Aditya Pancholi seeks quashing of Rape FIR; Next hearing on Feb 24

Veteran Bollywood actor Aditya Pancholi returned to the spotlight on Thursday as the Bombay High Court took up his petition to quash a 2019 rape FIR lodged against him at the Versova Police Station in Mumbai. The case involves allegations made by a female Bollywood actress. Pancholi’s legal team, led by advocate Prashant Patil, urged the court to dismiss the FIR on grounds that it was filed many years after the alleged incident, describing the complaint as “malicious” and lacking in timely evidence. The plea cited legal precedent, notably the Supreme Court’s Bhajanlal judgment,  which allows quashing of criminal proceedings under specific circumstances. During Thursday’s hearing, the defence also presented a recording of a meeting prior to the FIR being filed, which they claim demonstrates “wrongful intention” behind the complaint.

Amber Heard reacts to the news that she will allegedly be replaced in the film Aquaman 2

The wave of rumors surrounding celebrities is gaining momentum. Now her colleague Amber Heard is trying to defend her honor, whose name has recently been on the headlines. The thing is that on June 14, there was news about the complete replacement of the heroine Amber in the new Aquaman 2. However, representatives of the star laughed at dispelling the prejudice of Warner Bros. against his famous followers. "The rumor mill continues to spin, just like the first day; it's inaccurate, insensitive, and slightly insane," a rep for the actress replied. The initial source of information was Just Jared, which made it clear that her role as Mera would be re-shot with a different actress. As it spread, the information acquired new details and conflicting details. Perhaps the reason for such statements was the scandalous testimony in court about how the lawsuit with ex-husband Johnny Depp negatively affected her career. Last month, during a libel trial, Heard claimed that her screen time in Aquaman 2 was significantly reduced. This comes after Depp's previous attorney, Adam Waldman, claimed that the domestic abuse allegations Amber made in a 2018 article written for The Washington Post were part of an "elaborate hoax. " "They gave me the script, and then they gave me a new version. Without giving away any spoilers...they just took a bunch of stuff out of my role," Amber testified. Of course, the subsequent loss in court and the "demonized image" through the eyes of the defense of the ex-spouse can make up for Amber's rather successful career. But we hope that her creative achievements and talents will not be forgotten due to problems in her personal life.
