0

Celina Jaitly is currently in the news because of her ongoing divorce case with her Austrian husband Peter Haag. On Mother’s Day, the actress shared an emotional post on social media and revealed that she has still not been able to meet or speak to her children despite a court order related to custody and communication.

Sharing an old picture with her sons on Instagram, Celina wrote, “I want to wake from this nightmare… back into my world again…. In a valley of dandelions, where it is just me… & the three hearts that were made from my blood and still beat within mine…..”

She further explained the situation by writing, “This is a picture from last year. My sons have been moved to an undisclosed location. I send them letter-like messages every day, but I have been blocked on WhatsApp and phone calls.”

The actress also accused her husband of keeping the children away from her even after legal directions were given in court. Speaking about the issue, Celina wrote, “Despite an undertaking in front of the honourable court in Austria, the Austrian laws are being manipulated by my husband to stop my children from having any contact with me.”

In the same post, she also spoke about the emotional impact the situation has had on her relationship with her children. She said, “There has been repeated interference with my children’s access to me, including exposure to selective media narratives, resulting in obstruction of regular parent-child communication, as well as brainwashing & intimidation to compel them to say things against me, a mother who has done nothing but care for them since the day they were born, moving from one country to another to support the career of their father.”

For those unaware, Celina Jaitly married Peter Haag on August 23, 2011. The couple has three sons. In November 2025, the actress filed a legal case against him and accused him of domestic violence, cruelty, and manipulation. She also sought ₹50 crore and other compensation in the matter. The case is currently being heard in court.

Celina Jaitly has been away from films for more than a decade. She was last seen in a lead role in the 2011 romantic comedy Thank You.

Karuppu Trailer Shows Suriya as a Deity Who Fights for Justice

0

The trailer of Karuppu, starring Suriya and Trisha Krishnan, has been released ahead of the film’s theatrical release on May 14, 2026. Directed by RJ Balaji, the movie is described as a fantasy action drama that focuses on justice and the struggles faced by ordinary people.

The 2 minute and 45 second trailer introduces a world where corrupt lawyers misuse power and trouble poor and helpless people. As fear and injustice spread, the story raises a question about who will step forward to protect them. The answer comes in the form of Karuppusamy, a deity believed to deliver justice, who takes human form to help and protect the people.

Suriya plays the lead role of Karuppu, while Trisha Krishnan appears as the female lead. Her dialogues in the film are dubbed by Chinmayi. RJ Balaji also plays an important role in the film as Baby Kannan, the main antagonist. Even though some portions of the trailer editing appear uneven, the overall flow remains steady and gives a clear idea about the film’s story, action, emotional moments, and commercial elements.

The supporting cast includes Indrans, Natty Subramaniam, Swasika, Sshivada and Anagha Maaya Ravi in key roles. The music and background score are composed by Sai Abhyankkar, while cinematographer GK Vishnu has handled the visuals.

After Karuppu, Suriya is expected to appear in Vishwanath and Sons, directed by Venky Atluri. The film is said to be an emotional romantic drama featuring Mamitha Baiju as the female lead and Raveena Tandon in an important role. Reports suggest that the movie, which was earlier planned for a July 2026 release, may now arrive during the Independence Day week, although an official release date has not yet been announced.

The actor has also started work on a cop action comedy tentatively titled Suriya47. The film is directed by Jithu Madhavan and stars Nazriya Nazim as the female lead, with Naslen playing a key role. Reports also suggest that a leading Tamil actor could make a cameo appearance in the film, which may lead to a second instalment in the future, though there has been no official confirmation so far.

Pete Davidson Revives Kanye West Feud With Brutal ‘Gay Nazi’ Joke During Kevin Hart Roast

0

Pete Davidson just reopened one of pop culture’s messiest celebrity feuds, and he did it with one brutal joke. While appearing at Kevin Hart’s celebrity roast at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, the comedian took several shots at public figures throughout the night, but it was his Kanye West jab that instantly grabbed attention online.

“I was in a beef with Kanye, so I’ve taken shots from better gay Nazis,” Pete joked on stage, immediately sending social media into chaos.

The comment appeared to reference Kanye’s years-long history of antisemitic controversies and public admiration for Adolf Hitler and Nazi imagery, which sparked massive backlash beginning in 2022.

Although Kanye has recently attempted to walk back some of those remarks, even reportedly issuing a public apology through a Wall Street Journal ad, Pete clearly was not interested in letting the past stay buried.

