Resident Evil, a horror movie based on a video game franchise, swept the North American box office with a $60 million opening weekend, industry estimates showed Sunday. The Sony-distributed movie is directed by Zach Cregger and stars Austin Abrams, who plays a medical courier battling mutant creatures to deliver a package to a remote hospital. Resident Evil displaced last week's top performer, Warner Bros' Practical Magic 2, a long-awaited sequel starring Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman, into a distant second place. The story of the modern-day witches, who face a curse that sees any man they fall in love with doomed to an early death, took $12.2 million after last weekend knocking Sony's Spider-Man from its weeks-long perch at the top. Spidey took another $6.5 million this weekend, bringing its total take in the United States and Canada to $944.5 million. It was followed by another of 2026's strongest performers, The Odyssey, which took $4.9 million. For the second consecutive weekend, Coyote vs Acme took fifth place, with Will Forte and an animated Wile E. Coyote snaring another $4.5 million for Falling Forward Films.

In the sketch, Sheeran's character says he does not want to alienate either human or robot fans.

Ed Sheeran has been facing backlash following the removal of Macklemore from the remaining US dates of his Loop Tour. Now, the singer has become the subject of a new joke on SNL UK, using an absurd human-versus-AI conflict involving a fictional AI version of Princess Diana to poke fun at his response to the controversy. SNL UK reference of King Charles over soon forgetting Princess Diana The latest SNL UK cold open brought together three very different subjects dominating recent headlines — artificial intelligence, the British royal family and Ed Sheeran’s ongoing tour controversy. The sketch, which aired on September 19, opened at Buckingham Palace with Larry Dean’s King Charles meeting technology executives to discuss the risks and possibilities of AI. The executives then introduced him to D.I.A.N.A., short for “Deeply Intelligent Autonomous Neurokinetic Android".

YG producer and rapper Perry Thomas Borja has been missing since he was last seen in Los Angeles in 2010. Sixteen years later, SBS’ Unanswered Questions has appealed to the public for information about his whereabouts. Read to know more. 

Perry, the rapper and producer who played an important role in the early musical journey of YG Entertainment, is back in the spotlight for a very different reason. The American musician, whose full name is Perry Thomas Borja, has remained out of public view for years, with his whereabouts unknown since he was last seen in Los Angeles in 2010. Who is Perry? Perry, aka Perry Thomas Borja, born in California in 1971 and raised partly in Guam, moved to South Korea in the mid-1990s to begin his music career. He was a founding member of the collective that became YG Family and served as the label's main in-house producer. He helped YG's early identity by blending heavy hip-hop and R&B beats into Korean music before the genres became mainstream.

In 2001, he released his full-length solo album, Perry By Storm, which features a young, teenage G-Dragon on the track Storm.

On September 17, SBS's investigative programme Unanswered Questions posted an appeal featuring photographs of Perry and asked people who know his current whereabouts, or who are in contact with his family, to provide information. The programme said Perry had been active in Korea from the mid-1990s before he was last seen in Los Angeles in 2010. The appeal has now brought his disappearance back into public discussion after years of speculation surrounding his whereabouts. Also Read: Maharaja 2 confirmed!

Its biggest strength is the unusual pairing of ordinary men with a mission far beyond their abilities, while Kunal Kemmu's comic sensibility gives the film its distinct flavour."</p>

<h2>WION’s review of Daayra</h2><p><i>WION’s</i> Nikita Toppo reviewed the film and wrote, “The film drags slightly in some portions, and a few characters feel underexplored. However, Daayra has a strong story and a powerful cast. Kareena Kapoor Khan and Prithviraj Sukumaran both deliver solid performances throughout its 143-minute runtime. Neither character is reduced to a conventional hero or villain, which makes their conflict more engaging. At the end of the day, Daayra is about how people understand justice and what happens when those entrusted with enforcing the law decide how far they are willing to go.”</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>

AI-generated actress Tilly Norwood is making headlines after the release of her latest interview.

Also Read: Octavia Spencer, Hannah Waddingham's Ride Or Die cancelled after one season What happened during the interview The glitch happened when Conti asked her whether the actors appearing alongside Norwood were real people or computer-generated characters. Norwood initially responded, saying, "It's an interesting point, Tom. My film Misaligned is a hybrid production, meaning real directors, writers and editors are still very much involved. It's not about replacing anyone, but about exploring new ways to tell stories." Conti then repeated the question, to which Norwood replied, "Ah, right. You're asking about the other actors in Misaligned. They're all digital twins just like me." Also Read: Ed Sheeran on Macklemore's removal, Gaza conflict during Philadelphia concert

