Jasmin Walia: I would love to act alongside Sidharth Malhotra

DURING British Indian singer Jasmin Walia's recent trip to India, Eastern Eye spoke to her about her new single Manana, her Bollywood track Bom Diggy Diggy, her future plans and a lot more.


Jasmin is very pretty and features in her music videos. So, we asked her if she would like to act in movies especially in Bollywood, to which she said, “I would love to. Obviously, every girl who is an Indian would love that and I would love too. Let’s see what the future holds, but I would definitely never say no.”

When asked her which actor she would like to work with and which actors she wants to playback for, Jasmin stated, “I would love to act alongside Sidharth Malhotra. Is that okay to say? (laughs). And of course everyone’s favourite Shah Rukh Khan. He singing to one of my songs, even if Zack (Knight) is doing playback for him and the girl would be Aishwarya Rai. Shah Rukh Khan and Aishwarya Rai, it would be great.”

“I would definitely love to try some acting. I love to take challenges. So, let’s see, fingers crossed,” Jasmin added.

This wasn’t Jasmin’s first visit to India, earlier also she has been to the country. When we asked her what she loves about India and what she hates, the singer said, “I love the hustle and bustle of India. When I go back I realise how slow everyone is. So, I just love that as you don’t know what to expect and I think that is a nice surprise. It always keeps you going and keeps you very excited. So, that’s what I love. And I hate the traffic.”

Chris Brown arrested in Manchester over alleged nightclub bottle attack on music producer

R&B star Chris Brown was taken into custody early Thursday morning in Manchester, England, over an alleged assault at a London nightclub in 2023. Police arrested the 36-year-old singer at The Lowry Hotel shortly after 2 a.m., charging him with causing grievous bodily harm to music producer Abe Diaw.

The incident dates back to 19 February 2023, when Brown reportedly attacked Diaw at Tape nightclub in Mayfair, central London. According to Diaw’s lawsuit filed last October, Brown struck him multiple times on the head with a bottle of Don Julio 1942 tequila. The assault allegedly continued with Brown stomping and kicking Diaw, leaving him unconscious for about 30 seconds and requiring hospitalisation for head wounds and torn ligaments in his leg.

Aamir Khan and Jr NTR ready to clash on screen? Two biopics on Dadasaheb Phalke in the making

The man who started it all, Dadasaheb Phalke, the pioneer of Indian cinema, is set to be immortalised on screen not once, but twice. In a surprising turn, two major biopics on the "Father of Indian Cinema" are in the works, with Bollywood and Tollywood’s biggest stars stepping into his shoes.

First, reports emerged that Jr NTR will portray Phalke in Made in India, a project backed by RRR director SS Rajamouli. The film, announced last year, will be a pan-India release diving into the birth of Indian cinema. Sources say NTR was instantly drawn to the script, fascinated by lesser-known aspects of Phalke’s journey. The actor, always known for his high-action roles, will take on a more subdued, dramatic part this time.

Scarlett Johansson slams Oscars for snubbing 'Avengers: Endgame' for Best Picture and calls out lengthy award shows

Scarlett Johansson has once again voiced her frustration over the Oscars overlooking Avengers: Endgame for the Best Picture category. The actress, known for portraying Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, expressed her disbelief during an interview. She questioned how a film as groundbreaking and successful as Endgame managed to receive only one nomination, for visual effects, at the 2020 Academy Awards.

“It was an impossible movie that shouldn’t have worked, yet it did, both as a film and as a cultural moment,” Johansson remarked. She pointed out that the film not only pushed creative boundaries but also became one of the highest-grossing movies of all time. Despite its global impact and critical acclaim, Endgame remained absent from major Oscar categories, including Best Picture.
