How do you act out fear? Sometimes by living it. That was the case for actor Shanaya Kapoor during the shoot of her survival thriller 

, a film that pushed her to confront some of her deepest anxieties. Co-starring Adarsh Gourav, the project required its actors to inhabit moments of genuine distress, rather than merely simulate them for the camera.

For filmmaker Bejoy Nambiar, “creating discomfort” was central to his film’s survival-thriller narrative, quite literally throwing his cast in the deep end. 

The approach proved especially demanding for Kapoor, who was navigating multiple personal fears while filming. 

“She has a fear of heights and closed spaces, being underwater, and she had to [experience] all those things for extended periods of time,” Nambiar tells 

. “She had to really overcome all of that, and not once did she complain.”

That resolve held until the final day of the shoot, when director Bejoy Nambiar says Kapoor "broke down" and filming was immediately halted. 

Recalling the sequence, Kapoor describes an underwater scene that pushed her to a breaking point after her leg got stuck. Enclosed beneath the water, surrounded by darkness, she says she felt unable to surface on the third take, with Gourav and the camera positioned behind her.

"Those two seconds underwater felt like two minutes. I couldn't exit; I felt trapped. So when I came out, I just started crying!" Kapoor said.

The physical demands of the film weren’t limited to a single sequence. Both actors spent long hours in freezing cold water, with little reprieve. “We had to be submerged in the water for long hours,” Gourav says, adding that they would only get out of the pool for lunch breaks.

Born at the evergreen DC-10 Ibiza as an after-party property that rewired the way the Island partied on Mondays over two decades ago, Circoloco has evolved into one of the most popular institutions in global underground music. Its red insignia signals a certain promise: long sets along with uncompromising curation.

After several successful stops outside of Ibiza, namely Amsterdam, Thailand, London and NYC, to name a few, the party is set to land in Mumbai at the Jio World Garden on 19th April 2026. Presented by Kingfisher Ultra and produced by Sound Simplify in collaboration with Xora and District, the show marks yet another entry of a global marquee festival in India. Circoloco’s expansions tend to be deliberate, landing only in markets where there is already a developed audience for underground house and techno. Its presence in Mumbai further signals confidence in the city’s scale and the growing maturity of its listeners.

The lineup underlines the intent. Marco Carola, a long-time Circoloco regular, anchors the bill with his signature groovy tech sound that helped define Ibiza’s modern club scene. He’s joined by Michael Bibi, whose Solid Grooves movement has become one of the most influential forces in modern-house music, along with Chris Stussy, part of the new guard pushing stripped-back, club-focused house music. Mau P adds to the bill, bringing commercial appeal, while Jamback adds a younger name to the lineup. 

Over the last few years, India’s electronic music market has matured quickly, arguably the fastest out of other genres, considering the roots have always settled in India. International properties such as Boiler Room, DGTL and Zamna have established recurring footprints here, drawing consistent crowds and signalling demand that extends well beyond metro nightlife. For global promoters and booking agencies, India is increasingly being routed into touring calendars rather than treated as an add-on.

While the lineup looks exciting, hosting an outdoor event of this scale in the middle of the scorching summer heat is going to be a challenge of its own. But the entry of Circoloco in India signals a definite belief in the country’s ability to show up for global IPs.

Ahead of its release, the upcoming thriller and “creature feature” 

—starring Adarsh Gourav and Shanaya Kapoor—continues to build momentum, particularly for its distinct premise.  But the film has also attracted speculation about its origins—specifically, questions around whether the plot draws from the 2018 Thai thriller 

follows two influencers—Maruti, played by Gourav, and Avani Shah (Miss Vanity), played by Kapoor—who find themselves trapped in a deadly fight for survival when a crocodile shows up in a pool. In a conversation with 

, director Bejoy Nambiar addresses these concerns head-on, dismissing lazy claims that the film is a "copy".

