Billie Piper has opened up about a particularly uncomfortable moment from her time filming Secret Diary of a Call Girl, the ITV drama that stirred headlines when it first aired and is currently available to stream on Netflix until 29 May.

Vijay Deverakonda’s romantic image takes a turn as 'Kingdom' kicks off a power-packed May

May is shaping up to be a milestone month for Vijay Deverakonda, with a new film, fresh music, and a spotlight on the romantic roles that made him a star.

Deverakonda, who shot to national fame with Arjun Reddy, has long been associated with intense, emotionally complex romantic leads.

Maaran

Abhishek Jain's Maaran explores the dark realities of patriarchy through the gripping survival stories of two women

Abhishek Jain's 'Maaran' is a gripping Gujarati survival thriller that exposes the dark side of patriarchy and power

In Maaran, director Abhishek Jain trades urban comfort for unsettling discomfort, presenting a grim world where women’s bodies are battlegrounds and silence is often enforced by fear. Set in an isolated village, the film drags the viewer into a reality that is as disturbing as it is familiar.

At the heart of the film are two women: Birwa and Tara. Strangers at first, they are bound by the same invisible chains that pull countless women into cycles of exploitation. Birwa is a victim of human trafficking; Tara is on the brink of becoming one. Their stories run parallel, then collide, in ways that shake them and us to the core. The film’s narrative doesn’t offer dramatic rescues or grand revenge. Instead, it focuses on the internal shifts that happen when survival becomes a woman’s only compass.

"There are days my back gives up" – Deepika Padukone opens up about the physical toll of pregnancy

Ranveer Singh has opened up about wife Deepika Padukone’s challenging journey into motherhood, revealing that since the birth of their daughter Dua, Deepika has often neglected her own health, battling mood swings, back pain and emotional strain—as she devotes herself entirely to their newborn.

In a candid joint interview with Marie Claire, the couple discussed the life-changing transition into parenthood. Deepika shared that the experience has brought immense joy, but also physical and emotional challenges she hadn’t fully anticipated. “There are days when my back gives up, and the body feels like it’s not mine,” she admitted. “It’s a constant adjustment—not just physically, but emotionally as well.”

Netflix’s ‘The Royals’ wins praise for glamour and performances despite script flaws

Netflix’s latest Indian original, The Royals, delivers a glossy spectacle of aristocratic opulence, familial chaos and unexpected entrepreneurial rescue. Directed by Priyanka Ghose and Nupur Asthana and produced under the banner of Pritish Nandy Communications, the series is created by Rangita and Ishita Pritish Nandy, with writing by Neha Veena Sharma. While the series dazzles visually and offers moments of wit and warmth, it occasionally falters under the weight of its own grandeur and inconsistent script.

Set in the fictional princely state of Morpur, the series follows Aviraaj Singh (Ishaan Khatter), a new-age polo-playing prince who is more concerned with charm and leisure than tradition and responsibility. When his father, the Maharaja (played by Milind Soman), passes away, Aviraaj and his eccentric royal family discover they are drowning in debt. The family, long accustomed to showcasing heirloom jewels, fine wines and extravagant decor, must face the uncomfortable truth: the legacy of royalty does not guarantee financial stability.
