A few days ago, Akshay Kumar started shooting for Aanand L Rai’s Atrangi Re. The actor had posted about it on Instagram to inform his fans.

He had posted a picture of himself with Sara Ali Khan, and captioned it as, The joy brought by those three magic words is unmatched : Lights, Camera, Action ? Begun shooting for #AtrangiRe by @aanandlrai. Need all your love and best wishes ?? An @arrahman musical. Written by: #HimanshuSharma @saraalikhan95 @dhanushkraja @tseries.official @cypplofficial #CapeOfGoodFilms @harjeetsphotography.”

Today, Akshay has posted a video of himself where he is shooting for the film at Taj Mahal, and is sporting the look of Shah Jahan.

Sara also posted a picture of Akshay in that avatar and wrote, “Because it can’t get more Atrangi than this ? Not Shah Jahan- Mr Kumar it is ? @akshaykumar.”

Atrangi Re also stars Dhanush in the lead role. The movie was announced earlier this year, and the shooting had also started, but due to the lockdown, the shoot was put to a halt. However, in October this year, the team resumed the shoot.

Atrangi Re was slated to release on Valentine’s Day next year. But, it will surely get postponed, and the makers have not yet announced the new release date of the film.

Pensioners face £2,700  increase to maintain retirement lifestyle

Pensioners now need to pay £2,700 more in income tax to maintain a comfortable retirement compared to four years ago, according to The Telegraph.

In the 2020-21 tax year, a pensioner would have paid £5,058 in income tax to support a "comfortable" lifestyle. By 2023-24, this figure had risen to £7,787, an increase of £2,729 or 54%, driven by higher living costs and the impact of frozen income tax thresholds.

Taylor Swift sends Kanye West legal warning after vulgar outburst

Taylor Swift has officially responded to Kanye West’s latest online tirade not with a song, but through legal channels. The pop star has reportedly sent West a cease and desist notice following a series of sexually explicit and defamatory posts he made about her on X on April 10.

In the now-deleted tweets, West didn’t just go after Swift; he dragged in Justin Bieber and Harry Styles, making wild and offensive claims about their alleged involvement with the singer. Without a shred of proof, West claimed the trio had been sexually involved and said he was “mad” he hadn’t “slept with Taylor yet.” These remarks sparked immediate backlash, not only from Swift's fans but from the wider public and even some of West’s remaining supporters.

Akshay Kumar hits back at Jaya Bachchan’s ‘flop film’ remark: ‘Only a fool would criticise such films’

At a press event for his upcoming film Kesari Chapter 2, Akshay Kumar was asked about recent remarks made by veteran actor and politician Jaya Bachchan, who criticised the title of his 2017 movie Toilet: Ek Prem Katha. Jaya Bachchan had dismissed the film during a public interaction, saying she would never watch a movie with such a title. “Is that even a name for a film?” she asked the audience, adding that the film was a “flop” based on the crowd’s lukewarm response when asked if they had seen it.

Caught off guard, Akshay Kumar initially said he wasn’t aware of the comment but responded with a measured tone: “If she’s said something, maybe she’s right. If making Toilet: Ek Prem Katha was a mistake, then I’ll accept that.”
However, he also stood by the intention behind the film. “I’ve made movies like Pad Man, Airlift, Kesari, all with a purpose. I make these films with full honesty. They try to raise awareness, and I believe that counts,” he added. He stressed that films like Toilet and Pad Man are still used by the government to educate people in villages, showing their long-term impact.
