Have you heard? House khaas

Priyanka Chopra Jonas has reportedly sold off two apartments around Andheri’s Lokhandwala Complex to director Abhishek Chaubey. The deal fetched her about Rs 6 crore

It seems Priyanka Chopra Jonas is offloading some of the real estate inventory in her name. The actor-producer has reportedly sold off two apartments around Andheri’s Lokhandwala Complex to director Abhishek Chaubey. The two properties, measuring about 2,300 sq feet collectively, have apparently fetched her about R6 crore. PCJ’s mother, Dr Madhu Chopra, executed the deal on her daughter’s behalf. The houses are located on the ninth floor of Karan Apartments. Abhishek completed the registration for it last month. Last heard, the places were used by Dr Chopra as her clinics when Priyanka and family moved into their plush home at Raj Classic, Versova.

Desi Loki, anyone? 

During a recent interview, Tom Hiddleston, known for playing the role of Loki in the Marvel Universe, was asked which Bollywood actor would play an Indian variant of his character. “Shah Rukh Khan,” the British actor reportedly said, adding, “He would be great. He is a good variant, I think.” Reminiscing the experience of watching Devdas and admiring SRK, he said, “I remember going to see it at my local cinema; it was extraordinary. I have never seen anything like that.”

The slap story

The brouhaha over Nana Patekar’s slapgate incident in Varanasi, where he is shooting for director Anil Sharma’s Journey, continues. After the actor and director clarified their stance, the fan opened up about the incident. He reportedly explained that when he saw the film shoot was under way, he waited for a while. “After some time, I asked him for a picture. He refused, hit me, and told me to leave,” the man has been quoted as saying. He also clarified that he was not part of the movie’s cast, and has not contemplated about suing anyone yet.

It’s a wrap!

Yami Gautam Dhar, who is on a high with the back-to-back success of her films, including the recently released OMG 2, has wrapped up the shooting of her next film. Details of the project are being closely guarded. Sharing the update along with a picture on social media, Yami wrote, “Wrapped up one of the most important films of my career. Thank you to the entire direction, production team, our wonderful crew at B62 Studios, to the local people, security forces, and authorities in Kashmir who took such brilliant care of us throughout the schedule.” 

Whose voice is that now?

Recently, a Kaun Banega Crorepati clip with a fake voiceover asking a question about Congress leader Kamal Nath went viral. The channel broadcasting the Amitabh Bachchan-hosted quiz show issued a statement condemning the manipulation, saying, “We are actively addressing the matter with the Cyber Crime Cell.” The question in this instance was: In 2018, how many farmers had their loans waived off by the Kamal Nath-led government in MP? The video led to accusations of bias against the show and the channel.
