Actress Rakul Preet Singh, who recently tied the knot with producer-actor Jackky Bhagnani, is amping up the glam quotient albeit with a bit of drama. On Wednesday, the actress took to her Instagram and shared a string of pictures of her latest look in her cream-coloured outfit.
In the picture, she can be seen donning a one-piece dress with intricate patterns. She tied her hair neatly in a bun, wore shimmery stilettos.
She wrote in the caption, “Drama only when we shoot”.
The actress tied the knot with Jackky Bhagnani on February 21 in Goa. It was a two-in-one wedding with two ceremonies – first, the ‘Anand Karaj’ in the Sikh tradition, and the second, a Sindhi-style ceremony – reflecting both Rakul and Jackky’s cultural backgrounds.
The intimate wedding was attended, among others, by her family and close friends, including Shilpa Shetty, Raj Kundra, Aditya Roy Kapoor, Ananya Panday, Arjun Kapoor and Bhumi Pednekar.

It was indeed a divine start for the newly-wed Rakul Preet Singh and Jackky Bhagnani as they were blessed with a prasad from Ayodhya’s Ram Mandir. And then came the sweet touch. Rakul Preet prepared ‘sooji ka halwa’ at her sasural for her ‘Chauka Chardhana’ ceremony, which signifies the bahu taken charge of the kitchen in the home of her in-laws.
Rakul Preet, who got married in Goa on February 21 to actor-producer Jackky Bhagnani, shared a picture of the prasad they have received from the Ram Mandir. The orange-coloured box of prasad includes a miniature of the temple, a silver coin and sweets.
The picture caption reads: “Blessed beyond measure to receive ‘prasadam’ from Ayodhya after our wedding! Truly a divine start to our journey together.”

The Night Manager (Disney+ Hotstar)
Sometimes the biggest of strategists can go wrong. The minds that decided to split writer-director Sandeep Modi’ s The Night Manger into two (messily amputated ) halves , have done the series a huge disservice.
Part 2, as it were, is a vegan’s delight. All the meat was in Part 1, and even the principal performances were more accentuated by the predominant emotions in the first-half. The second-half is all about nemesis. And not of the subtle variety.
There are no new revelations for us to chew on. We know Aditya Roy Kapoor’s Shaan Sengupta has infiltrated the antagonist arms dealer Shelly Rungta’s organization.
We saw in Part 1 that Shaan won the ruthless Rungta’s trust by staging his son’s kidnapping and rescue. Miraculously the little boy disappears in the second half.Maybe he got kidnapped again,this time for real, and we don’t know about it.

Gumraah
Starring Aditya Roy Kapoor, Mrunal Thakur
The trick of enjoying Gumraah is two-pronged: go with zero expectations, and if you haven’t seen the original Tamil film Thadam, you would be hooked to the story of identical twins (told apart in the Hindi version by one of them wearing printed shirts) who meet in a police station as prime crime accused after one of them snuffs out a wealthy suburban guy , apparently to steal his 20 lakhs.
But hang on! Nothing is as simple as it seems. Not that Gumraah revels in unnecessary complications. It is a neatly done, nominally engaging whodunit crime caper where the fun quotient remains uppermost. The topping never loses it tangy flavour, and that’s what keeps our interest-level perked up right till the end.
Oh, one more thing: unlike several recent crime thrillers that start off well and come to a deadend at the climax,...

Having someone who loves and understands you makes your life a better experience. When it comes to choosing your life partner, one must follow the heart. The recent Kiara Advani-Siddharth Malhotra wedding, and even Hardik Pandya and Natasha Stankovic renewing vows, made headlines. Celebrity weddings always gain a lot of attention. Actor Akashdeep Sabir, who was recently seen in the web series ‘The Night Manager’ co-starring Anil Kapoor and Aditya Roy Kapur, feels the media plays a huge role behind it.
“I think the media hyped it more than what people want to see. It’s just like any other destination marriage in India where marriages are really overdone. What’s nice is the coming together of two stars and we wish them happy times ahead,” Akashdeep talks about Sid-Kiara matrimony before adding, “The actors themselves want publicity most of the time. Who doesn’t? Invasion of privacy wouldn’t really apply here.

It was very different from Bollywood and any kind of Indian style, so I am excited to do something very different which has action in it too. This pushed me to go out of my comfort zone and, as an actor, I should never restrict myself.”
“More than proving to people that I can do something new, it was a challenge for myself.

Anil Kapoor has never been afraid of taking risks. The Indian film icon, amongst the best-known Bollywood stars in the West after starring in 24, Slumdog Millionaire and Mission: Impossible — Ghost Protocol, has always sought to blaze a trail, first by working in television well before it became acceptable for film stars in India to do so, and most recently by embracing projects for streaming platforms.
Kapoor’s latest endeavor is the Disney+ Hotstar streaming original limited series The Night Manager, which launched on the platform on Feb. 17. Created by Sandeep Modi, the spy drama is an adaptation of John le Carré’s 1993 novel of the same name. The series tells the story of Shaan Sengupta (Aditya Roy Kapur), an Indian intelligence operative who goes undercover as a hotel night manager at a luxury resort in Bangladesh to surveil arms dealer Shailendra “Shelly” Rungta (Kapoor).
