Netflix megahit series Money Heist will come to close with season 5. The fifth and final season announcement was made on July 31. The cast and crew will begin production on August 3 in Denmark before moving to Spain and Portugal.

Two new cast members have been added to the final season of the Spanish juggernaut - Miguel Ángel Silvestre from Sense8, and Patrick Criad. "We always try that our opponents be charismatic, intelligent, shiny," creator Álex Pina told Entertainment Weekly. "In this case, in a pure war film genre, we also look for characters whose intelligence can measure up against The Professor’s."

Speaking about the final season, Pina added, "We are moving from a chess game – a mere intellectual strategy – to a war strategy: attack and contention. This new goal raises the stakes while keeping the story fresh and maintaining the adrenaline that has always run through Money Heist. The war they've been pushed to start results in "the most epic part of all the parts we've shot."

The final 10 episodes will also tell the story of Denver's childhood friend Manila played by Belén Cuesta. Teasing the face-off between Alicia Sierra and The Professor, Pina said, "Adrenaline is within Money Heist’s DNA. Every thirty seconds things take place and disrupt the characters, a turn of the screw to the action. The adrenaline mixed with feelings arising from absolutely complex, magnetic, unforeseeable characters will continue until the end of the heist to the Bank of Spain. However, the gang will now be pushed into irreversible situations, into a wild war: it is the most epic part of all the parts we’ve shot."

A few days back, late Bollywood actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s father KK Singh filed an FIR against Rhea Chakraborty for abetment of suicide. Following the FIR, the Bihar Police got in touch with the Mumbai Police who have been investigating the case since the beginning and are now themselves carrying out a detailed investigation.

After the FIR, Rhea Chakraborty’s lawyers filed a petition in the Supreme Court seeking a transfer of the FIR to the Mumbai Police. Now, the actress has finally spoken up through a video where she said that she believes in the justice system. “I have immense faith in God and the judiciary. I believe that I will get justice even though a lot of horrible things are being said about me in the electronic media. I refrain from commenting on the advice of my lawyers as the matter is subjudice. Satyameva Jayate. The truth shall prevail,” a teary-eyed Rhea is heard saying in the video.

Sushant Singh Rajput Death case: More damning evidence against Rhea Chakraborty

The Sushant Singh Rajput death case gets murkier by the day. Some aggressive news channels are openly calling it a murder. In the last development the Directorate of Enforcement (ED) has registered the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) case in Sushant Singh Rajput's death case.

In the meanwhile Sushant’s security guard who was with Sushant until his death alleges that Rhea Chakraborty had gotten rid of Sushant’s almost entire staff team when she came into his life and replaced them with handpicked staffers. The security guard also alleges that Rhea partied with her family friends in Sushant’s home while the owner of the house would be asleep in another room.

“He was constantly unwell and sleeping,” the security guard alleges.

I have tried several times to get in touch with Rhea to get her side of the story. While her phone is on and she receives messages, she refuses to respond.

Hamari Bahu Silk: Zaan Khan plans another protest; says he has sold one of his two cars

The makers of Humari Bahu Silk have not cleared the payments of their actors and crew which has led to a huge outbreak on social media. The actors have worked for close to a year on the show and they have only been paid for a month. Running out of funds to even buy the essentials, the crew including actors like Sarita Joshi and Zaan Khan have requested and protested silently for the makers to pay their dues.

Now, Zaan Khan says he is planning another protest outside one of the new residences of the producer. He further said that he has already sold all that he could including one of his cars. He recently did a commercial but the money won’t last long and has no money left to pay the rent. During the initial days of the lockdown, he had offered help to the crew members but if he does not get paid now, he will have to move back to his hometown in Bhopal. His parents have been insisting him to come back home and he will have no other choice left if things don’t take a turn for better.

People from the industry have also supported his idea of silent protest and think that the makers should do something about it rather than staying mum.

Akshay Kumar to start shooting his action-packed digital series in second half of 2021

In March 2019, Akshay Kumar made a fiery announcement that he would be starring in a digital show called The End. This would be his first series Amazon Prime Original thriller series. He had put himself on fire as a part of the stunts planned for the announcement day. As it was reported earlier, the plan was to take the show on the floor by December 2020 and Akshay Kumar was to join by January 2021.