And honestly, considering everything that happened between them, the tension was probably never fully gone.

The feud between Pete and Kanye exploded years ago when Pete briefly dated Kim Kardashian following her split from Ye. At the time, Kanye repeatedly mocked Pete online, publicly calling him “Skete” and even posting disturbing imagery and music videos that appeared to depict violence against him.

The situation became one of the most talked-about celebrity dramas of the decade, with fans closely watching every social media post, diss, and interview tied to the fallout.

Now, Pete seems more than comfortable turning that history into stand-up material.

What also confused people online was Pete’s “gay Nazi” phrasing, especially since Kanye is currently married to Bianca Censori. Still, many viewers interpreted the joke less as commentary on Kanye’s sexuality and more as Pete mocking the rapper’s bizarre public persona and extremist controversies.

The roast itself was already packed with controversial jokes aimed at celebrities including Lizzo, Tony Hinchcliffe, and the late Charlie Kirk, but Pete’s Kanye line quickly became one of the night’s most viral moments.

Social media reactions have been extremely divided.

Some people praised Pete for mocking Kanye after years of harassment and antisemitic rhetoric, while others accused him of unnecessarily reigniting old drama for attention.

As of now, Kanye has not publicly responded to the joke, but given his history online, fans already expect some kind of reaction sooner rather than later.

The Boys’ Creator Reacts After Fans Notice Show Predicted Trump’s Gold Statue Controversy

0

The Boys creator Eric Kripke is once again reacting to fans accusing the hit Prime Video series of somehow predicting real-world events. This time, the conversation exploded online after Donald Trump unveiled a massive golden statue of himself at Trump National Doral Miami, just weeks after The Boys featured an eerily similar golden Homelander statue in season 5. Kripke himself appeared genuinely stunned by the comparison.

Posting on social media, the showrunner shared side-by-side images of Trump’s statue and Homelander’s towering golden monument from the show alongside the caption: “Seriously what the f—?”

The internet immediately ran with it.

In The Boys season 5, Homelander’s statue is introduced as part of his growing messiah complex after the character begins openly positioning himself as a godlike figure deserving worship and absolute loyalty.

The imagery already sparked intense discussion among viewers when the episode aired, especially because the season also explores the rise of nationalist religious movements and political propaganda built around Homelander’s public image.

Then reality stepped in.

Trump’s newly unveiled statue, reportedly titled “Don Colossus,” stands roughly 15 feet tall and was commissioned by a cryptocurrency group supporting the president. The gold-covered structure quickly became a viral topic online, with critics and supporters debating whether the display crossed into idol worship territory.

The controversy intensified after a prayer dedication ceremony was reportedly held around the statue, leading many people online to compare it to the biblical story of the golden calf.

That overlap is exactly why fans believe The Boys once again predicted the political and cultural climate almost perfectly.

And honestly, this is far from the first time the series has mirrored real-life events in uncomfortable ways.

Season 5 has already generated conversation for storylines involving media manipulation, political extremism, celebrity worship, and even AI-generated religious imagery that viewers compared to recent online controversies surrounding Trump and “AI Jesus” posts.

The show also features a subplot where government pressure threatens broadcast licenses for networks that oppose Homelander’s ideology, something many fans connected to recent political attacks against major media companies and late-night hosts.

What makes The Boys stand out is that it rarely feels subtle anymore.

The series has fully leaned into political satire over the last few seasons, with Homelander increasingly portrayed less like a traditional supervillain and more like a terrifying blend of celebrity culture, authoritarian politics, nationalism, and internet-fueled fandom.

And while some viewers accuse the show of being too on-the-nose, moments like this keep fueling the perception that The Boys somehow keeps predicting reality before it happens.

At this point, even Kripke himself seems disturbed by how accurate the parallels have become.

‘Star Wars: Return of the Jedi’ Actor Michael Pennington Dies at 82

0

Veteran British actor Michael Pennington, best known to many Star Wars fans as Moff Jerjerrod in Return of the Jedi, has died at the age of 82. Pennington reportedly passed away this week, with tributes pouring in from theatre lovers, film fans, and members of the British acting community remembering him as one of the most respected Shakespearean performers of his generation. While mainstream audiences may recognize him from Star Wars: Episode VI – Return of the Jedi, where he played the Imperial officer overseeing construction of the second Death Star, Pennington’s career stretched far beyond blockbuster cinema.

For decades, he was considered one of the great classical stage actors in Britain, particularly celebrated for his work with the Royal Shakespeare Company.

