Entertainment The pop artist talks about turning actor, working with teams of composers and songwriters, and his debut EP Maahi talks about his debut EP ‘Talab.’ Photo: Courtesy of the artist Behind every adored pop artist is a team working behind the scenes, and Maahi is more than happy to give them their due. He says over a Zoom call, “I’m a firm believer in the philosophy of, ‘Do what you’re good at, and, leave a lot of it to the people who are better at that [other aspects].’” For his debut EP Talab, the pop singer has worked with composers and lyricists like Bharath, Rohh, Saaheal, Samad Khan, and Akash Kaushal across four tracks. Leaning into the rising micro-drama trend, major label Saregama worked with content company FilterCopy to tailor a series centred around the EP’s themes. With each of the four tracks dropping after a dedicated micro-drama episode that teases it through a college love story, Talab marks a few new moves for Maahi. “I’ve usually operated in a very lovey-dovey space. Moving to a little bit of a darker space here was fun,” he says, referring to his melancholy title track, which comes with a tempestuous music video. A pivot from the romantic, affable pop of his previous single “Jaan Se Zyada” that came out earlier this year, Talab EP also brings in more buoyant electronic music-inspired, dancefloor-friendly grooves with songs like “Dildaari,” building mystique on “Vaari Vaari” and offering roomy pop rock on “Raahein.” With work beginning around the end of April this year on Talab, Maahi says it was imperative that they not only captured his current state of mind, but also put it out in a timely manner, before he was “emotionally somewhere else.” He says, “When you’re in a certain phase at some point in your life, you tend to make music as per that. The longer it doesn’t come out, you tend to enter different stages in your life.”   In this stage of life, Maahi has also taken acting workshops for past music videos and the micro-drama series. He admits he was “apprehensive and confused” about the using a micro-drama series to promote his latest set of songs, but says it was “incredible” to see the execution and outcome. “I was really happy to get into it just purely because it’s something that I haven’t seen a lot of before,” he says. He notes how media is changing so rapidly that it’s hard to keep a track of and then becomes a bit self-aware. “I sound so sold at the moment,” the 20-year-old laughs. Now fully buying into how micro-dramas could be a “fresh way to market a song,” Maahi points out that the narrative wasn’t just to support the music of Talab, but to incorporate it in a deeper way. “If you hear the music in the episodes, they’re all stems from the song, even the rhythm or the groove that’s playing in the back,” he says. While four episodes were planned originally to build up to the EP release, demand (and the narrative arc that goes from an awkward meeting to a blossoming romance) has driven Maahi, Saregama, and FilterCopy to drop a fifth episode on Oct. 17. “We just felt it wouldn’t be fair to be like, ‘Promotion ho gaya series ka. Just because of the amount of love that we’ve we’ve gotten on it, we felt like the audience deserved at least a proper conclusion to it,” he says. Then, there’s another visual dimension to the project with the “Talab” music video, made by Arsalaan Abbas and Nathan Solomon from the production house Birds and Bees. Abbas and Solomon — who are also part of the pop group Citimall — are Maahi’s childhood friends. He calls making the “Talab” music video a “full circle moment.” He adds, “These are people I’ve been hanging out with since I was, like, 10. So for them to execute such an incredible video is crazy.” Collaboration and multi-artist projects are still very much Maahi’s approach to making music. There’s work ongoing with the songwriting/production duo Never Sober, comprising Riz and Soham (Maahi’s brother). “I think the name of the game is consistency and consistent releases. That’s something I’m aiming for over the next few years.” The micro-drama stint means he might do a few acting courses as well. “I got my toes wet in this, so maybe I’ll explore a little bit more of that. But nothing comes before the music, so just tons more of that,” he adds. Read More

Entertainment Ali Fazal shares his fitness tips for a lasting and healthy lifestyle. His mantra is sleep and relaxation before exercise or rigid diets. Although Ali Fazal is well-known for his roles in Fukrey, Mirzapur, Metro In Dino, and more. He talked about his fitness preference; he says that he prefers sustainable and easy-to-follow exercise regimens. The actor talked about his approach to health and fitness in an interview with Instant Bollywood, stating that he stays in shape through more than simply rigorous exercise or rigid diets. Ali claims that the true key to feeling good and keeping in shape is something that most people don’t consider: making rest and recuperation, particularly sleep, a priority. Entertainment Ali Fazal talks about supplements Ali shared his preference in fitness supplements; he said that he liked to keep things natural. “Creatine is a very good, safe supplement. It’s natural, and you can take it. It’s great for muscle building,” he said, and also added that supplements can help, but they’re not the foundation of a healthy body. Entertainment What is Ali Fazal’s take on fitness? For Ali, the real secret lies in proper rest and recovery. He said that the most important thing is sleep for recovery because all the recovery happens during sleep. He adds that the second most important thing is working out and keeping a good, balanced diet. Other things depend on the body, because every body is different. Entertainment ‘One go-to diet doesn’t work for everyone’ He also stresses that following a one-size-fits-all approach to dieting is wrong. He said, “One go-to diet doesn’t work for everyone. That’s actually wrong. Many times, I see dietitians giving random diets to people, telling them to fast for certain hours or follow strict plans, but that’s not how it works. Everybody responds differently, and it’s important to understand what works best for you.” Don’t Miss Out on the Latest Updates. Subscribe to Our Newsletter Today! Read More

