Did Janhvi Kapoor rebuff Ishaan Khatter on the Cannes red carpet? Homebound co-star Vishal Jethwa defends actor, says, ‘She can never do something so disrespectful'
Recently, Janhvi Kapoor, Ishaan Khatter, and Vishal Jethwa made headlines for their fashion statement at Cannes 2025. The actors were present at the French Riviera for the premiere of their film Homebound. A gesture of Janhvi Kapoor, however, made news for the wrong reason when a section on social media alleged that she rebuffed her Dhadak co-star Ishaan Khatter. In a video that surfaced online, Janhvi appeared to ignore Ishaan, leading everyone to speculate if the two actors had some bad blood. However, their co-star, Vishal Jethwa, spoke to Zoom TV and defended Janhvi, clarifying that there is no 'awkwardness' or 'cold war' between the two as assumed.

See photos Talking about the allegations where Janhvi appeared to be rude to Ishaan, Vishal said, 'It wasn't true, in fact, at that moment, Ishaan was helping me as I couldn't understand the question. People there talk in French, and I couldn't understand how to even answer them in English. So Ishaan started answering, and till then, I thought I would ask Janhvi what they were asking. We were both discussing that, and people thought we were doing our own thing. I respect Ishaan a lot, and I am very thankful to him, because I get to learn a lot from both Janhvi and Ishaan.' A post shared by Bollywood Feels (@bollywoodfeelss) He even revealed whether both actors were awkward with each other. He said, 'It's all just rumors, there is nothing like that. I have seen Ishaan and Janhvi work together; they are very comfortable with each other. They wish well for one another, and they even speak to each other very nicely. I remember when I was walking holding Janhvi's trail, and when she was climbing on stage, Ishaan offered his hand, but since she was holding her dress, she didn't hold his hand. She is a very sensible girl and can never do something so disrespectful.' Homebound is produced by Karan Johar and written by Neeraj Ghaywan and Sumit Roy. The film received a 9-minute-long standing ovation at Cannes.

Pankaj Tripathi On Fake AI Videos: 'I Am Not Scared...'
Last Updated: Pankaj Tripathi discussed the rise of fake AI videos, stressing meaningful tech use. He believes human emotions hold more value. Actor Pankaj Tripathi, who was recently seen in Criminal Justice 4, spoke honestly about the rise of fake AI-generated videos in a new interview. Pankaj shared what he feels about this growing issue. When asked about fake AI content spreading online, he said in Hindi to Zoom TV, 'I remember reading an article in my childhood about science: is it a boon or a curse? What is it? It is both. If it is used meaningfully, then it is an amazing thing. If it is used meaninglessly or without meaning, then it can be harmful. Any technology should have a meaningful use." He added, 'But if there is technology, then it will have both kinds of uses. The person has to be aware that what they are seeing is generated or real and original. How much you will see and how much you will dissect or understand it? You have to live your life and work too. I am not scared because no matter how much technology evolves, human emotions have a lot of value and that is not going to change." In simple words, Pankaj believes that while technology like AI can be useful, it can also be misused. It depends on how we choose to use it. And even if AI becomes more advanced, he feels that real human feelings will always be more powerful and important. On the work front, Pankaj Tripathi was last seen in Criminal Justice 4, which premiered on May 29 on JioHotstar. Up next, he'll appear in Anurag Basu's upcoming film Metro… In Dino. The film boasts a star-studded cast including Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, Konkona Sen Sharma, Ali Fazal, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Anupam Kher, and Neena Gupta. Produced by T-Series Films and Anurag Basu Productions, Metro… In Dino is set to release in theatres on July 4, 2025. First Published:

India's most expensive song was composed by AR Rahman, made on a budget of Rs..., its name is..., lead actor is... The vibrant and diverse realm of Indian industry is known not just about captivating stories and talented actors; it's also about magnificent songs that stay forever in our hearts and minds. Some of these songs come with a hefty price tag attached to them, showcasing creativity and grandeur like never before. One of these songs isn't just the most expensive in Indian cinema, but also features the biggest superstar of the country. The song was shot in 3D and captured the whole vibe of the sci-fi film. It is none other than the title track Endhira Logathu Sundariye from Rajinikanth's magnums opus drama 2.0 , released in 2018. Directed by Shankar, 2.0 is one of the most expensive Indian films made on an estimated budget of Rs 400 crore, according to Wikipedia. Song Endhira Logathu Sundariye was featured in one of the costliest movies of the time. According to a report by India Times, the song boasted a budget of around Rs 20 crore. It was considered the biggest track ever in Indian cinema, in terms of extravagant scale and budget. The vocals were by Sid Sriram and Shashaa Tirupati with lyrics written by Anantha Sriram. The music was composed by Oscar-winning composer AR Rahman. Ace choreographer Bosco Martis conceptualised the whole song, and gave those captivating moves to actor Rajnikanth and actress Amy Jackson, that settled well with the vibe of the film. Since the song features robots, Bosco said he tried to add the robotic flavour to their moves. As per Zoom TV, the choreographer revealed, 'Honestly, knowing Rajinikanth sir, we had set certain body language for the steps but the grace and energy he possesses, especially in his walk, left all of us in awe of him, including dancers from abroad. He didn't try and get even a single step changed or make it simple. He saw it when we rehearsed and he was ready to go. We executed everything we had planned.' 2.0 starred Akshay Kumar as the villain. A sequel to the 2010 hit film Enthiran , the sci-film featured Rajinikanth in dual roles- Dr Vaseegaran and Chitti, the Robot. The film also starred Sudhanshu Pandey, Adil Hussain and Kalabhavan Shajohn.
