Mumbai, Aug 5: From Lata Mangeshkar to Amitabh Bachchan to Rishi Kapoor — Indian film fraternity members on Thursday remembered legendary singer-actor Kishore Kumar on his 87th birth anniversary, calling him a “phenomenal star” who continues to rule people’s hearts.

Kishore Kumar, fondly known as Kishore-da, gave the Indian film industry songs like “Kabhi alvida na kehna”, “Zindagi ka safar …”, “Aa chal ke tujhe”, “Pal pal dil ke paas”, “Hawa ke saath saath”, “Chhookar mere mann ka” and “Jahaan teri ye nazar hai”.

As an actor, he was seen in films like “Padosan”, “Half Ticket” and “Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi”. He died on October 13, 1987, in Mumbai and was cremated in his birthplace Khandwa.

Here is what the stars tweeted about the “great legend”:

Lata Mangeshkar: Today is Kishore Da’s birth anniversary. He was a carefree man and every time we met, he would make me laugh all the time. It would get difficult to record anything due to that. I miss him and reminisce the time with him.

Amitabh Bachchan: Kishore Kumar, his multi-talented genius shall remain ever… A phenomenal star himself, he made stars too.

Madhur Bhandarkar: Remembering Kishore Kumar on his 87th birthday. His talent influenced the lives of generations and still going strong.

Milap Zaveri: There never has and never will be a better singer than Kishore Kumar. His fun, his emotion, his madness!

New Delhi, Feb 25: The Delhi High Court on Tuesday gave time to Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) to seek instructions on travel ban imposed on comedian Kunal Kamra.

Kamra approached the court against IndiGo which suspended him from flying with the airlines for a period of six months. Other airlines had also followed the suit in pursuance to this.

Justice Naveen Chawla said that the regulatory body should not have certified actions of airlines other than IndiGo to ban Kamra without conducting inquiry. The matter will now be heard on February 27.

Last month, IndiGo had barred the stand-up comedian for six months from using its services for allegedly portraying "unacceptable behaviour" onboard its flight.

The airline claimed that Kamra, while travelling on a Mumbai-Lucknow IndiGo flight, provoked a TV news anchor by asking questions over his news presentation style.

London, Mar 19: "Game of Thrones" star Indira Varma has revealed that she has tested positive for coronavirus.

Her diagnosis comes two days after fellow "Game of Thrones" actor Kristofer Hivju also said that he tested positive for the COVID-19 infection.

Varma, who played the role of Ellaria Sand in the epic HBO series, took to Instagram on Wednesday to share the news.

"I'm in bed with it and it's not nice. Stay safe and healthy and be kind to your fellow people," she wrote.

The 46-year-old actor was starring in the modern take of Anton Chekhov's play "The Seagull" in London's West End, alongside "Game of Thrones" alum Emilia Clarke.

The play is on hold due to the pandemic.

"So sad our and so many other shows around the world have gone dark affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. We hope to be back soon and urge you all (and the govt) to support us when we do. Phoenix/ Seagull rising from the ashes (sic)," Varma wrote in her post with photos from the rehearsals.

Varma and Hivju join Tom Hanks, Rita Wilson, Idris Elba, Olga Kurylenko, and Rachel Matthews among the Hollywood celebrities who contracted the virus.

Indore, Jan 14: Yoga guru Ramdev has said that Deepika Padukone should hire persons like him for offering correct advice, days after the actress had visited Jawaharlal Nehru University in Delhi following the violence at the campus earlier this month.

"Deepika Padukone needs to study about political, social and cultural issues. She should understand more about our country. Only after gaining knowledge, she should take decisions. I feel she should have persons like Swami Ramdev for correct advice," Ramdev said at an event here on Monday.

On January 7, Padukone joined the protest at JNU after a masked mob entered the varsity campus and attacked the students and teachers with sticks and rods on January 5.

Several BJP leaders questioned the support extended by Padukone. On the other hand, the Congress threw their weight behind the actress for her stand.
