<p>Shah Rukh Khan is one of the most acclaimed actors in Bollywood and has a crazy fan following worldwide. Last year, King Khan welcomed&nbsp;US Ambassador to India Eric Garcetti at&nbsp;his home Mannat.

<p>Recalling his visit, he said, "I think when I visited Shah Rukh Khan my first couple of weeks here, we talked cricket because, of course, he’s involved as a cricket owner. He owns part of the Los Angeles team. Everybody in my office went nuts."&nbsp;</p>

<br />
A division bench of Justices Revati Mohite-Dere and Justice Manjusha A Deshpande heard CBI's plea on Thursday after the investigative body approached the high court seeking a stay on the release of the docuseries. The CBI had appealed earlier to the special court but the plea was rejected on Tuesday.<br />

“Trial is ongoing, we want to know if an accused has a right. We are asking you, before we hear you (Netflix), why cannot the CBI watch the series? Because somewhere down the line, evidence is being recorded and witnesses are being examined,” the judge asked parties to the case.<br />

Advocate Kadam who is representing Netflix also argued that the CBI cannot approach the court at the last minute seeking postponement of the airing of the series and added that there was no gag order against witnesses.</p>

<p>Does how much binge-watching you do have anything to do with how much you pee at night? Turns out the perfect way to unwind may be why you're not getting quality sleep.&nbsp;</p>

<p>As per new research published in the journal Neurourology and Urodynamics, a team of researchers from China have concluded that a high majority of people who binge-watch suffer from nocturia — the need to wake up and urinate two or more times a night.</p>

<h2><strong>The research</strong></h2>

<p>The team analysed the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey's data from 2011 to 2016. Focusing on 13,294 participants aged 20 and older, they found that 32 per cent reported experiencing nocturia.</p>

<p>After adjusting for factors like age, sex, body mass index, ethnicity, education level, and diabetes status, the researchers discovered that the risk of nocturia was 48 per cent higher for those individuals who watched five or more hours of TV or videos per day compared to those who watched less than an hour.</p>

<p>"To our understanding, this study represents the first exploration of the correlation between TV and/or video viewing time and nocturia," said the researchers, as reported by The Guardian.</p>

<h2><strong>How can binge-watching cause someone to pee?</strong></h2>

<p>While the exact link between watching TV and nocturia remains unclear, the researchers suggested several possible explanations. They noted that extended periods of watching TV have been linked to a higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes, which happens to be a known risk factor for nocturia.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Additionally, sedentary behaviour associated with TV watching can lead to fluid retention in the legs, which may also contribute to nocturia.</p>

<p>Netflix dropped a new teaser promo of<em> Bridgerton</em> Season 3 on Valentine's Day and&nbsp;from the looks of it, it will be a battle of words between Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington. Colin and Penelope's friendship-turned-love story will be in focus in the third season of the highly popular Netflix show <em>Bridgerton.&nbsp;</em><br />
<br />
The previous two seasons showed Colin (Luke Newton) and Penelope (Nicola Coughlan) being friends, with Penelope having a secret crush on Colin. But things might get tricky as Penelope had heard Colin making fun of her with his friends at the Featherington Ball in the last season.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The teaser gives reference to that incident with Penelope walking out on Colin even as the latter confessed he had missed her.&nbsp;</p>

<p>“Certainly Miss Featherington has grown fatigued by the misleading actions of Colin Bridgerton… It would seem that this wallflower is done being trampled,” the makers captioned the teaser. The teaser has Penelope confronting Colin about his conversation with a few high society men at her mother’s ball in the Season 2 finale.&nbsp;</p>

Netflix dropped a new teaser promo of Bridgerton Season 3 on Valentine's Day and from the looks of it, it will be a battle of words between Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington.

