Ekta Kapoor controversy
A section of the Indian audience seems displeased at the content of the Indian web series. After Anushka Sharma's Pataal Lok faced a lot of ire, Ekta Kapoor's XXX: Uncensored 2 is also facing legal issues by the Martyr's Association. The issue seems to be that in the series a woman is shown cheating her husband and engaging in physical intimacy with another who wears an army uniform. Even Bigg Boss 13 fame, Hindustani Bhau has lodged a complaint with the Mumbai police that Alt Balaji is disrespecting the army.

Gulabo Sitabo
Amitabh Bachchan has been revealing interesting tidbits about his upcoming film, Gulabo Sitabo which will have an OTT release. In his official blog, Bachchan revealed that the director, Shoojit Sircar is a very creative person. Talking about the buttons on the back of the kurta, he revealed that they were done intentionally so that it was easier for him to get in and out of costume without having trouble with the prosthetic makeup and hair for the movie. He also revealed that since they were shooting in UP during the summer season, the actor frequently required a change of clothing.
Nayanthara and Vignesh Shivan's wedding
