Tamannaah Bhatia has always dazzled audiences with her screen presence, but 2025 is shaping up to be her most daring year yet. The actress isn’t just signing films, she’s breaking genre barriers and reinventing herself like never before. From ancient myths to deep forests, here's a sneak peek into five exciting new genres Tamannaah is exploring next:

The Jungle Thriller — Into the WildwithRanger
Tamannaah pairs up with Ajay Devgn in Ranger, an adrenaline-charged jungle adventure. Expect wild terrains, survival instincts, and a never-seen-before action-packed side of her. Nature’s unpredictability meets human courage—and Tamannaah’s right at the centre of it.
Mythological Drama — Diving Deep into Legends inVvan
In Vvan, starring alongside Sidharth Malhotra, Tamannaah steps into the mytho-drama genre. This isn’t your typical period piece—think larger-than-life folklore, ancient scripts, and spiritual symbolism. It’s a genre steeped in cultural richness, and she’s set to embody it with power and grace.
Slapstick Comedy — Bringing the Chaos inNo Entry 2
Sharing screen space with Varun Dhawan and Diljit Dosanjh, Tamannaah unleashes her comic timing in the sequel to the madcap hit No Entry. From misunderstandings to misadventures, she adds sparkle to the comedy chaos. Laughter, guaranteed.
Slick Action Drama — High Stakes in Her Film with John Abraham
While the title is still under wraps, Tamannaah’s film with John Abraham promises gritty action, stylish sequences, and possibly a femme-fatale transformation. It’s rumoured to be high on drama, layered characters, and razor-sharp tension.
Musical Sensation — Turning Every Beat into a Viral Moment
She’s not just acting, she’s owning the music scene. Her viral dance tracks Aaj Ki Raat (Stree 2) and Nasha (Raid 2) prove she’s the queen of high-voltage musical performances. These aren't just item numbers, they're cultural moments.

From the forest to folklore, and laughs to lethal action, Tamannaah Bhatia is rewriting her cinematic identity one genre at a time. 2025 might just be her boldest year yet.
After years of buzz, The Devil Wears Prada sequel has locked in a release date: 1 May 2026. Yes, 20 years after the original hit cinemas, we’re heading back into the high-stakes world of fashion and media.
The original 2006 film, based on Lauren Weisberger’s novel, followed fresh graduate Andy Sachs, played by Anne Hathaway, as she entered the intimidating orbit of Miranda Priestly, played by the iconic Meryl Streep, editor of Runway magazine. Alongside them were Emily Blunt as the overworked assistant and Stanley Tucci as the stylish insider who helped Andy find her footing.
While no cast has been officially confirmed for the sequel, all signs point to the possible return of Streep and Blunt. Early plot details suggest the story picks up in a very different media climate. Miranda is still holding the reins at Runway, but the print industry is crumbling, and she finds herself needing ad revenue from a luxury conglomerate, one now led by her former assistant, Emily. A face-off between mentor and protégé? That’s the rumour.
The script is reportedly being penned by Aline Brosh McKenna, who adapted the original film. David Frankel, who directed the first movie, and producer Wendy Finerman are also in discussions to return.
As for Anne Hathaway, she’s been cautious when asked about reprising her role, hinting that fans shouldn’t get their hopes up too high. Stanley Tucci, on the other hand, seems more optimistic, calling the original one of the best experiences of his career and saying he’d be thrilled to return.
Emily Blunt gave the clearest signal at a film festival last December, confirming “rumblings” and saying the cast would love to reunite.
The release announcement came as part of Disney’s updated film calendar, which also included a major reshuffle of its Marvel slate. The sequel takes the date originally held by Avengers: Doomsday, now pushed to December 2026.
So, while we wait for casting confirmations, one thing is certain: The Devil Wears Prada is returning to the runway, and this time, the stakes are even higher.
Bella Ramsey isn’t new to the screen. From stealing scenes in Game of Thrones as Lyanna Mormont to leading The Last of Us as Ellie, the 21-year-old has already built an impressive career. She’s earned critical praise, award nominations, and the approval of top directors. Yet, none of that has shielded her from becoming a frequent punching bag for internet trolls.
What started as excitement over her casting in The Last of Us quickly turned into online abuse, targeting not just her performance, but her looks, identity, and the fact that she plays a lesbian character. The attacks aren’t random. Many of them come from echo chambers on Reddit, Instagram, and X, where far-right ideologies and toxic masculinity thrive. These groups often rage against anything that doesn’t fit their narrow image of “mainstream.”

