Never Heard About It Growing Up Sana Saeed, Little Anjali of Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Makes A Startling Admission

Actress Sana Saeed, who became famous as little Anjali in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, has shared a deeply personal story about her childhood and the health challenges she quietly faced for many years. In a recent social media post and video, Sana revealed that she struggled with bulimia, a serious eating disorder, from a young age. She admitted that while growing up, she had never heard of the condition and did not understand why she felt anxious about food. Because she had no knowledge of eating disorders, she believed there was "something wrong" with her instead of recognizing that she needed help. Sana said that the lack of awareness made it difficult for her to identify her condition, and she spent years dealing with the problem in silence before finally understanding what she was going through. Recalling those difficult years, Sana explained that she often worried about eating in front of others and feared people would judge her. She said that reading The Bulimia Help Method became a turning point in her recovery because it helped her understand that her struggles had a name and that she was not alone. Even after discovering the condition, she found it extremely difficult to accept that she had bulimia because of the shame and stigma attached to eating disorders. Sana's statement, "I never heard about it growing up. I wish I'd heard about it, so I would have gone straight to the problem," highlights the importance of mental health education and awareness from an early age. She hopes that by sharing her experience, others facing similar challenges will recognize the signs sooner and seek professional support without fear or embarrassment. The actress also shared an encouraging update about her life, saying that she has now fully recovered and feels happier and healthier than ever before. She emphasized that recovery is possible with the right guidance and support. Sana encouraged anyone struggling with an eating disorder or any mental health issue to speak to someone they trust and seek qualified professional help. Her honest confession has received appreciation from fans and mental health advocates, who praised her courage for speaking openly about a topic that is often misunderstood. Many people believe that her story will help spread awareness about eating disorders and encourage more open conversations about mental health, body image, and emotional well-being.  

Why you should get to the theatre half an hour early to see Christopher Nolans The Odyssey

Moviegoers planning to watch Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey are being advised to reach the theatre at least 30 minutes before the scheduled showtime. The recommendation comes as the film is expected to draw huge crowds, especially at IMAX and premium-format cinemas, where ticket demand has been exceptionally high. One of the biggest reasons to arrive early is the exclusive six-minute IMAX prologue, which is considered an important part of the overall cinematic experience. The prologue begins before the main feature and introduces key moments from the story, setting the tone for Nolan's epic adaptation of Homer's Odyssey. Missing it could mean losing an important part of the film's narrative. Theatres are also expecting long queues for ticket verification, security checks, concessions, and seat finding because advance bookings have been extremely strong. Some cinemas have even advised audiences to arrive 30–45 minutes early to avoid delays and ensure screenings start on time. Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey is one of the most anticipated films of 2026. Starring Matt Damon as Odysseus alongside Anne Hathaway, Tom Holland, Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, and Charlize Theron, it is the first feature film shot entirely with IMAX 70mm cameras. The nearly three-hour epic is expected to be a major theatrical event, with industry analysts predicting a blockbuster opening weekend.

played at a nearby gurdwara after being pulled out of ZEE5. In Punjabi villages, Diljits Satluj is given a second chance at life.

