Kiara Advani to start filming her next with Ram Charan in November

Most recently seen in Shershaah (2021), Kiara Advani is currently one of the most sought-after actresses in Indian cinema. Apart from Bollywood, the actress is a popular name in Tollywood also where she has delivered such successful films as Bharat Ane Nenu (2018) and Vinaya Vidheya Rama (2019).

As you would remember, Advani recently joined the cast of filmmaker Shankar’s pan-India film, which co-stars Ram Charan. If fresh reports are to be believed, the actress will start filming for the untitled film in November, right after wrapping up Dharma Productions Jug Jugg Jeeyo with Varun Dhawan, Anil Kapoor, and Neetu Kapoor.


Talking about the same, a source close to the development informed a publication, “She started shooting (Jug Jugg Jeeyo) last week and this marathon schedule will go on till mid-November, before calling it a film wrap. The team will be shooting in Mumbai in this schedule.”

The actress will then jump straight into her trilingual film with Shankar. Interestingly, she also headlines the Hindi remake of Shankar’s Anniyan (2005) with Ranveer Singh. “Kiara jumps from the sets of Jug Jugg Jeeyo to Shankar’s ambitious political drama right from mid-November. Even this would be a marathon schedule and her character has some powerful traits acting as a catalyst in Ram Charan’s journey,” the source further added.

Advani will cap off 2021 with Sajid Nadiadwala’s upcoming production venture which also features Kartik Aaryan in the lead role. The film is expected to get off the ground by the end of the year.

Her other films in the pipeline include Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, Mr Lele, and Karram Kurram. While the actress has already wrapped up Mr Lele and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, Karram Khurram is yet to go on floors.

Maya Henry says Liam Payne shared private images of her without consent

Maya Henry has spoken out for the first time since the passing of her ex-fiancé, Liam Payne, revealing shocking details about their relationship. In an interview with Rolling Stone, the model accused the late singer of sharing private images of her without consent, a discovery she made after his death.

Liam, best known for his time in One Direction, died in October last year at the age of 31 after falling from a hotel balcony in Argentina. At the time, he was in a relationship with Kate Cassidy, but he had previously been engaged to Maya, with whom he had an on-and-off relationship from 2018 to 2022.

Maya described their time together as deeply troubled, citing Liam’s struggles with substance abuse as a major factor in their breakup. She explained that while she cared for him, his addiction issues made their relationship difficult and often unsafe. “On drugs, he became someone I didn’t recognise,” she revealed, adding that she had tried to support him but eventually realised she could not change him.

Chiranjeevi faces backlash over sexist comment about 'grandson and family legacy'

Megastar Chiranjeevi has found himself in hot water after making comments that many have labelled as sexist during a recent public appearance. Speaking at the pre-release event of Brahma Anandam, the actor expressed his desire for a grandson, sparking a wave of criticism online for what some called outdated and regressive views on gender.

Chiranjeevi joked that his home feels like a "ladies' hostel," with him playing the role of the warden, surrounded by granddaughters. He revealed that he often urges his son, actor Ram Charan, to have a boy to carry on the family legacy. "I keep telling Charan, at least this time, have a boy so our legacy continues," he said, adding, "I’m scared he might have another girl." Ram Charan and his wife, Upasana, welcomed their daughter, Klin Kaara, in June 2023.


The actor’s remarks didn’t sit well with many, who took to social media to call out the underlying gender bias. One user pointed out that such comments reflect a persistent societal mindset that prioritises male heirs over female children. "It’s disappointing to see someone of his stature perpetuate these outdated ideas," the user wrote. Another criticised Chiranjeevi for not using his influence to challenge stereotypes, saying, "Every child, regardless of gender, is a blessing and can carry forward a legacy."

2025 Oscars: Halle Berry, Scarlett Johansson, and A-List stars set to present

The Academy has unveiled a star-studded line-up of presenters for the 2025 Oscars, adding even more glamour to Hollywood’s biggest night. Joining the previously announced 2024 winners—Emma Stone, Cillian Murphy, Da’Vine Joy Randolph, and Robert Downey Jr.—are A-listers like Halle Berry, Scarlett Johansson, Penélope Cruz, Whoopi Goldberg, and Amy Poehler.

Comedian Conan O’Brien will host the event, marking his first time leading the prestigious awards show. The telecast is expected to acknowledge the impact of the devastating wildfires that hit Los Angeles earlier this year. O’Brien has stated that he wants the show to strike a balance between honouring Hollywood’s biggest achievements and recognising the challenges the city has faced.



A new twist on the Oscars' “Fab 5” format will also be introduced this year. Traditionally, past winners present acting awards while sharing personal tributes about the nominees. However, due to controversy surrounding one of this year’s nominees, the format has been adjusted to spotlight behind-the-scenes talent instead.

The new presenters include Elle Fanning, John Lithgow, June Squibb, and Bowen Yang, adding a mix of Hollywood veterans and fresh faces to the stage. While the specific categories they’ll present remain under wraps, tradition suggests last year’s Best Actor winner, Cillian Murphy, will hand out the Best Actress award, and Emma Stone will return the favour for Best Actor.

Rumours are swirling about a potential opening performance by Wicked stars Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, both nominated for their roles in the highly anticipated musical. While Grande remained coy about the possibility, fans are already buzzing with excitement.

The Oscars will air live on ABC and stream on Hulu, with a red-carpet pre-show kicking off at 6:30 p.m. ET. As the countdown begins, the Academy promises more surprises and announcements in the coming weeks.

With a mix of Hollywood royalty, heartfelt tributes, and a touch of Conan O’Brien’s signature humour, the 2025 Oscars are shaping up to be a night to remember.