Photoshopped memes, brutal insults, and outright cruelty follow her every move. Some trolls argue she was “miscast,” not based on talent, but on appearance. Others call her “woke,” a term often weaponised to dismiss inclusion and diversity. Suggestions to replace her with actresses deemed “prettier” are common and absolutely dehumanising.
But the hate goes deeper. Ramsey is non-binary and has spoken openly about mental health, anorexia, and autism. For many, this makes her a target in a media space that still punishes anyone who challenges norms. She’s not the first. Actresses like Rachel Zegler, Halle Bailey, and Morfydd Clark have faced similar firestorms for daring to lead stories that don’t fit certain people’s expectations.
What the hate against Bella Ramsey really says about usGetty Images
For Ramsey, the constant negativity became too much. She quit social media not out of drama, but because it wasn’t worth the toll. She no longer wants to scroll through threads trying to defend her right to exist as she is. “I just got sick of it,” she said. And who wouldn’t?
Behind the scenes, her talent is undeniable. Game of Thrones veterans praise her professionalism and instinct. The Last of Us creators chose her from over 100 actors because she was Ellie: all smart, vulnerable, funny, and fierce. That’s what matters.

But in today’s online world, success isn’t always protection. For some, Ramsey represents change, and that alone is enough to set off alarms in the loudest corners of the internet.
And yet, she endures. Quietly. Powerfully. As herself.

‘Guardians’ is developed by United for Wildlife founded by William and his charitable foundation
The new six-part series, ‘Guardians’, featuring Britain’s Prince William throws light upon the dangerous work of wildlife rangers. William who is associated to the documentary, has already made the ranger’s efforts one of the important causes of his campaign. ‘Guardians’ will be broadcasted from Friday on BBC Earth’s YouTube and social media channels
The show is William’s brainchild, aimed to emphasise the perilous work done by the rangers. It explains the threatened environments the rangers are exposed to, in order to protect the wildlife.
The documentary will have immersive footages of six major areas – Central African Republic, the Himalayas, Mexico’s Sea of Cortez, Kruger national park in South Africa, Sri Lanka and Caru Indigenous Land in Brazil. Each episode will be of a new story, six to ten minute long.
The Central African Republic episode will cover the story of a reformed poacher who now, dedicates his life for wildlife protection.
The Himalayan episode will show the efforts of rangers for the coexistence of snow leopards and local communities.
The episode about Mexico’s Sea of Cortez features what was once called “the world’s aquarium.” It tells the story a reformed illegal fisherman who now protects the disturbed ecosystem.
The Kruger National Park episode explains about the groups of people who toils to protect and rescue endangered rhinos, facing poaching threats.
Sri Lankan episode will deal about hardworking veterinary experts who works to rehabilitate elephants, leopards and other animals at risk.
Caru Indigenous Land episode will explore the community-led fight to prevent the illegal wildlife crimes.
"The reality is that protecting our natural world has become one of the most dangerous jobs on the planet. We need to understand and recognise nature’s Guardians, and the critical work they do," William said.
The rangers are frontline fighters who take massive risks for sustainable human-animal coexistence and prevention of habitat loss. They work amidst poachers and endangered species for wildlife protection, William added.
‘Guardians’ is developed by United for Wildlife founded by William and his charitable foundation. The project also includes a five-year financial package which provides access to affordable insurance cover for 10,000 rangers across Africa, under their ‘Nature Protectors’ initiative.
William had met several rangers during his travels. He realised their hardships after civil wars, illegal fishing or poaching through them.
William and United for Wildlife frequently raises their voice against illegal wildlife trade. As per their observation, illegal wildlife trade is approximately worth up to $20 billion annually, and it is linked to violent crime, corruption and trafficking. Yet, 1.5 million more rangers are required to meet global environment biodiversity targets by 2030 said William.
The prince also paid tribute to late ranger Anton Mzimba, who was shot dead at a nature reserve in South Africa. About 1,400 rangers had lost their lives due to their risky profession over the past ten years, mostly none of them reported.

How MrBeast built a billion dollar empire by giving not keeping
Jimmy Donaldson, better known online as MrBeast, has done what few could imagine: become a billionaire not by keeping, but by giving. At just 27, he's now the youngest self-made billionaire, having built an empire from scratch through YouTube videos that mix wild challenges with generosity.
Hailing from a small town in North Carolina, Jimmy started uploading videos to YouTube at 12. His early content was simple, like gaming clips, reaction videos, and goofy stunts. Then came a game-changer: a 44-hour-long video of him counting to 100,000. It was bizarre, oddly addictive, and wildly popular. That viral moment unlocked a formula: doing something ridiculous, filming it, and tying it all to massive giveaways.

