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.

Lekin, I never believed in oiling before.Behind her shiny hair, Chitrangada Singh reveals a secret combination.
On the podcast Let's Talk for Namitaa, Chitrangada Singh recently talked about her hair care regimen and credited oiling for improving the quality of her hair. "I never used to believe in oiling, lekin bahut farak padta, oiling is very, very important," she said. The quality of your hair has improved since I started using rosemary, pepper mint, almond oil, and teen cheezon ko mix karke mujhe diya hai kisni.IndianExpress.com contacted Dr. Bhawuk Dhir, Consultant Dermatology, PSRI Hospital, to verify the actor's claim. He concurred that oiling has advantages, "but with realistic expectations."According to Dr. Dhir, "regular hair oiling can be scientifically effective, but its impact varies from person to person." He explains that oils don't directly promote the growth of new hair by activating biological growth pathways. The main functions of oils are as protecting and emollients. They protect the hair shaft from friction and environmental harm, prevent breakage, lessen dryness, and seal in moisture," he says. During oil application, a light scalp massage may also promote improved blood circulation. Dr. Dhir continues, "The evidence is stronger for improved texture and reduced damage rather than dramatic hair growth, even though this creates a healthier scalp environment."

First look at New York’s 34,000-seater Nassau County International Cricket Stadium that will host India vs Pakistan clash at T20 World Cup
No matter where the match is played, India vs. Pakistan in an ICC event is always one of the highlights of the competition. Even though India won the 50-over World Cup match in Ahmedabad, the match between the archrivals at the T20 World Cup in 2022 at the MCG featured a Virat Kohli spectacular that is likely among their best ever. The legendary match will take place in New York on June 9th for the forthcoming T20 World Cup in the West Indies and the USA. The construction of the stadium began on Wednesday and is anticipated to be completed in three months. ICC Chief Executive Geoff Allardice stated, "We are excited to be unveiling the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York ahead of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024." "Work on the stadium, which will hold 34,000 cricket fans, has begun, marking an extremely significant milestone in the run-up to the biggest ICC event ever," Geoff Allardice continued. June 2nd will see the USA take on Canada in the opening game; Barbados will host the June 29th championship game. What sort of pitch should we anticipate?

The Next Decade in Indian Technology Begins Now
Even though National Startup Day is only in its second year, there is one obvious hint that the businesses it honors are beginning to recognize its increasing importance. Although there was a lot of enthusiasm for the first National Startup Day in 2022, it became louder the following year, and in 2024 it reached a crescendo.Additionally, press releases requesting "quotes" surrounding National Startup Day are circulating like crazy this time around; it looks like the startup PR machine has found its calling.However, there's also a sense that, at least in our opinion, the 2024 National Startup Day will be a turning point for Indian technology. This is as much an Inc42 day as it is a startup day, having witnessed this journey firsthand since the very beginning, even before Startup India entered the scene, and being at the center of it as a watchdog and voice of support.In 2014, when our course started, the term "startup" was unfamiliar and out of the ordinary. Ten years later, it's difficult to ignore or be unaffected by tech startups. As we commemorate our tenth anniversary this year, we can't help but feel a little serendipitous that our path somewhat parallels that of Indian companies.Ten Years Of Startups Coincidentally, the commencement of Startup India's tenth year coincides with its founding in 2015, which has significantly accelerated the tech and startup environment since then. The young of India's hopes of becoming entrepreneurs were sparked in numerous ways by Startup India.In fact, there aren't many economies that can match India's in terms of sheer size when it comes to laws and regulations designed specifically with entrepreneurs in mind. For instance, although other European nations have attempted to adopt it in the past, no other nation has a high-profile "National Startup Day" with festivities and award shows scheduled like India.In the last ten years, startups have developed to the point where they are now a common topic of conversation at dinner parties in millions of homes and have significantly altered India's social and economic landscape. Examples include the widespread use of UPI applications on street corners and the gig economy that these apps are driving. Furthermore, being identified as a company founder naturally raises expectations of wealth and glamour. Over the past ten years, startups have altered how Indians communicate, obtain services, and make purchases, spurring quicker economic growth and innovation. The Indian workforce's productivity has significantly grown because to the startup ecosystem, said Pai.But only through adversity has this maturity emerged. The last two years have arguably demonstrated to us what the difficult part entails: developing companies in an ethical, sustainable, and value-creating manner, rather than focusing solely on valuation.

