Sajid KhanNew Delhi, Jun 21: After being tortured for 159 minutes with Sajid Khan's Humshakals, we appeal to the Censor Board of Film Certification to ban the director from making films.

Dear CBFC,

After watching Himmatwala and now Humshakals, in the larger interest of the Indian audience, I request you to ban Sajid Khan from trying his hands at making more films.

In case you have thankfully missed his latest film starring Saif Ali Khan, Riteish Deshmukh, Ram Kapoor, Esha Gupta, Bipasha Basu and Tamannah Bhatia, I rest my case with these five points:

1: You cannot be ignorant of the term 'comedy' when you claim to have paid tributes to comedy kings Kishore Kumar and Jim Carrey in your film. Sajid Khan commited the grave crime in Humshakals.

2: An overdose of stars (Bipasha, Saif) may ensure great opening, but it does not necessarily guarantee that you will be accepted as a filmmaker. The audience has triple dose of these stars but to only add to the sad heap of lame jokes being thrown at the audience. Sajid Khan's films are injurious to the mental health of the audience.

3: Sajid Khan tries to be intelligent and targets jokes at himself. He shows his own disaster - Himmatwala - as a weapon of torture. Unless he grows up enough as a filmmaker to get past that stage, that's never going to be funny.

4: Cocaine and vodka ke paranthe. Prince Charles speaking as well as understanding Marathi, Hindi and just about any language you want! Playing with the ECG machine brings the father back from coma, and sends him back again. If anyone (Sajid Khan) thinks that is funny, he should be jailed and not allowed to roam free and crack pathetic jokes at people.

5: Tamanna: Aap bahut witty hain

Saif: Aur aap Churchgate.

And adds, "Witty, VT, Churchgate," in case you did not get it.

Sir, we are not alone in seeking your assistance in this matter. Here's what other people have said about the above matter:

A comment on our website read: RGV's AAG seems Mugal-E-Aazam in front of Hamshakls...

Another one said, "Dear Sajid, it was not a challenge when we said 'Nothing can be worse than Himmatwala'

Washington, Mar 11: Pop star Selena Gomez made some revelations about her personal life in a recent interview.

While explaining the lyrics of her song "Rare" on the 'Genius' YouTube channel, the 27-year-old said that there are times when she feels that she will ever be able to find a suitable partner for herself, reported Fox News.

"Some days when I wake up and I am annoyed and I am like, 'I am going to be alone forever.' But after that 15 minutes go away, I say to myself, 'I know that there is someone for everybody," the singer told in the seven-and-a-half minute long video.

However, she remains optimistic as she is still young and "this isn't the end all be all".

Elaborating upon the chorus of her song, Gomez opened up and said, "self-esteem and confidence is a constant struggle".

"It's getting better with time and age, but it will always be something that I'm working on," she added while explaining the lyrics further.

"So what I think is so important about this chorus is that it's acknowledging, 'Hey, I don't have it all. I'm not saying I'm perfect, but I do know that I'm special,' and I think that is a humble approach of saying, 'Why don't you see that I am different?'" the singer added as reported by Fox News.

Touching upon her experiences from past relationships, she commented: "In certain relationships, I've heard and I've experienced and whatnot, I think men and women do it -- especially teenagers and young people in love -- is there's this satisfaction out of hurting someone because you know that they care. Purposefully putting someone down because they want to keep them at a level. I've had someone actually say that to me before".

Chennai, Jul 30: Filmmaker S.S. Rajamouli on Wednesday said he and his family members have tested positive for coronavirus and are currently quarantined at home.

The director, best known for his epic fantasy hit Baahubali series, said they got tested after they developed mild fever recently which subsided by itself.

“My family members and I developed a slight fever few days ago. It subsided by itself but we got tested nevertheless. The result has shown a mild COVID positive today. We have home quarantined as prescribed by the doctors (sic)” he said.

In a subsequent tweet, Rajamouli said he and his kin are asymptomatic and “feeling better”. They are, however, following all the precautions and instructions.

“Just waiting to develop antibodies so that we can donate our plasma,” he added.

Before the coronavirus-induced nationwide lockdown was announced in March, the filmmaker was working on his upcoming period action drama Rise Roar Revolt.

The Telugu film, featuring actors Ram Charan and NTR Jr in the lead, is a fictional tale based on the lives of two freedom fighters in early 20th century.

Andhra Pradesh witnessed its worst single day spike of coronavirus on Wednesday, 10,000 plus cases, as the other southern states, including Tamil Nadu and Karnataka also reported high daily numbers, although they saw a dip in the infections.

The cumulative tally of southern states — AP, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Telangana, Kerala and the Union Territory of Puducherry was 24,855 on Wednesday.

New Delhi, Jun 3: "This year feels relentless," actor Priyanka Chopra said urging Mumbai residents to take precautionary measures in view of Cyclone Nisarga.

The cyclone storm is approaching the north coast of Maharashtra with a speed of 11 kilometres per hour, according to the India Meteorological Department (IMD) on Wednesday.

Sharing Mumbai's famous Bandra-Worli Sea Link road picture on her Instagram story, the actor wrote: "Cyclone Nisarga is making its way to Mumbai, my beloved home city of more than 20 million people, including my mom and brother."

"Mumbai hasn't experienced a serious cyclone landfall since 1891, and at a time when the world is so desperate, this could be especially devastating," the 'Don' actor added.

"This year feels relentless. Please, everyone, find cover, take precautions, and follow the guidelines outlines. Please stay safe everyone, " said Chopra as she shared a swipe up link to Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) page that details the Do's and Don'ts for Mumbaikars to take on Cyclone Nisarga.

Earlier, the IMD had stated that the severe cyclonic storm is expected to impact the Maharashtra coast by the afternoon/evening of June 3.

On Tuesday, actor Vicky Kaushal shared a picture of the cloudy sky on the photo-sharing platform and hoped that the "first showers only bring relief and joy and not too much drama." The 'Raazi' actor also urged people to stay safe.
