India. However, on September 16, the company signed the MoU with the Pakistan Army, represented by Field Marshal Asim Munir. The drone deal sparked controversy over conflicts of interest and raised serious concerns regarding regional security, especially given Islamabads active efforts to build up its drone capabilities by exporting Ukrainian tactics and technologies after its defeat in Operation Sindoor, the article points out. Although exact details have not been disclosed, Poweruss co-founder Brett Velicovich stated that the MoU calls for an initial order of unmanned aerial vehicles. He added that the companys ultimate goal is to establish a joint technology partnership and set up manufacturing operations in Pakistan. Powerus CEO Andrew Fox said that Pakistans private defence sector is still in the early stages of development, but is of interest to American companies. These statements raise particular concerns about the resumption of US-Pakistan defence cooperation. Although Washington has ceased supplying Islamabad with weapons, only providing modernisation packages for previously delivered F-16 fighter jets, the Powerus deal is a cause for concern, the article added.

Sharad Pawar backs Thackeray brothers' protest, says SIR issue not limited to Mumbai
Nationalist Congress Party (SP) chief Sharad Pawar on Sunday backed the joint protest march being led by Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray and Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray in Mumbai against Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar, saying the demand was not limited to the city and that similar concerns were being raised across Maharashtra. Addressing a press conference, Pawar said political parties should come together to find a solution to alleged irregularities in the electoral process and take action against those found responsible. This demand is not limited to Mumbai. It is also being raised in Pune and Nagpur, and in several other parts of the state. The state government is going through the SIR process. When all concerned political parties come together to find a solution to this issue and take a decision regarding those who have committed irregularities, we will stand with them and extend our support, Pawar said.

Thackeray brothers lead Garjana Morcha in Mumbai, challenge ECI over SIR row
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 4 (IANS) In a display of political unity, Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray and Shiv Sena(UBT) leader Uddhav Thackeray on Sunday spearheaded a high-decibel Garjana Morcha in Mumbai. Marching from Metro Cinema to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) headquarters, the joint rally delivered a broadside against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar and the Election Commission of India (ECI) over alleged voter roll manipulation. The protest gained substantial momentum as key constituents of the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA), including the Nationalist Congress Party(Sharadchandra Pawar) and the Congress party, joined forces on the streets. The Communist Parties, Peasants and Workers Party also participated in the march. Ditching party flags in favour of the Tricolour, thousands of demonstrators marched demanding strict accountability, the scrapping of the controversial Special Intensive Revision (SIR) process, and the immediate resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar. Questioning the legitimacy of the recent election outcomes, Raj Thackeray pointed to the eerie silence across the state after the Assembly election results. He argued that a genuine democratic mandate is marked by spontaneous public celebration, whereas the current post-election atmosphere across Maharashtra reflected widespread disillusionment and shock. Highlighting a sharp statistical anomaly, Thackeray questioned how Maharashtra's voter base swelled by an astonishing 40 to 60 lakh voters within a brief six-month window following the Lok Sabha elections. He termed the surge a deliberate attempt to compromise electoral integrity. Reminding opposition leaders of his warnings dating back to 2017-2018, Raj Thackeray noted that he had previously met senior leaders, including Sonia Gandhi, Mamata Banerjee, and Sharad Pawar, regarding EVM vulnerabilities and voter list discrepancies. He reiterated that a united boycott of elections remains the only definitive way to force transparency. Asserting that the SIR mechanism was being weaponised to disenfranchise legitimate citizens while injecting bogus entries into rolls, Raj Thackeray demanded an immediate halt to SIR and a return to paper ballots for future elections. SIR in the country is illegal. I have only two demands. First, the SIR conducted in Maharashtra must be scrapped. Second, all future elections must be conducted on ballot papers. This will ensure complete transparency, doodh ka doodh, paani ka paani, said Raj Thackeray. He further added, I request all political parties to go to Delhi and raise their voices. Tomorrow, whichever party comes to power... it doesn't matter. But power must be attained through legitimate and fair means, he remarked. In his speech, Uddhav Thackeray also led a blistering attack on the BJP-led government at the Centre for gaining control over various institutions and engineering splits in political parties. He strongly criticised CEC Gyanesh Kumar for the centralisation of power in the poll panel, saying that he needs to be removed. He questioned the immunity which CEC enjoys during his tenure and also after retirement. The joint march marks a significant recalibration in Maharashtras political landscape. By rallying together alongside MVA allies, the Thackeray cousins have successfully elevated electoral integrity to a central public debate.

