Shweta Tripathi is taking her first feature film as a producer, Mujhe Jaan Na Kaho Meri Jaan, to international film platforms, marking a new phase in her career beyond acting. After its journey to the Berlin International Film Festival earlier this year, the project was presented at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) 2026, where Tripathi explored opportunities for international collaborations and the films future reach. For Tripathi, the international festival circuit has offered an opportunity to represent the project from a producers perspective and engage with industry professionals around potential partnerships, financing and distribution. The film is yet to begin shooting in India, and its participation in these platforms marks an early step in building a network around the project. Theres something very special about taking a film you believe into an international platform, especially when its your first feature as a producer. The journey from Berlin to Toronto has been incredibly meaningful for me because it has allowed me to represent Mujhe Jaan Na Kaho Meri Jaan in a completely different capacity. You begin to see the film beyond the process of making it and think about the people it could reach, the conversations it could start and the possibilities that lie ahead. Its been a wonderful learning experience, and Im excited about what this journey can mean for the film. Directed by National Award-winning filmmaker Sanjoy Nag, Mujhe Jaan Na Kaho Meri Jaan stars Tillotama Shome and Shweta Tripathi. The film is a queer love story that explores love and human relationships. Tripathis involvement as a producer also reflects her interest in backing narratives she believes can connect with audiences beyond India. Her experience in production began in theatre. In 2010, she launched AllMyTea, her theatre production company, with Cock, a queer drama written by Olivier Award-winning British playwright Mike Bartlett. The production was staged again during Pride Month this year, marking her return to theatre and her continued engagement with stories centred on queer relationships. Tripathi said the move into film production has changed how she approaches storytelling, extending her involvement beyond the making of a project to include its journey towards audiences. Producing has made me look at storytelling differently. As an actor, you are deeply involved in bringing a character and a story to life. As a producer, you also have to think about the journey the film takes once its made, the people who might come on board, and how you can create opportunities for it to reach its audience. International film festivals and markets bring together people who can help make those possibilities real. Being able to represent my debut production on these platforms has been a significant step for me. Her participation at TIFF 2026 was supported by her selection for the WIF India x Gold House Scholarship, which enabled her to present Mujhe Jaan Na Kaho Meri Jaan at the Gold House Pitch. The platform brought the project before international producers, financiers, executives and other industry professionals, opening up conversations around potential partnerships and possible routes forward. While the films participation in international festivals and markets provides opportunities to build industry connections, its eventual distribution plans and reach remain to be established. Tripathis journey from Berlin to Toronto marks an early stage in that process, as she continues to balance acting with her expanding work as a producer.

Smita Jayakar, who played Aishwarya Rai Bachchans onscreen mother in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, has recalled the blossoming romance between Aishwarya and Salman Khan during the filming of Sanjay Leela Bhansalis 1999 romantic drama. In a conversation with Siddharth Kannan, the actress spoke about the couples equation on set, their late arrivals and an instance when Salman reportedly deviated from the script while filming a song sequence. Recalling the period when their relationship was developing, Smita said the couples affection for each other was visible. She also credited their chemistry with adding to the films appeal on screen. It was blossoming then. They were both in love, and they looked angelic. Aishwarya looked divine at that time. Somehow, it worked for the film. That magic came through on screen, said the actress. The actress also spoke about how their relationship sometimes affected the films shooting schedule. According to Smita, members of the crew would express frustration when the actors arrived late despite early call times. She recalled that the couple would often arrive together, seemingly absorbed in each other and unaware of the inconvenience caused to the waiting crew. The rest of the crew would complain, saying, These people arrive so late. We have a 7 am shift, and we have been waiting here until 10 am. They still havent arrived! But I always felt that when youre in love, what can you say? She further elaborated on their arrivals, saying, They would both arrive at 11 am, together, oblivious to everything around them and to the fact that the entire set was waiting for them. But thats what happens when youre in love. Smita also recalled an incident involving Salman and Bhansali during the filming of the song 'Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan'. According to her account, Salman was supposed to walk around a table and look at Aishwarya, but he touched her arm, which was not part of the planned action. The moment reportedly prompted the filmmaker to question the actor. Salman had to come and walk all the way around the table, while Aishwarya was standing there. He touched her arm, which he wasnt supposed to do. Sanjay asked him, Salman, why did you touch her? Explaining Salmans action, Smita said, He just felt like touching her. He was in love, so he touched her, but that wasnt how the scene was supposed to be done. Sanjay shouted at him and asked why he had done that. Salman was only supposed to stand there and look at her in the scene. The actress went on to add that the incident left the crew laughing and Aishwarya blushing. Released in 1999, Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam featured Salman Khan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Ajay Devgn in lead roles. Directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali, the romantic drama followed a young woman caught between her feelings for a former lover and her marriage. The film remains notable for its music, elaborate visual treatment and performances. Also Read: Bhansali on his 1999 classic Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam at Rome Festival; says, It saved my career

ED arrests Sawan Jewellers partner in Rs 645 crore IDFC First Bank scam, gets 4-day custody
Digital Desk | Chandigarh, Oct 23 (IANS) The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has arrested Rajan Singh Katodiah, partner of Chandigarh-based M/s Sawan Jewellers, in connection with the alleged Rs 645-crore IDFC First Bank scam involving the embezzlement of government funds from various departments of the Haryana government and the Chandigarh Administration, an agency statement said on Friday. Katodiah was arrested by the ED's Chandigarh Zonal Office-II on Thursday and produced before the Special Court under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA), which granted the agency four days' custody for further interrogation. According to the ED, Katodiah was the active managing partner and sole operational in-charge of M/s Sawan Jewellers, located in Sector 35-C, Chandigarh. The agency alleged that he entered into a criminal conspiracy with the prime accused, Ribhav Rishi, and others to misappropriate public funds. Investigations revealed that between November 6, 2024, and February 18, 2026, bank accounts linked to M/s Sawan Jewellers received approximately Rs 332 crore from several shell and intermediary entities allegedly controlled by Rishi. These entities included Capco Fintech Services, Swastik Desh Projects, RS Traders, Chandigarh Mega Store, SRR Planning Gurus Pvt Ltd, Vistamed Solutions, Maa Vaibhav Laxmi Interior, and Divya Arora, wife of Ribhav Rishi. The ED alleged that Katodiah, through Sawan Jewellers, facilitated the placement and concealment of proceeds of crime generated through the fraud. The agency claims the funds were subsequently layered through business transactions and integrated into the firm's day-to-day operations to project them as legitimate assets. The investigation further indicated a sharp increase in the jeweller's bullion purchases after its association with Rishi, which, according to the ED, points to a prior understanding between the accused persons for laundering the illicit proceeds. The agency said it had earlier arrested four other accused in the case for their alleged involvement in money laundering activities. Assets worth about Rs 225 crore, including movable and immovable properties, have also been attached, seized, or frozen as part of the investigation. The ED has already filed a charge sheet against 14 accused persons before the Special PMLA Court in Panchkula. Further investigation is underway.
