Deepika_PadukoneMumbai, Jun 10: Actress Deepika Padukone, who has teamed up with superstar Shah Rukh Khan yet again after a gap of six years for action-comedy 'Chennai Express', says she trusts him very much personally as well as professionally.

The model-turned-actress made her debut opposite Khan in 'Om Shanti Om' in 2007 and was directed by Farah Khan. The film saw her in a double role.

"It was glad to be working with him again. He has become my very good friend today. He is someone I trust personally and professionally. I am sure he will always be there for me whenever I need him," Deepika said.

'Chennai Express' directed by Rohit Shetty and produced by Gauri Khan under her production banner Red Chillies Entertainment will release on August 8.

"It was lot of fun working on the film. It was a great experience. Rohit is known for making comedy films and this film as well has turned out to be very entertaining. It is very different from what he has done. I am quite excited about its release," Deepika said.

The film is the story about a man's journey from Mumbai to Rameswaram and what happens during the journey.

The 27-year-old would be seen next in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's much talked about film 'Ram Leela', which is said to be an adaptation of Shakespeare's epic love story Romeo and Juliet, set in violent times.

"Every director is a task master as they all churn out the best from us. They want to make a good film," Deepika said on Bhansali's hard ways on the film sets.

Deepika has been paired opposite Ranveer Singh for the first time in this film and gossip mills are already abuzz with their close equation.

About his co-star Ranveer, she said, "He is a fabulous actor, he is very talented. It was a great experience working with him. He is a great co-star, a great person and nothing else.

"People create hype when the film is about to release. People should understand it is all about on-screen chemistry. I don't feel the need to go and clarify things to people."

Mumbai, Jul 18: Filmmaker and Yash Raj Films (YRF) chairman Aditya Chopra on Saturday recorded his statement with the Mumbai Police in connection with actor Sushant Singh Rajput death case, an official said.

Police have sought information about a contract signed between Rajput and YRF from Chopra who visited Versova police station this morning and left after four hours, the official said.

The "Chhichore" actor, 34, was found hanging at his apartment in Mumbai on June 14. No suicide note was found from the spot by the police.

The police are investigating allegations that professional rivalry, besides clinical depression, drove the actor to suicide.

Police are also trying to understand the reason behind Rajput ending his contract with YRF, the official said.

Earlier, the police had recorded statement of YRF's casting director Shanoo Sharma.

The police had recorded statements of 34 persons, including Rajput's family members and close friends like actors Rhea Chakraborty and Sanjana Sanghi, in connection with the case.

Maharashtra Home Minister Anil Deshmukh on Friday dismissed the need for a CBI probe into the death case of Rajput, saying the Mumbai police are capable of handling the matter.

On Thursday, Rhea Chakraborty demanded a CBI inquiry to understand what "pressures" prompted Rajput to take the extreme step of suicide.

Rajput starred in films such as Shuddh Desi Romance', Raabta, Kedarnath and Sonchiriya. But his most prominent role came as cricketer Mahendra Singh Dhoni in the biopic, MS Dhoni: The Untold Story.

The company banned six channels for repeatedly violating YouTube's policies.

According to The Verge, other channels banned include American Renaissance (with its associated channel AmRen Podcasts) and the channel for Spencer's National Policy Institute.

YouTube began taking stern measures on supremacist channels in June 2019.

"We have strict policies prohibiting hate speech on YouTube, and terminate any channel that repeatedly or egregiously violates those policies," the Verge quoted a YouTube spokesperson as saying.

"After updating our guidelines to better address supremacist content, we saw a 5x spike in video removals and have terminated over 25,000 channels for violating our hate speech policies," the spokesperson added.
