Harbhajan Singh Exchange Wedding Rings With Geeta Basra; PM Narendra Modi May Attend Reception

October 28, 2015

Phagwara, Oct 28: Harbhajan Singh and long-time girlfriend Geeta Basra exchanged wedding rings at a lavish ceremony in Jalandhar on Wednesday evening. The veteran off-spinner will formally marry Basra, a film actress, in Phagwara on Thursday.

More than 500 hundred friends and family members attended the ring ceremony. Harbhajan and Geeta will host a reception in Delhi on November 1.

Apart from his Team India teammates like Yuvraj Singh and Virat Kohli, Bollywood celebrities like Amitabh Bachhan, Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra are likely to attend. There is news that Prime Minister Narendra Modi may bless the couple.

The fingers of the feisty bowler, who tormented the best batsmen across the world, performed a 'different' act that was perhaps long overdue. The 35-year-old Harbhajan, who was recently part of India's ODI squad against South Africa, has 686 international wickets.

Harbhajan, often controversial for his aggressive attitude on the field, is among a rare crop of bowlers to have taken 417 wickets in 103 Tests. However, he will not be part of the first two Tests against South Africa. The first Test starts in Mohali on November 5.

Geeta Basra was born in Portsmouth, UK in March 1984. She made her Bollywood debut in 2006 in an Emraan Hashmi-starrer Dil Diya Hai. The pair did their second movie - The Train, together in 2007. Basra's career has been confined to music videos. Like Harbhajan, she has interests in film production.

Harbhajan and Basra's romance has largely been a private affair even after being seen in public many times. The wedding rituals are already attracting a lot of attention with several former India players like Parthiv Patel and RP Singh attending the mehendi, sangeet and ring exchange ceremonies.

Harbhajan and Basra have roped in celebrity fashion designer Archana Kochhar for their wedding dresses. T-shirt loving Harbhajan's brief was simple and classic.

Actor Rajinikanth defends Govt on CAA, says it won't affect Indian Muslims

News Network

February 5,2020

Chennai, Feb 5: The popular cine actor Rajinikanth has defended the Union Government on the Citizenship Amendment Act, saying it will not affect the Indian Muslims.

In a brief interaction with reporters this morning in Chennai, the matinee idol said if the Muslims are affected by the CAA, he would be at the forefront in their defence. He asked how will the legislation affect the Indian Muslims when they chose to stay back in the country to make it their motherland. Mr Rajinikanth also supported the National Population Register saying it has been in force even in the past.

On the NRC, Mr Rajinikanth said the Government has already made it clear that its nationwide rollout has not been even discussed so far. Mr Rajinikanth is nourishing political ambitions and has made it clear that he would plunge into politics ahead of the Tamil Nadu Assembly Elections in the state which is due in 2021.

This law violates the fundamentals of the Indian constitution. Whey they are seeing the Muslims angle first?

It looks that they are misinforming the public by diverting into a Muslim only issue. If that was the case, why so many non-Muslims are protesting? I looks like Rajini has back-end support to the center's CAA move.

He is another crack, hamare desh main pagal logon ki kami nahi

What can expect from ex KSRTC bus conductor

clear sign of ZERO knowedge with Indian constitution.

July 28,2020

Mumbai, Jul 28: Megastar Amitabh Bachchan says he was left in tears as his daughter-in-law, actor Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, and granddaughter Aaradhya Bachchan were discharged from hospital after testing negative for coronavirus.

Aishwarya and her eight-year-old daughter, who were shifted to the isolation ward of Nanavati Hospital on July 17, were discharged on Monday.

Amitabh, 77, and his actor-son Abhishek are still in hospital after they were admitted on July 11.

In a post on official blog, the Bollywood veteran said that he became emotional when Aaradhya told him that he would be "back home soon".

"They go home, the little one and Bahurani... and the tears flow out... the little one embraces and tells me not to cry... 'You’ll be home soon', she assures... I must believe her," he said.

On Monday, Abhishek had said that he and his father were still under the care of medical staff at the Nanavati Hospital's isolation ward.

"My father and I remain in hospital under the care of the medical staff. Thank you all for your continued prayers and good wishes. Indebted forever," the 44-year-old actor tweeted.

Both Amitabh and Abhishek have been sharing their health updates with fans on various social media platforms.

Last week, Amitabh had dismissed reports that he had finally tested negative for coronavirus, calling the piece of news "an incorrigible lie".

Mumbai's Covid-19 tally rose to 1,10,129 on Monday with addition of 1,033 new cases.
