T-Series marked a significant milestone on Friday as it celebrated 30 years of President & Executive Director Neeraj Kalyan's association with the company, recognising the executive whose leadership has played a defining role in shaping the entertainment giant's growth over the last three decades.

Having joined the company during a period when the Indian music industry was on the cusp of transformation, Kalyan has been instrumental in steering T-Series through some of its biggest transitions. From the era of physical music formats to the rise of digital streaming, and from domestic success to establishing a formidable global footprint, his strategic vision has helped the company remain ahead of the curve in an ever-evolving entertainment landscape.

Over the years, Kalyan has overseen key areas including music publishing, digital licensing, strategic partnerships and legal affairs, while also helping drive the company's commercial expansion. His leadership has been central to T-Series' emergence as one of the world's leading music labels and a dominant force in Indian cinema.

Paying tribute to Kalyan's three-decade-long journey, T-Series Chairman and Managing Director Bhushan Kumar acknowledged the executive's invaluable contribution to the organisation's success.

"A true leader doesn't just navigate the future; they create it. Neeraj has been a pillar of strength, a trusted teammate, and a beacon of inspiration for everyone at T-Series over the past three decades. His passion, vision, and unparalleled contributions have been instrumental in transforming T-Series into a global music and film powerhouse. I extend my heartfelt appreciation for his unwavering commitment to our family, and we look forward to honoring his legacy and achieving many more milestones together," said Bhushan Kumar.

Kalyan's tenure has coincided with some of the most transformative phases in the music business, including the rapid adoption of digital platforms and the growing importance of global licensing and strategic collaborations. His ability to anticipate industry shifts and build long-term partnerships has ensured that T-Series continues to strengthen its leadership position not only in India but across international markets.

The celebration serves as both a recognition of Kalyan's remarkable journey and a testament to the role he has played in building T-Series into the global entertainment powerhouse it is today. As the company continues to expand its footprint across music, films and digital content, Kalyan remains one of the key architects behind its sustained growth and long-term vision.

Actress Kirti Kulhari has reportedly become the latest celebrity to fall victim to cyber fraud after unauthorized transactions amounting to Rs 2,43,852 were allegedly made using her credit card. Following the incident, the actress approached Mumbai Police, leading to the registration of a case against unidentified persons. Authorities have now launched an investigation to trace those responsible.

According to reports, the incident came to light while Kirti was at a multiplex near Fun Republic Mall in Andheri West, Mumbai. During her visit, she reportedly received an alert on her mobile phone informing her of a foreign transaction worth $2,525 on Aeromexico Airlines through her credit card. The unexpected notification immediately raised concerns, as the actress had not authorized any such payment.

Realizing the transaction appeared suspicious, Kirti is said to have contacted her bank's customer care helpline without delay. During the verification process, bank officials reportedly discovered that multiple unauthorized transactions had been carried out using her credit card. In total, four separate transactions had been processed without her consent, resulting in a financial loss of Rs 2,43,852.

As a precautionary measure, the bank immediately blocked the credit card to prevent any further misuse. The actress later filed a complaint with the Amboli Police Station, following which an FIR was registered against unknown accused under relevant sections pertaining to cyber fraud.

In her statement to the police, Kirti reportedly maintained that she had never shared her credit card password or confidential banking information with anyone. Investigators suspect that the fraud may have been executed through sophisticated digital methods, including the possible use of malware or spyware that compromised her phone or banking credentials. However, the exact modus operandi is yet to be determined.

The investigation has now been taken up by the Cyber Cell, which is working alongside local police officials to identify the perpetrators. Authorities are reportedly examining bank reference numbers, transaction records, and other digital footprints in an effort to trace those involved in the fraudulent activity.

The incident serves as another reminder of the growing threat posed by cybercrime, with online financial frauds increasingly targeting individuals through advanced hacking techniques.

On the professional front, Kirti Kulhari was last seen in the web-series Shekhar Home. She recently also celebrated a major milestone in her career after completing the shoot of her first feature film as a producer. Sharing the update with fans on social media, the actress reflected on the emotional journey behind the project.
