Is Katrina Kaif heading down the Aishwarya road in Salman Khan’s life?

July 17, 2012

The summer’s most-awaited Bollywood potboiler is set for release less than a month from now, yet the drama surrounding its lead pair is providing enough real-life action for a thriller of its own.

For those who haven’t guessed already, the film in question is ‘Ek Tha Tiger’, with superstar Salman Khan’s pairing with one-time rumoured beau, Katrina Kaif, bearing the brunt of media scrutiny once again as stories of abuse and mistreatment does the round of the rumour mills.

Kaif’s situation is already being compared to that of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s, who came out to the media several years ago, accusing Khan of physically, mentally and emotionally abusing her during their turbulent courtship that even saw the former beauty queen caught on camera with bruises on several occasion.

The current drama surrounding Khan and Kaif came into the foray once again when rumour mills were abuzz with stories that less than a month ago the hot tempered actor had even hit the “New York” starlet with a stick during the making of ‘Ek Tha Tiger’.

The story alleged that Kaif had walked out of the makeup man in a skimpy outfit and Khan took objection in a violent way.

While neither party has commented on the story, one recalls a similar story that did the rounds at the peak of their alleged romance, where Khan was accused of slapping Kaif in public during an argument.

At last week’s press conference for the Yash Raj Films’ first look of ‘Ek Tha Tiger’, Khan made a public jibe at Kaif in front of the press over her nifty moves in the track ‘Maashallah’, saying: “Katrina is very hard working. She rehearses for 5-6 days for every song.

“Today whatever is Katrina, her success rate is because of her sheer hard work. However, I am very talented so I don’t have to work hard.”

This is not the first time such jibes have been dished out, directed towards Kaif.

Sources close to the 27-year-old actress say that Kaif is too much in awe of Khan to ever publicly denounce him, considering it was him who played her godfather in Bollywood to land her some plum roles at the start of her career, which kicked off with the disastrous “Boom”.

A tough price to pay one can say.

Sushant Singh Rajput suicide case: Cloth used by actor to hang self to undergo ‘tensile' test

News Network

July 3,2020

Mumbai, Jun 3: Investigators will subject the cloth allegedly used by actor Sushant Singh Rajput to hang himself to "tensile strength" analysis to determine whether it can bear the weight similar to that of the filmstar, as part of probe into his death, an official said on Friday.

Rajput (34) was found hanging at his suburban Bandra residence on June 14.

According to the investigators, the actor ended his life by hanging himself from the ceiling using a green coloured night gown made of cotton.

No suicide note was found from the spot, the police had said then.

Besides viscera from the actors body, the police also sent the gown for chemical and forensic analysis at the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) in suburban Kalina, he said.

It will take at least three more days to get final forensic report, the official said.

To ascertain the exact cause of death, forensic experts will check pattern of ligature marks around the actors neck and also determine the strength of the gown with the help of "tensile strength" analysis, he said.

The tensile strength test will technically establish whether the cloth can bear around 80kg, the weight of the actor, he said.

The test will help determine if there was any foul play, the official said.

Tensile strength is maximum load that a material can support without fracture when being stretched.

Viscera analysis will help in checking whether there were any traces of chemical, poisonous or narcotics substance in his body, the official said.

"Usually, it takes eight to ten working days to get s report from the FSL in regular cases. But since this case is sensitive, experts are taking more precautions to avoid any kind of error in their analysis," the official said.

The forensic report of the actors mobile phone is also awaited, he said.

Recently, the police received the final post-mortem report of the actor from Cooper Hospital, which mentioned the cause of the death as asphyxia due to hanging"