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 4 (IANS) Filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma shared his views on how AI is being misused to spread fake and objectionable content after a morphed video of the song 'Chuttamalle' from 'Devara' circulated on social media recently. The 'Satya' maker said that celebrities talking about fake AI content on social media only helps it reach more people, bringing unnecessary attention to the victim's identity. Ram Gopal Varma tweeted, The only thing all the celebrities succeeded in , is to publicise and thereby make crores and crores of people see the objectionable link ..The smart thing would have been to concentrate on catching the perpetrator and publicise that ..Instead what they did is to tweet and bring enormous attention to the victims identity and the offensive content which is also a crime (sic). On Saturday, Jr NTR condemned the fake video of the 'Chuttamalle' song. He warned of legal action against the accused, along with those who help circulate such content. Calling such people Disgusting, Sick and Shameless, the 'RRR' actor posted on the micro-blogging site, In a land that worships women as mothers and goddesses, where Matrudevo Bhava is not just a phrase but a part of our culture, some people have fallen so low that they are using AI to disrespect a woman in the most degrading way possible. Using AI to create something this vile is shameful beyond words. To the scumbags behind this morphed Chuttamalle video, I will not spare any of you. I will take every possible legal action against those who created it and those who are spreading it. Jr NTR further urged the netizens not to watch, share, or even engage with such content. He also requested the authorities to come up with strict regulations against such blatant misuse of technology. Please do not watch, share or engage with such content. Today it is someone else. Tomorrow, it could be your mother, sister, wife or daughter. This is a serious issue, and I urge all the state governments and the Government of India to act strongly and bring in strict regulations against the misuse of AI, he concluded.
Uddhav, Raj Thackeray to lead Mumbai protest against CEC Gyanesh Kumar
Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray and Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) chief Raj Thackeray will lead a joint protest march in Mumbai on Sunday against Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Gyanesh Kumar, with the parties alleging irregularities in the electoral process and demanding his resignation. Speaking ahead of the protest, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut said the protest was a collective response to what he alleged were attempts to undermine democratic institutions, electoral processes and the constitutional rights of citizens. This protest is against the Hitler-rule prevailing in the country, hijacking elections, keeping the Election Commission and the Supreme Court in one's pocket, running a dictatorship, stealing votes, stealing elections, and poaching MPs and MLAs. This is a revolt against all that, much like the one in 1857, he told reporters. Raj Thackeray and Uddhav Thackeray have announced this protest march, with the entire Maha Vikas Aghadi backing it. The march...
'I know I can take down the bowlers left, right, and centre,' says Shreyas on his approach
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 4 (IANS) India T20I captain Shreyas Iyer has made it clear that he does not want to be tied down by a predetermined batting template, saying his approach will be dictated by the match situation as the team begins its preparations for the next ICC Mens T20 World Cup. Speaking ahead of Indias five-match T20I series against the West Indies, Iyer said he wants to use his natural attacking instincts while also ensuring that his innings gives the middle and lower order a platform to build on. Iyers emphasis on situation-based batting is particularly relevant in T20 cricket, where the value of an innings can change rapidly depending on the phase of the game. For the India captain, the first few overs offer an opportunity to put pressure back on the opposition, while a longer stay at the crease brings with it the responsibility of controlling the innings. I love to play the situation. If Im going into bat in the powerplay, I want to capitalise on the field restrictions which you have in the powerplay. So, I am someone who likes to go against the bowlers when the chips are down, because thats when the offensive game comes in. Thats my mindset that has been right from the start, since the time I started playing for Mumbai in the Ranji Trophy. And once I get in, I see to it that I create a platform for the batters coming after me. And if I keep continuing, then I know I can take down the bowlers left, right, and centre, Iyer told JioStar. The Mumbai batters philosophy, therefore, is not simply about attacking from the outset. He wants to assess what the opposition is attempting to do and respond accordingly. Reading the field and understanding the bowlers plan form an important part of that process. I check around the field and see what kind of tactics they are plotting against me. Sometimes bowlers, they love to bluff and they like to get on top of you. They get aggressive at the start, especially in the one-day format. They want wickets. And even if I would be fielding as a captain or a vice-captain, I would be wanting wickets, so I would be right into the batsman. So thats when I love to capitalise on that, to shift the momentum towards me and see to it that I am playing the ball, I am playing the field, I am manipulating everything around me, he added.
Ramesh Taurani and Kumar Taurani spoke to Komal Nahta about their journey and experience of working on the music of some important films in their career. At the beginning, Ramesh Taurani said, The first film whose music rights we acquired was Gunahon Ka Devta (1990). We paid Rs. 2.25 lakhs for it. We both didnt sleep for 2 nights as we had paid Rs. 25,000 to the makers. Then we wondered, Inko Rs. 2 lakhs chukayenge kaise? (laughs)! We also bought the music rights of Elaan-E-Jung (1989), which, again was an action film. We wanted to prove ourselves. So, we installed 6 hoardings for this film in Mumbai, in places like Bandra, Juhu, etc. Imagine a music company putting up posters, that too of an action film. But it worked as it sparked a discussion among filmmakers. They felt ki Yeh toh acchi music company hai! Ramesh continued, Then, we bagged the rights of Patthar Ke Phool (1991). Bhagyashree took the full credit for Maine Pyar Kiya (1989). 3 months after its release, Salman Khan didnt have any film in its pipeline. Thats when Salim saab asked G P Sippy saab to announce that he was producing Salmans next film. He told Sippy saab, Bhale aap picture mat banao lekin aapke announcement se ek boost milega. Ramesh Taurani revealed, It was in Film Information magazine where I read that G P Sippy has signed Salman Khan. The news got published on Saturday and on Monday, I was in G P Sippy saabs office. I expressed the desire to acquire the music rights. I asked him, Have you signed any music director?. He replied, No. I then asked if he had got a lyricist on board. He told me, We havent done that either. I requested him to get the Maine Pyar Kiya team again music director Raamlaxman, lyricist Dev Kohli, and singers S P Balasubrahmanyam and Lata Mangeshkar! I told him, Yeh combination hi aap lena. Aap bataiye aapka price kya hai?. Ramesh added, G P Sippy saab confessed that he hadnt given much thought to the music and asked me to meet him after 2 days. Meanwhile, he was in touch with Viveck Vaswani, who wished to make an Rs. 80 lakh project called Patthar Ke Phool. Viveck wanted to sign Salman Khan and Ravi Tandons daughter, Raveena Tandon. Sippy saab initially declined, saying that it was a small project while they were used to making big-budget films. But after he met me, he felt, Music ka aadmi aa gaya kheeli ek announcement pe. Toh iss project ko active karte hain (smiles). Ramesh Taurani stated, Hence, he called Viveck Vaswani and the next day, he met Raamlaxman and discussed his fees. He asked for Rs. 12 lakhs. A day later, G P Sippy saab met me and told me, Woh bahut mehenga hai. Rs. 12 lakh maanga. Those days, Anand-Milinds music rights used to be sold for Rs. 2-3 lakhs, while Laxmikant-Pyarelals music rights were sold in the range of Rs. 3-5 lakhs. I was in a spot as I was the one who had suggested Raamlaxmans name! Finally, we negotiated and bought the rights for Rs. 10 lakhs. Ramesh then said, We gave G P Sippy saab the first cheque amounting to Rs. 5 lakhs. From that amount, payments were made to Salman, Raveena and Salim saab, who was also the films writer. Thats how the film went on floors!

