Actress Nikita Dutta recently took to social media to share snapshots from her spontaneous solo trip to London this Christmas.

Exploring London’s Holiday Spirit

Embracing the festive vibe of the city, Nikita provided a glimpse into her tranquil moments abroad. On her Instagram, the ‘Kabir Singh’ star posted a video detailing her first day in London. She spoke about her arrival, enduring the chilly weather, and indulging in gelato despite the cold.

Among her adventures, Nikita enjoyed observing squirrels and birds at St James’s Park and visited Winston Churchill’s War Rooms. She strolled through iconic landmarks, including Trafalgar Square and Bond Street, relishing the beautifully illuminated Christmas streets, eventually concluding her day with a comforting pasta meal. Alongside her video, she captioned, “Day 1 in London: Ate too much, walked too much, still not tired. Christmas, London, travel, a day in my life.”

Day One Reflections

In her video, Nikita shared, “Day one on my unexpected unplanned solo trip to London. I have landed, checked in, covered myself up while it’s eight degrees outside, and very wisely decided to enter a gelato store because that’s what intelligent people do. I am eating a double scoop of vanilla and hazelnut chocolate gelato in this cold while I’m walking outside and I have the cold wind hitting me.”

She continued, “I don’t know how wise that idea was, but while walking I entered St James Park, and you can see that pretty squirrel right there and these birds giving me the most aesthetic unexpected shot. While walking, I came across these gorgeous beauties. Just look at this one walk. I was so obsessed I tried to follow it for the longest time and then finally gave up and let them be because they’re just gonna act cool the whole time.”

Nikita shared more about her adventures, “I continued walking because the sun was still shining bright, which is, by the way, a rare sight over here. Once I got to Winston Churchill’s war room, it is inside a basement.”

Busy Streets and Delicious Food

“I walked towards Trafalgar Square, which I think is the most crowded place in the world currently. At least, that’s what I think. There was barely any space to walk. That’s the pretty Christmas tree of Central London. I then walked to Primark to buy essentials like gloves, leggings, and caps because, yes, it’s really cold, and I was starving after that. In search of food, I kept walking through these beautifully lit streets,” she added.

“That’s Bond Street, by the way, one of the prettiest streets. This was something I just randomly walked through, the Birlingham Arcade, in search of food when I finally landed at Chaconne’s, which was the first place I saw. I enjoyed a plateful of pasta because, look at those steps, and that’s how I want to end it.”

Upcoming Projects

On the work front, Nikita Dutta has appeared in notable projects such as “Gold,” “Kabir Singh,” “The Big Bull,” the supernatural horror film “Dybbuk,” and the web series “Khakee: The Bihar Chapter.”

As “Welcome” celebrates its 18th anniversary, Anil Kapoor reflects on the film with gratitude and nostalgia.

A Heartfelt Tribute to Feroz Khan

In a touching homage to the late Feroz Khan, Anil Kapoor reminisced about the impact of Khan’s iconic character RDX. Kapoor noted how the veteran actor infused the film with unmatched energy and gravitas, turning the role into one of its standout features. He highlighted that Feroz Khan was instrumental in elevating the film through his powerful performance.

On Sunday, Anil Kapoor shared images from the beloved comedy-drama on his X handle. The nostalgic photos feature him posing alongside Feroz Khan and Nana Patekar. One memorable monochrome image dates back to 1986, showing the late actor with his arms around Anil. Other shots capture their scenes together in “Welcome.” In his caption, the ‘Animal’ actor expressed, “18 years of Welcome. This one’s for Feroz Khan Saab. Welcome wasn’t Welcome without RDX, just like Mr. India wasn’t complete without Mogambo. Both are irreplaceable. Period.”

Anil Kapoor further stated, “I remember hearing the script and wondering how it would land. Picture yaha ruk jati hai baith jati hain. Anees bhai said, ‘Chinta mat karo… Feroz Saab picture utha lenge.’ And he did. RDX lifted the film. This film. This character, this madness, this magic.”

About “Welcome”

The 2007 Hindi-language romantic comedy was co-written and directed by Anees Bazmee. It drew loose inspiration from the 1999 English comedy “Mickey Blue Eyes.” The film features an ensemble cast including Feroz Khan, Anil Kapoor, Nana Patekar, Akshay Kumar, Katrina Kaif, Paresh Rawal, and Mallika Sherawat, with special appearances by Sunil Shetty and Malaika Arora.

Importantly, “Welcome” marked Feroz Khan’s final on-screen role, as he passed away two years later after a battle with lung cancer.

