Rajesh Khanna accused Salman Khan of betraying him by offering to labour for free in order to purchase his mansion, saying, "Mujhe sadak par lana chata hai."

As India's "first superstar," Rajesh Khanna led an extravagant existence. Between 1969 and 1972, he set an unprecedented record of 15 consecutive solo hit films. During the height of his fame, he amassed substantial riches and properties. He even bought a mansion with a view of the sea on Carter Road, one of Mumbai's most desirable streets, and christened it Aashirwad. The cottage quickly rose to prominence and came to represent his unmatched fame.Aashirwad was purportedly purchased by Rajesh Khanna from fellow actor Rajendra Kumar in the early 1970s for about Rs 3.5 lakh. Author Gautam Chintamani writes in Dark Star: The Loneliness of Being Rajesh Khanna that after Khanna relocated to Aashirwad, "the facade of being a king was complete."  

The Bollywood movie Battle of Galwan has caused controversy due to its factual distortion experts claim that a country's holy area cannot be impacted by over-the-top drama.

On December 27, main actor Salman Khan released the trailer for the Indian film Battle of Galwan, which is set to be released in April 2026 and purports to be based on the 2020 fighting between Indian and Chinese troops in the Galwan region. The clip sparked outrage on the internet on Monday. Chinese internet users frequently make fun of Salman Khan, who is best known to Chinese audiences as the lead actor in Bajrangi Bhaijaan, for portraying parts that seem too unbeatable, with stories that are too straightforward and excessive visual effects that make the drama seem surreal.Salman Khan plays Colonel Bikkumalla Santosh Babu in the movie, a role that Indian media said attracted Bollywood's attention due to his alleged crucial part in the 2020 Galwan Valley conflict. Bollywood films, at most, offer an emotionally charged and entertaining picture, but no amount of cinematic exaggeration can change history or undermine the PLA's resolve to protect China's sovereign land, according to a Chinese scholar on Monday.The Hindustan Times reported on Sunday that the trailer opens with Salman's voice giving a speech while instructing his soldiers on how to combat the "enemy." He is then shown in the video approaching the "enemy," with his soldiers standing next to him. He is then shown clinging to a stick while the "enemy" rushes in their direction. Salman's character strikes someone with the stick as the video comes to a close. On the other hand, some online users questioned whether the movie had imitated a sequence from Game of Thrones.The movie has also sparked additional controversy on the internet, with users pointing to things like extras' outfits and looks, actors' hairstyles that don't fit their military roles or the storyline's suggestion of extreme cold, and—most importantly—a depiction of events that isn't true. About 200 Indian soldiers valiantly defended their land against a force of 1,200 Chinese soldiers on June 15, 2020, according to certain local media, notably India Today, which has promoted the movie as being based on the events that occurred between Indian and Chinese troops in the Galwan region.

Despite Ranveer Singh's apologies, a second complaint was made against him for imitating daivas and offending the Tulu community's sacred feelings by discussing Rishab Shetty's Kantara.

Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh was accused of violating the Tulu customary spirit-worship depicted in Rishab Shetty's Kantara flicks, according to a complaint filed by Bengaluru-based High Court counsel Prashanth Methal. This is the second complaint made against the actor, who in this case expressed regret. Also Read: Rishab Shetty had discouraged Ranveer Singh against copying Daivas before he did it on the stage at IFFI.The Hindu also stated that counsel Prashanth Methal submitted a formal complaint at the High Grounds Police Station alleging that the actor had mocked the revered daiva custom during the International Film Festival of India (IFFI) closing ceremony in Goa on November 28.The complaint furthered claimed that Ranveer had done a parody of the Panjuluri/Guliga daiva who is worshipped in the coastal Karnataka region. The counsel was also cited noting that the performance was nasty, insulting, and hilarious and a huge source of injury to the Hindu feelings particularly among the Tulu population. The complaint additionally alleged that the Ranveer dubbed the daiva a female spirit, which the advocate regarded to as blasphemous and had been purposefully disrespectful. He instructed the police to start prosecuting Ranveer.Ranveer has responded by apologising to the netizens on social media, after a series of criticisms on the internet after the viral video of him copying the daivas. “My intention was to highlight Rishab's incredible performance in the film. Actor to actor, I know how much it would take to perform that particular sequence in the way that he did, for which he has my utmost admiration,” he wrote.In addition, Ranveer apologised for hurting people's feelings and said, "I have always deeply respected every culture, tradition, and belief in our country." If I've harmed anyone's sensibilities, I genuinely apologise.” The behaviour that disrespected the Tulu community happened when Ranveer went to meet with Rishab at the closing ceremony of IFFi, and replicated the daivas although the Kannada actor urged him not to.

Company Behind 'Bigg Boss Kannada' Takes Legal Action Against Premises Sealing and Contestant Eviction by Pollution Control Board

VELS Studio And Entertainment Private Limited, the host of the reality show 'Big Boss Kannada' at its Bidadi location, has approached the Karnataka High Court to contest an October 6 order from the State Pollution Control Board that mandated the immediate closure of the studio premises. The petition claims that the Karnataka State Pollution Control Board's action is arbitrary, illegal, and lacks jurisdiction, authority, and compliance with due process.It indicates that the closure order dated 06.10.2025 was carried out on the following day, 07.10.2025 (Tuesday), concerning the petitioner's property located in Bidadi, Ramanagara District, which contains the legitimate operations of VELS Studios and Entertainment Pvt. Ltd. The petition claims that the order was issued with complete disregard for natural justice principles, denying the petitioner a chance to be heard.According to the plea, the respondents have tried to suddenly stop ongoing television production activities, including filming the well-known reality show "BIG BOSS", while acting beyond their authority and with a clear intention to harm. Moreover, it is claimed that the timing and rush involved in passing and executing the order—occurring as they did at the same time as the launch and public broadcast of that show—demonstrate a conscious and intentional effort to disrupt the Petitioner's legitimate business activities and impede its commercial operations. Additionally, the plea argues that the order lacks details regarding the supposed pollutant, including its characteristics, concentration, and the method by which this pollution is alleged to have happened. Without these specifics, the order turns indistinct, capricious, and lacks justification. Moreover, the Respondent authority has not documented even minimal findings as mandated by law for a quasi-judicial order, thus breaching fundamental principles of natural justice.an industrial establishment or factory. According to Section 2(d) of the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981, an "environmental pollutant" is defined as any substance that exists at a concentration detrimental to human life. Data from laboratory or clinical tests must necessarily support such a finding. In the current case, no such data or test report has been used as a basis. The Respondent's actions have been based solely on assumptions, which has made the impugned order arbitrary and unsustainable.The plea requests that the closure order be set aside. Meanwhile, it is seeking a stay on the operation of the order from October 6 and a direction to the respondents not to disrupt the daily business carried out at those premises.
