    BREAKING: Baburao returns; Paresh Rawal reveals that Hera Pheri 3 issue has been resolved : Bollywood News

    Paresh Rawal has been in the news ever since Bollywood Hungama broke the year’s viral story on May 16 that he has quit Hera Pheri 3. Consequently, Akshay Kumar sent a legal notice to the veteran actor seeking damages. But now, it has come to light that the issues have been resolved. Moreover, it has come straight from the horse’s mouth.

    BREAKING: Baburao returns; Paresh Rawal reveals that Hera Pheri 3 issue has been resolved

    In a podcast with Himanshu Mehta, Paresh Rawal was asked about the Hera Pheri 3 controversy. He began by saying, “There’s no controversy. I believe that when people have loved something so much, then you have to be extra careful. It is our responsibility toward the audience. The audience has given you so much adulation. You can’t take things for granted. Mehnat karke unko (film) do.”

    He added, “So, I was of the opinion that sab saath mein aaye, mehnat karein. Aur kuch nahin. It is all resolved now.”

    When the host re-confirmed whether all was well now, Paresh Rawal replied in the affirmative and further said, “Pehle bhi aane hi waali thi but it’s just that we had to fine-tune ourselves (laughs). After all, all of them are creative, be it Priyadarshan, Akshay or Suniel. They are friends for many, many, many years.”

    How it began

    On May 16, when Bollywood Hungama exclusively asked Paresh Rawal if he had quit Hera Pheri 3, he said, “Yes, it’s a fact.” As a result, Akshay Kumar’s Cape of Good Films, the producer of Hera Pheri 3, sued Paresh Rawal for Rs. 25 crores. The legal team of Akshay Kumar also gave out a statement, explaining their woes. Bollywood Hungama then revealed in another viral story that Paresh Rawal returned the signing amount of Rs 11 lakhs with 15% p.a. interest and also a little more money for stepping away from the series.

    A source had told us then, “Paresh Rawal was paid Rs. 11 lakhs as a signing amount as per the term sheet. His total fees were locked at Rs. 15 crores. The term sheet mentioned that Paresh Rawal would receive the balance amount – Rs. 14.89 crores – only one month after the release of the film. The senior actor had reservations about this clause. Also, the film’s principal shoot was to commence sometime next year. This means that Hera Pheri 3 was unlikely to be released before late 2026 or in the year 2027. In short, Paresh would have had to wait for nearly two years to get the rest of his acting fees.”

    Later, at Housefull 5 trailer launch, Akshay Kumar revealed, “I don’t think this is a place where I am going to talk about it because…it’s a very serious matter. It is a matter which is going to be handled by the courts. Hence, I don’t think I am going to speak about it here.”

    Akshay won hearts when a journalist happened to mention that a lot of fans felt that Paresh Rawal was foolish to leave the project. On this, Akshay Kumar said, “Firstly, I’d like to tell you that using such kind of word for my co-star, ‘foolish’, is something I’d not appreciate. That’s not right. I have been working with him for the last 32 years. We are very good friends. He’s a great actor. I really admire him.”

  • KANNAPPA triumphs with its mythological appeal

    Kannappa Review {3.0/5} & Review Rating

    Star Cast: Vishnu Manchu, Preity Mukhundhan, Akshay Kumar, Prabhas, Mohanlal, Kajal Aggarwal

