Sonakshi Sinha, Arjun Kapoor grab top Golden Kela awards

March 15, 2015

New Delhi, Mar 15: While actor Arjun Kapoor was bestowed with the Worst Actor (Male) award for 'Gunday' at the 7th Annual Golden Kela Awards, actress Sonakshi Sinha won the Worst Actor (Female) award hands down, for 'Action Jackson', 'Lingaa' and 'Holiday'.

This was a hat-trick for Sonakshi as she swept the award for the third consecutive year.

The 7th edition of the ceremony was held at the India Habitat Centre here on Saturday, where it honoured the worst in Indian cinema in a lighter vein, said a statement.

sonakshi kela awardSinger Yo Yo Honey Singh was chosen for the Bas Kijiye Bahut Ho Gaya Award while his composition 'Blue hai paani paani' from 'Yaariyan' got the Most Irritating Song award.

Tiger Shroff failed to impress with 'Heropanti' and was accredited with the Worst Debut Award, while 'Bang Bang!' was chosen for the RGV Ki Aag Award for Most Pointless Remake/Sequel.

'Humshakals' seemed like a disaster with Saif Ali Khan, Ram Kapoor and Riteish Deshmukh dressing up as what they call 'women', all through the movie. It got the Worst Film award.

The Baanwra Ho Gaya Hai Ke Award went to Abhishek Sharma for 'The Shaukeens', for his selection of remaking a movie without knowing where and how to go about it and ending up making a complete mess of things.

On winning this Award, Sharma said: "I am extremely excited to win the Baanwra Award, as Golden Kela Awards are the only awards worth winning in this industry that celebrates mediocrity like no other film industry in the world. Proud to be one of the baanwras of Bollywood."

Sonam Kapoor won the Why Are You Still Trying Award, it conveys that she should stop torturing audiences with her plastic presence in movies and start focussing on something she is good at, like Fashion. Also, in the Special Awards Category, 'PK' won the Fanaa Award for Most Pointlessly Controversial Film.

Priyanka Chopra, though she did a commendable job as Mary Kom, couldn't quite nail the accent. The Dara Singh Award for the Worst Accent, thus, had her name written all over it.

In the horror movie domain, '6 - 5 = 2' was chosen for the Khooni Dracula Award for Most Creatively Named Horror Film.

New Delhi, May 28: On the World Menstrual Hygiene Day, former Miss World Manushi Chhillar on Thursday underlined the need to spread awareness on feminine hygiene.

The 23-year-old star has been roped in by UNICEF to spread awareness on the need to educate girls on personal hygiene.

Chhillar put out a post on Instagram expressing the need to educate girls with all information on maintaining hygiene, constructing adequate sanitation facilities and providing quick access to feminine hygiene products.

Manushi, who is participating in the UNICEF global initiative called the Red Dot Challenge, stated, "Every young girl has the right to accurate information about her body. Without the right information, girls often don't know how to safely manage their period. It's time to break the silence. I am calling all girls, boys, women and men to take the #RedDotChallenge with me. Because of Menstruation Matters. @unicefindia."

Along with the post, Chhillar shared her pictures with red dots on her hand representing the 'Red Dot Challenge.'

The former Miss World runs her own initiative on menstrual hygiene called 'Project Shakti' that works across several states of India.

Mumbai, Jul 31: Maharashtra Leader of Opposition and BJP leader Devendra Fadnavis on Friday said that the Enforcement Directorate should carry out an investigation in actor Sushant Singh Rajput's suicide case.

"There is a huge public sentiment about handing over #SushantSinghRajput case to CBI but looking at the reluctance of State Government, atleast @dir_ed ED can register an ECIR since misappropriation and money laundering angle has come out," tweeted Fadnavis.

Meanwhile, Union Minister Ram Vilas Paswan said that no FIR had been registered in Maharashtra yet and that the case must be handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).

"There is a confrontation between two states and there has been no FIR registered yet in Maharashtra. Chirag (Paswan) had spoken to CM Thackeray that there should be CBI probe. All political leaders are demanding for it. It should be handed over to CBI," Paswan said.

A team of the Bihar Police that arrived in Mumbai on Tuesday, recorded statements of two persons, including actor Sushant Singh Rajput's sister, on Wednesday in connection with the case.

An FIR was filed by Sushant Singh Rajput's father against actor Rhea Chakraborty in Bihar on Tuesday.

Rajput was found dead in his Mumbai residence on June 14.

According to the Maharashtra Police, statements of 41 people, including filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, film critic Rajeev Masand, director-producer Sanjay Leela Bhansali, and filmmaker Aditya Chopra have been recorded in the investigation so far.

Washington, May 18: Joining hands with the European Commission, actor Leonardo DiCaprio launched the Virunga Fund with seed money of USD 2 million to support Africa's Virunga National Park.

Since Virunga has lost a significant amount of revenue due to COVID shutdown post-March, the fund will be used to support the national park and the communities around, reported Variety.

The fund is aimed at disease prevention efforts, protection of mountain gorilla, and other species.

"I had the great honor of meeting and supporting Virunga's courageous team in their fight against illegal oil drilling in 2013," Variety quoted DiCaprio as saying.

"Virunga urgently needs funds to protect the endangered mountain gorilla population, to provide support to the rangers and the families of rangers who have fallen in the line of duty, and to help deliver essential disease prevention efforts. It's critical that we rally together during this time of incredible crisis," he added.

The 'Titanic' actor had earlier produced a Netflix documentary film 'Virunga' which is based on the national park.