<p>Hanita Bhambri is making her own space in the music industry as a singer, composer, and lyricist. Bhambri, who has spent years independently creating and releasing music, recently hit a major milestone by joining Yash’s recently released film, <i>Toxic</i>, marking her debut in film music as both a lyricist and vocalist.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In an exclusive chat with <i>WION</i>, Hanita discussed her unplanned <i>Toxic</i> journey, working with Vishal Mishra and the film’s team, her debut album "<i>Shoharat</i>", and how her personal experiences have shaped her writing talent. She also spoke about her creative collaborations with many artists and the dreams she hopes to manifest next.</p><p><br><strong>WION: You have built a strong following through your independent music and now Toxic marks a major step into film music? How did this opportunity come your way?</strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Hanita:</strong> I’ve been releasing independent music for almost eight years. It’s been a very, very long journey, but I feel like talent can go undiscovered for a long time. If you keep working hard at it, ultimately, one or the other will take notice, and you do get catapulted into bigger opportunities. I think that’s what happened with Toxic. Initially, Vishal Mishra’s team had reached out to me as a lyricist because I’m also a composer, lyricist and singer. As an independent artist, you’re like a one-man team. You’re doing everything yourself. Even when it comes to videos and music videos, there are multiple videos that I’ve directed myself because that’s how you conserve on budgets. You tend to rely on yourself for most things.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I think that’s what happened with <i>Toxic</i>. They were looking for an English lyric writer, and my name was recommended. They called me in and told me it was for a really big project and that they would give me more details once I got there. When I arrived, they told me it was for <i>Toxic</i>. I was immediately very excited because I already knew about the movie. I was very excited to work on the film, and working with Vishal Mishra itself was a big dream for me.</p>

<p>When the opportunity came, I kept telling myself not to overthink it. As artists, we sometimes tend to self-sabotage opportunities that come our way because we think, Maybe this is too big for me,' or ‘What if I’m not right for this?’ I told myself to put those thoughts, as well as the scale of the movie, behind me and just treat it like any other song that I would write.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>While I was presenting the song and the lyrics, I started humming along to the composition. That’s when Vishal Mishra took notice and said, Hey, you’ve got a really nice voice. I told him that I also sing, and he asked, Do you want to sing the song too? Initially, I had even asked on the call if there was a chance I would get to sing the song, but they had told me they were only looking for a lyric writer. So I kept my expectations in check. I was still very happy to come on board as a writer. Then Vishal put Geetu Mohandas ma’am on a call and said, I’m just going to let this artist sing the song for you. She’s written the lyrics and she’s also going to sing them. Just hear it out. He put her on speaker, and I sang the whole song. He then asked her how she liked my voice, and she said, Yes, she sounds great. He then said, Okay, she’s dubbing the song for us. And I was like, Wow, could life really be this easy?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>When I’m writing for myself, I’m the only judge and critic. I’m only thinking, Do I like it enough? But when you’re writing for a film or a series, I think the biggest thing is that you have to honour the vision of the person who created the film or series. Ultimately, it’s about serving and honouring their vision. You also don’t have that much time. You have to work with very tight deadlines and finish the work within a specified amount of time. Whenever I’m writing my own music, I put myself in that position. I put myself in the character’s shoes. My writing has always been such that there’s already a movie scene playing in my head, whether it eventually goes into a movie or not.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>With <i>Toxic</i> too, the moment I was told about the characters and the situation I had to write for, I put myself in both characters’ shoes. Not many details about the movie were revealed to me because, of course, it was top secret. I was only told about the scene. The rest of it was about genuinely putting myself in both characters’ shoes and thinking, “How would I sing this if I were this character?” or “How would I feel?” That’s just how it happened. It was challenging, but it was also creatively very stimulating.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>WION: Talking more about your Toxic journey, you have written and sung the song in the project. Which role felt more challenging, the lyricist or the vocalist?</strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Hanita:</strong> I feel that, with the lyrics, my first draft was approved, which was quite shocking to me. I was expecting them to say, ‘This is what I have written,’ because the lyrics are very unconventional. They’re not spoon-feeding the audience. You really have to sit with the lyrics and understand the narrative shifts happening in the song and what the song is trying to say.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It also foreshadows a lot of things, which I realised while watching the movie. I was like, Hey, wait, I’ve written this line. There’s a line that says, Hand me the gun, my love, I’ll never shoot, and there’s also a scene between Tara Sutaria and Yash where he literally drops his gun. Even if he has the gun with him, he can never shoot her.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I remember thinking, Wait! My mom even asked me, Did you know about the scene when you were writing? And I said, No, I did not. So, I feel like with the lyrics, it was just this click that happened. Everything immediately fell into place. Without really knowing the entire story of the movie and just knowing the brief for the song, I was able to put across the essence of the movie and how obsessive love can feel. With the singing, of course, it was right in my wheelhouse. But you have to dub it for a few hours. I think it took about two hours to write the lyrics and around four to five hours to do the vocals, with breaks. So, I think the vocals were a little more challenging.</p>

