Ranbir willing to play homosexual

Ranbir Kapoor says that had Pakistani actor Fawad Khan not “opened the door” by playing a homosexual character in Kapoor & Sons, he would have perhaps turned down an offer to play a gay on screen. But now he is receptive to the idea. Asked if he would play a homosexual, Ranbir said, “Sure, but now it's already been done. Now he's (Fawad has) opened the door and it's easy for us to walk through it. But earlier, I must honestly say, I might have turned it down”. He is also willing to play a second lead in a movie but conditions apply. “Suppose tomorrow Rajkumar Hirani offers me the part of Circuit in the new Munna Bhai, I would play it and try my best to do justice”.

Shriya Pilgaonkar is seen using sign language in an ad. For this role she met behavioural expert Sangeeta Gala and took a few guidelines from her. She took a lot of inspiration from Rani Mukherjee as she portrayed a physically challenged character in Black very well.

Gomez takes break from music

Selena Gomez, who was earlier travelling across the world for her Revival tour, has taken a break from music to focus on her health.

A year after she revealed her lupus diagnosis, Gomez on Tuesday, released a statement that she is taking some time off due to complications of the autoimmune disease. She cites “anxiety, panic attacks and depression” as side effects.

“As many of you know, around a year ago I revealed that I have lupus, an illness that can affect people in different ways. I've discovered that anxiety, panic attacks and depression can be side effects of lupus, which can present their own challenges,” she said.

“I want to be proactive and focus on maintaining my health and happiness and have decided that the best way forward is to take some time off. Thank you to all my fans for your support. You know how special you are to me,” she added.
