, who recently went to Kashmir for a vacation, faced backlash for allegedly promoting his vlog. Shoaib Ibrahim has now spoken out against the backlash he and his wife, Dipika Kakar, received after posting an Instagram update about their safety and a forthcoming vlog shortly after the Pahalgam terror incident in Kashmir.
Although the couple had already departed from the area, some online users criticised their timing, calling the post inappropriate during such a sorrowful situation.
In his latest vlog, Shoaib slammed the trolls and said, "Story waala joh mudda bana hai, yaa banaya hai We flew from Srinagar to Delhi on April 22 and when we were in flight in the afternoon, the Pahalgam incident took place at that time which we were not aware of.
When we landed in Delhi and switched on our phones finally after a week we got our network as we all know prepaid sims don't work In Kashmir. We started getting messages from people asking about our wellbeing.
We did not bother much because we were travelling with a kid especially. When we reached our hotel, the news about the attack started coming in but they initially said that one or two people were injured. We only knew about the injured people so we thought of informing everyone and I put up the story.

To inform everyone that we are safe and Vlog coming out soon. But we did not expect that people will make it so big especially by some YouTube channels and publications."
He further added, "It was never my intention to promote the vlog. I did not have the entire information about the attack. When I started getting other videos and information that's when we learnt about the entire situation. We were at the same place a few days ago.
I did not delete my story as my intention was never to promote the vlog. Par kayi log mujhe maa-behan ki gaaliyaan bakk ke gaye hain DMs par. There were so many people who haven't subscribed out channel or checked my channel but they also came and abused me .
"
Shoaib called out the hypocrisy of those who targeted him with criticism, pointing out that the same people remained quiet when other
content creators
shared travel vlogs, promoted movies, or released music videos during the same time. He said, "Agar maan lo main video daal bhi deta, toh sirf main target kyun? Dipika aur main target kyun? Kya main aur Dipika special hain aapke liye? Saare vloggers ne videos daily basis par daale hain,
film promotions
horahe hain, music video promote horahe hain. Even you guys must be leading your life the same way like before. Aap khana kha rahe hoge, gaane sun rahe honge, kaam par jaa rahe honge. So why am I the only one to get targeted. Mujhe kyun maa behan ki gaali, why was Dipika trolled so much. "

Priyanka Chopra recalls working in Vishal Bhardwajs Kaminey, showers praise on Shahid Kapoor

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], August 18 (ANI): Actor Priyanka Chopra added a nostalgic touch to her Instagram feed with a special post dedicated to her film 'Kaminey'. Helmed by Vishal Bhardwaj, Kaminey, which also starred Shahid Kapoor, recently clocked 16 years. And now on Monday, Priyanka took a stroll down memory lane, describing the film as a turning point in her career. "Sweety Bhope. I was filming for Dostana in Miami, Florida with @tarun_mansukhani directing and @bachchan and @thejohnabraham starring. One cool evening after we wrapped shoot, I saw a missed call from Vishal Bhardwaj. What?? I had wanted to work with him forever and never thought he would cast me because of my 'commercial' image at the time. He said he'd like to come see me, and he did. To Miami. I remember him telling me the story and I said, Well, she has approximately eight scenes.' And he said, 'With us working on it, it will end up being so much more. Trust me.' And I did," she recalled. "He promised he would make something incredible for me after this in appreciation for doing the part. But honestly, I was just greedy to work with him. A few years later, we did 7 Khoon Maaf.#Kaminey remains a turning point in my career," she added. She also heaped praise on her co-stars Shahid Kapoor and Amol Gupte. "I learned so much from the master @vishalrbhardwaj, how to research, prepare and then surrender to the part. @shahidkapoor was sensational in his double role. #AmolGupte was unforgettable. I also met @mubinarattonsey for the first time on this set. Those were the times. 16 years ago! Thought I'd share the experience. Have any of you watched it," Priyanka wrote. Shahid Kapoor plays dual roles as twin brothers, Charlie and Guddu, each with distinct speech impediments. Priyanka's dance in Raat Ke Dhai Baje became viral back then. Priyanka is currently busy shooting for SS Rajamouli's film, which pairs her opposite Mahesh Babu. (ANI)

Beyond the storyline and acting, it was the film's music and Ranga's iconic dance steps that captured the internet's imagination, going viral across platforms and sparking countless reels and memes. Now, Fahadh Faasil has once again delighted fans by revisiting Ranga on stage. At a promotional event for his upcoming Malayalam rom-com Odum Kuthira Chaadum Kuthira, the actor surprised the audience by recreating his much-loved Aavesham dance steps. A video from the event, showing Fahadh channeling his inner Ranga with the same charm and eccentricity, has taken social media by storm, with netizens showering love on 'Fafa' for bringing back those viral moves.

Actress Kalyani Priyadarshan, who stars opposite Fahadh in the film, was seen clapping enthusiastically as he recreated the dance steps. Alongside them, Revathy Pillai, producer Aashiq Usman, and director Althaf Salim also graced the stage, making the event a lively prelude to the film's release. Kalyani, visibly impressed by Fahadh's energy, later explained the essence of the film in a single, intriguing line, 'Basically, if a Korean rom-com story is narrated satirically in a Woody Allen or Wes Anderson style, how would that be — that is Odum Kuthira Chaadum Kuthira."

The film is slated for release on August 29, 2025, coinciding with the festive season of Onam. Interestingly, the release sets up a box office clash, as Mohanlal's much-awaited Hridayapoorvam is hitting screens just a day earlier, on August 28, 2025. Adding to the crowded weekend, Kalyani Priyadarshan's other film Lokah: Chapter One – Chandra is also gearing up for release, although its official date has not yet been announced.
