Tom Cruise recalls 'puking his guts out' on first fighter jet flight
Digital Desk | Mumbai, Oct 1 (IANS) Hollywood icon Tom Cruise recalled his first experience flying a fighter jet, saying that he puked his guts out while flying an A-4, before facing the same challenge on the first day of shooting aboard an F-14 for his blockbuster film franchise Top Gun. During his appearance on the Jennifer Hudson show, Cruise spoke about puking his guts out during his first time in a fighter jet. He said: I remember my first time in a fighter jet. I was flying an A-4 and I really puked my guts out. To which, the shows host asked: That didn't deter you? Cruise said: No. I was like, okay, I've got to figure this out. I don't want to keep puking the back of this airplane. We had to shoot a movie and then on the first day on the F-14, I puked again. He added: But I had two other hops, two flights the rest of that day and it was just magnificent. Hudson then spoke about how the third installment of Top Gun 3 is in the making. Keeping tight-lipped about the project, the star said: Maverick's going to be in it. There's going to be fighter jets. It's going to be cool. That's about all I can say. Top Gun was first released in 1986. The action drama film, which Tony Scott directs, was inspired by an article titled Top Guns, written by Ehud Yonay and published in California magazine three years earlier. It stars Tom Cruise as Lieutenant Pete Maverick Mitchell, a young naval aviator aboard the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise. He and his radar intercept officer, Lieutenant Nick Goose Bradshaw, are given the chance to train at the United States Navy's Fighter Weapons School at Naval Air Station Miramar in San Diego, California. Kelly McGillis, Val Kilmer, and Tom Skerritt also appear in supporting roles. A sequel, Top Gun: Maverick, released 36 years later in 2022, saw Cruise and Kilmer reprise their roles.

