Will Smith makes a comeback with first album in 20 years, ‘Based on a true story’

Will Smith is returning to his music roots after 20 years with Based on a True Story, his first album since 2005, releasing March 28. Known for his early rap career with DJ Jazzy Jeff and later as a solo artist, Smith is now using music to tell his side of the story after a rough few years in the spotlight.

This new album comes after a long pause in his music career. His last full-length project, Lost and Found, dropped back in 2005. Since then, Smith has mainly focused on acting, with highs like King Richard (which earned him an Oscar) and lows like the backlash following his onstage altercation with Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars. That moment led to a 10-year ban from the Academy Awards and stalled several film projects. But for now, Smith seems ready to reset.

'War 2', starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR, set for August 2025 release

The much-anticipated sequel War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR, has locked in its release date: August 14, 2025. Yash Raj Films (YRF), the studio behind the project, confirmed the news by re-sharing a fan-made video on their official X handle, cheekily hinting at the chaos to come in cinemas even before the movie’s promotions have officially begun.

Directed by Ayan Mukerji, War 2 is the follow-up to the 2019 blockbuster War, which featured Hrithik Roshan alongside Tiger Shroff. In this sequel, Roshan reprises his role as Major Kabir Dhaliwal, and joining him is Jr NTR in a pivotal role. Kiara Advani also stars in the film. Ayan Mukerji, with his last release Brahmastra, steps into the director’s seat this time, taking over from Siddharth Anand, who directed the first film.

Adolescence

Netflix’s Adolescence delivers a raw, unflinching portrayal of teenage male rage, toxic masculinity, and the dark influence of online incel culture

Netflix

Netflix’s ‘Adolescence’ hailed as a ‘flawless’ drama on incel culture and teenage male violence

Netflix’s latest British drama, Adolescence, has left viewers shaken and for good reason. Released just last week, the four-part series has already shot to the top of the platform’s charts globally. But this isn’t your regular crime show; it’s a raw, disturbing exploration of male violence, social media influence, and the kind of quiet rage that can twist a teenage boy’s life beyond recognition.

The story centres on Jamie Miller, a 13-year-old boy accused of murdering a classmate. Played by newcomer Owen Cooper, Jamie is ripped from his home during a dawn police raid, and the camera never blinks. Shot in a single, continuous take, each hour-long episode drags you through his world without giving you a moment to look away. Director Philip Barantini, of Boiling Point fame, and cinematographer Matt Lewis make sure of that. The effect is claustrophobic, relentless and impossible to forget.

Kangana Ranaut dismisses Oscars, slams America for ‘bullying and suppressing’ developing nations

Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut is no stranger to making bold statements, both on and off the screen. Known for her fearless approach to the film industry and her outspoken opinions, she has once again sparked debate by dismissing the prestigious Academy Awards. Following the success of her latest film, Emergency, which has topped Netflix since its release, Kangana referred to the Oscars as “silly” and critiqued America’s global influence, claiming it bullies and suppresses developing nations.

The political drama, Emergency, directed by and starring Ranaut, delves into one of India’s most controversial periods, the Emergency imposed by Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in 1975. As the film has been celebrated for its nuanced portrayal of the political landscape and for Kangana’s performance, some fans suggested that the film deserved an Oscar nod. However, in her characteristic style, Kangana dismissed the idea, emphasising the importance of India’s own National Film Awards over international accolades.
