Actor Vijay Deverakonda has finally responded after reports circulated about an accident involving his car.

In a recent Instagram Story, Vijay reassured fans that he is doing well and there’s no need to worry. He shared, “All is well ❤️ Car took a hit, but we are all fine. Went and did a strength workout as well and just got back home. My head hurts but nothing a biryani and sleep will not fix. So biggest hugs and my love to all of you. Don’t let the news stress you.”

If reports are to be believed, the ‘Liger’ actor was visiting Bhagwan Sri Sathya Sai Baba’s Maha Samadhi in Puttaparthi with his family. The accident occurred on the Hyderabad-Bengaluru Highway in the Jogulamba Gadwal district of Telangana as they were returning to Hyderabad.

According to sources, Vijay’s Lexus LM350 was struck from behind by another vehicle that fled the scene. Uninjured in the collision, he transferred to a friend’s car to continue his journey.

Vijay’s driver has filed a complaint against the unidentified driver, prompting a probe into the incident.

During his visit to Puttaparthi, the ‘Dear Comrade’ actor received a warm welcome from the management there, who greeted him with a bouquet.

A photo of him alongside the Sathya Sai Baba surfaced on social media, attracting attention as netizens spotted an engagement ring on Vijay’s hand. Rumors suggest that he got engaged to his long-time girlfriend, actress Rashmika Mandanna, in a private ceremony.

While neither has publicly confirmed the engagement, it is speculated that the couple plans to tie the knot in February next year.

Actor Arjun Kapoor’s sister Anshula Kapoor expressed gratitude towards her half-sisters, Janhvi and Khushi Kapoor, calling them her ‘soft place to land’ during her recent Ghor Dhana ceremony.

Anshula shared a heartwarming video on her Instagram, showing Janhvi tying a Paranda in her hair, with Khushi assisting.

Feeling overwhelmed with joy, Anshula wrote a touching note, stating, “Didn’t know how much I needed their quiet kind of love until I had it. The kind that doesn’t need words – just a hug at the right time, a hand that reaches to hold mine, a look that says ‘we’ve got you.’ The kind that shows up softly, but stays loud in my heart…”

She continued, “My sounding boards, my built-in cheerleaders, my unspoken comfort. Thank you for being my soft place to land, always. ILY my @janhvikapoor @khushikapoor.” Accompanying her message was the track “Tenu Sang Rakhna” from Alia Bhatt’s “Jigra,” further symbolizing their close sibling bond.

For those unaware, Arjun and Anshula are the children of Boney Kapoor and his first wife, Mona Shourie, while Janhvi and Khushi are daughters from his second marriage to the late actress Sridevi.

Boney Kapoor was visibly emotional during Anshula’s engagement to Rohan Thakkar. He lovingly kissed her hand during the ceremony, showcasing his pride and affection as she embarked on this new chapter.

He also took to Instagram to share photos capturing special moments during the Ghor Dhana. One monochrome picture showed Boney kissing Anshula’s hand, followed by a heartfelt hug. Siblings Janhvi, Khushi, and Arjun also appeared in some of these snapshots.

In a previous post, Boney expressed his feelings with the words, “My darling daughter blessed to have you in our lives. My precious daughter found a precious son-in-law for me. Love you my bachha; all my blessings and happiness to you both forever.”

Superstar comedian Bharti Singh has joyfully announced that she is expecting her second child with husband and writer-producer Haarsh Limbaachiya.

In a heartfelt social media post, Bharti shared a picturesque moment from the mountains, cradling her baby bump and expressing her excitement with the words, “We are pregnant again. Blessed, Ganpati Bappa Morya. Thank you, God. Baby coming soon.”

A Blossom of Love

Bharti and Haarsh’s journey from friendship to love is truly inspiring. They first crossed paths during their time in the television industry, where Haarsh was a writer behind the scenes, while Bharti was already a popular comedian. Their professional collaboration blossomed into a personal bond over the years of dating.

The couple tied the knot in December 2017 in a lavish ceremony in Goa, which was attended by numerous personalities from the television and comedy circuits. They welcomed their first child, a son named Laksh, affectionately known as Gola, in April 2022. Since his birth, Laksh has captured the hearts of many, frequently seen with his parents at events, airports, and shoots. Fans on social media have dubbed him one of the cutest star kids, with videos of his playful antics often going viral.