Judge clears final barrier to Paramount's $111 billion Warner Bros. deal
Paramount chief David Ellison, after a fierce year-long battle, is finally about to get his hands on Warner Bros. Discovery in the most expensive takeover in Hollywood history. On Wednesday, U.S. District Judge Araceli Martnez-Olgun, who is overseeing the antitrust case aimed at blocking the Paramount-Warner Bros. deal approved Paramounts settlement with the 12 Democratic state attorneys general who brought the case to resolve the litigation. More from Variety How HBO's Casey Bloys Wound Up With the Keys to Paramount-Warner Bros.' Streaming Empire, and What's to Come Paramount Deal and U.S. Film Incentive Reflect Hollywood's Deepening Ties to Government David Ellison Recruits Mattel's Ynon Kreiz for Senior Role at Merged Paramount-Warner Bros. Paramount has tentatively set next Tuesday, Oct. 6, to close the merger, according to regulatory filings. The order approving the settlement by Martnez-Olgun was the final remaining barrier to Paramounts debt-fueled $111 billion merger with Warner Bros. Discovery, after it had been cleared by regulators in 68 jurisdictions worldwide including the Justice Department. [T]he Court finds the proposed consent decree represents a reasonable factual and legal resolution of the dispute, Martnez-Olgun wrote in her order. She determined that the proposed settlement agreement reflects a procedurally sound resolution. The parties reached their agreement following highly contested, however brief, litigation, and they reached their agreement following what they report to have been several rounds of in-depth negotiations, the judge wrote. The merged Paramount-WBD will bring together two of Hollywoods biggest movie studios; the HBO Max and Paramount+ streaming services; and TV businesses including CBS, CNN, MTV, TBS, Comedy Central, Food Network and more. The new companys entertainment franchises will span Harry Potter, Game of Thrones and other HBO hits, the DC Universe, Yellowstone, Mission: Impossible, Top Gun and the Nickelodeon kids empire. Some of the top leadership of the soon-to-be-merged company, whose name hasnt been revealed at this point, is already taking shape. On Wednesday came word that Ellison has recruited Ynon Kreiz, who is stepping down as Mattels CEO, for a senior management role at the combined Paramount-WBD. Casey Bloys, head of WBDs HBO, is poised to assume oversight of the combined Paramount-Warner Bros. streaming business after Cindy Holland announced Tuesday she was stepping down from her role running Paramount+ and other direct-to-consumer. With the deal close, Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav is expected to depart. Zaslav stands to earn more than $550 million in stock and cash once the Paramount-WBD deal closes, including $34.2 million in cash severance payments. Other top WBD execs anticipated to exit include chief revenue and strategy officer Bruce Campbell and CFO Gunnar Wiedenfels. Martnez-Olguns ruling came after merger opponents filed official objections with the court over Paramounts settlement with the states . The consent decree includes no structural remedies (i.e., divestitures) as California Attorney General Rob Bonta, who led the coalition of states in suing to stop the looming merger, had previously insisted on. Among the terms of the settlement: Paramount-WBD is prohibited from selling the Paramount Studios or Warner Bros. lots in the state for at least five years, and is obligated to invest at least an additional $300 million on film production in the U.S. annually. The combined Paramount-WB also must release at least 30 movies for theatrical distribution in the first two years (something Ellison has repeatedly promised he would do) and at least 32 in years 3-5, with a 45-day window for wide-release films. The merged Paramount-Warner Bros. also will be subject to monitoring by a news editorial independence board, which will establish guiding editorial and journalism principles for for CNN and CBS News. Questioned by the judge last week about how the settlement addresses the state AGs concerns over fair competition in the three markets identified in the lawsuit wide-release movies, tentpole movies and basic cable Paula Blizzard, senior assistant attorney general for the antitrust section of the California Attorney Generals Office, said the reasoning was that the states were wary about permanently blocking the Paramount-WBD deal and she said Warner Bros. Discovery, if it were denied the deal to merge with Paramount, would likely seek another M&A partner. Sometimes we say, here are some remedies that will address the harm we see, but are not going to permanently change the structure by either completely blocking the merger or [requiring] divestment, and this is one of those cases, Blizzard told the judge. In her order, Martnez-Olgun wrote that she found that the proposed consent includes important backstops requiring divestment of studios and/or cable channels in case of the combined entitys failure to comply with the proposed consent decrees terms. Further, the proposed consent decree imposes these requirements on film distribution and basic cable negotiations in the midst of a rapidly changing marketplace. The Court therefore finds that the proposed consent decree reflects a settlement between the parties that is a fair, reasonable, and good faith approach to address the competitive harms alleged in the Complaint, and does not violate the law or public policy. The groups behind the #BlockTheMerger coalition, for one, filed an amicus brief with the court urging Martnez-Olgun to reject the settlement . And the judge had left open the door to a potential additional third-party review of the settlement: Martnez-Olguin asked both the AGs and Paramount to respond to a letter submitted by Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.) to urge the Court to subject the proposed consent decree to an independent public-interest review before entering it. In separate filings Monday, Paramount and the AGs countered that the deal was vigorously negotiated, has teeth and should not be subjected to an independent public interest review. Paramount lawyers argued that the deal resolves the AGs primary concern of a reduction in theatrical releases after it merges with Warner Bros. Discovery. Martnez-Olguin noted that Amici express dismay at many of the proposed consent decrees provisions. However, a proposed consent decree like this one represents a negotiated settlement that does not fully remediate an alleged violation or even necessarily resolve the ultimate factual and legal issues of a case.

