Does Shah Rukh Khan Throw Tantrums On Sets? His Witty Response Wins The Internet
Shah Rukh Khan, on Saturday evening, hosted a surprise 'Ask SRK' session on X, leaving fans in a frenzy. There, SRK spoke about his upcoming film King, and also soft-launched his son Aryan Khan's debut directorial series, Ba***ds of Bollywood, slated for release this year. During the question-answer session, SRK was asked if he throws tantrums on sets – a question that often circles big stars. His reply won the Internet.
In his signature humorous style, Shah Rukh Khan dismissed the notion outright. 'Nobody allows me to throw tantrums on sets," he said, before adding a cheeky remark about his upcoming project. 'Now on King, even less — the director is so strict and organised." The superstar's upcoming film is being directed by Pathaan-fame Siddharth Anand. Here is his post:

SRK shares big update on King
Shah Rukh Khan returned to films in 2023, five years after Zero with Anushka Sharma and Katrina Kaif in 2018. He first starred in Pathaan, then Jawan and Dunki – all in the same year. He is now gearing up for King, which also stars his daughter, Suhana Khan.
During his trademark #AskSRK session on X (formerly Twitter), a fan asked him when his next film would release. In his witty yet candid response, SRK wrote, 'Did some good shoot… starting soon again. Only leg shots then move to upper body… Insha Allah will be done fast. @justSidAnand is working hard to finish." For the unversed, King shoot is halted briefly owing to his recent shoulder injury.
SRK injured on King sets
Shah Rukh Khan's highly-awaited King faced a setback after the superstar injured his shoulder while shooting an intense sequence at Mumbai's Golden Tobacco Studio, according to a Mid-Day report.
Though the injury isn't life-threatening, SRK has flown to the US for precautionary treatment, where doctors have advised him to rest for at least a month. As a result, production schedules planned at Film City, Golden Tobacco, and YRF Studios for July and August have been put on hold. Shooting is likely to resume in September or October, depending on his recovery.
Despite the delay, buzz around King continues to soar. The film stars SRK as a veteran assassin training his protégé, played by Suhana Khan. The cast also features Deepika Padukone, Anil Kapoor, Rani Mukerji, Arshad Warsi, Abhay Verma, and Raghav Juyal, with Anil Kapoor reportedly essaying the role of SRK's mentor.

