After Netflix's 'Kaala Paani,' Prime Video's show 'Guilty Minds' season two cancelled. The reason is budgetary issues that has led to the cancellation of quite a few season twos.
Talking about Kaala Paani first, a source shared, 'There were budget issues that came up and couldn't be resolved despite several back-and-forth meetings. After multiple discussions, it was mutually decided that Kaala Paani 2 couldn't move forward, keeping in mind various factors, the budget being one of them. The crew was prepping for preproduction, which was to begin in May, but they have now been informed of the cancellation.'

For Guilty Minds 2
'Developing the second season was almost done when the team was informed that Prime Video is pulling the plug. The reason given was budget issues; it has been tough for shows to get commissioned and tougher even for relatively medium budget shows to break out,' sources told The Hollywood Reporter.
What Shriya Pilgonkar said about the show
'I can't believe it's been two years since Guilty Minds released. It's a gift that keeps giving. For me, the process of working on that series was transformational as an actor. And it's so rare to find a character as beautiful and complex as Kashaf Quaze that I truly learnt a lot from that experience.' It was the first time that she had played a lawyer on an OTT series."

'Lonely' Prince Harry in California has only bodyguards for company
Prince Harry may be living in a $14 million Italian-style mansion in California with his wife Meghan Markle and their two children, but life behind closed doors is reportedly far from perfect for the Duke of Sussex. According to NewsNation, which cited unnamed sources close to the royal, Prince Harry is feeling 'desperately lonely,' cut off from long-time friends and family, and struggling to form close relationships in the US. 'He doesn't really have any real friends in the area except for polo star Nacho Figueras, and Nacho travels constantly for matches," a friend told the outlet. 'He spends a lot of his time chilling with his bodyguards." Though Harry remains close to a few old friends from the UK, such as Guy Pelly and Mark Dyer, the time difference and distance have made regular contact difficult. 'There's no one else for him to hang out with besides Nacho, Meghan, and the children," the source added. The report also said that since stepping down from royal duties in 2020, Harry's social circle has grown smaller. 'It's hard to forge deep friendships when you're older especially when you're wary of people leaking things to the press," one insider noted. A friend even compared Harry's current situation to that of his great-great-uncle Edward VIII, who gave up the throne for love and lived abroad. 'It's like history is repeating itself," the friend said. Meanwhile, Meghan Markle reportedly wishes Harry could move on. 'Meghan wishes her husband could feel less burdened by the past and more present in the life they've built together,' a source told *People* magazine. Prince Harry's Life in California Compared to Edward VIII's Exile Prince Harry's current situation is drawing comparisons to that of his great-great-uncle, Edward VIII, who abdicated the British throne to marry Wallis Simpson and spent the rest of his life abroad, largely distanced from the royal family. A source told NewsNation, 'It's like history is repeating itself,' referring to Harry's estrangement from King Charles and Prince William and his life away from royal duties in the United States. However, unlike Edward and Wallis, Harry and Meghan have remained in the public eye through media projects, including Netflix shows, books, and public appearances. The Duke of Sussex is said to be struggling with loneliness, having left behind most of his social circle in the UK. Though still close to long-time friends like Guy Pelly and Mark Dyer—who also have American wives—they are based in Texas and Virginia, making regular meetings rare. 'It's harder to forge deep friendships with people when you're older, especially if you're wary they may speak to the press,' a friend was quoted as saying. Harry is also reportedly upset about delays in securing British passports for his children, Archie and Lilibet. According to reports, he even sought advice from his uncle, Earl Spencer, about possibly adopting his late mother Princess Diana's surname. While he ultimately did not go with 'Spencer', the Sussexes are said to have dropped 'Mountbatten-Windsor' and now quietly use 'Sussex' as their family name. A source told People magazine, 'Meghan wishes her husband could feel less burdened by the past and more present in the life they've built together.'

'Anora' star Mikey Madison was almost in Star Wars? Here's what we know
Mikey Madison Mikey Madison , the breakout sensation of 'Anora' is quickly becoming one of the most in-demand names in the film industry. With an Oscar under her belt and accolades like a BAFTA and Independent Spirit Award in her name, the 26-year-old actress is now a top contender for high-profile projects. But in an alternate timeline, Madison could have been headed not to the gritty streets of indie cinema but to the stars literally. As per a recent Hollywood Reporter interview, Madison was in serious consideration for a role in Shawn Levy 's upcoming project, which is also expected to star Ryan Gosling . While the casting never reached the final stages, sources revealed that discussions were indeed happening and the excitement around her potential involvement had been swirling for months within Hollywood circles. Levy and Lucasfilm's fresh take piqued Madison's interest Director Shawn Levy has been developing a new Star Wars installment with Lucasfilm since 2022. In a recent podcast appearance, Levy discussed his ambition to depart from the franchise's familiar tropes. 'I don't want to make a film that feels like a rerun,' he shared, hinting at a storyline that veers away from the timeline-heavy narratives fans have come to expect. That creative pivot seems to align perfectly with Madison's current artistic direction. After her breakthrough in 'Anora,' which debuted at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, she has been carefully choosing roles that challenge the norm. Her interest in this galaxy spanning saga may have stemmed from that same desire to explore unexpected, genre-defying stories. From Tarantino to horror hits, Madison's choices have always surprised Before 'Anora' catapulted her into the spotlight, Madison already had notable roles in films like Quentin Tarantino's 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood' and 2022's 'Scream 5.' Known for taking on unconventional, risk taking roles, her near miss with Star Wars adds another intriguing layer to her evolving career. She also considered a part in Alejandro Landes' Reptilia, a romantic fantasy involving a mermaid and a dental hygienist, according to The Hollywood Reporter. These varied choices prove Madison isn't afraid to venture into strange, bold territory, whether grounded in human emotion or set among the stars. Though the role didn't materialize, Madison's momentum shows no signs of slowing down. Check out our list of the latest Hindi , English , Tamil , Telugu , Malayalam , and Kannada movies .