Robert Downey Jr. blacked out from pain after breaking his ankle while filming Iron Man 3
Digital Desk | Los Angeles, Oct 1 (IANS) Hollywood star Robert Downey Jr. had an excruciating experience while filming Iron Man 3. The actor recently reflected on the time he broke his ankle while shooting for the film. The actor, 61, recently sat down for a chat with the author Ayad Akhtar about Akhtars new novel, The Radiance. During the event, the actor spoke about his on-set injury in 2012 after Akhtar, 55, asked him about the moments in life that bring unexpected joy or pleasure on the other side of an experience that you think would not be a good experience. Responding to the same, the actor said, Ill build on that because I remember I was once doing a wire jump, and I landed wrong and I just shattered my ankle. In the moment that it happened, all these realizations occurred where I realized, Oh my God, this rest of the shoot just got really different. I thought not only about the ramifications, but the pain was so great that after a few seconds I kind of blacked out from it. Then I remember saying to the crew once I could finally speak, because usually theyll say, Thats lunch, one half hour, I said, Thats lunch, roughly six weeks, he added. When Akhtar asked if the ensuing delay wound up costing the production six weeks, the actor said, No, it was much longer. I am a delicate flower. Iron Man 3 was the third solo movie in which he portrayed the title character during his run as Tony Stark. The movie was also his first appearance in the franchise after 2012s The Avengers, which shot the superhero movies into the space of mega-blockbusters.

Jharkhand shutdown evokes mixed response, traffic hit by road blockades in several districts
Digital Desk | Ranchi, Sep 30 (IANS) A statewide shutdown called on Wednesday by activists of the separate Jharkhand movement for pensions for agitators, jobs for dependents, among several other demands, evoked a mixed response across the state. Protesters blocked roads and disrupted traffic in districts such as Palamu, Giridih, and Bokaro, while normal life remained largely unaffected in several urban centres, including the state capital Ranchi. The bandh had a relatively stronger impact in Medininagar of Palamu , where agitators carrying bows, arrows and other traditional weapons took to the streets and blocked the busy Redma Chowk. Several protesters sat on the road as a mark of protest, causing long queues of vehicles on both sides. The blockade inconvenienced school children, commuters, and long-distance travellers. In Giridih, activists blocked the Giridih-Dumri main road near the old toll plaza at Paparwatand and raised slogans while sitting on the roadway. The blockade was later lifted following talks with the police. In Bokaro, protesters staged a road blockade at the ITI Mor area in Chas, disrupting the movement of local as well as goods-carrying vehicles for some time. The impact of the shutdown was hardly visible in Ranchi. Protesters briefly disrupted traffic near Albert Ekka Chowk in the morning, but the situation returned to normal after police and administrative officials intervened. The agitators later staged a sit-in at the nearby CPI office premises. Most markets in Ranchi remained open, while buses and autorickshaws continued to operate normally. Reports from Chatra and Garhwa indicated disruptions in the movement of buses and heavy commercial vehicles. In some parts of Ramgarh and Dhanbad, protesters appealed to traders to support the bandh, while local transportation was affected at some locations. The most impacted by the bandh were the long-distance bus services. Some services operating from Jamshedpur, Ranchi, Dhanbad and Hazaribagh to Bihar, West Bengal, Odisha, and various districts within Jharkhand were affected. They remained off roads largely as a precautionary measure. However, train services on major railway routes remained normal. Autorickshaws and e-rickshaws continued to operate in most towns and cities, although traffic congestion at key highway intersections caused temporary disruptions. Leaders of the agitation, including Pushkar Mahto and former MP Bhuvneshwar Prasad Mehta, said that several demands of Jharkhand movement activists remain unresolved even 26 years after the formation of the state. They warned that if the government fails to take a decision on their demands soon, an indefinite hunger strike would be launched across the state from November 15, the Jharkhand Foundation Day.

Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 30 (IANS) 'Save Democracy March' in each district, a detailed presentation before President Droupadi Murmu about the compromised electoral process, are some of the steps that the INDIA bloc will undertake in the coming days to exert pressure on the Election Commission and expose its wrongdoings before the common people. Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge, unveiling the Oppositions blueprint for intensified demonstrations against ECs partisan approach and malpractices, shared a detailed outline of how the INDIA bloc will stand up against electoral irregularities.

