His Mind Is Constantly Running, Says GTs Shahrukh On Gills Evolution As Captain

New Delhi: Gujarat Titans batter Shahrukh Khan has praised Shubman Gills evolution as a leader, describing the India Test and ODI captain as a highly tactical cricketer whose mind is always working on the game. Shahrukh has been in the Gujarat Titans dressing room with Gill and has witnessed the young batter develop from an emerging IPL leader into Indias captain. He noted that Gills leadership qualities are not always obvious externally but become more clear to teammates who train with him daily. Obviously, as a captain, he has grown immensely from captaining Gujarat Titans to captaining the countrys Test side. I dont have to explain how good a captain he is. Because we saw the series in England, the way he captained, how aggressive he was whenever the team needed him to be. And looking at his journey as a captain, its been wonderful to share the dressing room alongside him, where he understands players very well, Shahrukh said in an exclusive conversation with IANS. Gills rise is noteworthy considering the responsibility he has assumed at a young age. Shahrukh considers his tactical awareness to be one of the key strengths of his captaincy. He is somebody who is very tactical. Doesnt look like much when you see from the outside. But as teammates, when you see him every day at practise and in the game, his mind is constantly running on what to do, he said. He has got so many options in his head which he more often than not chooses the right thing. And to be playing under him is a pleasure. Shahrukhs remarks follow a challenging IPL 2026 season for him. Though retained by Gujarat Titans for Rs 4 crore, he failed to make a significant impact and was dropped from the playing XI halfway through the season. For Shahrukh, the difference between his IPL challenges and his success in TNPL, where he steered his team to victory with crucial performances, highlights the unpredictable nature of T20 cricket. IPL is always the best league in the world. And to be a part of it and to be playing for the last 6-7 years, I feel very fortunate and lucky. Because the level in which the players are in terms of mindset is the ultimate level for any youngster to play. And from there, obviously, you want to play for the country. But yeah, Ive had tremendous years and some bad years as well, he said. For Shahrukh, the difference between his IPL challenges and his success in TNPL, where he steered his team to victory with crucial performances, highlights the unpredictable nature of T20 cricket. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories Although Shahrukh has primarily concentrated on domestic cricket, his ongoing connection with Gill and Gujarat Titans remains a significant aspect of his IPL experience. As the upcoming IPL season approaches, the Tamil Nadu player aims to build on his TNPL recovery to deliver a more successful performance at Indias top T20 level. Article Source: IANS

'I Really Wish To Meet Salman Khan More Than SRK: Cricketer Shahrukh Khan

Tamil Nadu Premier League: Tamil Nadu cricketer Shahrukh Khan has spent much of his career carrying a name instantly recognisable across India, but despite the obvious connection to Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan, the Tamil Nadu batter has a different celebrity at the top of his wish list. Shahrukh, who recently led Kovai Kings to their third Tamil Nadu Premier League (TNPL) title, said he has not yet met the Bollywood superstar he was named after. If he could choose, the Tamil Nadu player would rather meet Salman Khan than his famous namesake. I really wish to meet Salman Khan more than Shah Rukh, the cricketer said in an exclusive conversation with IANS. The 29-year-old has had multiple chances to meet his famous namesake during his IPL career, especially in matches against Kolkata Knight Riders. However, these opportunities never came to fruition since Shah Rukh Khan was absent from the games. I havent (met him) as yet. I havent met Shahrukh Khan as yet. But yeah, hope to meet him soon. We played quite a few matches against KKR. But I actually missed the opportunity to meet Shahrukh Khan. He obviously did not come for the game. If he would have come, obviously, I would have met him. But you know, I really wish to meet Salman Khan more than Shahrukh, he said. The meeting with Shah Rukh Khan might be especially intriguing for the cricketer. Since he was born after the Bollywood star, Shahrukh is aware that he was named after the actor and is eager to see how the superstar responds when they finally meet. No, I will wait for his reaction first. Because I was born after him. So, I was named after him. So, I hope, I have heard that he has got an uncanny sense of humour. Obviously, I am good friends with Varun Chakravarthy. And he said that he is a really wonderful person at heart .And waiting to see what sort of an uncanny sense of humour he has. And yeah, really excited to meet him, he said. While his name has often been a talking point, Shahrukh has carved out his own identity in Tamil Nadu cricket over the past several years. He has been part of the states cricket circuit for about two decades and has emerged as one of Tamil Nadus leading white-ball players. His journey has taken him to the IPL, where he has played for multiple franchises and, most recently, represented Gujarat Titans. The most recent achievement was in the TNPL, where he guided Kovai Kings to their third championship. The team beat Madurai Panthers by 84 runs in the final, making them only the second team in the tournament's history to secure three titles. Shahrukh sees the TNPLs significance extending beyond his personal achievements. He considers the tournament a crucial stepping stone for young cricketers in Tamil Nadu, having already facilitated several players' progress to the IPL and other higher tiers of domestic cricket. Yeah, TNPL has been a platform for a lot of players from Tamil Nadu including me, Natarajan, Varun Chakravarthy, a lot of players and the way the tournament has grown over the years is just immense. And not just TNPL but the other leagues that happen around India as well. But the first domestic tournament for a state T20 was TNPL and very fortunate to be a part of this tournament, he said. And every year, you see new talents coming up. I hope even this year, the IPL scouts see a few talents and picks so that the tournament grows even bigger next year, he added. Shahrukhs own TNPL campaign was particularly significant following a difficult IPL 2026 season with Gujarat Titans. And every year, you see new talents coming up. I hope even this year, the IPL scouts see a few talents and picks so that the tournament grows even bigger next year, he added. Also Read: Special Cricket Stories I was having a technical flaw in my batting. I had a technical flaw which was hampering my batting quite a lot from the last 7-8 months. I've really come back from IPL and worked on it. My front foot was going too far across which I never used to do that before. Yeah, I had a proper couple of months in between where I could focus on my technique and get as tight as possible in that, he said. Article Source: IANS