Netflix dropped a new teaser promo of Bridgerton Season 3 on Valentine's Day and from the looks of it, it will be a battle of words between Colin Bridgerton and Penelope Featherington. Colin and Penelope's friendship-turned-love story will be in focus in the third season of the highly popular Netflix show Bridgerton. The previous two seasons showed Colin (Luke Newton) and Penelope (Nicola Coughlan) being friends, with Penelope having a secret crush on Colin. But things might get tricky as Penelope had heard Colin making fun of her with his friends at the Featherington Ball in the last season. The teaser gives reference to that incident with Penelope walking out on Colin even as the latter confessed he had missed her. “Certainly Miss Featherington has grown fatigued by the misleading actions of Colin Bridgerton… It would seem that this wallflower is done being trampled,” the makers captioned the teaser. The teaser has Penelope confronting Colin about his conversation with a few high society men at her mother’s ball in the Season 2 finale.

<p>Candace Bushnell, the prolific author behind the iconic novel that inspired <em>Sex and the City</em>, has disclosed that she won't be receiving any royalties from Netflix's recent deal to stream all six seasons of the popular TV series.</p>

<p>Originally paid $100,000 by HBO for the screen rights to her novel, Bushnell expressed her candid opinion on the matter, criticising the business dynamics in play. In an interview with The Times of London, she said, "All of these men who are in charge of things, they just keep moving these cards around to make money because every time they move the cards around somebody’s skimming. The way men do business is a Ponzi scheme."</p>

<p>Bushnell emphasised the gender disparity in financial success, stating, "The percentage of women in the 1 per cent who made their own money is about 3.5 per cent, and that’s shocking."</p>

<p>Meanwhile, the <em>Sex and the City</em> franchise continues to expand with a third season of its sequel, <em>And Just Like That</em>, following the lives of Carrie, Charlotte, and Miranda (played by Sarah Jessica Parker, Kristin Davis, and Cynthia Nixon). Notably, Kim Cattrall, who portrayed Samantha in the original series, chose not to participate in the reunion due to a longstanding feud with Parker.</p>

<p>Venturing beyond the world of television, Bushnell is taking her experiences on the road with a stage show titled <em>True Tales of Success and Sex and the City</em>. Recently performed in Palm Beach, the show is a blend of anecdotes and memoirs.</p>

<p>Bushnell also recently revealed that she was friends with Donald Trump in the 2000s, although they are no longer in contact. She talked about Trump's charm, stating, "He can be very charming if he wants to be. Obviously, that’s how he’s got where he is."</p>

<p>Netflix, the global streaming giant, has taken a significant stride towards transparency by divulging viewership data for 99 per cent of its expansive catalogue, comprising more than 18,000 titles available worldwide. The company recently published its inaugural report, titled What We Watched,&nbsp;encapsulating viewing statistics from January to June 2023. This marks the commencement of a planned semi-annual tradition, aiming to present a holistic view of viewership rather than focusing solely on top-performing content.</p>

<p>In a blog post, Netflix expressed the belief that this initiative, combined with its weekly Top 10 and Most Popular lists, will provide creators and industry stakeholders with deeper insights into audience preferences and resonances. The company acknowledged that 60 per cent of the titles in the first-half study had previously appeared in the Top 10 at some point, demonstrating a correlation between top-performing content and the overall viewership data.</p>

<p>The move towards transparency addresses long-standing concerns from Hollywood guilds, such as the Writers Guild of America (WGA) and Screen Actors Guild‐American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA), regarding the lack of clarity in streaming data. This issue became a focal point during recent dual strikes, with industry professionals often describing the streaming data as being confined to a "black box." Netflix's commitment to sharing more information, surpassing its streaming peers, began with the publication of weekly Top 10 lists in 2021 and representation in Nielsen's weekly snapshots.</p>

<p>During a media conference call, Co-CEO Ted Sarandos reflected on Netflix's evolution during the past decade and a half, acknowledging past criticism for operating in secrecy.