In fact, Pennington once famously turned down a major Hollywood opportunity opposite Meryl Streep in The French Lieutenant’s Woman because he chose to perform Hamlet on stage instead.

At the time, he reportedly described Hamlet as “one of the prizes” an actor could ever hope to play.

The role eventually went to Jeremy Irons, while Pennington continued building a legendary theatre career rooted in Shakespearean drama.

Outside the stage, Pennington also appeared in projects including The Iron Lady, Hamlet (1969), Endeavour, Father Brown, Silent Witness, and Raised by Wolves.

He even portrayed Sherlock Holmes in the 1987 television film The Return of Sherlock Holmes, further proving the range and depth he brought to period and literary adaptations throughout his career. Born in Cambridge in 1943, Pennington reportedly discovered his love for acting after watching acclaimed performer Paul Rogers play Hamlet during his childhood.

That inspiration eventually shaped a decades-long career that blended theatre prestige with memorable film and television appearances.

Although his role in Star Wars was relatively brief, fans of the franchise have continued to celebrate his performance over the years, especially as Moff Jerjerrod became a recognizable figure within the larger Imperial storyline.

Following news of his death, many fans online shared clips and images from Return of the Jedi, while theatre communities remembered him for his extraordinary command of Shakespeare and dedication to classical performance. Michael Pennington leaves behind a career that balanced blockbuster fandom with serious theatrical legacy, something very few actors ever truly manage to achieve.

‘Euphoria’ Season 3 Episode 5 Ends With Rue’s Life Hanging by a Thread

0

Euphoria season 3 episode 5, titled This Little Piggy, delivered exactly what fans have come to expect from the HBO drama: complete emotional chaos, shocking betrayals, and messy relationships spiraling out of control. One of the biggest surprises in the episode was seeing Maddie slowly grow closer to Rue. At this point, Maddie calling Rue someone close to her honestly feels huge considering how disconnected the characters used to be in earlier seasons. Their dynamic has become one of the most unexpectedly emotional parts of season 3.

Meanwhile, Cassie continues proving that she has learned absolutely nothing.

The episode reveals that Cassie has been secretly making money online through bizarre adult content, including selling dirty underwear and other explicit requests. On top of that, she has reportedly been wiring Nate large amounts of money whenever she can, sometimes as much as $35,000 at a time.

Even after everything that happened between them, Cassie still seems emotionally tied to Nate in the most destructive way possible. At one point, it looked like Cassie was finally ready to leave Maddie behind for good. But Maddie somehow manages to convince her to stay, even legally binding her with a contract to keep things under control.

Still, in one of the episode’s most frustrating moments, Cassie auditions behind Lexi’s back and then comes the line that instantly reminded fans of season 1.

“In a good way or a bad way?”

The callback was intentional, and honestly kind of haunting.

Because that line perfectly sums up Cassie’s entire existence on the show. She always gets attention. She always becomes the center of the conversation. But it almost always comes at somebody else’s expense.

And once again, that somebody is Lexi.

While Cassie may have impressed the people in charge and even secured the role she wanted, the fallout lands directly on her sister. At Lexi’s workplace, people are openly mocking her because of Cassie’s behavior, her reputation, and the overall chaos surrounding the audition process.

Instead of Lexi being recognized for her professionalism and hard work, she becomes “the girl with the insane sister.”

That’s what makes the situation so painful.

Lexi spent years quietly building herself up, trying to separate her identity from Cassie’s drama. She worked for her opportunities, stayed disciplined, and actually tried to create something meaningful for herself. But the second Cassie enters the picture, all the attention shifts back to scandal and spectacle.

There’s also another callback involving the famous “you’re the most narcissistic person I have ever met” line. This time, instead of Maddie saying it, Lexi delivers it straight to Cassie’s face.

And honestly, after three seasons, it feels like the show is making one thing very clear: Cassie is never going to change. No matter how many chances she gets, she continues hurting the people around her while refusing to take accountability for any of it. That cycle has basically become her entire character arc.

The episode ends with one massive cliffhanger involving Rue.

There are growing suspicions that Rue may have been exposed as a mole by her dangerous new boss, leaving fans wondering whether she’ll even survive the fallout. The final moments heavily imply that Rue’s life could now be in serious danger.

There’s also another interesting parallel introduced toward the end of the episode. Maddie finally comes face-to-face with Rue’s boss and is unexpectedly pulled into his world, agreeing to manage two girls from his strip club operation.