<p>I can sing in different tones, and I have this unique gift of mimicking singers. I can mimic Shakira, I can mimic Billie Eilish, and I can sing in any sort of tone they ask me to. So, I think the challenge was really nailing down the emotion behind the song and the composition.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Because I’m used to singing my own compositions and my own songs, I usually have the songs memorised before I record them. Whereas with this, you hear the song and immediately record it. I think that part of playback singing, or dubbing vocals, is very challenging because you don’t get the time to learn the song. You don’t get the time to memorise the melody; you have to immediately hear it and then record it. So, I think that was slightly more challenging than writing the lyrics.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>WION: You met Yash, Tara Sutaria, and Toxic Team. So, what was your first interaction with them like, and what stood out to you about the experience?</strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Hanita: </strong>I hadn’t met the team before. This song happened just three days before the music launch, so at that point, I wasn’t even sure whether the song would make it to the album. There are a lot of discussions and deliberations around songs, especially with projects of this scale, and you have to make sure that the song fits the film. You’re never really sure whether it will be kept or shelved.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>So, I wasn’t sure whether the song would eventually make it into the movie or whether it would only be part of the album. I remember that evening, when I was going to record the vocals and had just written the song, the entire team from <i>Zee Music</i> was there to discuss the event, which was going to happen in the next three days.</p>

<p>Then, about two days later, the night before the event, I got confirmation that I was going to perform at the show. When I got on stage, I saw everyone together. The moment I started performing, I was aware that I was a newcomer and people didn’t know what to expect from me, especially since it was an English song. The entire cast was sitting in the front row — Yash, Kiara, Tara, Huma, Rukmini, Geetu ma’am and the producer.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The moment I started singing, their expressions were so distracting because they were reacting so well. The song was also highly confidential. They didn’t send me the song beforehand because they didn’t want any leaks. So, I didn’t even remember the entire song. They had put the lyrics on a teleprompter. So, my eyes kept shifting between the teleprompter and the cast because I would get distracted by their reactions. Kiara was looking at me with her jaw open. Huma was looking at Vishal, and Vishal was reacting as if to say, “Oh my God, what is her voice?” Everyone was reacting in different ways.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>It was unbelievable for me because this was such a talented group of actors who have seen so many singers throughout their careers, and seeing the way they were reacting was insane to me. I think the first time I spoke to Yash was on stage itself. Yash was also doing a namaste to me during this. After the event, when everything was over, all of us went on stage for a photo opportunity. The moment I got on stage, Tara was like, “Oh my God, girl, what is your voice? I’m going to be listening to this song on loop.”</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Rukmini was also extremely encouraging. She said, “Wow, I can’t believe it. Where have you been hiding this voice?” Huma was equally encouraging. I then had a three- to four-minute conversation with Yash. He told me that my voice was amazing and that he loved the lyrics of the song. I also got to click a picture with him and my dad. It was my mom’s birthday that day, so everyone was asking, “Where is your mom? We want to wish her a happy birthday.”</p>

