Why Is Karan Aujla In Trouble Over His Song MF Gabhru?
Katan Aujla arrived in India amid a controversy related to his recently released song MF Gabhru over the alleged use of objectionable language against women. Taking note of the matter, the Punjab State Women's Commission issued a suo motu notice, stating that the lyrics are disrespectful and promote misogyny. As quoted by ANI, Chairperson Raj Lali Gill said, 'Everyone has listened to the song and objected, but it still gets millions of views. It's not just the Women's Commission's responsibility to notice this; listeners and society also must reject such language."
She added, 'In the songs, the singer neither controls their language nor considers respecting mothers… They do this to make money. But it impacts our children." The Punjabi singer was ordered to appear before the commission on Monday, August 11, for his connection to the case, but he failed to do so. Moreover, the commission also directed the Director General of Police (DGP), Punjab, to initiate an inquiry through a senior official and submit a report.
When Is Karan Aujla's New Album Releasing?
Karan Aujla is all set to release his album, titled P-Pop Culture, on August 22. Just days back, he revealed the names of all 11 tracks on his new project, which also includes the song MF Gabhru. The Punjabi rapper and singer released the pre-release single on August 1. MF Gabhru has been written, composed, and sung by Karan Aujla, with music produced by Ikky. Since its release, the video has crossed 3 million views on YouTube, drawing widespread attention.

Kirron Kher says Anupam Kher feels bad when she doesn't appreciate his work, advises son Sikandar Kher to 'be more like Anupam': 'Sikandar is a laat saheb...'

Veteran actor Kirron Kher is known for her open and honest personality, both on and off screen. In a recent interview, she revealed that she never praises her family's work unless it truly impresses her, even if that means hurting feelings at home. 'I am not one of those people who appreciates family members just like that. My husband feels bad about it,' she told News18, admitting she can't pretend to like every film Anupam Kher has done. 'It shows on my face,' she laughed, recalling how she didn't enjoy Sikandar's performance in Tigmanshu Dhulia's Milan Talkies. Advice to Sikandar: 'Be more like Anupam' Kirron shared that she often urges her son to be less selective with projects. While Sikandar is 'very particular' about his work, she feels he needs to take on more roles, just as Anupam did during his career's peak. 'Anupam has done all the films because he had to earn money and take care of the house and the family. Sikandar is a laat saheb... but things don't work that way,' she pointed out. Kirron acknowledged she had the 'luxury of choice' because Anupam bore the financial responsibility, a privilege she believes Sikandar cannot afford if he wants to keep working consistently. Kirron Kher drops a picture from a lunch date with her husband Anupam Kher; fans say 'You both are looking cute' Anupam Kher on the 'void' of not having children Married since 1985, Kirron and Anupam Kher do not have children together. Sikandar is Kirron's son from her first marriage to Gautam Berry, and was four years old when Anupam entered his life. Speaking on Raj Shamani's podcast, Anupam admitted feeling a 'void' over not having biological children, revealing that Kirron 'could not conceive' and later faced complications when she did. 'I was too busy making it big,' he said, but added that Sikandar 'is still fine for me,' emphasising their strong bond despite the circumstances.

'I hate this so much': Frustrated Rishabh Pant shares injury struggle on social media

NEW DELHI: Team India wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant has been ruled out of action since the fourth Test of India's recently concluded Anderson-Tendulkar Trophy series against England, and his absence looks set to continue for some time following a painful toe fracture sustained during the match. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. The southpaw picked up the injury when an attempt to reverse sweep off Chris Woakes struck his right toe, forcing him to play through discomfort before being sidelined. Poll Do you think Rishabh Pant will make a successful comeback after his injury? Absolutely! Maybe, depends on recovery. Uncertain, injuries are tough. On Wednesday, Pant took to Instagram to vent his frustration, posting a picture of his plastered foot on his story with the blunt caption: 'I hate this so much.' But while the frustration is real, Pant has found a lighter way to pass the time — in the kitchen. Earlier in the day, the 27-year-old shared a playful social media video of himself baking pizzas, limping slightly yet grinning in a chef's apron as he kneaded dough and arranged toppings. 'Ghar pe to kuch banaya nahi hai, yaha pizza bana raha hai' ('I haven't cooked anything at home, and here I am making pizza'), Pant quipped, adding an Italian flourish to his caption: 'Impasto, salsa, forno… and me.' In the clip, Pant told viewers, 'Today I'm going to show you how to make pizza… I think I'm gonna make vegetarian pizza. With the truffle? Yeah, with the truffle.' Ever the entertainer, he joked mid-session: 'Can I use your scissor, please? Where is it? Pizza is getting ready. I'm going to wait for it. Very hot in here, boys and girls.' He signed off with his trademark chuckle: 'That's the only thing I can do with a broken foot right now. Mother must be thinking — ghar pe to kuch banaya nahi hai, yaha pizza bana raha hai.' Watch: While his comeback date remains uncertain, Pant's latest posts prove that even in recovery, he's keeping his spirits high.
