Did Farah Khan take a dig at Deepika Padukone's 8-hour shift demand? Her ‘Sona tapke hi banta hai' comment raises eyebrows
Farah Khan's thoughts on the 8-hour shift demand
In her recent YouTube vlog, Farah Khan visited Radhikka Madan's house. While they were discussing about her first audition for Meri Aashiqui Tumse Hi, the topic of shift hours came up. Recalling her experience, the Sarfira actress revealed that the moment the camera switched on, she felt very safe. After giving the audition, she was sure that they wouldn't cast her. But, to her surprise, she was shooting for her next show within 2 days.
It was then that Farah questioned her about having an 8-hour shift. Radhikka then replied, '56 hours non-stop or 48 hours non-stop.' The filmmaker who has worked with Deepika Padukone in Happy New Year and Om Shanti Om hinted that even she does not support an 8-hour shift. She shared, 'Aise tapke hi toh sona banta hai (this is how gold is made)."
What is the Deepika Padukone and Sandeep Reddy Vanga controversy?
For the unversed, Deepika Padukone had agreed to be a part of Sandeep Reddy Vanga 's film after she loved the way her part was written. However, just a matter of days after the news of her inclusion sank in, it was reported that Deepika had walked out of the project. According to sources, the Bajirao Mastani actress decided to part ways with the film because the producers and directors failed to meet her demands.
Deepika Padukone's work front

Hans Niemann jokes about buying a castle as he detoxes in nature after Freestyle Chess high in Las Vegas
American chess Grandmaster Hans Niemann has always been one of a rather colourful characters in the world of the sport. Be it his overjoyed reactions at arch-rival Magnus Carlsen's or being accused of the World No.1 of cheating, he has always grabbed headlines. In a new video uploaded on his YouTube channel, Niemann, who finished second in the recently concluded Freestyle Chess event at Las Vegas, was seen relaxing on the countryside, detoxing from the constant hectic schedule and jokingly said that he had bought a castle. 'Hello everyone. Welcome to my new castle. After my victory in Las Vegas, I wanted to make a new acquisition. This is where I'll be doing most of my training. And uh perhaps I'll welcome some of my fellow chess players to enjoy my new purchase,' he said in the video. In the video he also talked about getting to playing classical chess. He said that he had played 261 classical games in 2021, then 180 in 2022. Then the cheating scandal happened. He said since October last year, he played in just one classical chess event, Aeroflot Open in Russia. He will be playing at Spanish league now as he looks to get back into classical chess mode as he looks to get in shape for big events like FIDE World Cup in India and the Grand Swiss tournament 'Recap: Las Vegas. Obviously my performance in Las Vegas was a surprise to fully everyone but myself. I immersed myself into freestyle and probably haven't opened Chessbase in a while. So hopefully when I play my first classical tournaments in a while, the Spanish League, starting from August 8th, I'll be able to reacclimatize to the speed or the lack of speed in classical. I'll be playing the Spanish league. It's a seven games all classical. And then after that, there's obviously the Grand Swiss from September 3rd to 15th in Uzbekistan. And then after that we have the next freestyle tournament which is the second to last slam of the tour and then after that the US championship and then after the US championship we have the world cup from the world cup you have the final in Cape Town. After the final in Cape Town there's a global chess league so I am just in nature detoxing from life uh preparing for the all the big tournaments that lie ahead,' Niemann said. 'As you guys know, my last classical tournament if you disregard the Aeroflot Open last March was the US championship in October. So that means from from now, you know we're in August between October, I played one classical tournament which you know as some of you may remember, I played 261 games in a year. So it's quite weird going from that form but looking forward to play a lot of classical chess and focusing on that and trying to make it to the Candidates. So I'll continue documenting the journey and um thank you guys for watching and I'll see you soon, he added.

