Karisma Kapoor is back in the reckoning once again. After staying away from light, camera and action for almost eight long years, the diva made her acting comeback with the much-talked-about ALTBalaji webseries Mentalhood (2020).

Produced by content czarina Ekta Kapoor, the webseries has received overwhelming response from viewers and is still attracting a huge chunk of the audience. With a superhit webseries already in her kitty, Karisma Kapoor has been receiving a slew of new web projects ever since the grand premiere of Mentalhood. However, the actress seems in no hurry and is taking her time before greenlighting her next project.

“Right from the time her show was announced, she has been given many offers. The web is a different medium from cinema and not only offers scope for women as lead actresses but also moves beyond the song and dance routine,” a source in the know informs a popular publication.

The source goes on to add that the actress has around seven offers on her platter at the moment. “Lolo has around seven offers for shows, but she has not really agreed to any of them. The lockdown is in place at the moment and she has enough time to sit and introspect on what she wants to do next,” the source says in conclusion.

The success of Mentalhood has proved that Karisma Kapoor’s popularity has not contracted even a bit over the years. She still has her loyal audience that wants to see her more before cameras. We hope that she announces her next project soon. It will be great if she picks up some films also as some of her fans want to see her sizzle the silver screen once again.

Shah Rukh Khan's £1.7m Mumbai home renovation halted by green tribunal

Shah Rukh Khan’s iconic Bandra bungalow, Mannat, is under scrutiny after an environmental activist alleged violations of coastal and heritage regulations during its ongoing renovation. India’s environmental watchdog, known as the National Green Tribunal (NGT), has stepped in to investigate the claims, highlighting the tension between urban development and environmental conservation.
Mannat, a Grade III heritage structure, has been Shah Rukh Khan’s residence since 2001. The bungalow, estimated to be worth around £1.7m (200 crore), is undergoing significant renovations, including the addition of floors to the annexe, expanding its built-up area by 616.02 square metres. However, activist Santosh Daundkar has raised concerns over alleged violations of Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) norms, which are designed to protect Mumbai’s ecologically sensitive coastal areas.


Daundkar’s complaint to the NGT accuses Khan of demolishing two heritage structures without obtaining the necessary environmental clearance. He also alleges the illegal construction of a basement six metres below ground level, involving the extraction of groundwater and minor minerals, both prohibited under CRZ rules. Additionally, Daundkar claims that Khan constructed 12 one-bedroom-hall-kitchen flats under the guise of mass housing and later combined them into a luxury single-family residence, violating India’s Urban Land (Ceiling and Regulation) Act, 1976.

Samantha Ruth Prabhu breaks gender barriers with equal pay policy in debut production 'Bangaram'

Samantha Ruth Prabhu is rewriting the rules in South Indian cinema, and this time, it’s not just with her acting. With her first production venture, Bangaram, she’s made headlines for setting a new standard: equal pay for everyone on set, regardless of gender. That’s something rarely seen in an industry where pay gaps are the norm.

When Samantha launched her production house, Tralala Moving Pictures, in December 2023, her vision was clear: tell stories that matter and create an inclusive space for talent. Bangaram, directed by Nandini Reddy, is the company’s debut film, and it’s already turning heads. While the first-look poster generated plenty of buzz, what really caught people’s attention was Samantha’s insistence on fair wages for all cast members, regardless of gender.
