Anushka Sen continues to build her presence as a recognisable Gen Z face for brands aiming to connect with young, digitally active audiences. Her latest collaboration with Oreo for its limited-edition BTS x Oreo collection highlights her growing association with campaigns centred around youth and global pop culture. As part of the collaboration, Anushka brings the BTS-themed purple Oreo cookies into her Sen Kitchen Diaries world, pairing them with custom Dalgona coffee and relaxed K-drama watch nights. The campaign integrates the product with content that reflects interests already familiar to her audience, rather than relying solely on a conventional brand promotion. The collaboration also highlights Anushkas connection with both Indian and Korean youth culture. With Korean music, K-dramas, food and fashion gaining popularity among Indian audiences, her interest in Korean culture gives her an opportunity to connect these two spaces for brands exploring the crossover. The Oreo association adds to the list of brands that have featured Anushka in their campaigns. Her digital presence and connection with Gen Z audiences allow brands to reach younger consumers while creating visibility and conversations around their campaigns. Her content often combines entertainment, lifestyle and pop culture in a format suited to digital audiences. As brands increasingly seek personalities who can communicate with Gen Z without making campaigns feel overly commercial, Anushkas digital-first presence helps bring global trends closer to Indian audiences. Her familiarity with pop culture and lifestyle content also allows her to work across different forms of brand storytelling. The Oreo x BTS collaboration further reflects Anushkas growing presence in campaigns that tap into global youth culture while presenting it through a lens that connects with Indian audiences.

Operation Safed Sagar has reached the No. 2 position on Netflixs Global Top 10 Non-English TV List, according to the streaming platform. The six-episode series have remained on the list for two consecutive weeks and has entered the Top 10 across 40 countries, while ranking No. 1 in 10 countries. The development comes as Netflix announces The Last Salute, a documentary centred on the MiG-21 fighter aircraft and its 62-year association with the Indian Air Force. Produced by Matchbox Shots and directed by Kushal Srivastava, the documentary will premiere exclusively on Netflix on August 26. Operation Safed Sagar, produced by Matchbox Shots and Feel Good Films, is inspired by the Indian Air Forces role during the 1999 Kargil War. The series follows the events surrounding the conflict and focuses on the personnel involved in the operation. The show has also received recognition from the Indian Air Force, with Chief of the Air Staff, Air Chief Marshal A.P. Singh, describing it as being very close to reality and noting its portrayal of the atmosphere during the Kargil War. The MiG-21 features prominently in the aerial sequences of Operation Safed Sagar. The aircraft was flown by the Golden Arrows Squadron during the Kargil War, and the series also marks its final filmed appearance in action before its retirement from service. The Last Salute shifts the focus from the events depicted in the series to the aircraft itself. The documentary will feature Air Chief Marshal A.P. Singh along with pilots who flew the MiG-21 during different periods of its service. It will include personal recollections, stories from pilots and archival material examining the aircrafts role in the Indian Air Force. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Netflix India (@netflix_in) Talking about the response to Operation Safed Sagar and the upcoming documentary, Tanya Bami, Series Head, India, Netflix said, We are so excited and humbled by the love and adulation that the show is getting from across the country, the world and the armed forces. You know a story has connected with the audience when the conversations and recommendations are palpable. Ever since its launch, Operation Safed Sagar has taken over the internet with rave reviews about the storytelling, characters, the authentic world of the Indian Air Force and the depth of research from critics and audiences alike. When a project is made with genuine passion, it resonates extraordinarily with audiences. Weve seen this across several of our titles this year, but Operation Safed Sagar stands out as the clearest example its reception has been nothing short of a resounding success and we are extremely thankful to the audience for making this story their symbol of national pride this independence day. The show is making us all extremely proud as its hit the #2 spot on the Global Non- English list today! Its incredibly rewarding to see a well-told, distinctly Indian story resonate so powerfully with audiences across the globe. And we are taking our collaboration with the IAF further through another story from this world. The MiG-21 became such an integral part of the stories we heard from pilots that we knew its legacy deserved to be explored in its own right. The Last Salute, coming to Netflix on August 26, is a tribute to its 62 years with the Indian Air Force, and to the generations of pilots for whom it became much more than an aircraft. Sanjay Routray, Producer, Matchbox Shots, said, Operation Safed Sagar on Netflix introduced audiences to an untold and incredible chapter of the Indian Air Forces story, and the response from around the world has been incredibly humbling. While making the series, we realised that the MiG-21 wasnt just an aircraft, it was an emotion for generations of air warriors. The Last Salute takes that story further, exploring the extraordinary bond between the MiG-21 and the generations of fighter pilots who flew it. We hope audiences who connected with Operation Safed Sagar will now experience this deeply personal tribute to an aircraft that helped shape Indian aviation history. With Operation Safed Sagar continuing its run on Netflix, The Last Salute will offer a separate documentary perspective on the aircraft that played a significant role in the history of the Indian Air Force. Operation Safed Sagar is currently streaming on Netflix, while The Last Salute premieres on August 26.

