While Akshay and Twinkle posed for the paps, they asked Nitara to go ahead with their bodyguard. However, as one cameraman tried to click Nitara's picture, Akshay stopped him, by lovingly holding him from behind.
The 'Khiladi' actor also clicked a selfie with a paparazzo when requested for it, before telling them bye and moving ahead.
On work front, Akshay was recently seen in 'Housefull 5'. The film has crossed Rs 150 crore at the box office and is doing extremely well.

Salman Khan's Sikandar Makers Face Rs 91 Cr Piracy Loss, File Insurance Claim: Report

Last Updated: In a surprising twist, the pirated version of Sikandar contained scenes not included in the final theatrical cut. Salman Khan's latest film Sikandar has suffered a massive financial blow after being leaked online just hours after its release. According to a report by Bollywood Hungama, the piracy resulted in losses amounting to approximately Rs 91 crore for the production team. An insider told the publication, 'An audit was commissioned to assess the extent of the leak and the resulting impact on revenue. Ernst & Young (EnY) submitted a comprehensive report that pegged the loss at approximately Rs. 91 crore." The audit reportedly measured the difference between projected and actual earnings following the leak. Advanced tracking tools were used to monitor illegal downloads and streams, calculating the financial damage caused to the film's theatrical and digital revenue. 'Such audits often include a blend of data from ticketing platforms, distributor reports, and forensic tracing of piracy dissemination," the source added. 'The Rs. 91 crore figure wasn't arbitrary – it is rooted in a loss of potential theatrical and digital revenue." In a surprising twist, the pirated version of Sikandar contained scenes not included in the final theatrical cut. These included sequences such as medical students meeting Sikandar in Dharavi, an extended flashback highlighting Kamaruddin's health issues, and a heartfelt conversation where Sikandar learns about Rashmika Mandanna's character's dream of becoming a lawyer. The leaked version also included a pre-interval segment showing the challenges faced by Sikandar's team, a deleted moment of Vaidehi's suicide attempt, and an emotional cab scene with vadams. The inclusion of these unreleased scenes in the pirated version strongly indicates that the leak occurred after the film received its CBFC clearance. With losses piling up, the makers are reportedly filing an insurance claim to recover damages. The situation raises serious concerns about content security in the digital age, especially for high-budget Bollywood films. First Published: June 17, 2025, 23:58 IST

Alappuzha Gymkhana Review: Naslen's sports comedy is a witty tale of underdogs which misses out on few punches

Alappuzha Gymkhana starring Naslen in the lead role hit the theaters on April 10, 2025. 2 months after its theatrical release, the film is available for streaming on SonyLIV. If you're interested in watching the movie on OTT, here's the Pinkvilla review you need to check out. The Plot Alappuzha Gymkhana features the story of Jojo Johnson and his gang who have just completed their 12th-grade board examination. After learning that most of them have failed in exams, the gang decides to secure college admission through sports quota. In hopes of the same, the amateur youngsters decide to enter the world of boxing, considering it the easiest route. How the gang manages to secure a coach and whether they succeed in the task form the rest of the film. The Good Alappuzha Gymkhana isn't your typical sports comedy movie set in the world of boxing. While it is not so much about the sport but the youngsters, the cinematic venture feels like a coming-of-age comedy drama. The film starts strong with actors like Naslen, Ganapathi, Lukman Avaran, Anagha Maya Ravi, and Sandeep Pradeep holding a strong ground. The natural charm these actors have and the ability to surrender to the characters are strongly evident. Much like other Khalid Rahman films, Alappuzha Gymkhana doesn't rely a lot on the story but rather the narration. While from the outset it seems it would be your typical underdog story, the sports comedy doesn't tell the tale of heroes rising to glory but more about wayward youngsters finding their path. The characters of the film aren't people who develop a passion towards boxing, but those who stumble upon it by chance. More importantly, this film isn't about who wins or loses, nor is it about a single character, making it stand out from others in the same genre. From a technical point of view, Alappuzha Gymkhana offers rich visuals by Jimshi Khalid and brilliant dialogues by Ratheesh Ravi. Additionally, Vishnu Vijay's musical compositions are a great aspect. The Bad Alappuzha Gymkhana may hold strong for its narrative, but it offers little from a story angle. The film starts off relying on the characters, the relationship they share, and strong emotions that hold them together. However, coming to the second half, Alappuzha Gymkhana stumbles with its tone shift. With stakes rising, the sports film shifts the tone towards the final match. While this was expected all along, the movie does not have the same balance it once had in the first half. The character arcs fall down like a house of cards, with more focus just on the main leads, unlike how it was up until that moment. Despite having a runtime of 2 hours and 30 minutes, it feels unreal that such aspects were not explored properly. The Performance Alappuzha Gymkhana features Premalu fame Naslen, Ganapati S Poduval, Lukman Avaran, Anagha Maya Ravi, Sandeep Pradeep, and many more in key roles. While Naslen does what he does best and offers little to no new shades in his acting, he must be lauded for his insane body transformation. However, it was Ganapati, Anagha Maya Ravi, and Lukman who made quite some attention-grabbing moments for viewers. Watch Alappuzha Gymkhana trailer: The Verdict Alappuzha Gymkhana is unlike your usual sports comedy film, especially concerning boxing. If you like something inventive and emotional, do watch the Naslen starrer on OTT.
