As per recent reports, Malaika and Amrita Arora’s father, Anil Mehta, reached out to his daughters just hours before his passing. India Today shared that during the emotional call, Anil expressed to them, “I’m sick and tired,” a statement revealed by sources close to the family.

Although she and Anil were divorced, Joyce Arora, the mother of the actresses, allegedly told the authorities that they had been living together for the last few years.  On the day of the incident, Joyce explained that Anil would usually spend his mornings reading the newspaper on their balcony. However, on September 11, she found his slippers in the living room but couldn’t locate him on the balcony as usual. Hearing a commotion from outside, she leaned over to discover their building’s watchman calling for help. At that moment, Joyce realized that something tragic had occurred.

Joyce added that Anil wasn’t experiencing any serious medical conditions, although having some knee pain.

DCP Crime Branch Raj Tilak Roshan confirmed to the media that the situation was under investigation, and it appeared to be a suicide “at prima facie,” though further inquiries were still ongoing.

Malaika Arora later issued a heartfelt statement on Wednesday evening, announcing her father’s passing. The emotional message read: “We are deeply heartbroken to announce the loss of our beloved father, Anil Mehta. He was a kind and gentle soul, a devoted grandfather, a loving husband, and our dearest friend. Our family is in profound shock, and we kindly ask for privacy during this difficult time. We are grateful for your understanding, support, and respect.”

Several close friends and family, including Kareena Kapoor, Karisma Kapoor, Arbaaz Khan, Arjun Kapoor, Arhaan Khan, Kim Sharma, and Shibani Dandekar, rushed to support the Arora family in their time of grief.

Kareena Kapoor, known for her impeccable off-duty style, didn’t disappoint with her recent appearance. She chose a classic white button-down shirt with full sleeves, featuring crisp collars and buttoned cuffs. The clean, white fabric provided a fresh and sophisticated base for her outfit.

Kareena tucked her shirt neatly into blue denim jeans, creating a sleek and flattering silhouette. A black belt cinched her waist, adding a touch of style to the look. To elevate her outfit, she accessorized with white heels that complemented the overall silhouette. A pair of black sunglasses and a white bag kept her look coordinated and added a cool edge.

Her makeup was understated yet striking, with a bold red lip as the focal point. The rest of her makeup was kept subtle, emphasizing her natural beauty. She completed her look with her hair neatly tied in a bun, adding a touch of elegance to her casual attire.

Saif Ali Khan and Kareena Kapoor Khan recently made a stylish appearance in the city, where they were hailed as Bollywood’s ‘power couple’ by the paparazzi. The duo, who had been enjoying a summer vacation with their children, Jeh and Taimur, abroad, returned to India a few days ago to celebrate Saif’s birthday with family. During a recent outing, the couple was spotted leaving a venue together, and Saif shared a light-hearted exchange with the media.

In a video clip, the Vikram Vedha actor is seen heading towards the exit when a photographer enthusiastically commented, “Aag laga diya bhai.” Amused by the compliment, Saif humorously replied, “20 saal ke baad bol raha hai aag laga diya Bollywood mein. (It’s been 20 years, and now you’re saying I killed it in Bollywood.)” When another paparazzo added, “Nahi sir, aap har picture me aag laga dete ho,” Saif chuckled and responded, “Better!” He then joined Kareena, who was waiting for him, as the paparazzi dubbed them the ‘Power couple.’ After posing for a moment, Saif quipped, “Everybody is a power couple,” to which Kareena agreed, before they departed in their luxurious car.

In another clip, the couple looked effortlessly chic as they posed for the cameras. Kareena opted for a formal ensemble, pairing a white shirt with gray flared pants and high heels. She completed her look with black sunglasses, loose hair, and minimal makeup. Saif, on the other hand, sported a short black kurta with matching loose pants, black chunky boots, and sunglasses.

The video received much love from fans online, with one user commenting, “The Most Beautiful Versatile Empowering Multi Talented Artists Couple Saif & Kareena. Stay Positively Blessed. Lots of love and smiles to Saif, Kareena, Taimur, Jeh, and family.” Another referred to them as a “Royal couple.”

On the professional front, Saif Ali Khan will next be seen in *Devara: Part 1* alongside N. T. Rama Rao Jr. and Janhvi Kapoor. Kareena Kapoor Khan is set to star in Rohit Shetty’s multi-starrer action film *Singham Again,* which is slated for a Diwali 2024 release.