The launch also introduces a quarterly subscription option in the UK, giving viewers an alternative to the existing annual plan. From 2 September, UK pricing is 19.99 per quarter or 69.99 annually. Existing Hotstar users can download the JioHotstar app and sign in using their current Hotstar credentials, with their subscription automatically converted to the corresponding JioHotstar tier. UK subscribers who already have monthly plans can continue with them while automatic renewal remains active. The service also offers subtitles and dubbing across more than 12 Asian languages, including English, Hindi, Gujarati, Malayalam, Kannada and Marathi. JioStar says the platform's wider strategy is built around personalised recommendations, conversational voice discovery, real-time audience participation and in-app commerce. With Bigg Boss fans getting live voting and 24/7 access in the UK, JioHotstar is making a clear attempt to turn Indian streaming from something audiences simply watch into something they actively participate in.

EXCLUSIVE: From earning Rs. 300 for 1st assignment to voicing Michael Jacksons character in Hindi, voice artiste Ketan Kavva gets candid on the art of dubbing: You have to match actors emotion, timing, expressions and lip movements

When cinema lovers watch a movie in a language they dont understand, they rely on sub-titles. But there is a large section of the audience that relies on dubbed versions of films that are in an alien language for them. The task is carried out by dubbing artistes who are today more known as voice artistes or voice actors. Ketan Kavva is one such artiste who has been in the dubbing field for over 15 years. He has dubbed for various movies and shows. His noteworthy assignment this year involves voicing Jaafar Jacksons character in Michael in Hindi. In other words, he gave voice to the character of the legendary Michael Jackson in the film. Interestingly, he started his journey by dubbing one dialogue in the Shahid Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan starrer Chup Chup Ke, for which he earned Rs. 300. In an exclusive chat with Bollywood Hungama, Ketan Kavva opened up about his work and journey so far. What did you keep in mind or what kind of preparations did you do while giving the Hindi voice for the character of Michael Jackson in Michael? Voicing Michael was a very special responsibility for me because he is such an iconic personality. My first priority was to make sure that the Hindi voice felt authentic to the character and, at the same time, remained natural for the Indian audience. I paid a lot of attention to his mannerisms, his pauses, his emotional expressions and the way he delivered his lines. Since I was voicing Jaafar Jackson portraying Michael, I also had to make sure that my performance complemented his performance rather than becoming an imitation of Michael Jackson. After 15 years in dubbing, Ive learned that you cannot just translate the words - you have to understand the character and the emotion behind every line. That was my biggest focus while dubbing Michael. Did you also carry out any research on the real Michael Jackson? Yes, definitely. I went back to Michael Jacksons interviews, performances and videos to understand his personality, his mannerisms and especially the way he spoke. The film is a performance by an actor portraying Michael, so my job was to support that performance in Hindi. The research helped me understand the person behind the character, which ultimately helped me make my dubbing more convincing. How was the experience of carrying out the Gujarati dubbing for Tom Holland in Spider-Man? It has been a very special experience because Tom Hollands Spider-Man has been a character that Ive had the opportunity to voice in Gujarati, including Spider-Man: Homecoming and Spider-Man: Far From Home. Gujarati dubbing also comes with its own challenge because you want the language to sound completely natural while retaining the energy, humour and personality of the original performance. For