Baby Do Die Do Actor Huma Qureshi’s maiden production sees her in a gritty and entertaining role in the suspense thriller film Baby Do Die Do.

She had shared the excitement of co-producing her first film with brother Saqib Saleem as she said, “It’s really amazing that we are getting the opportunity to be first generation producers.

Messi’s hat-trick, Times Square and a watch party that started on the street

Messi’s hat-trick, Times Square and a watch party that started on the street

5 min readUpdated: Jun 17, 2026 08:54 PM IST On the boulevard near 42nd Street in Times Square, a group of Colombians, the flag of their nation wrapped around their bodies, was watching the Argentina-Algeria game on a smartphone. They had come assuming there was a free watch party. There was none. Fashion advertisements flickered on the monstrous billboards; most sports bars and pubs were filled. So they made their own watch party — on the streets, with their phones. A swarm of Argentines joined them, miniature World Cup trophies in hand, cutting through their differences and unified by one five-foot-seven silhouette. “We have our differences, politically and ideologically, we might be rivals on a football field, we have local footballing favourites, and we argue we are the best. But we all agree that Messi is the best player in the world,” says Fernando Arcucci, a member of the Albiceleste NYC. The impromptu party was a riot of emotions, their mood dictated by Messi’s. Just five minutes in, they erupted. Messi had found the net. …

US warned tanker nearly 60 times before strike killed 3 Indian sailors off Oman coast: Report | World News

The Palau-flagged vessel disabled by the US military in the Gulf of Oman dismissed nearly 60 verbal warnings and other shows of force before its engine room was fired upon, killing three Indian sailors, a report on Sunday stated. According to an AP report citing a US official, the tanker M/T Settebello’s crew ignored at least eight shows of force by US military aircraft, which included fired flares and flyovers. Final directives and blockade violations Two additional final warnings were also issued to the vessel that had 24 Indian crew members, before the American forces fired at the ship that was travelling off the Oman coast on Wednesday. The US Central Command had said that the oil tanker tried to “violate” the blockade put up by America outside the Strait of Hormuz. Casualties from precision fire An American aircraft fired “precision munitions” at the engine room of the Palau-flagged M/T Settebello vessel, the US military said earlier in the week, and the incident in the Gulf of Oman led to the killing of three Indian …

Mollywood Times movie review: Naslen’s ‘hate letter to cinema’ is a misfired masterpiece | Movie-review News

Mollywood Times Movie Review & Rating: Trust me here; Mollywood Times indeed had the potential to be a masterpiece. There are several moments in the movie where director Abhinav Sunder Nayak and writer Ramu Sunil’s sheer brilliance knock our socks off. The movie’s core ideas, as well as the way they are presented at various junctures, are nothing short of spellbinding. However, just as Vineeth Madhavan’s (Naslen) obsession with becoming “the best” filmmaker in his field leads to his downfall, Mollywood Times’ obstinacy in being a one-of-a-kind film might have cost the dark comedy dearly, as its focus shifts solely to this mission after a point, overlooking its soul. Pretty much everything one needs to know about Mollywood Times is already there in its teaser. Vineeth Madhavan is obsessed with becoming a filmmaker. An ardent fan of M Night Shyamalan, Ram Gopal Varma, and Vinayan, among others, Vineeth’s ambition is not just to break into show business but to do so with a bang. “The first will always be recorded and remembered in history. I …

Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai review: Varun Dhawan & Co. deliver laughs in this flawed, and at times, fun entertainer

Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai review: Varun Dhawan & Co. deliver laughs in this flawed, and at times, fun entertainer

Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai Cast: Varun Dhawan, Mrunal Thakur, Pooja Hegde, Maniesh Paul, Chunky Panday, Jimmy Shergill, Mouni Roy Director: David Dhawan Rating: ★★.5 (2.5 stars) This Friday’s box office is united by an unlikely theme: consent. In one film (Peddi), a stranger plants a kiss on a woman forcefully. In another (Bandar), a man finds himself facing rape allegations. In a third, a wife refuses intimacy without a condom (Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai). Different genres, different stakes, but all three films, directly or indirectly, deal with the same idea: what happens when one person’s desire collides with another person’s boundary? Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai review: The film is directed by David Dhawan. Not that Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai is interested in dwelling on questions quite so serious. This is, after all, a Varun Dhawan–David Dhawan comedy. Their sole mission is to make you chuckle. Do they succeed? Let’s find out. The plot The story revolves around Jass (Varun Dhawan), whose wife, Bani (Mrunal Thakur), forces him …

Euphoria Season 3: 5 times Sam Levinson succeeded in rage-baiting the audience with 50-foot Woman, poop, NSFW painting

Euphoria Season 3: 5 times Sam Levinson succeeded in rage-baiting the audience with 50-foot Woman, poop, NSFW painting

With Season 3, Sam Levinson’s polarised web series Euphoria comes to an end in the same way it began – with heated discourse on social media. The show might have veered off the rails as the cast and characters navigated adulthood, but the creator still managed to rage-bait his audience into watching the entire final season. Right from the first episode, he set the tone for what was to be expected. One might argue he didn’t follow through on the promise, but here are five times he successfully rage-baited the audience. Jacob Elordi and Sydney Sweeney play Nate and Cassie in Euphoria. (HBO Max) Faye swallowing drugs and losing bowel control Right in episode one, we’re told that Rue (Zendaya) and Faye (Chloe Cherry) are now drug mules for Laurie (Martha Kelly). Not only do we get a gross, drawn-out scene of both of them struggling to swallow balloons filled with drugs, but later Zendaya is given a strainer to poop out the drugs while Faye loses bowel control. To make the scene infinitely worse, …
