In a sexual assault case, a Kerala court grants Manjummel Boys director Chidambaram anticipatory bail.

Chidambaram S. Poduval, the renowned film director and screenwriter of Manjummel Boys, was granted anticipatory relief on Saturday, March 7, by the District and Sessions Court, Ernakulam. Sri. K.K. Balakrishnan, the District Judge, issued the judgment giving Chidambaram bail on conditions. The prosecution claims that during the first week of May 2022, Chidambaram entered the de facto complainant's bedroom with the intention of offending her modesty and pressing on her breast.Based on the de facto complainant's First Information Statement, the Ernakulam South Police Station registered a crime on February 28, 2026, for offenses covered by Sections 354 [Assault or criminal force to woman with intent to outrage her modesty], 354A(1)(i) [Sexual harassment], and 509 [Word, gesture, or act intended to insult the modesty of a woman] IPC.Chidambaram, a renowned director in the Malayalam film industry, claims that he met the de facto complainant for his role in Manjummel Boys during the film's production and filming. He has argued that he acted professionally toward the de facto complaint and that she was the one who initiated a "campaign" to damage his reputation. Additionally, he claims that the complainant accused him of sexual assault and uploaded a clip on her Instagram account. Additionally, he claimed that in December 2025, an interim order prohibiting her from posting defamatory news on any media platform was issued after he filed a damage suit against her at the Bombay High Court. He claims that she fabricated the current case in order to avoid the legal repercussions of releasing derogatory material about him. Chidamabaram emphasized that he had no criminal history and that the case was not reported for four years. There is no need for custodial interrogation and no materials are gathered because the de facto complaint is overseas.

Kerala HC wants to see The Kerala Story 2 after discovering that the teaser and trailer misrepresent the state.

Kerala HC wants to see The Kerala Story 2 after discovering that the teaser and trailer misrepresent the state.

The Kerala High Court on Tuesday (February 24, 2026) requested that the movie be shown to it on Wednesday, claiming that the teaser and trailer for The Kerala Story 2: Goes Beyond "wrongly portrays" the people of Kerala. Since Kerala is mentioned in the title by the filmmakers, who claim that the film tells a pan-Indian story, the concerns of the people of the State cannot be disregarded. Tensions within the community could result from this," it stated."You don't think the Court ought to see the film. "You want the question of whether this petition is a private or public litigation to be resolved," the court said. The Court made the observation during the hearing of three petitions from people who wanted to prevent the film's release and have the Central Board of Film Certification's (CBFC) certificate revoked because they believed the movie stigmatized and misrepresented Kerala, which could cause tensions and discord among communities. The Court noted that the petitioners' concerns seemed prima facie justified because the movie was being projected as "inspired by true events" and prominently carried the name of the state in its title, even though the sequels' plot had no real connection to Kerala. The Court then expressed its inclination to watch the film during the morning hearing. Therefore, it requested that the producer and the CBFC's legal representatives obtain guidance regarding the best time to screen the film for the Court. Additionally, the movie producers' attorney stated that the screening may go.

At the 2024 PCAs, Sydney Sweeney didn need much to draw attention.

On the red carpet, making a style statement might not be as simple as it seems. Celebrities frequently go to extreme lengths to create an impression, dressing in dynamic gowns and creating mind-bending optical illusions. Few people can pull off an effortlessly stylish look while drawing attention from everyone in the room. Included in them was Count Sydney Sweeney. With her movie co-star Glen Powell by her side, the Anyone But You actress attended the People's Choice Awards 2024 on Sunday night. Although their on-screen chemistry generated a lot of excitement when the film first came out, her red carpet look was what stole the show at this event. Sydney Sweeney attended the awards ceremony wearing a rich crimson custom-made Monot gown. The bustier was wired, and the narrow straps dropped to reveal a plunging neckline. The all-black garment hugged her curves in a form-fitting silhouette until it revealed a slit at the back of the length at the ankle. Her gown was accessorized with satin strap heels, finger rings, and earrings; after all, a look like that really didn't need anything more.Sydney wore her blond hair, which was ombre in tone, parted down the middle and falling in big waves down her back. Her stunning red gown looked stunning with her smokey eyes, which she accessorized with a nude lip and bronzed cheeks.Sydney Sweeney is obviously partial to a little red dress, and we're not at all upset about that.

