Bombay HC asks Shilpa Shetty, Raj Kundra to deposit Rs 60 crores for travel, and LOC relief

-
The Bombay High Court has directed actor Shilpa Shetty and her husband, businessman Raj Kundra, to deposit Rs 60 crore or provide a continuous bank guarantee from a nationalised bank before it will consider lifting a Lookout Circular (LOC) restricting their foreign travel. This order came during a hearing on their urgent plea to visit London for Kundra's ailing father, who is undergoing serious medical treatment. The bench of Justices AS Gadkari and RR Bhonsale emphasised the need to demonstrate bona fides amid doubts about their return to India. The LOC stems from a Rs 60.48 crore fraud complaint filed by Deepak Kothari, Director of UY Industries Pvt Ltd, alleging the couple induced him to invest in their now-defunct Best Deal TV Pvt Ltd between 2015 and 2023. Kothari claims the funds, provided as a loan with Shetty's personal guarantee, were misused amid heavy business losses, with no recovery despite repeated demands. The Economic Offences Wing (EOW) of Mumbai Police is inv...

In The Clip, Brendan Fraser Discusses How He Feels About Dwayne Johnson’s Public Endorsement Of His Return To The Movie Scene

-
The portrayal that Fraser, 53, gave in The Whale represents a massive comeback for the star, who is best known for his roles in box office hits like "The Mummy" and "George of the Jungle," has garnered him a lot of award talk. After the video was shared online showing Fraser getting upset during a standing ovation at the Venice Film Festival, Johnson, who appeared in The Mummy Returns alongside Fraser in 2001, took to Twitter to express his support for the actor. Seeing this tremendous applause for Brendan brings a massive smile to my face. Man, I am so thrilled right now. Johnson, who is now 50 years old, said, "He encouraged me to participate in his Mummy Returns franchise for my first job, which launched my career in Hollywood." Congratulations to my good friend Darren Aronofsky, and best wishes for all of your success, brother. #TheWhale. Wednesday night, at the New York Party hosted by Variety, Fraser responded to Johnson's backing by telling the publication, "I considered that was incredibly lovely of him." The reception that followed The Mummy Returns was the first time that I had the opportunity to speak with him. We had never physically met one another before that, even though we had been competing against one another onscreen. However, whenever we collaborated on a project, he seemed to be nothing more than a bit of tape on a stick. Therefore, it was polite to say, "Hey, man." How are ya? Here we are at last! He was joking; I could handle him. I could easily take him; after all, he's only a roll of tape on a stick! In a recent cover story for Variety, in which he was interviewed alongside The Whale director Darren Aronofsky, Brendan Fraser stated that he is open to the possibility of reprising his role as Rick O'Connell in another Mummy sequel. He added, "I have no idea how that would even function." But I wouldn't rule it out if someone could convince me that it was a good idea.

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...
