Newsmakers of the week

Sushmita Sen: Sushmita Sen recently revealed that she suffered a ‘massive heart attack’ a few days back. The actress went live on Instagram and said, “I know a lot of you will stop going to the gym and say ‘see, going to the gym did not help her’. But that is not good. It did help me. I survived a very, very big heart attack. It was massive heart attack, with 95% blockage in one of my main artery. I survived because I have kept an active lifestyle. I am very lucky to be on the other side.”

Saif Ali Khan: Saif Ali Khan recently grabbed attention after he slammed a paparazzi for entering his building premises while clicking him and Kareena Kapoor Khan. It was later reported that the actor was firing his security guard and taking legal action against paparazzi. Saif issued a statement and cleared the air.

The actor’s statement read, “The building security guard is not being sacked, it is not his fault and neither is anybody taking legal action against the paps because that is how we want to do things. However, the fact is that they did barge inside private property through the gate, past the security guard and completely invaded our space and put 20 cameras and lights on us as if it’s their right to do that, and this is wrong behavior and everyone needs to be in limits.”

Saif added, “We cooperate with the paparazzi all the time and we understand but outside the house, outside the gate, otherwise, where does one draw the line? That is why I made the comment about the bedroom because they had already crossed one line, so how many lines does one have to cross before it’s utterly ridiculous.” The actor also mentioned about star kids getting papped ‘doing extracurricular classes or any class’.

Deepika Padukone: On Thursday, Deepika Padukone announced that she will be one of the presenters at Oscars 2023. The actress will be joined by Dwayne Johnson, Riz Ahmed, Michael B Jordan, Glenn Close, Troy Kotsur, Jennifer Connelly, Emily Blunt, Samuel L Jackson, Donnie Yen, Zoe Saldana, Melissa McCarthy, Ariana DeBose, Jonathan Majors, Questlove, and Janelle Monae.

Dilip Joshi: It was recently reported that someone called the police saying that Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah’s Dilip Joshi’s house was surrounded by men with ‘weapons and guns’. The actor reacted to the rumours. Speaking with Hindustan Times, Dilip Joshi said, “The news is fake. Aisa kuch nahi hua. I don’t know where it started and how. This news has been in circulation for two days and I was astonished to hear it.”

Dilip added, “Bhala ho uska jisne yeh galat khabar falai. Mujhe itne logon ke phone aaye mera haal chaal puchne ke liye (May God bless the person who spread this news. I received calls from so many people to inquire about my well-being) So many old friends and extended family called. It was good catching up with them (laughs) Due to this, I found out how people love me. So many people were worried about me and my family, it was heartening.”

Benny Dayal: Singer Benny Dayal was injured after a drone hit the back of his head during his performance in Chennai. Benny later shared a video on Instagram and thanked fans for their prayers. The singer said in the video, “The drone fans, they hit and bruised the back of my head a little bit. Two of my fingers got completely bruised. But that’s all fine. I think I am going to recover from this much faster. Thanks to all for love and prayers.”

Sheezan Khan: On Saturday, Sheezan Khan was granted bail by the Vasai court in Tunisha Sharma’s death case. On Sunday, he was released from jail.
