Hina Khan says 'Actors have an option to opt out' on Kriti Sanon's Rakhi Ad controversy
Mumbai, Sep 6 (IANS) Popular television actress Hina Khan shared her views on the Kriti Sanon Raksha Bandhan ad controversy. During a recent episode of her talk show 'The4POV, Hina discussed the massive backlash faced by Kriti for her recent appearance in a Raksha Bandhan advertisement for a jewellery brand. While talking to husband Rocky Jaiswal, and actors Rubina Dilaik and Abhinav Shukla, Hina said that actors always have a choice to opt out of a project. She shared, Sometimes, some brands are very adamant on a certain sort of their creative. They want to do it their way. As an actor, you always have the option of opting out, considering that it may backfire. Maybe it was not well thought, or maybe they thought it may not become what it became. However, Hina added that Kriti did not deserve the kind of reaction she received from the netizens. Pointing out that things sometimes tend to blow out of proportion, the 'Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai' actress went on to say, The level at which... what happened and what is happening, no one deserves so much. Ek cheez hogayi, aapne itna socha nahi and it happened. But then people don't let it go. It becomes big and very big. Hina shared that she does not blame either Kriti or the brand, as they are entitled to their opinions. However, she reiterated her point, saying, We as actors always have the option of opting out. When you do any project, you are told that all is going to happen. Kriti recently faced a lot of criticism for wearing an off-white ensemble featuring a bralette-style blouse, a cape, and a draped skirt for an advertisement for a jewellery brand named GIVA on the occasion of Raksha Bandhan. Some of the netizens were of the opinion that the attire was not appropriate as per Indian traditions. The ad was eventually withdrawn by the brand.

Duleep Trophy: Chief Selector Ajit Agarkar Watches Final After Missing BCCI Review Meeting
Joint Secretary Prabhtej Singh Bhatia: Ajit Agarkar, Chairman of the senior mens selection committee, was spotted in the stands at the MA Chidambaram Stadium here on Sunday to watch the Duleep Trophy final between South Zone and East Zone. It marked Agarkars first public appearance days after missing a crucial BCCI review meeting in Mumbai. Agarkar, sitting alone in the corporate box on day ones play, monitored the action as several India and domestic stars pressed their cases ahead of upcoming India A assignments. His presence comes after his absence from last Thursday's review meeting, convened to address recent series losses in England and Ireland, as well as chalk out the roadmap for 2027 Mens ODI World Cup. His absence fueled widespread speculation regarding his future with the national selection panel. Addressing concerns over his absence, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) secretary Devajit Saikia clarified that Agarkar was unable to attend the meeting due to prior travel arrangements and connectivity constraints. He was out of station. He could not be a part of the meeting because this meeting was called at very short notice, and our head of the selection committee, Ajit, was not in town, so he could not join it. He was in such an area that he could not join online, in spite of our best efforts, Saikia had told reporters at that time. The high-level review meeting in Mumbai was attended by head coach Gautam Gambhir, Test and ODI captain Shubman Gill, and T20I skipper Shreyas Iyer, as well as BCCI President Mithun Manhas, Joint Secretary Prabhtej Singh Bhatia, and CoE head of cricket VVS Laxman. With reports pointing to Agarkar's contract likely to end later this month, Saikia dismissed rumours that the meeting included deliberations on the selection committee's tenure or future administrative extensions. The high-level review meeting in Mumbai was attended by head coach Gautam Gambhir, Test and ODI captain Shubman Gill, and T20I skipper Shreyas Iyer, as well as BCCI President Mithun Manhas, Joint Secretary Prabhtej Singh Bhatia, and CoE head of cricket VVS Laxman.

When Hrithik Roshan revealed why makeup is essential to bringing a character to life
Mumbai, Sep 6 (IANS) Actor Hrithik Roshan once opened up about the massive role makeup plays in bringing a character to life on screen. Speaking during a media interaction, Hrithik explained that there are two types of makeup. He said that there is makeup that helps make one look good on screen. However, Hrithik added that such makeup does not have much potential. He shared that the other type of makeup helps create a look and personality that is extremely different from that of the actor playing that particular part. Hrithik explained, If you talk about doing characters in films, one kind of makeup is the makeup that makes your face look good, and that has got a very limited potential as far as an actor is concerned. When you talk about acting and films, and you talk about characters, it's very very important to sort of have somebody who can create a look that is very detached to your own personal self. Sharing an example from his own experience, he talked about his 2003 release, 'Koi... Mil Gaya', Hrithik added, So like for example, if I'm doing a 'Koi Mil Gaya', there's a lot of makeup effort that goes into creating that look. It's not just acting. Acting actually comes as a second step for me as an actor. I get my hair right first, I get my face right first, the makeup right first, and then that helps me sink my teeth into the character further. Hrithik made a sensational debut back in 2000 with the romantic entertainer 'Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai (2000)', alongside Ameesha Patel. Some of his other noteworthy projects include 'Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (2001)', 'Koi... Mil Gaya (2003), 'Lakshya (2004)', 'Dhoom 2 (2006)', 'Jodhaa Akbar (2008), 'Guzaarish (2010)'. 'Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (2011)', 'Agneepath (2012)', 'Super 30 (2019)', 'Bang Bang! (2014)', 'War (2019)', and 'Fighter (2024)'.

