Tara Sutaria says her parents treated her and her sister like equals: That gives a child so much confidence

Tara Sutaria has often spoken about different aspects of her life in the public eye, but during a recent appearance on Fashionably Pernia, the actor opened up about something more personal: the way she and her sister were raised by their parents. Speaking about her childhood, Tara said her parents made a conscious effort to treat both daughters as equals and gave their opinions importance from an early age. According to the actor, being treated with that level of respect helped her develop confidence and a stronger sense of self. My mom and dad kind of always treated my sister and me like we were equals. We were kind of treated like adults when we were kids, and our opinions always mattered, Tara said. The actor believes that allowing children to feel heard can have a lasting impact on their confidence. For Tara, this was also reflected in the way disagreements were handled at home. I think that gives a child so much confidence. We also enjoy arguing, which I think sometimes families feel out of respect, kids might not feel comfortable having a healthy argument. Like our family loves to agree to disagree. And I love that about our family, she shared. For Tara, the ability to disagree openly became another part of growing up in an environment where her voice was valued. She suggested, So I think that brings maturity, confidence and a certain... again, adds to your sense of self. Tara Sutarias Work Front On the work front, Tara Sutaria was most recently seen in Toxic: A Fairy Tale for Grown-Ups, which released theatrically on August 26, 2026. Directed by Geetu Mohandas and led by Yash, the pan-India action film features Tara as Rebecca Almeida, a character with a vintage-inspired look and a romantic arc opposite Yash in the first half of the film. The Kannada-English bilingual also stars Nayanthara, Kiara Advani, Huma Qureshi and Rukmini Vasanth. The film was released in multiple languages, including dubbed versions.

Death toll climbs to five in house collapse in UP's Fatehpur

Digital Desk | Fatehpur, Sep 29 (IANS) The death toll in the two-storey house collapse in Uttar Pradesh's Fatehpur district has increased to five, officials confirmed on Tuesday. The house collapsed following a powerful explosion at the residence of a fruit trader in the Malwan police station area of the Fatehpur district on Monday evening, killing four people and injuring three others. One of the injured, who was in critical condition and was placed on a ventilator after suffering burns over more than 90 per cent of his body, succumbed to his injuries. The deceased were identified as Kunal, Alok, Arpit, Ved and Yash, aged between 6 and 25 years. According to the police, information about the incident was received through PRV at around 5:30 p.m. on Monday, following which local police rushed to the spot. However, the narrow lane leading to the house prevented a fire brigade vehicle from reaching the site. A rescue operation was subsequently launched with the help of a JCB to clear the debris. Around 16 personnel from the police and fire department, assisted by local residents, searched the rubble for survivors. Seven people were eventually pulled out from the debris and taken to the Medical College in Fatehpur, where doctors declared four of them dead. Fatehpur Superintendent of Police (SP) Abhimanyu Manglik said seven people had been rescued from the collapsed structure, of whom four had died. The Fatehpur SP said preliminary questioning of people present at the spot suggested that the explosion may have been caused by a gas cylinder. Four gas cylinders were found at the site, with two reportedly having exploded. However, the exact cause of the blast has not yet been established. Forensic and Fire Department teams are examining the site to ascertain the circumstances that led to the explosion. The blast caused the upper two floors of the main house to collapse. Beams of some neighbouring houses were also damaged, although no casualties were reported there. Police and administrative teams remain at the site, while an investigation is underway to determine why and under what circumstances the explosion occurred.

FTC chief vows to 'restore justice' as court clears way for Coupang probe

Digital Desk | Seoul, Sep 29 (IANS) The chief of South Korea's antitrust watchdog said on Tuesday he will work to estore justice after a local court recently cleared the way for the agency to resume its stalled probe into U.S.-listed e-commerce giant Coupang. Ju Biung-ghi, head of the Fair Trade Commission (FTC), made the remarks during an interview with local radio broadcaster CBS, signalling the agency's intention to resume its investigation, reports Yonhap news agency. Last month, Coupang refused to cooperate with the watchdog's on-site probe into allegations the company had shifted the costs of discounts onto its suppliers and asked a court to suspend the inspection. The court initially granted a temporary suspension of the FTC's on-site inspection but eventually rejected Coupang's request to halt the probe last week. (Coupang) deals with various vendors, and the company could be subject to regulatory action if it has imposed unfavourable terms on them, Ju said. It is a relief the judge handling the case ruled in favour of the public interest, including the rights of the economically vulnerable and hundreds of thousands of small merchants, he added. We will continue to make efforts to restore justice undermined by the stalled probe into Coupang. At a press conference this month, Ju described the court's disruption of the FTC's investigation as egrettable. Meanwhile, Coupang swung to a net loss in the second quarter from a year earlier due to fines related to a massive data breach. In the three months that ended in June, the U.S.-listed company shifted to a net loss of 865 billion won (US$570 million) from a net profit of 43.5 billion won in the same period last year, it said in a press release. Coupang, which generates most of its revenue from its Korean operations, has faced strong public backlash following the disclosure of a data breach in November 2025 involving more than 37 million customers.
