Mumbai, Sep 24 (PTI) The rupee stayed weak, sliding 11 paise to 95.84 against the US dollar in early trade on Thursday, as geopolitical uncertainties led to a sharp surge in crude oil prices and pushed US bond yields as well as the greenback higher. Forex traders said the inflow of foreign capital failed to support the local currency due to the selling pressure in the domestic equity market and a strengthening American currency.

Vir Das becomes first Indian performer with three International Emmy nominations for Full Volume
Vir Das has received his third International Emmy nomination, with his latest Netflix stand-up special Vir Das: Fool Volume earning a nomination at the International Emmy Awards. With this recognition, Das becomes the first Indian performer to receive three International Emmy nominations for his work. The nomination adds another milestone to Das international career. His International Emmy journey began in 2021, when his Netflix special Vir Das: For India was nominated in the Comedy category. In 2023, he returned to the nominations with Vir Das: Landing, which went on to win the International Emmy for Comedy. The win also made him the first Indian comedian to receive the honour. With Fool Volume, Das is now a three-time International Emmy nominee, with all three nominations coming for his Netflix comedy specials. The latest recognition also marks another collaboration with Netflix, with Vir Das: Fool Volume being his fifth special for the streaming platform. The special was shot across Mumbai, London and New York. It was shaped by an unexpected setback when Das lost his voice shortly before he was scheduled to shoot the show. He subsequently rewrote the special in silence and performed much of it without rehearsal. The experience became central to the themes explored in the special, including silence, happiness, foolishness and finding ones voice. Speaking about the nomination, Vir Das said, Theres something wonderfully strange about being nominated for an International Emmy for a show called Fool Volume. This special came from a period when I literally lost my voice, so to see something that began in silence travel this far is pretty surreal. For India was the first time I understood that our comedy could find a home on a global stage, Landing gave me an Emmy, and now Fool Volume has brought me back into that conversation. Im incredibly grateful to Netflix, my team and everyone who helped make this very strange, very personal show. Three nominations is something I never imagined when we made the first one, so Im just going to enjoy the fact that the fool keeps getting louder. The latest nomination adds to Das record of recognition at the International Emmys and continues the global journey of his stand-up work. With all three of his nominations coming for Netflix specials, Fool Volume marks another chapter in his association with the streaming platform.

The singer said that this song is deeply close to her.

Feels like a beautiful full-circle moment. Coming out on 25th September.Pre-save link is available now. #HearItFirst. Devdas is a period romantic drama film directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. The film stars Madhuri Dixit in lead roles, with Jackie Shroff, Kirron Kher, Smita Jaykar, and Vijayendra Ghatge. Based on the Bengali-language 1917 novel of the same name by Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay, the film narrates the story of Devdas Mukherjee, a wealthy law graduate who returns from London to marry his childhood friend, Parvati. However, the rejection of their marriage by his own family sparks his descent into alcoholism, ultimately leading to his emotional deterioration. As for Shreya, director Sanjay Leela Bhansali discovered her during her appearance on the reality show Sa Re Ga Ma, and she recorded this track when she was just 16 years old. She sang five songs in total for Devdas, including Dola Re Dola and Silsila Ye Chahat Ka, but Bairi Piya was the very first one she recorded for the film.

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Sep 24 (IANS) Six-time world champion boxer Mary Kom opened up about one of the darkest phases of her life, where she recalled that she had contemplated ending her life but chose to keep going for the sake of her young children.

