Did Janhvi Kapoor rebuff Ishaan Khatter on the Cannes red carpet? Homebound co-star Vishal Jethwa defends actor, says, ‘She can never do something so disrespectful'
Recently, Janhvi Kapoor, Ishaan Khatter, and Vishal Jethwa made headlines for their fashion statement at Cannes 2025. The actors were present at the French Riviera for the premiere of their film Homebound. A gesture of Janhvi Kapoor, however, made news for the wrong reason when a section on social media alleged that she rebuffed her Dhadak co-star Ishaan Khatter. In a video that surfaced online, Janhvi appeared to ignore Ishaan, leading everyone to speculate if the two actors had some bad blood. However, their co-star, Vishal Jethwa, spoke to Zoom TV and defended Janhvi, clarifying that there is no 'awkwardness' or 'cold war' between the two as assumed.

Talking about the allegations where Janhvi appeared to be rude to Ishaan, Vishal said, 'It wasn't true, in fact, at that moment, Ishaan was helping me as I couldn't understand the question. People there talk in French, and I couldn't understand how to even answer them in English. So Ishaan started answering, and till then, I thought I would ask Janhvi what they were asking. We were both discussing that, and people thought we were doing our own thing. I respect Ishaan a lot, and I am very thankful to him, because I get to learn a lot from both Janhvi and Ishaan.'

He even revealed whether both actors were awkward with each other. He said, 'It's all just rumors, there is nothing like that. I have seen Ishaan and Janhvi work together; they are very comfortable with each other. They wish well for one another, and they even speak to each other very nicely. I remember when I was walking holding Janhvi's trail, and when she was climbing on stage, Ishaan offered his hand, but since she was holding her dress, she didn't hold his hand. She is a very sensible girl and can never do something so disrespectful.'
Homebound is produced by Karan Johar and written by Neeraj Ghaywan and Sumit Roy. The film received a 9-minute-long standing ovation at Cannes.

Inside TV Actor Gautam Rode's Duplex Home in Mumbai Filled With Budget-Friendly Decor and Photo Frames
Gautam Rode and Pankhuri Awasthy are the television power couple the audience can't resist talking about. Whether it is the couple's professional careers, acting prowess, charming personalities, or their sweet home, they leave no chance to set serious goals. The duo resides in a four-bedroom duplex apartment in Mumbai with their two little munchkins, Radhya and Raditya. In an exclusive home tour with PINKVILLA, the most-loved TV couple spoke about their uber-spacious abode and how they self-decorated their space from scratch. One must not forget that their sweet home and lifestyle are a true reflection of their hard work in the entertainment industry. The Lavish Living Room Their lavish living room features an alluring wallpaper, an incredible ceiling height, rattan furniture, paintings, artificial indoor plants, and a thoughtfully designed sofa. Without seeking any help from the interior designer, the Rodes decorated their space with immense love and practicality. It has been more than a year since they shifted into the duplex, welcoming plenty of sunlight. No sooner than you enter their home, you sense the comfort and warm appeal of their mansion. What screams their passion for art and craft is the lamps, plants, elephant figurines, laughing Buddha statues, cabinets, and captivating wall-hanging paintings. Since they are not very fond of ultra-modern house s, their floral-themed living room reflects their love for Indian decor that look every bit budget-friendly. Some of their interior decor pieces have been crafted and personalized by skilled carpenters, while others have been ordered online and sourced from various parts of the country. The Dining Area With Photo Frames Complementing the neutral theme of the living room, there's a dining area in one corner. Next to the wooden dining table, a vintage crockery cabinet stands, complete with a pull-out tray to display a delicious spread. What makes the centre of attraction are the wall paintings, which are nothing short of distinctive pieces of Indian art. The vibe and overall appeal of the area also make it a fantastic backdrop to shoot content. The Majestic Staircase The baby-proof house has a majestic staircase, decorated with artificial plants, jars, and photo frames. Leading to the first floor of the house, there are two rooms — one is the kids' bedroom and the other is their master bedroom. Their twins, Radhya and Raditya, have separate cots and a designated play area, where they spend the majority of their time. Every corner of their room highlights the needs of the babies, featuring cabinets filled with toys, an almirah, and a utility space for kettles, milk bottles, and other baby items. On the pathway, a cabinet displaying their family photographs captivates the attention of every passerby. As you enter the guest room on the second floor, the poster bed leaves you stunned. Complementing the appeal of the bed, there stands a wooden almirah in one corner and a temple in the other. Every day for half an hour, the couple offers their prayers. The Terrific Balcony The spacious balcony on the second floor is home to a variety of plants and a swing. In the morning and evening, the duo, along with the kids, spend leisure time. It is one of the most coziest areas, lending a great feel, especially during the monsoon. Nicely lit up with yellow lights, the space is among their favorite corners of the house. Gautam Rode and Pankhur Awasthy's home is a reflection of not just their triumphs but also the love and warmth they share. From the artistic interiors to the breathtaking vintage decor and neatly furnished spaces, every nook and corner of their Mumbai duplex tells a story of happiness and passion for life. It is now quite evident that the couple prefers living a simple yet luxurious life. Their home is a place where dreams and ambitions meet comfort seamlessly.

