Mukesh Khanna Calls Out Jaya Bachchan's Behaviour Amid Parliament Video Row: ‘Journalists Ke Sath…'
Mukesh Khanna slammed Jaya Bachchan's behavior, saying her way of talking to journalists is wrong and alleging she speaks in Rajya Sabha only to oppose Modi. Jaya Bachchan has found herself in hot water after a video of her pushing a fan outside Parliament went viral. Many questioned her behaviour, and now Mukesh Khanna has also called out Jaya Bachchan. In a recent conversation, the actor shared that she is wrong in the way the actress in general talks to journalists. While chatting with FilmyGyan, and while calling out Jaya's behaviour, Mukesh said, 'Aaj kal ye jo unka journalists ke sath 'kya kar raha hai tu, kon hai, kya chahiye, this is wrong. Aap inke liye jee rahe ho, aur aajkal ye jo Rajya Sabha mein bolti hai mujhe aisa lagta hai ya to ye bigad gayi hai ghar se, ya Modi ke khilaf bolna hai isliye hi bolti hai. Aise-aisa argument deti hai jo mujhe nahi ache lagte.'" ('These days, the way she talks to journalists — 'what are you doing, who are you, what do you want, this is wrong' — you are living for them, and now when she speaks in the Rajya Sabha, I feel as if either she is upset at home or she just wants to speak against Modi. That's why she gives such arguments, which I don't like.") Why is Jaya Bachchan getting backlash? Actress-turned-politician Jaya Bachchan lost her cool on Tuesday when a man tried to take a selfie with her at the Constitution Club in New Delhi. A video of the incident surfaced on social media and left everyone shocked. In the clip, the Samajwadi Party MP was seen pushing a man trying to take a selfie with her. She also said, 'Kya kar rahe hain aap? (What are you doing?) What is this?" Kangana Ranaut and Ashoke Pandit call out Jaya Bachchan Taking to her Instagram stories, Kangana Ranaut wrote, 'Most spoilt and privileged woman. People put up with her tantrums/nonsense just because she is Amitabh Bachchan ji's wife. That Samajwadi topi looks like a rooster comb, while she looks like a fighting cock!! Such disgrace and shame." Filmmaker Ashoke Pandit took to his Instagram and said that the move was 'highly condemnable" and showed 'humiliation towards people who have elected her to serve them." He added, 'A public servant can't afford to be sulking and irritated 24×7. One expects humility and compassion from an artist of her calibre who has been loved by her fans, who are responsible for providing her this stature and position."

ED raids Tamil Nadu Minister I Periyasamy, son in money laundering case
Last Updated: Chennai, Aug 16 (PTI) The Enforcement Directorate on Saturday searched multiple premises linked to Tamil Nadu Minister and DMK leader I Periyasamy and his MLA son as part of a money laundering investigation, official sources said. The raids were undertaken in Chennai and Dindigul under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA). The premises of I P Sentilkumar, the son of the 72-year-old minister for rural development, panchayats and panchayat unions, were also searched, according to the sources. Periyasamy represents the Athoor assembly constituency in Dindigul district. There was no immediate comment from Periyasamy or the DMK on the ED action. The money laundering investigation stems from an April order of the Madras High Court, which directed a special court in Dindigul to frame charges against Periyasamy and his family members in connection with a Rs 2.1 crore 'disproportionate" assets case. The order came in response to some criminal revision petitions filed by the Directorate of Vigilance and Anti-Corruption (DVAC), challenging a special court order discharging Periyasamy and his family members from the case. The HC also directed the special court to conduct the trial on a day-to-day basis and complete it within six months. The prosecution's case was that Periyasamy had amassed wealth to the tune of Rs 2.1 crore in his name and in the names of his wife, P Suseela and sons P Sentilkumar and P Prabhu, disproportionate to his known sources of income when he was a minister between 2006 and 2010.
