B-town buzz: All is well with Rana Daggubati

Huma Qureshi and Rana Daggubati

Huma Qureshi and Rana Daggubati caught up at common friend Swati Shetty's home in Beverly Hills. Shetty formerly headed Indian content operations at Netflix. As the actors were longing for an Indian spread, she invited them over and shared a picture on Instagram. Daggubati was in the news recently for his ill-health. His drastic weight loss further fuelled rumours that he had undergone a kidney transplant, which he denied. He appears to be looking better now.

Qureshi is in the US shooting for Zack Snyder's zombie drama, Army Of The Dead. The film also stars American actor-wrestler, Dave Bautista. Shay Hatten and Snyder are writing the screenplay for the upcoming film which revolves around a zombie outbreak in Las Vegas, when a group of mercenaries takes the ultimate gamble, venturing into the quarantined zone to pull off the greatest heist ever attempted.
