Guns N' Roses to Perform in India after 12-Year Absence
Rock legends Guns N' Roses will return to India after more than a decade as part of their global tour.
The concert, produced and promoted by BookMyShow Live in partnership with Live Nation, will take place at Mumbai's Mahalaxmi Racecourse on May 17.
The show marks the 'Sweet Child O' Mine' and 'November Rain' band's first appearance in the country since 2012.
It is part of a sprawling global tour that kicks off in Incheon, South Korea, before heading to Japan, India, the Middle East, and then an extensive European leg that includes stops in Portugal, Spain, Italy, Germany, the U.K., and multiple eastern European countries.
Various special guests will join different legs of the tour, including Public Enemy, Rival Sons, members of the Sex Pistols, including Steve Jones, Paul Cook, and Glen Matlock, and Frank Carter.
Guns N' Roses, consisting of Axl Rose on vocals and piano, Slash on lead guitar, and Duff McKagan on bass, have sold over 100 million units worldwide.
The group's 1987 debut 'Appetite for Destruction' remains the best-selling U.S. debut album ever, while their 2016-2019 'Not In This Lifetime… Tour' ranked as the fourth-highest grossing concert tour of all time.
The band continues to maintain a strong streaming presence with approximately 24 million monthly listeners on Spotify.

The Yacht on the Amalfi Coast Edit (Menswear)
A menswear guide for the Amalfi Coast yacht agenda It's not often that I find myself musing about a man's sense of style. It usually takes a transformative phase in his life, like a new girlfriend, for him to finally part with the tight black t-shirts that, while peak fashion in his eyes, are objectively a disservice to the rest of society. Though this is not entirely the man's, specifically the Egyptian man's, fault. It should be entirely blamed on a high degree of fashion naivety and a deep fixation on the players of Ahly FC's wardrobes. I therefore consider it my civic duty to intervene and save Egyptian society from this entirely preventable aesthetic offense. Because somewhere deep within the sweltering heat of Cairo is a man packing for his anniversary trip with his wife on the Amalfi Coast. Meanwhile, she is booking a romantic dinner on one of the yachts lining the Marina, blissfully unaware that the tight fabric of his t-shirt intended to accentuate his recent 'cut' will massively clash with her epic new Missoni set for which she has been saving up for over the past three months. And what a tragedy that would be, for both his wife and the reputation of the Egyptian man's style on the global stage. Egypt, and stylish wives, I have your back. I will save you. What follows is the reparation needed for the irreversible damage done by Mohamed Ramadan's metallic gold bra on the Coachella stage… LOOK 1: The perfect look for surviving the Amalfi Coast—and browsing four boutiques with zero complaints alongside your wife. Because nothing says 'I've healed' like trading in tight shirts for textured knits and shorts that don't scream beach club DJ. Zara | Textured polo shirt: Eleventy | Bandana- print swim shorts in blue Golden goose | Ballstar sneaker LOOK 2: He's not overdressed, he's 'European relaxed.' He'll nod seriously during the sommelier's speech, pretend to taste hints of oak, then order whatever his wife tells him to. Homme Plisse Issey Miyake | MC JANUARY pants in Midnight Blue (N.76) Zara | BASIC WASHED BOXY FIT T-SHIRT in oyster white Pull & Bear | Short sleeve striped STWD shirt Golden Goose | Ball Star sneakers Beaulares | ALCOTT LONGSLEEVE POLO option #2 LOOK 3: He's wearing hand-embroidered Bode shorts and a pistachio linen shirt. Not because he's trying to impress, but because he 'just threw something on.' The perfectly curated casually chic look for an epic Italian early lunch on the yacht. Bode | Rosefinch shorts KAI | Pistachio Semi Colar Linen Shirt Maison Margiela | Replica sneakers in coffee brown LOOK 4: A masterclass in modern nonchalance; relaxed, refined, and refusing to overdo it. Uniqlo | Linen Blend Relaxed Pants in Natural Nude Project | Rosel Football Polo Knit Navy Nude Project | Sleepy Shirt Green option 2 Tom Ford | DAX SUNGLASSES Golden Goose | Ballstar sneaker LOOK 5: Vintage soul, modern rhythm: the stripes flirt, the jewellery hums, and the whole thing walks like a curated mood board. Obey | Classic Baggy Stripe Pants in Pelican Multi Polo Ralph Lauren | Mesh Short Sleeve Polo in Canopy Olive Nialaya Jewelry | Fleur-de-Lis embossed cord bracelet Dries Van Noten | Suede sneakers in Tan LOOK 6: It's a look for coffee runs when parked at the marina, that then turn into gallery stops that turn into dinner plans. Theory | Raffi Twill Pant in Bark Polo Ralph Lauren | Short Sleeve Crewneck T-Shirt in Taylor Heather Uniqlo | Premium Linen Shirt Striped in Gray Nialaya Jewelry | pendant bracelet Converse | Star Player 76