He further informed that five rallies have been planned, and the dates are being worked out. These will be organised across the country to tell people how they are being disenfranchised, and their voting rights are being snatched. We will explain to them how this will affect them. These rallies will be conducted in October and November, he informed. November 1 will see a huge rally in Delhi, where we will explain the vote chori by the EC, he said. Further, all the INDIA bloc leaders will appeal to the Supreme Court to expedite the pending cases pertaining to SIR and other electoral malpractices, Kharge said. He said that Rahul Gandhi has been consistently raising the issue of how vote chori was being done by the EC, to benefit the ruling party. He added that Mamata Banerjee also raised the matter on multiple accounts, but nobody paid heed. Escalating attack on the Centre, he said that the Modi government first used notebandi to crush the people and economy, and now was resorting to vote bandi to deprive people of their right to vote.

IGPL Invitational 2026: Varun Chopra, Shiv Kapur, Gaganjeet Bhullar could take centre stage
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 29 (IANS) All eyes will be on Varun Chopra and Shiv Kapur when the IGPL 2026 returns to Delhi at the Qutab Golf Course this week with the next event in the Capital renewing the rivalry that was only sharpened by what happened in the desert last week. All eyes will be on Varun Chopra and Kapur, who were involved in an absorbing battle for the title at Al Hamra Golf Club in Ras Al Khaimah in the United Arab Emirates. Throw in the challenge of the hungry Gaganjeet Bhullar of Chennai Lions GC, and the three-cornered contest will become even more electric. Bhullar, who won three times in 2025 and won the opening event in 2026, must be looking to add more silverware this week. The presence of Karandeep Kochhar will add further spice, as will the presence of players like Varun Parikh, Aman Raj, young Veer Ganapathy and more. Last week Varun Chopra, representing Auro Goa Eagles, emerged from the contest in AL Hamra with his maiden IGPL title, producing a closing 4-under 68 to finish at 14-under 202 to beat the experienced Kapur by two shots. Shiv Kapur had appeared to have the tournament firmly in his grasp after opening with a spectacular 10-under 62, including a hole-in-one, and followed it with a 69 to lead by three after 36 holes. But Chopra's final-day charge changed every line on the frame. Now, just days later, the two meet again, this time with Kapur playing in front of a home crowd as the star of the RVR Delhi Blue Bulls. And there will be a bigger pack chasing them for honours, prize money and team prizes. There is a delightful subplot to the rematch. Kapur's opening 62 in Ras Al Khaimah was one of the standout rounds of the season, while Chopra showed that he could withstand the pressure of chasing an experienced campaigner and close out a title. Their renewed contest at Qutab promises to have a different feel, with the Delhi Blue Bulls' leading man keen to turn the tables. The added charm has been the team contest as the franchises have come into the picture in a prominent way. Last week, Auro Goa Eagles pipped RVR to the team honours, which will run through the season. Playing on home turf, Kapur is the 2002 Asian Games gold medallist and a four-time winner in Asia, while the Blue Bulls squad also includes three-time Asian Tour winner Gaurav Ghei, Asian Tour winner Chiragh Kumar and young talent Aryan Roopa Anand. The franchise has positioned itself around the experience of Kapur and Ghei, while also using its Delhi identity to build a strong connection with the local golfing community. But if Kapur is looking to make the most of home advantage, Chopra will arrive with considerable confidence. His win in Ras Al Khaimah was not merely a first IGPL title; it came after he had twice been within touching distance of Kapur before producing the decisive final-round push. He also showed his scoring ability by opening that tournament with a 6-under 66. And then there is Gaganjeet Bhullar, who will be eager to get back into the winner's circle. Bhullar remains the winningest Indian on the Asian Tour with 11 victories and is also one of the leading figures of the IGPL. He has already established a formidable record on the new circuit, winning four IGPL titles, including three in the inaugural 2025 season and another earlier in 2026. Yet Ras Al Khaimah was not his week. Bhullar opened with a 3-under 69 and was among the players who had to fight back after an uneven back nine. That makes Qutab an intriguing opportunity for the seasoned campaigner. He knows how to win, knows how to handle pressure and, perhaps most importantly, knows that the difference between being in contention and lifting the trophy can sometimes be only a handful of putts. The Delhi event therefore brings together multiple narratives: Kapur seeking redemption on his home turf, Chopra trying to prove that his breakthrough was the beginning of something bigger, and Bhullar chasing another winning moment. Lurking not far behind are Kochhar and company. Another layer of competition will be the presence of some of the leading women like Ridhima Dilawari, Amandeep Drall and others, who are trying to fine-tune their game ahead of their marquee event, the Hero Womens Indian Open next month. The mens field includes several of the leading names on the IGPL, with the league's franchise format adding another thick slice to the individual battle. The Auro Goa Eagles and RVR Delhi Blue Bulls are among 10 franchises that form the competitive backbone of the tour, while the IGPL's wider structure continues to provide a pathway for established professionals and emerging players alike. Qutab Golf Course, meanwhile, provides the perfect stage. In a league designed to bring more personality, team identity and drama into professional golf, Delhi could deliver all three.

