The ‘Farzi’ reunion
Rashmika Mandanna and Kriti Sanon
Actors Shahid Kapoor and Vijay Sethupathi are gearing up to reunite for the second season of their hit OTT series Farzi. According to sources, the show — created by Raj and DK — is currently in the writing stage and is set to begin filming in January 2026. Shahid has reportedly blocked six months for the shoot and is said to be pocketing his highest-ever fee — around Rs 40 crore — for the season, proving just how successful the first instalment was. Insiders hint the new season will be “bigger and more ambitious” than the previous one. Meanwhile, Shahid is putting the finishing touches on Cocktail 2 , which is currently being shot in Italy and aiming for a summer 2026 release. It also stars Kriti Sanon and Rashmika Mandanna.
Colour me tan!
Ananya Panday
For over two months, Ananya Panday found herself the butt of online jokes every time she stepped out, apparently for slathering on too much bronzer. Her tanned look had many questioning her make-up skills, while others suggested she was trying too hard for a beach vibe. Finally, Ananya broke her silence. Fashion content creator Diet Sabya posted a video on Instagram showing her holding a white cloth, as she says, “This is the test of the bronzer which you all are saying I have put on.” Moments later, she wipes her arm with the cloth. Nothing comes off. She looks into the camera and says, “Nothing. It’s called going on a good holiday and getting a tan.” Mic drop!