me, it was particularly satisfying because Spider-Man is such a globally loved character, and being able to bring that character to Gujarati-speaking audiences in their own language is something Im very proud of. Apart from voicing human characters, Im also known for specialised voice work involving animal sounds, reactions and character voices. For instance, in Netflixs animated series Sharkdog, I have voiced Sharkdog in Hindi, including his barking sounds, reactions and expressions. In Superpupz, I have also dubbed the parrot character in Hindi. I have also dubbed for Luke in Kalki 2898 AD in Hindi. In gaming, I voiced the character Maxim in Free Fire, and my Hindi voice can be heard in-game itself. I have been the Hindi voice of Robin, the lead character in Teen Titans Go! on Cartoon Network for over 10+ years. Being associated with the character for such a long period has been one of the most memorable parts of my dubbing journey. What is the biggest challenge for a dubbing artiste? I think the biggest challenge is to make people forget that they are watching a dubbed performance. The audience should feel that the character is actually speaking in their language. For that, you have to match the actors emotion, timing, expressions and lip movements, while also making the dialogue sound natural. Sometimes you may have only a few seconds to deliver a line with exactly the right emotion and timing. So, dubbing is not just about having a good voice - it requires acting, observation, timing and a lot of discipline. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ketan Kavva (@ketankavva) Are there more opportunities for dubbing artistes because of the emergence of OTT? Absolutely. OTT has changed the dubbing industry tremendously. Today, audiences are consuming content from different countries and in different languages, so the demand for quality dubbing has increased significantly. Earlier, dubbing was often looked at as something secondary. Today, there is much more awareness about the importance of a good dubbed performance. With films, web series, animation, anime and even games being localised into multiple Indian languages, there are definitely more opportunities for voice artistes. At the same time, the competition has also increased, so artistes need to constantly improve their acting and language skills. You were paid Rs. 300 for your services as a dubbing artiste for Chup Chup Ke, which was your first proper assignment. Can you recall that experience? I remember it very clearly because Rs. 300 may sound like a very small amount today, but at that time it meant something completely different to me. It was my first proper professional dubbing assignment, and honestly, I was just extremely excited to be inside a studio and getting paid to do something I genuinely loved. I dont think I was thinking about how much I was earning. I was thinking, this is what I want to do. Looking back after 15 years, those Rs. 300 feel more valuable than many bigger cheques because it was the beginning of my professional journey. It gave me the confidence that I could actually build a career out of dubbing. You gained an interest in dubbing from your uncle (kaka). He has dubbed for popular shows like Ramayan and Mahabharat in Gujarati. Did you ever hear any interesting stories from him while he was dubbing for these two epic shows? Yes. My uncle was one of the inspirations behind me getting into dubbing. As a child, I used to hear about his work and that naturally created an interest in me. One thing that stayed with me was how different dubbing was in those days. There was no technology or convenience like we have today. The process was much more manual, and artistes had to be extremely precise with their dialogue and timing. Hearing about his experiences on shows like Ramayan and Mahabharat made me realise that voice acting could actually be a profession. In a way, I feel I inherited my interest in dubbing from him, and then over the years I developed my own style and identity as a voice artiste.

