The 'Neerja' actress made her comeback to the screen with the 2023 crime thriller "Blind", in which she portrayed a visually impaired ex-police officer. The film marked her return to acting following a break she took after welcoming her son, Vayu, in 2022.
Directed by Shome Makhija, the thriller also starred Shubham Saraf, Danesh Razvi, Purab Kohli, Vinay Pathak, Lillete Dubey, and Javed Khan in key roles. "Blind," released as a JioCinema original, was a remake of the 2011 South Korean film of the same name, originally featuring Yoo Seung-ho and Kim Ha-neul in lead roles.

WATCH: Shreyas Iyer gets ‘clean bowled' by his mother while playing cricket in living room

With experts advocating for Shreyas Iyer's inclusion in India's ongoing Test series against England, the batter was seen having a relaxing time with his family in their home, playing cricket with his mother. In a video shared by Punjab Kings, Iyer's IPL franchise, the PBKS captain was facing deliveries from his mother in the living room with one delivery even breaching his defence. 'Only time SARPANCH won't mind getting bowled!,' Punjab Kings posted on X, sharing the video. His mother gleefully celebrated as she shouted 'out' with the video ending soon after. Shreyas and his parents share a pretty comfortable bond with his parents taking pride in narrating the pranks their children play on them to visitors. When The Indian Express visited their home once, the father spoke of how Shreyas was in the habit of fooling them on phone. He once faked an English accent to check if his father was traveling to the UK to watch his son play a county game. When his mother is in the kitchen, Shreyas's 'what's cooking' inquiry is unique: 'Aaj kya bigaad rahi ho (what meal are you spoiling today)'. But still Shreyas might be the only Indian cricketer who still gets dropped to the airport by both his parents. Only time SARPANCH won't mind getting bowled! 😂♥️ — Punjab Kings (@PunjabKingsIPL) June 30, 2025 Meanwhile, there were questions raised over Iyer's exclusion from India's extensive 18-member squad announced in May, and the situation sparked more questions about the 30-year-old's red-ball future at the international level. Iyer was in blistering form in the IPL, leading Punjab Kings to a runners-up finish with his best season with the bat, scoring 604 runs at a 50-plus average and a staggering 175.07 strike rate with 39 sixes. Iyer also had a productive Ranji Trophy season besides leading Mumbai to the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy win in December 2024. In nine First Class matches, including an Irani Cup triumph, Iyer aggregated 699 runs with two centuries and three fifties. However, that would not be enough to make a comeback to the Test squad for Iyer, who last represented India during the 2024 home series against England. Chairman of selectors Ajit Agarkar had reasoned that there was no room currently for Iyer in the scheme of things despite his solid form at the domestic level. 'Yes, Shreyas Iyer has played well in domestic cricket, but at the moment, there is no room for him on the Test Team,' he said while speaking to reporters in Mumbai when announcing the Test squad in late May.

"Ab aayega Captain Cool powder, oil, deodorant": Fans imagine the wackiest products Dhoni could launch

As news broke that former Indian cricket captain MS Dhoni has filed a trademark application for the phrase 'Captain Cool', social media lit up with a flurry of hilarious and surprisingly informed reactions. The term, famously linked to Dhoni's unshakeable calm on the cricket field, is now set to become official property. According to the Trade Marks Registry portal, Dhoni's application, filed on June 5 and listed under Class 41 (sports training, coaching, and facilities), was accepted and advertised on June 16. While the trademark is focused on sports services, that didn't stop netizens from imagining a full-blown product universe. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like These Photos Captured the Exact Wrong Moment Read More Undo 'Ab aayega Captain Cool powder, oil, deodorant,' joked one user, summing up the mood online. — Being_Humor (@Being_Humor) Live Events On X (formerly Twitter), another user cheekily imagined a lineup of Captain Cool-branded underwear, condoms, and slippers, before clarifying that the registration is strictly for sports-related services: 'nothing cheeky like that just yet!' — ramnit1983 (@ramnit1983) Another user weighed in on the trend of celebrities trademarking fan-given nicknames: 'Next he'll trademark Thala. Someone will trademark King, Hitman etc. One has already done for letters S R and K.' — rkver2 (@rkver2) Many saw Dhoni's move as a strategic step towards launching his own sports academy or coaching brand.

Box Office: Sitaare Zameen Par crosses Ghajini globally to emerge Aamir Khan's 6th highest grosser; Dangal retains top spot

Aamir Khan is among the most loved Indian actors. His latest film Sitaare Zameen Par is doing well at the box office for the size of film that it is. The sports drama has collected Rs 195 crore globally by its second Sunday, surpassing the worldwide earnings of Aamir's 2008 blockbuster Ghajini, which earned Rs 194.60 crore. This achievement makes Sitaare Zameen Par, Aamir Khan's 6th highest-grossing film ever. Let's dive into how this film compares to his other hits on the global stage. Sitaare Zameen Par Has Crossed The Global Earnings Of Ghajini; Is Now Aamir Khan's 6th Highest Grosser After the underwhelming performance of Laal Singh Chaddha in 2022, which earned slightly over Rs 130 crore worldwide, Aamir Khan has made a good comeback. Sitaare Zameen Par, which tells the story of a basketball coach training players with special needs, has resonated deeply with many. It has reiterated that the actor still has a knack of what works and what doesn't, with the audience. Ghajini was a game-changer in 2008. It was the first Bollywood film to cross the Rs 100 crore mark in India, earning Rs 114 crore net domestically and Rs 194.60 crore worldwide. Its intense action and gripping story made it a massive hit. However, Sitaare Zameen Par has now overtaken it globally with Rs 195 crore. Ghajini continues to be a bigger hit because if adjusted for inflation, its India net numbers itself would be around Rs 400 crore, if not more. Sitaare Zameen Par now ranks as Aamir's 6th highest-grossing film worldwide. Here's how it compares to his top earners: (lead roles only) Rank Movie Worldwide Gross Collections 1 Dangal Rs 1910 crore 2 PK Rs 757 crore 3 Dhoom 3 Rs 554 crore 4 3 Idiots Rs 415 crore 5 Thugs Of Hindostan Rs 310 crore 6 Sitaare Zameen Par Rs 195 crore and counting.. Can Sitaare Zameen Par Cross Thugs Of Hindostan Worldwide? Sitaare Zameen Par is now behind Thugs Of Hindostan. With strong audience support and a release in non-traditional international markets, it might challenge for the 5th spot soon. If the movie does not breakout in non-traditional international markets, Thugs Of Hindostan will retain its 5th position. Sitaare Zameen Par In Theatres Sitaare Zameen Par plays in theatres.