Consumers consume more than five hours of online entertainment on their TVs
The main benefits of streaming on TV include enhanced sound and visual quality, a wide selection of material from OTT providers, and the ease of viewing on a large screen.Customers are increasingly choosing to stream their favorite TV episodes and movies on television, according to a study. In contrast to other available options like smartphones, tablets, and laptops, 78% of respondents preferred streaming online content on their TVs through streaming sticks, smart TVs, and set-top boxes, according to a NielsenIQ study on TV streaming trends commissioned by Amazon in December 2023.Compared to fewer than three hours during the week, nearly 66% of respondents streamed for five hours a day on the weekends. Furthermore, 74% of them watched the same with family, particularly their spouse and kids, and 97% of them preferred to stream internet entertainment on TV during dinnertime. The study found that respondents most frequently viewed items in the comedy genre. In order of preference, sports, thrillers, romances, horror, foreign TV series, and news came in close succession.TV streaming is preferred since it's more comfortable and offers a better watching experience. People are streaming on TV due to improved video and audio quality, ease of access to a wide range of material from OTT providers and internet sources, and availability of an active broadband connection at home. This inclination is also influenced by ergonomic benefits. Watching TV may also help you keep a good posture, which can reduce the aches and pains that come with occasionally holding your phone while watching video.For Indian audiences, speed is important. Lag-free streaming (39%) and a large selection of OTT Apps (24%) were the most requested characteristics by respondents when it came to TV streaming. The ability to stream internet material and live TV shows from DTH channels on a single screen, as well as the availability of voice assistants for content search and smart home appliance control, were additional preferences.Since its inception, online video streaming has advanced significantly, as have consumer streaming habits. Our inclination to watch media on the television, the largest screen in our homes, hasn't changed. Your favorite TV series, films, sports, and more are easily accessible on Fire TV, according to Parag Gupta, Director and Country Manager, Amazon Devices India.

New Delhi: As the eighth season of Koffee With Karan comes to an end, Karan Johar engages with a number of the nation's most well-known comedians and content producers in the show's finale.

Karan Johar, playing the inquisitive host as always, touched upon Orry's rather confounding popularity and asked Orry if he remembers the first time he felt famous. To this, Orry had a rather unexpected answer. He said that there is only one person to be blamed for his popularity and that is filmmaker Boney Kapoor. FYI: Orry is also BFFs with Boney Kapoor's daughters and Bollywood stars Janhvi Kapoor and Khushi Kapoor. Boney Kapoor is the person to blame, if you must. Put him in the dock. Since it was his fault that I received attention for the first time. The media was clicking, clicking, clicking as I entered the gate while I was at his daughter's birthday celebration. Orry disclosed, "And Boney uncle, being the gentleman that he is, had come down to receive me." Orry went on to say, "I was so shy, I was shaking," admitting that he was terrified of the photographers during their initial encounter. "Boney uncle, they were calling my name," I informed him. He then asked, "Did you pose?" I replied that I didn't.Grabbing my wrist and throwing me in front of the press, he exclaimed, "This is Orry, this is a photo, this is mera bachcha hai." Take a photo of him. He is my offspring]. The match was always there, and so was the gunpowder, and Boney just lit it. And now I'm on Koffee, so I should write him a cheque,” as Karan Johar burst out laughing. While on the show, Orry also revealed a rather unique strategy that he and his team – who he refers to as his minions – have planned for his “brand”.I tell that story when you see me on screen and in paparazzi pages, and I read all day long, from dawn to dusk. I'm reading every review of my photos in the comments section. And everyone is saying, "Just wait, his 15 minutes are about to end, he's going to disappear." It's the fame that's getting to him. Yes, my attitude is getting out of control and yes, the fame is getting to me. I am planning my own demise even though I believe I am superior to everyone else. Now is the moment when everything that rises must also fall. The fastest star to burn out is the brightest one, he said.
