Diane Keaton’s nail clippers for $960: what’s behind the new boom in celebrity estate auctions?

-
With beloved stars’ personal items increasingly up for grabs after they die, a new generation of fans are bidding on everything from bowler hats to dog bowls From Diane Keaton’s bowler hats and polka dot scarfs, to Gene Hackman’s used paint brushes, to Terence Stamp’s love letters from Jean Shrimpton and even Matthew Perry’s black leather wallet (his credit cards and AAA membership card still inside), fans are being offered – at a price – increasingly personal items from the estates of dead celebrities. The growing trend for auctions of deceased famous people’s personal items – which has boomed ever since the hugely popular Marilyn Monroe estate sale in 1999 – has even attracted its own portmanteau: “deleb” as in dead celebrity.

SCOOP: After Saiyaara, Mohit Suri and Ahaan Panday's next is a twisted love story for Aditya Chopra

-

In 2025, Saiyaara redefined the box office, as the film marked the launch of two superstars - Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda. The film went on to become the biggest launch pad of the modern era, and ever since, there has been curiosity to learn more about Ahaan Panday. The young superstar signed his second feature film with YRF and Ali Abbas Zafar, and the film is presently on the floor.

And now we have learnt that Ahaan's next after the Ali Abbas Zafar directorial will be a twisted love story with Saiyaara director Mohit Suri. "Mohit Suri was initially looking to make an older guy and younger girl love story. But when the logistics didn't work out, he decided to redesign the project for his leading hero Ahaan Panday. The script organically flew to perfection, and gave Mohit the wings to come up with a rather twisted love story," a trade source shared with Bollywood Hungama on anonymity.

The source promises that this isn't a project designed to capitalise on the popularity of Saiyaara. "If YRF wanted to cash in on Saiyaara, they would have made Saiyaara 2. This is a rather twisted love story of jilted lovers, and in a space very different from Saiyaara. Ahaan is excited to reunite with his mentor - Mohit Suri, under the production of Aditya Chopra."

While a portal reported about the collaboration, this article serves as an additional update on the plot and world of the film. Ahaan's character will be intense and gritty, away from the soft and lovable part. "After a loverboy, Ahaan is playing a gangster, and a gritty lover in his second and third film. He is curating his career with versatility. Ranbir Kapoor and Shah Rukh Khan are his idols, and he is following their career trajectory by going slightly dark."

The Mohit Suri and Ahaan Panday reunion film will go on floors in August 2026, once Ahaan is done shooting for Ali Abbas Zafar's gangster romance.

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...
