My Pod with RV Narang

NEWCASTLE-born RV Narang has released four singles and is currently working on his debut album My Way, which is due for release in summer 2018. He also has various other projects including collaborating with upcoming artists for release due early next year. The singer/songwriter selected 10 top songs he loves.

Zindagi Ye Safar Mein Hai by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan: I love this song because of the feelings and emotions Rahat Ji puts into it. The lyrics have a great meaning too. The song takes you on a unique musical journey and is one I definitely don’t get bored of.


Boli Poni by Soni Pabla (Desi Mix): This song is purely for the dance floor and sung exceptionally well. Soni is not around anymore, so that makes the song extra special. This game-changer gets the crowd pumped up for a good dance every time it drops.

Tum Bin Jaoon Kahan from Pyar Ka Mausam: One of my all time favourites by the legendary Mohd Rafi saab. There will never be another singer like Rafi. The remarkable thing about this melodious song is Kishore Kumar sang it too.

Payalay Chunmun from Virasat: Being a lover of 1990s Bollywood this is definitely a favourite. Kumar Sanu’s voice is like silk on this track and the music by Anu Malik is timeless. In fact, all the music in the movie was great and ahead of its time.

Wafawaan by Alex Koti: This song is simply my favourite of 2017. Alex Koti, the son of the legend Sabar Koti, had to deliver something special and truly does. I love the feeling the song gives you. The music on the track is outstanding.

De Deedar by Lakhwinder Wadali: A personal favourite of mine for the meaning behind it and the way it makes you feel. I was very fortunate to meet Lakhwinder Wadali and he is a very humble down-to-earth artist. I have liked all the albums he has done to date especially Unpredictable with Mukhtar Sahota.

Who Is It by Michael Jackson: One of my biggest inspirations in music. This song is the reason I fell in love with music. MJ’s vocals are unreal. The music even today sounds fresh and revolutionary.

Ishq by Stereo Nation: I have no words to explain what a great record this is. As a DJ, every time I play this track it gives the crowd a really happy upbeat aura. The production is tight, the vocals and lyrics are on point too.

Teriyan Akhiyan by RV Narang Ft. Mehi: I have chosen this song as it put me on the map. Whenever I listen to this song all the fond memories attached to it come flooding back. I planned the video carefully and am very proud of my achievements.

Dil De Varke by Kamal Khan: Picking one song to say that’s my favourite was hard, but I absolutely love this song. I could listen to it on repeat 24/7. The lyrics, composition and vocals are all on point. A complete masterpiece; a true gem.

Why Karan Johar thinks Suhana Khan and Aryan Khan are paving their own way in Bollywood

Karan Johar has known Shah Rukh Khan's children, Suhana and Aryan, for years, almost like family. But in a recent chat on Raj Shamani’s podcast, the filmmaker stripped away all the glam and sentimentality to talk plainly about their journeys in the film industry. “These two are not just star kids, they’re serious about their work,” he shared.

Starting with Suhana, Karan didn’t shy away from the criticism she received after The Archies. But he pointed out that her next film King, opposite her father Shah Rukh Khan, will be a real game-changer. “People will finally see her for who she is on screen,” he said, adding that she’s put in the hours, studied the craft, and is not relying on her last name. According to him, Suhana’s work speaks for itself. He’s seen her earlier performances and believes King will prove there’s a real actor in her, one with her own voice, not just a shadow of her father.

Liam Payne’s £24 million estate goes to son Bear as pop star dies without will

When Liam Payne died in October last year, the world mourned a pop icon. But behind the public grief lay private matters that are now slowly coming to light. The 31-year-old singer passed away in Buenos Aires after falling from a hotel balcony, a tragic end that left unanswered questions not just about his final hours, but about his legacy.

One of the more surprising revelations is that Liam didn’t leave a will. Despite having an estimated fortune of £28.6 million (30.1 crore), his estate was left unplanned. After covering debts and costs, £24.3 million (25.6 crore) remains. With no legal document to guide its distribution, the court granted power of administration to his ex-partner Cheryl Tweedy, the mother of his eight-year-old son, Bear.

Diljit Dosanjh wears 130 carat emerald necklace at Met Gala inspired by the lost £20 million Patiala jewel

When Diljit Dosanjh stepped onto the Met Gala red carpet this year, he didn’t just show up in a designer outfit but walked in carrying history. Dressed in an all-white ensemble with a turban, a kirpan and a spectacular necklace layered with emeralds and diamonds, Dosanjh paid tribute to Maharaja Bhupinder Singh of Patiala, a name long associated with grandeur and timeless elegance.

The necklace was made in Jaipur by Golecha Jewels, who spent nearly four months crafting the piece. It wasn’t a copy of the original Patiala necklace, which vanished decades ago, but a fresh creation inspired by archival images and Dosanjh’s personality. It featured over 2,500 stones, with the emerald centrepiece weighing close to 130 carats, according to jeweller Manav Golecha.

Charli XCX to star in and produce new horror film by 'Audition' director Takashi Miike

Charli XCX is shifting gears once again, but this time into the twisted world of cult Japanese filmmaker Takashi Miike. The British pop star will both star in and produce Miike’s upcoming feature, her second project under her newly launched production company, Studio365.

Known for pushing limits in cinema, Miike has built a reputation over the last three decades for his dark, genre-bending films like Audition (1999) and Ichi the Killer (2001). While the title and plot of this new collaboration haven’t been made public, Miike’s signature style mix of horror and shock suggests audiences should expect something intense. The script is being written by Ross Evans, with Yumiko Aoyagi co-writing. Evans is also behind How to Save a Marriage, which is in development with Robert Pattinson as producer.

Geraldine Viswanathan steals the spotlight in Marvel’s 'Thunderbolts' after Ayo Edebiri's exit

Geraldine Viswanathan’s path to Thunderbolts didn’t start with a blockbuster audition or a lifelong dream to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It began with oddball comedy gigs, local theatre, and stand-up sets at uni bars. From small parts in quirky Australian productions to sharing the screen with John Cena in Blockers, Viswanathan quietly built her Hollywood résumé until Marvel called.

When the offer for Thunderbolts came, she wasn’t gunning for the spotlight. In fact, she got the call while sick in bed. Director Jake Schreier pitched her the role of Mel, a sharp, loyal assistant to Julia Louis-Dreyfus’s scheming Valentina Fontaine. It was a role vacated by Ayo Edebiri, and Viswanathan stepped in with zero superhero baggage.