Rajkumar Santoshi on the current cinematic era: Will not blindly follow the trend
Mumbai, Sep 6 (IANS) Filmmaker Rajkumar Santoshi opened up about the current cinematic era in the country. During an exclusive interaction with IANS, the director said that nowadays, movies are full of abuses and bold content, whereas his films have always been clean and rooted in family values. He added that while he will always make it a point to stay up-to-date in terms of technology, he will not make content simply to please the audience. Rajkumar Santoshi shared that he will always work on the subject close to his heart. The 'Ghatak' maker told IANS, I will only do what I believe in. Technologically, I will try to constantly update myself. Improve myself as much as I can because today's audience is not the same as it was in the 90s. So, keeping in mind their excitement level, I will do my best technically so that they don't get bored with the narrative. I will work hard on that, but content-wise, I will not do anything that people like. The filmmaker added that he does not believe in making sequels, which seems to be the ongoing trend today. I will go by my heart. What my heart says. I will make that subject, he concluded. Meanwhile, Rajkumar Santoshi recently collaborated with Sunny Deol for the period drama, 'Batwara 1947'.

Tabu had claimed that she is a director's actor and hence her performance depends heavily on the filmmaker.

Tabu stated that even if she has been blessed with a good role, it is up to the director to get the best out of her. The 'Andhadhun' actress said, I think my performance and more than performance, I think whether the film is good or bad depends on the director. So, it is very important for me that the director is good. Firstly, I want the film's director to be good and sensible, and then my role, obviously. Because I have to have a good director. Even if it's a good role, the director has to get out the best from me. I depend on the director. I am a director's artist, she added.

Muzammil Ibrahim on working with Salman Khan: Have idolised him since childhood
Mumbai, Sep 6 (IANS) Actor Muzammil Ibrahim will soon be seen sharing the screen with Bollywood heartthrob Salman Khan in director Vamshi Paidipallys eagerly awaited action entertainer tentatively titled 'SVC63'. Speaking exclusively to IANS, Muzammil spilled his excitement about working with Salman in his next. Muzammil revealed that he has idolised Salman ever since he was a child. He told IANS, My mother was very happy. Obviously, it is a big thing for me that Salman Khan, whom I have been idolizing since childhood, I got to work with him. Muzammil added that he has always wished to work with Salman but on his own terms. I always wanted to work with him on my terms. Although we have some common friends, I used to meet him in a very formal setting. So I always wanted to meet him for work. It was very fortunate that I went to the set as the director approached me for a role. I felt very proud that I got to work with him, he went on to add. He said that despite being awestruck by the charm and charisma of Salman, he treated him just like any other actor when the camera was on. It is a fanboy moment that you work with someone whom you idolize for the first time; however, it gets cut off before the scene. When the director says action, he does it. At that time, everyone is an actor for me. No matter who they are, Muzammil concluded. Coming back to 'SVC63', the project marks the Bollywood debut of filmmaker Vamshi Paidipally. The yet-untitled project will also see Southern actress Nayanthara as part of the core cast. This is the first time that Salman and Nayanthara have come together for a movie.

You need to definitely make sure that it sets right but when I sing I don't pay attention to the people with me on stage. I don't even know who is dancing or performing but now I am used to it. My band is almost the same, I have kept the same band. So, they know where I will breathe, where I will take a pause. The world on stage is not normal. It's a different world, you are in trance, you are connected to God or maybe you have reached somewhere else. You have to stay there. I don't care who is performing or what is happening around. What matters is that people who have come to see me. Whether they have spent money or not, they have come to see me. So I should respect them, and I should make them feel as special as they have made me feel. I have a specialty whether there are 2000 people in the crowd or more, I look into everyone's eyes it's my effort and people feel that Akhil is looking at me. So, I have a connection with my audience. I can't say much I think God has given me this, and I respect it, he added.