EXCLUSIVE: Gurdeep Mehndi BREAKS away from hook steps, four cars and girls formula with Chan Mahi; credits Vikram Bhatts Haunted for giving him confidence; makes a BIG Bollywood observation: Those who achieved greatness have moved AWAY from film music

Gurdeep Mehndi is slowly and steadily making his mark as a singer and composer, carving an identity of his own beyond that of his father, Daler Mehndi, and uncle, Mika Singh. In an exclusive interview with Bollywood Hungama, Gurdeep spoke about his latest single as a singer, Chan Mahi. He also features in the music video alongside Aditi Sharma, and its unique, cinematic visuals have been widely appreciated. What kind of reactions have you received for Chan Mahi? The ones who are close to me and are also my toughest critics have observed that it is nothing like my regular stuff. Its a very different genre. Normally, I go for commercial music or whatever is trending. But many people told me that this song is not run-of-the-mill and that they love it. Its a slow, sad, romantic number. Iske lyrics ek pukaar hain. Chan Mahi is about a person telling his or her lover that tu mat jaa. But the beat, music and overall atmosphere of the song are completely different. You can play this song in a club, in a car or even at a house party! The video is novel a woman who repeatedly encounters her beloved in familiar spaces, blurring the line between memory and reality. How did the concept get locked? This music video is quite cinematic. Normally, a regular, formulaic music video has hook steps, four cars and girls! But since the feel of this song is different, I told music director Manil Kandwal that the video should focus on a different kind of obsession with your lover. It is like, main tere saath bhi nahin reh sakta aur tere bagair bhi nahin reh sakta. Even if I try to stay away from you, my body doesnt allow me to. My eyes, my mind, my everything leads back to you the person I love. Hence, she sees her lover in every guy she bumps into. Manil did justice to this vision of mine. He said that he would get into a serious cinema mode and treat the music video as a depiction of the feelings of someone who loves another person so deeply that they become the only endpoint. Thats what we have tried to show. How do you balance singing and composing? Is it a challenge? So, last year, I worked on a song called Sajri. I sang it, composed it and also wrote the lyrics. However, I regularly do live shows and I am also trying to do many other things. Composing is a serious process, and you need to invest a lot of time in thinking and creating a composition. Id prefer to come across as a sorted singer rather than randomly put stuff out on Instagram and YouTube. I feel that my song should make sense and impress you even if you listen to it four or five years later. Thats the hallmark of an evergreen song. Even today, we get evergreen songs like Jo Bheji Thi Duaa from Shanghai (2012), sung by Arijit Singh. Hence, instead of uploading random stuff, Id rather take my time and release songs carefully. Sadly, I am not able to devote that kind of time to composing. Hence, I source talent from outside. Thats great too, as it gives opportunities to emerging and promising artists. You recently sang a song in Haunted Echoes Of The Past, Lauta Do, and it was also a surprise Id like to thank Saregama for it. Sometimes, you need someone to make people look beyond stereotypes. Ive mostly been singing high-tempo songs that are very much rooted in pop culture. That is poles apart from the lehza and romance associated with Vikram Bhatt sahabs films. So, for them to consider Gurdeep Mehndi for a song like this was difficult. They probably couldnt even imagine me singing something in this space. I had to give an audition. I was at my home studio and sang a few lines. Thats when they realized the potential. Saregama played a big part in convincing them to try me and insisting that I am not a typical Punjabi singer. In fact, it was the Haunted song that inspired me to do Chan Mahi. I felt that if I could pull off Lauta Do, then I could pull off Chan Mahi as well. Id also like to thank Prateek Walia, who is the music composer of Haunted. When he approached me to sing the song, I decided to give it a try because I had never sung anything of this sort before. Is the Bollywood film industry warming up to you? Theres an interesting scenario when it comes to Bollywood and independent music. Those who achieved great success in Bollywood have now moved away from film music and are making waves in the independent space. For instance, Salim-Sulaiman have largely moved away from Bollywood music. On the other hand, many emerging talents feel that they cant afford to do independent songs and therefore dream of singing for Bollywood. A film song automatically gives them access to a wider audience, and sometimes crores are spent on promotions as well. But ironically, many of the champions of Bollywood music have moved away from that turf. Meanwhile, those working in the independent space are dreaming, If I get to sing in a Shah Rukh Khan film, Ill get so much visibility. To answer your question, I really want people to notice me and understand that I can sing not just Punjabi songs but different genres as well. Those who are in close contact with me are experimenting with my voice. Also, during Navratri, Ill be performing in Surat. I sing Gujarati songs too. Around 80% of my clients are Gujarati or Marwari, and I can easily perform Gujarati songs for 30-40 minutes.