    Director: Mukesh Kumar Singh

    Kannappa Movie Review Synopsis:
    KANNAPPA is the story of valour and belief. The film is set in the 2nd century. Thinnadu (Vishnu Manchu) lives in a hamlet, ruled by his father Nathanatha (R Sarath Kumar). As a child, Thinnadu lost interest in God after his friend was sacrificed to stop an illness from plaguing the village. One day, while he is on a hunting expedition, Thinnadu comes across Nemali (Preity Mukhundhan). She belongs to the neighbouring tribe and falls for her. She too falls in love with him despite the fact that she is a staunch Lord Shiva devotee. Meanwhile, a dreaded warrior, Kalamukha (Arpit Ranka) sends his brother and some soldiers to Vayulingam with bad intentions. The brother and the soldiers attempt to kidnap and violate the women of Thinnadu’s helmet. Thinnadu kills them. Before dying, the brother warns that his brother will arrive with his army of one lakh people and attack his hamlet and also the neighbouring villages. Nathanatha summons the chiefs of the nearby hamlets in the forest and asks them to put aside their differences and unite for a common cause. Thinnadu is chosen to lead the alliance. But his non-religious beliefs create a dent. What happens next forms the rest of the film.

    Kannappa Movie Story Review:
    Vishnu Manchu’s story has its roots in mythology. Vishnu Manchu’s screenplay is stretched and inconsistent. But overall, it works especially due to the climax. Akella Shiva Prasad’s dialogues are deep and easy to decipher.

    Mukesh Kumar Singh’s direction is simple and mass-appealing. The characters are well introduced and the conflict has substance. Moreover, the transformation of the protagonist from an atheist to a true devotee is heartening and more importantly, convincing. The various cameos further add to the appeal and also star value. The director, however, reserves the best for the climax. The last 15 minutes is when the film reaches dizzying heights and will give goosebumps.

    On the flipside, the film has a run time of 181 minutes and hence, it’s too lengthy. Ideally, it should have been shorter by 15 minutes. The film doesn’t follow the conventional approach. The villain track culminates earlier than expected. As a result, one might wonder in the second half where the film is heading. The first half is just alright and the romance track before the intermission gives a strong déjà vu of Prabhas-Tamannaah Bhatia track in BAAHUBALI [2015].

    Kannappa Movie Review Performances:
    Vishnu Manchu puts his heart and soul into the character and delivers a very impressive performance. Akshay Kumar is the divine surprise of the film. As Lord Shiva, he’s flawless. Hindi-speaking audiences will be proud to see an actor from their market being given such a role to essay that too by South makers. The makers could have chosen any actor from the South industries for it but they went ahead with Akshay and that speaks volumes. Prabhas (Rudra) comes next and makes his presence felt. Mohanlal (Kirata) and Mohan Babu (Mahadev Shastri) lend able support. Kajal Aggarwal (Parvati) gets into the skin of her character. Preity Mukhundhan looks stunning and delivers a worthy performance. It’s a performance that will surely get her noticed. R Sarath Kumar is impressive. Arpit Ranka and Lavi Pajni (Bebbuli) are over the top. Brahmanandam (Pilaka) is wasted. Aiswaryaa Bhaskaran (Maremma) has a tremendous screen presence while Mukesh Rishi (Kampa) is decent. Madhoo (Pannaga) puts her best foot forward but gets sidelined after a point.

    Kannappa movie music and other technical aspects:
    The romantic songs fail to entice. ‘Om Namah Shivaya’ is exhilarating while ‘Shiva Shiva Shankaraa’ is well picturized. It also comes at a crucial juncture. Stephen Devassy’s background score has a cinematic appeal.

    Sheldon Chau’s cinematography is breathtaking. The locales of New Zealand are well captured. In a few scenes, one does get a feeling that the shooting location is not based in India. Nevertheless, it works as it is unlike one has seen in any Indian film in a long time. Chinna’s production design is authentic while Ajay’s costumes are appropriate. Kecha Khamphakdee’s action is not too gory. The VFX is fine overall, although it could have been a bit classier in some scenes. Anthony Gonsalves’s editing is slugging in places.

    Kannappa Movie Review Conclusion:
    On the whole, KANNAPPA triumphs largely due to its mythological appeal and a goosebumps-inducing final 20 minutes. The lead performances are exemplary, with Akshay Kumar standing out as one of the film’s biggest strengths. His impactful presence as a prominent North Indian actor in a South-led ensemble is sure to evoke a sense of pride among Hindi-speaking audiences. While the film’s lengthy runtime and the relatively low pre-release buzz in the Hindi belt are minor drawbacks, the film holds the potential to surprise, provided it garners strong word of mouth.

