Lively, who has produced far more documents in this case than the Wayfarer Parties combined,' the representative stated, before adding, 'Further, the Court's protective order ruling rests on the Wayfarer Parties' admission that they received nothing from Taylor Swift, which is exactly the opposite of what their 'insider' claimed two weeks ago,' according to Fox News.

Ferrari or colouring book? ₹4.1 crore Ferrari becomes kids' painting canvas at Dubai party
Dubai has always been popular for pushing boundaries when it comes to wealth and luxury. May it be in the form of gold-plated cars, sky-high hotels, or indoor ski slopes in the desert. The city is no stranger to similar unbelievable instances. It's a place where extravagance is not just embraced, in fact, it is celebrated. And in an age where social media brings all new trends into the limelight, a video went viral from a child's birthday party that is a true representation of luxury but has also questioned the ways of imparting values in children. This birthday party from Dubai shows how well the city's popularity is suited to extravagance, which has left social media amused. A viral video, shared by the Instagram account Dubai Elevated, shows a bright yellow Ferrari, estimated to be worth approximately ₹4.1 crore, being painted on by a group of children as part of a birthday celebration. In the video, the children are seen cheerfully using watercolours to decorate the car, turning the high-performance sports car into a temporary art project. Rather than the usual balloons and party games, this Ferrari became the centrepiece of what might be one of the most unusual birthday parties ever caught on camera. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Eat 1 Teaspoon Every Night, See What Happens A Week Later!

While some found the spectacle entertaining, others criticized it as tone-deaf. According to one Instagram user, 'And this is why I stopped living in Dubai…', hinting a mixed reaction with the growing discomfort with the city's over-the-top displays of wealth. Another person commented, 'Maybe you should consider helping those who don't have enough in life and teach your children the correct values of life?' Several viewers questioned the choice of activity for the children. 'No other games to play for children? What do they learn?' asked one user, while another joked, 'Don't be surprised if these kids paint their dad's car next time.' Some people also commented humorously, one viewer sarcastically warned, 'They are waiting for a Ferrari lawsuit,' while another pointed out, saying, 'Watercolours. Easy cleaning with the first wash.' The video, though only seconds long, has also ignited discussion about parenting, priorities, and values in ultra-rich communities. While some defended the act as harmless fun using washable paint, others viewed it as yet another example of extravagance disconnected from reality.

Top Bollywood star came nine hours late on set; Amrish Puri slapped him in public when he arrived
In the glamourous world of Bollywood, stories of on-screen magic often overshadow the tense moments that unfold behind the camera. But every now and then, an incident emerges that reveals a different side of film sets—one that speaks of discipline, frustration, and the clash of two very different personalities. One such moment involved two big names: the late Amrish Puri and Govinda . A Habitual Delay Meets a Man of Discipline Govinda, a star known for his effortless comic timing and dance moves, was also notorious for being late to shoots. In contrast stood Amrish Puri—an actor respected not only for his commanding screen presence but also for his off-screen punctuality and professionalism. These two opposing traits clashed one day during a film shoot that became the subject of lasting industry conversation. According to reports, Amrish Puri had arrived at the set sharply at 9 a.m., ready to shoot. The crew and other cast members waited, but Govinda did not show up for hours. It wasn't until nearly 6 p.m.—after an agonizing nine-hour wait—that the younger actor finally appeared. The delay reportedly sparked an intense confrontation between the two. In a moment of frustration, Amrish Puri is said to have slapped Govinda in full public view on the set. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Treatment That Might Help You Against Knee Pain Knee pain | search ads Find Now Undo Though shocking, the incident was less about personal animosity and more about Amrish Puri's strict approach to work. Known for his no-nonsense attitude, he upheld values of punctuality and respect for time. Govinda's repeated delays had evidently pushed the senior actor to his limit. The altercation sparked media interest, especially since both actors continued to work in the industry afterward. Though Govinda was reportedly upset by the incident and even hesitant to work with Puri again for a time, they never made their differences public in a big way. Amrish Puri: A Legacy of Strength Amrish Puri's towering reputation wasn't just built on roles like Mogambo from Mr. India or Mola Ram from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. It was reinforced by his work ethic. Entering the film industry at the age of 40, he went on to appear in more than 450 films across languages. His dedication to every role—whether villainous or noble—earned him immense respect in India and abroad. His commitment went far beyond just performance. For the role of Mola Ram, Puri even shaved his head, an iconic look that left a lasting impression internationally. Off-screen, he brought the same seriousness to every assignment.