'Doctor Who' fans furious after BBC boss calls AI-generated episode
Highlights BBC Director-General Matt Brittin said he watched a 50-minute AI-generated episode of Doctor Who Brittin described the episode as pretty good while discussing the future of artificial intelligence His comments have sparked angry reactions from Doctor Who fans online The BBC is currently looking for a new production company to take the long-running sci-fi series forward Doctor Who fans have reacted angrily after BBC Director-General Matt Brittin revealed that he had watched a 50-minute episode of the sci-fi series made entirely using artificial intelligence.

His comments came during the Royal Television Societys London Convention, where the use of AI in television was a major topic of discussion. Brittin said that AI would not replace human creators, but argued that the technology was already giving people the ability to produce content at a level once associated with major Hollywood studios. Doctor Who fans react to AI comments Brittin said someone had recently sent him a 50-minute Doctor Who episode created using AI. It's pretty good, he said. He did not reveal who made the episode or whether it featured existing Doctor Who actors or entirely AI-generated characters. The remarks quickly drew strong reactions online, with some fans describing the idea of AI-generated Doctor Who as unacceptable and saying they would stop watching if the BBC adopted such an approach.

Mohit Sharma set to join CSK as bowling coach for IPL 2027
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 29 (IANS) Former India pacer Mohit Sharma is set to join Chennai Super Kings as the teams new bowling coach for IPL 2027, returning to the franchise where he spent four seasons as a player. The 38-year-old is expected to take over the bowling coach role from Eric Simmons, who served in the position under former head coach Stephen Fleming. CSK head coach Zaheer Khan has decided on having Mohit Sharma on board for the bowling coach role for IPL 2027. A word on the rest of CSK's support staff appointments is expected to arrive in the coming weeks, a source aware of the development told IANS on Tuesday. Mohit, who had also played for India in eight T20 matches, took part in the IPL as recently as during the 2025 season before retiring from the game altogether in December last year. He is closely linked with CSK, having played 48 IPL matches for the team over four seasons. Moreover, he played in 10 matches for the team during two seasons of the now defunct Champions League T20. Mohit was part of the CSK team during a successful phase for the franchise and is now expected to return in a coaching role as the team starts a new phase under Zaheer. CSK secured their fifth IPL title in 2023, but has not made it to the playoffs in each of the three most recent seasons. This continued decline ultimately caused the franchise to part ways with their long-serving head coach Fleming recently. Zaheer was then made the new head coach, Mohit now being the first major addition to his support staff before IPL 2027. The franchise is due to make more changes to its support staff in the coming weeks.

