Janhvi Kapoor
Janhvi Kapoor and her rumoured boyfriend Shikhar Pahariya were seen at the Mumbai airport yesterday. While they entered the airport premises separately, the paparazzi spotted them meeting inside after the security check. That the duo has been a couple has been the talk of the town for a while. Their public appearances often fuel this speculation. They previously visited the Tirumala temple in Tirupati. Although it was then suggested that they were engaged, a source, reportedly close to the actor, was quick to debunk the rumours. On the work front, Kapoor who was last seen in Bawaal, opposite Varun Dhawan, will now be seen in Mr and Mrs Mahi, opposite Rajkummar Rao. She also has Devara with Jr NTR and Saif Ali Khan in the pipeline.

Ray’s film moved Scorsese
Martin Scorsese was just a boy when he first saw Satyajit Ray’s Pather Panchali, and it was from that point on that cinema opened to him “many different worlds”. Scorsese says, decades later, he drew from that experience for his new film, Killers of the Flower Moon. “I wonder what it would be like to be a colonised person and a wide part of a colonised world that you live in,” he said in response to questions on whether his film will resonate in countries like India with a colonial past. The 80-year-old said he saw a dubbed English version of Pather Panchali on television in New York. “[I was] introduced to another way of thinking.”
