"Sometimes I honestly feel she might be Yash Chopra's reincarnation": Rani Mukerji on daughter Adira

Actor Rani Mukerji recently opened up about her daughter Adira and her bond with her late grandfather, legendary filmmaker Yash Chopra. Speaking during a conversation with filmmaker Karan Johar in Mumbai on Thursday, Rani said that at times she feels her daughter may be a reincarnation of Yash Chopra. Rani joined Karan Johar at Yash Raj Films Studios for an interaction reflecting on her 30-year-long career in Hindi cinema. During the discussion, she also spoke about her personal life, including her husband, filmmaker Aditya Chopra, and their daughter. Talking about Aditya Chopra, Rani said, “He likes to be really basic in his life every day, and that’s a very endearing quality he has. I come from a very humble and simple background. The way he respected his parents and the way he went about his daily life really attracted me to him. He didn’t carry the baggage of being Yash Chopra’s son or that of being such a prolific filmmaker. If he had even an iota of ego, I don’t think I would h...

Amid the ongoing inheritance dispute within the Kapur family, Mandhira Kapur Smith, sister of late industrialist Sunjay Kapur, has spoken publicly following a defamation case filed against her by Sunjay Kapur’s widow, Priya Sachdeva Kapur. Speaking to Republic TV, Mandhira described the developments as unfortunate and said that issues surrounding the family’s estate have come to light only recently. She supported claims earlier made by her mother, Rani Kapur, alleging that the Rani Kapur Family Trust was created through forgery and manipulation. “It is unfortunate we are finding out this stuff now… And it’s something we have to call out because the entire estate of my father’s was left to my mother.

Aanand L Rai REACTS to Rs 84 crores lawsuit over Raanjhanaa IP dispute: “I don't think it has any meaning”

Filmmaker Aanand L Rai has responded to a Rs 84 crore lawsuit filed by Eros International Media Ltd, which has accused him and his production company of unauthorised use of intellectual property linked to the 2013 film Raanjhanaa. Reacting to the legal action, Aanand L Rai described the dispute as a routine business issue and maintained that it does not warrant public speculation. Speaking to NDTV, he said, "These are part of life. When you step into business, such things keep happening. I don't even know why, how, or from where this has come. But I think it is a legal matter, so let the legal people handle it. There is a lawyer on their side, and a lawyer from here will respond too. I don't think it has any meaning.

Bombay High Court grants interim relief to Kumar Sanu in Rs 50 crores defamation case against ex-wife Rita Bhattacharya

The Bombay High Court on Wednesday granted interim relief to veteran playback singer Kumar Sanu in his Rs 50 crores defamation suit filed against his former wife, Rita Bhattacharya. The court passed a gag order restraining Bhattacharya and certain independent media platforms from making or circulating any allegedly defamatory statements against the singer or his family. Justice Milind Jadhav restrained Bhattacharya, along with some media houses, from writing, speaking, posting, publishing or disseminating any allegedly defamatory, false or slanderous content about Sanu “in any form or medium.” The court observed that the interviews given by Bhattacharya appeared to go beyond the limits of fair comment. “I am of the opinion that at some places in the interviews which have been given by Bhattacharya, there is a clear personal tirade against Sanu which is prima facie qualified by words that are used therein,” the court noted. In addition to the gag order, the High Court injuncted Bhatt...

Salman Khan gets Delhi High Court notice in personality rights case: Reports

The Delhi High Court has issued a notice to Bollywood actor Salman Khan in connection with a legal dispute over his personality and publicity rights, responding to a petition filed by a China-based artificial intelligence voice-generation platform. The High Court has asked Khan to respond to the notice within four weeks. The notice arises from a plea seeking to quash an interim order previously granted by the High Court that protects the actor’s personality rights, including his name, image and voice. The next hearing in the case is scheduled for February 27. Salman had initially approached the Delhi High Court to secure legal protection against the unauthorised use of his public persona. In December 2025, the court issued an interim order restraining the use of his voice and identity without consent. At that time, Justice Manmeet Pritam Singh Arora directed social media intermediaries to act on his petition and warned that stay orders would be issued against any entity using Khan’s ...