“It’s an official adaptation of the Thai film, 

, which came out in 2018,” Nambiar says, in response to the chatter. Despite rumours suggesting otherwise, the director reiterates that the adaptation has been formally acknowledged. “We have mentioned it everywhere, but I don’t know how people don’t read the credit slate,” he adds.

credits Himanshu Sharma for the story, with screenplay and dialogues by Abhishek Arun Bandekar. The makers have also credited the original helmer, Ping Lumpraploeng, for the film's official adaptation. 

is far from a scene-by-scene remake, Nambiar stresses, and adds that the writing team has “completely reimagined it,” calling the Hindi version “poles apart” from its source material. 

"I don't know why people don't read the credit slate. They just bashed us by claiming we were copying stuff, but we didn't!" the filmmaker says. In fact, in a move that feels almost radical in an age of frame-by-frame remakes, Nambiar chose to keep his distance from the original film altogether. 

“I made it a point not to watch the original,” he says. The same rule applied to his cast. Adarsh Gourav and Shanaya Kapoor both stepped into physically and emotionally demanding roles without having watched the film as well. Nambiar says the team was more inclined to  “come up with something new, since they don’t know the source material.”

"The basic idea of two people stuck in a pool and a crocodile is, of course, from the Thai film. But everything else that happens with the two characters when they are trying to survive is our original. Which is why I am sure our version will stand on its own," the filmmaker adds.

The film is set for a theatrical release on February 13.

That of Rannvijay Singh and the antagonist, Aziz.

"I can't wait to get back on set with Sandeep and to play this character and now another character. Because it's a continuing story, he had the story of part two very clear in his mind while filming part one itself. So, it's very inspiring for me as an actor. Sandeep and I keep chatting with each other through the week or month and keep discussing different ideas. I really can't wait to get back to playing Ranvijay and Aziz," Kapoor added.

“Happy to share that we have been blessed with a baby boy and girl. Having two daughters and a son fills us with immense gratitude. The women in our lives have been our greatest strength.

Addressing the press at the hospital, Telugu screen icon Chiranjeevi, the father of Ram Charan, thanked fans for their wishes. "Thank you all for your warm wishes.

Both the Konidela and Kamineni families wish to express our shared joy through the media," he said.

 has been swirling online in recent weeks, prompting intense curiosity about whether the two are more than friends. In an exclusive conversation with 

, the singer-musician addressed the dating rumours head-on, speaking with rare candour about the attention, the assumptions, and why he is choosing not to be pressured into defining the equation.

The speculation reached a fever pitch just last week after the two were seen walking hand-in-hand at Lollapalooza in Mumbai, following his surprise performance alongside international artist Kehlani. 

This public appearance came on the heels of a leaked video of the two at the wedding of Nupur Sanon and Stebin Ben, which revealed Talwiinder’s face without his usual disguise—an identity he has guarded since 2018 to ensure the focus remains on his craft. 

The artist, known for being fiercely protective of his personal life, addressed the dating speculation by explaining that the attention took him by surprise. “We had only just met each other right before the (Nupur Sanon and Stebin Ben) wedding, so all of this attention caught us off guard,” he said.

Talwiinder stressed that neither he nor Patani wants to be pushed into defining anything under public scrutiny, adding that both are currently in a phase of self-discovery. 

“We don’t want to give in to the pressure or the rumours. It is what it is. We’re still discovering ourselves, still figuring ourselves. I’ll just leave it at that.  Because if they are trying to spread the rumours, I'm going to let the rumours be rumours."

Talwiinder also reflected on an earlier comment, in which he had said that he could think about love and relationships if he weren't the musician he is for the audience.  Asked whether that stance had evolved, Talwiinder laughed and said, “If you remember, I’d also said that I fall in love every day. So I guess I’m falling in love right now.”

 has lived a double life by design. The singer, known for hits like 

 has built a career behind his signature mask, an attempt to maintain the sanctity of his craft, and protect his identity. However, that carefully guarded privacy was recently violated. Recently, a leaked video from Nupur Sanon and Stebin Ben’s wedding, showing Talwiinder unmasked, went viral, risking the very persona he has spent nearly a decade building.

