'Today is shoulder day': BTS Jungkook's gym work out plans leave ARMY in 'panic' mode
With less than a month to go until the long-awaited reunion of the world's biggest boy band, BTS, excitement is building. Fans, known as ARMY, are already planning trips to Seoul to celebrate the group's anniversary and upcoming reunion in June. And it seems the members themselves are just as eager.
On May 15, BTS' youngest member, Jungkook, took to Weverse to interact with fans and was in a happy mood. He started by checking in and asking how everyone was doing, then mentioned that his military discharge was approaching and that he'd be getting out soon. Toward the end of his comments, he added that he was heading to the gym.
Jungkook's comments on Weverse
The singer first posted, "I'm about to go work out now," and followed it up with, "Today is shoulder day," indicating that he would be focusing on shoulder exercises.
ARMY in 'panic'
Jungkook's gym update sent ARMY into "panic mode" — but for a hilariously relatable reason. Fans joked that they were not emotionally prepared for a buffer, more muscular Jungkook.
The frenzy comes shortly after a viral photo of Jungkook and fellow member V (aka Kim Taehyung), lovingly dubbed TaeKook, showed the two flexing their gains at the gym.
With discharge day nearing, fans, especially on X (formerly known as Twitter) are bracing themselves for an even more swole Jungkook — and many say they simply won't survive it.

BTS' upcoming reunion
The seven-member group — Jin, Suga, J-Hope, RM, Jimin, V, and Jungkook — is expected to reunite in June 2025, once all members have completed their mandatory military service. With Jin and J-Hope already discharged, the remaining members are set to return soon.
RM and V are scheduled to be relieved from their duties on June 10, 2025, followed by Jimin and Jungkook on June 11. SUGA, who has been serving as a public service worker, is expected to complete his duties on June 21, 2025.

Deepika Padukone NOT Dropped from Kalki 2, Sources Deny Fallout Rumours
Last Updated: Deepika Padukone has not been dropped from Kalki 2, say sources. The film is still in pre-production and casting has yet to begin. No on-set fallout occurred. Amid swirling rumours that Deepika Padukone has been dropped from Kalki 2, sources close to the film have categorically denied any such development. The buzz, which gained traction online over the past few days, claimed that Deepika had a fallout with the film's team and co-star Prabhas—a claim insiders are now calling 'completely baseless." The truth? Kalki 2 hasn't even begun filming yet. According to sources, the much-anticipated sequel is still in the pre-production phase and no official casting has been locked in. 'They haven't even approached actors because it's still in development," a source told NDTV, debunking the theory that Deepika was dropped due to 'on-set friction." As another insider pointed out, 'There's been no shoot, no interaction, and therefore, no fallout." The speculation appears to be an extension of earlier reports involving Deepika's exit from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's upcoming film Spirit. Rumours suggested the actor had demanded 8-hour workdays, a higher salary, and a share in profits—conditions that reportedly did not sit well with the filmmaker. Adding fuel to the fire, Vanga shared cryptic posts on X (formerly Twitter) criticizing actors for wanting 'luxury," which many assumed was a dig at Deepika. The situation escalated when Triptii Dimri, fresh off her success in Animal, was announced as the lead in Spirit. While Dimri confirmed her casting with a grateful Instagram post, the timing led many to conclude that Deepika had been replaced. As for Kalki 2, no such decision has been made. The rumour mill may be churning overtime, but for now, Deepika's involvement remains a matter of speculation—one not supported by any official word or concrete development. Until the film moves forward, one thing remains clear: there's no drama where there's no shoot. First Published: June 06, 2025, 16:14 IST

Deepika Padukone quits Kalki 2 after 8-hour shift demand! Script leak accusation adds fuel to spirit exit drama
Actor Deepika Padukone has reportedly opted out of the second part of Kalki 2898 AD, following her earlier controversial exit from Spirit, directed by Sandeep Reddy Vanga. The decision, according to sources, came after she requested an 8-hour workday—an ask that may not align with the scale and requirements of the upcoming film. Makers struggle to accommodate shorter work hours According to a report by Deepika had asked the production team of Kalki 2898 AD to consider limiting her daily work schedule to eight hours. This comes in light of her recent transition into motherhood after welcoming her daughter Dua in September 2024. Given that the project is a big-budget, high-scale film, sources claim that the team is finding it difficult to accommodate her request without compromising the film's progress. As a result, the makers are now reportedly considering either removing her character or reducing her screen presence in the sequel. There has been no official word yet from Deepika or the production team. Kalki sequel was to show her giving birth to the saviour Deepika played a central role in the first part of Kalki 2898 AD, portraying a pregnant woman who carries the unborn Kalki avatar of Lord Vishnu. Her character was set to deliver the divine child in the sequel, who would rise to save a post-apocalyptic world from an oppressive regime. The film also features major stars including Amitabh Bachchan, Prabhas, and Kamal Haasan, and draws heavily from the Mahabharata for its plot themes. Earlier exit from spirit and script leak allegations Deepika's name also surfaced in headlines recently after she was reportedly removed from Spirit, another upcoming film by Sandeep Reddy Vanga, also starring Prabhas. Reports suggest the actress had demanded an 8-hour schedule, a significant remuneration, and a share in the film's profits—terms the filmmaker reportedly did not agree to. Soon after, actor Triptii Dimri was announced as the female lead of the project. The controversy escalated when Vanga posted on X (formerly Twitter) without naming anyone, but indirectly implying a breach of trust. He claimed that a script he had shared during discussions with a lead actor had been leaked. 'There is an unsaid NDA between us… Putting down a younger actor and ousting my story? Is this what your feminism stands for?' he wrote, questioning the intentions of the unnamed actor and stating that she 'didn't get it, won't get it, and will never get it.'
