Kriti Kharbanda recalls shooting for 'Guest iin London'

It's a nostalgic day for actress Kriti Kharbanda as her film Guest iin London has completed six years since it was released. Helmed by Ashwni Dhir, the film is a family entertainer which plays on the theme of uninvited guests. Kriti and Kartik Aaryan essay the role of a young couple who are living a comfortable life in London, only until Paresh Rawal and Tanvi Azmi arrive and end up creating havoc in their lives.

Recalling working on the film, Kriti took to Instagram and penned a lengthy note.


"Guest in London! A movie with many firsts! The first time I worked with @panorama_studios :) they welcomed me with open arms and I made so many new friends on this set, whom I can proudly call my friends even today. Ashwini Dhir sir, our director not only gave me the opportunity to act in this film but also share screen space with the greats of our industry. @tanviazmiofficial @pareshrawalofficial," she wrote.

"I had the most fun on set with these two! They're happy souls and it shows. Ah, the things I'd do to go back and relive my time with them! @kartikaaryan from a fab costar to a dear dear friend. We came a long way. We were two passionate, driven, and motivated actors. Always trying to do what's best for the film and for ourselves. From discussing our debuts to our future to our dreams. This journey was so adventurous! @abhishekpathakk thank u for being the shoulder I could cry on! To everyone else I'm unable to mention here, just know that you've genuinely made a difference, and I'm glad our paths crossed," she added.

She also shared several BTS images and videos from the sets of the film.

Kriti made her big screen debut with the Telugu film Boni in 2009. Her first screen appearance in Bollywood was in 2016 with Raaz: Reboot, a horror-thriller by Vikram Bhatt. However, Kirti rose to prominence in the industry after her strong performance in the hit Bollywood film Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana in 2017.

​Scarlett Johansson slams SNL’s 'gross' vagina joke: ‘It was intense. I felt like I’d pass out!'

Scarlett Johansson has finally addressed the jaw-dropping joke about her that aired during Saturday Night Live’s holiday episode in December. Her husband, Colin Jost, was made to deliver the punchline live on air, and Johansson, watching from backstage, was left stunned. In a recent interview with InStyle, she described the moment as “so gross” and admitted she couldn’t believe the show went that far.

The joke was part of the show’s annual “Weekend Update” tradition, where Jost and his co-host Michael Che write outrageous jokes for each other to read without any prior warning. This time, Che handed Jost a line that compared Johansson to a Costco roast beef sandwich in a joke about their sex life. When Jost read it aloud, the audience gasped. Meanwhile, cameras backstage caught Johansson’s reaction mouth open, clearly shocked.

Amitabh Bachchan buys prime land near Ram Mandir in Ayodhya for father’s memorial

Amitabh Bachchan has purchased a second plot of land in Ayodhya, this time a large 54,454 square foot piece, located roughly 10 kilometres from the newly consecrated Ram Mandir. The land was bought through the Harivansh Rai Bachchan Trust, an organisation set up by the actor in 2013 to honour his late father, the renowned poet Harivansh Rai Bachchan.

This latest purchase adds to Bachchan’s earlier investment in Ayodhya. In January 2024, he bought land in a premium township called Haveli Avadh for ₹4.54 crore. Reports suggest that property was meant for residential use. Now, sources indicate the newly acquired land could be developed into a memorial dedicated to his father’s life and literary legacy.

Stan Lee’s tragic final years: Shocking new documentary exposes elder abuse and exploitation

Stan Lee spent his life bringing superheroes to the world—Spider-Man, the X-Men, Iron Man, and so many more. But behind the joyful cameos and conventions, his last years were marked by serious exploitation. A new documentary, Stan Lee: The Final Chapter, talks about the dark, uncomfortable truth about what really happened.

The film is being put together by Jon Bolerjack, who worked closely with Lee during his final four years. Bolerjack wasn’t just an assistant; he was a witness to what many believe was the mishandling and manipulation of an ageing legend. According to Bolerjack, Lee was constantly pushed to sign memorabilia and make public appearances, despite his poor health. In video clips already shared, Lee appears exhausted while being shuffled between events.