Actors Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday are currently engaged in promoting their upcoming romantic entertainer, “Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri,” set to hit theaters on December 25 this Christmas.

Kartik and Ananya on KBC

The duo made an appearance on the popular reality game show, “Kaun Banega Crorepati,” giving fans a glimpse of the fun they had backstage with Amitabh Bachchan. They shared a delightful video where the legendary actor struggled to pronounce the title of their film.

In the clip, Amitabh is seen practicing the lengthy title like a tongue twister, while Kartik and Ananya offer their assistance. When he finally pronounces it correctly, the trio celebrates with a resounding “Yeahhhh!”

They shared this amusing moment on social media with the caption, “Keh diya na! Bas!! keh diya 25th December #TuMeriMainTeraMainTeraTuMeri (sic).”

Ananya’s Family Connection to KBC

During the episode, Ananya talked about how her appearance on the show might stem from her family’s long-standing obsession with “Kaun Banega Crorepati,” which has been a staple since its inception in 2000. She revealed, “When my grandparents come from Delhi, we have a special ritual at home that from Monday to Friday, we sit with them and watch KBC. The whole family sits together and watches the show.”

When Amitabh chimed in, asking, “And when do they leave?” Ananya quickly responded, “No, I watch it.”

She added, “I think it wasn’t just my dream; it was the collective dream of the Panday family that at least one person should go to Kaun Banega Crorepati, and luckily, I was the first, and I made it.”

For those who may not know, “Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri” is the second project featuring Kartik and Ananya together, following their 2019 film “Pati Patni Aur Woh.”

Hollywood actress Kate Winslet has opened up about the challenges she faced while making her directorial debut, ‘Goodbye June.’

The film is penned by her son, Joe Anders. Initially, Winslet planned only to star in and produce the project. However, when the opportunity to direct arose, she hesitated, expressing that she “cannot do three jobs.”

“I know I’m good at multitasking, but this is too many things,” she shared with Digi Spy. Winslet mentioned that she even compiled a list of potential actors who could brilliantly take on the role she was facing.

However, she quickly realized the situation was more complex. “Well, first of all, Netflix was like, ‘Uh-uh,’ and secondly, I’d cast all these incredible actors. How could I not go and play with them? Because that’s what we do. We play, we pretend, and it’s an amazing thing,” she explained.

‘Goodbye June’ tells the story of four adult siblings and their father as they navigate family dynamics amidst their mother’s declining health. Winslet stars as Julia, one of June’s children, while Helen Mirren plays the matriarch, June.

“It might sound a bit sickly, but we had to really become a family to make it feel as real and relatable as possible. You can’t just show up and do the job and go home again; it becomes something else. We were lucky on this film that that really happened,” she added.

Alongside Winslet and Mirren, ‘Goodbye June’ features a talented cast including Toni Collette, Johnny Flynn, Andrea Riseborough, Timothy Spall, Stephen Merchant, Fisayo Akinade, Jeremy Swift, and Raza Jaffrey.

The film is scheduled to premiere on Netflix on December 24, 2025.

Veteran actor Anupam Kher recently recalled his first encounter with actress Kareena Kapoor when they unexpectedly crossed paths during a flight.

Nostalgic Memories

Sharing a couple of photos from their surprise meeting, Kher reminisced about their initial interaction back in 2000 on the set of her debut film “Refugee.” He described Kareena as a beautiful and confident girl determined to make her mark in the industry.

Taking to his official Instagram, Kher shared, “IN FLIGHT WITH KAREENA: First time I met #Bebo was on the sets of JP Dutta’s #Refugee! Year was 2000! And it was her debut film. She was stunningly beautiful, confident yet vulnerable, restless to make it big (which she did) and amazingly real as a person! (sic).”

A Celebration of Growth

Over the years, Kher has witnessed Kareena evolve into an elegant actress who remains eager for challenging roles, even after 25 years in Bollywood.

“Yesterday, we were on the same flight! We chatted about lots of things. 25 years later, I was delightfully happy to find that she is hungry for great roles, remains a beautiful person who still is real and loves conversations,” Kher remarked.

He also noted that Kareena still looks the same after all these years.

A Heartfelt Note

In his heartfelt social media message, he added, “Thank you dearest #Kareena for your warmth and appreciation! Yes! I do look the same in all these years. May God keep you and your family happy and healthy! Love and prayers always. #Diva Actor @kareenakapoorkhan.”

Kher and Kareena, apart from their collaboration in “Refugee,” also worked together in the 2014 film “The Shaukeens,” which featured Annu Kapoor, Piyush Mishra, Lisa Haydon, and Akshay Kumar.