Apoorva Mukhija aka Rebel Kid spends Rs 3 lakh on her makeover, reveals she got teeth veneers: ‘My natural was so ugly'
Popular content creator Apoorva Mukhija, better known as Rebel Kid, has just dropped a candid and humorous video on her YouTube channel, offering fans a behind-the-scenes look into her recent glow-up journey that cost her around Rs 3 lakh. In the 11-minute vlog, Apoorva shared that that she got everything from a hair makeover and teeth veneers to nails, brows, and even a facial massage, all documented with her signature self-deprecating humour and quirky commentary. The vlog opened with Apoorva introducing herself in her trademark satirical style, saying: 'Log mujhe pyaar se kuch nahi bulate hai, kyunki log mujhe pyaar se bulate hi nahi hai.' (People don't call me anything lovingly, because they don't call me with love at all.) She goes on to explain the inspiration behind this transformation, adding: 'So I started introspecting about why people didn't like me, and then I realised it's not me, it's God's fault. Kyunki bhagwan ne mujhe attitude toh Aishwarya Rai wala diya par shakal ye diya hai. Isliye today I have decided to change myself physically.' (Because God gave me Aishwarya Rai's attitude, but this face. So today I've decided to change myself physically.) Her first stop was a salon visit where she got her hair coloured, not without some light-hearted jabs at herself: 'Maine sir ko bola hai ki aap mere baal bleach nahi kar sakte, kyunki mere sar par chaar hi baal bache hai. Aur agar yeh bhi jhad gaye toh mujhe hair transplant karwana padega.' (I told the stylist not to bleach my hair because I only have four strands left on my head. If these fall out too, I'll need a hair transplant.) Joining her in the salon was fellow influencer Anmol Bhatia, who also gets her hair coloured. Apoorva wrapped up her salon visit with a pedicure before moving on to the next step in her glow-up. Also Read | Apoorva Mukhija says Nadaaniyan co-star Khushi Kapoor has insane work ethic: 'People are really harsh with nepo babies…' The video then took us to a dental clinic where Apoorva underwent teeth whitening and talked openly about getting veneers: 'This is not my actual real teeth. I absolutely hated what my actual teeth looked like. I have gotten veneers, which basically means unhone mere purane daanton ke upar naye daant laga diye hai, cement kar diya.' (They put new teeth over my original ones and cemented them in.) She also addressed the online trolling she's faced in recent weeks for her veneers: 'So, all the comments about veneers were like 'Oh my God, I'm so sad, she used to look so pretty.' And I just have one question for you all, are you all blind? People were like 'you look so unnatural', so I'm like, yeah, because my natural was so ugly.' Next, Apoorva visited her dermatologist and continued to poke fun at her own transformation: 'Mujhe vishwas nahi ho raha hai ki main life mein itni ameer ho chuki hoon ki mere paas ye bhinn-bhnn prakaar ke doctors hai. Mere papa bachpan mein ek uncle ko phone lagate the jo humari building mein rehte the, aur wohi humari saari beemariyon ka ilaaj kar dete the. Humare papa kabhi humein doctor ke paas lekar nahi jaate the, kehte the ki Combiflam kha lo, sab theek ho jaayega. But now look at me, taking six appointments in a day.' (I can't believe I've become so rich that I now have different types of doctors. As a child, my father would just call an uncle from our building to treat all our illnesses. He never took us to a doctor, he'd just say take Combiflam and everything will be fine.) She wrapped up the day with a visit to a nail salon where she opts for cat-eye nails that change colour: 'I got one of those cat-eye nails whose colour keeps changing, because for my 24th birthday, I wanted to do something that truly reflects what my life has been for the past 23 years, which is: my life surrounded by people who keep changing their colours.' In the closing moments of the video, after her glow-up is complete, Apoorva signed off in her trademark style: 'I spent close to Rs 3 lakh, and this is what I finally look like now. I honestly look the same. Whatever little difference is there is because of the makeup. Nothing really changed even after spending Rs 3 lakh, except for my teeth, which you all seem to hate. So if you liked this video, please like, share, and subscribe, and help me earn my Rs 5 lakh back.' For those unfamiliar, Apoorva Mukhija made headlines earlier this year when she appeared on comedian Samay Raina's controversial panel show India's Got Latent, alongside creators like Ranveer Allahbadia and Ashish Chanchlani. The episode sparked massive backlash online due to its use of objectionable language, leading to FIRs against the panel members. The situation escalated so much that Apoorva was reportedly asked to vacate her rented home. Most recently, Apoorva appeared in Amazon Prime Video's reality show The Traitors and was also featured in filmmaker Farah Khan's YouTube series, where Farah visits celebrity homes with her personal chef, Dilip.

Watch: Amid Trade Rumours, Samson's Epic Rajasthan Royals Comment Leaves Ashwin Speechless
Last Updated: Sanju Samson may leave Rajasthan Royals for Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2026. Ravichandran Ashwin also wants to leave CSK. They discussed this on Ashwin's YouTube channel. Is Sanju Samson willing to part ways with the Rajasthan Royals and move to Chennai? Speculations have been rife about the Indian wicketkeeper-batter making a crucial move ahead of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026. Several reports have also suggested that former Indian off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has expressed his desire to leave Chennai Super Kings. However, there is nothing concrete about the matter, while the media reports have been adding fuel to the fire. Just as the rumours were gaining momentum, Sanju and Ashwin sat down for a chat on the latter's YouTube channel. While the full episode — Kutti Stories with Ash, Season 3, Episode 4 — has yet to be released, a couple of trailers have generated excitement among fans. In the latest trailer, Ashwin asked Samson what he would like to change if he had a time machine. The latter's teasing left the veteran cricketer speechless with his reply. Samson said he would change the decision of the Rajasthan Royals to release Ashwin ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auctions. 'I'll give you a time machine. Have you seen the Tamil movie, 'Indru Netru Naalai'? So, you can go back in time. If you are asked to change a decision, which incident would that be in your life?" Ashwin asked. In reply, Samson said, 'I think, not retaining Ash Bhai." Ashwin was left speechless while Samson burst into laughter. 'I'm telling the truth only. We went for you till 9.5 crore (in the mega auctions)," Samson said, getting Ashwin's agreement. Both Ashwin and Samson were part of the Rajasthan Royals till IPL 2024. However, ahead of the mega auctions, the franchise retained Samson and released Ashwin with 17 others. The off-spinner then bagged a CSK contract worth Rs 9.75 crore and returned to the franchise after 8 years. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
