No break

Despite a mammoth release behind her, Kriti Sanon is in no mood to take a break. Rumour has it that the Mimi actor, who was applauded for her act in the drama — based on surrogacy — is on a brand endorsement-signing spree. She has reportedly been roped in to promote a jewellery brand, an online shopping portal, a premium watch brand, as well as a few FMCG products. On the film front, she has Adipurush, Bachchan Pandey, Bhediya, Ganapath, and Hum Do Hamaare Do in the pipeline.

Taapsee trolls trolls

A day after the release of the trailer of her sports drama, Rashmi Rocket, Taapsee Pannu paid ode to women athletes who are body-shamed. Pannu battled criticism for her look in the trailer, with trolls calling her  “masculine” and a “mard”. She took to social media and posted a video of the harsh comments she received. “There are many women who hear this daily for no fault of theirs. An ode to all the athletes who give their sweat and blood to sports and their nation and still get to hear this.” 

Back at it

Tabu will reportedly commence shooting for the much-awaited Hindi sequel Drishyam 2, with Ajay Devgn, Shriya Saran and Ishita Dutta, soon. The first edition followed a family that comes under scrutiny when the son of inspector Meera Deshmukh (played by Tabu) goes missing. Tabu is expected to slip into the role of the tough cop, yet again. 

Marriage not on my mind

Sayani Gupta says she does not believe in the institution of marriage. In an interview, the actor said, “I have a different idea of companionship. I used to believe in the institution of marriage, but it is not really necessary for one’s happiness. You can live with your friends, and siblings, and enjoy your own company.”

Mask up

The lackadaisical attitude of city-folk when it comes to following COVID-19 protocols is evident, but Janhvi Kapoor is rightfully entertaining none of it. The actor recently schooled a fan who approached her for a selfie without wearing his mask. She was snapped while exiting her gym when the incident was captured on camera. She eventually posed for a selfie from a distance.