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 4 (IANS) Bollywood actor Salman Khan compared his television journey with legend Amitabh Bachchan as he recalled how the show 'Dus Ka Dum' was a turning point in his career. Speaking during the 'Weekend Ka Vaar' episode of 'Bigg Boss 20', he revealed that he was going through a challenging phase in his life when he was offered 'Dus Ka Dum' and was initially reluctant to do the show. However, his father and acclaimed writer Salim Khan convinced him to take up the show. Drawing parallels between his trajectory and that of Amitabh Bachchan, Salman pointed out how 'Kaun Banega Crorepati' helped the audience see a new side of Big B, giving his career a fresh boost when he needed it the most. He said during the 'Weekend Ka Vaar', The same thing happened with Mr Bachchan. The day he did KBC, he became Kaun Banega Crorepati uncle. So, they forgot all my film work and only remembered only Dus Ka Dum. I did two seasons there and then I have been hosting Bigg Boss since 17 seasons. My image in the media was cleared in one episode. There were ups and downs after that as well, but you have to show who you truly are, Salman concluded. Salman also shared how 'Dus Ka Dum' almost did not happen for him. He shared, I wasnt going to do it because there was so much being talked about against me. Every newspaper and TV channel was thrashing me left, right and center. I spoke to my father about it and asked for advice. Revealing how the show changed the way people saw him, he added, Everyone forgot 'Maine Pyaar Kiya', 'Hum Aapke Hain Koun', 'Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam',' Karan Arjun', and all my other films. They just watched me on Dus Ka Dum because they didnt see an actor; they saw a person. Ever since 'Dus Ka Dum', Salman has hosted 'Bigg Boss' for 17 seasons.

