Shukla Kumar, wife of Rajendra Kumar and mother of Kumar Gaurav, passes away; prayer meet to be held on January 10

-
Shukla Kumar, wife of legendary actor Rajendra Kumar and mother of actor Kumar Gaurav, passed away recently. The news has left the Hindi film fraternity and admirers of the Kumar family in mourning. A prayer meet in her remembrance will be held on January 10, as confirmed by close sources. While Shukla Kumar largely stayed away from the public eye, she was a central pillar in one of Bollywood’s most respected film families. Married to Rajendra Kumar, fondly remembered as “Jubilee Kumar” for his unmatched box-office streak, she witnessed the rise and transitions of Hindi cinema from close quarters. Her quiet presence remained constant through the highs of stardom and the inevitable shifts that followed. Her son, Kumar Gaurav, entered the film industry with one of the most sensational debuts Bollywood had seen. His 1981 film Love Story, opposite Vijeta Pandit, turned him into an overnight star and remains one of the most successful debut films in Hindi cinema. The actor was briefly hai...

Joe Alwyn Addresses Taylor Swift’s engagement rumors in a rare interview

-
Are the rumors true? In a new interview, Joe Alwyn opened up about his super-personal romance with Taylor Swift and clarified if they're engaged. Rumor has it that Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn are engaged after six years of dating. However, none of them confirmed the truth about it — not even when Joe, 31, was asked about their relationship by The Wall Street Journal while promoting his new Hulu series, Conversations with Friends. "If I got a pound every time they tell me I'm engaged, then I would have a lot of pound coins," the British actor said in an interview on April 20. "I mean, the truth is that if the answer were yes, I wouldn't say it, and if it were no, I wouldn't say it," he added. Taylor, 32, has been known to keep her relationship with Jo a secret ever since they started dating in 2016. However, in an interview with WSJ, Joe explained why he wants to keep his personal life in the spotlight. "We live in a culture where people expect so much from them. So if you don't write all the time about what you do, how you spend your day, or how you made breakfast, does that make you a hermit?" he said. Although Taylor has only occasionally spoken about her romance with Jo — her longest relationship to date — she has sung about it numerous times. It is believed that her songs "End Game," "Gorgeous," and "Delicate" from her album repertoire are dedicated to her British beau. Taylor's next album, Lover, was also heavily inspired by Joe, especially the title track. But how does Joe feel about being mentioned in the music of the legendary singer? "No, I'm not against it," the Erased Identity actor told The Sunday Times in December 2019. "Not at all, no. It's flattering." Joe actually helped Taylor create her eighth album, Folklore, which won a Grammy for Album of the Year in 2021. Taylor thanked her boyfriend as she accepted the award and shared that he is always the first to hear her songs.

The Miracle Club review – Maggie Smith can’t save this rocky road trip to Lourdes

-
Laura Linney is upstaged by older co-stars Smith and Kathy Bates in this sentimental tale about a group of Dublin women who go on a spiritual journey together Who’s up for a golden-hued heartwarmer set in 60s Ireland starring Kathy Bates and Maggie Smith about women with secret fears and dreams going on a church trip to Lourdes and finally finding the real miracle is their new compassion for each other? The answer to this question could well have been … me. I have a liking for a gentle tale and there is nothing necessarily wrong with, just occasionally, showing Ireland and the church of this period with something other than outrage and horror. But The Miracle Club does not at any time, to use a discredited metaphor, throw away its crutches and walk. And it’s painful to note that this is largely because of the way film can’t convincingly use that estimable actor Laura Linney in a central role. She is upstaged by the older, fruitier performances and doesn’t hold her own with a more seri...
