Have you heard? New house khaas

Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt

It appears Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt's house will soon be ready. We hear that work on the interiors for the new Kapoor home has begun. Neetu Kapoor, along with Ranbir, Alia and their daughter Raha, are likely to move into their new abode latest by January 2024. Apparently, Neetu and Alia, who are closely overseeing the interiors, have been frequently visiting to inspect the progress. It is being said that a new boundary wall will soon be built to ensure privacy for the family, more so after Alia brought up the issue of the paparazzi invading her personal space, some months ago. KrishnaRaj bungalow was originally acquired by Rishi and Neetu Kapoor in 1980, and named after the late actor's parents, Raj and Krishna Kapoor. The Pali Hill landmark was demolished a few years ago to make way for a 15-storeyed building. The new Kapoor residence will also have a swimming pool, a floor each for offices of Ranbir, Alia, Neetu as well as for Riddhima Sahni for as and when she comes visiting her family.

The right fight

It looks like producer Firoz Nadiadwala's Hera Pheri 3 has hit another hurdle before it can go on floors. A couple of weeks ago, T-Series issued a public notice claiming to be the "sole and exclusive right holder of all copyright of all music and audio-visual song rights" of the franchise in all mediums. Now, Eros International has stated that it holds the Intellectual Property Rights as well as the rights to the title, digital rights and music rights on a ‘sole and exclusive basis'. In a public notice issued over the weekend, Eros further stated that Firoz's Base Industries Group owes them R60.07 crore inclusive of interest, as on April 17, 2023. The notice also states that Base Industries Group had agreed that until it doesn't make this payment, Eros International will possess the sole rights to Hera Pheri 3. It claimed that Firoz had made it clear that he would not create third-party rights or try to release Hera Pheri 3 in any part of the world without their consent.
