We need one film industry: Kangana
Actor Kangana Ranaut says she wants film industries of different states to have a collective identity.
This comes after UP CM Yogi Adityanath said he plans to build the “biggest film city” in UP.
“I applaud this announcement by @myogiadityanath ji. We need many reforms in the film industry, first, we need one big film industry called Indian film industry. We are divided based on many factors, Hollywood films get advantage of this. One industry, but many film cities,” she tweeted.
She added that the best of dubbed regional films don't get pan-India release but dubbed Hollywood films get mainstream release, adding that the trend was “alarming.”
‘Most boys have mothers, don't they? So they do interact with the opposite gender. Maybe what we need are anti-marital rape laws? Perhaps, if you grew up seeing your mother has a choice, her consent matters, you might value that for other women too?’

Actor Shweta Tripathi says the claim that an overwhelming majority of Bollywood is on drugs is an incorrect generalisation, adding that such an assertion is a half-truth.
She said, “I think narratives doing the rounds that half the people of the film industry are drug addicts, female actresses are sleeping around to get work, and outsiders can make their space in the ‘big bad world of cinema’ only after compromising make for great and interesting scripts. But no, that’s not how Bollywood works. Trust me when I say this, no one is forcefully putting drugs in our mouths! If a youngster wants to get into drugs, they will do it anyway — whether in Mumbai or anywhere.”
Dwayne breaks gate manually
Actor and former wrestling champion Dwayne Johnson flaunted his physical strength off screen by ripping the gate off with his bare hands because he did not want to be late to work.
Taking to social media, Dwayne shared a photo of a gate that lay on the ground.
He captioned it: “Not my finest hour, but a man's gotta go to work. We experienced a power outage due to severe storms, causing my front gate not to open. I tried to override the hydraulic system to open the gates, which usually works when power goes out but this time it wouldn't.”
