Kapoors with family

Another round of celebrations


After Rhea Kapoor and Karan Boolani’s wedding celebrations earlier this week, the Kapoors got together again for the godh bharai of Antara Motiwalla Marwah. She is Sonam and Rhea Kapoor’s cousin Mohit Marwah’s wife. Antara and Mohit, who wed in 2018, are expecting their first child. The ceremony was conducted at Tina Ambani’s Cuffe Parade home. Antara’s mother Bhavna Motiwalla is Ambani’s sister. In attendance were Anil and Sunita Kapoor, Sonam K Ahuja, Boney Kapoor and daughter Khushi, Maheep and Shanaya Kapoor, and Arjun Kapoor with sister Anshula. Sonam shared several pictures from the ceremony and captioned it, “The khandaan.”


Return of the studio audience


Amitabh Bachchan

The new season of Kaun Banega Crorepati will have new additions to the format, including the reinstatement of the studio audience. Last year, the Amitabh Bachchan-hosted show underwent several changes to adapt to the social distancing norms of shooting amid the pandemic. For the first time in 20 years, the show did not have a live audience due to which the lifeline ‘audience poll’ was replaced by ‘video-a-friend’. The upcoming 13th season will see a return of the lifeline along with 50:50, Ask the Expert and Flip the Question. Big B, who began shooting for the quiz show last week, is “thrilled” that the studio audience is back. “It was probably for the first time that it wasn’t a part of KBC and we saw a major change in the lifelines as well. I, for one, truly missed them and their energy; it’s infectious. The audience and the contestants inspire me in every way,” says the veteran superstar.

Best known for the Bekhayali song in Kabir Singh (2019), they have been busy with their commitments but Tandon’s birthday (August 17) provided the opportunity to head to the hills. “We’ve been going through hectic schedules. As it was my first birthday after marriage, we wanted to make it special and celebrate in a unique way,” says Tandon. He also indulged in a live Instagram session to thank fans for standing by their side in their “highs and lows.”

Relief for Bhansali

Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Alia Bhatt

The Bombay High Court has granted an interim stay on criminal defamation proceedings against Gangubai Kathiawadi producer-director Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Alia Bhatt, who plays the titular role. The court also refused to stay the release of the film. Babuji Shah, who claims to be the adopted son of Kathiawadi, had filed a complaint that the film was inspired by the book, Mafia Queens of Mumbai, and some portions of it were ‘defamatory’ and ‘tarnished’ Kathiawadi’s reputation. The next date of hearing is September 7.

Bees saal baad

Nushratt Bharuccha

It’s 20 years since Nushratt Bharuccha first faced the camera. Not many know that she began with television and her first outing was Manish Goswami’s Kittie Party starring Poonam Dhillon, Deepshikha Nagpal and Shveta Salve. The producer recalls that she was still in her teens and on the first day of the shoot, she reached late as she lost her way at Film City and was a “bundle of nerves.” Bharuccha played Dhillon’s son’s girlfriend Tanya in the show, written by Shobhaa De. Goswami adds that she was determined to make her mark as an actor, and her father Tanvir used to accompany her on the set.