'Wanted To Be Friends With Apoorva Mukhija, Not Rebel Kid': Sufi Motiwala Breaks Silence On Broken Bond
Last Updated: Sufi Motiwala said Apoorva Mukhija has not defended him against her fans who keep trolling him. Social media influencer Sufi Motiwala was one of the faces on Karan Johar's reality show, The Traitors. Premiered on Prime Video, the show brought together an ensemble cast of renowned personalities from the fields of film, TV and the internet. Through his participation in the reality show, Sufi forged a close bond with influencer and actress Apoorva Mukhija, also known as The Rebel Kid. However, their friendship has now come to an end. Sufi took to his Instagram Stories and wrote, 'No more lies. I've received a lot of texts saying that I've taken clout from Apoorva, and I've left her. I've literally never collaborated on a reel with her and have been on her YouTube twice, both of which were her content pieces entirely." He added, 'So no I'm not sorry I didn't use her for clout (incase u forgot we were on the same show without knowing each other I don't need her clout) I wanted to be friends with Apoorva not the rebel kid when there was no accountability constantly for how I was being treated I distanced myself." He said, 'I even requested her to ask her audience to calm down because they've been abusing me for no reason. Sadly, this person who called me her best friend has no concern for that, or the fact that maybe I'm hurt. THAT is why I'm not friends with her anymore. Keep it cute, keep it moving." He concluded, 'Idc about anything u think I'm a horrible person, ok. But I have worked my a** off to build myself to where I am, and I won't let a bunch of children discredit that by spreading misinformation." Sufi and Apoorva became fast friends during the show's shoot and the internet loved their friendship. However, eagle-eyed fans noticed that Sufi and Apoorva no longer mention each other on social media despite attending the same events, including one in Australia. In fact, Sufi has even unfollowed Apoorva on Instagram. Meanwhile, Apoorva is yet to react to Sufi's Story. Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Dev Anand's Advice To Asha Bhosle For Raat Akeli Hai Song: ‘Think That You Are An 18-Year-Old Girl'
Last Updated: Asha Bhosle reveals Dev Anand almost removed Dum Maaro Dum from Hare Rama Hare Krishna until she convinced him to keep it. Asha Bhosle has seen the making of countless evergreen hits, but even she admits some of her most famous songs nearly didn't make it to screen. The legendary playback singer has now opened up about the stories behind two of her most memorable numbers – Raat Akeli Hai Bujh Gaye Diye and the cult classic Dum Maaro Dum. In a recent chat with Republic World, Asha shared that Dum Maaro Dum, one of her most iconic tracks from Hare Rama Hare Krishna (1971), was almost dropped by Dev Anand. Speaking fondly of her bond with the actor–director, Asha Bhosle recalled, 'Dev ji used to launch new heroines all the time. He launched Zeenat Aman and Tina Munim (now Tina Ambani). I used to tease him, 'Meri bari kab aayegi (When will my turn come)?'" She also remembered how Dev Anand guided her while recording Raat Akeli Hai Bujh Gaye Diye for Jewel Thief. 'Before singing this song, he gave me the brief, 'Think that you are an 18-year-old girl.'" The singer went on to share how the mood of Dum Maaro Dum was born. According to her, composer RD Burman – fondly called Pancham Da – drew inspiration from the hippie culture he witnessed in Nepal. Asha said, 'When this song was made, we were in Nepal at that time. That was also the time of the hippie generation. So, in Nepal, Pancham Da saw a lot of hippies and asked Anand Bakshi ji to write this song." But the song's bold lyrics raised eyebrows. 'Some raised objection with the wordings of the song. After the recording of the song, we were so happy. But Dev Anand ji told us that he is removing the song from the film because he didn't want the words 'Dum Maaro Dum' and 'Hare Krishna Hare Ram' to come together," Asha revealed. It was her insistence that changed his mind. 'I asked Dev ji to keep the song. 'Ye gaana bahut chalne waala hai (This song will work a lot),' I told him. Dev ji told me that 'if you are saying this, I will keep the song.'" The rest, as fans know, is music history – Dum Maaro Dum went on to become one of the defining songs of its era. Dum Maaro Dum from Dev Anand's Hare Rama Hare Krishna (1971) is one of Bollywood's most iconic songs, sung by Asha Bhosle and composed by RD Burman. With Zeenat Aman's unforgettable screen presence and Anand Bakshi's bold lyrics, the track captured the essence of the hippie era and went on to become a cultural anthem that defined the '70s generation.

'She sells her soul to the devil': Tom Brady's ex-wife Gisele Bündchen accused of promoting satanic worship
Gisele Bündchen's Vogue cover in March 2023 sparked a social media frenzy (Getty Images) When Gisele Bündchen appeared on an Italian Vogue cover in March 2023, the photograph immediately ignited a storm of social media reaction — not for fashion praise, but for conspiracy chatter. What began as a striking editorial image quickly ballooned into accusations and viral comparisons that linked the pose to occult imagery, turning a routine magazine moment into a short-lived culture war. How Gisele Bündchen's Vogue cover sparked conspiracy chatter The image, shot by Brazilian photographer Rafael Pavarotti, showed Gisele Bündchen in a stylized, dramatic pose that some viewers compared to historical depictions of Baphomet. Online users pointed to hand gestures, wardrobe choices and color palettes as 'evidence,' and within hours the post that circulated on Twitter and other platforms was filled with speculation. A handful of commentators even dove into etymology and symbolism — linking her name and the photograph to more sensational claims — which amplified the controversy beyond any editorial intent. Why the backlash didn't derail Gisele Bündchen's career Two things stopped the story from sticking. First, there was no credible evidence tying Bündchen to anything beyond a fashion shoot; the claims were conjecture dressed up as proof. Second, the episode came amid intense public interest in her personal life following her high-profile split from Tom Brady, which primed audiences to read extra meaning into ordinary moments. Bündchen remained publicly silent, a common choice for established figures facing internet storms — and continued to book campaigns and covers, demonstrating the resilience of a long-standing career. Looking back, the Vogue kerfuffle is a textbook example of how images travel differently in the social media age: editorial art can be reframed into controversy within hours. As a throwback, it's a reminder that viral outrage often tells us more about the platform dynamics and cultural moment than about the subject herself. Also Read: 'Tom is acting bitter': Tom Brady's reflections on work and parenting allegedly reopened rift with ex-wife Gisele Bündchen In Bündchen's case, the controversy faded quickly, leaving her professional momentum intact and the photo as an odd footnote in an otherwise illustrious modeling legacy.