One of those girls also happens to be the same person who previously snitched on Rue, setting up even more tension heading into the next episode.

With betrayals escalating, relationships collapsing, and Rue potentially running out of time, Euphoria season 3 is somehow getting even darker than before.

Is Jules the Real Villain of ‘Euphoria’ Season 3? Fans Are Already Turning Against Her 

0

After the Euphoria season, a lot of fans are starting to ask the same question: is Jules actually the real villain of this season? For years, Cassie has been treated as the chaotic center of destruction in the show. And yes, she’s still messy, impulsive, and constantly hurting people around her. But season 3 has complicated things. Weirdly enough, Cassie at least seems to be surviving in the only way she knows how.

She’s financially supporting herself and Nate, even if the methods are completely unhinged. Her online content career has spiraled into increasingly bizarre territory, but she’s still actively trying to keep their lives afloat while Nate continues being emotionally useless and financially unstable.

Jules, on the other hand, feels different this season.

A lot of viewers feel like season 3 has exposed how selfish and emotionally destructive Jules can be, especially toward the people who genuinely try to help her.

One of the biggest examples came through Lexi. Lexi literally handed Jules an opportunity she did not have to offer her. At a point where Jules had dropped out of art school and seemed directionless, Lexi trusted her professionally and gave her real creative work. Instead of respecting that opportunity, Jules nearly destroyed it.

Rather than delivering something safe for the production, Jules submitted explicit artwork filled with penis imagery that immediately caused problems for Lexi at work. And instead of helping resolve the situation after Lexi got reprimanded, Jules simply walked away from the mess she created.

That moment felt like a turning point for a lot of fans.

It reinforced one of the biggest criticisms surrounding Jules since season 1: she constantly creates emotional and personal chaos for other people, then disappears before facing the consequences.

Her dynamic with Rue has become even more frustrating this season.

Episode 5 heavily hints that Jules still wants emotional control over Rue without fully committing to her. During their tense penthouse conversation, Jules gives Rue mixed signals, practically inviting intimacy while still keeping her emotionally unstable. 

At the same time, the show also makes it obvious that Jules is jealous of Angel and Rue’s past relationship. Rue talks about Angel with a level of passion and emotional honesty that visibly affects Jules. 

Then comes the brutal reality check involving Jules’ sugar daddy, Ellis.

For maybe the first time this season, somebody directly confronts Jules about her behavior. Ellis tells her very clearly that while he likes her, he loves his family more, and he refuses to risk his marriage or health while she continues sleeping with other people in his apartment. You can literally see Jules realizing that she has built her entire life around attention, desire, and emotional validation from other people without creating anything stable for herself.

That’s what makes her arc this season feel so dark.

Cassie is destructive, but Cassie is openly chaotic. Jules operates differently. She presents herself as emotionally intelligent and self-aware while repeatedly damaging the lives of people who care about her. Even her career storyline reflects that emptiness. She left art school, abandoned structure, and when a genuine opportunity finally came her way through Lexi, she sabotaged it almost immediately.

Season 3 also keeps circling back to an uncomfortable question about Jules and Rue: does Jules actually love Rue, or does she just need Rue to want her?

That tension has quietly become one of the most important parts of the season.

And while Cassie may still be the loudest disaster in Euphoria, episode 5 makes a very strong argument that Jules is the one causing the deepest emotional damage.

Raja Shivaji Nears Historic Rs. 100 Crore Mark After Strong Second Sunday

Riteish Deshmukh’s Raja Shivaji continued its steady performance at the Indian box office during its second weekend. The film collected around Rs. 8 crore on its second Sunday, showing a strong 20 per cent jump compared to Saturday. The drop from the first Sunday was also controlled at around 45 per cent, which is considered a healthy trend for a film entering its second week.

The film earned close to Rs. 19 crore during its second weekend. With this, the total box office collection of Raja Shivaji now stands at approximately Rs. 80.25 crore across India. Out of this, the Marathi version has contributed around Rs. 56.25 crore, while the Hindi dubbed version has added nearly Rs. 24 crore gross, including around Rs. 20 crore nett.

The film is now moving towards the important Rs. 100 crore mark and is expected to achieve it sometime during the third week. If it reaches the milestone, Raja Shivaji will become the first Marathi film to touch Rs. 100 crore at the Indian box office. The current top Marathi grossers are Sairat and Baipan Bhari Deva, both of which earned close to Rs. 90 crore.

