Orry said, “I don’t like him, and I don’t like him because he used me as a thumbnail on his video, so I got tricked into watching his video, and I was there for two seconds.

3 min readHyderabadApr 24, 2026 07:32 PM IST It started with one word in the middle of a long conversation. Actor-producer Jackky Bhagnani and his wife, actress Rakul Preet Singh, appeared together on the YouTube channel zingabad for what was, by all accounts, a candid and wide-ranging conversation about their relationship, their individual personalities, and why they decided to get married. At one point during the discussion, Jackky reached for an unconventional term to describe the ease and openness he feels in the marriage. “Rakul and I are married, but we are like in a situationship, which is, of course, we are exclusive to each other because that’s why we are married. But the most important thing is that I can talk to her about anything,” he said. The broader point Jackky Bhagnani was making was about independence and emotional maturity within the relationship. “We told each other that we are not 20-21 years old anymore. We have both seen many ups and downs. Individually, I am a happy person. I am not looking for …

Known for his outspoken nature, the filmmaker responded with humour after being named alongside prominent personalities like Bill Gates and Stephen Hawking and said that it is easy for people to use his name for clickbait because many are quick to believe anything written about him. In an interview with Mid-Day, Anurag said, “We were recently talking about Mr Ambani and Mr Modi’s names appearing in the Epstein files. That file also mentions my name. It is there in a random email. We often receive invites from places like Harvard and Yale. I have no idea about this because I have never even been to Beijing. I had gone to Shanghai in 2014 for a recce for the film Bombay Velvet. I was like, ‘Kya baat hai, kya company hai meri.’” He added, “Recently someone questioned me about the Epstein files and I said, ‘The thing is, my name is clickbait and …

Google is experimentally replacing news headlines with AI clickbait nonsense

Google is experimentally replacing news headlines with AI clickbait nonsense

Published by Webster

Did you know that BG3 players exploit children? Are you aware that Qi2 slows older Pixels? If we wrote those misleading headlines, readers would rip us a new one — but Google is experimentally beginning to replace the original headlines on stories it serves with AI nonsense like that. Come on. I read a lot of my bedtime news via Google Discover, aka “swipe right on your Samsung Galaxy or Google Pixel homescreen until you see a news feed appear,” and that’s where these new AI headlines are beginning to show up. They’re not all bad. For example, “Origami model wins prize” and “Hyundai, Kia gain share” seem fine, even if not remotely as interesting as the original headlines. (“Hyundai and Kia are lapping the competition as US market share reaches a new record” and “14-year-old wins prize for origami that can hold 10,000 times its own weight” sound like they’re actually worth a click!) But in the seeming attempt to boil down every story to four words or less, Google’s new headline experiment is …

North vs South cinema debate great for clickbait, but there’s no reality to it: Huma Qureshi

Published by Parlour News

New Delhi, Dismissing the ongoing North versus South cinema debate, actor Huma Qureshi says rather than engaging in these “petty” divisions, the Indian film industry should unite to create its own versions of hit global franchises like “Avatar”, “Squid Game” and “Money Heist”. North vs South cinema debate great for clickbait, but there’s no reality to it: Huma Qureshi According to Qureshi, there is one film industry in India and anyone who has an understanding of creativity or market economics would recognise that it’s advantageous for every artist across the country. “It is such a silly debate; we are one country. A ‘Drishyam’ is loved across the entire country. We need to find storytellers from all over the nation. Today with the way the world is growing, our focus should be on what local, specific Indian stories we want to take globally. Like, where is the ‘Squid Game’ from India? Where is our ‘Money Heist’? Why can’t we make our version of ‘Avatar’? “These are the questions that should be asked. The whole industry should …
