Randhir Kapoor joked about asking ‘wealthy daughters’ Kareena Kapoor-Karisma to adopt him after leaving them and wife Babita to fend for themselves: ‘Horrible husband’ | Bollywood News

More than his career, veteran actor Randhir Kapoor has often remained in the news for his personal life. Coming from the Kapoor family, Randhir got an easy entry into the Hindi film industry and also gained popularity for his romantic roles. He starred in hits like Haath Ki Safai (1974), Chacha Bhatija (1977), Rampur Ka Lakshman (1972) and Jawani Diwani (1972). However, the actor soon got typecast in similar roles and also avoided experimenting, leading to audiences gradually losing interest in him. Meanwhile, his younger brother Rishi Kapoor made his debut in 1973 and became an instant heartthrob, eventually overshadowing his elder brother. The professional setback filtered down to Randhir’s personal life and he began drinking heavily. Time and again, he has spoken about his ‘not-so-perfect’ marriage with Babita Kapoor and how he was a ‘horrible father’ to his daughters and actresses Kareena Kapoor and Karisma Kapoor. Let’s take a look at the same. Randhir was doing ‘time pass’ before Raj Kapoor made him marry Babita Randhir met Babita on the sets of his father …

The White Lotus Season 3 Trailer: Mystery and Drama Await as Wealthy Vacationers’ Peaceful Trip to Thailand Takes Wild Turn

HBO dropped the trailer of The White Lotus season three featuring some exquisite new faces vacationing at a luxurious Thai resort. The trailer starts with a peaceful montage of Thailand and rich vacationers being welcomed at the resort.  “Our hotel is the best in the world,” an employee brags. “At the end of the week, you will be an entirely different person,” he added, hinting at the underlying dark theme of the series.  The trailer shifts between different groups of guests indulging in different luxurious activities, from a girl gang (Leslie Bibb, Carrie Coon, and Michelle Monaghan) planning wild parties to a couple (Aimee Lou Wood and Walton Goggins) questioning their lifestyle choices.  “What happens in Thailand stays in Thailand,” one of the guests declares. Gradually, things start to take a dark and wild turn. K-pop star Lalisa, who stars as one of the employees of the Thai resort, says in the trailer that people who come to Thailand are either hiding from someone or looking for someone.  A family of five is on a seemingly …

Biden is issuing a budget plan that details his vision for a second term

Joe Biden is issuing a budget plan Monday aimed at getting voters’ attention: tax breaks for families, lower health care costs, smaller deficits and higher taxes on the wealthy and corporations. Unlikely to pass the House and Senate to become law, the proposal for fiscal 2025 is an election-year blueprint about what the future could hold if Biden and enough of his fellow Democrats win in November. The president and his aides previewed parts of his budget going into last week’s State of the Union address, with plans to provide the fine print on Monday. If the Biden budget became law, deficits could be pruned USD 3 trillion over a decade. Parents could get an increased child tax credit. Homebuyers could get a tax credit worth USD 9,600. Corporate taxes would jump upward, while billionaires would be charged a minimum tax of 25 per cent. Biden also wants Medicare to have the ability to negotiate prices on 500 prescription drugs, which could save USD 200 billion over 10 years. The president is travelling Monday to …
