Career Remark Opinion film Actor Persona stars Salman Khan's cheeky reply on nepotism: ‘Kangana Ranaut's daughter will enter films or politics?

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan, known for his larger-than-life persona and unfiltered opinions, recently shared his thoughts on the ongoing nepotism debate in the film industry. During a press event for his upcoming film Sikandar, the actor tackled the subject with his signature humor and candidness. Speaking at the conference on March 26, 2025, Salman dismissed the idea of anyone being completely self-made, emphasizing the importance of teamwork and opportunities shaped by circumstances. He acknowledged that his own journey in the industry was influenced by his father, veteran writer Salim Khan, whose decision to move from Indore to Mumbai played a crucial role in shaping his (Salman) career. Reflecting on this, he pointed out that without his father’s move, he might have been leading a completely different life in Indore. The discussion took an amusing turn when the conversation shifted to star kids entering Bollywood. When Raveena Tandon’s daughter, Rasha, was mentioned as an example, Salman misheard and jokingly referenced Kangana Ranaut, playfully speculating whether her future child would enter films or politics. He said, “Ab Kangana ki beti aayengi, to films karengi ya politics join karengi? To unko bhi…” His lighthearted remark added a moment of laughter to the conversation, showcasing his trademark wit.

Action security performer social consequences Videos Colleges 'Policing towards Orwellian': On Meerut Police's passport cancellation warning for Namaz violators, NDA minister takes a dig

Meerut Police issued a directive concerning this year’s Eid namaz, imposing strict restrictions on where it can be performed. The police stated that the prayers would be limited to designated locations such as nearby mosques and the ground at Faiz-e-Aam Inter College. This decision is part of a broader crackdown aimed at curbing the practice of offering namaz on public streets, which had been a point of contention last year. Meerut's Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP), Ayush Vikram Singh, warned that any violations would lead to immediate legal consequences. «Violators will face immediate legal action, including FIRs and potential arrests. We will also initiate proceedings to cancel their passport and driving license,» Singh said. The police have implemented an extensive security plan to ensure that the restrictions are followed, involving drones, video surveillance, and the deployment of forces such as the Provincial Armed Constabulary (PAC) and Rapid Action Force (RAF) in key areas of the city. Singh also referred to last year's incidents, noting that over 200 worshippers had been registered in cases for offering namaz on public streets.

COST Citi Target hospital patient rights Mumbai doctor bombarded with weight-loss drug Mounjaro enquires. Don't ignore his advice

Dr. Rahul Baxi is a Mumbai-based diabetologist, and his patients are rushing to him to ask about the new drug that claims to help with weight loss. In a recent tweet, he shared that many come in with the same question: can they start taking the much-hyped medication to shed extra kilos? India’s fascination with the new Rs 16,000-a-month weight-loss injection is in full swing, with people hoping for a quick fix. However, Dr. Baxi emphasizes that the injection isn’t a magic solution for everyone. Without essential lifestyle changes like a balanced diet, regular walking or exercise, and strength training, the results may not be as effective. He stresses that the medication should only be used under a doctor’s supervision and prescribed to the right patients for the best outcomes. Netizens have shared mixed reactions to the buzz around the new weight-loss injection. Some highlighted the effectiveness of traditional methods, with one person mentioning how regular yoga, evening walks, and home-cooked meals helped lower their HbA1c from 6.2 to 5.8, despite the challenges of maintaining a strict diet in a food-loving city like Indore.

Target Ball Remark WhatsApp stage Nicholas Pooran joins elite club as second player to cross 1000 runs for Lucknow Super Giants

Lucknow Super Giants in the Indian Premier League (IPL). The explosive batsman achieved this feat with a dazzling 70 off just 26 balls during his side's dominant victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad. Pooran's swashbuckling knock dismantled Sunrisers' 190-run defense and left the crowd at their home ground stunned. His blistering innings was key to breaking the back of Hyderabad’s total, as he unleashed a series of powerful strokes before eventually being dismissed by SRH captain Pat Cummins. By the time Pooran made his way back to the dressing room, he had accumulated 1002 runs in just 31 matches for LSG, positioning him as the second-highest run-scorer in the franchise's history. His impressive tally places him just behind former captain KL Rahul, who holds the record with 1410 runs in 38 matches. Pooran's remarkable achievement comes at an average of 45.54 and a strike rate of 184.53. Known for his effortless power-hitting, Pooran has become synonymous with fast-paced innings in the IPL. He has crossed the fifty-run mark in fewer than 20 deliveries on four occasions, setting a record for the fastest half-century by any player in the competition. Australia’s Travis Head and Jake Fraser-McGurk are tied for second, having achieved the same feat three times each. Notably, Pooran reached his fifty in just 18 balls during this game, marking the second-fastest fifty for LSG, only behind his own 15-ball effort against Royal Challengers Bangalore in 2023.

Action students Universities Department Discrimination Schools Investigations Stanford, Cal and UCLA investigated in Trump's anti-DEI campaign

Trump administration has opened investigations into the admissions policies at Stanford University and three campuses within the University of California system, including UC Berkeley, UCLA and UC Irvine, the Department of Justice said Thursday. U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi has directed the department's Civil Rights Division to investigate whether the schools' policies comply with the 2023 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that ended affirmative action in college admissions, the department said in a statement. Since taking office in January, President Donald Trump has attempted to dismantle diversity, equity and inclusion programs that his administration says exclude white and Asian American students. The administration has warned schools and colleges they could lose federal money over «race-based preferences» in admissions, hiring, scholarships and all aspects of campus life.
