Legendary lyricist Javed Akhtar has given many iconic songs to Hindi cinema. However, did you know Javed Akhtar once refused to work with Karan Johar in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai after writing the title song? Here’s what he shared.

In an interview with comedian Sapan Verma’s YouTube channel, Javed openly talked about the reason for declining to work in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and later regretting it.

I had written the first song for it, but when Karan decided on the title,...

Preity Zinta, one of Bollywood’s most beloved actresses, is central to a financial controversy. Known for films like Dil Se, Kal Ho Naa Ho, and Veer-Zaara, Zinta has often maintained a low profile outside the industry. However, recent allegations claimed that a ₹18 crore loan in her name was written off by the troubled New India Cooperative Bank Ltd., leading to widespread speculation.

The controversy arose after a Moneylife report highlighted alleged corruption within the bank, including mismanagement of corporate loans, many of which became non-performing assets (NPAs). The issue quickly escalated with ₹25 crore loans reportedly approved without informing branch managers.

In response to the claims, Zinta vehemently denied any wrongdoing, calling the reports “fake news” and setting the record straight about her financial dealings with the bank.

As Shah Rukh Khan steps onto the stage at the Locarno Film Festival to receive his career achievement award, it marks another milestone in a vocation that has spanned three decades and redefined Indian cinema on the world stage.

Khan, often referred to by his initials Srk, has been a dominant force in Bollywood since his breakthrough role in the 1993 thriller “Baazigar.” His charisma and versatility quickly established him as a leading man, with romantic comedies like “Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge” (1995) cementing his status as Bollywood’s “King of Romance.”

Throughout the ’90s and early 2000s, Khan’s star power seemed unstoppable. He delivered a string of box office hits, including “Kuch Kuch Hota Hai” (1998), “Devdas” (2002), and “Kal Ho Naa Ho” (2003). These films not only dominated the domestic market but also found significant audiences in the Indian diaspora, helping to expand Bollywood’s global footprint. Notably, his 1998 film “Dil Se...