Maamla Legal Hai trailer Ravi Kishan leads a team of jugaadu lawyers in Netflix’s workplace sitcom

"Trailer for Maamla Legal Hai: In the district court setting of Biswapati Sarkar and Sameer Saxena's workplace sitcom, Ravi Kishan is the leader of a group of lawyers. Netflix and Biswapati Sarkar are extending their collaboration with the new legal comedy series Maamla Legal Hai, which stars Ravi Kishan. The Patparganj District Court serves as the setting for this workplace comedy series, which centers on a group of ""jugaadu"" lawyers who frequently handle strange cases. One such case involves a parrot that is placed on trial because it spoke profanity. VD Tyagi, portrayed by the legendary Bhojpuri actor Ravi Kishan, is a cunning attorney who questions the ""lambé haath (long arms) of justice."" Ananya Shroff (Naila Grrewal), a ""passionate advocate for justice"" and Harvard LLM alum, is accompanying him. Although Sujata, played by Nidhi Bisht, is ""the OG Didi who hasn't represented a single case so far,"" she nevertheless yearns for her ""own air-conditioned chamber."" Then there's Vishwas Pandey, the court manager portrayed by Anant V Joshi of 12th Fail, who likes to think of himself as the Patparganj District Court's Donna Paulson—a reference to the astute secretary from the hit television series Suits. Ravi Kishan began his Hindi film career nearly simultaneously with Shah Rukh Khan and Akshay Kumar. The actor recently reminisced about Shah Rukh and Akshay's unwavering commitment to their careers. He added that neither of the stars wants to fade into obscurity. Ravi recounted an incident from the 1996 movie Army sets, in which Shah Rukh arrived with a high fever, while speaking with Siddharth Kanan.

If you are game for Kajol’s favourite food, the unusual malai rice try these unique combinations too

"Inspired by the combination, chef Shipra Khanna talked about how she always encourages people to try new foods and flavor combinations, which may really expand our palates and improve our dining experiences. Regarding food, we all have our guilty pleasures. Everybody has their favorite foods, whether it's chocolates, dal rice, or maa ke haath ka khaana. In an Instagram Live session, star Kajol said that she has several favorites when asked about her favorite dish. ""My favorite comfort food combination is malai with rice and salt."" Indeed, a peculiar pairing. When I'm not feeling well, I always turn to it,"" Kajol remarked. We choose to provide you more information about the nutritional advantages of this combination, as well as some exclusive insights from specialists, after being inspired by the actor from Tribhanga's open admission. Dr. Rohini Patil, MBBS, founder of Nutracy Lifestyle, and nutritionist, described ""dudh bhat"" in Bengali, a traditional meal of Bengal. It consists of rice, malai, salt, and a small amount of milk. Clinical nutritionist Lakshita Jain, the founder of NUTR in Delhi, said that Indians enjoy experimenting with diverse food pairings. She used the example of dahi (yogurt) with rice and pickles, which is similar to Kajol's enjoyment of malai (cream), rice, and salt. ""Kajol's choice of malai, rice, and salt is definitely out of the ordinary. Rice has a lot of carbohydrates, malai has a lot of fat, and salt adds flavor,"" Jain remarked. In agreement, Dr. Patil mentioned that salt—especially rock salt—provides a variety of micronutrients, such as minerals, which are essential for preserving electrolyte balance and supporting healthy neuron and muscle function. Rice, malai, and salt, in Dr. Patil's opinion, provide a balance of macro- and micronutrients that make for a more complete, fulfilling, and pleasurable meal. Clinical dietician Garima Goyal provided a malai rice dish. Ingredients: 1/2 cup malai (cream) and 1 cup rice; add salt to taste. Technique* Cook the rice using your favorite technique until it's fluffy and cooked through.Blend the malai in a another bowl until it's creamy and smooth.When the rice is cooked, carefully mix in the malai, making sure to distribute it evenly. *To taste, add salt and thoroughly combine.Warm up and serve.