Diljit Dosanjh's film Satluj has received a new life in Punjab, even after being removed from the OTT platform ZEE5 in India. The film was taken down just two days after its release, leading to disappointment among fans who were eager to watch it online. However, instead of allowing the film to disappear, people in Punjab have started organizing public screenings in villages, gurdwaras, school grounds, and community halls. These screenings are being arranged by local sports clubs, youth groups, and Sikh organizations, which are using projectors, LED screens, and sound systems so that everyone can watch the film together.Many people believe that Satluj tells an important chapter of Punjab's history and should be available for the public to watch. Because of this, the community has come together to ensure that the film reaches as many people as possible. In several villages, volunteers have donated money, equipment, and their time to organize these events. Families, young people, and elderly residents have gathered in large numbers to watch the movie, turning the screenings into community events. Some participants have even described these efforts as a form of "seva" (selfless service) because they feel they are helping preserve an important story.The Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC) has also announced that it will hold public screenings of the film in gurdwaras and organize educational seminars about the life of Jaswant Singh Khalra, whose story inspired the movie. The committee believes that people should have the opportunity to learn about this part of history despite the film's removal from the streaming platform. Similar screenings are now being planned in several states, including Punjab, Delhi, Haryana, Rajasthan, and Jammu, showing the strong public support for the film.The controversy over Satluj has also sparked legal and public debate. A Public Interest Litigation (PIL) has been filed in the Punjab and Haryana High Court, asking for the film to be restored on ZEE5. The petition argues that removing the film without a clear public explanation raises concerns about freedom of expression and transparency. Meanwhile, Diljit Dosanjh has said that he was not surprised by the film's removal, as it had already faced several delays and challenges before its release. Despite these obstacles, the overwhelming support from local communities has given Satluj a second life, proving that audiences are determined to keep its story alive.  

Shreya Kalras revelation that Akanksha Chamola is bisexual is criticized by Sreshta Iyer as not her story.

The controversy around Lock Upp: Sach Ya Sazaa has intensified after Sreshta Iyer criticized fellow contestant Shreya Kalra for revealing Akanksha Chamola's bisexuality on national television without her consent. In a recent interview following her eviction from the reality show, Sreshta said that Akanksha's sexual orientation was never Shreya's story to tell and that such deeply personal information should only be shared by the individual concerned.Sreshta explained that the conversation about Akanksha's sexuality originally took place privately between Akanksha and the show's makers. Although she and Shreya happened to overhear parts of the discussion backstage, Sreshta stressed that overhearing a conversation did not give anyone the right to make it public. She remarked that if Akanksha had wanted everyone to know, she would have shared it herself. The incident became one of the biggest talking points on the show after Shreya allegedly disclosed Akanksha's bisexuality during a conversation with another contestant. Many viewers criticized the move, calling it an invasion of privacy and accusing Shreya of using sensitive personal information as part of the game's strategy.Following the controversy, Akanksha herself spoke openly about her past. She confirmed that she had identified as bisexual before her marriage and had relationships with women. However, she became emotional while explaining that she wanted the decision to reveal such a personal aspect of her life to be hers alone, not someone else's.Support for Akanksha has come from several members of the entertainment industry. Former contestant Nehal Chudasama publicly condemned Shreya's actions, describing it as "deeply unfair" to expose someone's identity without permission. Actress Shiny Doshi also expressed solidarity with Akanksha, praising her courage for speaking her truth after the incident.

Alpha, starring Alia Bhatt and Sharvari, continued its theatrical run on its first Monday despite the usual weekday slowdown. The female-led spy thriller earned an estimated ₹3.85 crore net in India on Day 4, taking its total India net collection to ₹37.85 crore. Worldwide, the film has now grossed ₹63.64 crore, crossing the ₹60 crore milestone within just four days.The film had a strong opening weekend, driven by positive advance bookings, curiosity around the first female-led film in the YRF Spy Universe, and action-packed promotions. However, like many big-budget releases, collections witnessed a sharp drop of around 70% on Monday, which is considered a key test for a film's long-term box office performance.Trade analysts believe that positive word of mouth is helping Alpha maintain steady occupancy in multiplexes, particularly in metro cities. Overseas markets have also contributed significantly to the worldwide total, supporting the film's overall box office performance. The coming weekdays will be crucial in determining whether Alpha can sustain its momentum before the next wave of releases. If collections remain stable through Tuesday and Wednesday, the film could comfortably cross the ₹100 crore worldwide mark during its second weekend.The film has received praise for the performances of Alia Bhatt and Sharvari, its stylish action sequences, and its connection to the larger YRF Spy Universe.