Asian Games: Dev Meena betters own national record with 5.50m clearance in pole vault
Digital Desk | Nagoya, Sep 29 (IANS) Indias Dev Kumar Meena bettered his own national record in the mens pole vault, clearing 5.50 m during the final at the Asian Games 2026 here on Tuesday. Meena began the final positively, effortlessly clearing 5.35m on his first attempt with a smooth, well-executed jump. He then took two attempts to jump over 5.20. However, the national record holder did not take much time to clear 5.50 m and did so on his first attempt, setting another record. Despite setting the record, Meena failed to clear the 5.60m in three attempts and brought an end to his campaign in the ongoing tournament. He finished seventh in the leaderboard. His counterpart, Kuldeep Kumar, failed to even clear 5.50m and finished in 10th position with a best of 5.35 m. Meena entered the competition holding the national record at 5.46 m, which he had set at the 65th National Inter-State Senior Athletics Championships in Bhubaneswar in June. Competing at the Kalinga Stadium, Meena cleared 5.46m to surpass the previous national mark of 5.45m, which he had shared with compatriot Kuldeep Kumar after their joint effort at the Federation Cup in Ranchi in May. The 5.46 m clearance also helped Meena achieve the qualification standard for the Asian Games. Meena cleared the record height in his final attempt after successfully negotiating 5.00m, 5.20m and 5.35m. Five days after sharing the national record with Kuldeep at the Federation Cup, Meena had taken sole possession of the mark in Bhubaneswar. His latest effort in Japan saw him improve that record by another four centimetres. The 21-year-olds rise has been rapid, with the national record in mens pole vault changing hands several times during the 2026 season. Kuldeep had initially raised the mark to 5.41m in May before Meena and Kuldeep both cleared 5.45m at the Federation Cup. Meena then moved the record to 5.46m at the Inter-State Championships before raising it further to 5.50m at the Asian Games. Meena had earlier finished fourth at the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, where he cleared 5.30 m and narrowly missed out on a podium finish.

'It Feels Like We Are Playing At Home,' Says Deepti On Special UP Warriorz Bond
UP Warriorz: UP Warriorz all-rounder Deepti Sharma has underlined the unique bond she shares with the franchise, saying her roots in Uttar Pradesh and the support from the local crowd give her added motivation to perform in the Womens Premier League (WPL). With the five franchises having finalised their retention lists ahead of the 2027 player auction in Kochi on October 28, Deepti reflected on what playing for a team representing her home state means to her. As a player, I always think about how I can stay level-headed, and that mindset pushes me to keep improving. It feels like a great opportunity for me because I belong to UP, from Agra and playing for the UP Warriorz makes that connection special. It gives me extra motivation to perform. When the WPL family comes to watch, it becomes even more enjoyable. The crowd supports us, and it feels like we are playing at home. That kind of backing gives you confidence on the field. I want to contribute as much as I can for this team and make the fans proud, Deepti told JioStar. Deepti has also embraced the responsibility of finishing innings for Warriorz, a role that requires her to assess the situation quickly and remain composed when the pressure is at its highest. The finishers are the ones who close out the game at the end and, I have been given that role with the bat for the UP Warriorz in whatever matches I have played, right from the start. So, I always think that whatever position I bat at or however many balls I face, I must finish the job. And whatever total is on the board, that stays in my mind. I know how many balls are left and I must get the team to that total. If I stay calm and back my skills, I know I can get the job done. When we think like this during the innings, we learn a lot from that experience. Every match teaches you something new about handling pressure and finishing games, she added. Deeptis comments come as Warriorz prepare to reshape their squad after two successive seasons at the bottom of the WPL standings. The franchise has released several prominent overseas and domestic players, including Deandra Dottin, Chloe Tryon, Amy Jones, Asha Sobhana, Shweta Sehrawat and Kiran Navgire. The overhaul leaves Warriorz with an opportunity to rebuild their squad at the auction, where all five teams will seek to fill the vacant slots on October 28. Each franchise can have a maximum of 18 players. Deeptis comments come as Warriorz prepare to reshape their squad after two successive seasons at the bottom of the WPL standings.
