For the unversed, Halloween celebrations turned deadly in South Korea’s Itaewon. It was reported that a crowd crush led to the death of 154 people, of whom 26 were foreign nationals and 132 were injured as per updates on Sunday, according to Korea Herald. An estimate of 100,000 people was expected to be in attendance on Saturday night in Itaewon, a district in central Seoul. In the narrow alley, around 10:40 pm, the crowd began to surge leaving people stuck there for over one and a half hours. This led to suffocation in the tight space. Videos and photos went viral on social media in which people and first responders were giving CPR on the spot to people who were unresponsive and went into cardiac arrest. The majority of the fatalities were people in their 20s.

Coming back to The Fabulous, the upcoming series follows four best friends as they chase their dreams alongside fashion’s elite while juggling demanding jobs, romantic dilemmas and wild nights on the town. In the series, Minho plays Ji Woo Min, a freelance photo editor established in his profession and known for his attractive appearance. However, he struggles with finding passion for his work. Things change when he encounters Pyo Ji Eun (played by Chae Soo Bin), a PR manager for luxury brands, and the two find themselves in a blossoming romance. The first look photos were unveiled in September.

Meanwhile, Chae Soo Bin was most recently seen in Disney+ series Rookie Cops. The series marked the debut of singer Kang Daniel as the lead actor.  She is currently seen in a variety show Young Actors’ Retreat. On the other hand, Choi Minho was last seen in Lovestruck In The City and Yumi’s Cells season 1.

Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra is returning to India after three years. Following the pandemic and the lockdown, the actress couldn’t travel to her home country. She has been in her Los Angeles home for the past couple of years where she lives with her husband Nick Jonas. Earlier this year, they welcomed her first child, a baby girl named Malti Marie Chopra, through surrogacy due to which she waited for a couple of months to be back in India. After celebrating Diwali last week in LA, she is all set to be back in Mumbai. This will be the first time she will be in the city with her child.

Sharing the photo of her boarding pass, Priyanka wrote, “Finally…going home. After almost 3 years.”

Priyanka Chopra was expected to come to India in April. The actress, in an interview with Travel+Leisure magazine, had said, “My brain has been taking vacations every night, but I am dying to go back to India. Every state in India has its own written and spoken language, which means different alphabets, clothing, attire, foods, and holidays. So it's like going to a new country every time you cross the border in India. Every time I go back home, I make sure I take time to do a bit of a holiday and travel.”

On the work front, Priyanka Chopra has Ending Things with Anthony Mackie and It's All Coming Back To Me with Celine Dion. She will be seen in Russo Brothers’ Prime Video series Citadel, alongside Richard Madden. She also has Farhan Akhtar's Jee Le Zaraa with Alia Bhatt and Katrina Kaif.

Post the release of the Vishnuvardhan directorial Shershaah, the lead pair Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani made headlines for their chemistry both on-screen and off it too. In fact, with the audience taking an immense liking to the film, filmmakers made a beeline to sign the two on for new ventures. One such venture was the quirky film tentatively titled Adal Badal, which revolved around the concept of soul transfers. In fact, both Sid and Kiara had read the concept note and were pretty kicked to start the project. However, now we hear that the said film has run into trouble.

As per a source close to the developments, Bollywood Hungama has exclusively learnt that the project has now been put on the back burner. Revealing details, the source informed Bollywood Hungama, “Yes, Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani were very keen on doing the film. In fact, the quirky premise of Adal Badal intrigued them both, and they even gave the makers a green light to go ahead with the development of a script for the venture. Unfortunately, even before the venture could take off it seems to have been grounded with no takers for the film.” Further talking about why Adal Badal has been put on the back burner for now, the source continues, “No one in the industry is ready to bankroll the venture. It isn’t because of the lead pair, but instead, it is due to the rather unconventional storyline. Despite its quirkiness and novelty, in the current state, the industry is in, nobody wants to take a gamble and risk big monies on an untested formula.”

With no investors ready to take a gamble on producing the venture, it seems like the venture will eventually be dropped. Interestingly though, for fans who have been wanting to see the two together on screen again, the buzz is that Sid and Kiara will soon move onto the Dharma Productions venture that will topline them in the cast. In fact, reports claim that the two are contemplating starting work on this untitled venture rather soon.

As for Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani, both actors have an impressive lineup ahead. While Sidharth has Yodha and Mission Majnu, Kiara has Govinda Naam Mera, RC15, and the Kartik Aaryan starrer Satyaprem Ki Katha.

Because the “SMTOWN WONDERLAND 2022” event itself has been cancelled, there will be no livestream of the red carpet either. We ask for fans’ understanding.”

President Yoon Suk Yeol has officially announced the mourning period from October 30 – November 4 amid the Itaewon case.

Filmmaker Subhash Ghai's iconic song 'Choli Ke Pecche Kya Hai' from Khalnayak made its way to the White House, submerging the United States' presidential residence in Indian music! 'Choli Ke Peeche' is still the heart of every celebration and mesmerises people.

Poorna Jagannathan, who is seen in Mindy Kaling's show Never Have I Ever, was one of the attendees. She shared a clip of people dancing on the tunes of the song at the White House Diwali Party this year. The filmmaker tweeted about it mentioning, "Happy to see CHOLI KE PEECHHE song being played at White House Washington n Poorna Jagannathan dancing there. Especially when it faced a lot of backlash by social n political protests back then during its release in 1993. Good work stays for long. I feel blessed."

He also stated, "I am grateful for all the love that people continue to shower on my work."

