Kannada actor Sudeep joins Salman Khan on the cast of Dabangg 3

Buzz has it that Kannada megastar Sudeep, who has also appeared in a couple of Tamil and Telugu movies in his over two-decade-long acting career, has been finalized to feature in superstar Salman Khan’s forthcoming film Dabangg 3.

According to reports, Sudeep will be seen as an antagonist in the third instalment of the hit cop franchise Dabangg. A source adds that Prabhudheva recently narrated the basic premise of Dabangg 3 to the actor who liked what he heard and gave his verbal nod to the film. He will sign the project on the dotted line soon.


“Sudeep and Salman have been planning to team up on a film for a long time and things have finally fallen in place. The two will engage in Tom and Jerry kind of skirmishes in Dabangg 3. Sudeep’s character has shades of grey,” a well-placed source reveals.

Dabangg 3, which is being directed by actor-choreographer-filmmaker Prabhudeva, is set to start rolling in the month of April. If the source is to be believed, the film will be wrapped up within 90-100 days. There are also reports that Salman is planning to release the cop-drama around the festivities of Christmas later this year.

Dabangg 3 is being bankrolled by Salman Khan’s younger brother Arbaaz Khan who also directed Dabangg 2, the second instalment of the franchise.

The much-awaited film is rumoured to be a two-heroine project. While Sonakshi Sinha, who played the female lead in the first two instalments of the franchise, is almost confirmed to return to the sequel, no official word has come on the actress who plays the second female lead in the high-profile project.

Meghan Markle's 'With Love, Meghan' renewed for season 2 despite critic backlash and ratings

Despite being panned by reviewers, Meghan Markle's 'With Love, Meghan'has managed to secure a second season, and it is almost true that controversy still fuels viewership. The eight-episode show, which premiered on Tuesday, features the Duchess of Sussex sharing cooking, gardening, and hosting tips from a stunning California estate. Despite being labelled “gormless lifestyle filler” by *The Guardian* and an “exercise in narcissism” by *The Telegraph*, the series has found its way into Netflix’s top 10 in 47 countries, including the U.S., Canada, and South Africa.

The show’s renewal was announced just hours after its debut, with Meghan sharing the news on Instagram in her signature playful style. Wearing a hat that read “lettuce romaine calm,” she posted, “Lettuce romaine calm… or not (!) because I'm thrilled to share that Season 2 of *With Love, Meghan* is coming!” She added, “If you're loving Season 1, just wait until you see the fun we cooked up on Season 2!”

Women in their villain era: Ditching the ‘Good Girl’ act and owning unapologetic power

Let’s face it: the world has never been a safe space for women. It’s a place where we’re told to smile while being catcalled, to be polite while being undermined, and to shrink ourselves to fit into the tiny, suffocating box labelled “likeable.” In a world that often feels set against them with unsafe streets, glass ceilings, impossible beauty standards, and a relentless demand to be nice, women have had enough. They are done playing nice. The good girl act is out, and the villain era is in. And when they decided to break free? Oh honey, they did it with a bang.

This is the age of women flipping the script, ditching the nice girl manual, and embracing their inner bad guy. And why wouldn’t we? When the world is a dumpster fire of double standards, violence, and impossible expectations, sometimes the only way to survive is to become the villain they already think you are. And let’s be real: when women stop playing by the rules, it’s not a breakdown. It’s a breakthrough.

Sara Davies steps back from Dragons' Den to save Crafter’s Companion

Sara Davies, a well-known face on BBC’s Dragons’ Den, has decided to step back from the show to focus on her own business, Crafter’s Companion. The 40-year-old entrepreneur, who joined the series in 2019 as the youngest female Dragon at 35, shared the news on Instagram, explaining that her role as CEO of her craft supply company requires her full attention. While fans will still see her in the second half of the current season, she won’t be part of the next series.

Davies, who founded Crafter’s Companion in 2005 while still at university, built the business from her bedroom into a global brand. She recently returned as CEO after the company faced financial challenges earlier this year, stepping in to save jobs and stabilise the business. In her Instagram post, she described the decision to leave Dragons’ Den as a tough but necessary one, emphasising that being a Dragon involves far more than just filming. “It’s about committing to the businesses you invest in and seeing them grow,” she wrote. “That’s why I need to focus on my first ‘baby’—my own business.”
