Have you heard? Jacqueline Fernandez is drawing support and flak

Jacqueline Fernandez

Over the weekend, as another intimate picture of Jacqueline Fernandez and Sukesh Chandrasekhar went viral, the actor broke her silence. In a social media post, she asked fans and the media to refrain from sharing her photographs with the alleged conman. “I request you to not circulate images of a nature that intrude my privacy and personal space. You would not do this to your loved ones. I am sure you would not do this to me either. Hoping that justice and good sense prevails,” she posted. Fernandez added that she is going through “a rough patch”. Fans lent support by sharing, “Stay strong, Jacqueline”, “Don’t worry everything will be alright soon”, and “love you”, messages. A section of netizens slammed the actor and called her “a gold-digger who dated someone for money and expensive gifts” and asked her to stop “playing the victim card”.  Others wondered why she was reacting “so late” when several of her loved-up snapshots have been doing the rounds for months. The Enforcement Directorate has questioned her several times in Chandrasekhar’s Rs 200 crore money laundering case.


Foo’s big day



On Sunday, Farhan Akhtar turned 48. The filmmaker-actor received a special birthday wish from ladylove Shibani Dandekar. She posted that it will be Foo’s (that’s what she calls him) “best year yet” while expressing “forever love”. There’s chatter that the two are planning to tie the knot in the coming months. Was Dandekar hinting about their wedding in the best year yet post?

Only love

On Sunday, Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal celebrated one month of their wedding with a new set of mushy photographs. Kat posted, “Happy one month, my heart.” Kaushal’s caption read, “Forever to go.” On Friday, Kat winged her way to Indore to be with hubby dearest who is shooting there. While congratulating the two, Kareena Kapoor Khan wrote, “Bless you both.” Kat’s buddy Mini Mathur posted, “Already! Happy one-month lovebirds. Love you both,” she wrote. Kaif and Kaushal tied the knot on December 9 at a destination wedding in Rajasthan. 

Will Sonu go politicking?

Though Sonu Sood has maintained that he will keep away from politics, it remains to be seen if he will campaign for sister Malvika. She is contesting the Punjab assembly elections next month. Speculation is rife that she will be fighting on a Congress ticket.

There had been talk earlier that she was seeking an AAP nomination. Sood has already stepped down as the state icon of Punjab. He bagged the honour for his humanitarian work during the lockdown in 2020.

Time to tease the tastebuds

Parineeti Chopra turned food taster at brother Sahaj’s new restaurant in Faridabad. “We grew up eating the best Punjabi food and were never satisfied at any restaurant. The dal wasn’t makhni enough, the butter chicken too sweet, and the food extremely oily. Sahaj decided it was time to create that taste we were constantly looking for — just yummy food,” wrote Pari, who spent three days eating everything on the menu. Their cousin Priyanka Chopra Jonas runs an Indian food restaurant in New York — it’s all in the family.

See, engage and act

With his latest release, Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui, dropping digitally barely a month after its theatrical release, Ayushmann Khurrana is glad to note that “it became the number one streamed content within 24 hours.” Abhishek Kapoor’s film talks about the need for gender inclusivity. “It was important people saw and engaged with the film,” says the actor.

The virus continues to strike

Bollywood continues to be infected by the Coronavirus. Arijit Singh informed in a Facebook post that he tested positive. The singer added that wife Koel had also contracted the disease. “We have quarantined ourselves,” posted the crooner. Four More Shots Please! actor Maanvi Gagroo shared a picture of a bowl of chicken soup sent by writer buddy Abbas Dalal, which was helping her “fight COVID”. Nafisa Ali Sodhi (inset) is in a Goa hospital after testing positive. She has developed a high fever and severe throat congestion.

“I hope to be allowed home in a few days for self- isolation,” informed the veteran actor who features in the Amitabh Bachchan-starrer Uunchai. Esha Gupta shared a health update on social media. “Despite the utmost precautions, I tested positive for COVID-19. I have been following the protocols and have isolated myself and currently under home quarantine.” The actor hoped “to come back stronger and better out of this.” Television star Kamya Punjabi has also been struck by the virus. The Shakti actor posted she survived the first two waves but was caught by the third. “So here I am with high fever, a spinning head and body ache. This too shall pass. Mask up people,” added Punjabi.