Reminiscing the making he shared how 'Choli Ke Peeche' was actually picked from popular folk songs from Eastern India, he said, "We had never imagined that the song would receive social and political backlash. 1 crore cassettes were sold just within a week of its release, this led to envy from the industry and the song was labelled to be vulgar and faced criticism. When the movie was released, a leading newspaper mentioned that the song is beautifully depicted and is one of the iconic scenes of Indian cinema. When I myself went to see the audience's reaction, they were purely awestruck. It was also picked up by many dancing workshops in schools. It became an iconic song for many people, including celebrities. One can realise the efforts went into composing the song and the negativity we dealt with when a section of people reacted to the song, but today the same people are in admiration. That's the beauty of art we live in. Sometimes you might feel that you have done wrong but with time it turns out to be a classic. I feel blessed that this song has become so iconic that it's being played globally including the White House in Washington DC wherein Poorna can be seen enjoying it."

The song originally featured Madhuri Dixit, Neena Gupta and Sanjay Dutt.

It is this love and connection that I share with all of you, that gives me the strength to deal with the seemingly unending challenges that life throws at me. A few months back I was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition called Myositis. I was hoping to share this after it had gone into remission. But it is taking a little longer than I hoped. I am slowly realising that we don’t always need to put up a strong front. Accepting this vulnerability is something that I am still struggling with. The doctors are confident that I will make a complete recovery very soon. I have had good days and bad days…. physically and emotionally…. and even when it feels like I can’t handle one more day of this, somehow that moment passes. I guess it can only mean that I am one more day closer to recovery.

I love you.. THIS TOO SHALL PASS."

Upon hearing the news, several celebrities wished her speedy recovery. "Get well soon Sam. Sending you all the strength," wrote Jr NTR on Twitter, who has shared the screen space with Samantha in films  including Brindavanam and Jantha Garage.

When we asked Javed if she ever felt uncomfortable in her outfit, the model said, “sometimes” without any hesitation to admit it.

I have no shame, to be very honest.”

Aisa kuch naya to dikh nahi jaega (I don’t feel shy. Even if I experience some wardrobe malfunction, I will not be bothered. You all have seen it, there is nothing new).”

Having spun magic on the box office with his last film Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2, Kartik Aaryan seems to be in a ‘transformative’ mood. For his ready-for-release eerie film Freddy directed by Shashanka Ghosh, Kartik had to gain considerable weight to give a ‘weighty’ performance as a dentist on a rampage.

A well-informed source reveals, “Freddy is Kartik Aaryan’s most challenging role to date. He plays a dark eerie twisted character which will shock audiences.” Kartik’s character is apparently as grey as Shah Rukh’s Baazigar and Darr.

Since Kartik had to play a character older than his actual age, Kartik insisted on bulking himself up.

“The director suggested prosthetics. But Kartik wanted no artificiality in his acting ambit on this occasion. Freddy is as raw and real as it can get. And Kartik wanted the character to look as determinedly authentic as possible,” says the source.

Was it tough for Kartik to put on the kilos? “Not at all. He only had to tuck into his mother’s cooking for a few weeks to bulk up,” says the source.

The Bhediya mania has begun! Jio Studios and Dinesh Vijan’s creature comedy has been the talk of the town ever since its thrilling trailer, and now, the makers released the first song 'Thumkeshwari' on Friday.

While interacting with the media, Varun Dhawan said that his aim in life was to do 'paisa-vasool' films. “My only aim in life, after I became an actor, is that the public should enjoy it. I don’t want to give ‘gyan’, I just want the audience to enjoy it and that they feel my work is ‘paisa vasool’. This film is total paisa vasool and Amar has done top-class VFX, he’s put in a lot of effort in this one. We will not disappoint you, you’ll be proud of us, and we’ll bring the public back to the theatres with this one,” he said.

Speaking about the single-screen audience and the mass appeal, the actor added, “I was dying for this. We spent two in the lockdown, at home. My film Coolie No. 1 released during that time. I remember how I was praying that we could release it in Gaiety Galaxy, but we couldn’t. I was craving to hear this (fans’ roaring reaction). This theatre plays a significant role in my life. This is where I learnt how to whistle and have fun while watching a film. Thank you for this kind of reception.”

Bigg Boss OTT fame Uorfi Javed often makes headlines for wearing bold clothes in public. From tender petals of flowers to sharp edges of razors; there is hardly any object which has not been a part of Uorfi’s outfit. Being widely recognised as a celebrity, netizens often compare her dressing style with Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh. And, when Bollywood Hungama asked her to describe the actor’s style in one word, she gave us an interesting answer.

Though she did not summarise Ranveer Singh’s fashion sense in one word, Javed asserted, “I think I am female Ranveer Singh and he is male Uorfi Javed.” Not only this, we also asked Javed, if she ever felt uncomfortable in any of her outfits. In her honest response, the social media star did not hesitate to say, “sometimes”.

She further added, “Aise jhuth toh nahi bolungi, lekin kabhi kabhi (I won’t lie. I do get uncomfortable sometimes). But I am very comfortable in my body. I have no shame, to be very honest.” As she continued, she added, Mujey itni koi sharam nahi aati kisi cheex se. Agar kabhi kuch wardrobe malfunction bhi ho gaya toh mujey ghant** farak nahi padta (I don’t feel shy. Even if I experience some wardrobe malfunction, I will not be bothered).”

Apart from being a contestant in Bigg Boss OTT, Uorfi has been a part of various TV shows, including Uorfi Bade Bhaiyya Ki Dulhania, Meri Durga, Bepannaah and Puncch Beat Season 2. She was recently seen in the music video titled ‘Haye Haye Yeh Majboori’.
