Samantha asks votes for TDP candidate Satya Prasad. Internet destroys her

Samantha Akkineni is on cloud nine as her recently-released film Majili has hit a home run and is setting the box office on fire. Directed by Shiva Nirvana, the film has her husband Naga Chaitanya playing the lead role alongside Divyansha Kaushik.
Now, the actress is embroiled in a controversy as a video of herself campaigning for Telugu Desam Party (TDP) candidate Satya Prasad has found its way to the Internet. Many wondered why Samantha is supporting a TDP candidate and putting out her political stance on social media. 
When a curious fan asked how she is related to Satya Prasad, she replied, "Yes family friend .. my support is personally towards him. I know him and his sister @DrManjula_A since the time I moved to Hyderabad .. hence I support because he is a good person (sic)" While Samantha cleared the air and announced her support to Mr. Satya Prasad, her answer has not been received well by her fans. Her followers state that she could be in trouble for openly expressing her political stance.

Janhvi Kapoor recalls huge fight with mom Sridevi after revealing she wanted to be an actor

Being the daughter of legendary actress Sridevi and producer Boney Kapoor, Janhvi Kapoor has acting in her blood. On Anaita Shroff Adajania's chat show, she revealed that she has wanted to be an actress for as long as she can remember. "It was always the dream," she said.

Janhvi also recalled the time she had a huge argument she had with Sridevi and was in tears. "I remember this one incident. This was a little after I told mom I wanted to act. We had an argument about something and I started crying a lot," she said.

Sridevi actually got quite happy when she realised that Janhvi looked good while crying. "I was really crying and she looked at me and said, 'You look good when you cry. It's good for an actor. I feel bad for you.' I was like, 'Mom, you really need to feel bad for me, not from an actor's point of view,'" the Dhadak actress revealed.

Unfortunately, Sridevi passed away before Janhvi's debut film, Shashank Khaitan's Dhadak, hit the theatres. However, the 22-year-old displayed immense professionalism when she returned to the sets and resumed shooting just days after the tragic loss.

Janhvi Kapoor confesses that she flirts a lot

Janhvi Kapoor was at her candid best on Anaita Shroff Adajania's chat show, on which she made quite a few interesting revelations. The episode ended with a bang, with her confessing that she was a huge flirt."I think I flirt a lot. Even when I don't intend to, even when I don't think I am, it just..." Janhvi revealed.
When Anaita asked if it was just her body language, she replied in the negative.
"No! I think it's my curiosity to know people. I automatically start seeming interested, I guess. Even though I am really not," the Dhadak actress said.
Janhvi revealed that she was "flirty from a distance". "Like, 'What is the meaning of your life?' And then they would really think and they would be like, 'Oh my God, maybe she is the girl of my dreams.' Then I would be like, 'Adios!'" she said.
On the show, Janhvi also said that she believed in soulmates. "I don't understand the concept of friends with benefits at all. It's quite tragic, really," she said.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Janhvi is shooting for Kargil Girl, which brings the story of IAF pilot Gunjan Saxena alive on celluloid. Gunjan helped evacuate injured soldiers from Kargil in 1999 and was the first woman to be awarded the Shaurya Chakra.
Angad Bedi will be seen as Gunjan's brother Anshuman Saxena, while Pankaj Tripathi will play their father. Kargil Girl is being helmed by debutant director Sharan Sharma and is being produced by Dharma Productions.

Over 600 Theatre Artistes Sign On A Statement Urging The Public To Not Vote For BJP & Allies

It’s only been a few days since more than a hundred film personnel including the likes of Vetrimaaran, Sanal Kumar Sasidharan & documentary filmmaker, Anand Patwardhan, came together with a statement to vote the BJP out.

And now, 616 theatre artistes have signed off on a statement that urges the public to not vote for ‘BJP & its allies’. The signatories include veterans like Naseeruddin Shah, Ratna Pathak Shah, Mita Vashisht, Vinay Pathak and Konkona Sen Sharma among many others.

