Several Bollywood stars attend Vicky Kaushal and Katrina Kaif’s wedding

Close friends and colleagues of Vicky Kaushal and Katrina Kaif, including filmmaker Kabir Khan, his wife Mini Mathur, director Vijay Krishna Achara, Sharvari Wagh, Neha Dhupia, and Angad Bedi arrived in Jaipur on Tuesday morning to attend their wedding.

The three-day wedding festivities of Kaif and Kaushal started on Tuesday with a Mehendi ceremony and to celebrate the occasion, family members, as well as close friends of the couple from the film industry, have reached Rajasthan.


Both Kaif, 38, and Kaushal, left for Jaipur from Mumbai on Monday evening with their families.  Soon after their arrival in Jaipur, the two families drove straight to the wedding venue, Six Senses Fort Barwara, Sawai Madhopur, in a convoy of more than 15 cars.

The wedding preparations have been in full swing. It is going to be a private, intimate affair, but the couple has spared no expense to ensure that they make their special day a memorable one. Vicky has a big, loving, and warm Punjabi family on his side, who are all looking forward to officially welcoming Katrina into the family.

Six Senses Fort Barwara, the luxurious property, a fort converted into a hotel, is guarded by private security personnel and bouncers. Elaborate security arrangements are in place in and around the hotel. According to the source, the Mehendi ceremony is most likely to be held on Tuesday.

Noted playback singers like Shankar Mahadevan, Ehsaan Noorani, Punjabi singer Gurdas Maan, were also spotted arriving at Jaipur earlier today.  There are reports that Mann will be performing at the wedding.  When asked what would he like to say to Katrina and Vicky, Maan told reporters outside Jaipur airport, “My love to the couple. God bless them.”

While both the gates of the hotel are being guarded by private security personnel, local policemen are also seen deployed in the area. District collector Rajendra Kishan said that the district administration has given instructions to the hotel authorities to ensure compliance with Covid-19 safety guidelines. “It is a personal event. I recently held a meeting with our officers and representatives of the hotel and asked them to ensure compliance of Covid-19 related guidelines,” he said.

The hotel authorities and security agency have also been instructed to coordinate with the local police so that there is no security-related issue, he said.

Johnny Depp's dramatic new look in ‘Day Drinker’ sends internet into a frenzy

Johnny Depp is stepping back into Hollywood’s mainstream with a powerful new role in Day Drinker, his first major studio film since the defamation trial with ex-wife Amber Heard. With a fresh look and an intriguing character, Depp is ready to headline a movie that’s already got people talking.

In the first official image from the film, Depp appears nearly unrecognisable. Dressed in a deep navy suit, his long silver hair pulled back and a salt-and-pepper beard framing his face, he cuts a sharp yet mysterious figure. Holding a glass in one hand, he looks worlds away from the roles fans might remember, but that’s exactly what’s catching everyone's attention.

Aimee Lou Wood criticises SNL’s ‘White Potus’ parody for mocking her teeth

Aimee Lou Wood, star of The White Lotus, recently found herself at the centre of controversy after a parody of her character aired on Saturday Night Live (SNL). The skit, a political spoof titled The White Potus, humorously exaggerated aspects of the show, but for Wood, it went too far. Comedian Sarah Sherman impersonated Wood's character, Chelsea, with oversized prosthetic teeth. For Aimee Lou, this portrayal hit a nerve, and she openly criticised it.

Taking to Instagram, the actress expressed her discontent, calling the parody “mean and unfunny.” She argued that while she understood SNL was known for satire, the skit could have been executed with more sophistication and less cheap humour. Wood, who has always been open about her unique appearance, especially her noticeable gap teeth, clarified that she doesn't mind caricatures or playful jabs, but felt this one crossed a line. “I have big gap teeth, not bad teeth,” she wrote, pointing out that the entire joke seemed to target her appearance rather than the content of the skit.

Katy Perry, Lauren Sánchez, and Gayle King soar to space in a historic all-women Blue Origin flight

On Monday morning, six women including pop icon Katy Perry boarded a Blue Origin rocket in West Texas and took off on a short flight to space. The crew spent just over 10 minutes on the journey, experiencing those minutes of weightlessness before they safely returned to Earth.

What made this flight stand out, though, wasn’t just the celebrity presence. This was the first time in over six decades that an all-women team flew to space together. The last time anything close happened was in 1963, when Valentina Tereshkova became the first woman to orbit Earth, alone, on a Soviet mission.