Digital Desk | Mumbai, Sep 24 (IANS) Actress Manasi Joshi Roy, who essays the titular role in the television show Lakshmi Niwas, has shared that she once consumed by the peripherals of Ganeshotsav that she felt she was losing connection with Lord Ganpati. The actress said that she and her husband stopped celebrating Ganeshotsav until 2023, when her husband Rohit Roy insisted on bringing Ganpati home. She told IANS, Year after year Lord Ganpati came to our house. From 1.5 days we started keeping his idol for 3 days & the scope of the whole thing kept increasing. It was an endless flow of people, food, preparations & then suddenly one year I felt that I has lost my connect with HIM because I was too busy with the peripherals. When I mentioned this to my sister in law who is more religious than me & has been having HIM at home way before we started she said We are so busy with everything that I couldn't have a conversation with my God. Thats when it struck her that the celebrations have turned into a big social event. She said that she somewhere stopped having a conversation with God. She further mentioned, I could only sit in front of him late at night & feel connected. The day just went by in a blur & no its not that we didnt love it. Its just that we wanted something else. Of course we all know that it wasn't meant to be a religious festival, it was started by Lokmanya Tilak to facilitate larger gatherings of people without invoking the suspicion of the British. And so forth & so on. Yet its become this big huge event with people saying, Oh my gosh I have so many places to go & the ones who have him at home are constantly busy with all the social activity. And so in 2015 we stopped celebrating Ganeshotsav. He was in our Mandir & our prayers all year round, just not doing the whole rituals. But they say, God works in mysterious ways. This year nearly a decade later, in 2023 Rohit said, I want to bring Ganu home this year on Ganesh Chaturthi. But in a simple way. He just wanted to be with him. And thats exactly what he did & we continue to do so now, she added.

Tourists stop to soak in Zojilas beauty
Ganderbal: The iconic Zojila Pass is witnessing a new trend among tourists travelling between Kashmir and Ladakh, with visitors increasingly stopping at the high-altitude pass to enjoy the landscape, sip hot tea and capture photographs and videos. Located at around 14,649 feet above sea level, Zojila is known for its challenging terrain and unpredictable weather. The stretch also remains particularly cold, and even during the summer months, tourists can encounter rain and chilly conditions at the pass. A signboard reading I Love Zojila, installed by the Border Roads Organisation (BRO), has become a popular spot for tourists to stop and take pictures. During a recent visit, tourists travelling towards Ladakh and Srinagar were seen spending time at the point, clicking photographs, recording reels and enjoying hot tea and snacks at temporary stalls operating along the route. We stayed here for almost half an hour just to capture photographs and videos. The view is beautiful and this is something we will remember, said Rahul Sharma, a tourist from Delhi, who was travelling towards Ladakh with his friends. Another tourist, Neha Verma from Jaipur, said the journey through Zojila was an experience in itself. The road looks challenging and at some places it feels adventurous, but the mountains and the landscape are breathtaking. We stopped here for tea and Maggi and really enjoyed the weather, she said. For Arjun Mehta from Mumbai, the stop at Zojila offered an opportunity to experience the mountain landscape up close. We had planned only a short stop, but after seeing the view and the I Love Zojila sign, we stayed longer for pictures and videos. The cold weather and mountains make this place special, he said. Tourists said that although the Zojila road is considered one of the more difficult stretches on the SrinagarLadakh route, the dramatic mountains, winding road and changing weather make the journey memorable.

Ayushmann Khurrana, Sara Ali Khan, producers Guneet Monga Kapoor, Achin Jain and Apoorva Mehta and director Aakash Kaushik attended the trailer of their film Udta Teer at a multiplex in Mumbai. The mediapersons were an annoyed lot as the event started 1 hours and 45 minutes late. However, Ayushmann apologized for the delay and said that he was stuck in heavy traffic. Ayushmann Khurrana assured that its a film like no other. He said, I don't think you can compare this movie to any other film because this is a genre bender for me. For me, it's India's first patriotic comedy! You have seen many spy films. This is a take on those spy films. Aisi film kabhi bani nahin hai. I even told Aakash, 'How did u think of this film?'. It's Aakash's brainchild and I loved working on the film. Ayushmann Khurrana continued, When you'll see the film, you'll realize that aap ne trailer mein kuch bhi nahin dekha. Every five minutes, new layers open up. We were struggling to cut a trailer, as we wondered kya rakhein aur kya nahin rakhein. This is just 20% of the film right now. UAE release? Often films based on the India-Pakistan relationship dont get a release in UAE-GCC countries. In recent times, movies like Gadar 2 (2023), Fighter (2024), Sky Force (2025), The Diplomat (2025), Article 370 (2024), Tiger 3 (2023), The Kashmir Files (2022), Dhurandhar (2025), Dhurandhar The Revenge (2026), etc. didnt get a release in all or several countries in the Middle East. A journalist asked producer Guneet Monga Kapoor whether fans of Ayushmann Khurrana and Soha Ali Khan in the UAE-GCC will get a chance to see Udta Teer? Guneet simply replied, It's going through the censors. Let's see! Udta Teer releases in cinemas on October 9.