<p>The release of comprehensive viewing data is not solely motivated by Netflix's foray into advertising, clarified Sarandos. Instead, it seeks to offer verified numbers to industry stakeholders, akin to third-party verification by entities like Nielsen. The new report includes any title, whether original or licensed, watched for at least 50,000 hours in the six-month period, providing a broader scope while still reflecting familiar trends seen in the weekly charts.</p>

Tennis: Rafael Nadal and Carlos Alcaraz to face off in Netflix exhibition match in USA next year

<p>One of the most gifted filmmakers of our times Zoya Akhtar steps out of her comfort zone in her latest The Archies. At the onset, The Archies looks like a teenage romance story - after all, it launches six new faces in the film industry- three of them are star kids and already have their separate fan base. To be directed by one of the most prolific makers and be backed by one of the biggest OTT giants, Netflix, it does seem like a perfect launch pad for these young actors. The fact that The Archies is an Indian adaptation of the iconic Archie comic series just seems like a cherry on top. But can Akhtar be making a simple teeny bopper without an underlying message on the flawed society? Not quite. Does she succeed in delivering the message? Well, in parts.<br />
<br />
<strong>What is <em>The Archies</em> about?</strong><br />
<br />
We have all read <em>The Archies</em> comics at some point in our life, haven't we? If not read the comic book, we are surely familiar with Archie, Veronica and Betty. Akhtar along with co-writers Reema Kagti and &nbsp;Ayesha Devitre Dhillon sets the story in the 1960s and brings the American town Riverdale to India and makes it a fictitious town in the hills of north India where mostly anglo-Indians live. Archie (Agastya Nanda), Veronica (Suhana Khan), Betty (Khushi Kapoor) and the gang are 17-year-old school goers who are living a rather cocooned life. Archie wants to study music in London and become the next Cliff Richards- he even has a band <em>The Archies</em> that croons at almost all events in the town. Archie also is a confused lad, in love with two girls, the super rich, suave Veronica and her bestie and Archie's neighbour, simpleton Betty. While the young boy pines for both the girls, Archies' best friend Jughead (Mihir Ahuja) thinks it's a bad idea.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Amid love and career choices, Archie and his gang are suddenly made aware of the fact that their cute little Riverdale is going to get transformed all thanks to Mr Lodge, Veronica's dad who is planning to make a massive hotel at the heart of the town where at present Green park is situated. The park holds a lot of sentimental value for the people of the town and so the news is met with resistance from the young adults. But can Archie and the gang save their beloved Green Park? And who does Archie finally choose between Veronica and Betty forms the rest of the story.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
<strong>A musical&nbsp;</strong><br />
<br />
Akhtar narrates the story of <em>The Archies</em> through music. The film has 16 songs and a lot of the characters' internal conflicts are narrated through songs. For that matter, some of the most important moments of the film are all narrated through some soulful and foot-tapping music. Musicals like these- which form an important part of the narrative- are common in Hollywood. In India, the genre has not been explored to its full potential. There have been a few films in recent years but none have been able to connect with the audience. The Archies, in that sense, take a big risk. Not only does it fall into the bracket of a musical, but it also has a lot of English songs- all based on the retro 1960s beats. Many in India would not be able to connect. Having said that, The Archies has a splendid soundtrack. Composers Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, Ankur Tiwari, The Islanders, and Aditi Saigal (DOT) deliver some soulful ballads and foot-tapping numbers. The songs are also well-choreographed by Ganesh Hegde. The song Va Va Voom particularly makes you want to break into a jig.&nbsp;</p>