Kareena Kapoor’s Instagram can seem like a gift that keeps on giving when it comes to fashion. The actress occasionally spoils us with incredible fashion moments that should be documented in our style books. Kareena has provided us with plenty of inspiration, ranging from classic style to seductive glitz. She recently upped her bling game when she attended a Bulgari event. The actress looked stunning in a Vivienne Westwood gown with gorgeous glitter detailing. The off-the-shoulder style was completed with a corset bodice and flowing pattern that made this look simply a masterpiece. Kareena balanced all the glamor with pink glam paired with fresh blush and light shades.

While Kareena may have worn this ever-so-gorgeous look, Margot Robbie also wore the exact same outfit for her Barbie movie ads. He paired the look with matte nude glam and straight poker suits.

It is undeniably Kareena Kapoor’s bling age.  During the Vogue Ball of Arabia held earlier, the actress took the glitzy style to the next level in a gorgeous Sabyasachi number. Her figure-hugging sparkly teal dress was the perfect choice to dress the occasion. Her look impressed, from the plunging neckline to the monochromatic style. Kareena also nailed it in the beauty department with her signature glam act and baggy pants. A dramatic train at the back added to her overall look.

Rajesh A Krishnan’s feature debut Lootcase was an enjoyable comedy that chugged along like a slow train. Krishnan’s second movie Crew, about three air hostesses who get tired of being ripped off and decide to do the ripping, moves at jet speed.

Geeta (Tabu), Jasmine (Kareena Kapoor Khan) and Divya (Kriti Sanon) work for Kohinoor Airlines, which has stacked up massive debts under its flashy owner Vijay Walia (Saswata Chatterjee). The professional poise expected from the women is in serious danger of cracking under the pressure of unpaid salaries and mounting bills. Kohinoor is going to go belly-up, forcing the women to resort to crime.

The feelings of shame are as transient as the benefits of working illegally are many. Mala (Trupti Khamkar), the industrious airport inspector, brings chaos.

It is most definitely not a coincidence if there are any similarities to another bankrupt airline that was run by a flashy billionaire who struggled to pay his salaries. Crew members administer just justice for the airline’s staff members. Underpaid Native Americans who must shovel dirt while their bosses live lavish lifestyles would applaud the women’s scheme to become wealthy quickly.

This film was made without harming any humans or animals, a cheeky disclaimer tells us. The airline’s moniker is a tongue-in-cheek joke that ends up being funny.

The screenplay by Nidhi Mehra and Mehul Suri gets right to the point, introducing the characters’ particular quirks before demonstrating how well they work as a team. Because of her age, Geeta exudes authority and is a pill-popping worrier. Jasmine isn’t beyond breaking the law to follow her conviction that greed is morally righteous, particularly when those who are greedy are inherently nice. Divya’s interactions with customs officer Jaiveer (Diljit Dosanjh) reveal her secret strength.

The film is witty, sensual, and honest without going too far in being sentimental or condemning. A fantastic trio of performers, who radiate relief at being assigned parts that play to their own strengths, give the crew an extra boost.

Both separately and collectively, Tabu, Kriti Sanon, and Kareena Kapoor Khan are incredibly entertaining. Their chemistry is so well-established that they are even able to sell an absurd yet implausible scheme to serve Vijay Walia his due.

It’s amazing that anyone else in the film gets noticed, considering the trio’s combined wattage, but they do. Buddy comedies typically feature minimal action for their female protagonists and are primarily a man’s domain. Crew disproves this notion by giving its female protagonists equal share of the rewards while saving a bit extra for their male characters.

There are noteworthy walk-on roles like Kulbhushan Kharbanda as Jasmine’s devoted grandfather, Diljit Dosanjh as Divya’s dashing date, and Kapil Sharma as Geeta’s supporting husband Arun. In a cool position, Charu Shankar was formerly a stewardess.

A few of the 125-minute film’s best lines and funniest moments go by. After captivating us with its casting and portraying its ideas well, the crew occasionally moves too quickly to get where it’s going. Krishnan, however, makes sure that his heroines—intelligent but not arrogant, selfish but also compassionate, and constantly watching out for one another as women often do—won’t be quickly forgotten.
