Bollywood actor Arjun Kapoor took to his Instagram handle to slam Malaika Arora’s fake pregnancy news report by media outlet Pinkvilla. The portal reported that Malaika and Arjun Kapoor are expecting their first child together.
Arjun immediately reacted to the news through their social media handles mentioning Pinkvilla and its journalist Nikita Dalvi, and disregarded the reports.
He said, “This is the lowest that you could have gone and you have done it by being casual, insensitive, and absolutely unethical in carrying garbage news. This journalist has been writing such pieces regularly and getting away with it because we tend to ignore these fake gossip articles while they spread across media and become the truth. This is not done. Don’t dare to play with our personal lives.”
In another post, he wrote, “Karma comes after everyone eventually. You cannot get away with screwing people over your whole life, I don’t care who you are. What goes around, comes around. That’s how it works. Sooner or later the universe will serve you the revenge you deserve.”
They have been dating each other for over three years now. The two made it Instagram official a couple of years back in 2019 and do not shy away from posting about each other. Rumours about their wedding have been doing the rounds for quite sometime now.
Arjun initially dated Malaika’s ex-sister-in-law, Arpita and hence Salman Khan broke all ties with him after he started dating Malaika.
Earlier this year the Ishaqzaade star slammed a media outlet for comparing his wealth with Malaika.
Hitting out at the news report, he wrote, “It’s sad & shameful to read a daft headline like this is 2021. Of course, she earns well & has worked for so many years to be in a place not be compared to anyone let alone me.”
An emotionally charged trailer of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s forthcoming Netflix documentary series has been released, as Buckingham Palace reels from a racism incident and during a key visit to the US by the Prince and Princess of Wales.
In the 1 min 12 sec “teaser”, Harry and Meghan share previously unseen intimate photographs, some showing the duchess apparently crying, with one scene showing Harry with his head tilted back as his wife appears to wipe away her tears with both hands.
Calling the Sussexes ‘unpredictable’, Richard Fitzwilliams said that the trailer’s release was ‘obviously timed to take away from the Wales’ trip to Boston’, adding that Meghan and Harry ‘like control their narrative’.
In the teaser, an unseen interviewer asks: “Why did you want to make this documentary?” a montage of black and white photographs flashes up. One shows Meghan curled up on a chair, head in hands on the phone and seemingly distressed. Harry says: “No one sees what is happening behind closed doors.”
The trailer then cuts to a photograph of a stern-looking Kate, with William sitting beside her, and Meghan behind, taken at the Commonwealth Day service before the Sussexes left the UK.
Further photographs show Meghan sombre in a black hat, taken at the funeral of Queen Elizabeth, and another of a bank of press photographers, as Harry continues: “I had to do everything I could to protect my family.” A picture shows Meghan seated in a car seemingly wiping away tears.
Meghan tells the interviewer: “When the stakes were this high, doesn’t it make more sense to hear our story from us?”
Other, happier, personal photographs show Harry playing guitar for his wife, the couple hiking with him holding picked flowers, wading in a stream with their dogs, a pregnant Meghan in silhouette, dancing at their wedding, and sharing a kiss in their kitchen.
In an accompanying statement, Netflix described “Harry & Meghan” as a “never-before-seen look at one of the most discussed couples in history”.
The timing of the trailer is not the best for Buckingham Palace, which is still dealing with the aftermath of the resignation of Lady Susan Hussey, one of the late Queen’s ladies-in-waiting, after she questioned the charity founder Ngozi Fulani about where she was “really from” at a palace reception. The palace and William, her godson, described the comments as “deeply regrettable” and “unacceptable”.
Federal Minister for Climate Change, Sherry Rehman, has been included in theFinancial Times list of ’25 most influential women of 2022′.
The first minister of Scotland- Nicola Ferguson Sturgeon—one of the article’s writers—termed Sherry Rehman a “negotiator with grit”.
Describing the climate minister, Ferguson said, “Rehman’s negotiating skills, her pragmatism in navigating the blocks that developed countries put in her way and her campaigning voice were instrumental in the progress on loss and damage at COP27.”
According to her, at the United Nations Climate Change Conference COP27, Sherry Rehman gave a powerful account of the devastating floods in Pakistan
“I have no doubt that Sherry will continue in her campaign for climate justice, for global financial reform and for the vital funds required to secure a future for those parts of Pakistan that will suffer the impact of this year’s floods for a long time to come”, the Scotland minister added.
Apart from Sherry, the list also includes the women of Iran who “have been denied for too long: dignity, personal bodily autonomy, the freedom to live safely in their own country”. Women in Iran are protesting since September when a 22-year-old woman, Mahsa Amini, was snatched off the street by the “morality police” for allegedly failing to wear the hijab correctly. She died in police custody.
Tennis player Serena Williams, the world’s youngest elected leader Prime Minister (PM) of Finland Sanna Marin, United States (US) Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson and others are also on the list.

He said that it’s wrong that Feroz and his lawyers are saying that the documents are fake, we have enough pictures and documents which we don’t want to show, we didn’t want to show previous pictures too but they had to come out because it was a court document which is public, he said, “the lawyers are saying that the pictures are of an eye allergy, well, an eye allergy, the eye doesn’t swell, also, they are not talking about the forensic of the pictures. He said that there are many pictures of Aliza that they have as evidence. He also said that the court didn’t even discuss the abuse, he said that they will be providing further evidence.