India has shown world that terrorism will no longer be tolerated: Dhankhar
Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar on Tuesday (June 5, 2025) said India has shown the world that terrorism will no longer be tolerated and that the nation's rise is now "unstoppable, incremental and full of possibilities". Addressing students at Sainik School Chittorgarh — his alma mater — on the occasion of his visit, Mr. Dhankhar said, "Enough is enough! No more tolerance of terrorism. Those who will commit barbarity, use terrorism as a weapon, will be taught the lesson of their life like Bahawalpur and Muridke." Citing India's recent military operations, he said, "Operation Sindoor did not target civilians, did not wantonly destroy property. Only the terrorist hideouts were targeted. Precise, calibrated, accurate and we all had the occasion to see it." Lauding the Indian armed forces, he said, "The Pahalgam barbarity has been avenged to the accolades of the entire world. Jaish-e-Mohammed, Lashkar-e-Taiba, who defined terrorism, their locations in Bahawalpur and Muridke, deep inside the territory of Pakistan, beyond international border were destroyed." "You must have seen coffins being escorted by terrorists, their army and their politicians. That was the greatest success of our defence forces," he remarked. Calling the present times a transformational phase for the country, the vice president said, "We are a nation on the rise, the rise is unstoppable, the rise is incremental. We are no longer a nation with potential. "Our potential is getting exploited. We are no longer a nation that dreams, No." "Viksit Bharat is our destination, we are marching towards that and we will succeed," he asserted, urging the youth to contribute by making optimal use of their time and talent. He said India's achievements in science and defence reflect this growing strength. "What I did not dream. I never thought Bharat will rise so much that we will be the first nation in the world to land our Chandrayaan-3 at the South Pole of the Moon." Welcoming the increased participation of women in all sectors, the vice president said a big change has taken place. The Sainik Schools were meant only for boys and 50% of humanity was ignored. "Can you succeed in the world without 50% of the talent not being recognised?" he asked. He said Indian girls are combat pilots, they are in the police force and in the CAPFs (Central Armed Police Forces). He said those girls involved with ISRO are called rocket women. Participation of girls in equal measure is fundamental, he said. Appreciating Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, he said, "I must appreciate Prime Minister Modi for achieving something which did not happen for three decades earlier — an epochal development, a game-changing development -- one-third reservation for women in Lok Sabha and state legislatures." He also highlighted the establishment of all-girls Sainik Schools, including one in Mathura, as a major milestone. Calling Sainik School Chittorgarh his true birthplace, Mr. Dhankhar said, "I was born in village Kithana, district Jhunjhunu, but that was my biological birth. My real birth took place in Sainik School, Chittorgarh." "Sainik School taught me values, discipline, decorum, friendliness, care for the environment, to be one amongst many and not to be alone ever." The vice president encouraged students to overcome fear and failure. "Never fear, never have tension, never have stress because these only slide you down. There are no failures in life. Failure is a message: do more." He invoked Swami Vivekananda's call to action, "Arise, Awake and stop not till the goal is reached."