<p>I also got to meet Geetu ma’am on stage for the first time. She hugged me and said, “God bless you.” I didn’t get to have a one-on-one conversation with Kiara, which was disappointing because <i>Toxic</i> is one of the biggest projects I’ve been part of. Earlier, I had worked on <i>Raatan Lambiyan</i> with Tanishk Bagchi and Jubin Nautiyal for a Spotify single, and Kiara was also part of that project. So, this was another big opportunity where she was involved.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Hopefully, I get to do another project where Kiara is there so I can finally meet her and talk to her. We did interact on stage, but I couldn’t have that one-on-one conversation. She was also such an amazing actor, and meeting the entire cast and crew was a very, very special experience.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>WION: You recently released your debut album Shoharat. What was the primary idea behind the album, and what does ‘Shoharat’ mean to you today?</strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Hanita:</strong> I wrote <i>Shoharat</i> during a very, very difficult phase of my life. I wrote it about how exploitative the industry can be and how people can sell you dreams, build you up and then watch you fall. I had certain experiences after moving to Mumbai. I came with a lot of hopes and dreams, like any artist, and that came with a lot of promises. Over time, watching your self-confidence erode because of the same people you have so much respect and admiration for can be very difficult.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>When you respect someone so much and their words, thoughts and opinions mean so much to you, you start questioning yourself. You think, “Maybe I’m not meant for this. Maybe this is all there is to my musical career. Maybe I should stop wasting my time if they’re telling me to stop.”</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>I was filled with so much anger, frustration and pain. I thought, “I can either let this angst, pain and anger completely destroy me, or I can take it and turn it into something beautiful.” I think there’s something very beautiful about turning your pain into power. As an artist, or even at different stages of life, there are times when we feel powerless — when we feel like we have no power in a situation. I didn’t have the stardom, the fan base or the industry status to say or do anything to people who were set on destroying me. So, what could I do? I could write about it.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>My power is in my pen, my power is in my voice and my power is in my storytelling. I decided that I was going to do that. Even if there were only 10 people supporting me on this journey, I was going to write for those 10 people. There are so many people who go through similar challenges, whether in their workplaces or personal lives, where they have felt completely powerless. I wanted to take that feeling and write about it.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><i>Shoharat</i> is not about the pursuit of fame. It’s about what the pursuit of fame does to artists, whether they are actors, models, singers, songwriters or lyricists, and how you persevere despite people breaking you down.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This entire collection of songs came from that experience, and I’m grateful for every experience in my life. Otherwise, I would never have written this album. I would have continued writing happy, sweet songs on the guitar, but I discovered a new side of myself. I discovered a new songwriting ability. I realised I could write such cutting lyrics, experiment with hip-hop and rap, put a guitar into one of the songs and do whatever I wanted creatively. I could even write a house song. Things I didn’t know I was capable of doing creatively came out through this album.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>WION: You have collaborated with artists such as Zayden, Raghav, Sejal, and Avanti. What do you look for in a creative collaborator?</strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Hanita:</strong> Oh, whenever I'm collaborating with someone, it's such an exciting experience because I feel like a new side of me will come out as a songwriter and a singer, something that I wouldn't have been able to create on my own, another person coming in will bring in some new energy, some new ideas, some new creativity and all of the collaborations that I did, whether it was with Zayden, Raghav, Sejal, Avanti and also I did a collaboration with Vayu, and all collaborations have their own unique experiences.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>In some songs, there was a lot of back-and-forth and a lot of ideation. With some songs, it was like, you know, sung for the first time or wrote something, and it just clicked. But everything was so unique. Whenever I'm collaborating with someone, I think the first thing I look for is who the person is. To me, it's very important how that person is, how that person thinks, you know? Are they writing a song for the heck of it, or are they writing to really tell a story? Is it coming from a genuine place or not?</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>And with all the people I have collaborated with, I've been a fan of their work. I liked their work so much, only then was I able to work with them. Otherwise, that, you know, that feeling just doesn't come. Whenever I listen to a track someone sends me and I love it, only then am I able to, you know, work on it. Otherwise, it just can't be done half-heartedly. Otherwise, I will say, 'Alright, buddy, I'll help you as a writer.' But I will not sing that song unless, you know, I genuinely feel, 'Man, I can make this song my own as well.'"</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>WION: After the success of Toxic, what is the one dream collaboration or project you are hoping to manifest next?</strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Hanita: </strong>Choosing just one is very difficult, but I have a lot of dreams. I want to work with Amit Trivedi. I want to work with A. R. Rahman. I want to sing in a Vishal Bhardwaj movie. I want my song to be in one of Shah Rukh Khan's movies. I want to open for Sunidhi Chauhan someday. Also, to have a huge sundowner set of my own at Lollapalooza. I have many such dreams. Manifesting all of them. God willing.</p>

Singer Hanita Bhambri opens up in an exclusive chat with WION about her debut in Yash starrer Toxic, working with Vishal Mishra, and her musical journey. Read to know more. 

Hanita Bhambri is making her own space in the music industry as a singer, composer, and lyricist. Bhambri, who has spent years independently creating and releasing music, recently hit a major milestone by joining Yash’s recently released film, Toxic, marking her debut in film music as both a lyricist and vocalist. In an exclusive chat with WION, Hanita discussed her unplanned Toxic journey, working with Vishal Mishra and the film’s team, her debut album "Shoharat", and how her personal experiences have shaped her writing talent. She also spoke about her creative collaborations with many artists and the dreams she hopes to manifest next. WION: You have built a strong following through your independent music and now Toxic marks a major step into film music? How did this opportunity come your way? Hanita: I’ve been releasing independent music for almost eight years. It’s been a very, very long journey, but I feel like talent can go undiscovered for a long time. If you keep working hard at it, ultimately, one or the other will take notice, and you do get catapulted into bigger opportunities. I think that’s what happened with Toxic. Initially, Vishal Mishra’s team had reached out to me as a lyricist because I’m also a composer, lyricist and singer. As an independent artist, you’re like a one-man team. You’re doing everything yourself. Even when it comes to videos and music videos, there are multiple videos that I’ve directed myself because that’s how you conserve on budgets. You tend to rely on yourself for most things. I think that’s what happened with Toxic. They were looking for an English lyric writer, and my name was recommended. They called me in and told me it was for a really big project and that they would give me more details once I got there. When I arrived, they told me it was for Toxic. I was immediately very excited because I already knew about the movie. I was very excited to work on the film, and working with Vishal Mishra itself was a big dream for me.
