Mumbai: Farhan Akhtar’s Family Driver Misuses Actor’s Cards To Fill His Pockets, Booked For ₹12 Lakh Fraud

Mumbai: The police have registered a case against the driver of actor Farhan Akhtar’s mother, Honey Irani, and an employee of a petrol pump near Bandra Lake. The accused driver, Naresh Singh, 35, used Akhtar’s cards to fill fuel in Irani’s cars. However, he merely swiped the cards at the petrol pump and an employee there, Arun Singh, 52, gave him cash after keeping his share for the deal.
On October 1, Irani’s manager filed a complaint with the Bandra police against Singh and the petrol pump employee for allegedly cheating them of Rs 12 lakh. According to the FIR, Irani’s manager, Diya Bhatia, 36, while checking the fuel accounts, discovered that a Maruti car with a diesel capacity of 35t was recorded as having received 621t.
When Bhatia questioned Singh, he gave unsatisfactory answers, claiming he only had one card to fill petrol and diesel. The manager examined the cards’ history. She discovered that Singh had used three cards, all registered under Akhtar’s name. She further found that Singh had purchased vehicle oil for a car that had been sold seven years ago. She arranged a meeting with Trani, during which Singh confessed to cheating them.
Singh revealed that in 2022, he obtained three cards from Akhtar’s former driver, Santosh Kumar. After obtaining the cards, he always filled petrol and diesel at the SV Road petrol pump near Bandra Lake, where he conspired with the petrol pump employee. Singh frequently swiped the cards without filling petrol or diesel and was given cash after a deduction of Rs 1,000- 1500.
A case has been registered under Sections 318 (criminal breach of trust), 418 (cheating), and 3(5) (general provisions) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.

‘Stranger Asked For Nude Pics’: Akshay Kumar Reveals Daughter’s Disturbing Online Game Incident; Warns Parents Of Cyber Threats

Mumbai: Bollywood star Akshay Kumar, known for keeping his personal life private, revealed a disturbing incident involving his 13-year-old daughter. Speaking at a cyber awareness program, the actor recounted how an unknown individual tried to target his daughter while she was playing an online video game.
Kumar explained, “A few months ago, my daughter was playing an online game. Some games allow interaction with strangers. While she was playing, she received messages like ‘Thank you,’ ‘That was great,’ ‘You’re doing so well,’ ‘Fantastic’ – very courteous messages that seemed harmless.”
However, the tone soon changed. “Suddenly, the person asked where she was from. She replied, ‘Mumbai.’ The conversation continued politely at first, but then the stranger asked, ‘Are you male or female?’ She answered, ‘Female.’ Shockingly, the stranger then requested her to send nude pictures,” Akshay said.
Nitara immediately closed the game and informed her mother, Twinkle Khanna, about the incident. Akshay praised his daughter’s quick thinking and her decision to share the matter with her parents.
“This is exactly how such incidents start. Children are often trapped online, later extorted for money, and in many cases, these crimes have even led to suicides,” Kumar warned.
The actor urged parents to closely monitor their children’s online activities and stressed the importance of awareness about the dangers on gaming and social platforms.
“Parents must educate their children, supervise online interactions, and teach them how to respond to strangers in digital spaces,” he added.

Watch Tere Ishk Mein Teaser: Dhanush Turns Vengeful Lover, Kriti Sanon Caught In Emotional Turmoil

The makers of Dhanush and Kriti Sanon’s Tere Ishk Mein shared the film’s intriguing teaser on Wednesday (October 1). Directed by Aanand L Rai, the film is all set to hit the big screens on November 28.
The first glimpse promises an emotional rollercoaster as the teaser drops viewers right into a haldi ceremony gone intense. Kriti’s character is seen celebrating, but the moment takes a dramatic turn with the arrival of an injured Dhanush. In a striking scene, he pours gangajal on her head, asking her to wash away the past before stepping into a new life – hinting at a revenge-fueled love story with his former flame.
Dhanush’s avatar in the teaser is intense and brooding. He is seen thrashing a man, revealing a relentless lover willing to go to any lengths to reclaim his love. Kriti, on the other hand, appears distraught, drinking and smoking. All this hints at the emotional turmoil in her life. Amid the tension, the teaser also offers glimpses of tender, cute moments between the two, balancing the drama with romance.
The dialogues strike a chord, particularly when Dhanush says, “Shankar kare tera beta ho… tujhe bhi pata chale ki ishq mein jo marr jaate hai vo bhi kisi ke bete hote hai.”
Arijit Singh’s soulful voice and the background score add depth to the teaser, making it all the more compelling. His voice is one of the major highlights of the teaser.
Some souls are meant to collide. Some love stories are destined to burn brighter. Tere Ishk Mein is set to explore just that.
Tere Ishk Mein is written by Himanshu Sharma and Neeraj Yadav. It is produced by Aanand L Rai, Himanshu, Bhushan Kumar and Krishan Kumar.
