Actor Sohum Shah on Saturday announced a sequel to his 2018 critically acclaimed film, “Tumbbad”, a day after the movie was re-released in theatres. Directed by Rahi Anil Barve, the atmospheric horror drama received critical acclaim upon its release six years ago. It was produced by the actor under his banner Sohum Shah Films.

Shah assured fans that the sequel of “Tumbbad” will dig deeper into the theme of greed. “‘Tumbbad’ has been a special journey and a labour of love for us, and to see the love it continues to receive is overwhelming and only ratifies our belief and ethos of Sohum Shah Films, that content is king.

“With ‘Tumbbad 2’, we want to push the cinematic experience and boundaries even further. ‘Tumbbad 2’ will take audiences deeper into the world we’ve created, with bigger twists and a more intense exploration of what happens when greed knows no limits,” the actor-producer said in a statement.

Set in a Maharashtra village, “Tumbbad” explores Vinayak Rao’s (Shah) descent into greed and obsession as he seeks out a mythical treasure guarded by the malevolent entity Hastar. With the sequel, the makers promise an even more gripping narrative that builds on the dark, mythical universe of “Tumbbad”, the press release said.

“Tumbbad”, which was re-released in theatres on Friday, received a positive response from the audience.

Arbaz Patel, currently in the Bigg Boss Marathi season 5 house, has been making headlines ever since he entered the show. From his proximity with Nikki Tamboli to him being slammed for the same by host Riteish Deshmukh, Arbaz has definitely turned out to be one of the most controversial contestants on the show.

Well, a few days ago, Arbaz’s girlfriend, Leeza Bindra had indicated towards a split with him through her social media posts. In a couple of posts shared by Leeza on her Instagram stories, she had also asked the viewers to not link her name with Arbaz as her ‘future partner’ may not like the same. She had gone ahead to state that she has ‘moved on.’

Looks like, Leeza has now had a change of mind. In a few Instagram stories shared by the actress, she now claims that she will ‘never breakup’ with Arbaaz and that a ‘show’ can never be the reason to break off a relationship. Leeza also calls out Nikki for her behaviour and states that despite knowing of Arbaaz being in a relationship, she still does not maintain her distance with Arbaaz. Leeza writes, ”l am always there for you in your good and bad time. will never leave you alone.”

In the next slide, sharing a picture of herself with Arbaaz, Leeza writes, ”I have seen Arbaaz’s mom praying for her son. And he is just trying to fulfill his parents dreams inside the show And he is not wrong. e would have been wrong if The girl doesn’t know that he is in a relationship with me. Ritesh Sir has told this to the girl twice. Still!”

Further confirming that she does not want to breakup with Arbaaz, Leeza writes, ”A game can never break someone’s relationship. Yes, we are in relationship. I never ever break up with him.”

For the uninformed, Arbaaz was last seen in Splitsvilla X5 and he later ventured in the Bigg Boss Marathi season 5 house. In one of the episodes of the show, Arbaaz had also slammed a chair on the floor when Bigg Boss announced that Abhijeet and Nikki will be doing a task together as a couple.

Bollywood actress Sonam Kapoor will soon move into a uber-luxurious Rs 231 crore mansion in London’s Notting Hill with husband Anand Ahuja. The property has been purchased by her father-in-law Harish Ahuja, and the actress will shift base there after it undergoes redevelopment.

Harish Ahuja purchased the property which was previously owned by a UK-registered ‘charity and religious order’ in July 2023. The property spans across 20,000 square feet and is located just a stone’s throw away from Kensington Gardens.

The eight-storeyed convent building is currently undergoing redevelopment, and while Sonam and Anand will move into one section of the property, another section is being converted into flats.

Sonam and Anand tied the knot in May 2018 after several years of dating, and soon after their marriage, the actress moved to London, where her husband resided. In 2022, the couple welcomed their first child, a son, whom they named Vayu.

After being a hands-on mommy and spending all the time with her child, Sonam is now ready to make a comeback in Bollywood. The actress recently admitted that she was apprehensive of moving out of their London home and returning to Mumbai, but they decided on it as she would have to spend majority of her time in the city due to work.

“I’m super excited to face the camera again post my pregnancy. I love being an actor and I love living so many interesting characters through my profession,” she gushed.

Anand is a successful entrepreneur himself, and the family owns a mammoth mansion in one of the posh localities of Delhi as well.