But this wasn’t just about fame. MrBeast quickly leaned into over-the-top generosity as his brand. Whether it was tipping delivery drivers with houses or giving £800,000 (₹8.4 crore) to the last person touching a briefcase of cash, each stunt pushed the line between entertainment and philanthropy. And viewers couldn’t get enough.

Today, his main channel boasts 270 million subscribers, the highest for any individual creator, with his other channels, including Beast Reacts and MrBeast Gaming, pushing the total to over 415 million. But YouTube is just one piece of his empire.
MrBeast turned that attention into business gold. He launched Beast Burger, a virtual fast-food chain, and Feastables, a chocolate brand, both multi-million-pound ventures. He’s also invested in up-and-coming creators and crypto, showing he’s not just generous but also sharp with money.
Still, what sets Jimmy apart is his mindset. He’s often said that he doesn’t aim to stack wealth for luxury but to use it for good. His foundation, Beast Philanthropy, runs food drives, builds homes, and even funds surgeries. It’s not just a side project, it’s central to his identity.
Court documents in 2024 revealed his businesses generated hundreds of millions, officially confirming his billionaire status. Yet on a podcast earlier this year, he casually noted he barely keeps any money for himself.

MrBeast isn’t following a blueprint; he’s making one. He built a fortune on kindness, and in doing so, redefined what modern success can look like: not how much you keep, but how much good you can do.
In the long and undistinguished annals of Bollywood mediocrity, Harshvardhan Rane holds a curious place. Neither a major star nor a complete unknown, he has hovered on the periphery of stardom for nearly a decade.
Despite having almost exclusively delivered flops, he has somehow managed to stay in the news. His latest brush with relevance comes via an unnecessary controversy, wrapped in nationalistic chest-thumping and petty social media drama.
Mawra Hocanegetty images
It all began with the inexplicable resurrection of Sanam Teri Kasam, a forgettable romantic drama from 2016 that barely made a dent upon its original release. Dismissed by critics and largely ignored by audiences, it faded into obscurity. But in a bizarre twist, the film found surprising traction when it was re-released in 2025. Why? No one knows – not even the most seasoned industry watchers. Perhaps it was nostalgia, curiosity, or just sheer cinematic masochism. Despite being freely available on YouTube for years, it managed to draw audiences and became moderately successful. Let’s be clear though: it is still not a good film.
What it did do, however, was give renewed attention to an actor who should have been long forgotten by Bollywood. Unsurprisingly, Rane seemed ready to cash in. But instead of showing humility over this rare second wind, he stirred controversy by invoking the real and escalating India–Pakistan conflict. Rather than using his platform to promote peace, he jumped onto social media to boldly declare that he would not work with his Pakistani co-star Mawra Hocane in any potential sequel.
This move was baffling – especially considering Hocane had long since moved on to far bigger stardom and more substantial work. Her response was swift, smart, and scathing. In a single social media post, she dismissed Rane’s performative nationalism, pointing out that a war was ongoing and innocent lives were being lost. She called his statement “shameful, bizarre and desperate,” writing: “While our nations are at war, this is what you come up with — a PR statement to get attention? What a pity!”
Unlike Rane’s patchy career, Hocane is a huge star in Pakistan, with a string of hit TV serials, a larger social media following, and far greater acting range. She does not need to share the screen with him – and certainly not for a sequel no one asked for.
But Rane wasn’t done. He made another clumsy attempt to milk the moment by hinting at a sequel to Sanam Teri Kasam. The film’s co-directors Radhika Rao and Vinay Sapru – whose careers have been even less impressive than Rane’s – weighed in, stating that Hocane would not be part of any such project. The pettiness didn’t end there: Hocane’s face was scrubbed from the Sanam Teri Kasam soundtrack artwork on Spotify. A spiteful move, given that she has the larger fanbase and, frankly, delivered the film’s more memorable performance.

What made these collective statements particularly absurd was that a sequel has not even been officially greenlit. Given Rane’s track record and the clueless directing duo behind the original, any producer willing to back such a venture would need the courage of a war general and the bankroll of a gambler on a losing streak.
As tensions between India and Pakistan escalate, with real lives at stake, Rane’s posturing has felt especially tone-deaf. He now joins a long list of minor celebrities on both sides of the border who have tried to exploit geopolitical crises for publicity, rather than using their platforms to advocate for peace, dialogue – or even basic decency.
At a time when empathy and unity are needed most, Rane, like so many others, chose division and drama. That says a lot — not just about his career, but about how desperation for relevance can turn an actor into a headline-chaser rather than an artist or responsible citizen.
Perhaps instead of reaching for controversy, he should focus on finding a script that finally works. Or better yet, some introspection.