Health Journey and Determination

Bharti has been candid about her health journey. Before deciding to expand their family, she was on the borderline of diabetes. Determined to embrace motherhood while maintaining good health, she made significant lifestyle changes and dietary adjustments. Bharti has previously shared how losing weight not only helped her address health issues but also boosted her confidence in conceiving naturally.

With the announcement of her second pregnancy, congratulations have poured in from fans and colleagues in the television and film industry. The couple was last seen hosting the reality show, “Laughter Chefs Unlimited Entertainment.”

The recent episode of the quiz-based reality show ‘Kaun Banega Crorepati’ features an engaging interaction between the host Amitabh Bachchan, veteran screenwriter Javed Akhtar, and Javed’s son, Farhan Akhtar.

Fun-filled Moments on Set

A new promo released by the makers shows the trio enjoying a lively time on set. During a segment, Farhan took over the host’s chair and initiated a quiz round with Big B and Javed Akhtar seated on the hotseat.

Farhan posed the question, “A quality that you both want to steal from each other?” Javed replied, “The quality I have seen in him, I have not found in any other person in the film industry.”

Later, Farhan asked, “Who is more popular among ladies?” to which his father humorously responded, “What kind of question is this?” Big B interjected, “No, no, let me tell you,” but Javed, with his characteristic wit, interrupted, “Don’t tell them everything,” prompting laughter from Big B.

Throwback to ‘Lakshya’

In another segment, Amitabh Bachchan reminisced about his first experience working with Farhan Akhtar on the film ‘Lakshya’. Big B recounted, “We have also done a film, that film was ‘Lakshya’. What was my experience of working with him? He came to our room at night and said, ‘Amit uncle, are you having some problem?’ For the first time, I felt that I am a novice. And this master is sitting and telling me, look son, I will tell you how to act. You should do this.”

Legacy of Collaboration

Amitabh shares a long-standing connection with Javed Akhtar. The legendary screenwriter, along with his partner Salim Khan, revolutionized commercial Hindi cinema in the 1970s, crafting a series of blockbusters that established Big B as the iconic ‘angry young man’ and one of India’s greatest stars.

It was the Salim-Javed duo that propelled Big B’s career, effectively reshaping the Bollywood landscape and ushering in his stardom by dethroning Rajesh Khanna during that era.

Space travel might be gaining traction as the next big thing in mainstream tourism, but pop icon Taylor Swift isn’t keen on the idea of venturing into space.

The ‘Fate of Ophelia’ singer made it clear that there is “no reason” for her to follow in the footsteps of celebrities like Katy Perry, William Shatner, and Gayle King when it comes to exploring beyond Earth’s atmosphere. In fact, she finds the whole concept quite “scary.”

During her appearance on the Radio 2 Breakfast Show, host Scott Mills posed the question of whether she would ever consider space travel. Taylor’s response was emphatic: “Never, why would I do that? There’s no reason to do that. I don’t wanna do that ever. I never, oh my god, no. It’s cold, it’s scary. I don’t know if I can come back down. You know what? Thank you for asking because I completely freaked out by the question. I thought you were gonna make me go. Like that was my reaction to it; I was like I’m not going! I was like why are you making me go?! You’re like there’s no spaceship here.”

According to reports, the 35-year-old singer is deterred by the thought that any potential spaceflight she undertook would be met with skepticism. She expressed, “If I go, no one will believe I went. It doesn’t matter if you go because everyone thinks you didn’t go. Or they have a weird take on it. I have no fascination.”

In addition, Taylor addressed concerns from fans that marriage to Travis Kelce might result in her stepping back from making music. Responding to the notion, Scott noted that some fans were speculating, saying, “Well, she’s going to get married and then she’s going to have children and then she’s going to be the last album.”

With a laugh, the ‘Blank Space’ singer replied, “It’s a shockingly offensive thing to say. It’s not why people get married. So that they can quit their job. It’s also like music for me is…”

Currently, it seems Taylor and Travis have no immediate plans for marriage, as she is focused on her latest album, ‘The Life of a Showgirl.’
