 Filmmaker Rahat Kazmi shares his excitement on the poster launch of his movie ‘Kaya Palat’ at the Cannes Film Festival.

Talking about the movie, Rahat said: “The launch of the film went very well and we are very happy with the launch. The film was shot in Jammu and is based on the river mafia’s true story. The leading character is of a strong woman, a strong girl which is played by Helly Shah whose character name is Kaya and Palat is something on how she turned the tables on the mafia, hence ‘Kaya Palat’.”

“The storyline has suspense and powerful characters. We are thankful to one of India’s best actors Inaamulhaq for hosting it and supporting us always. We are thankful to the India Pavilion and government of India for providing us this platform at the Cannes Film Festival for filmmakers.”

Helly Shah stated: “In ‘Kaya Palat’ I am playing the role of Kaya who is very strong yet very vulnerable. There are a lot of layers in her character as she has gone through a lot in her life, she is unpredictable and I enjoyed playing Kaya.”

“When the story and character was narrated to me I absolutely loved it and wanted to be part of it. Script, story and character are the main subjects on the basis of which I decide if I have to be part of it. The character of Kaya is very dear to me and I hope people will love and enjoy the entire film and the entire experience, the work which we have done for the film. It was a pleasure working with Rahat sir and Tariq.”

“It’s because of this film that I got to explore Jammu. They are amazing people and a team to work with, this collaboration is very special for me,” she added.

Producer and actor Tariq Khan concluded by stating: “It feels great to launch our film poster at the Cannes Film Festival. Cannes has always been very special to us since in 2017 our film ‘Mantostaan’ premiered. As the producer and actor, it becomes difficult to be on and behind the camera but ultimately to move forward you have to take this challenge and deliver it.”

“We will be watching more world cinema at Cannes and promoting Jammu & Kashmir as a place to shoot since it is a beautiful place and every filmmaker around the globe should come and shoot it here.”

The film is written by Rahat Kazmi and Shoaib Nikash Shah and produced by Rahat Kazmi Film Studios, Tariq Khan Films and Tera Entertainment in association with Zeba Sajid Films and Alphaa Productions. The film is slated to release soon on a streaming platform which is not yet announced.

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. Many brands like Alanic, Oasis, 8Health, 8EV and 1 Energy come under Dioz Group.

Beig did his MBA from Victoria University of Technology in Melbourne, and while his company has its headquarters in Los Angeles, they have multiple offices in different parts of the world like London, Dubai, Riyadh, Sydney, Dhaka, Shanghai, and Kolkata.

Tony’s brother Johnny Beig is a film producer, and his father Shakeel Ahmad Beig is a politician. Shakeel Ahmad Beig earlier was the Deputy Inspector General of Jammu and Kashmir.

Nargis hails from the US, and reportedly, the two have been in a relationship from the past three years. While Nargis and Tony have not yet officially announced their wedding, the latter recently shared a picture with the actress on his Instagram story.

Meanwhile, the actress, who has been away from the big screens for quite sometime, is all set to make her comeback with Housefull 5.

‘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.
