Imtiaz Ali’s films taught me that getting what you want won’t save you | Opinion-entertainment News

Have you ever wept after months of feeling the tears gather at the edges of your being? Have you ever wept until you thought there was nothing left, only to find yourself yearning for more tears, as though they were the very thing your soul had been starved of all along? Have you ever found yourself gasping between sobs after spending so long breathing through life on sheer endurance alone? Have you ever comforted yourself because there was no one else around to do it for you? Have you ever tried to lift your own spirits while knowing that, after all, you were all you had? On an otherwise random summer Monday afternoon, I found myself doing exactly all this. The tears arrived after seasons of anticipation, after many afternoons spent sensing their approach, postponing their arrival, pretending they belonged to another day. And when they finally came, they came all at once. What came to mind almost instantly was Harry (Shah Rukh Khan) from Imtiaz Ali’s Jab Harry Met Sejal. There is a moment …

Kiara Advani says husband Sidharth Malhotra taught her to run house: ‘Being a mom is new’ | Bollywood News

From walking the Met Gala steps while seven months pregnant to navigating sleepless nights and postpartum emotions, Kiara Advani says motherhood has transformed her life in ways she never expected. Opening up about the journey, the actor revealed that while everyone talks about the joy of having a baby, very few prepare women for the chaos and guilt that can follow. In a conversation with Bombay Times, Kiara opened up about the realities of motherhood, saying one aspect of the journey that is rarely discussed enough is the emotional upheaval that follows childbirth. The actor, who is now seven-and-a-half months postpartum, said every woman’s experience is different, but many of the challenges new mothers face often go unspoken. ‘No one prepares you for the chaos’ Kiara admitted that while marriage brought significant changes to her life, motherhood has been an entirely different experience. “I lived with my parents until I got married, so life changed overnight. Running a home was a completely new responsibility for me. There was no longer a ‘Mumma, please make this.’ …

Dhurandhar actor R Madhavan says he taught son Vedaant about contraception before teenage: ‘Honesty is cheaper’

Dhurandhar actor R Madhavan says he taught son Vedaant about contraception before teenage: ‘Honesty is cheaper’

There is a particular kind of parent who decides, early on, that the most dangerous thing they can do for their child is keep them comfortable and uninformed. R. Madhavan is that kind of parent. He spoke to his son Vedaant about sexual touch before most parents would have thought to and he explained contraception. He laid out the realities of celebrity life, the good parts and the parts that quietly do damage, before Vedaant was old enough to stumble onto them on his own. In a recent conversation with Kumudam, Madhavan opened up about how he raised Vedaant, now in his early twenties, and the picture that formed was of a father who decided long ago that honesty was cheaper than the alternative. “I have treated him as an adult since a very young age,” he said. That was not just a philosophy, Madhavan explained, it had a practical edge. He talked to Vedaant about sexual touch, about boundaries, about contraception, not when he was a teenager but well before that, at a point …

Priyadarshan says he ‘never taught Aditya Dhar anything’; lauds Dhurandhar director, Sandeep Reddy Vanga for defying theories of hit films | Bollywood News

4 min readKochiMar 27, 2026 09:24 AM IST It’s just been nine days since director Aditya Dhar’s Ranveer Singh-starrer Dhurandhar: The Revenge hit the screens, and the spy actioner is already eyeing the lifetime collection that its predecessor, Dhurandhar (Rs 1,307.35 crore), amassed over a span of 100 days. In a major achievement, Dhurandhar 2 recently zoomed past the Rs 1,000 crore mark worldwide in just seven days, joining Sukumar’s Allu Arjun-led Pushpa 2: The Rule (2024) as the fastest Indian film ever to reach this milestone.

The Cookbook That Taught Mauritians Indian Food Actually Comes from South Africa

The Cookbook That Taught Mauritians Indian Food Actually Comes from South Africa

What does a cookbook that has been passed down generations in Mauritian Indian homes share in common with South Africa’s anti-apartheid movement? Ameerah Arjanee’s research into the seminal Indian Delights cookbook brings forth the story of how editor, Zuleikha Mayat, baked politics and Indian-African cultural hybridity into her book. Indian Delights. During my childhood in Mauritius in the early 2000s, this book was the essential kitchen companion in every Indo-Mauritian Muslim household. It was edited by Zuleikha Mayat and published by the Women’s Cultural Group in 1961. My nani owned two copies — one edition published in the 1970s, the other in the 1990s — both dog-eared from years of use and filled with handwritten notes in French and Creole. Every ‘respectable housewife’ in my community had a copy. It took me some time to realise that Indian Delights wasn’t actually from India, but from South Africa. In a sense, the food that my grandmother and her friends learned to cook was twice-diasporic cuisine: made in Mauritius, with Mauritian ingredients, and based on a South …

I am working hard at the Centre of Excellence and I think I’m going to be out (on the field) soon,” Pant said. “When I am injured, one thing that always keeps me close to the game is the love for the game and the support from the people around you.