Exclusive Satluj Honey Trehan Explains How a High-Stakes, Covert Release Was Achieved Just Hours Before the Film Was Removed From ZEE5

Just hours before the film 'Satluj' was unexpectedly removed from ZEE5, director Honey Trehan spoke about the extraordinary journey that finally brought the movie to audiences. In an exclusive interview, he revealed that the film's digital release was planned in complete secrecy after a four-year struggle over censorship. According to Trehan, only a handful of people—including lead actor Diljit Dosanjh and a small core team—knew that the film would premiere on the streaming platform.Trehan said the film, originally titled Punjab 95, faced repeated delays after the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) reportedly sought more than 127 cuts before granting a theatrical release. After years of waiting and receiving no clear resolution, producers decided to bypass cinemas and release the film directly on ZEE5, where a CBFC certificate is not required in the same way as for theatrical distribution. The release itself was carried out like a confidential operation. Trehan admitted that even on the evening of the premiere he was unsure whether the film would actually go live, as previous release attempts had repeatedly collapsed. When the film finally appeared on ZEE5, it generated widespread excitement and positive reactions from viewers, who praised its powerful storytelling and Diljit Dosanjh's performance. However, the celebration was short-lived. Only hours after the interview, ZEE5 removed Satluj from its Indian catalogue and announced that the title had been taken down "until further notice." The platform did not provide a detailed explanation, leading to widespread speculation and renewed debate over censorship, artistic freedom, and the challenges of releasing politically sensitive films in India. Trehan also explained why the film's title was changed from Punjab 95 to Satluj. He said the decision was made by the filmmakers themselves rather than being imposed by the streaming platform. The name Satluj, referring to the river flowing through Punjab, was already registered by the production house and was chosen because it better reflected the film's emotional and cultural connection with the region. After the takedown, Diljit Dosanjh reacted publicly, saying he was not worried because the film had already reached audiences. He reiterated his support for releasing the movie in its original, uncut form and stressed that stories like this should continue to be told despite the obstacles they face. The controversy has once again highlighted the ongoing discussion around creative expression, censorship, and digital distribution in Indian cinema.

Pritam and Pedro review: Arshad Warsi show remains mediocre despite a Munna Bhai reunion

Review of Pedro and Pritam: Pedro is an aggressive police officer whose worst fear is being sent to the cybercrime cell. When he's not caring for his aging dadaji, Pritam is an expert at cracking codes. This boomer uncle-Gen Z team sets out to solve murders in sunny Goa when the latter becomes the former's go-to support when his greatest nightmares come true.In the six-episode series, which is Rajkumar Hirani's maiden OTT venture, veteran Arshad Warsi teams up with rookie Vir Hirani, who has experience in his father's projects. The two posed together in Munnabhai MBBS. In this buddy adventure, they comprise two improbable halves: one is at sea when they come upon a keyboard (why QWERTY not ABCDE), while the other is hawking vacuum cleaners when they're not investigating. Why use vacuum cleaners? No one informs us. Anything goes in Goa, so it's best to avoid asking.You have to apply this same sentiment across the program, which tries to be both funny and darker than it turns out to be. Pedro and Pritam are faced with a much more difficult case: the young son of a blustering minister (Satyadeep Mishra) has been abducted, but complications arise even as a ransom is raised and things get murkier. This comes after they solved the dead easy who-stole-the-ATM-machine case, which involved a group of layabouts as the incompetent criminals. Who is responsible for it? Are there two kidnappers or just one? Is Shruti Marathe, the minister's wife, protesting excessively?The Raju Hirani universe, where the villains have depressing backstories and extenuating situations, is a perfect fit if you consider Pritam and Pedro to be functioning within the comfortable crime thriller genre. The director who has given us good-at-heart mobsters, stone-hearted physicians and greedy bankers, doesn’t believe in pure monsters, and that is the USP of his films.

Positive word-of-mouth after the initial screenings could further boost collections over the opening weekend.