Tumbbad 2 makers find original 'Atte Ki Gudiya moulds, lock opener from first film during recce
The team of Tumbbad 2 recently made an unexpected discovery while scouting locations for the upcoming sequel. During a recce at the wada where the first film was shot, the team found original props and elements that had been used during the making of Tumbbad. Among the items discovered were the original moulds used to create the film's iconic atte ki gudiya. The moulds had reportedly remained at the location since the first film's shoot. The team also came across the original lock opener from the wada, another element that had featured in Tumbbad. A crew member recalled the moment of discovery and said, We had gone to the wada purely for the recce and didnt expect to come across anything from the first film. When we found the atte ki gudiya moulds, there was an instant sense of nostalgia because these were things we had actually used while making Tumbbad. Then we discovered the original lock opener as well. It was quite surreal to see these things still there after all these years. In a way, it felt like the location had preserved little pieces of the film for us to find when we came back. The discovery comes as the team prepares to return to the world established by the 2018 film. Starring Sohum Shah, Tumbbad developed a cult following for its folklore-inspired narrative, distinctive production design and atmospheric visuals. The film also returned to cinemas in 2024, finding a new audience and performing strongly at the box office. The sequel has further raised expectations with Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Alia Bhatt joining the cast. Actor-producer Sohum Shah announced their association with Tumbbad 2 in July. Sohum Shah is leading the project under his banner Sohum Shah Films in collaboration with Pen Studios. Adesh Prasad is directing the sequel.

For Randeep Hooda, photography has been closely connected with the way he observes the world. His interest in the medium began with his fascination for wildlife and forests, eventually influencing how he approached filmmaking and visual composition. Hooda has often spoken about how photographing nature helped him develop a better understanding of framing. According to the actor-filmmaker, experimenting with composition through a still camera eventually became useful when he stepped behind the camera to direct. The composition that I experiment with on my camera helped me in framing the film shots, from bringing attention to certain parts of the frame to how to make an aesthetic framing, Hooda said. His interest in photography developed through his visits to forests, where he initially went simply to experience nature. Over time, carrying a camera changed the way he observed his surroundings. Earlier I used to go to the jungle and enjoy the beauty. Then I brought a camera, he recalled. That experience became particularly relevant when Hooda made his directorial debut with Swatantrya Veer Savarkar. His familiarity with light, composition and visual details through photography helped him approach filmmaking with a more considered eye. However, Hooda also believes the widespread availability of cameras has changed how photographs are perceived. With smartphones making photography accessible to almost everyone, he feels the sheer volume of images has affected their value. Now everybody gets to capture what they like, but the value of a photograph has also diminished because they are available in abundance. The reverence of that one superbly framed shot has become less, he said. Despite this, his connection with wildlife photography continues. For Hooda, spending time in nature remains an exercise in observation, where waiting for the right moment and composition can be as important as capturing it.