Entertainment Salman’s family were seated in the first row. Alizeh Agnihotri, his niece, cheered with joy as Orry, whose real name is Orhan Awatramani, recorded the event on his phone. As Salman descended the ramp, Joyce Arora, Malaika Arora’s mother, was also seen grinning and cheering. Salman Khan celebrated 35 years in the industry by walking the ramp for designer Vikram Phadnis’s spectacular fashion show, a rare runway appearance. At the event, which had as its theme Vintage India, more than 100 models displayed archival-inspired designs that combined traditional craftsmanship with modern sensibilities, highlighting traditional Indian aesthetics. Entertainment What did Salman wear for the fashion event? The star’s arrival attracted notice right away. Salman radiated subtle elegance while wearing a black kurta-pyjama covered with a sherwani-style jacket that was exquisitely embroidered.

Entertainment Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar has approached the Bombay High Court seeking protection of his personality rights, becoming the latest A-list actor to take legal recourse amid growing concerns over the unauthorised use of celebrity identities through artificial intelligence and deepfake technology. The matter will be heard by the court on Wednesday. Akshay Kumar moves Bombay High Court to protect his personality rights amid AI deepfake threat According to reports, the actor has filed a suit to safeguard his name, image, voice, likeness and overall persona from misuse by unknown individuals and digital entities. The move comes shortly after fellow actor Hrithik Roshan filed a similar plea before the Delhi High Court to protect his personal and digital identity from unauthorised commercial use. The issue of AI-generated deepfakes and digitally manipulated content has become a serious concern in the entertainment industry, with several high-profile figures recently turning to the courts for relief. Earlier this month, Justice Arif Doctor of the Bombay High Court granted interim protection of personality rights to legendary playback singer Asha Bhosle and actor Suniel Shetty, acknowledging the increasing misuse of celebrity images and videos online. With Akshay Kumar now joining this growing list, the issue has clearly taken centre stage in Bollywood’s ongoing battle against digital impersonation and content manipulation. Known for his strong public image and disciplined persona, Akshay has built one of the most respected brands in Indian cinema — spanning acting, production, and philanthropy. His decision to seek judicial protection underscores the mounting challenges faced by celebrities in maintaining control over their identity in an era where AI can easily replicate voices and faces for profit or parody. On the work front, Akshay Kumar continues to remain one of Bollywood’s most bankable stars, with multiple projects lined up for release. His recent films have spanned genres — from action and comedy to social drama — reaffirming his place as one of the industry’s most versatile performers. As India awaits a comprehensive legal framework to regulate the commercial use of AI-generated likenesses, such court interventions are expected to set important precedents for safeguarding celebrity rights in the digital age.

Entertainment Hrithik Roshan has moved the Delhi High Court by filing a petition seeking safeguards for his name, image, likeness and other aspects of his persona against unauthorised commercial use and misuse. This comes days after veteran playback singer Kumar Sanu sought legal protection for his personality rights, and the matter is expected to be heard on Wednesday, according to a report by Bar and Bench. Hrithik Roshan moves Delhi High Court to protect his personality rights amid rising AI misuse With the increasing use of generative AI and deepfake technologies, several Indian celebrities have been turning to the courts to protect their digital and personal identities. Hrithik joins a growing list of public figures — including Amitabh Bachchan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Jackie Shroff, Anil Kapoor, Abhishek Bachchan, Kumar Sanu, and even the late Ratan Tata — who have sought injunctions to prevent unauthorised exploitation of their name or likeness, often through AI-generated content. Personality rights, also known as publicity rights, give individuals legal control over how their name, image, voice, and other identifiable traits are used commercially. While India does not yet have a dedicated law governing these rights, courts have upheld them under the right to privacy guaranteed by Article 21 of the Constitution and through existing principles of common law. Hrithik Roshan, who was last seen in War 2 which released on August 14, has been in the spotlight not only for his films but also for his new venture as a producer. The actor recently kicked off his debut production Storm in collaboration with Amazon Prime Video under his banner HRX Films. Known for his carefully curated projects and strong public image, Hrithik’s move to secure his personality rights reflects a growing concern among stars about their identity being misused in the age of AI-generated videos, fake endorsements and manipulated content. As courts continue to issue directions to online platforms for removing infringing material, legal experts believe more celebrities will take similar steps until India establishes a dedicated framework to regulate the commercial use of personal likenesses in the digital era.
