Bollywood filmmaker and choreographer Farah Khan penned an emotional note to mourn her mother Menka Irani’s death. Irani passed away on July 26 after undergoing multiple surgeries. She was 79.

Farah took to her Instagram account to share a couple of throwback pictures with her mother. In the caption, she stated that she doesn’t want anyone to mourn Irani’s death and said she will soon get back to work. Farah also thanked those who visited them and stood by their side during the tough time.

“My mom was a very unique person.. never wanted the limelight or any fuss around her.. despite the hard knocks she faced in her early life she was a rare one who had no bitterness or envy towards anyone. Everyone who met her loved her n realised where we get our sense of humour from. Well hardly.. she was far wittier n funny than both sajid n I put together,” Farah wrote.

Thanking her friends and colleagues, the filmmaker mentioned, “I don’t know if she can see the outpouring of genuine love n condolences that have come for her .. not only frm our friends n of course family but so many of her colleagues n people who worked in our house came saying how my mom had helped them with loans or sending them money.. never expecting it back. Thank you to all who came home to be with us in our grief.. to all who messaged n are still messaging. To all her doctors n nurses at Nanavati hospital who tried their best everyday. N to our consulting docs frm Chandigarh pgi n belle vue hospital.. We are grateful you gave us some more days with her.

“Its time to get back to work.. that’s what she was always proud of. Our work! I don’t want time to heal this lump that will always stay in my heart.. I don’t want to miss her coz she’s always a part of me..grateful to the universe for letting her be my mother n letting us look after her the way she single handedly looked after us all her life.. no more mourning now.. I want to celebrate her every day.. thank you everyone.. p.s- the song playing was by her favourite country singer Don Williams. Knowing her she would probably think its too filmy of me to use it here,” Farah concluded her post.

Soon after Farah shared the post, Hrithik Roshan, Zoya Akhtar, Karan Johar, Sonu Sood, Sania Mirza, Vaibhavi Merchant, Shamita Shetty, Bhumi Pednekar, and Sunita Kapoor among others dropped heart emoticons.

Actress Huma Qureshi commented, “Aunty will want you to keep laughing and remembering her thru her fun stories … if u mope even one day .. you know she will be most upset and will come n flicker your lights.”

Earlier, in an Instagram post, Farah had revealed that her mother had undergone multiple surgeries. On her birthday on July 12, Farah had penned a heartfelt note for her mother and had lauded her strength.

Irani was the sister of former child actors Honey Irani, who later married Javed Akhtar, and Daisy Irani. Not many know but Irani also acted in the film Bachpan in 1963, which starred Salman Khan’s father Salim Khan.

Mithun Chakraborty’s Wallet Gets Stolen During BJP Roadshow In Jharkhand, Organisers Request Pickpockets To Return It

Published

on

Actor-turned-politician Mithun Chakraborty found himself in a sticky situation after his wallet was stolen from his pocket during his mega roadshow in Jharkhand on Tuesday. The actor campaigned for BJP in Dhanbad, Jharkhand, and that is when he got pickpocketed, leaving the organisers red-faced.

A video from the rally has now gone viral in which the organisers and other BJP karyakartas can be heard repeatedly requesting the pickpockets to return the veteran star’s wallet. “Whoever has stolen the wallet, please return it to Mithun Da,” a BJP member was seen urging the crowd.

Despite repeated pleas, the wallet was not returned.

Chakraborty led a massive roadshow in the Nirsa Assembly area of Jharkhand to extend his support to BJP candidate Aparna Sen Gupta. Thousands of people gathered at the venue to catch one glimpse of the star, and it led to major chaos and mismanagement at the spot.

Despite security forces in place, the crowd went out of control and rushed towards the stage to click photos and videos of the actor and see him from up close. It was during this chaos that Chakraborty’s wallet was stolen.

Disappointed by the fiasco, Chakraborty concluded the event sooner than expected and rushed back to safety.

Alice Kaushik 'Cuddles' Avinash Mishra As They Share A Bed, Viral Photo Leaves Bigg Boss 18 Fans Divided

Bigg Boss 18 contestants Alice Kaushik and Avinash Mishra have sparked a heated debate online after a photo showed them sharing a bed and cuddling. While the two actors have maintained that they share a close friendship, their recent cozy moment has left fans divided, with some defending their bond and others questioning the boundaries of friendship. For those unversed, Alice is dating her Pandya Store co-star Kanwar Dhillon.

In the photo, which has now circulated widely on social media, Alice and Avinash are seen lying in bed together, with Alice resting comfortably in Avinash’s arms under a blanket.

Netizens react to Alice and Avinash’s viral photo

Some fans viewed the moment as harmless and said that platonic cuddling shouldn’t be criticised. However, a section of netizens tagged the official social media account of Kanwar and asked if this is normal. They pointed out that since Alice has a committed relationship outside the Bigg Boss house, the cuddle might be inappropriate given her personal commitments.

“We are not in their boots, they are matured adults . Let them decide for their own,” a user commented.

“At a moment cuddle is ok..but in night sharing a bed and cuddling like this …when someone is married…i don’t know how his partner can’t have problem in this,” wrote another user.

Another user wrote, “He even kissed her stomach a few days ago. It would’ve been totally okay if both were single but with Alice having marriage plans outside and Avinash hitting on Eisha, this is weird.”

Alice has been in a relationship with Kanwar since several years. The actress, in one of the initial episodes of the show, had revealed how Kanwar proposed to her for marriage. However, Kanwar, in a few interviews outside the show denied this statement of the actress and stated that he did not propose her for marriage but said that she is the kind of girl one would get married to.

This statement of Kanwar was revealed to Alice in one of the Weekend Ka Vaar episodes of the show by host Salman Khan, which led to the actress breaking down.

Reacting to it, Kanwar told ETimes, “Woh duniya ka kaam hai, tawa garam tha aur roti sekhne aa gaye. They just commented watching the promo and did not understand what I was trying to say. Those who have a doubt can call me and ask. I don’t think I need to clarify to those whom I do not know. When things are good, people don’t come to ask right? So what’s the point of poking their nose when something else happens? I know what I was saying, so I do not want to waste my energy in explaining.”
