Amitabh Bachchan loses cool at paparazzo for filming him outside Mumbai home Jalsa: ‘Mat karo'. Watch
In the undated video that surfaced on social media, he can be seen dressed in a white kurta-pyjama and an off-white shawl, as well as black spectacles, with his mobile phone in one hand. Amitabh was spotted stepping out of his house and getting agitated at the cameraman for filming him. He said, 'Aye, nahi. Ye mat nikalo, band karo (Hey, don't do it, stop it)!' — asking him to stop recording immediately.
In the comments section, many users joked that he was copying his wife Jaya Bachchan, who is known for her public outbursts on the media. Amitabh, in contrast, is known for maintaining a cordial relationship with the media and paparazzi, and hence, his anger was quite unexpected. However, in the past, many celebrities have highlighted similar situations, requesting fans and paps to respect their privacy and ask for their permission before switching on the camera.

John Cena Reflects On Post-Attitude Era Challenge, Credits WWE's Revival To This Man
John Cena is arguably the most recognized name in World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). However, before the rise of Cena, WWE had undergone challenging times in terms of its growth and popularity, particularly after the end of the Attitude Era. Then a part of WWF (World Wrestling Federation), the era, which existed in the late 1990s and early 2000s, featured stunning adult-oriented storylines, spearheaded by stars like "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, The Rock and Triple H. However, after the departures of Steve Austina and The Rock, WWE's popularity suffered a dip, before being resurrected by the likes of Cena and late wrestler Eddie Guerrero. Cena paid tribute to Guerrero in a recent fan interaction, highlighting the latter's role in bringing WWE back to the top. "WWE went through a boom in the Attitude Era and then all those guys, we fired Stone Cold. The Rock left, The Undertaker got hurt, we changed the name, the XFL failed. There was a lot of upside down stuff. We started SmackDown and it had Kurt Angle as its anchor, but we brought Eddie Guerrero and a bunch of (new guys) like Edge and me and a bunch of other new guys and people trying to find their way," John Cena said, speaking during the FAN EXPO in Denver. "Eddie was our champion for for a certain period of time. And he used to tell me that it is the night when the fewest people show up that you have to work 10 times as hard because the presence in that area isn't as strong," Cena further said, hailing Guerrero. The Attitude Era was followed by the toned-down Ruthless Aggression Era, where the likes of Eddie Guerrero played a leading role. Eventually, John Cena rose to popularity, taking advantage of the platform built by Guerrero and co.

Kaun Banega Crorepati Throwback: When late actor Dinesh Phadnis aka Fredericks tried to help CID team answer question worth Rs 6,40,000
Kaun Banega Crorepati has been one of the longest-running reality shows in India, enjoyed by all age groups. Hosted by megastar Amitabh Bachchan, the show has seen 16 successful seasons, and now the 17th season will be launched soon. Ahead of the release of the 17th season, let's revisit the time when CID actors Shivaji Satam, Dayanand Shetty and Aditya Srivastava graced the show as guests. During their presence, the CID team also sought help from their co-star and late actor Dinesh Phadnis aka Fredericks. When late actor Dinesh Phadnis tried to help CID team When Shivaji Satam aka ACP Pradyuman and Aditya Srivastava aka Abhijeet were sitting on the hot seat, Amitabh Bachchan asked them the 8th question worth Rs 6,40,000. The question was: According to the Indian epics, who among the following did not meet his death at the hands of another? A - Vidura B- Kumbhakarna C- Shravan Kumar D- Putana Correct Answer: Vidura As Satam and Srivastava were sceptical about the right answer, they decided to seek help from their friend and used a 'Phone a friend' lifeline and dialled Dinesh Phadnis aka Fredericks. Big B called Phadnis, but the latter assumed that Dayanand and Aditya were joking with him about being Amitabh Bachchan. The veteran actor informed Dinesh about ACP Pradyuman and Abhijeet being unable to answer the question. Dinesh had 30 seconds, and by the time Aditya explained the question, the time ended without Dinesh answering the question. Shivaji Satam and Aditya Srivastava reached the conclusion that option A- Vidura is the correct answer. The answer was right, and so the CID team won Rs 6,40,000. The episode ended with this question. Before Aditya joined Satam on the hot seat, Dayanand Shetty was seen sitting with the veteran actor and answering questions by Amitabh Bachchan. Like the CID team, several other celebrity guests were seen on the show playing the interesting quiz with Mr Bachchan. Speaking about the upcoming season, Kaun Banega Crorepati 17 is set to premiere from August 11 at 9 PM on Sony TV.

Taylor Swift's 20-Year Career To Be Explored In New Channel 4 Series
Channel 4 announced a two-part documentary on Taylor Swift, titled Taylor, exploring her career, transformation, and cultural impact. A new two-part documentary series centred around global music icon Taylor Swift has been officially announced by Channel 4. Titled Taylor (working title), the project promises to offer a closer look into the pop sensation's two-decade-long career and her rise to cultural prominence. The series aims to unpack the complexities of Swift's transformation from a teenage country singer to one of the most influential and highest-grossing artists of all time. Channel 4 confirmed the project following months of speculation, calling Swift a 'global phenomenon" and promising a fresh take through rare archival material, commentary from insiders, and perspectives from fans and experts alike. 'Taylor Swift is an unprecedentedly powerful 21st century voice for women and young people," said director Guy King. 'Under the microscope of social media since the earliest days of MySpace and Tumblr, she came of age during a new feminist wave. With her fame came controversy, which she so skilfully wrestled to the floor. We're excited to tell her story." The documentary, produced by Sandpaper Films (known for A Deadly American Marriage), is being helmed by King, whose past credits include The Fall and Bombing Brighton. Jessica Brady serves as the producer, with Lina Caicedo on board as archive producer. Executive producers include Susannah Price and Henry Singer, while BAFTA-winning editor Martin Thompson is leading post-production. Blue Ant International will handle global sales. Channel 4's exploration of Swift's journey comes in the wake of her record-breaking Eras Tour and the critical success of her Netflix documentary Miss Americana. With over 20 years in the music industry, Swift has earned widespread acclaim and become the first billionaire whose fortune is primarily built on music. The series will examine not only the highs and lows of her public life but also the loyal fanbase she's cultivated and the broader impact she's had on the music industry and popular culture.