Unlike those films, Raja Shivaji has also benefited from its Hindi dubbed release and has managed to attract audiences outside Maharashtra. Because of this, the film has seen a wider reach compared to many Marathi releases in the past.

At the same time, there was also hope that Raja Shivaji could aim for even bigger numbers. Films like Tanhaji and Chhaava, which were also based on figures connected to the Maratha Empire, collected much higher numbers in Maharashtra. Tanhaji earned around Rs. 175 crore in Maharashtra in 2020, which would be more than Rs. 250 crore today after inflation adjustment. Chhaava later crossed Rs. 300 crore. While Raja Shivaji has performed well, it is currently not expected to reach the same level as those films.

The Box Office Collections for Raja Shivaji in India are as follows:

Friday: Rs. 13.25 cr.
Saturday: Rs. 12.25 cr.
Sunday: Rs. 14.75 cr.
Monday: Rs. 6.50 cr.
Tuesday: Rs. 5.50 cr.
Wednesday: Rs. 5.00 cr.
Thursday: Rs. 4.25 cr.

2nd Friday: Rs. 4.00 cr.
2nd Saturday: Rs. 6.75 cr.
2nd Sunday: Rs. 8.00 cr.

Total: Rs. 80.25 cr.

Akshay Kumar’s Bhooth Bangla Crosses Rs. 151 Crore After Strong Fourth Weekend Run

Akshay Kumar’s Bhooth Bangla continued its steady run at the Indian box office and added Rs. 8 crore during its fourth weekend. The film earned Rs. 3.85 crore on Sunday alone, helping it maintain momentum even in its fourth week in theatres. The movie recorded a 45 per cent drop compared to the previous weekend, which is considered a stable hold for a film that has already completed almost a month at the box office.

Directed by Priyadarshan, the horror comedy drama has now reached a total collection of Rs. 151 crore nett in India. The film had started strongly and managed to stay consistent over the weeks with support from family audiences and fans of comedy entertainers.

The fourth weekend collections came after the film earned Rs. 80.50 crore in its first week, followed by Rs. 41.50 crore in the second week and Rs. 21.00 crore in the third week. In the fourth weekend, the movie collected Rs. 1.40 crore on Friday, Rs. 2.75 crore on Saturday and an estimated Rs. 3.85 crore on Sunday.

Trade trends suggest that the film still has some audience pull left, although the arrival of Pati Patni Aure Woh Do next weekend may slow down its performance. Based on its current pace, Bhooth Bangla is expected to finish its theatrical run at around Rs. 160 crore nett in India.

For Akshay Kumar, the film comes as an important success after a difficult period at the box office following the pandemic. While some of his releases last year performed decently, none managed to emerge as a clear HIT. Bhooth Bangla has now given the actor a much needed commercial success.

The performance of stars like Akshay Kumar remains important for the Hindi film industry because regular releases help theatres maintain audience flow throughout the year. Unlike several actors who take long gaps between projects, Akshay Kumar continues to maintain a high release frequency, something that has traditionally helped the box office business. Along with Ajay Devgn, he remains among the few leading stars consistently bringing multiple films to theatres regularly.

Bhumi Pednekar To Play Lawyer Again In Emotional Father Daughter Courtroom Film

0

Bhumi Pednekar is ready to begin a new phase in her acting career with a courtroom drama after taking a long break from public life and films. Last year, the actor spoke openly about stepping away from acting for nearly nine months after facing heavy trolling online following The Royals. During that time, she stayed away from movies, award functions, fashion events and even returned signing amounts for projects she did not want to continue. The break helped her focus on herself and rethink the kind of work she wanted to do in the future.

    Now, Bhumi has reportedly signed a new film where she will play the role of a lawyer. Interestingly, she had earlier played a lawyer in the film Bala, which also focused on social issues and beauty standards. According to reports, this upcoming untitled film is a courtroom drama and will be shot mainly in Himachal Pradesh.

    To prepare for the role, Bhumi is said to have taken guidance from her sister Samiksha Pednekar, who is a lawyer in real life. The story is expected to focus on a father daughter relationship, with many important scenes taking place inside a courtroom. A veteran actor will reportedly play Bhumi’s father, who is also shown as a lawyer in the film.

    The movie will be directed by Arif Sheikh, known for editing films like Pathaan, War and Fighter. This will be his second film as a director after Let’s Dance. Bhumi was last seen in Mere Husband Ki Biwi.
