Certification of films: Govt notifies age-based categories
The government Saturday notified age-based categories certification of films to promote age-appropriate viewing, particularly for the parental guidance group.
In a gazette notification, the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting amended the rules notified in December 1991 laying down principles for sanctioning films for public exhibition.
The rules allow the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) to allow certification of films for unrestricted public exhibition with an endorsement in accordance with the nature.
'Content suitable for a child aged seven years and above and under the age of seven years with parental guidance shall be classified as 'U/A 7+' rating… child aged thirteen years and above and under the age of thirteen years with parental guidance classified as 'U/A 13+'… child aged sixteen years and above and under the age of sixteen years… as 'U/A 16+' rating,' the notification read.

The Young and the Restless June 2 Spoilers: Will Kyle Impress Victor With His Efforts During Nikki's Birthday?
On the June 2 episode of The Young and the Restless, Nikki 's party will be nothing less than a glamorous event that will bring many people together. At the party, Devon will tease Nick about Sharon. He will also ask about Nick's dynamic with her. Nick will tell him clearly that they are friends, just the way he is with Phyllis. Meanwhile, Pietro will be moved when he has a conversation with Nikki, as she will thank him for helping Clair with the party. Tensions will rise between Michael and Victor after the former tries to have a conversation about Dumas. But Victor will not talk to him about that, which will make Michael more hurt. Will Kyle's efforts impress Victor? Once the lights dim, Claire and Kyle will bring out Nikki's beautiful cake. The fans will see Kyle making a wholesome speech about the birthday girl. He will then give her a bracelet engraved with her kids' and grandkids' names. Amid this, Victor will just stand, seemingly without being impressed by Kyle's efforts. This will potentially bring more problems to Kyle and Claire's relationship. Lily will be concerned about Dumas knowing their motives Dumas reveals to Lily, Nate, and Audra that Dumas' assistant has fired him. Lily will be concerned that Dumas knows what they were planning against him. Damian will think that this does not matter as he was going to quit anyway. But, according to Lily, Dumas may have intentions to go after Winters. Lilly will insist that this party will be an opportunity to grill Duman in person. With Damian's firing, Holden may also be out of a job; he will probably ask if Audra's company is hiring. Audra will make excuses to dismiss the idea. This points to Audra probably having more drama with Holden.

‘Whatever the result, it's going to be a heartbreak': SS Rajamouli pens note ahead of IPL 2025 finale
SS Rajamouli is undoubtedly one of the most renowned and successful filmmakers in Indian cinema. He is currently in the spotlight owing to the never-ending buzz surrounding his next project, SSMB29, starring Mahesh Babu, Priyanka Chopra, Prithviraj Sukumaran, and more. SS Rajamouli's note ahead of IPL 2025 finale Despite his busy schedule, it seems the director has spared some time to keep a tab on the ongoing IPL matches this season. Well, the Premier League's final playoff is scheduled for June 3, 2025, between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Punjab Kings. He recently took to X and dropped a note ahead of the impending finale between the two deserving teams. The filmmaker highlighted that both team captains deserve to lift the trophy in equal measure. However, the director remarked that the final result in either case will be heartbreaking, where only one team will win. An excerpt from his note read, 'Whatever the result… it's going to be a heartbreak…' SS Rajamouli broke the silence on his future project Mahabharata SS Rajamouli 's films so far have always been associated with a running theme of grandeur. Prime examples of the same are his movies RRR and Baahubali. For some time now, reports about the director taking up a project on the Mahabharata had been rife. While the director had kept mum when it came to confirming any information on the project, he recently did give a heads-up on the same, confirming one of the actors who would be a part of it. Speaking at a pre-release event for the film HIT-The Third Case, Rajamouli tagged Nani and said, 'Definitely, Nani will be part of my film based on Mahabharata." SS Rajamouli's next big project SSMB29 Fast forward to now, the director is shooting his next immediate project, titled SSMB29. A globe-trotting adventure in the making, the movie stars Mahesh Babu in the lead, marking their first-ever collaboration. The film also stars Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Prithviraj Sukumaran in lead roles. The makers have kept a strict policy against leaking any information on the movie so far. Massive sets have been constructed for the film, and it is expected to bring a grand spectacle on-screen. The project is reportedly scheduled for release sometime in 2026.
