Lust Stories 3: Amar Kaushik To Join Vikramaditya Motwane, Kiran Rao, And Shakun Batra For The Upcoming Anthology
New Delhi:
The first season of Lust Stories was released on Netflix in 2018. It was a conversation starter for how intimacy was being represented through cinema, and it was well-received by the masses. It sheds light on the various perspectives involved in male and female desires—across race, gender, age, and social-economic strata.
The first Lust Stories Anthology film in 2018, had films made by directors Karan Johar, Zoya Akhtar, Anurag Kashyap, and Dibakar Banerjee. Lust Stories 2 was released in 2023 and had R Balki, Konkona Sen Sharma, Amit Ravindernath Sharma, and Sujoy Ghosh on board.
News18 Showsha has exclusively learnt that Lust Stories 3 is also currently in the works, and the shoot for the same is set to begin soon. Vikramaditya Motwane, Kiran Rao, and Shakun Batra have reportedly already been roped in, and now the last director to join the gang is Amar Kaushik.
Amar Kaushik who has been basking in the humongous success of Stree 3, is currently busy producing his next horror-comedy.
A close source told News18 Showsha, "It's true that Vikramaditya, Kiran, and Shakun will be directing three films for Lust Stories 3. The fourth addition is Amar Kaushik. This will be the first time that he'll be stepping out of the Maddock Films' horror-comedy universe. While much isn't known about his short film, one may expect comical elements as that's what Amar's storytelling has become popular for. He's one of the busiest filmmakers today and the creators of Lust Stories 3 were extremely keen on having him onboard."
On the work front, Amar Kaushik has a packed-up schedule as he's busy with Thama, led by Ayushmann Khurrana and Rashmika Mandanna. He also has Bhediya 2 and Stree 3 in the lineup.

Criminal Justice season 4: Big update on remaining episodes. When and where to watch
Criminal Justice Season 4 has all the ingredients of a gripping legal thriller—twists, tension, and the ever-reliable Pankaj Tripathi in top form. But while the courtroom drama is heating up on-screen, a very different drama is unfolding online. Fans, who were thrilled when the new season premiered on May 29, are now fuming over JioHotstar 's weekly release strategy, which drops just one new episode every Thursday. The first three episodes were released on May 29, however, from episode 4 onwards, each episode will be released after a week to create more anticipation around the series. Unlike platforms like Netflix or Prime Video that typically release entire seasons in one go, JioHotstar's decision to stretch the fourth season week by week has led to growing frustration. Viewers took to social media to vent, saying the slow rollout is killing the thrill of the show. The new episodes will be released on the streaming app every Thursday. This means that the next episode will be released on June 12. Netizens react to weekly episode release One fan expressed their frustration on X after starting Criminal Justice Season 4, saying the initial mood was perfectly set, but the excitement quickly faded upon realising that only three episodes were available. They questioned JioHotstar's weekly release strategy, calling it less like a gripping legal thriller and more like 'episodic torture' for loyal fans eager to binge. — irfan_speak786 (@irfan_speak786) Another fan called the three-episode drop a major letdown, pointing out that waiting every Thursday for just one new episode kills the momentum and excitement of the show. — rajputabhiraj09 (@rajputabhiraj09) Echoing the sentiment, a viewer who had been waiting nearly a year for Criminal Justice Season 4 vented their frustration, slamming the weekly rollout as a disservice to loyal fans. They criticised JioHotstar and the creators for stretching the release and dragging out the experience instead of allowing viewers to immerse themselves fully in the story. — akshayjanagoud (@akshayjanagoud) About Criminal Justice season 4 The backlash is a testament to just how invested audiences are in the journey of Madhav Mishra , the soft-spoken but razor-sharp lawyer played by Pankaj Tripathi. In Season 4, he takes on a sensational murder case involving a politically influential family. What starts as a simple defence soon morphs into a courtroom chess match, with secrets, manipulation, and high-stakes drama at every turn. Directed by Rohan Sippy and produced by Applause Entertainment, the show has consistently won praise for its grounded storytelling and layered performances. Viewers can catch new episodes of Criminal Justice: Adhura Sach Season 4 every Thursday on JioHotstar.

Dolly Parton Shuts The Door On Meghan Markle? Another PR Move Backfires For The Duchess Meghan Markle reportedly faced a major snub after country music legend Dolly Parton declined an invite to appear on her Netflix show With Love, Meghan. According to royal commentator Kinsey Schofield, Dolly's team was allegedly 'livid' at the suggestion, viewing it as a calculated PR move to boost Meghan's credibility in the lifestyle space. Sources claim Parton wanted to protect her wholesome public image and felt Meghan was attempting to 'ride her goodwill' for clout. Journalist Maureen Callahan even joked that Dolly in Meghan's 'fake kitchen' would cause 'spontaneous combustion.' Despite the rejection, Netflix confirmed a second season of Meghan's show earlier this year. 2.3K views | 2 days ago

David Beckham to receive knighthood in King Charles's birthday list
David Beckham is finally getting the honour many believed he should have received years ago. The former England captain will be knighted next week as part of King Charles III's birthday celebrations. He will officially become Sir David Beckham, while Victoria Beckham will be known as Lady Beckham. Beckham turned 50 last month and has long been linked with a knighthood. His contribution to English football, with 115 appearances for the national team and iconic moments like his free-kick against Greece, still fresh in many minds. But it is not just football that led to this honour. His charity work, especially with underprivileged children, and his strong relationship with King Charles have played a big part too. David Beckham and King Charles shared a moment at the Chelsea Flower Show The King and David Beckham's friendship appears to be going from strength to strength! HM asked whether DB had received his 50th birthday gift, much to David's delight. The Queen added: 'Nice to see you again, glad you got the roses.' Beckham said it was 'incredible' gesture 👑 Last month, Beckham had a warm exchange with the King during the Chelsea Flower Show. Charles asked him, 'You got it, didn't you?' and Beckham replied, 'It was incredible, thank you. It was very kind.' That moment now feels like a quiet confirmation of the honour to come. Beckham is also an ambassador for The King's Foundation. He supports programmes aimed at helping young people connect with nature, a cause close to his heart. In his Netflix documentary, he even spoke about beekeeping at his Cotswolds home. From football pitches to royal circles Sir David Beckham and Lady Beckham David has been awarded a Knighthood 🎖️ Beckham's journey has gone far beyond football. After his success with Manchester United, he played for Real Madrid, LA Galaxy and AC Milan before retiring. Off the pitch, he became a global icon and later co-owner of MLS club Inter Miami. Recently, he also joined a group aiming to take Salford City up the English football ladder. Back in 2003, Beckham received an OBE. In 2011, he was in line for a knighthood after helping with London's 2012 Olympics bid. But things were delayed after his name was caught up in a tax issue. He was cleared in 2021. Today, he is a long-time UNICEF ambassador and recently received the World Economic Forum's Crystal Award for his work in children's rights. During his speech in Davos, he spoke about creating equal chances for girls, including his daughter Harper. From football fame to royal honours, Beckham's story continues to grow. And with his knighthood finally arriving, fans across the world will no doubt be calling him Sir David Beckham with pride.
