Her fans also requested others to protect her from 'nazar".
Draped in a rich red ensemble, Janhvi Kapoor embodied the timeless charm of an Indian bride while adding her own touch of modern glamour. The outfit featured intricate embroidery, delicate embellishments, and a graceful silhouette that perfectly complemented her frame. She completed the look with statement jewellery, including a maang teeka and heavy earrings, along with traditional kaleeras that dangled beautifully from her wrists.
Masaba Gupta also detailed out the lehenga from her latest collection. 'For the bride who dreamt of seeing herself in a classic red for her 'Shaadi'. The lehenga is an interplay of shades of red and patches of tissues, the nature and heritage inspired motifs like 'Mithi Makaai', 'Gul Jharokha' and 'Kashmiri Kali' come alive with hand embroidery to narrate a story of the •Sabr• that enables growth, the •Shukr• that keeps one going and the •Sukoon• that follows. Paired with a red veil, its rounded edge delicately fanned out, hand-embroidered with the timeless 'Pankh Bagh' motifs," read the description on Masaba's page. Take a look:

Anu Malik's Brother Daboo Malik REACTS To His MeToo Allegations: 'We Couldn't Handle The Pain'
Daboo Malik opens up about brother Anu Malik's MeToo allegations, recalling the family's emotional struggle and the challenges they faced during the controversy. Anu Malik faced serious sexual harassment accusations during the MeToo movement, made by singers Sona Mohapatra, Neha Bhasin, Alisha Chinai and others. Now, his younger brother, music composer Daboo Malik, has opened up about how the family coped with the controversy. Speaking to journalist Vickey Lalwani, Daboo recalled the difficult period. 'It shattered us as a family. He was also taken aback. We couldn't handle the pain he went through at the time with so many people targeting him. We supported him emotionally. We saw to it that he got back in terms of work and meetings. As a family, I couldn't pass any judgement. One should not. He saw a very difficult time. I have supported him on an individual level because when you see someone going through so much, it was quite a setback for him." 'Our Parents Couldn't Understand What Was Happening' Daboo revealed that their elderly parents struggled to process the situation. 'They couldn't understand what was happening. They were in their '80s." When asked if it became difficult for him and younger brother Abu Malik to face people, Daboo said, 'We give it too much importance. I don't think we are stars. He is not a Shah Rukh Khan or a superstar. We are musicians. Unnecessarily, we keep talking about someone on social media and end up giving them a position. I don't think we are that important to even have this conversation." Anu Malik's MeToo Case In October 2018, during India's MeToo movement, multiple women accused Anu Malik of sexual harassment. Singer Shweta Pandit claimed Malik made an unwanted pass at her when she was 15. Lyricist Sameer supported Malik, denying the incident. Sona Mohapatra and Neha Bhasin also accused him of predatory behaviour, while Hema Sardesai defended him. Malik denied all allegations, but public backlash forced him to leave Indian Idol Season 10 as a judge. Alisha Chinai, who had previously sued Malik for molestation in the 1990s, supported the fresh allegations. In 2019, Malik briefly returned as a judge on Season 11 but stepped down again, citing inability to focus on work. On January 17, 2020, the National Commission for Women closed the case due to lack of substantial evidence, though it stated it could be reopened if new evidence emerged.