    With a net worth of over USD 220 billion and rising, Jeff Bezos knows how to throw a party. So when it comes to his wedding, we expect nothing less from the businessman who is all set to exchange vows with his lady love on June 27. A lavish affair in Venice, here’s who we spotted taking a water taxi to the grand venue, dressed in style, including the Kardashian-Jenners, Bill Gates, alongside the bride and the groom.

    Jeff Bezos-Lauren Sanchez Wedding Guests

    Following a welcome party that was said to have been washed out by a thunderstorm, the invitees of what is one of the most anticipated nuptials of the year are out and about for the second day. Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez are set to be married on this day, and their friends and associates stepped out to support them for a new start. 

    It is known that Bill Gates would be one of the many attendees, including US footballer Tom Brady, Sam Altman, Usher with wife Jennifer Goicoechea, Oprah Winfrey, singer Ellie Gounglding, model Brooks Nader, Queen Rania Al-Yasin of Jordan, Kris Jenner and Corey Gamble, and more, who were also spotted. Actor Orlando Bloom is all set to make a solo appearance after his recent split from Katy Perry, and was spotted getting cozy with a mysterious woman previously.

    First and foremost, the bride and the groom were spotted leaving to go to the island of San Giorgio Maggiore on the boats. They were snapped waving to tourists, locals, fellow guests, paparazzi, and other onlookers while on their way to get married.

    The couple’s friends followed suit with Leonardo DiCaprio and girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti making another loved-up appearance. The Wolf of the Wall Street actor sought to keep it low-key once again, shying away from the cameras with a black cap covering his face. However, his tailored suit and lady love in arm could not be missed as she dressed to the nines for the event.

    Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump, acquaintances of the couple, were snapped making their way to the venue after reported issues the previous day. The daughter of Donald Trump and her husband made a beeline for stepping into the vehicle to drive off to the spot of the wedding.

    Kim Kardashian and Khloé Kardashian were seen enjoying themselves, waving to the lenses and snapping away selfies on their phones. Dripping in high-end clothing and jewellery, the two sisters added the glitz to the function.

    Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner were not ones to back down either as the sisters put their most fashionable feet forward. Very on brand witn their styles they chatted away while being ferried to the wedding location.

  • Philadelphia’s schools accused of failing to properly inspect asbestos in buildings

    PHILADELPHIA — Federal prosecutors on Thursday charged Philadelphia’s public schools with failing to properly inspect eight schools for damaged asbestos. The district agreed to have the criminal case deferred while it pays for a court supervised monitor to keep tabs on its response.

    Prosecutors said it was the first time a school district in the U.S. has faced such environmental criminal allegations.

    The district is charged with eight counts of violating the federal Toxic Substances Control Act for allegedly failing to perform inspections in a timely manner during a recent five-year period.

    Authorities said a judge must approve the terms of the deferred prosecution agreement, which avoids a grand jury indictment. If the school district complies with the relevant federal law, the government can eventually drop the charges.

    About 300 of the school district’s aging set of 339 buildings contain asbestos, the U.S. attorney’s office said in a release.

    Asbestos, a construction material in wide use until the 1980s, has been linked to cancer and lung disease.

    Investigators said some asbestos was improperly addressed and that schools have had to close as a result of asbestos problems. Prosecutors said the “longstanding and widespread problem” put students and teachers in danger.

    The deferred prosecution agreement says the school system has already improved policies, procedures and compliance regarding asbestos inspections and abatement.

    Superintendent Tony B. Watlington Sr. told The Philadelphia Inquirer the deferred prosecution agreement is a sign of the district’s progress in addressing the problem. He noted the district will train workers on asbestos management as part of the deal.
