Sunny Kaushal Says He Wrote 'Mid Air Freeverse' Mid-Flight With Just Pen And Pad: ‘It's A Glimpse Into...'
In an era where actors are constantly pushing boundaries, Sunny Kaushal has made an unexpected yet powerful musical debut — and he did it while flying 35,000 feet above the ground. The actor, known for his charming on-screen presence, has turned rapper with Mid Air Freeverse, a fiery new Punjabi track that blends hip-hop beats with bhangra energy and introspective lyricism. Sunny Kaushal surprises fans with Mid Air Freeverse, a bold Punjabi rap written during a flight from Delhi to Bombay. The actor-turned-rapper opens up about writing the lyrics mid-air, embracing his alter ego Sunsunnykhez, and blending hip-hop with bhangra energy. What's even more intriguing is how the song came to life. Sunny Kaushal revealed that he wrote the entire track on a flight from Delhi to Bombay, scribbling away with a pen and pad in hand. 'It's a Punjabi track that blends my musical loves — hip-hop, rap, Punjabi folk, poetry. Even though it's hip-hop at heart, it carries a bhangra vibe. I wrote it mid-flight, literally. Naming it was tricky, since there's no hook or catchy chorus — just 64 bars of rap. So Mid Air Freeverse felt right — it captured the rawness of writing in mid-air and the free-form style," he said. advetisement

Parents scammed in fake ‘Paris Kids Fashion Week,' INR 44 lakh lost in Gucci, Dior glam trap!
A Chinese company orchestrated a deceptive scheme, falsely presenting children's fashion shows as part of Paris Kids Fashion Week since 2020. The firm exploited parents' aspirations by charging exorbitant fees for participation and counterfeit costumes, amassing significant revenue. A Chinese company has come under fire for orchestrating an elaborate scam involving fake children's fashion shows, falsely branded as Paris Kids Fashion Week. Since 2020, this firm has misled hundreds of families by claiming affiliation with the prestigious Paris Fashion Week, while using images of iconic landmarks like the Louvre and invoking the names of luxury houses such as Dior and Gucci to appear legitimate. According to The South China Morning Post, the company charged parents 6,000 yuan (around ₹71,000) per child to participate in these runway shows. In some cases, families paid even more for costumes, reportedly upwards of 10,000 yuan (over ₹1.20 lakh). Many of the outfits were later revealed to be counterfeit. Events were hosted in cities like Shanghai, Paris, and Toronto, and the company collected an estimated 367,000 yuan (over ₹44 lakh) in registration fees from unsuspecting parents. The scam was finally exposed after Gucci's legal team filed a complaint in 2023. The Shanghai Market Regulatory Bureau launched an investigation, confirming the fraudulent activities. The company had been using fake logos like Gucc100 and Gucc101, misusing trademarks and misleading customers. As a result, the business has now been fined 600,000 yuan (approximately ₹71 lakh). During the probe, a company staff member admitted that the children's costumes - many of them fake designer replicas, were sourced online. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like They Lost Their Money - Learn From Their Lesson Expertinspector Click Here Undo While the owner, identified as Huang, claimed the clothes were only used for photo shoots and not sold, authorities still deemed this a serious case of trademark infringement.

Its social media presence remains intact, with pages on Instagram and Facebook still live, although the last posts date back to 2023 and show minimal engagement. Sunny Kaushal Flashes a Smile in Andheri Chinese social media users reacted strongly to the revelations. 'Such phenomena are quite common these days,' one user commented, pointing out how many extracurricular training centres prey on parents' aspirations. Another noted, 'The company was exploiting the desperate need of parents to make their kids successful and famous.'

Retailers relieved at police commissioner's clarification on when to investigate crimes
Retail crime group chair Sunny Kaushal. Photo: RNZ / Samuel Rillstone The head of the government's retail crime advisory group is relieved police commissioner Richard Chambers has scrapped a controversial directive on shoplifting. A internal police memo obtained by RNZ told staff not to investigate crimes under a certain dollar value , prompting outrage from the retail sector before the directive was publicly scrapped on Tuesday. It included shoplifting under $500 , petrol drive-offs under $150 and online fraud under $1000. Retail crime group chair Sunny Kaushal said the clarity was very reassuring for victims around the country. "The clear comments from the police commissioner show police's commitment to responding to retail crime," he said. "And the clarity he provided on the thresholds for investigating shoplifting offences will greatly reassure victims of retail crime across the country." He said the confusion caused by the memo should not overshadow the great work of many police officers, particularly in Tauranga and Gisborne where Kaushal felt the response to retail crime was particularly strong. "There are pockets of outstanding practice across the country ... So the work that those police forces are doing should not be discounted by the confusion created by this directive," he said. But Kaushal was surprised to learn Chambers had not been made aware of the memo until its contents were published by RNZ. "That was a bit surprising, and I also understand the police commissioner is still new and he's still trying to settle [in]," he said. "This directive came like a bolt out of the blue, and the retailers I had been talking to were seriously concerned. I was getting so many calls."