Superman OTT Release: When And Where To Watch The DC Superhero Film Online
Last Updated: James Gunn confirms Superman's digital release on August 15 after the film smashes US box office records, becoming the highest-grossing Superman movie. James Gunn has officially announced the digital release date for Superman (2025), just as Warner Bros. confirmed the film's record-breaking performance at the US box office. The DC reboot, directed by Gunn, has become the highest-grossing Superman film ever in the United States, grossing over $331 million domestically and $581.1 million worldwide, according to IMDb. The movie has now completed a month in theaters and is still drawing audiences, but fans will soon be able to watch it from the comfort of their homes. Superman Digital Release Date and Platforms Taking to social media platform X, Gunn wrote: '#Superman is coming to your homes this Friday, 8/15. Available now for pre-order. Or catch it while it's still in theaters!" According to The Wrap, starting August 15, Superman (2025) will be available on streaming platforms such as Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at Home. Fans who prefer a physical copy can mark their calendars for September 23, when the 4K UHD, Blu-ray, and DVD editions will hit stores. Despite its massive success in the US, Gunn admitted that the film underperformed internationally, attributing it to Superman's relatively lower global popularity compared to Batman and 'a certain amount of anti-American sentiment around the world." Box Office Triumph and What's Next Warner Bros. confirmed to IGN that Superman has overtaken all previous entries in the franchise to claim the top spot in US box office history for the character. The film also holds the title for the highest-grossing superhero release of the year domestically. Gunn's reboot focuses on a fresh interpretation of the Man of Steel, aiming to reinvigorate the DC Universe's cinematic future. With Superman's strong domestic reception and upcoming home release, fans who missed it in theaters will soon get their chance to experience the new chapter. Whether streaming on August 15 or waiting for the Blu-ray on September 23, Gunn's Superman is set to reach an even wider audience in the weeks ahead.

‘Sholay' ushered in tech revolution, changed movie experience for ever
Kolkata: On a cool Oct morning in 1975, nearly two months after 'Sholay' hit Bombay and Ahmedabad screens, the film finally unspooled at Kolkata's Jyoti Cinema. The delay hardly mattered. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now What followed was nothing short of cinematic history — a run that lasted 103 weeks, a week short of two years, and rewrote the rulebook for how the city experienced movies. "For Kolkata audiences, 'Sholay' was not just a film; it was an event, an initiation into a new era of spectacle," said Jyoti Choukhani, owner of Bharat Laxmi Studio and Navina Cinema Hall. Movie halls needed superior projection quality to have that effect. Thus, the upgrades were far from cosmetic. In the mid-1970s, most Indian films were shot in 35 mm, but Sholay was converted to 70 mm with stereophonic sound in London — a process impossible to do in India at the time, Choukhani added. Jyoti's technical preparedness meant that when Kolkata finally got 'Sholay', it wasn't just screening a film, it was experiencing an imported technological marvel. The original owners of Jyoti, the Mansata family, went to extraordinary lengths to ensure that the viewing experience matched the grandeur of the film, said Asish Banerjee, the current secretary of the Eastern India Motion Picture Association (EIMPA). They installed a massive 70 mm screen — one of the few in eastern India — and a state-of-the-art stereophonic sound system tailored for 'Sholay'. "I vividly recall the scene where Amitabh tosses the coin and it lands on its edge," said longtime moviegoer Gaurav Gayen, now in his early 70s. "The sound was so sharp and the screen so large, it felt as if the coin landed right at my feet." "My parents' wedding anniversary is always remembered as 'the year Sholay came'," chuckled film-buff Anirban Chatterjee. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now "It became a time marker for our lives." Jyoti's success with 'Sholay' also underscored how a well-equipped cinema could draw repeat crowds and sustain long runs without deficit matinee shows — rare in Kolkata's Hindi film circuit. Not only Jyoti, 'Sholay' was in high demand across Bengal. "Even at Berachampa, our hall (Banirupa) ran housefull for months together after my father managed a print after a long struggle. I still remember how the movie brought fortune to my family," said Subhas Sen, now EIMPA vice-president. His is one of the few theatres from the 'Sholay' era that still survives the flux. Industry insiders note that 'Sholay' also changed the economics for exhibitors. "A film of that scale meant better ticket pricing, longer bookings, and stable revenue for nearly two years," said a retired cinema distributor. "It gave theatres the confidence to invest in sound, projection, and seating." Off-screen, the film's record-breaking run coincided with the coining of the term 'Bollywood' and a redefinition of Hindi commercial cinema. Gabbar Singh's "Kitne aadmi the?" and Jai-Veeru's friendship anthem entered everyday speech. Britannia even used Gabbar in a biscuit ad — the first time a Hindi film villain was tapped to sell a consumer product. Looking back, the story of 'Sholay' in Kolkata is as much about new cinema vision as it is about the film itself. By marrying technological ambition with a once-in-a-generation film, the Mansatas gave the city a cinematic memory that still echoes, stereophonically, through time.
