Exciting time to be an actor: Lara

Actor Lara Dutta Bhupathi is all set to make her OTT debut in an untitled web series and she feels right now is a very exciting time to be an actor because there are work offers in films as well as the digital platform.

“OTT platforms are providing great content to the audience. Now, all the mainstream actors are working in web series. The lines are blurring and now an actor doesn't think in terms of whether he or she wants to concentrate only on films or on digital platform. There is so much content happening. It's a very exciting time to be in the business,” said Lara.

The forthcoming Hotstar web series also features Karan Wahi.

‘I am excited about Abhinandan's biopic. I think the story of Balakot and Indian Air Force needs to be told. When a film like Top Gun gets released in America, an entire generation there gets inspired seeing the strength of their Forces. I feel this is an opportunity for us and also a responsibility to show the amazing work the Indian Air Force has been doing.

The season 13 of the reality show Bigg Boss has been mired in controversies right from its launch. Many organisations, including Confederation Of All India Traders (CAIT) have sought ban on the show, raising objection over the concept of “Bed Friends Forever.” Many have alleged the show is obscene and it maligns Indian culture.

In the wake of the complaint, the Mumbai police has tightened the security outside the show host Salman Khan's house.

According to online portal Bollywood Hungama, 20 people were arrested for protesting outside Salman Khan's house.

Being Cruella was fun: Emma

Actor Emma Stone says her take on the infamous villain in the forthcoming Cruella film will be very distinctive. Set in 1970, Disney's forthcoming live-action Cruella will delve into the backstory of 101 Dalmatians villain Cruella de Vil, and try to find an answer to the question, “How did she get here?”

There will be comparisons with Glenn Close's avatar as the iconic Cruella de Vil in 1996's 101 Dalmatians, but Stone says the time-line of both the films is different. She says, “It comes long before her story. It's a different ball game.”

Earlier this year, Stone stunned fans with a punk-rock inspired interpretation of the character when Disney released an image from the prequel recently.