Market outlook: RBI policy stance, Q2 earnings, West Asia tensions key triggers next week
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 4 (IANS) After a holiday-shortened week which saw benchmarks slip below a key psychological level as a worsening global backdrop overwhelmed domestic support, the Indian stock markets are geared up for the RBI policy decision and growth projections, along with the beginning of the Q2 earnings season. A meaningful de-escalation in West Asia could trigger a sharp relief rally next week, according to market watchers. The RBI policy stance, inflation outlook and growth projections will provide important cues on the near-term trajectory of domestic interest rates and financial markets. Last week, the bearish tone was evident from the start, with the Sensex declining 1.52 per cent on Monday, followed by relatively modest losses over the next two sessions before another 0.79 per cent decline on Thursday. Consequently, the Sensex shed 1,670.84 points to settle at 71,909.70, while the Nifty lost over 3 per cent to close at 22,421.95. The weekly price action reflects a clear continuation of the corrective phase, with Nifty witnessing its eighth consecutive weekly decline, said analysts. From a technical perspective, the weekly RSI is placed at around 31.06, remaining well below the neutral 50 mark and indicating weak momentum. The RSI is also significantly below its average near 46.27 and is approaching the oversold zone, suggesting that the index remains under pressure but may see intermittent technical pullbacks from lower levels, said analysts. On the upside, immediate resistance is placed at 22,800 and 23,000. A sustained move above this zone would be required to ease the prevailing selling pressure and improve the short-term structure, they added. On the downside, support is seen at 22,350 and 22,180. Global factors remain the dominant influence on market sentiment. Rising US Treasury yields, persistent inflation concerns and elevated energy prices keep investors cautious. The surge in long-term US bond yields also raised concerns over global financial conditions and the relative attractiveness of emerging-market assets. On the domestic front, economic activity remained resilient. Indias industrial production growth accelerated to 8.0 per cent year-on-year in August from an upwardly revised 7.4 per cent in July. Manufacturing output grew 9 per cent, while electricity and gas supply expanded 12.3 per cent. Developments in the energy market will remain a crucial trigger for market sentiment. Brent crude has retreated from its recent highs as crude exports through the Strait of Hormuz recovered closer to pre-war levels. The global macroeconomic calendar will also remain important, with key US high-frequency data, including the nonfarm payrolls report and ISM Manufacturing PMI, likely to influence market sentiment.
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 4 (IANS) Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLA Ram Kadam on Sunday took a swipe at Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, saying that rather than reiterating allegations of vote chori over the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls, the latter should clearly say that he is against removal of bogus voters. Speaking to IANS, Kadam remarked: In the future, whenever a list is made of those leaders who keep on lying, Rahul Gandhi's name will be mentioned at the top. Months before, Congress itself took out a rally to remove 'bogus voters' in Maharashtra and was even demanding the postponement of polls. Rahul Gandhi has a habit of forgetting things, and that is why he doesn't remember the demands of his own party, he said. Asserting that SIR is a process to clean the electoral rolls, the BJP leader stated that allegations made without evidence amount to an attack on democracy. Further, Ram Kadam accused LoP Gandhi of humiliating the Constitution and the Constitutional establishments. Instead of reiterating 'vote chori' allegations, Rahul Gandhi should clearly say that he doesn't want the removal of bogus voters, he remarked. Ram Kadam also criticised senior Congress leader and former Union Minister P. Chidambaram, saying: Does he not know about the rally undertaken by his party in Mumbai, demanding removal of bogus voters? Unfortunately, he belongs to that party, whose leader, Rahul Gandhi, maligns India's name during his foreign visits. On Saturday, Chidambaram lashed out at Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar, saying the wisest thing that the poll body head could do is to step down immediately, amid reports of internal differences within the Election Commission. Further, Kadam referred to the Opposition's allegations against the CEC as planned conspiracy, questioning: Why would our enemies want our country to progress? Today, heads of countries like America, Australia and Russia are praising India and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. This is the appreciation for all 140 crore Indians, as today the country is developing at a fast pace, he asserted. Referring to the 7.8 per cent increase in real GDP, the BJP MLA said: Looking at this progress, some of our enemies sitting abroad are funding people here to insult our Constitutional establishments and spread anarchy. Unfortunately, Congress, both the Thackeray brothers (Uddhav Thackeray and Raj Thackeray) and the country's Opposition are first in line to do so, he alleged.

Shai Hope sets multiple ODI records with record 162 in New Chandigarh
West Indies captain Shai Hope etched his name in the record books with a magnificent 162 as he registered the highest individual score by a West Indies batter in a successful ODI run chase, powering his side to a historic five-wicket win over India in the third and final ODI here on Saturday.

She revealed that she suffered nosebleeds every day during her stay.

My first trip to LadakhLadakh is not at all easy; It's truly a test of endurance. The region gives you another perspective of life..
