    Shahbaz Taseer, Neha Rajpoot set to tie the knot

    Model Neha Rajpoot and Shahbaz Taseer are reportedly set to marry soon.

    The Moray Saiyaan diva and son of late politician Salman Taseer are often spotted together at public places.

    In December 2020, Shahbaz’s ex-wife Maheen Ghani accused Neha of destroying her marriage.

    She took to Instagram stories and said: “To each their own I guess and whatever makes them happy. Though I do hope that this trend of certain models with married men and vice versa changes. I am divorced now fortunately and wish them peace and healing.”

    The fashion designer remained supportive of her ex-husband when he was abducted. Reunited after five years, the couple welcomed their daughter but due to irreconcilable differences, they announced their divorce.

    Rajpoot responded to the accusations:

    “Lol it’s easy to point out fingers at people who stay quiet, well there is always two sides to a story just because someone is quiet doesn’t mean they are wrong. I’m amazed at how whenever something comes up it’s so easy for people to put on at models calling them homewreckers and totally disregard housewives who when their husbands are away for long, they cheat left, right and centre and then blame the man for moving on. I rest my case here and I wish her peace and love.”

    The duo hasn’t yet officially announced the news of their wedding.

  • ‘I am Sorry’: Priyanka Chopra apologises after severe backlash

    ‘I am Sorry’: Priyanka Chopra apologises after severe backlash

    Transnational actor Priyanka Chopra has apologised for her participation in the CBS show The Activist in the wake of controversy and social media backlash. She said she has been “moved” by the criticism.

    The Quantico actor acknowledged that the show “got it wrong”.

    Earlier CBS had announced a change in The Activist’s format. It will be changed from a competition show to a one-time documentary.

    “I’m happy to know that in this new format, their stories will be the highlight, and I’m proud to collaborate with partners who have their ear to the ground and know when it’s time to hit pause and re-evaluate,” Priyanka said.

    The Activist was announced as involving six “inspiring activists” who will team up with three public figures, namely Usher, Priyanka, and Julianne Hough. The announcement was met with shock, ridicule, and in a few cases, outright disbelief. Many accused the makers of “performance activism” and trivialising the very concept of activism by turning it into cheap entertainment.

    Earlier, a joint statement from CBS and co-producer, non-profit Global Citizen read, “The Activist was designed to show a wide audience the passion, long hours, and ingenuity that activists put into changing the world, hopefully inspiring others to do the same. However, it has become apparent the format of the show as announced distracts from the vital work these incredible activists do in their communities every day. The push for global change is not a competition and requires a global effort.”

    Meanwhile, The White Tiger star has series Citadel and movie The Matrix 4 in her kitty.
