Have you heard? Farhan Akhtar and Shibani Dandekar to tie the knot?

Farhan Akhtar and Shibani Dandekar

Even though Bollywood is waiting for Alia Bhatt and Ranbir Kapoor to tie the knot, speculation is rife that Farhan Akhtar and Shibani Dandekar will walk down the aisle soon. The couple is reportedly planning a March nuptials in Mumbai. As the third wave of the virus has just begun, it will be a wait-and-watch 
situation about the guest list and scale of celebrations. Those in the know say they don’t want to delay their wedding amid the pandemic and might opt for a low-key and intimate affair. The buzz is that they are now keen to take their relationship to the next level. The two have been together for over three years. Last August, Dandekar tattooed her beau’s name on her neck to mark her birthday. 


Hitting back


Shabana Azmi and Javed Akhtar


Shabana Azmi and Javed Akhtar slammed a section of netizens who tried to defame the veteran lyricist’s great great grandfather and freedom fighter Fazl-e-Haq Khairabadi. After Akhtar raised his voice against a controversial website ‘auctioning’ Muslim women, social media users dragged his ancestors into the conversation. In his tweet, Akhtar stated that he’s appalled with everyone’s silence, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his own. He posted, “The moment I raised my voice against the online auction of women and those glorifying Godse and preaching genocide to the army, police and people, some bigots have started abusing my great great grandfather, a freedom fighter who died in Kala Pani in 1864. What do you say to such idiots (sic)?”

The feasting continues 

Karisma Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor Khan

A day after she gorged on croissants, Kareena Kapoor Khan tucked into sinful desserts. Along with sister Karisma, she relished a bowl of strawberries and cream. Bebo is determined to start 2022 by gorging on whatever her heart desires. While a section of netizens were “scared by her large appetite”, others felt she will “finish off the country’s ration at this rate.” Blame it on the Kapoors’s love for food.