Parmish Verma says he has zero space for negativity after announcing divorce from wife Geet Grewal
Mumbai, Sep 6 (IANS) Punjabi singer-actor Parmish Verma has shared a message about staying away from negativity in life, days after announcing his separation from wife Geet Grewal. Taking to Instagram, the Gaal Ni Kadni singer shared glimpses from his fathers birthday celebration and expressed his admiration for him. Parmish also emphasized the importance of keeping negativity at bay. Sharing images, he wrote, Negativity di thaan Zindagi ch Zero, Ni main kisse da ni fan, Mera Bapu mera Hero (Zero space for negativity in life. Im not a fan of anyone; my father is my hero.) The photos show the actor posing with his father, mother, and brother, Sukhan Verma. In one of the images, Parmish is seen feeding a piece of cake to his dad. The other pictures capture him posing with his mother and sharing sweet moments with his family. The post comes a day after the Punjabi singer-actor confirmed his divorce from Geet Grewal in a social media statement. Parmish also acknowledged that there is a woman in his life at present. His clarification came amid weeks of trolling and speculation surrounding his alleged relationship with actress and model Harman Brar, along with claims that he had been unfaithful to his former wife, Geet Grewal. Parmish wrote, Being a man makes you a convenient psychological scapegoat; blame the gender, simplify the story, and the mob gets to feel morally superior. I understand the psychology of it, and I accept the burden without resentment. When I was drowning, nobody came to save me. I dealt with my own consequences, carried my own pain, and learned to stand again. That, too, is being a man. The singer added, So is having the discipline to respect my ex-wife, respect the woman in my life today, and never confuse bitterness with masculinity. What isn't manhood is weakness disguised as virtue, becoming a weasel in a mob, feeding an agenda for attention and money, and calling cowardice morality. I know what I am. I would rather be hated for standing upright than applauded for crawling with the crowd. I'm proud of the man I became.

Meghna Gulzar reveals what fuels her as a storyteller
Mumbai, Sep 6 (IANS) Filmmaker Meghna Gulzar, who is gearing up for the release of her upcoming film Daayra starring Prithviraj Sukumaran and Kareena Kapoor Khan, has revealed what drives her as a storyteller. The filmmaker spoke with IANS during the promotions of the film in the Andheri West area of Mumbai. When asked what fuels her as a storyteller, she said, Well, the fuel primarily actually is life. It's the story that from where the film comes, that is the first and foremost driving force. Apart from that, I do consume a lot more non-fiction than fiction. She told IANS, I have studied sociology as my graduation subject. So there is a sense of a radar which is open to what is going on in your society and your world. Apart from that, I think it's just a general awareness in the world that you live in and trying to constantly be aware of it and stay in tune with it and keep abreast of what is going on. Meanwhile, Daayra is a crime thriller, and promises a sharp, socially grounded narrative, and stars Kareena in a complex, morally conflicted role that explores justice, power, and systemic grey zones. The project marks a significant collaboration, blending Kareenas recent inclination toward layered, content-driven characters with Meghna Gulzars restrained, issue-oriented storytelling style seen in Talvar, Raazi, and Sam Bahadur. Earlier, the filmmaker said that while both Prithviraj and Kareenas characters are approaching the case from different angles, they dont belong to opposite ends of the spectrum. She earlier told IANS, They are actually not at the opposite ends of the spectrum. They are part of the same spectrum. They are part of the same world of law enforcement and the police force. It is circumstances that put them on opposite sides of an incident. Produced by Vineet Jain under the banner of Junglee Pictures, the film is scheduled to release in theatres on September 18, 2026.

FIIs net seller for 3 trading sessions last week, DIIs continue to buy
Mumbai, Sep 6 (IANS) Foreign institutional investors (FIIs) were net seller for three sessions during last week including the quarterly MSCI index rebalancing session on Monday (August 31, 2026), according to analysts. Domestic institutional investors (DIIs) were net buyer in all five sessions during last week. FIIs stayed on the sell side for a third consecutive week during last week, offloading Rs 56.1 billion worth of Indian equities, while DIIs extended their buying streak with net purchases of Rs 231.6 billion, said Pabitro Mukherjee, Deputy Vice President-Research, Bajaj Broking. Benchmark indices extended decline for the fourth week in a row as a sharp surge in crude oil prices amid escalating geopolitical tensions in West Asia weighed heavily on investor sentiment. Renewed geopolitical tensions and a sharp rise in crude oil prices remained the biggest headwinds for Indian equities during the week. Market breadth remained fairly resilient despite the continued weakness in benchmark indices. Domestic liquidity and stock-specific buying continued to offer support, with selective small-cap stocks witnessing buying interest while mid-cap stocks remained under pressure. Fridays recovery was supported by metals, insurance and selected financial stocks, showing that investors are shifting towards sectors displaying better relative performance.

Instead, buying remains focused on companies with better earnings visibility and improving relative strength. Buying demand at lower levels saw the index closed off the lows at 23,897 levels down by 1.2 per cent.
