Ram Teri Ganga Maili actor Mandakini's father passes away, pens emotional tribute: ‘My heart is shattered, no words can explain pain'

Veteran actor Mandakini's father Joseph passed away on July 2. Known for her role in the iconic 1985 film Ram Teri Ganga Maili, she shared the sad news on social media. Mandakini also penned an emotional tribute in the remembrance of her father. Taking to her Instagram handle, the actor shared a smiling picture of him in a post and wrote, 'My heart is shattered today… I lost my beloved father this morning. No words can express the pain of this goodbye. Thank you, Papa, for your endless love, wisdom, and blessings. You will forever live in my heart!' Several fans flooded the comments section with condolences and support during the difficult time. Check out the post: A post shared by Yasmeen Joseph Thakur | Mandakini (@mandakiniofficial) Mandakini gained a lot of popularity after playing the female lead in late director Raj Kapoor's Ram Teri Ganga Maili. She appeared in several other films like Dance Dance, Kahan Hai Kanoon and Pyaar Karke Dekho after that, but eventually stepped away from the film industry. However, she came as a guest on The Kapil Sharma Show with actor Sangeeta Bijlani in 2023. ALSO READ | Khushbu Sundar reveals she was Raj Kapoor's first choice for Ram Teri Ganga Maili, but was dropped for being too young: 'I wasn't even 14' In an interview with Pinkvilla earlier, Mandakini had opened up about her time in the limelight and how there was a pay disparity faced by actresses during that era. 'When we used to work in the movies, they gave us Rs 1–1.5 lakhs for the full movie. That was the price. Maximum 2 lakhs, not more than that. Heroines wouldn't get more than this. For example, if I liked a movie and agreed to do it, a few days later an announcement would be made—with another actress. I later learned it was because I asked for Rs 1.5 lakh and they found someone else willing to do it for Rs 75,000,' she shared. Mandakini further added, 'They just needed a heroine. 'We have to shoot 2-3 songs. If one won't do it, someone else will. Whoever comes for the cheapest, take her.' That was the mindset of directors and producers.'

Why Sydney Sweeney Attended Jeff Bezos–Lauren Sánchez wedding despite no friendship: Behind-the-scenes reason revealed

The talk of the town on Friday, June 27, was Jeff Bezos's wedding to former TV host Lauren Sanchez in Venice. The wedding in Venice has been in the news ever since, whether it is because of its impressive guest list or its astounding expense. The best of Hollywood, including Leonardo DiCaprio and Oprah Winfrey, came to the City of Canals for the wedding. However, one name was able to attract the most attention: Sydney Sweeney , the newest it-girl in Hollywood. Sydney Sweeney attended the Bezos-Sanchez wedding, but why? Sweeney is not friends with either of the two, according to Page Six. But because of her next project with Amazon MGM Studios, she was still at the wedding. According to a report, Sweeney fulfilled her invitation to the wedding and "came to pay respects to the 'boss,' just like in the old days of Hollywood." Earlier this year, Sweeney was last seen with the couple at the Vanity Fair Oscars Party. Variety revealed Sweeney's most recent project with Amazon last month. It will be a movie based on the March release of the video game "Split Fiction." Two writers who become captured in their made-up worlds are the subject of the video game. The project will be directed by Jon M. Chu of Wicked, and the screenplay will be written by the same team that wrote "Deadpool & Wolverine." While her co-star is still being looked for, Sweeney will be the project's executive producer. Sweeney previously collaborated on her 2021 project, "The Voyeurs," with Amazon. According to IMDb, she will also feature in an expected biopic about boxer Christy Martin. Rumors have suggested that Sweeney and Orlando Bloom or Tom Brady, two other A-list visitors, may have a romantic relationship while she is in Venice.

Due to the actor's popularity, he charges high fees for advertisements. According to Park Seo Joon's agency, Awesome ENT, the unauthorized use of his photos resulted in a significant financial impact on him. They calculated that the actor lost roughly 1 billion KRW (approximately 736,000 USD) annually in advertising fees over six years, as the restaurant did not pay him a dime for using his photos for promotion. How is What's Wrong with Secretary Kim linked with the case? The issue began after a scene from Park Seo Joon's 2018 hit drama, What's Wrong With Secretary Kim, was shot at the concerned restaurant. The scene included the actor enjoying ganjang gejang (soy sauce-marinated crab) there. Following that, from August 2019 to September 2023, the diner owner displayed banners featuring Park Seo Joon inside and outside the establishment. He even ran search ads on Naver for about six years. Upon discovering this, he took legal action, claiming that the use of his image "without consent" violated his "portrait rights." His agency stated that they had requested the promotional materials be taken down several times since 2019, but the restaurant continued to use them, prompting a lawsuit of 6 billion KRW. The agency added, "We have confirmed that secondary harm is ongoing through malicious mockery and slander regarding the contents of a just verdict." Although they won the case, they will receive only 5 million KRW, as per the court's ruling.