But, the coronavirus pandemic played the spoilsport. Since schedules have been pushed ahead amid the pandemic and lockdown, the makers are now looking to the roll by the second half of 2021. Vikram Malhotra of Abundantia Entertainment told a daily it will take a while for everything to get back to normal. He said that since Akshay Kumar has prior work commitments too, they are hoping for it to roll in 2021 now.

He said that they've taken their time to build the material, promising that it will be mounted on a scale that will be befitting for Akshay Kumar.

Akshay Kumar had earlier said, “I have always believed in bringing innovation to my work and throughout my career, have tried to tell unique stories, work with break-through talent and be part of disruptive and high-quality story-telling. Together, Abundantia and I have created some of my most memorable roles in films like Baby, Airlift and Toilet-Ek Prem Katha and their passion towards their films and projects is incredible. From the very concept of the show, I am working very closely with Vikram and his team as they create this compelling and highly intriguing story. I can’t wait to start rolling for this action-adventure series that will be Amazon Original for global audiences. The digital world excited me and I am delighted to make my streaming debut with this show. And if I were to make a small confession here, it was my son Aarav who suggested that I make my digital debut as that’s what the youth is hooked onto. On this medium, I want to create something extraordinary and connect with them.”

Being envisioned at an unprecedented scale and cinematic experience, the show promises to bring in the next level of the action genre.

“I’ve been a part of the film industry for twenty years and done about 100 films. But nothing I’ve done so far has given me this kind of inner peace and satisfaction. I now feel that I migrated to Mumbai to be an actor so one day I could help these migrants. I feel this was something I was born to do. I feel blessed that God has chosen me for this mission,” Sonu Sood told Bollywood Hungama recently on helping migrants.

In the upcoming episode of The Kapil Sharma Show, Sonu shared, “While arranging for travel, I used to enquire about when they will come back and whether or not they will come back at all. To which I used to get a standard response saying if they get a job they will come, else they will try and figure something in their own hometown. This got me thinking. Being from the engineering background myself, I started work on a platform along with my team, to figure a way in which these people could get a job through an app. It took us 2-3 months to build this and through this app, anyone, from any state, can upskill themselves, or even find a suitable job in another state. By the time this episode goes on air, around 1 – 1.5 lakh people would have found themselves a job.”

The real reason why A R Rahman gets less work in Bollywood

Not gangeism, or groupism. If the composing wizard A R Rahman is kept out of Bollywood’s bastion it is because of his insistence on publishing rights. A top-notch musician spills the beans. “There was a time when every major director in Bollywood wanted to work with A R Rahman. They still do. But there is a problem. Rahman insists on retaining the publishing rights of his soundtracks. This right, no producer would give to any musician, at least not in India.”

The musician who has worked with the biggest banners says Rahman is wrong to blame a ‘gang’ in Bollywood for his relative scarcity of work. “Way back in 2003 Shah Rukh Khan and Karan Johar offered Kal Ho Na Ho to Rahman. When he asked for publishing rights they quickly signed Shankar-Ehaan-Loy for Kal Ho Na Ho. And Karan Johar’s Dharma Productions never worked with Rahman.”

The musician says there is nothing unfair about this. “Cinema is a business like any other. Why shouldn’t Karan Johar safeguard his business interests? I am not saying Rahman asking for publishing rights is wrong. But in the Hindi music industry, the immortal legends Lata Mangeshkar, Kishore Kumar, Mohammed Rafi and Asha Bhosle didn’t get publishing rights. For Rahman to expect it is impractical and unreal.”

When I approached Rahman to know more about the “gangs” of Bollywood he has spoken about, he responded with, “How are you? Our team internally felt this news is now done ..we are moving on ...Let’s catch up and do a general one next month if you are still interested. Wishing you the best...take care.”

Sushant Singh Rajput Death Case: Bihar Police records statements of Ankita Lokhande, cook and bank manager

Actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s death is taking a new turn. The Dil Bechara actor passed away more than a month ago. He died by suicide on June 14 and was found hanging in his Bandra apartment. For over a month, Mumbai Police is investigating his death. Now, Bihar Police has also started their independent investigation after an FIR for abetment to suicide was filed against Sushant's girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty and her family by Sushant's father Krishna Kumar Singh.

