Bollywood actor Arya Banerjee, who acted in film like Love Sex Aur Dhoka and The Dirty Picture, was found dead at her Kolkata home on Friday. The 33-year old’s body was found lying in the bedroom by the police who broke the door open after being called by Banerjee’s domestic help. She got suspicious as the actor was not responding to door bells and phone calls since morning. Her house help said the actress was living alone and mostly kept to herself.

Banerjee was daughter of late sitarist Nikhil Bandyopadhyay and acted in a couple of critically acclaimed movies. She played the role of adult star Shakeela in The Tirty Picture. Banerjee also acted in Dibakar Banerjee’s 2010 movie Love Sex Aur Dhokha. Banerjee had a Master’s degree in classical music and learnt the craft of acting from Anupam Kher’s acting school. She had also done several assignments in Mumbai before taking up acting offers.

The body is been sent for forensic examination to determine the cause of her death. Forensic samples have also been collected from her room by team of experts.

Actor Bidita Bag took to micro-blogging platform Twitter to pay tribute to her former roommate. Bag revealed she shared the room with the actor in her early modelling days on an outstation project. She said she was senior to her and a famous model in Kolkata at that point of time. Bag said Banerjee used to pamper her a lot during her shooting days. She said Banerjee would dance and sing like a rockstar and amazed her with her dancing and acting skills in LSD and The Dirty Picture.

Bollywood stars Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh welcomed their first, baby girl, on Sunday at Mumbai’s HN Reliance Hospital, as per the report. The arrival of the healthy baby marks a significant new chapter in the lives of Deepika and Ranveer Singh.

The couple, accompanied by their family members, were spotted arriving at the hospital on Sunday, with photographers being unable to capture clear pictures as they remained inside their curtained car. Their family members followed suit soon after their arrival.

In preparation for the baby’s arrival, the duo visited the iconic Siddhivinayak Temple in Mumbai on Friday, seeking blessings from Lord Ganesha ahead of Ganesh Chaturthi. Images and videos of Deepika in a green-colored saree with a baby bump went viral on social media.

The couple announced their pregnancy in February this year through a joint post signifying “September 2024” with adorable motifs of baby clothes, shoes, and balloons. They also shared pictures from their maternity photoshoot, showing a radiant Deepika flaunting her baby bump with Ranveer by her side.

Reports suggest that the couple might embark on this new journey in a new residence. It is rumored that Deepika and Ranveer may move into a luxurious apartment in Bandra, near superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s bungalow, Mannat. The apartment will comprise floors 16 to 19 with a private terrace once construction is complete.

Known for keeping their relationship private, Deepika and Ranveer started dating in 2013 on the set of “Goliyon Ki Rasleela: Ram-Leela” and tied the knot at Lake Como, Italy, in 2018, in an intimate ceremony with close friends and family in attendance.

Deepika Padukone’s most recent appearance in the Prabhas-starrer “Kalki 2898 AD” became the biggest blockbuster of 2024. Her upcoming project includes Rohit Shetty’s “Singham Again,” alongside husband Ranveer Singh, scheduled to release on Diwali this year.

Akshay Kumar reveals receiving condolence messages after his films flop, says still alive

Films like Sarfira, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, Mission Raniganj, Selfiee, Raksha Bandhan, Samrat Prithviraj, and Bachchhan Paandey were not hits.

Akshay Kumar, a Bollywood actor, made a statement on Friday addressing recent box office failures saying it is ridiculous that people are writing sympathetic messages expressing how they feel sorry for me just because my recent film did not perform well in theaters. He added that he is not bothered by such remarks and will continue to do his work as he has done for three decades.

Films like Sarfira, Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, Mission Raniganj, Selfiee, Raksha Bandhan, Samrat Prithviraj, and Bachchhan Paandey were not hits.

Showing his positive attitude, he added, “Whatever happens in life happens for a better and bigger reason. Yes, my four or five films have not done well, so what? People are sending sympathetic messages like ‘Don’t worry’ and ‘It will be okay,’ but why?”

He also mentioned a journalist who wrote about his comeback, saying, “I called him up and inquired what ‘back’ even means. I have not gone anywhere; I am still here working on my next film.” Kumar conveyed this message to reporters at the trailer launch of Khel Khel Mein.

At the age of 56, the actor declared, “I am here, and I will continue to work. I don’t heed what presumptions and assumptions people make about me. I wake up with a productive mindset, exercise, go to work, and what I make, I do on my own. I don’t owe anything to anyone.”

Mudassar Aziz, known for directing Happy Bhag Jayegi and Pati Patni Aur Woh, is behind the comedy-drama Khel Khel Mein, which is set to compete at the box office with two other Hindi films: John Abraham’s Vedaa and Stree 2, releasing on August 15. Despite the competition, Aziz expressed his support for all the films, emphasizing a collaborative spirit within the Hindi film industry.

He stated, “We all belong to the same industry, I don’t see it as a competition. I have admiration for Amar Kaushik’s work (director of Stree 2) . I genuinely hope both of our films are a success at the box office.”

Aziz highlighted the importance of collective success for the industry, saying, “When a festive weekend arrives, it’s a chance to encourage audiences to visit cinemas. In Khel KhelMein, I’ve even included a nod to Stree as a way of saying, ‘Let’s make this a successful weekend for Hindi cinema .’

Khel Khel Mein is produced by Bhushan Kumar, Krishan Kumar, Vipul D Shah, Ashwin Varde, Rajesh Bahl, Shashikant Sinha, and Ajay Rai.
