Rita Bhattacharya BREAKS SILENCE after Kumar Sanu’s Rs 50 crores defamation suit, calls for peace

-
Singer Kumar Sanu and his former wife Rita Bhattacharya are once again in the spotlight as a legal dispute unfolds years after their divorce. The veteran playback singer filed a defamation suit in the Bombay High Court against Bhattacharya, alleging that recent interviews she gave contained defamatory remarks that harmed his reputation and violated the terms of their divorce agreement. In his petition, Sanu’s legal team, led by advocate Sana Raees Khan, has sought damages reported to be Rs 50 crores and has demanded that the interviews in question be taken down from various entertainment platforms. The suit claims that Bhattacharya’s statements breach a clause from their 2001 divorce settlement that prohibited either party from making allegations against the other in public. Reacting publicly for the first time since the notice was issued, Bhattacharya described her shock at the legal action, particularly the financial demand involved. In an interview with ETimes, she said, “The pape...

Johnny Depp missed his chance to dismiss Amber Heard’s counterclaim

-
Johnny Depp missed his chance to dismiss Amber Heard's counterclaim. Litigation between the spouses is gaining new momentum. On Tuesday, a Virginia judge denied Johnny Depp's motion to dismiss Amber Heard's counterclaim, ruling that the jury should decide the matter. In a counterclaim, Hollywood pet lawyer Adam Waldman tarnished the actress' honor and caused irreparable damage to her career when he accused Amber and her friends of hoaxing violence by accusing the actress of having a personality disorder. On Tuesday morning, representatives of the ex-wife in court came up with their arguments, which prompted Johnny's team to file a motion to dismiss the lawsuit. However, Depp's lawyer, Ben Chu, argued that Waldman had expressed his opinion. Therefore, he could not defame after the actor's representative claimed that there was no evidence that DEPP allegedly saw or knew about Waldman's statements before filing a counterclaim. "He believed, and will continue to believe until his death, that Ms. Heard's allegations of abuse were false," Chu said. But Ben Rottenborn of the team heard claims that Waldman acted as their adversary's lawyer and that Depp is therefore responsible for his behavior. He also stated that there was ample evidence that Johnny abused Heard, and consequently, the decision to award damages in the counterclaim should be left to the jury. Judge Penny Azkarate nevertheless rejected Depp's application, saying that it was not her job to assess the credibility or weight of the evidence. And Amber's representatives did the same after the actor's team dropped the case on May 3. The Hollywood talent filed a lawsuit against the ex-wife for her previous allegations of domestic violence in a Washington Post article in December 2018. However, the judge made it clear that the jury would have to decide on both Depp's lawsuit and Heard's counterclaim.

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...