, he didn’t hide his disappointment. "I woke up to the video, I saw my face everywhere," he says. "I was not in the right state of mind when I saw it, I felt like [my face] was snatched away from me. My world turned upside down." The leak resulted in an onslaught of comments, shares, and posts, with his face spreading across the Internet like wildfire. "You're seeing people making content on it," he adds. To the person responsible, his message is blunt: "For the person who gave the video to the media, for, what, for ₹5,000, ₹10,000, ₹20,000, ₹50,000? You literally just killed someone’s dream."

Talwiinder maintains that his music is “made for the ears, not the eyes,” and he does not wish to detract from his audience’s experience. “I’m making music for people to feel,” he says. “Sometimes the visual can distract the audience from getting the message.” To him, the mask is a meticulously devised facet of his persona, one that spares him the constant pressure of "always looking fly" or being identified in public. It allows him the privilege of choosing when to face the world, and when to simply exist.

However, it is clear that Talwiinder isn't interested in playing the victim or rejecting the spotlight. He is acutely aware of his privilege, despite this breach. “What kind of artist complains about getting this much attention?” he asks, expressing a deep gratitude for the platform he has built. Addressing a media cycle that “hasn’t been kind”, he says he's finally made his peace with it all. "

(Everyone has to run their house)," he laughs. "It’s okay if I’m getting used in the process. As long as somebody’s getting views, they’re happy, I’m happy,” he says.

The artist is confident that those who follow him for his music are here to stay, despite the noise. “There’s so much love, I don’t even focus on the hate,” he smiles.

Having been in development for nearly three years, S.S. Rajamouli’s 

is already being hailed as his magnum opus. In addition to being one of the most expensive Indian films in history (with a whopping budget of ₹1,300 crore), the film will also be Priyanka Chopra Jonas’ comeback to Indian cinema after six years.

Having primarily focused on various Hollywood projects in recent years—such as 

—the actor mentioned in a recent interview that there was one thing she missed the most about working in Indian films: dance.

Talking about a conversation with Rajamouli before accepting the role of Mandakini, she told 

, "I was like, ‘I have one request. Can you make me dance? Please? Because I haven’t danced for so long.’”

And dance she did. In conversation with co-star Mahesh Babu, she joked, "I should not have asked, because we have been dancing. There’s a lot.” Mahesh Babu, who will play the role of Rudhra, revealed that the two have already shot for a song together, hinting that the track came about as a result of her request. 

Although the preparation for her dance sequences has been gruelling, Chopra Jonas has never shied away from a challenge. In light of the roaring success and virality of Rajamouli’s Oscar-winning track,

, the film has been highly anticipated among fans, largely as a result of the sheer scale of the production. It is said to be the first Indian film, as well as the first non-English film, to be shot in a 1.43:1 IMAX format. 

 has also generated significant interest among audiences because of its powerhouse star-cast, which also includes Prithviraj Sukumaran as Kumbha. While Chopra Jonas has recently begun shooting for the film in Hyderabad, details about the production remain under wraps.

Film-maker S S Rajamouli has firmly dismissed claims that the teaser for his upcoming film 

relied on generative artificial intelligence, calling such suggestions dismissive of the labour and skill involved in its creation.

The speculation followed the unveiling of a three-minute teaser last November in Hyderabad, where Rajamouli introduced the project to an audience of fans and international media. The visuals, which blended live-action elements with computer-generated imagery, were widely praised online, though some viewers questioned whether the imagery had been produced using AI tools.

Speaking shortly after the launch, Rajamouli said the accusation reflected a misunderstanding of both the process and the people behind the work. He described months of manual effort by a large team of artists, beginning with hand-drawn concept frames and continuing through an intensive rendering process.

