US restaurant has dosa named after Deepika Padukone

A restaurant in Texas has a dosa named after Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone.

A fan recently took to Twitter to share details of the Deepika Padukone dosa, which is "topped with fiery hot ghost chilli and stuffed with our potato mix."


The fan wrote: "In Austin, people are eating Deepika Padukone as a dosa menu!!"

The 32-year-old actress reposted the picture and captioned it, "What a great way to begin the year... Happy New Year!"

Her husband Ranveer Singh meanwhile shared the menu on his Instagram story and said, "I'll eat that."

Deepika and Ranveer, who married in November, are currently on their honeymoon to an undisclosed location. Recently, Deepika opened up about their six-year-long relationship and said she was ready to get married to Ranveer after Padmaavat.

“I thought of marrying him [Ranveer] after Padmaavat," she told a media outlet. "We knew it was going to happen, it was just a matter of time. When the film released, it just felt correct. He was, of course, ready but had already committed to a few projects. He wasn’t sure if he’d be able to take out the time. But he made it work.”

On the work-front, Ranveer is currently basking in the success of Simmba. Ranveer loves to experiment and he wants to try out something new with each project.

"As an artiste, I have always wanted to entertain audiences, at the same time offering something new to them with every film, with a constant endeavour to push myself to evolve as an actor," Ranveer said in a statement. "With Simmba again, I was doing something absolutely new, thus adding a new dimension to my repertoire," he added.

Two Sinners marks Samir Zaidi’s striking directorial debut

Samir Zaidi, director of 'Two Sinners', emerges as a powerful new voice in Indian film

Indian cinema has a long tradition of discovering new storytellers in unexpected places, and one recent voice that has attracted quiet, steady attention is Samir Zaidi. His debut short film Two Sinners has been travelling across international festivals, earning strong praise for its emotional depth and moral complexity. But what makes Zaidi’s trajectory especially compelling is how organically it has unfolded — grounded not in film school training, but in lived observation, patient apprenticeships and a deep belief in the poetry of everyday life.

Zaidi’s relationship with creativity began well before he ever stepped onto a set. “As a child, I was fascinated by small, fleeting things — the way people spoke, the silences between arguments, the patterns of light on the walls,” he reflects. He didn’t yet have the vocabulary for what he was absorbing, but the instinct was already in place. At 13, he turned to poetry, sensing that the act of shaping emotions into words offered a kind of clarity he couldn’t find elsewhere. “I realised creativity wasn’t something external I had to chase; it was a way of processing the world,” he says. “Whether it was writing or filmmaking, it came from the same impulse: to make sense of what I didn’t fully understand.”