Bihar, Jharkhand sign Sone water-sharing agreement in presence of Home Minister Amit Shah

New Delhi, Aug 31: In the presence of Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation Amit Shah, an MoU was signed between Bihar and Jharkhand on the sharing of Sone River water. Chief Minister of Jharkhand Hemant Soren, Chief Minister of Bihar Samrat Choudhary, Union Minister for Jal Shakti C.R. Patil, the Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar, the Union Home Secretary, and senior officials from the Government of India and both states were present on this occasion. Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation Amit Shah said that todays agreement between Bihar and Jharkhand has resolved a long-awaited water dispute in eastern India. He said that this agreement will provide irrigation water to lakhs of farmers in large rural areas of Bihar and Jharkhand, along with drinking water for the people. Amit Shah stated that the agreement reached today regarding the sharing of the Sone River's waters is an excellent example of the 'Team Bharat' vision and cooperative federalism championed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He said that while all states possess their own distinct identities, if they move forward as 'Team Bharat' within the national context, there is no problem which cannot be resolved. Shri Shah added that this marks the fourth water agreement between states this year, which will enhance water availability for irrigation, rural development, and drinking purposes. Union Home Minister said that the agreement reached today to resolve the nearly 25-year-old water dispute between Bihar and Jharkhand exemplifies that any problem can be solved through dialogue conducted with the spirit of cooperative federalism. He said that issues concerning vast geographical areas, farmers, rural regions, and drinking water supplies in both states have been permanently resolved today. Amit Shah said that today's agreement would ensure the availability of adequate water for drinking and irrigation to a large population across the districts of Bhojpur, Buxar, Rohtas, Kaimur, Aurangabad, Arwal, Gaya, and Patna in Bihar. Moreover, water would become available for irrigation and drinking purposes in the Palamu, Garhwa, and other regions of Jharkhand. Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren and Bihar Chief Minister Samrat Chaudhary expressed their gratitude to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah for resolving the issue of Sone River water sharing. On the initiative of Home Minister Amit Shah, long-pending water disputes between various states that had been unresolved for several decades are being resolved through the Inter-State Council, so far this year, four historic agreements have been reached. On July 7, 2026, a historic agreement regarding the settlement of outstanding payments was signed among the 'Narmada Award' beneficiary states Maharashtra, Gujarat, Rajasthan, and Madhya Pradesh in the presence of the Union Home Minister. This agreement marks a milestone in resolving long-standing disputes among these states concerning cost-sharing for the construction of the Sardar Sarovar Project, with the outstanding dues being resolved through a one-time settlement. On June 29, 2026, a significant agreement was signed between the governments of Rajasthan and Haryana regarding the construction and implementation of the Yamuna Water Project. Under this agreement, approximately 580 MCM of water will be conveyed from the Yamuna Canal to Rajasthan via three underground pipelines. The project aims to deliver Rajasthan's share of Yamuna water from the Western Yamuna Canal through these underground pipelines. This will enable Rajasthan to effectively utilize the water allocated to it under the 1994 agreement regarding the sharing of usable surface water in the Upper Yamuna Basin. The project will ensure a continuous supply of drinking water to the arid and low-rainfall regions of Rajasthan and foster socio-economic development, thereby benefiting millions of people. On June 16, 2026, a consensus was reached among the concerned states regarding the long-pending Kishau Multipurpose Dam Project during a crucial meeting held in New Delhi under the chairmanship of Union Home Minister Shri Amit Shah. During the meeting, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, and Rajasthan agreed to a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for the implementation of the Kishau Multipurpose Project. Regarding the project, the Central Government will provide 90% of the funding for the water component as central assistance, while the six states will bear the financial burden of the remaining 10%. An agreement was reached to allocate the water assigned to Himachal Pradesh to Delhi and Rajasthan in exchange for sharing the cost of the project's power component.

Gujarat extends ban on sale of gutkha, paan masala till September 2027

The Gujarat government on Monday said it has extended the state-wide ban on the manufacture, storage, distribution, and sale of gutkha and paan masala containing tobacco or nicotine for another year starting September 13. According to a notification by the Commissioner of Food Safety, the prohibition - in force since 2012 - will remain in place till September 12, 2027, to protect public health. The prohibition will apply irrespective of the name under which such gutkha or paan masala is sold, and cover ingredients sold separately if they are intended to be mixed to prepare gutkha or paan masala as the final product.