Actress Shraddha Kapoor has shared her wish to enjoy a coffee with the Bollywood icon, Amitabh Bachchan.

During a recent episode of the popular reality game show “Kaun Banega Crorepati,” Big B encountered a contestant who claimed to be a dedicated fan of Shraddha. The contestant even expressed his desire to go on a date with the ‘Stree’ actress. Amitabh kindly offered to relay the proposal to Shraddha while humorously warning the contestant about her father, the well-known Shakti Kapoor.

In a sweet gesture, Amitabh made an appeal to Shraddha on behalf of the contestant. Shraddha reposted a clip of this interaction on her Instagram Stories, cheekily stating that she would like Big B to have coffee with her first. She wrote, “@amitabhbachchan Sir, since I’m your biggest fan, sabse pehle aap mere saath coffee piyo (sic).”

Shraddha praised Amitabh for his hosting talents, saying, “You can make everything classy, dignified, and beautiful. Best host in the world.”

To jog your memory, Shraddha had the opportunity to share screen space with Amitabh back in 2010 in the action thriller “Teen Patti,” which also featured Ben Kingsley, R. Madhavan, and Raima Sen. This film marked Shraddha’s debut.

On the work front, Shraddha is set to return to screens in the much-anticipated third installment of her popular franchise “Stree,” expected to hit theaters by August 2027. Additionally, she will star in the upcoming biopic titled “Eetha,” which chronicles the journey of the legendary Marathi folk artist Vithabai Narayangaonkar.

Moreover, Shraddha has another intriguing project in the pipeline named “Nagin,” which is backed by Nikhil Dwivedi.

As the festive season approaches, actress Shamita Shetty is busy decorating her home for Christmas. She has some little helpers in the form of her beloved pets.

In a video shared on her Instagram, Shamita can be seen diligently working on her Christmas tree with her pet cats by her side. The clip showcases a beautifully decorated tree adorned with colorful ornaments, vibrant flowers, and twinkling fairy lights.

In her post, Shamita wished the couple a lifetime of “peace and happiness,” writing: “Happy Anniversary love birds ❤️🎀👁️‍🗨️🤗 wishing you a lifetime of peace and happiness always ❤️👁️‍🗨️.”

Shilpa, in turn, entertained her followers with a humorous video on their anniversary. In the clip, Raj casually asks Shilpa if they should go out to celebrate. Excited about the idea, Shilpa quickly gets ready, only for Raj to guide her to the front door and spin her around right at the entrance of their home.

Actress Nora Fatehi was involved in a car accident on Saturday when a drunk driver collided with her vehicle.

She has reassured her supporters that she is alive and well, despite sustaining some minor injuries.

In a video posted to her Instagram Stories, Nora said, “Hey guys, I’m just coming here to tell you that I am okay. Yes, I was in a really serious car accident. A drunk person that was driving under the influence smashed my car, and unfortunately, the impact was quite severe and it flung me across the car. I bashed my head on the window.”

Nora expressed her strong disapproval of drunk driving, stating, “I’m alive, and I’m well. Except for some minor injuries, swelling, and a slight concussion, I’m okay. I’m grateful for that. That could have ended terribly, but I came to say this to emphasize why you should not drink and drive.”

She mentioned that she does not promote or condone substance abuse and highlighted its negative effects on others. “I hate alcohol to begin with. In fact, I am not someone who has ever liked the idea of alcohol or anything like that, such as drugs, weed, anything that puts you in a different state of mind… It is not something I promote or even enjoy being around,” Nora pointed out.

Urging others to prioritize safety, she added, “You should not drink and drive. It’s 2025. I cannot believe that this is even a conversation. I can’t believe that this is even a scenario that has to happen. At 3 p.m. in the afternoon, I could never imagine someone would be driving under the influence and putting people in harm’s way. Having said that, I just want to let everyone know I’m okay. I’m going to be suffering from pain for some time, but, thank God I am alive.”

Nora also admitted that the incident has left her feeling terrified.

She added a text overlay to the video that humorously stated, “Hair and make-up were going great until Bollywood happened.”

Emergency Situation

In a vlog on her YouTube channel, Bharti detailed how her water broke unexpectedly early that morning.

My clothes are wet, my bedsheet is wet, and we are heading to the hospital. I don’t know what will happen next—to me or Harssh. I wanted to share my feelings with you. Please pray that everything is fine,” she added.

In the video, her husband Harssh is seen rushing her to the hospital, accompanied by their elder son, Gola, also known as Lakshy.
