A video featuring Canadian rapper Drake and Lil Wayne performing on late Indian singer Lata Mangeshkar’s iconic number, Didi tera devar deewana, at a concert, has gone viral.

History in the making for the desi community.” The clip features Drake mixing his songs with that of Mangeshkar.

Dippy as Ranbir’s mom?

Really, how did this happen? Glimpses of Deepika Padukone as Ranbir Kapoor’s mother in Brahmastra: Part One — Shiva, have been doing the rounds. Fans who caught the film on the web platform days after its release have shared pictures, which, they claim, are stills from the OTT version of the film. While Padukone’s face as the mother of Shiva (played by Kapoor) is clearly visible in the images, no official comment on the casting has been made. In fact, according to reports, director Ayan Mukerji appears to have dismissed them. However, in the wake of the developments, fans are certain that Padukone will make a return in the second version. One viewer shared, “I watched Brahmastra for the second time. I hadn’t noticed Deepika before. But this time, it was so evident that she is there in the film!”
