Bipasha Basu in talks to host Indian version of Man Enough

Last seen in horror drama Alone in 2015, Bipasha Basu is presently shooting for her comeback movie Aadat, which also stars her husband, Karan Singh Grover in the lead role. Helmed by filmmaker Bhushan Patel, the film is complete and is expected to hit theatres in the first half of 2019.

After Aadat, Bipasha might do a television show. Yes, you heard that right! Buzz has it that the Raaz (2002) actress has been approached to host the Indian version of the popular US TV chat show Man Enough.


“Given the surge in awareness around issues like sexual harassment, homophobia and body shaming, Bipasha feels this is the ideal time to adapt the show for the Indian audience. Staying true to the international format, the show will see Bollywood’s big names talk about manhood and social issues that aren’t usually discussed by men on public forums. Together, Bipasha and her guest will attempt to create awareness and sensitivity towards social evils,” a source close to the development reveals.

The untitled show is expected to hit the airwaves in the second half of 2019.

TroyBoi returns to his Indian roots with Rootz EP using Lata Mangeshkar’s voice to redefine British diaspora music

Highlights:

  • TroyBoi’s five-track EP Rootz is a personal return to the sounds of his childhood, released via Ultra Records in September 2025.
  • The single Kabhi uses an officially cleared sample of Lata Mangeshkar’s vocal from Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham.
  • Collaborations with Amrit Maan, Jazzy B and BombayMami plug Punjabi, Bhangra and south-Asian textures directly into modern trap and bass production.
  • This EP is part of a wider wave: British artists born into diasporas are using heritage not as garnish but as foundation.

Some albums hit you in ways you don’t see coming. Rootz is one of them. Not just another trap EP. TroyBoi, the London-born producer known for global bass and trap, has made something that’s also deeply personal. He didn’t just want to make music that bangs in clubs; instead, he wanted to reach back to the India of his childhood. And he did it with Rootz.

The track everyone’s talking about is Kabhi. Because it’s not just sampling Bollywood. Lata Mangeshkar’s voice was officially cleared for use on a non-Bollywood release, a milestone reported by multiple outlets. It’s history. It’s memory. And it’s a bridge.
