<p>The second look poster for the upcoming Malayalam thriller <em>Kalamkaval</em> is here. Mammootty looks menacing and feels eerily similar to his look in the 2014 psychological thriller <em>Munnariyippu</em>, which makes a strong case for the recent rumours that the superstar will be playing a negative role in the movie.</p>

<h2>Based on the infamous serial killer Cyanide Mohan?</h2>
<p>There is a lot of speculation online that the movie will feature 21 female actresses and is based on the life of infamous serial killer Cyanide Mohan, who murdered 20 women in Karnataka from 2003 to 2009.</p>
<p>Mohan targeted women between the ages of 22 and 35 who came from poor families that could not pay dowries. Mohan would offer to marry the women, asking for nothing in return, only to murder them after the wedding with cyanide pills and then rob their jewellery.</p>

Mammootty's fierce look in the new Kalamkaval poster is sparking buzz about his possible role as a serial killer in this upcoming Malayalam film.

The second look poster for the upcoming Malayalam thriller Kalamkaval is here. Mammootty looks menacing and feels eerily similar to his look in the 2014 psychological thriller Munnariyippu, which makes a strong case for the recent rumours that the superstar will be playing a negative role in the movie.

Mohan targeted women between the ages of 22 and 35 who came from poor families that could not pay dowries.

<p>Robbie Williams is calling on fans to be more mindful of celebrities&rsquo; personal space and the need for their privacy when out in public spaces.&nbsp;</p>
<h2><strong>Robbie Williams writes lengthy post for privacy</strong></h2>
<p>In a plea to fans on social media, Robbie Williams wrote about his experience indulging in fans&rsquo; requests for photographs. In a lengthy post, he wrote about people respecting celebrities' privacy needs. He wrote about an incident in which he was flying on a &ldquo;domestic flight, going across America,&rdquo; where he had &ldquo;three interactions with fellow passengers&rdquo; in which they asked for a photo with him.&nbsp;</p>
<p>He explained how each interaction went down, offering an insight into the crippling anxiety he feels at the best of times, that would only &ldquo;spike&rdquo; with taking photos with people, particularly after he had only gotten two hours of sleep and &ldquo;wrangled&rdquo; four kids through the airport.&nbsp;</p>
<p>He wrote, &ldquo;There&rsquo;s a kind of unspoken law: as a celebrity, you should be accessible 24/7. Greet all strangers like you&rsquo;re the mayor of the best town anyone&rsquo;s ever visited. Make sure their wishes are met, whatever they are. Otherwise you&rsquo;re a [c-word]. There&rsquo;s no in-between.&rdquo;</p>

John Lithgow has big shoes to fill. The actor is all set to play Albus Dumbledore in the new Harry Potter series, which is based on JK Rowling's novels of the same name. While the actor has earned critical acclaim for his roles in shows and films like Interstellar and The Crown, Potter heads are sceptical over his casting as Dumbledore in the Harry Potter series. The late actor Michael Gambon famously played the character in the Harry Potter films. Now, Lithgow has responded to the fans, stating that he may not be an 'Englishman,' but has played the role of the former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Winston Churchill in one of his shows. 'Played Winston Churchill and did just fine' While talking on BBC's One Show, Lithgow said, "I will be following the great Michael Gambon. I'm not an Englishman, although I've played one on TV," he said on BBC's The One Show. "I remind everyone that I did play Winston Churchill on The Crown and did just fine." The actor assured fans that he was the best choice for the role. "But yes, I mean, it's an enormous thrill. But I know there were plenty of people appalled that an American should be hired to play the ultimate English wizard. But, I will do my best," added John as quoted by Deadline.

And I think that -- I don't think it's gonna be that hard a job, and, we'll just go back and forth," said John while talking to hosts Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes, and Will Arnett.

<p>Nikhil Nanda&rsquo;s story is inspiring because it blends quiet resilience, strong values, and sharp vision. He doesn&rsquo;t chase the limelight, but he commands respect in boardrooms and at star-studded family dinners. Whether it&rsquo;s his deep-rooted Bollywood ties or his impressive business turnaround, Nikhil is a reminder that some legacies are built not just on fame, but on hard work and heart</p>

Born in 1974 in Delhi to industrialist Rajan Nanda and Ritu Nanda, Nikhil grew up surrounded by legacy. His mother was the daughter of the legendary showman Raj Kapoor, and sister to Bollywood actors Rishi Kapoor, Randhir Kapoor, and Rajiv Kapoor.