TikTok beats YouTube in launching native Apple Vision Pro app

TikTok beats YouTube in launching native Apple Vision Pro app

TikTok has joined the expanding library of apps on the visionOS App Store, releasing a new native experience for Apple’s Vision Pro headset. The announcement came Thursday via a post on the popular X social media platform. The platform now offers Vision Pro users an immersive way to view short-form videos on the new device, providing a spatial computing experience optimised for the headset’s capabilities. The addition of TikTok is a major coup for Apple, given the app’s immense popularity among Gen Z users. The app’s spatial computing experience could highlight the Vision Pro’s capabilities for consuming short-form video. Initially, there were concerns about limited native app experiences for the Vision Pro upon launch. Early January reports suggested only around 150 available apps. However, this number quickly grew to 600 by early February. Currently, app engagement remains relatively low. Many developers report download figures in the mere hundreds. However, as more well-known apps become available, engagement will likely improve. Native app support has been a struggle, with major players like YouTube, Spotify and Netflix initially declining Vision Pro app development. In fact, lack of proper app support was one of the most commonly cited reasons for returning the headset – aside from the weight and discomfort, of course. However, earlier this month, YouTube did confirm plans to launch a Vision Pro app. This indicates TikTok may soon face competition from YouTube’s Shorts feature.

So at the moment, we do not have any concrete plans." The earnings call was held on February 14. As per the merger conditions, which was agreed upon between Sony and ZEEL, the Japanese giant was also supposed to invest USD 1.5 billion in the merged entity.

One Day reviewThe perfect Netflix series, a tear-jerker of Titanic proportions 5 stars

One Day reviewThe perfect Netflix series, a tear-jerker of Titanic proportions 5 stars

mOne Day Review: Ambika Mod and Leo Woodall star in Netflix's achingly epic romantic drama, which is about as perfect as Valentine's Day and programming #039 can get. It's rare to find a TV show — or any filmed entertainment — that can capture the euphoria and heartbreak of young love with equal grace. Netflix's new romance series One Day does that and more. Containing 14 episodes of varying length, it follows two characters - bubbly Emma and impetuous Dex - through two decades of joys and sorrows, small victories and terrible losses. It is dizzying and curious, but also poetic and profound. One Day can be the perfect TV show in its own way. Emma and Dex meet for the first time at the college prom, young adults on the cusp of new adventures. He is a campus sweetheart, and his leg exposes the hinterland of old money. But he is more cynical and comes from the working-class city of Leeds. Getting Dex's attention might be the biggest validation any girl gets in college, and when he tells Emma off on their last day together, she can't help but be suspicious. He's not the kind she usually goes for. But in the spirit of YOLO that predated the production of the expression, she loves him.. What happens is a debut episode so Before Sunrise-coded that Richard Linklater would consider filing a lawsuit or flush with thanks. However, Emma and Dex always maintain a platonic relationship, preferring talk to copulation even when they split ways, in contrast to Celine and Jesse. However, their emotional bond is strong enough for them to swear to keep in contact. From 1988 until 2007, One Day visits them once a year, every year. The date, July 15, seems completely arbitrary at first. However, anyone who have read the original novel by David Nicholls or even seen the widely forgotten film adaptation will recognise its devastating ending. When she tells him on their first date that she wants to "change the world" and when she quotes her favourite passage from Tess of the d'Urbervilles by Thomas Hardy, about a day that waits "sly and unseen," ready to pounce on unwary people, there's idealism in her eyes. The episodic format of the show emphasises Emma and Dex's development despite a number of significant life events occurring off-screen. A few years following college, Dex stumbles into a position as a television presenter and turns into an annoying minor star, while Emma gives up on her ambition to become a writer and takes a work at the "second-worst Mexican restaurant in all of the UK." It changes how they see themselves and each other.

