This superstar son's was set to get married, but he died, one film ruined his life, both son and father are now dead, his name was…, his father was…
The story of an actor is something that will shake you up. There were 17 days left for his wedding. He was the son of a superstar. Like every day, that day too, he was on the set for the shooting of the film. His mind was thinking of completing all the work before the wedding and then spending some leisure time with the family. But everything changed in a moment. During the shooting, a bullet was fired and the superstar's son was shot. Yes, this is not a scene from a film but the real story of the son of a superstar who is no longer in this world.
We are talking about Chinese actor Bruce Lee's son, Brandon Lee. Bruce Lee may be a Chinese star but his action has received a lot of love in India. He is the only Chinese star who has received immense success in India as well. But a mountain of sorrow broke on him when his young son died.
Bruce Lee's son, Brandon Lee was shooting for his film The Crow. That day, an action scene was being shot on the set. Where Brandon Lee and his co-star Michael Massie were face-to-face. Brandon's co-star shoots him and he falls down. This was a scene for which preparations had been made. The makers had also put a real bullet in the gun along with a fake one so that when the bullet is fired in the zoom shot, the spark and smoke can be captured.
The makers had explained to the entire team that in the first shot, real bullets would be removed from the gun and fake bullets would be inserted. In the scene, a fake bullet was to be fired at Brandon and in the next shot, a real bullet was to be fired, and the smoke was to be captured. As soon as the costar fired at Brandon, he fell backwards with a thud. Initially, no one could understand what happened. Some thought the actor was joking. But when he did not get up for some time, there was an uproar. Then it was revealed that the bullet that was fired was real.
On 31 March 1993, Bruce Lee's son breathed his last at the age of 28. The most heartbreaking thing was that he was going to get married in just 17 days before his death. But in a moment, the superstar's home was destroyed. His partner, Brandon, fell in love with director Renny Harlin's assistant. Both got engaged in October 1992 and were going to get married in the year 1993. But Brandon's death ended everything.
At the same time, Bruce Lee is no more in this world. He died in 1973 at the age of 32. It is surprising that both father and son died at a young age. Bruce Lee had earned a lot of fame all over the world at a young age.

A Sense of Ennui
I'm back after a three-week sabbatical, refreshed and raring to go. I find myself at a crossroads in my career and life, as all the things that previously excited me in my twenties and thirties, about being a driven lawyer and having a great work-life balance, started to bore me in my late thirties. After my kids were born, I wanted more! The courtrooms were dusty and dank, filled with sleazeballs and corruption, while the firm I was working at used me only to peddle papers and the like. No standing on the pulpit of justice and shouting out 'me-lord' and changing the world. It was all about money and a waiting game and I found it preposterous that the 'doyens' of justice were willing to compromise their ethics so readily. My brain raced with tumultuous thoughts and ideas, and as my fave teacher at school had told me, I had a 'turbulent soul'. My outlet was of course the performing arts and I was 'the first' in many spheres of my career. Be it a stand-up comedy films, theatre or using humour to address serious issues in the corporate training space. Now I am filled with a sense of ennui once again. It is time for re-invention or 'quietus'. Since I'm not ready for 'quietus' quite yet, I did the next best thing. I took off for a quick break to Thailand, where I spent my days lounging, drinking, eating and being massaged by very sweet Thai ladies who would often ask me questions in their sing-song voices which promptly put me to sleep! We were in a beautiful resort by the beach, so I had no wish to be with other beach-combers on crowded 'touristy' beaches, throng crowded by-lanes, hop into seedy massage parlours or buy more cheap Chinese goods! Instead, I spent my days at the glorious resort, eating excellent food, drinking fabulous mai-tais, swimming, listening to Thai music (or English songs sung with Thai accents) and rejuvenating my soul. The trip didn't involve a long flight, but the long immigration lines and tacky airport at Phuket were disappointing. Coming back home to my 'ooru' with exceptional service, a five-minute procedure to enter my own country felt like heaven. India has come into her own and now more than ever, I am proud to be an Indian. I came back to an invitation awaiting me from Chef Kevin who was showcasing his culinary skills at a very exclusive pop-up at the DoubleTree by Hilton Bengaluru Whitefield. Though the trek was long and arduous, the thought of trying out this young and experimental chef's cuisine was too tempting not to follow up. His credentials were impressive as he worked in three Michelin-starred restaurants on his culinary journey. We weren't disappointed as his signature dish 'Banh-Xeo' a beloved Vietnamese rice pancake hit all the sweet spots. Let no one doubt my allegiance to 'namma-ooru'. I was ecstatic when we ultimately claimed the IPL crown after 18 humiliating years of failing to do so. I was ready to adopt the young Virat Kohli (nothing much else I could do), but the aftermath that followed really cut me to the quick. A clarion call from the 'white shoe brigade' to celebrate resulted in the death of innocents and the injury of many. I was horrified to see the large number of dead and injured at the hospital nearby. Accept people as they are, but place them where they belong. (The writer's views are personal)

Toying Around: Bengalureans on the recent Labubu toy trend
If you've been doomscrolling through social media lately, chances are you've encountered the cute, yet eerie face of Labubu – the plush toy that the internet is currently hooked on. Hanging from Ananya Panday's designer bag, featured on popular K-pop star Lisa's live streams, or unboxing videos of influencers trying to get ahold of the rare one they want, it is everywhere. 'Labubu has been popular in the Far East but has now become a global phenomenon. The past two months have seen a huge surge in their demand in India,' says Zohara Jamal, a popular lifestyle content creator. Ayesha Alikhan, a city-based psychologist, concurs, saying, 'In Bengaluru, specifically, I've been seeing many influencers carrying these dolls. I've also seen many kids as well as middle-aged women at UB City walking around with the dolls in their bags.' Fondly called 'ugly-cute' by fans, Labubu is a collectible character designed by Hong Kong-born artist Kasing Lung in 2015. Inspired by Nordic mythology, the character was initially featured in Lung's picture book series The Monsters, where Labubu is depicted as a mischievous, elf-like creature, with a toothy grin and a playful demeanour. Later, it gained widespread popularity through a collaboration with Chinese toy company Pop Mart, which introduced the character as part of its blind box collectible series – a popular release in which each toy is sold in a sealed package.
