Renuka Shahane makes a strong comment on the Hindi-Marathi language row: ‘Just slapping two or three people, it's not going to help the language
There's been a huge debate surrounding the language and how the citizens of Maharashtra must know Marathi. Several celebs have given their opinions on it. Now actress
Renuka Shahane
has also made a strong statement regarding the debate.
Shahane said on 'InControversial With Pooja Chaudhri' podcast, 'If you are in a place for a very long time, it's a good thing to understand the local language, the local culture and be respectful more than anything else…It's not about the speaking of it, much more than the intention of wanting to, you know, respect it.
I do not like people who do not feel the necessity to be accommodating of the local language and local culture.
'
She added, 'I do not like violence at all, you know; I do not like the fact that people can be rude about it. Going into a place where Marathi is not spoken and just slapping two or three people, it's not going to help the language in any way.'
Recently, Renuka's husband Ashutosh Rane also spoke about it. He said, 'Marathi maajhya mulanchi maatru bhasha aahe aani maajhi bayko chi pan tar tumhi chinta nako kara.

(Marathi is the mother tongue of my children and my wife, so don't worry).' He added, 'Mera personal jo maanna hai, woh yeh hai ki bhasha jo hoti hai, woh samvaad ka vishay hoti hai; bhasha kabhi bhi vivaad ka vishay nahin hoti. Toh Bharatvarsh jo hai, woh itna paripakv aur itna adbhut desh hai, jahan par isne saari cheezon ko sweekar kiya hai aur samvaad mein vishwas rakhta hai.
Bharat kabhi bhi vivaad mein vishwas nahin rakhta. (My personal belief is that language is always a subject of communication, never a subject of conflict. That's why our country, India, is such a mature and wonderful place, where it has accepted everything and believes in dialogue and trust. India has never believed in conflict.)"

'I fell in love': Taylor Swift recalls first-date question that stunned Travis Kelce and fulfilled her teenage dream
Taylor Swift revealed on New Heights how Travis Kelce's bold attempt to connect with her during the Eras Tour led to their romance (Getty Images Taylor Swift's surprise debut on New Heights didn't just feed the fandom—it stitched together the meet-cute, the mishaps, and the moment a friendship bracelet almost became a plot device. In a rare, relaxed tell-all, she traced how a tight end with a plan accidentally walked straight into one of her teenage daydreams. Taylor Swift's first-date confession and Travis Kelce 's rom-com move Taylor Swift cheerfully credited the show for kick-starting their story: 'This podcast got me a boyfriend,' she said, recalling Travis Kelce's bold attempt to connect during her 2023 Kansas City stop on the Eras Tour. He didn't have a meet-and-greet, and—by her account—'threw a man-tantrum' about it. What read like rom-com bravado to Swift felt oddly familiar to anyone who grew up on '80s movies. 'It was such a wild romantic gesture to be like, 'I wanna date you!' This dude didn't get a meet-and-greet, and he's making it everyone's problem. That's what I thought at first.' He turned up with Patrick Mahomes, plotted around 'the elevator lady,' and even planned to hand her a friendship bracelet with his number—'Like it's 1973,' she laughed. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Kate Middleton Reportedly Taking Royal Split 'Badly' Crowdy Fan Undo Looking back, Swift admitted the audacity hit a nerve in the best way: the kind of earnest grand gesture 'I've been writing about since I was a teenager.' From 'is he crazy?' to 'thank you, New Heights'—and why it worked Jason Kelce asked the obvious: how did she know Travis wasn't actually unhinged? Swift smiled at the memory of realizing his intent was genuine: 'It was wild, but it worked. I'm glad it worked I'm just circling back to 'New Heights' to say thank you for this,' she said, cupping Travis' face as he blushed. The charm wasn't fame or flash—it was the low-key, get-to-know-you energy behind the theatrics. The first-date football fumble that made them both laugh harder Taylor Swift on Reclaiming Her Masters, Wrapping The Eras Tour, and The Life of a Showgirl | NHTV Swift also confessed to the question that stopped Kelce cold. 'On our first date, I legitimately asked him what it was like when the Chiefs played the Eagles in the Super Bowl, and he looked across the line of scrimmage and saw his brother standing five feet away from him,' she said. Reality check: that scenario can't happen—and he couldn't even respond. 'He didn't even look at me,' Swift laughed. 'I now know what an insane question that was… I thought everyone was out there at the same time. I didn't know what a first down was… what a tight end was… I fell in love with it, I became obsessed with it.'

Nupur Sanon showcases effortless on-camera charm
Nupur Sanon, sister of Bollywood star Kriti Sanon, is making waves again—this time in both fashion and film. After debuting in Tollywood with Tiger Nageswara Rao alongside Ravi Teja, Nupur took a step back from acting when the film underperformed. She turned her focus to building a clothing brand with Kriti, steadily establishing herself in the fashion industry. Recently, Nupur caught fans' attention with a striking forest photoshoot. She wore a white-and-black polka-dot dress paired with a pink top, elevated by a thigh-high slit for a bold edge. Silver accessories, mirrored sunglasses that glistened in the monsoon light, and a matching mini silver bag completed the chic ensemble. The shoot showcased not only her fashion sense but also her effortless on-camera charm. Now, Nupur is set to return to acting with her Hindi debut Noorani Chehra, currently in production. Fans, impressed by her growing confidence and stylish public appearances, are eager to see her back on screen. Balancing her entrepreneurial pursuits in fashion with her acting aspirations, Nupur seems poised for a promising second innings in cinema—combining glamour, talent, and business acumen in equal measure.
