'Bahar jao': Alia Bhatt confronts photographers crossing into private space. Watch video
Synopsis Alia Bhatt recently confronted paparazzi who entered her private building premises while she was heading for a pickleball session in Mumbai. In a video that went viral, she firmly asked the photographers to step outside, reminding them that the property was private. The incident sparked widespread online support, with fans backing her stance on boundaries and privacy. Earlier, she attended a screening of War 2 with her mother, Soni Razdan, where the post-credits scene teased her upcoming spy thriller Alpha. Alia Bhatt Draws Line on Privacy After Paparazzi Enter Her Building Alia Bhatt, often praised for her warm interactions with the media, recently took a firm stand against paparazzi who crossed into private property without permission. The incident occurred when the actor arrived for a pickleball session in Mumbai and noticed photographers stepping inside her building premises to take a video circulating online, Alia is seen exiting her car and firmly instructing the photographers to leave. She reminded them that the building was private property and asked them to step outside. Despite her repeated requests, the photographers stayed for several moments before she proceeded indoors. The actor's frustration has sparked discussions about privacy and boundaries for public figures, with many social media users agreeing that she was justified in asserting her space. View this post on Instagram A post shared by F I L M Y G Y A N (@filmygyan) Following the video's release, comments poured in from fans defending her stance. Many pointed out that media professionals should respect physical boundaries, especially in residential areas. One user remarked that creating noise or disturbance within a society often leads to complaints, while another stressed that without boundaries, such incidents could escalate into safety issues. Others noted that basic courtesy and common sense should guide such interactions. Earlier that day, Alia attended a screening of War 2 with her mother, Soni Razdan. The high-octane action film, currently running in theatres, has received mixed reviews. However, its post-credits scene drew considerable buzz as it offered the first teaser for Yash Raj Films' upcoming spy thriller, Alpha. The teaser featured Bobby Deol marking a young girl's hand with the emblem of a covert agency. Fans believe this hints at a younger version of Alia's character, suggesting a storyline that follows the shift from mentor to rival. She will share the screen in Alpha with Sharvari Wagh, in what is expected to be one of her most physically demanding roles. Alia's upcoming work includes leading Alpha, part of the same spy universe as War and Pathaan, scheduled for release in December 2025. She will also star in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's period romance Love & War, alongside Ranbir Kapoor and Vicky Kaushal. In addition, she continues her work as a producer under Eternal Sunshine Productions, with a new Netflix project in development.

Sari trader pursuing acting dream duped out of 1.71cr
Surat: A starry-eyed sari trader from the city who thought he was pursuing his dream of becoming an actor was allegedly duped out of Rs 1.71 crore by four persons from Delhi, who convinced him to send them large sums of money to secure high-profile acting work for him — in a web series, a TV serial and a music video. The victim had first contacted the accused on seeing an advertisement for portfolio photography on Instagram. Over two years, they got him to send them money on various pretexts and even called the victim to Delhi and Mumbai for shoots to fortify the deception. Nearly three years after his first contact with them, when they did not get him any acting work and he had paid them an eye-watering Rs 1.71 crore, he filed a complaint for cheating with Althan police. Rahul Rathod, 32, owns a sari trading firm in Surat. In Oct 2022, he saw an advertisement on Instagram for the Delhi-based 'Dream Maker Studio', offering portfolio shooting. He provided his details and got a call from one Alka Thakur two days later, offering to shoot his portfolio and calling him to Delhi for the shoot. Rathod went to Dream Maker Studio where he met Alka Thakur Baroniya, Arman Khan alias Waqar Alam, Shiva Thakur alias Mohit and Vivek Rajput alias Rahul Roy. