Oscars ban Will Smith for 10 years from attending ceremony

Will Smith and Chris Rock’s slapgate controversy is one of the most talked-about celebrity scandals of the year 2022 so far. Smith’s slap has already been tied to a conspiracy and left the world questioning the credibility of Will’s fit of anger.

If you have been on social media for the last 48 hours then you must be aware that Smith stormed the Oscar stage after Rock made an alopecia joke directed at Smith’s wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, who suffers from the hair-loss condition. Even though Smith apologized for his irrational behaviour at the Academy Awards but conspiracy theories have surfaced in the midst of the slap gate incident on March 27.

Claim

One conspiracy theory claims Rock was wearing a face pad when smith slapped him on stage. One of the tweets read, in 8k quality images you can see a pad on Chris Rock’s cheek, yeah conspiracy theorists gonna go crazy with this one.

One Facebook post says, if you think the slap was real, then why is Chris Rock wearing a prosthetic pad on his cheek? Plus his hands are behind his back and he leans forward. Fake fake fake. All for ratings, the post further read.

Fact Check

No pad can be seen on Chris’ face in the official photos from the 94th Academy Awards. Meanwhile, according to Gizmodo, there are two plausible options.

The first is that someone purposefully edited Rock’s face to make it look like he’s wearing a prosthesis. The other alternative, and perhaps the more likely one, is that someone used an artificial intelligence tool to edit the photo. Apps such as Remini allow users to scale up an image, but inexperienced users can often misunderstand how they work.

Zara Hatke Zara Bachke Movie Review: Sara Ali Khan, Vicky Kaushal film fails to land on fans expectations

The film uses the same humor and a regular storyline that is always there in Bollywood films.

Zara Hatke Zara Bachke poster Sara Ali Khan Vicky Kaushal

Laksham Utekar directorial, Zara Hatke Zara Bachke starring Sara Ali Khan and Vicky Kaushal releases today, June 2. The story of the movie revolves around, an Indore-based couple, who wants to live independently of their family and wants to take advantage of the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY), the government of India’s flagship programme, they seek a divorce.


Zara Hatke Zara Bachke is a typical Bollywood film that is pretty relatable to an Indian-middle-class family. Vicky Kaushal and Sara Ali play the two college sweethearts Kapil and Saumya, who are smitten with one another. After getting married, they stay with Kapil’s family, where they frequently run into family members and find it challenging to spend time romantically or even in seclusion. The son of his mother snoozes between the two. They don’t have any space to themselves in the cramped house, and the maternal aunt of Kapil is your standard family villain who nags Saumya whenever she gets the chance.


The film uses the same humor and a regular storyline that is always there in Bollywood films. Although the second half of the movie drags, the heartwarming end will change the entire plot upon which the movie is made. A love triangle is also shown, which adds to the chaotic trip.
At times, the entertainment factor wears us out and makes us bored.

The second portion of the story likewise appears to drag. However, Vicky Kaushal gives a good performance and pulls off the small-town penny-pinching gentleman role nicely. In contrast, Sara Ali Khan gives an honest performance as both a fiery Punjabi girl and a middle-class bahu. The supporting cast, which includes Harcharan Chawla, Inaamulhaq, Rakesh Bedi as Saumya’s father, Kanupirya Pandit as mama and mami, Neeraj Sood, and Akash Khurana as Kapil’s father, give solid performances. The cinematography by Raghav Ramadoss and the charming tunes by Sachin-Jigar perfectly depict Indore’s small-town character and eccentricities.