A four-member team of police left from Patna on July 28 to question Rhea Chakraborty and her family.  On July 30, three banks were visited by the cops where Sushant had his bank accounts. They even recorded a statement of the bank manager. Even his cook and his former girlfriend Ankita Lokhande’s statements were recorded on Thursday. This was to corroborate the claims made by KK Singh and Sushant’s sister Mitu Singh that around Rs 15 crores was transferred from Sushant’s accounts over the past year to different accounts.

Earlier this week, Sushant’s father KK Singh filed an FIR against Sushant’s girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty and her family for abetment to suicide. Sanjay Kumar Singh, inspector general, central range, revealed that an FIR was lodged at the Rajiv Nagar police station in Patna against Rhea and her family members Indrajit Chakraborty, Sandhya Chakraborty, Shruti Modi, Showik Chakraborty, and others. It was filed under Sections 341, 342, 380, 406,420, 306, and 120 (B) of the Indian Penal Code.

Mumbai Police has recorded statements of over 40 people including Aditya Chopra, Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Mahesh Bhatt, Rhea Chakraborty, among others in relation to Sushant Singh Rajput’s death.

Ankita Lokhande breaks her silence on Sushant Singh Rajput’s death, claims he was not depressed

Sushant Singh Rajput passed away on June 14 after he was found hanging in his Bandra apartment in Mumbai. His ex-girlfriend Ankita Lokhande has finally spoken on his death and cites that he could not have taken his life and that he wasn't depressed.

Speaking to Republic TV on July 30, Ankita said, Sushant was not the guy who could commit suicide. We have seen worse situations when we were together. He was a happy-go-lucky guy.".

Ankita Lokhande and Sushant Singh Rajput met on the sets of Pavitra Rishta TV show and were in a relationship until 2016. "How much ever I know him, he wasn’t a depressed guy. I have not seen a person like Sushant, a guy who used to write his own dreams, he had a diary... He had his 5-year plan — what he wants to do, how he will look, etc. And exactly after 5 years, he had fulfilled them. And when things like ‘depression’ are used after his name... it is heartbreaking. He might be upset, anxious, yes, but depression is a big word. Calling someone ‘bipolar’ is a big thing," she added.

"I can say that he was not depressed. He came from a small town. He established himself on his own. He has taught me so many things, he taught me acting. Does anyone know who Sushant was? Everyone is writing their own portrayal of how 'depressed' he was, it hurts reading all of this," she continued.

She further said, "He found happiness in small things. He wanted to do farming, I know this for sure... he told me agar kuch nai hua to main apni short film bana lunga. He was not a depressed guy, not at all. I don't know what the situation was... but I will keep repeating this. I don't want people to remember him as a depressed guy, he was a hero. He was an inspiration."

On Thursday, July 30, Bihar Police visited Ankita Lokhande's residence to record her statement in Sushant Singh Rajput's death case. She had also given her statement to the Mumbai Police. Both entities are separately investigating the death now after Sushant's father filed an FIR on abetment to suicide against Rhea Chakraborty and her family.

Rhea Chakraborty tells Supreme Court that she was in live-in relationship with Sushant Singh Rajput

Actor Sushant Singh Rajput passed away more than a month ago. He died by suicide on June 14 and was found hanging in his Bandra apartment. The untimely demise of the actor shook the entire nation. As Mumbai Police is currently investigating his death, Bihar Police has also started their independent investigation after an FIR for abetment to suicide was filed against Sushant's girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty and her family by Sushant's father Krishna Kumar Singh.

Rhea Chakraborty, in her plea to Supreme Court, said that Sushant Singh Rajput's father Krishna Kumar Singh has used his influence in order to rope her in for the death of Sushant after filing the FIR in Patna, Bihar. The petition filed by her on July 29 seeks transfer of the FIR from Patna to Mumbai where she alleged that she has been falsely implicated.