<strong>Do the newcomers deliver?</strong><br />
<br />
Yes and no. There has been a lot of curiosity around the newcomers in&nbsp;the film. The pressure is especially higher on Shah Rukh Khan's daughter Suhana Khan, Sridevi's daughter Khushi Kapoor and Amitabh Bachchan's grandson Agastya Nanda owing to their lineage. Among these three, its Suhana Khan who shines the brightest as self-assured and rich Veronica. Khan has a lot of screen presence and exudes confidence in every frame making her debut performance look quite effortless. Agastya Nanda shines in moments but seems uncomfortable in certain scenes- as in being very aware of the responsibility of leading the show. Khushi Kapoor is perhaps the weakest among the trio. She looks splendid in every frame but her performance lacks the spark that the original Betty Cooper has in the comics. Betty was vivacious and kind which Kapoor's character is unable to portray.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The other four young actors, on the other hand, shine in their respective roles. Perhaps the lack of a pressure of lineage does the trick for these stars. Dot as Ethel, Mihir Ahuja as Jughead Jones, Vedang Raina as Reggie, and Yuvraj Menda as Dilton deliver well to their parts. Ahuja who was previously seen in Made in Heaven 2, in particular, shines as the burger-loving Jughead. His scenes with Agastya are the high points of<em> The Archies. </em>The two boys compliment each other well. One as the confused in love and one as the bestie with the foresight.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Menda's Dilton is adorable and his way of saying 'Thank You' will soon become a catchphrase among the Gen Zs. The writers slightly twist the narrative for Dilton and it is lovely to see how well Menda and Ahuja execute it.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>Dollops of nostalgia</strong><br />
<br />
Akhtar creates a nostalgic, sweet world of the 1960s in<em> The Archies. </em>With dollops of rock and roll, she also tucks in message on politics and the environment in the sweet little film that gives a hat tip to several iconic musicians and pop culture of the 1950s and 1960s. PIts all there- Pop's Tates, the ice cream sundaes, Cheryl, Big Moose, and the Lodge Mansion which take you back to the comic book series that most have grown up reading. Akhtar also uses a credible supporting cast to back her narrative. Kamal Siddhu, Alyy Khan, Vinay Pathak, Tara Saluja, and Koel Purie play the parents to the teenagers and bring back dollops of 1990s nostalgia.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
<strong>The writing</strong><br />
<br />
While the film serves the purpose of being the perfect launch pad for the star kids, it is still one of the dullest Zoya Akhtar films. I have been a fan of the director right since her first film <em>Luck By Chance. </em>Akhtar has always managed to create a world that is flawed but endearing. One that stays with you much after the film is over. She is the maker who has made films like Gully Boy, Dil Dhadakne Do, Zindagi Milegi Na Dobara, and the brilliant series Made In Heaven. She has been accused by her critics for making films about the rich with her previous works and <em>The Archies </em>may just reiterate that fact. The anglicized world created by Akhtar may not connect with one and all. The characters speak anglicized Hindi and croon English songs in the realm of a Hindi film. At 2 hours 30 minutes, the film is also very long and meanders with the actual plot.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
<em>The Archies,</em> ultimately lacks the sharp storytelling that Akhtar's films are known for. Perhaps the film would have been able to achieve a lot more with stronger performers. As a result <em>The Archies </em>only shines because of certain actors, for creating a cute little world where one can sing and dance about how 'Everything is Politics', its beautiful sets, its great camera work, and outstanding music. But does it stay with you afterward? Not quite.</p>


One of the most gifted filmmakers of our times Zoya Akhtar steps out of her comfort zone in her latest The Archies. At the onset, The Archies looks like a teenage romance story - after all, it launches six new faces in the film industry- three of them are star kids and already have their separate fan base.