He’s part of two of India’s most iconic families—one that shaped Indian cinema and the other that revolutionised Indian industry. But Nikhil Nanda’s story isn’t just about where he comes from; it’s about what he’s built on his own terms. Born in 1974 in Delhi to industrialist Rajan Nanda and Ritu Nanda, Nikhil grew up surrounded by legacy. His mother was the daughter of the legendary showman Raj Kapoor, and sister to Bollywood actors Rishi Kapoor, Randhir Kapoor, and Rajiv Kapoor. That makes Ranbir Kapoor, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Karisma Kapoor, Aadar Jain, and Armaan Jain his first cousins. In 1997, he married Shweta Bachchan, daughter of Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan—bringing the Bachchans into the fold as well. Abhishek Bachchan is his brother-in-law, while his children Navya Naveli and Agastya Nanda are already stepping into the spotlight in their own way. Agastya made his acting debut with The Archies in 2023, and Navya has made a name for herself as an entrepreneur and podcast host.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-IN;">A day before <em>Kesari Chapter 2</em> was released in theatres, the film&rsquo;s leading hero, Akshay Kumar, who plays Sir C Sankaran Nair in the film, urged the media at the film&rsquo;s premiere to not miss the film's beginning. While Kumar has a point since the first scene depicts the Jallianwala Bagh massacre in great detail- which serves as the backdrop of this courtroom drama, it still is a difficult scene to watch.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-IN;">The Jallianwala Bagh massacre has been represented in books, films, and poems for years now. The tragedy shook the Indian conscience back then and till date continues to be one of the biggest blunders that the British committed while they ruled over our country. Director Karan Singh Tyagi&rsquo;s film <em>Kesari Part 2 </em>highlights the incidents that followed the massacre and how a certain anglicized advocate who had received Knighthood for his pro-British work changed sides and spoke up against the brutality.&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-IN;">C Sankaran Nair is a successful lawyer who is known to fight on behalf of the British in court. Awarded with Knighthood, Sir Nair is given the task of being the only Indian in the enquiry committee set up to investigate the massacre. Nair&rsquo;s presence is seen as a token representation by the British, who know his allegiance lies with them. But while investigating the case, and an encounter with one of the survivors (Krish Rao), Nair suddenly realises he is on the wrong side, fighting on behalf of the oppressors.&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<h2 class="MsoNormal">The writing of Kesari Chapter 2</h2>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-IN;">A spiritual sequel of <em>Kesari, </em>the film is a taut&nbsp;courtroom drama that works for its premise, its writing, and smart performances by the actors. It has been over 100 years since General Dyer and his army ruthlessly fired at innocent people at the Jallianwala Bagh in Amritsar. Since then, the tragedy has been replayed in several films and books and remains one of the most important chapters in the Indian freedom struggle. Most of us have studied in school about the tragedy and how it became a catalyst for subsequent events in the freedom struggle. Presenting such a well-documented event on screen is not easy. Sure, most of us are not aware of the case that followed, but writers Amritpal Singh Bindra and Tyagi ensure that the screenplay is riveting and engaging. Courtroom dramas, too, are tricky to write and enact, as long, drawn-out dialogues and the limited physical movement of actors can be a drag after a point. But the writing of <em>Kesari Chapter 2</em> is solid and keeps the viewers hooked throughout. They keep the subplots almost minimal, which helps to keep the focus on the main plot intact for the viewers. Impactful dialogues by Sumit Saxena help the taught screenplay and the overall narrative.&nbsp;<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-IN;">The actors are all in top form. Akshay Kumar&rsquo;s stardom looms large only in the beginning when his character is introduced with a Kathakali performance. I am willing to ignore the brief Kathakali performance simply because Kumar delivers a smart, compelling performance, never going overboard with his expressions and emotions. Giving him company is R Madhavan as his rival, Neville McKinley, an angsty lawyer who wants to put Nair down with a court verdict on Dyer. The face-off between the two actors at court is well enacted, with both Kumar and Madhavan delivering smart performances.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ansi-language: EN-IN;">The women have limited scope but are equally good.

Sunny Deol, Randeep Hooda, and others face legal issues as an FIR is filed over their film Jaat, stirring controversy in the entertainment industry.

Actors Sunny Deol, Randeep Hooda, Vineet Kumar, director Gopichand, and producer Naveen Malineni are facing legal trouble after an FIR was lodged against them in connection with their recent film Jaat. The move follows protests from members of the Christian community, who allege that certain scenes in the film disrespect Jesus Christ and Christian practices.

Legal action taken after complaints On Thursday night, police in Punjab’s Jalandhar registered the FIR at the Sadar Police Station under Section 299 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). This section pertains to deliberate and malicious acts intended to outrage religious feelings by insulting religion or its beliefs.