According to the director, work on the teaser began in October, with artists labouring continuously until the days leading up to its release. Each frame, he said, required long hours of rendering, and the final weeks were marked by round-the-clock work. To attribute the result to artificial intelligence, he argued, undermines the creative and technical contribution of the artists involved.

While rejecting the idea that AI played a role in the teaser’s creation, Rajamouli did not dismiss the technology outright. He acknowledged that AI tools can be useful at an early, exploratory stage of filmmaking, particularly in accelerating basic processes or generating rough ideas.

However, he stressed that such tools remain supplementary rather than central to his approach. For Rajamouli, AI is comparable to an additional assistant, helpful in limited contexts but incapable of replacing human judgement, imagination, or craft.

The comments come at a time when debates over AI’s role in creative industries have intensified, with concerns ranging from authorship and originality to labour displacement. Rajamouli’s position places him among filmmakers who see value in technological assistance, while drawing a clear line between automation and artistry.

has learnt that Prime Video is gearing up to take 

back on floors, with the second season of the police procedural crime thriller—headlined by Sonakshi Sinha and Gulshan Devaiah and created by Zoya Akhtar and Reema Kagti—scheduled to begin filming in Rajasthan this month. 

While plot details are being kept firmly under wraps, the creators are said to have locked the script after an extended writing phase. “When the team cracked season two, they knew they had solid material in hand.  The script has been in place, and the team has been in active pre-production since last year," industry sources said.

Work on locations, logistics and production design has been quietly underway for months, with the project now ready to move into principal photography. Rajasthan, which played a key role in shaping the texture and setting of the first season, will once again serve as a primary shooting location.

According to sources, the streamer is also mounting the new season at scale, following the first season’s strong critical response. While no official announcement has been made yet, Sinha and Devaiah are expected to reprise their roles as the police officers at the centre of the series, which marked one of Prime Video India’s most celebrated originals on release. 

Further  details about the series and a launch window are being kept under wraps for now. Set against the backdrop of a small Rajasthani village, the first season followed Sinha and Devaiah in the role of determined cops tasked with unraveling the mystery of 27 missing women, suspected to be the work of a serial killer.

stood out for its tonal shift—a dark comedy that signals the streamer’s continued interest in female-led, genre-bending stories. From its first look, the film appears to operate in a space reminiscent of 

, the 2022 Netflix hit starring Alia Bhatt and Shefali Shah, where domestic tension, crime and dark humour intersect without diluting their edge.

Directed by Suresh Triveni, best known for 

brings together Madhuri Dixit, Triptii Dimri and Ravi Kishan for the first time. 

The story centres on Rekha and her daughters, Jaya and Sushma, who are already the subject of scrutiny in their conservative neighbourhood. When they find a dead body in their kitchen, the perpetually bickering trio is forced to collaborate on a cover-up, turning familial friction into a survival strategy.

Dixit’s casting marks another collaboration with Netflix following projects such as 

, and reinforces her recent pivot toward character-driven, contemporary storytelling. A defining presence of Hindi cinema for over three decades, Dixit has in recent years embraced streaming platforms to explore roles outside the traditional commercial framework. 

Dimri, meanwhile, continues her upward trajectory on Netflix after 

, performances that established her as a recurring face in the platform’s original film slate. Ravi Kishan, with his cross-industry presence in Hindi and Bhojpuri cinema, adds a disruptive energy to the ensemble.

The film is produced by Vikram Malhotra and Suresh Triveni, and backed by Abundantia Entertainment in association with Opening Image Films. The story is credited to Triveni and Pooja Tolani, with Tolani also handling the screenplay and dialogues.

Described by the makers as “unapologetically irreverent”, 

positions itself as a genre hybrid—familiar in its family setup, but deliberately unpredictable in execution. With Netflix supporting its offbeat tone, the film aims to deliver a dark comedy rooted in performance, tension and controlled chaos, rather than spectacle.