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The Most Beautiful Female Athletes Right Now Undo They carried out a photoshoot on Oct 17, 2022 and charged Rathod Rs 5,000 for it. The FIR states that days later Alka called Rathod again and told him they were launching a web series for which he had been selected. They demanded Rs 22,000 as 'selection security' which Rathod paid. The next day, Alka told Rathod that as he was 'a fresher' he would have to pay Rs 1 lakh more as 'security', which he did. On another call days she said he was picked for a music video and got him to transfer Rs 8 lakh. Rathod sent the money over several transactions in Oct and Dec 2022. Alka later told Rathod they wanted to launch him on 'a big platform through a reality show' and asked for Rs 15 lakh. Rathod transferred the money by RTGS and other modes. Rahul Roy later told Rathod that he would get a lead role in a serial on the Colors channel, which would pay him Rs 90,000 to Rs 95,000 per day for a year. Roy asked him to pay Rs 70 lakh for the lead role — ostensibly to cover his expenses in Mumbai for a year. Rathod transferred the money to Arman Khan and Shiva Thakur, as instructed by Roy and Alka Thakur. Another shoot was later conducted in Delhi. Roy told Rathod he should not tell the Colors channel officials that he was married. Days later, Roy called Rathod saying the channel officials had discovered Rathod was married and had fined Alka Rs 3 crore. Alka told Rathod that she would pay Rs 2.5 crore, but Rathod had to pay her the remaining Rs 50 lakh. Rathod sent the money in two transactions through the Surat angadia firm S Babulal. The accused promised the victim various roles beside actors and influencers such as Dipak Joshi, Akruti Agrawal and Sumbul Tokir, among others. Over two years, they took Rs 1.71 crore from Rathod. BOX Victim took all types of loans As the victim dreamed of becoming an actor, he fulfilled all the demands of the accused. After running out of money, he took loans, including personal loans, gold loans, business loans, and top-up loans. He paid the money to the accused by modes such as RTGS, UPI, cheques, angadia payments and in cash. Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).

Embracing coding and culture: The humanities find a home in IITs
These shifts raise more fundamental questions. What do we mean by 'valuable' knowledge? Who has the privilege to decide what counts as literature, or art, or insight? For instance, take the Nobel Prize in Literature. When Dario Fo, the Italian playwright, won in 1997, and Bob Dylan in 2016, many critics baulked. They were not 'real' writers, some argued. While others saw it differently. After all, Fo and Dylan were both storytellers in a more encompassing way. Their stories were never supposed to just be read; they were meant to be heard, felt, and performed, like the epics of Homer and Kalidasa, the plays of Shakespeare. Maybe this was a return to the roots of literature. This very rethinking is happening in the humanities classrooms of IITs. Scholars are not only analysing printed texts; they are exploring how Instagram captions and hashtags shape public discourse; how digital platforms like YouTube, Facebook become the repository of language, art, and practice, indigenous or otherwise; or how algorithms control what we read, and how digital archives are reshaping our cultural memory. Discussing interdisciplinarity is much easier than doing it. Conventionally, research funding happened horizontally, but now momentum is building towards the diagonal, raising the question: what role should academics (and academic institutions) play in an evolving world characterised by technological acceleration and cultural upheaval? For decades, STEM disciplines were measured by quantifiable outputs: patents, products, and market impact. But that feels increasingly small in the wake of climate change, AI ethics, and social disconnection. Hence, the questions we face today are not only scientific; they are also social, cultural, and moral. What is emerging within these IITs is a conscious reframing for seeing code and computation in the larger context of history, ethics, language, and social practice. As India endeavours to establish itself as a globally relevant knowledge hub, this interdisciplinary current that is developing within the IITs is likely to be one of its greatest assets beyond metadata and computation. These institutions are not only edifying engineers and scientists but also training the next wave of thinkers who will grapple with the ethical, social, and political implications of their work. The growth of interdisciplinary research in the IITs will not simply depend on institutional changes, but is contingent upon the gradual shift in academic outlook and engagement. Moving in this direction will require institutional and intellectual courage to move beyond the comforts and legacy of established models, and seek a more inclusive, responsive way of 'knowing.' However, should the preliminary signs be considered, the journey has already begun. References Frodeman, Robert, Julie Thompson Klein, and Roberto C. S. Pacheco, eds.
