Vijay Sethupathi's ‘Ace' traileroffers a glimpse into a vibrant action entertainer
Makkal Selvan Vijay Sethupathi is all set to charm audiences in a romantic action comedy titled Ace, directed and produced by Arumuga Kumar under the banner of 7Cs Entertainment. The film stars Rukmini Vasanth as the female lead and will have a wide Telugu release through Shree Padmini Cinemas, under the presentation of Smt. Padma and B Shiva Prasad. The film is slated for a grand release on May 23.
The Telugu trailer, released today, offers a glimpse into a vibrant and witty action-packed entertainer. Vijay Sethupathi portrays 'Bold' Kashi—a man who constantly reinvents his identity. To one woman (Divya Pillai), he's a bold rebel fighting injustice. With Yogi Babu, his tale shifts humorously as 'Bolt' Kashi, known for swiping bolts off vehicles. In an intimate moment with Rukmini Vasanth, he likens himself to an electric force—intense and unpredictable.
Director Arumuga Kumar crafts a layered narrative filled with danger, deception, and a mysterious underworld. The trailer showcases a stylishly mounted world brimming with humor, action, and the signature charisma of Vijay Sethupathi.
Backed by strong technical values, Ace boasts Karan B Rawat's visually striking cinematography and Sam CS's electrifying background score. The trailer's punchy and clever dialogues have further raised expectations.
With its unique blend of romance, action, and comedy, Ace promises to be a summer entertainer with mass appeal. Vijay Sethupathi's multifaceted performance is set to be the film's major highlight.

Ludhiana: Teacher brings Telugu to life with nursery rhyme in school
After the Punjab School Education Board (PSEB) asked schools to teach the basics of Telugu under the Bharatiya Bhasha Summer Camp, Karamjeet Singh Grewal, a government schoolteacher in Ludhiana, went a step ahead as he made students sing a Telugu nursery rhyme. His initiative became the highlight of the Bharatiya Bhasha Summer Camp that commenced across the state schools on Thursday. Grewal, who teaches Punjabi at Government High School, Kheri Jhameri, taught his class 7 and 8 students a Telugu nursery rhyme called 'Cheeni Cheeni Papa Aalu'. The students sang the song with perfect pronunciation and rhythm. They even recorded a video of their performance and uploaded it to YouTube where it received praise from people across India, including native Telugu speakers. As per the PSEB directions, students are to be taught simple Telugu alphabet, colour names, basic sentences and greetings. But Grewal decided to go a step further. 'I want the children to enjoy the process, not just learn the words,' said Grewal. 'Because of my connection with the Scouts and Guides fellowship, I contacted some friends from Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. They helped me choose a meaningful Telugu rhyme and explained its cultural background. I then composed a simple tune to go with it.' The rhyme became an instant hit in the classroom. After just two days of practice, the students were able to sing the rhyme confidently. Grewal's passion for music started in his childhood, when he would sing devotional songs during village morning processions called 'Prabhat Pheris' in Lalton Kalan, Ludhiana. He went on to earn a master's degree in music and has written and composed over 800 songs for children in various Indian languages. In addition to Telugu, he has recorded nursery rhymes in Tamil, Gujarati and Assamese. He now aims to create nursery rhymes in all 24 official Indian languages and eventually branch out into foreign languages too. 'Music is a wonderful way to learn. It brings people together and makes learning joyful,' he said. Grewal has been recognised at both the state and national levels. He received a state award in 2009 and a national teaching award in 2013. In 2022, during India's 75th Independence anniversary celebrations, he won the top prize in a national lullaby contest for a patriotic Punjabi lori (lullaby). His efforts have been praised not just for creativity but for promoting India's cultural unity. At a time when many children struggle to learn new languages, Grewal has shown that music can act as a bridge between regions and cultures. He believes teachers can make a huge difference when given the freedom to innovate. 'If we teach with love and creativity, children will naturally develop interest,' he said. 'Learning a language is like opening a door to someone's culture—and children are the best ambassadors of that idea.'

Gul Panag on all things gold! Says her husband has always surprised her with the yellow metal as a gift
Gul Panag At a recent event Gul Panag was seen flaunting aviation inspired jewellry. The actress loves gems and jewels but she's drawn towards more wearable pieces. She tells us, 'I've always been drawn to jewellery that's wearable—pieces that don't just sit in a locker but actually become part of your everyday or personal style. For me, the value of jewellery comes from how seamlessly it can be worn, how it fits into your life rather than just symbolising it.' The actress who's a pilot, was enamoured seeing pieces inspired by runway and became a part of the Runway Collection launch. She said, 'As a pilot, seeing a collection that draws inspiration from aviation—necklaces, brooches, even watch charms designed around the concept of flying—felt very personal. There's something special about jewellery that speaks to your passions.' Ask her about her inclination towards gold, and the Dor actress says, 'Gold has always been a part of my life, but I wouldn't say I'm rigid about it. I also respect what gold has represented over the years, especially in Indian households—stability, tradition, even empowerment. I started working at 20, and I remember one of my first big purchases was gold in 2002. It was Rupees 3,500 for 10 grams back then. I bought a pair of earrings for Rupees 25,000. Every year, especially around Dhanteras, I'd buy something—small or big. It was my way of slowly building something valuable and meaningful.' The one person who's surprsing her with gold is her husband Nihal. 'He's firmly in the gold camp. He's been buying me gold for 20 years (since the time he has been her boyfriend). That's his thing. Birthdays, anniversaries—any occasion, and it's always gold. He sees it as a smart investment and, honestly, he's not wrong.' One of the most special pieces she owns is a polki navratan bajubandh—an armlet that was gifted to her by her parents at her wedding. 'It has a large polki in the centre surrounded by nine precious stones. It's striking, traditional, and one of my most treasured pieces—not just because of how it looks, but because of the emotion and memory attached to it,' she said.
