Will Pawan Kalyan resume shooting for Ustaad Bhagat Singh in June? Here's what we know
Fans are eagerly awaiting actor-politician Pawan Kalyan 's comeback in theatres, and according to new reports, one of his long-pending ventures, 'Ustaad Bhagat Singh', is finally back on track, with the shoot scheduled to recommence in the second week of June. Ustaad Bhagat Singh shooting According to India Today, director Harish Shankar shared that filming for 'Ustaad Bhagat Singh' will restart next week. Although the production house has unveiled a new poster hinting at the film's revival, they have yet to confirm and announce an official restart date. Industry sources indicate that Pawan is expected to join the crew on 12 June. The movie reunites the successful duo of Pawan Kalyan and Harish Shankar, who previously delivered a box office hit with Gabbar Singh. Hari Hara Veera Mallu | Song - Taara Taara (Lyrical) Sreeleela's role Earlier reports suggested that actress Sreeleela would be starring opposite Pawan Kalyan as the female lead, and she is set to begin shooting for the movie on 10 June. The music is being composed by national award-winning music director Devi Sri Prasad . The film's progress has been slow, largely due to Pawan Kalyan's political responsibilities, including his role as Deputy Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh. While there was widespread speculation that Ustaad Bhagat Singh would be a remake of Thalapathy Vijay's Theri, fresh reports have now clarified that it will be an original story.

Teachers meet Ludhiana DC, submit memorandum over long-standing demands
Ludhiana: Representatives of teachers' unions met deputy commissioner Himanshu Jain and submitted a memorandum regarding persistent issues being faced by teachers of govt schools in the state. The protest is being organised to highlight issues being faced by school teachers, both financial and departmental, which the state govt has allegedly failed to address despite repeated appeals. Teacher leaders, representing various unions such as Democratic Teachers Front (DTF), ETT 6635 Union, 4161 Master Cadre Union, and 2392 Teachers Union, met the DC. They submitted a memorandum addressed to the Punjab chief minister, outlining a list of pending demands and informing the administration about the upcoming protest. At the heart of their grievances is the job insecurity faced by thousands of teachers. Over 3,700 teachers from the Master Cadre and nearly 900 English teachers have been excluded from the final merit lists, placing their existing services and future at risk. Moreover, the issuance of show-cause notices regarding termination of services to these teachers has caused significant anxiety in the education community. The unions are demanding that these notices be immediately revoked and that all affected teachers be granted job protection. Similarly, educators promoted from ETT to Master Cadre and further to lecturer posts are calling for transparent, unbiased transfer policies, especially for special category teachers. They have demanded the immediate resumption of the 2025 general transfer process. Speaking about the issue, Vikram Dev Singh, president, DTF, said the tardy promotion process leads to inconvenience to teachers. Transfer policy is not followed for transfers. Transfers of teachers should be completed before the session starts, but it not done. Already delayed, this time of summer break is also a good time to begin the transfer process, so that teachers can reach the right schools by the time schools resume after summer break, however, generally, it is not being done and those with political approach rather get deputations they want, rather than following the proper channel. Another major concern is the delay in promotions across all teaching and non-teaching cadres — from ETT to principals. Teachers are urging that all pending promotions be conducted promptly and fairly under the 75% promotion quota. They also demand that all vacant positions be openly declared before such promotions are finalised. The protestors are also advocating for the regularisation of contractual and ad-hoc teachers, including computer teachers, merit-based appointees, associate teachers, and other temporary staff working under various schemes. According to them, delays in issuing regularisation orders have led to discrimination and financial loss. Teachers are also pushing for the restoration of the old pension scheme, rural and border area allowances, and the annual career progression (ACP) scheme, all of which they say have been unfairly withdrawn. The warned that they would carry out protest on state-level protest June 11 unless their demands were met.

HC: Specify objectionable scenes in film
Chennai: Madras high court on Wednesday questioned how the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) could deny a censor certificate for the Tamil movie 'Manushi', produced by Vetrimaaran, without specifying the objectionable scenes that could be edited. Justice N Anand Venkatesh directed the CBFC to specify the objectionable scenes, visuals, and dialogues by June 16 or to watch the movie with the producer and point out the objectionable portions to him. The film, starring Andrea, is directed by Gopi Nainar. It is set to revolve around a woman who is arrested on false charges and her plight as an undertrial prisoner. Vetrimaaran moved the court, alleging that the censor board was refusing to certify his film and that he was not allowed to voice his opinion before the CBFC made its decision. In March, a representation was made to the board to form a new committee comprising human rights activists to re-examine the film, which was not considered by the board, he said. The CBFC denied certification to the movie on the grounds that it went against the integrity of the state, contained scenes that were contemptuous, defamed govt policies, portrayed stereotypes leading to a north/south divide, and had many scenes that were against the interests of the country. Music director Ilaiyaraaja composed the music for the film, and veteran actor Nassar played supporting roles in the movie.