The statement touches upon the community of theatre artistes, that has acted like a mirror to society. Theatre has been the place where social evils have been addressed, and as the statement reads – ‘we (theatre artists) have struck a blow at patriarchy, Brahmanism and caste oppression’. Further adding that the ‘idea of India is under threat’, the statement called for this breeding of hate to stop.

“The BJP, which came to power five years ago with the promise of development, has given free rein to Hindutva goons to indulge in the politics of hate and violence. The man who was portrayed as the saviour of the nation five years ago has destroyed the livelihoods of millions through his policies. He promised to bring back black money; instead, rogues have looted the country and run away. The wealth of the rich has grown astronomically, while the poor have become even poorer.”

Student Of The Year 2 trailer: Tiger Shroff, Ananya Panday, Tara Sutaria fight for love in new KJo film trailer of Student Of The Year 2 is out and it takes you back to 2012, when we saw the first batch of Karan Johar's glamorous, Gucci-toting students on the big screen in Student Of The Year. That film launched Alia Bhatt, Varun Dhawan and Sidharth Malhotra in Bollywood. Seven years later, we have the second film in the Student Of The Year franchise. Taking on the baton from the earlier batch of 'students' are Tiger Shroff, Tara Sutaria and Ananya Panday.
Karan Johar took to Twitter to release the trailer of Student Of The Year 2, a film that is strikingly similar to its predecessor, or so the three-minute trailer would have you believe.
Watch the trailer here:

Student Of The Year 2 is directed by Punit Malhotra and produced under Karan Johar's Dharma Productions banner. There is a strong hangover of the previous film in the trailer. The difference? While there were two guys vying for the attention of one girl in the first film, the sequel has two girls fighting for one guy.

Is Farhan Akhtar's family upset with his PDA with girlfriend Shibani Dandekar?

Love is in the air for Farhan Akhtar and Shibani Dandekar. The couple has been going strong for a year, and their sizzling photos on social-media never fail to set the internet on fire. However, if reports are to be believed, Farhan's family is less than pleased about his PDA with Shibani.
"Farhan is a father of two growing-up daughters. He has every right to be happy in life. But this sudden spurt of PDA with his girlfriend is most uncharacteristic. Farhan was never so demonstrative with Adhuna (his first wife). His family is wondering what's gotten into him," a source told a portal.
Just a while back, Farhan and Shibani went on a holiday, and their pictures went viral on the internet. In one picture, Farhan is seen holding Shibani from the back. While Shibani looks hot in her brown bikini, Farhan is seen wearing multicolored shorts. When a newspaper asked Shibani if she was in a relationship with Farhan, she chose to neither confirm or deny the news. "I am not secretive, but I don't feel the need to say things out loud," was all she was willing to say.
"I don't need to make an announcement about who I'm dating. It's up to me to decide when and what I want to share about my personal life, and it is up to the audience to decide how they look at it. How much information I want to put out in the public domain is my prerogative," she added.
Shibani had just celebrated Holi with Farhan's family. She took to Instagram to share a picture of their Holi celebration. She captioned the picture saying, "@faroutakhtar #javedakhtar @abheetgidwani @ankurtewari @thesubaya @sandymridul."

Salman Khan is one of the biggest Bollywood stars. Even at the age of 53, he can give any young actor a run for his money. But Salman Khan calls himself a mediocre actor with a solid fan following. The Bharat actor in an interview to a daily opened up on the success mantra in Bollywood, and how his friends Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan are far more talented than him.
While Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan are having a tough time bouncing back after their last debacles at the box office, Salman Khan is busy signing one film after the other. Talking about it, Salman told a daily, "By the grace of God, the films that I'm choosing have done well. But it is not as if Aamir or Shah Rukh are choosing bad or worse films.
There are times when the movies I've chosen, to the best of my knowledge, haven't worked. And then one film works and you're back."The Race 3 actor said that he is more tensed about his films as Aamir and Shah Rukh know their craft. "SRK is a legend, as is Aamir. A bad movie here or there may happen, but they will always come back. Actually, tension toh mera hai.
Aamir and SRK know their craft. I've heard people saying they're not so sure about me."Salman Khan added that he is "surviving on mediocre talent and luck" and it's his solid fan following that's helping him survive in the industry.
