Sara Ali Khan to pair opposite Kartik Aaryan

A couple of weeks ago, we had reported that newcomer Sara Ali Khan, who is set to make her Bollywood debut with Abhishek Kapoor’s Kedarnath, was being considered by filmmaker Imtiaz Ali for his next project. The latest we hear that the actress has given her nod to play the female lead in the untitled movie.

Before finalizing Sara Ali Khan for his upcoming directorial venture, Imtiaz Ali had already locked Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety (2018) actor Kartik Aaryan to play the male lead. The audience is excited to see this fresh pairing on celluloid.


“It is incredible that an actor is not just being approached for many films before her debut, but is also gutsy enough to sign on fresh films before her release. Normally, actors, especially the star kids, wait till the release of their debut film to see the response so that they can position their career graph and also work on the monies that they will get in the future. Sara, on the contrary, seems to be following her instinct on signing film projects,” says a trade source.

Sara Ali Khan’s debut vehicle Kedarnath is set to hit screens on 7th December. Her second venture Simmba, co-starring Ranveer Singh, releases two weeks after the release of Kedarnath, on 28th December.

It looks like Sara is indeed on a roll!

What Britain’s ban on strangulation porn really means and why campaigners say it could backfire

Highlights:

  • Government to criminalise porn that shows strangulation or suffocation during sex.
  • Part of wider plan to fight violence against women and online harm.
  • Tech firms will be forced to block such content or face heavy Ofcom fines.
  • Experts say the ban responds to medical evidence and years of campaigning.

You see it everywhere now. In mainstream pornography, a man’s hands around a woman’s neck. It has become so common that for many, especially the young, it just seems like part of sex, a normal step. The UK government has decided it should not be, and soon, it will be a crime.

The plan is to make possessing or distributing pornographic material that shows sexual strangulation, often called ‘choking’, illegal. This is a specific amendment to the Crime and Policing Bill. Ministers are acting on the back of a stark, independent review. That report found this kind of violence is not just available online, but it is rampant. It has quietly, steadily, become normalised.
