1. Kaabil Trailer Teases Us With Hrithik Roshan’s Voice

Hrithik Roshan will be seen next in Sanjay Gupta’s Kaabil, but sadly, the film’s teaser has no sign of him. Though we can hear him, all we can see are blurry lights.

Hrithik points out to the darkness of life with his dialogue, “Aapki aankhein toh khuli rahengi sir, par aap kuchh dekh nahin payenge. Aapke kaan khule rahenge par, aap kuchh sun nahin payenge. Aapka muh khula rahega sir, par aap kuchh bol nahin payenge. Aur sabse badi baat sir, aap sab kuchh samajh jaoge, par aage kisi ko samjha nahin payenge.” (You have sight, but how much do you really see? You can listen but how much do you really hear? You can touch but how much do you really feel?)

The Sanjay Gupta film will hit theatres on 26 January, but the trailer will be out on 26 October. The film also stars Yami Gautam. The teaser definitely leaves us wanting more and the film’s tagline ‘The Mind Sees All’ is a curious one too.

2. Kabir Khan’s Response To ‘Fight With Salman’ Rumours Is So Clever

Kabir Khan responded to rumours about him having a fight with Salman Khan on the sets of Tubelight, with a hilariously sarcastic tweet. He even suggested that reporters use this image of the duo in future, since it will work better to support any more rumours about alleged face-offs.

Though he didn’t confirm or deny the rumour of their alleged tiff over Salman being late on set, but his tweet has made us all grin. Now that’s how a good sense of humour can tackle tricky situations and put them to rest.

3. Wifey Kajol Comes to Ajay’s Rescue

The clash between Shivaay and Ae Dil Hai Mushkil is old news but many are still fueling the fire, Ajay Devgn being one himself. The cast of Ae Dil Hai Mushkil just had a riot with Kapil Sharma on his show.

We now hear that Devgn will also be seen promoting Shivaay on The Kapil Sharma Show with debutantes, Erika Kaar and Sayyesha Saigal. But, according to reports, he is also planning to get wife, Kajol on the show.

Viewers have not seen Kajol and Ajay on the show together in many years and the couple is leaving no stone unturned to promote the film. It looks like we’re going to see a lot of fireworks before Diwali this year.

Pan Bahar, the famous Indian pan masala brand, created quite a ruckus recently after visuals of its latest advertisement went viral. The commercial aired earlier in the month starred British actor, Pierce Brosnan in his James Bond avatar.

The commercial took the internet by storm and memes sprung up trolling the commercial, and Brosnan, for endorsing the brand.

However, Brosnan has finally chosen to speak on the matter, and it doesn’t look good for Pan Bahar.

Speaking to PEOPLE, the Brit actor revealed that he is “deeply shocked and saddened” about the “deceptive use” of his image by the brand. He further clarified that he was apologetic for his endorsement of the product, consumption of which may cause health issues such as cancer.

As a man who has spent decades championing women’s healthcare and environmental protection, I was distressed to learn of Pan Bahar’s unauthorised and deceptive use of my image to endorse their range of pan masala products. I shall endeavour to rectify this matter... In the meantime, please accept my sincerest and heartfelt apologies to all whom I have offended. 

Statement By Pierce Brosnan 

In his statement, Brosnan has demanded an apology from Pan Bahar and has asked them to remove his images from their products as he had never accepted to endorse a product that would negatively impact people’s life.

Bombay High Court has finally approved the will of filmstar, Parveen Babi who died almost 12 years ago in her Juhu apartment. The move can now help divert her assets towards philanthropic causes.

According to a report in the Hindustan Times, Justice Gautam Patel probated Babi’s will on 14 October 2016 after her paternal relatives, who questioned it’s legitimacy, decided to drop the claim about the documents being fake.

The report states that “Justice Patel directed the HC registry to grant letters allowing the administration of the will to Babi’s uncle Muradkhan M Babi by December 23 this year”.

Babi’s uncle produced a copy of the will soon after the actress was found in her apartment in 2005. The will stated that Muradkhan has been made in charge of her assets, which includes her Juhu home, the house she owned in Junagadh, her jewellery and bank deposits.

According to Babi’s will, a trust fund is to be formed, allocating 70 per cent of her assets towards helping women and children, and 10 per cent to her alma mater, St. Xavier’s college in Ahmedabad. 20 per cent has been entrusted to her uncle, Muradkhan.
