Aditya Pancholi seeks quashing of Rape FIR; Next hearing on Feb 24

Veteran Bollywood actor Aditya Pancholi returned to the spotlight on Thursday as the Bombay High Court took up his petition to quash a 2019 rape FIR lodged against him at the Versova Police Station in Mumbai. The case involves allegations made by a female Bollywood actress. Pancholi’s legal team, led by advocate Prashant Patil, urged the court to dismiss the FIR on grounds that it was filed many years after the alleged incident, describing the complaint as “malicious” and lacking in timely evidence. The plea cited legal precedent, notably the Supreme Court’s Bhajanlal judgment,  which allows quashing of criminal proceedings under specific circumstances. During Thursday’s hearing, the defence also presented a recording of a meeting prior to the FIR being filed, which they claim demonstrates “wrongful intention” behind the complaint. The court noted the submission but did not rule on its admissibility, opting instead to focus on procedural matters at this stage. A key point raised ...

Gurmeet Choudhary offers financial help to Rajpal Yadav in cheque-bounce case: "It is heart-breaking to see an actor of Rajpal ji's seniority behind bars"

After reading about the very talented comic actor Rajpal Yadav’s poignant proclamation in a publication that he has no friends in the film industry, actor Gurmeet Chowdhary has come forward to offer financial aid to the incarcerated actor in the cheque-bounce case. Said Gurmeet, “It is heart-breaking to see an actor of Rajpal ji’s seniority behind bars for such an offence when white collar criminals get away with siphoning millions. I am going to do all I can to help Rajpal ji financially. I also urge my colleagues in the film industry to come forward to help one of their troubled colleagues. Rajpal ji has given so much to our entertainment industry. He doesn’t deserve this.” Last week, before surrendering to Tihar Jail in the check-bounce case, Rajpal Yadav told this writer, “Sir, kya karoon? Mere paas paise nahin hain (sir, what to do? I don’t have the money to pay back). Aur koi upaay nahin dikhta (can’t see another way out).” When Yadav was asked whether his rich friends from th...

Janhvi Kapoor to star in Tamil web series helmed by Pa Ranjith

Janhvi Kapoor is gradually making inroads into the South. While she is being paid much more in Telugu cinema than what she gets in Bollywood, she is now trying to conquer the Tamil arena as well. One hears Janhvi has inked a deal for a web series in Tamil with Netflix for an impressive fee (approximately Rs. 20 crores). The series, a female-oriented subject, is being directed by the popular Pa Ranjith, who directed Rajinikanth in the two back-to-back releases Kabali and Kaala. For her latest Telugu outing Peddi, co-starring Ram Charan, Janhvi has been paid around Rs. 14 crores, which makes her the highest paid Telugu actress of all times. How did this happen? It started with Devara in 2024 when she was offered the heroine’s part. Initially, Janhvi rejected the offer as she didn’t want to go regional, as it would impact her Hindi career. It was her father producer Boney Kapoor who insisted she do the film...
