Bhumi-Pednekar

Actress and climate advocate Bhumi Pednekar is working hard to protect the future of our planet. She says she has tried to be as active and vocal about the need for change and the need for “climate justice”.

“Yes, the awareness that we are in a climate crisis is on the rise but we are nowhere close to what we all should be doing to protect the environment. It will need all of us to be extremely conscious about what we do in our daily lives to protect the future what lies ahead. I can see people engaging and talking about being better and taking care of the planet. Yes, it is a start but there is a long way to go,” Bhumi said.

Bhumi spearheads the hugely lauded social media initiative ‘Climate Warrior’ that aims at raising awareness towards protecting nature.

“Climate Warrior is doing its bit to raise as much awareness as possible. I have tried to be as active and as vocal about the need for change and the need for climate justice. We will have to come together to ensure that we find solutions in our daily lives. Every bit counts and every bit matters,” she added.

Bhumi is worried about the extreme weather conditions plaguing the planet recently.

“We can see that we are experiencing extreme weather conditions and that will only deteriorate further in the coming years. Researchers and data is telling us this so it’s no longer an assumption. We will have to be conscious about the crisis we are in and how much worse it will get in the new decades,” said the actress.

She is optimistic that a difference can be made to protect the planet.

“We can still make a difference. We can save the planet and we must do so. I will continue to raise my voice, collaborate with climate warriors and try and educate as many people as possible. I hope everyone does the same. That’s my vision for Climate Warrior because we all have to be climate warriors to save our planet and our future generations,” concluded the actress.

Speaking about her upcoming slate of films, Bhumi has her diary full.

She will be seen in ‘Badhaai Do’ with Rajkummar Rao, ‘Raksha Bandhan’ starring Akshay Kumar and ‘Mr Lele’ alongside Vicky Kaushal.

Nargis Fakhri has always guarded her personal life, and has never spoken about her relationships. Many years ago, she was in the news for dating Uday Chopra, but both the actors never confirmed their relationship. Later, Nargis made it to the headlines for being in a relationship with businessman Tony Beig, but once again, the actress never spoke about it.

Now, recently, there have been reports of Nargis and Tony getting married, and a few inside pictures of their wedding made it to the social media. However, in those pictures apart from the venue and a cake, we don’t get to see anything else.

A report in TOI confirmed that the two got married last week in California and the wedding was a low-key affair. Reportedly, the couple are currently on their honeymoon in Switzerland.

While Nargis’ fans wait to see their favourite actress’ wedding pictures, let us give you a brief about who Tony Beig is. The 41-year-old businessman hails from Kashmir, but he is now settled in the US. He is the founder of Dioz Group which was launched in 2006.

‘India Got Latent’ row: SC issues notice on YouTuber Ashish Chanchlani’s plea to quash or transfer Guwahati FIR

Published

New Delhi, Feb 21: The Supreme Court on Friday agreed to examine a plea filed by popular YouTuber Ashish Chanchlani seeking to quash or transfer to Mumbai an FIR registered against him in Guwahati following the vulgar and crass comments made about parents on the comedy show “India’s Got Latent”.

A bench of Justices Surya Kant and N.K. Singh issued notice on Chanchlani’s plea and tagged it with the pending plea of prime accused Ranveer Allahbadia.

The apex court took note of the fact that the Guwahati High Court on Tuesday had already granted interim relief to Chanchlani, asking him to appear before the Investigating Officer within ten days.

Ashish Chanchlani appeared on Samay Raina’s show “India’s Got Latent” along with other content creators like Ranveer Allahbadia, Jaspreet Singh, and Apoorva Mukhija.

A controversy erupted after Allahbadia, during the show, asked a female contestant: “Would you rather watch your parents have sex every day for the rest of your life or join in once and stop it forever?”

The distasteful remark immediately sparked outrage among viewers and critics alike and following the controversy, Raina took down all episodes of the show from YouTube.

A formal complaint was filed with both the Mumbai Police Commissioner and the Maharashtra Women’s Commission. The Guwahati Crime Branch registered a case under Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita (BNS), 2023, the IT Act, 2000, the Cinematograph Act, 1952, and the Indecent Representation of Women (Prohibition) Act,1986.

In a post on X, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said: “Guwahati police has registered an FIR against certain Youtubers and social Influencers. They are Ashish Chanchlani, Jaspreet Singh, Apoorva Mukhija, Ranveer Allahabadia, and Samay Raina and others for promoting obscenity and engaging in sexually explicit and vulgar discussion in a show titled ‘India’s Got Latent’.”

Allahbadia, who is known for his BeerBiceps brand, also issued an apology admitting that it was “not appropriate” and “not even funny.”

The Supreme Court granted him interim relief after he filed a petition under Article 31 seeking protection from coercive action and challenging the multiple FIRs lodged against him across various states.
