Shruti Haasan is all set to make her mark in Coolie, the much-anticipated action thriller headlined by superstar Rajinikanth and helmed by Lokesh Kanagaraj.

What a game! What a win! This is what every Indian is saying as our cricket team secured a dramatic victory in the fifth and final Test against England at The Oval, winning by just six runs. As India secured the victory, Bollywood celebs also took to their social media to celebrate the win. From Arjun Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor, to Suniel Shetty, who watched the match at the stadium, many shared sweet messages online.
Hrithik Roshan is among the biggest superstars in Bollywood. He has cemented his position with powerful performances in films like Koi Mil Gaya, Jodhaa Akbar, Guzaarish, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, Agneepath and Super 30, to name a few. Despite his stellar career, there are two films he regrets rejecting: Dil Chahta Hai and 3 Idiots. Interestingly, both films starred Aamir Khan as one of the protagonists.

Paris Olympics medallist Aman seals worlds berth
New Delhi: As India's freestyle wrestling goes through a period of transition, Aman Sehrawat has single-handedly kept the flag flying. He was the only Indian wrestler to return with a medal from the Paris Olympics. The 22-year-old will again carry the nation's hopes in the men's section at the upcoming World Championships in Zagreb in September. Paris Olympics bronze medallist Aman Sehrawat (in blue) competes during the World Wrestling Championships trials, in Lucknow. (PTI) A bronze at the Asian Games (2022) and gold at the 2023 Asian Championships ahead of the Paris performance highlight his consistency at major events. On Monday, Aman sailed through the selection trials in Lucknow, securing the berth in the 57kg category, defeating Sumit and Rahul by technical superiority. Another prominent name in the 10-member men's freestyle team is World Championships and Asian Games medallist Deepak Punia, who will compete in the 92kg class. The promising Sujeet Kalkal won the trials in the 65kg category. This will be Sehrawat's maiden appearance at the World Championships but he welcomes the pressure, saying it keeps him motivated. 'The admiration and support I receive give me the energy to perform on the mat, so I'm fine with the pressure. As an Olympic medallist, I understand that people expect me to return with a medal from the World Championships, and I will give my best shot for gold,' Sehrawat told HT. 'I have worked hard on my defence during training stints in Japan and Russia. I got to spar with some strong international wrestlers, which really helped. My leg defence has been a weak area, and I've worked extremely hard to improve it. The worlds will be a good test,' he said. It has been a tough season for Sehrawat. He struggled with injury and took time to return to the mat. 'There was a problem with my knee at the start of the year, so I didn't compete in the trials for the Asian Championships. I wanted to be fully fit before making a comeback. It was important to get some practice before the worlds, so I competed in the Ulaanbaatar Ranking Series.' Sehrawat won bronze at that tournament and was happy with his progress. 'I was competing after almost a year. It was an opportunity to get back on the mat and test my fitness, so I was satisfied with the result.' 'I've been working on my fitness, and today I felt good on the mat. In the 57kg, there are some strong wrestlers — Olympic gold medallist Rei Higuchi of Japan and silver medallist Spencer Lee from the USA. I'll have to see who all are competing at the worlds this time, but I feel I have a good chance,' said Sehrawat, who trains at Delhi's Chhatrasal Stadium. Among the new faces, Sujeet and Udit (61kg) are expected to put up strong performances. Sujeet has shown good form internationally and recently impressed at the ranking series in Hungary, winning the top prize. Udit claimed silver at the Senior Asian Championships and the 2025 Ulaanbaatar Open. The worlds will be a valuable testing ground for these young talents. Team: Aman Sehrawat (57kg), Udit (61kg), Sujeet Kalkal (65kg), Rohit (70kg), Jaideep (74kg), Amit (79kg), Mukul (86kg), Deepak Punia (92kg), Vickey (97kg), Rajat (125kg).

Yeh Rishta's Rahul Sharma on the power of long-running TV dramas; says ‘Infinite shows let you prove your worth'
Rahul Sharma , currently seen as Anshuman in Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai, opens up about the changing landscape of Indian television and how the format of a show shapes an actor's journey. 'Limited series may be the future, but infinite shows give you space to prove your talent,' Rahul shares. While acknowledging the growing popularity of short-format content, he feels these shows often don't allow actors the time to shine. 'Limited series are not always given the recognition they deserve. People don't easily notice your talent in short formats because they're not seen as hits unless they run for years.' Rahul believes that infinite shows, despite their challenges, offer greater scope for character development and audience connection. 'With longer-running shows, you have time to explore different shades, build audience attachment, and prove your place in the industry,' he explains. However, he's not dismissive of short-form storytelling. Reflecting on his own experience, Rahul adds, 'I've worked in both, like in Kaal Bhairav. Limited series can be impactful too, especially for thrillers or romance when done in seasons. They're tighter and more focused.' by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Why So Many Texas Drivers Are Switching Insurance After Seeing This Policy Auto Pro Get Quote Undo He also points out the unpredictability of TV today. 'You just can't predict how long a show will run anymore. What starts off as an infinite show might wrap up in a few months,' he says, emphasizing the need for flexibility and strong writing. Despite the rise of OTT, Rahul is confident about television's staying power. 'TV dramas still connect with families. If the story is engaging and relatable, people will watch,' he concludes. His perspective offers a grounded look at the evolving formats while reaffirming faith in the enduring power of television.

Farah Khan Warns Cook Dilip Not To Tell Husband About Her Flirting With Boman Irani
Last Updated: Farah Khan jokingly warns cook Dilip not to tell her husband she flirts with Boman Irani, says she considered casting couch for Main Hoon Na. Farah Khan's latest vlog is a riot of laughter, nostalgic anecdotes and trademark wit as she visits longtime friend and actor Boman Irani's home, accompanied by her ever-entertaining cook, Dilip. Known for their infectious chemistry and effortless humour, Farah and Boman light up the screen with their banter—and this time, even Boman's wife Zenobia joins in on the fun. Before stepping into the Irani household, Farah cheekily warns Dilip, 'Don't tell Shirish if I flirt with Boman." Confused, Dilip innocently asks, 'What is flirting?" Farah, with a mischievous grin, explains, 'Flirting means nain mataka, or if I hug Boman sir, or sit next to him." The laughs don't stop there. Recalling the casting of her 2004 film Main Hoon Na, Farah takes a playful dig, saying, 'The only time I wanted to do a casting couch for my movie was with Boman. But he got the role just like that, didn't even sit on the couch!" The room bursts into laughter. Dilip, clearly puzzled, is then asked if he knows what 'casting couch" means. When he says no, Farah shoos him away with a giggle: 'You please go to the kitchen now." Even Zenobia takes it in stride. When Boman asks how she puts up with such jokes, Farah interjects, 'Because she knows nobody believes we're having an affair." The vlog also reveals a charming throwback: Farah once dressed up for what she thought was Boman's birthday party, only to realise she had arrived a day early. The friends shared a hearty laugh reminiscing about the mix-up. As the group makes their way to the kitchen, Irani tries to excuse himself: 'This means it is my time to get out of the kitchen." But Farah protests, 'No sir, you need to be here. Chutney kaun lagayega apne haatho se?" prompting Irani to call Dilip for help. In a final moment of comic warning, Farah tells Dilip, 'Dare you tell anything to Shirish. I will have your salary reduced," to which Dilip responds with a sheepish smile.
