His striking outfit exemplified a blend of symbolism, craftsmanship, and fearless self-expression. The director wore the ivory-hued 'Crescent Palm Trench Coat Set' – a piece that was adorned with Masaba's signature house motifs, including the 'Palm' and 'Matsya', as well as the intricately hand-embroidered 'Son Chand' and 'Stalk of Maize'.

Crafted in 18-karat gold and set with full-cut diamonds, the phrase on the choker translates to 'without fear, without hate, with love.'

Karan Johar says he ‘lost all trust' in Maheep Kapoor after The Traitors; Raj Kundra jokes about using the ‘nepo husband' card
As if the world hadn't already been gripped enough by the globally acclaimed reality show The Traitors, Amazon Prime Video India is set to launch its own adaptation. The official trailer of the show dropped today on YouTube, generating significant buzz, especially with Karan Johar revealed as the host. Speaking at the trailer launch event, Karan described the show as one 'characterised by lies, deceit, betrayal, and a whole lot of drama!' He went on to call its structure 'the best format of any reality show in the world.' Karan also mentioned Maheep Kapoor, who gained notoriety through his Netflix-produced reality series Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives. She returns to reality TV as one of the contestants on The Traitors. Reacting to her involvement, the filmmaker quipped, 'I can't really trust her with anything now,' referencing the deceptive nature of the game. Another prominent face in the lineup is Apoorva Makhija, marking her first public appearance after the India's Got Latent controversy. Speaking at the event, she remarked: 'I think people just think being a red flag is about lying, manipulation and deception, and all of that is true. But to require that, you need brains, which unfortunately most of these people don't have. So I don't know if I'm the biggest red flag, but I use one more brain cell at all times.' Also turning heads was influencer and fashion commentator Sufi Motiwala, who offered a bold self-description: 'You expect me to be nice, but I play dirty in this game. Imagine if Rakhi Sawant and Paris Hilton had a baby — that's what I'm giving on this show, and that is a 10 on 10.' A post shared by SCREEN (@ieentertainment) Among the most unexpected contestants is businessman Raj Kundra. Known for his public appearances in a face mask, he commented on how the mystery surrounding him could work in his favour: 'Jabhi maine mask pehna hai, logon ko laga hai ki main kya chhupaa raha hoon. Ek mystery hai, and that mystery might help me in this game. Ye Kalyug ka show hai Traitors, nobody knows who is your friend and enemy. Toh yahi strategy lekar, I hope jo ye mystery hai woh mujhe help karegi. Aur last but not least, Karan sir host kar rahe hain… toh woh 'nepo husband' waala card toh zarur use karunga (Whenever I've worn the mask, people wonder what I'm hiding. There's a mystery, and that might help me here. This is a show for the age of Kalyug — no one knows who's a friend or enemy. I'm entering with a strategy, and I hope the mystery works in my favour. And since Karan sir is hosting, I'm definitely going to play the 'nepo husband' card).' Making her reality debut is Anshula Kapoor, sister of actor Arjun Kapoor. Reflecting on her persona, she said, 'I might look innocent and calm, I may look cute even, but acting toh humare khoon mein hai… and killing it with a little bit of confidence and a smile on my face is my forte.' Set to premiere on June 12, The Traitors will drop new episodes every Thursday at 8 pm., culminating in a high-stakes grand finale. The show features a fiery lineup of 20 contestants: Anshula Kapoor, Apoorva Makhija, Ashish Vidyarthi, Elnaaz Norouzi, Harsh Gujral, Jannat Zubair, Janvi Gaur, Jasmine Bhasin, Karan Kundrra, Lakshmi Manchu, Maheep Kapoor, Mukesh Chhabra, Nikita Luther, Purav Jha, Raftaar, Raj Kundra, Sahil Salathia, Sudhanshu Pandey, Sufi Motiwala, and Uorfi Javed — each navigating a game built on deception, manipulation, and strategy.

Conor Maynard breaks silence on Traitors star baby drama and 'traumatic' fallout
Connor Maynard has spoken out about the moment he wasn't the father of Traitors star Charlotte Chilton's baby for the first time Conor Maynard has spoken out after discovering that he was not the dad of The Traitors star Charlotte Chilton's baby. In his first TV interview, on Friday's This Morning, the singer spoke out about the moment he found out he wasn't the father for the first time. In October, Traitors star Charlotte Chilton gave birth to her first child, Penelope. In November, the first-time mum, who had publicly claimed Conor as daughter Penelope's father, alleged he is not involved with the baby. However after months of drama, back in March, Conor put out a statement to say he had taken a paternity test and was not the father. He wrote at the time: "Earlier this week, I took a paternity test regarding Charlotte Chilton's baby girl, Penelope, in the presence of her legal representative. Today I've received the test results which confirm that I am not Penelope's father. "I am glad that the speculation can finally be put to an end. All I would ask is that people act with kindness in response to this news - there is a child at the heart of all of this and that should not be forgotten. I wish Charlotte and her family all the best. Conor." Now, Conor, who had previously spoke out about his struggles with anxiety at the time, told hosts Paddy McGuiness and Alison Hammond about the struggles he faced during that time. "The last year has been really difficult, and mental health has been something I've struggled with for a big portion of my life," he began. "This most recent year has definitely been up there in terms of my experience and battle with it. "A lot of things have contributed to why things have been so difficult," the star continued. Paddy then went on to ask Connor how he felt when he found out he wasn't the father, but "funnily enough it wasn't an instant relief," he told hosts. "I actually felt like I was going to have a massive panic attack the second I found out," Connor admitted. "That's the diffcult truth about mental health. When something traumatic happens to you, the second that traumatic event stops you don't think, 'Oh I'm fine now.' It doesn't work out like that." Although Conor's friends wanted to go out for a drink that night, the star admitted he didn't feel up to it, and opted to stay in with his girlfriend instead. Summing up his emotions, Connor continued: "It was confusion, and feeling like, 'Why did that have to happen?'" Concluding, the singer said: "When the result came in, it was unbelievable, but it wasn't instant relief. It took a lot of time to process and really understand." This Morning reached out to Charlotte's representative to offer them a right of reply, however, they declined to comment at this time.