The study makes projections about media and advertising sector ad spending that will enable companies to completely transform their approach to marketing. The Pitch Madison Advertising Report predicts that linear TV will rise this year as big, established marketers still have faith in TV's ability to establish brands. "In 2024, we anticipate that TV will add an additional Rs 2,700 crore and grow by 8%, reaching a total of Rs 35,575 crore." TV will, however, lose 1% of the market share with this growth and end up at 32%, according to the research. The report further revealed that TV AdEx is under pressure as there is a growing perception that the very large lower middle class is under severe financial pressure and is being forced to buy and spend less. The report added that the reluctance of start-ups to finance expensive large-format shows, which are very profitable for broadcasters, is putting enormous pressure on TV ADEX. On the other hand, consumption of FMCG televisions is expected to increase year-on-year to drive volume growth. Positive factors that can drive the growth of TV AdEx are belief in the branding power of television, cricket tournaments IPL and ICC Men's T. 20 Cricket World Cup and general elections e.g.. The PMAR provides insights and forecasts for the future by analysing the amount and usage of advertising funds over the previous year. It seeks to comprehend the difficulties and possibilities that face marketers and the print, broadcast, radio, out-of-home, online, and film industries. PMAR's comprehensive data and insights allow advertisers, media planners/buyers, and brands to evaluate the previous year and make informed plans for the upcoming one. For information on current market trends and significant advancements across a range of media, media owners, marketers, and specialists in media buying and planning should consult this report.

Regarding Rejecting Anil Kapoors Part in Slumdog Millionaire

Regarding Rejecting Anil Kapoors Part in Slumdog Millionaire

Recently, Shah Rukh Khan revealed that he received an offer to appear in the Oscar-winning movie Slumdog Millionaire. The actor gave an explanation for why he turned down the film's portrayal of Kaun Banega Crorepati's show host. It should be mentioned that Shah Rukh Khan was hosting the same program at the time for a TV network. "Yeah, Slumdog [Millionaire] was there, now that you mention it," SRK stated at the World Government Summit 2024 in Dubai. And I hang out with Mr. Boyle a lot (Danny Boyle). He's really charming. However, I was successfully performing Kaun Banega Crorepati on television at the time. Additionally, I had the impression that the story's host was extremely cruel.Speaking about his decision to turn down the role that Anil Kapoor eventually got, SRK continued, "I was being dishonest and cheating as the host (in the movie)." I recently discovered that it's extremely odd that I cheat in the movie while hosting on KBC. I thus told Danny Boyle (Mr. Boyle) that there are actors far better than me and that I would really not want to do it. And I believe Mr. Anil Kapoor succeeded in his role as host; he was outstanding.King Khan also revealed at the same Summit that he has never received a significant Hollywood crossover project offer. "I've said this honestly, but nobody believes me," the megastar exclaimed. I have not received any substantial crossover work offers. It's possible that I spoke with others. I have many wonderful contacts in the West, in the English and American film industries, but I have not received a single job offer. Actors often express a desire to transition into new roles, but I still need to work on pleasing the audiences I already have rather than trying to please everyone. I haven't actually received an offer to star in a movie in Hollywood or England."

The report also stated that the Amit Joshi and Aradhana Sah film earned ₹ 3.85 crore on Tuesday. The film has made ₹ 41.35 crore total. The protagonists of Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya are an engineer named Aryan Agnihotri and a robot girl named Super Intelligent Female Robot Automation (Sifra). Rakesh Bedi, Ashish Verma, Dharmendra, Dimple Kapadia, and Rakesh Kumar all had prominent roles in the film. Maddock Films and Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya collaborated on the film's production.The producers held a special screening of Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya in Mumbai prior to its official release. Mira Rajput, the spouse of Shahid Kapoor, was present. On her Instagram Stories after the film, Mira thanked her husband Shahid and the Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya crew. She wrote, "Complete laughter riot" for the film. Overwhelming entertainment after a long time. Love, joy, dancing, masti, and a moving message at the conclusion." "You were pitch perfect," Mira said in reference to Kriti Sanon's performance, and she called her husband Shahid Kapoor "The OG lover boy.""What Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya wants to drive at becomes amply clear when the single hero tells his married male friend that the robotic woman who has strayed into his life is better than a nagging wife," wrote film critic Saibal Chatterjee in his NDTV review. Because they think a woman needs to be designed to follow orders, neither of the two blinks when that statement is made. If it gives you any comfort, the two men aren't completely toxic, even though they may be self-centered.These characters star in a sloppily drawn comedy of manners that is openly and shamelessly sexist, a mash-up of an irritating Kabir Singh and a nonsensical Pyaar Ka Punchnama.