One of the most gifted filmmakers of our times Zoya Akhtar steps out of her comfort zone in her latest The Archies. At the onset, The Archies looks like a teenage romance story - after all, it launches six new faces in the film industry- three of them are star kids and already have their separate fan base. To be directed by one of the most prolific makers and be backed by one of the biggest OTT giants, Netflix, it does seem like a perfect launch pad for these young actors. The fact that The Archies is an Indian adaptation of the iconic Archie comic series just seems like a cherry on top. But can Akhtar be making a simple teeny bopper without an underlying message on the flawed society? Not quite. Does she succeed in delivering the message? Well, in parts. What is The Archies about? We have all read The Archies comics at some point in our life, haven't we? If not read the comic book, we are surely familiar with Archie, Veronica and Betty. Akhtar along with co-writers Reema Kagti and Ayesha Devitre Dhillon sets the story in the 1960s and brings the American town Riverdale to India and makes it a fictitious town in the hills of north India where mostly anglo-Indians live. Archie (Agastya Nanda), Veronica (Suhana Khan), Betty (Khushi Kapoor) and the gang are 17-year-old school goers who are living a rather cocooned life. Archie wants to study music in London and become the next Cliff Richards- he even has a band The Archies that croons at almost all events in the town. Archie also is a confused lad, in love with two girls, the super rich, suave Veronica and her bestie and Archie's neighbour, simpleton Betty. While the young boy pines for both the girls, Archies' best friend Jughead (Mihir Ahuja) thinks it's a bad idea. Amid love and career choices, Archie and his gang are suddenly made aware of the fact that their cute little Riverdale is going to get transformed all thanks to Mr Lodge, Veronica's dad who is planning to make a massive hotel at the heart of the town where at present Green park is situated. The park holds a lot of sentimental value for the people of the town and so the news is met with resistance from the young adults. But can Archie and the gang save their beloved Green Park? And who does Archie finally choose between Veronica and Betty forms the rest of the story. A musical Akhtar narrates the story of The Archies through music. The film has 16 songs and a lot of the characters' internal conflicts are narrated through songs. For that matter, some of the most important moments of the film are all narrated through some soulful and foot-tapping music. Musicals like these- which form an important part of the narrative- are common in Hollywood. In India, the genre has not been explored to its full potential. There have been a few films in recent years but none have been able to connect with the audience. The Archies, in that sense, take a big risk. Not only does it fall into the bracket of a musical, but it also has a lot of English songs- all based on the retro 1960s beats. Many in India would not be able to connect.

Can Netflix steal the gaming space?

<p>Netflix, in its infinite wisdom, has birthed <em>Squid Game: The Challenge</em>, a 10-episode reality series that appears to have arrived on the streaming scene like the awkward cousin at a family reunion who tries too hard to fit in. It comes across as a rushed and underwhelming affair, lacking the nuance, depth, and the thrills that made the original a global phenomenon.</p>

<p>The show, in its attempt to recreate the tense and life-or-death drama of Squid Game, falls short in several aspects. The meticulously replicated costumes, sets, and elimination process feel like a hasty carbon copy, lacking the genuine stakes that gave the original its edge. What was once a commentary on the dehumanisation of capitalism now feels like a surreal adult playdate, with contestants engaging in child's games without the palpable intensity or stakes.</p>

<p>Efforts to forge emotional connections with the players come off as forced and contrived. The backstories and tearful breakdowns, meant to elicit sympathy, instead feel like recycled soap opera tropes that add little to the authenticity of the show. It's as if the producers went down a checklist of emotional triggers without understanding the depth that made the original Squid Game so compelling.</p>

<p>The "tests" that contestants are subjected to raise ethical eyebrows. Rather than being insightful character assessments, they feel like poorly conceived psychological experiments gone awry.

<p>One notable flaw is the absence of a central narrative to anchor the viewer. Unlike the original, where characters faced impossible choices and moral dilemmas, <em>The Challenge</em> becomes a chaotic ensemble of forgettable faces. The audience is left struggling to find someone to genuinely root for.</p>

<p>Reports of off-camera mistreatment of players add a grim layer to the production. Allegations of "inhumane" conditions and rigged gameplay paint a troubling picture, raising concerns about the ethical practices of a show that attempts to, so to speak, capitalise on the anti-capitalist sentiments of its predecessor.</p>

<p><em>Squid Game: The Challenge</em> comes across as a half-baked imitation, lacking the substance and style that made Squid Game a cultural phenomenon.
