Los Angeles, Jul 7: Sanjay Dutt's close friend Paresh Ghelani, who was portrayed as Kamlesh Kapaasi aka Kamli in "Sanju", has debuted on social media, a week after the release of the actor's biopic.

Kamli, which was based on Ghelani, was played by Vicky Kaushal to Ranbir Kapoor's Dutt.

Ghelani wrote an emotional open letter on Instagram, saying he was overwhelmed with " limitless emotions" after he saw the Rajkumar Hirani-directed film.

"After watching the film 'Sanju', I was numb, numb with limitless emotions. I wanted to just hug him, hold on to him and cry. Cry endlessly to the years we stood by and witnessed this roller coaster called life and the irrevocable loss of loved one...

"To the mistakes, we cannot do undo, to the strength we cannot find elsewhere but in each other," he wrote, adding it was after many years of staying away from social media, he finally gave in to embrace it.

Ghelani said the world now "shares our story" and the story of the man "who's made me a part of his and he has taught me how to get up after every fall".

"There were moments I've relived from my own life... on screen. 'Sanju' is everything that defines the core of friendship...

"Our friendship has been exhilarating, volatile, wild and rewarding... Our journey has often been clouded in disbelief and doubt, wondering if we will make it till the end or will fall into the labyrinth of tragedy and controversy. But here we are united, unbreakable and ready for life," he said.

"Look past the flaws, the women, the controversies, I love you and now I can share it with everyone," he added.

Kaushal also took to Twitter to welcome Ghelani on social media.

"Ladies & gentlemen! The real 'Kamli' is in the house! Please, welcome @impareshghelani on Twitter. Big hug Tiger! #Sanju," the actor wrote.

Mumbai, Mar 14: Animal Planet has announced a new documentary "The Zoo: COVID-19 And Animals", which seeks to explore the effects of coronavirus on animals.

The special will see Dave Salmoni, Animal Planet’s big cat expert, talking to a number of experts, from the World Health Organization to wildlife biologists, in order to find out how COVID-19 is affecting animals and what pet owners can do to safeguard them.

The issue came to forefront when a four-year-old Malayan tiger tested positive for COVID-19 at Bronx Zoo in New York.

The documentary will feature chief veterinarian of Bronx Zoo, who will give an update on the big cats and their treatment, and also Dr Peter Embarek from WHO's COVID-19 Task Force, who works particularly on all aspects of the virus related to animals.

In a statement, Salmoni said, "When news about Nadia the tiger came out the questions immediately began; what about my pets? How do I keep my animals and family safe? We’re going to answer these questions and more through this documentary."

"We're speaking to a wide range of experts from the World Health Organization, to wildlife biologists, to veterinarians. We are at war with this disease and so we get down to the nitty-gritty, and discuss practical questions about daily lives with our pets," he added.

Sai Abishek, Director – Content, Factual & Lifestyle Entertainment – South Asia, Discovery, said, "We have been the forefront of busting myths around novel coronavirus with international documentaries. With this latest film, we take a hard look at how animals are being treated during such a crisis and the safety measures that can be taken to keep both, the people and their pets healthy."

"The Zoo: COVID-19 And Animals" will premiere on May 17 on Animal Planet, Animal Planet HD and Discovery Plus app.

Kolhapur, Feb 21: Voicing against Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA), renowned lyrics and thinker Javed Akhtar has said that the act was an assault to secularism and integrity of India and with the ongoing protests, the nation had reached a threshold for an another struggle.

Speaking here on Thursday night at an event organised on the 5th death anniversary of CPI senior leader and progressive leader Com Govind Pansare, Mr Akhtar said the newly amended citizenship act was a plot to split the country.

Mr Javed said that communalism has a deep root in India and it spread after the formation of Hindu Mahasabha and Muslim League in British India. "Muslim league got Pakistan but Hindu Mahasabha is still unsatisfied," he alleged and added that BJP was now 'working as a branch of RSS' and trying to 'split the country' through NRC.