In her petition, Rhea Chakraborty revealed she was in live-in relationship with Sushant Singh Rajput since a year and upto June 8, 2020 when she temporarily shifted to her own apartment in Mumbai. The petition cited that she is in trauma since the death of Sushant and has been receiving rape and death threats continuously. It also mentioned the complaint she filed against the threats received on social media.

The petition further stated that the deceased was in depression and was on anti-depressants. Bandra Police had filed unnatural death report and the cause leading to the tragedy is currently being examined.

Rhea Chakraborty was summoned by Mumbai Police and recorded the statement under section 175 of CrpC. Some of the forensic reports are still awaited. She cited that under the section 177 of CrpC, every offence shall be inquired into and tried by the magistrate within the local jurisdiction.

She said thay there's iota of truth in the FIR filed by Sushant's father and cites that there can't be an impartial investigation in Bihar and hence, seeks transfer of probe to Mumbai.

On July 30, Lawyer Alka Priya, who filed the PIL, was told by the court to let the police to do the investigation. She stated that Sushant had done a lot of work for children and even facilitated their training at NASA and therefore, his death should be investigated by CBI. Chief Justice S Bobde told the lawyer that the case had nothing to do with whether Sushant was a good or bad person. The court dismissed the CBI probe plea.

Two days ago, Sushant’s father KK Singh filed an FIR against Sushant’s girlfriend Rhea Chakraborty and her family for abetment to suicide. Sanjay Kumar Singh, inspector general, central range, revealed that an FIR was lodged at the Rajiv Nagar police station in Patna against Rhea and her family including Indrajit Chakraborty, Sandhya Chakraborty, Shruti Modi, Showik Chakraborty and others. It was filed under Sections 341, 342, 380, 406,420, 306 and 120 (B) of the Indian Penal Code.

A four team member of police left from Patna on July 28 to question Rhea Chakraborty and her family.  Mumbai Police has recorded statements of over 40 people including Aditya Chopra, Sanjay Leela Bhansali, Mahesh Bhatt, Rhea Chakraborty, among others.

Guinness World Records awards Shakuntala Devi with certificate for ‘fastest human computation’ four decades later

On Thursday, a day before the release of Shakuntala Devi: The Human Computer, the Guinness World Records honoured Indian Mathematical genius Shakuntala Devi with the long overdue title for ‘fastest human computation’. The official certification  comes four decades after Shakuntala Devi achieved the feat. 

The feat was achieved by Shakuntala Devi on June 18, 1980 when she successfully multiplied two randomly selected 13 digit numbers in 28 seconds at the Imperial College in London. The certification was received by Shakuntala Devi’s daughter Anupama Banerji. 

"It is an overwhelming moment for me to be able to receive this honor on my mother’s behalf. To be conferred with the certificate of ‘Fastest human computation’ is an exciting feat that only my mother was capable of,” said Anupama Banerji. She further expressed, "I am glad that I had the opportunity to provide significant inputs while developing the biopic, Shakuntala Devi, to ensure that people get to know my mother the way she was in real life – full of life and truly amazing. Her mad love and passion for maths is well-known, she always wanted to take this a level ahead. This is exactly the kind of recognition that would have made her extremely happy and thoroughly proud of her mathematical abilities which far surpassed anyone else’s."

"While shooting for Shakuntala Devi in London, we would meet Anupama Banerji often. In my conversations with her, I realised that the late Shakuntala Devi, didn’t have an official certification from Guinness World Records - it wasn’t the norm then. Vikram Malhotra and I were therefore very keen to make this happen and along with the Amazon Team, we reached out to the Guinness World Records team who provided us with every support. I am thrilled that Anupama will now have the certificate to cherish forever. This is my tribute to the legend,” said actor Vidya Balan on essaying the role of Shakuntala Devi in her biopic.

She added, "I am glad to be part of this interesting journey and being able to witness such a ‘1 in a 100 years’ woman who wore multiple hats being felicitated for her exemplary work. To be able to portray someone who continues to inspire us is truly an honour for me."

Meanwhile, Sanya Malhotra will be seen playing the role of Anupama Banerji. The film directed by Anu Menon also stars Jisshu Sengupta and Amit Sadh and will be released worldwide on Amazon Prime Videos on July 31.