Brad Pitt, Channing Tatum Team On Isle Of Man Movie, Docuseries
Yara Sameh Following one of the more unique auctions the industry has seen in some time, Amazon MGM Studios has landed a film and docuseries package on the legendary Isle of Man Tourist Trophy Race with movie stars Brad Pitt and Channing Tatum involved. Tatum is attached to star in the film about the motorcycle races, which will be directed by Dog director Reid Carolin, who also wrote the script with Jason Keller and Bryan Johnson. It will be produced by Tatum and Carolin's Free Association, Pitt's Plan B and Entertainment 360's Guymon Casady and Jason Keller. The docuseries was filmed during last year's TT races with never-before-seen access to the riders and the races due to an exclusive partnership between the producers and the event promoters. It was produced by the same group, along with pre-eminent sports documentary producer Box to Box Films and Mediawan — the leading independent European studio and majority stakeholder of Plan B — with the participation of Entourage Ventures. Plot details remain under wraps, but the scope and history of the legendary race have all the notes of an epic feature film. Long before Formula 1, World Endurance and MotoGP, there was the Isle of Man TT. As the world's oldest continuously running motorsport event, it remains a one-of-a-kind spectacle. With riders pushing man and machine to the edge at nearly 200 mph, the TT represents the pinnacle of sporting endeavor and the relentless pursuit of glory. The never-before-seen docuseries is a 4×45-minute cinematic, character-driven series where riders chase their dreams and embrace life to its fullest. Through intimate moments, the series explore what drives these extreme riders to take such risks. The series looks into the consequences of this commitment, not only for them but for those around them. It is not just a thrilling adventure experienced through these extraordinary individuals but a deep dive into what sometimes drives us as human beings. For most of its century-long history, the Isle of Man TT was an event experienced only by dedicated motorbike enthusiasts who made the pilgrimage to the island or tuned in via radio. However, the 2022 launch of livestreaming through the TT's OTT platform, TT+, marked a new era, offering full coverage of every qualifying session and race. Combined with an enhanced social media strategy, this shift has spurred greater public interest, with online searches for the event doubling over the past two years. The film and docuseries represent key pillars in the development of a major franchise set to expand across a 360-degree strategy, building on the success of major IPs developed by the talented creators of the Mediawan group and embraced by audiences worldwide such as Call My Agent, The Count of Monte Cristo or Miraculous. Tatum and Carolin have had strong ties going back to when the two launched the Magic Mike franchise that Tatum starred in, Carolin penned and both produced. The film would mark the second film Carolin has directed following the hit MGM feature Dog, which Tatum also starred in and produced. As for Pitt and Plan B, they seem to have a strong feel for racing films these days as the upcoming Warner Bros. and Apple pic F1 bows this month. Pitt stars in the pic, which already is earning strong buzz. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Sports Former Al Zamalek Player Ibrahim Shika Passes away after Long Battle with Cancer Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Sports Neymar Announced for Brazil's Preliminary List for 2026 FIFA World Cup Qualifiers News Prime Minister Moustafa Madbouly Inaugurates Two Indian Companies Arts & Culture New Archaeological Discovery from 26th Dynasty Uncovered in Karnak Temple Business Fear & Greed Index Plummets to Lowest Level Ever Recorded amid Global Trade War Arts & Culture Zahi Hawass: Claims of Columns Beneath the Pyramid of Khafre Are Lies News Flights suspended at Port Sudan Airport after Drone Attacks News Shell Unveils Cost-Cutting, LNG Growth Plan