Saboor Aly, who earlier expressed her support for Syeda, liked this post on Instagram.
Mariyam Nafees was the first one to react to the heartbreaking visuals on her Instagram story.

Even the drama’s director, Musadiq Malik had several unpleasant remarks to state about him.
Netizens have also expressed their support to Aliza for sharing such vulnerable moments, publicly.
In her public statement, Aliza Sultan Khan wrote, “Our marriage of four years was an utter chaos. In addition to a continuous physical and psychological violence during this period, I had to endure infidelity, blackmailing and degradation at my husband’s hands. After careful consideration, I have reached the sad conclusion that I cannot spend my whole life in this horrific manner. The welfare and wellbeing of my children have played a significant role in this decision. I do not want them to grow up in a toxic, unhealthy and violent household. I’m afraid that their mental development and approach to life would be negatively impacted by exposure to such hostile environment. No kid should ever have to grow up feeling violence to be a normal part of relationships. I would rather teach them that no wounds are too deep to be healed, no scars too shameful to be concealed at the cost of one’s safety.”
Alizay revealed in the court that Feroze used to hit her a lot and even put a gun on her head once to traumatise her.
Aliza also requested that Feroze should pay one lac per month, for each child. Since her son studies in an expensive private school and her daughter is a new born, so just her milk and diaper expenditure is unaffordable for her as she doesn’t work. However Feroze refused to pay the required amount and stated that he can only provide her with twenty thousand for both children, instead of 2 lacs.

Actor Hamza Ali Abbasi is currently riding high on the success of his Pakistani feature film, The Legend Of Maula Jatt, which has garnered over 150 crores globally. During the promotions of this Bilal Lashari directorial, Hamza exclusively chatted with The Current, during which he responded to Ayeza Khan’s cheeky comment about him being a difficult co-star.
Three years back, Ayeza stated on the YouTube show, Momina’s Mixed Plate that it wasn’t easy to work with Hamza on their blockbuster drama, Pyarey Afzal. The Laapata diva mentioned, “Yes I have worked with Hamza but it’s really difficult to work with him because he laughs a lot, especially whenever there is a serious scene with him which requires certain emotions, he keeps on laughing.”
Khan mentioned that Man Mayal star’s non-serious conduct makes it difficult for her to perform seriously in a scene.
She added, “I once asked him kya kar rahay ho? Tum nahi dogay mujhe acting cues, tum bilkul na dena mujhe, Nadeem Bhai (director) dengien cues. So Nadeem Baig used to give me my acting cues and hence I started referring to him as Pyarey Nadeem and that’s how I did the entire serial.
Hamza and Ayeza later reunited for a television commercial.
Hamza’s Response
On being asked to respond to Ayeza’s light-hearted statement by the host Uzair Anwer, Hamza commented, “I stay my true self on the sets. Even when we have to shoot serious or angry scenes, I am not the sort of an actor who would want to get into that exact mindset.” I cannot just continuously sit in a serious manner because I like to have fun and make other people have fun as well.”
He added, “In fact, if the scene is too intense, I act differently to experience a contrast while filming those sequences. It works for me.”
When asked if Ayeza Khan or Hania Aamir are his favourite co-stars to date, Hamza confessed that while he has had a good time with all his leading ladies, his best female co-star so far has been Ayesha Khan.
Kajol and Ajay Devgn’s daughter Nysa Devgan may not have forayed into Bollywood yet, but she is already a digital sensation. The star kid has multiple fan pages on Instagram, and pictures of her partying with her friends often go viral on social media.
Nysa recently slayed in glamorous ethnic outfits, and while her fans shower her with love, there is also a certain section of social media users who troll her and leave nasty comments that are uncalled for. Now, Kajol has reacted to it and has shared her opinion on social media trolling.
In a conversation with ETimes, the DDLJ diva was asked how she reacts to social media trolling. She replied that she feels trolling has become a strange part of social media. She then laughed and added that if one is trolled, it just means they’re famous. “If you are trolled, you are noticed. If you’re trolled you’re famous. It’s like you’re not famous till you’re trolled,” she said. When asked if it affects her, she said that it does, but that there’s only a limit to which these things can be taken seriously. “I will be stupid and I will be idiotic to say that it does not affect me. But yes, there is a certain level that you can take it seriously.”
She further added that numerous articles are written about trolling, but when she goes and checks the comments, she finds that there are hundreds of positive comments and only one or two negative comments on which the articles are based.
Kajol then added that she explains Nysa that for every one or two trolls who post nasty comments, there are a thousand other fans who think she is fantastic. “And most important of all, what do you see in the mirror? Whose opinion matters? My opinion matters. Not your own,” she joked.

“Don’t you remember”, he asked the crowd, “that after PTI resigned from the National Assembly and the by-polls were set to take place, they moved the courts and pleaded that their resignations were just a political stunt”.
During the address, he noted that the army stepped back from politics, “but now, they [puppet politicians] are worried that if the institution has become neutral, then what will become of their politics.”
Bilawal told Khan that if he decides to resign from the assemblies, then the PPP and its “jiyalas” are ready to face his party.
At the start of the address, Bilawal paid tributes to his mother, former PM Benazir Bhutto and his maternal grandfather, former PM Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto.
