Steer clear Stree

Shraddha Kapoor's jewellery brand faces backlash for allegedly selling bootleg versions of iconic designs from high-end luxury brands like Cartier. Social media users and design enthusiasts have highlighted striking similarities between her products and signature pieces from renowned labels, accusing the brand of blatant plagiarism. Critics have pointed out that while the website claims the designs are original, several products, including their nail bangle bracelet, replicate a Cartier design. The brand has yet to release a statement addressing these allegations.

In the game business

Abhishek Bachchan has partnered with the ICC-sanctioned European T20 Premier League (ETPL), a privately-owned franchise tournament involving three member cricket nations - Ireland, Scotland, and the Netherlands. As a co-owner, Abhishek has invested in the league, which will run from July 15 to August 3. The tournament will feature top talent from the three nations alongside world-class players. Sharing his excitement, Abhishek said, "Cricket is not just a sport; it's a unifying force that transcends boundaries. With cricket being included in the 2028 Olympics, its popularity will further surge. I'm humbled and excited."
