Virat Kohli's restaurant in hot water again: Here's why it's facing legal heat for 2nd time
Star cricketer Virat Kohli landed in legal trouble after his pub and restaurant One8 Commune stirred controversy for not having a designated smoking area. Yes, you heard that right! The Cubbon Park Police have filed a suo motu case against the restaurant against the eatery for breaching rules under the Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products Act (COTPA). According to a report by The Hindu, the Cubbon Park police have escalated their action against public spaces allowing smoking, conducting multiple surprise inspections at bars and restaurants. During the drive, they filed cases against five bars and restaurants, including One8 Commune, the famous restaurant owned by Virat Kohli. The police got a tip and took action based on that with his team. They paid surprise visits to several restaurants and pubs including One8 Commune, located just around 200 meters from the police station on Kasturba Road. The police found the rules violated there and booked the staff and management under Sections 4 and 21 of the Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products Act (COTPA) for not providing a separate smoking zone. For the unversed, a separate smoking zone is compulsory in hotels, restaurants, and airports. Meanwhile, this isn't the first time that Virat Kohli's restaurant has landed in legal trouble. Back in July 2024, the same police station filed a case against the restaurant along with other two for staying open beyond permitted hours. Just days back, Virat Kohli was spotted at the Chandigarh airport and grabbed headlines. He was seen with his wife and actress Anushka Sharma in a video that went viral. The highlight is the cricketer engaging in a chat with her and the cute banter made the actress smile. Virat was so amused by the moment that he burst into laughter, covering his face with his hand to hide his reaction. The duo also had two spiritual retreats within a month. They visited first Vrindavan to meet Premanand Ji Maharaj and then were seen visiting Ayodhya's Hanuman Garhi. Several photos and videos of the same went viral on the internet and fans loved their spiritual side. Anushka and Virat got married in 2018 in an intimate ceremony. They are parents to two children, a daughter Vamika, and a son Akaay.

Miss England Milla Magee shares pics from Ibiza holiday after leaving India mid-way through Miss World pageant
Milla Magee, the reigning Miss England, recently quit the Miss World pageant midway citing ethical concerns. Magee, 24, left India on May 16, accusing the Miss World organisers of exploiting contestants. She told The Sun that she was being made to feel 'like a prostitute' at the beauty pageant, which concluded in Hyderabad on May 31 with the crowning of Thailand's Opal Suchata Chuangsri. Two days after the grand finale of the Miss World beauty pageant in Hyderabad, Milla Magee seems to have reached Ibiza. The Spanish island is known for its stunning beaches and vibrant nightlife. Magee took to Instagram to share a series of photographs from Ibiza a few hours ago. Her Instagram Stories show a beach crowded with hundreds of tourists, a picture of calm waters captioned 'Elixir', and a photograph of the friend who seems to be accompanying her on the holiday. Milla Magee grew up in London, initially being schooled at More House. She later moved to Cornwall. She is currently based in Newquay in Cornwall, where she also works as a lifeguard. In a no-holds-barred interview with The Sun, Magee said that her experience at the Miss World pageant in Hyderabad left her emotionally shaken. She said she 'felt like a prostitute' and was 'farmed out for entertainment' by the organisers. 'I went there to make a difference, but we had to sit like performing monkeys. It's stuck in the past. Morally, I couldn't be a part of it,' she said. In an interview with The Hindu, Miss World chief executive Julia Morley rubbished these claims. Morley said that Magee's 'false and defamatory statements' were 'completely unfounded and inconsistent with the reality of her time with us'. She also added that Magee quit the pageant as 'she didn't stand a chance in the competition'.

Chinmayi Sripada on comparisons over 'Thug Life' song: ‘I want to apologise to Dhee'
Singer Chinmayi Sripada finds herself at the centre of attention for her stirring rendition of the song 'Mutha Mazhai' at the recent Thug Life audio launch. Her performance has ignited a social media frenzy, with fans demanding its inclusion in the film and drawing comparisons to Dhee's original version. Chinmayi, however, has quelled the debate, emphasising artistic camaraderie over competition. Addressing the latest surge in popularity and the ensuing comparisons in an interview with The Hindu, Chinmayi articulated her perspective. Describing it as a regular on-stage rendition of an original song, she said that it is not something she has done for the first time, citing her prior versions of KS Chithra and S Janaki's songs. Chinmayi also emphasised that she sang the Tamil version of the song at the audio launch of Thug Life due to the absence of its original singer, Dhee. Chinmayi then addressed the comparisons, expressing her discomfort. She said that Thug Life makers must have chosen Dhee for a 'quirky' version of the song. She then described Dhee's musical expression as being inimitable and called the comparison between their versions of the song unnecessary. 'It feels like we are part of a wrestling match that we did not sign up for,' said the 'Tere Bina' singer. She underscored the mutual respect prevalent among artists and even extended an apology to Dhee for the comparisons.
