Baby in 2019, Samantha and Nandini Reddy have joined hands once again for this project. At the outset, we meet Dr Anirudh (Diganth) and his young wife Swarna (Samantha), who are trying to endear themselves to Anirudh's conservative family post their marriage.  Swarna, who's not accepted by Ani's family - especially his politician father - desperately tries to fulfil the family's expectations by any means.  She tries to mould herself along the lines of the traditional younger daughter-in-law Anasuya, be it religious rituals or cooking.  However, Anasuya is not convinced that the elder daughter-in-law is all t...

India's quick-service restaurant (QSR) industry is showing early signs of demand recovery, but Macquarie highlights rising costs and intensifying competition from food-delivery aggregators as reasons for its cautiousness. According to Macquarie, post-fourth-quarter trends indicate a gradual improvement in dine-in demand across restaurant chains. Within the sector, Macquarie remains most constructive on franchise operators Devyani International, Sapphire Foods and Westlife Foodworld. However, the recovery remains uneven and is being overshadowed by inflationary pressures and the growing dominance of delivery platforms such as Zomato and Swiggy. The brokerage said same-store sales growth across the listed QSR universe is tracking broadly in line with or slightly ahead of fourth-quarter levels. However, restaurant brands continue to trail delivery aggregators in growth, highlighting a structural shift in consumer behaviour. To counter this trend, restaurant operators have increa...

Curacao, playing their first FIFA World Cup match and up against giants Germany, conjured a courageous act that will be spoken about in the days to come. By the sixth minute, Curacao were down 0-1, with Felix Nmecha slotting one home in style. What followed was a period of complete domination by the four-time winner. Curacao defended with their lives as Germany raided the Curacao box in hordes. The reply came in the 21st minute as a counter-attack caught Germany's defence napping, and one of the youngest players of the squad - Livano Comenencia, all of 22 - forever entered the sporting folklore of the Dutch Caribbean island. Comenencia is now the first goal-scorer in a FIFA World Cup for Curacao. Comenencia was born in the Netherlands and was a youth international for the Netherlands. He even played for Netherlands U18s. In October 2024, he first played for Curacao's senior team. He currently plays for Swiss Super League club Zurich in Switzerland. Earlier, he has played ...

This week began with an end of an era — Tim Cook's, who signed off from his final Worldwide Developers Conference on Monday. Cook had given his first keynote way back in October 2011, after taking Apple's reins from the legendary Steve Jobs. With John Ternus stepping in his shoes soon, the event saw Cook wrapping up with Apple's vision of AI in the future. Siri AI was introduced and Apple Intelligence was expanded, even as AI agents entered the Passwords app. The coming weeks and months should be an exciting time for Apple fans with iOS 27 in beta, before its rollout in September — when Cook rolls the dice on Ternus and bids farewell as CEO. Leaks around the iPhone 18 Pro range — which is also set to be unveiled in September — continued to surface this week as well. While one claimed the upcoming Pro range may start $100 upwards from the last generation, another indicated that might not be the case, and Apple may absorb rising productions costs but charge for advanced AI ...

Lump sum and Systematic Investment Plan (SIP) are two popular ways of investing in mutual funds. While lump sum involves investing a large amount at once, SIP allows investors to put in smaller amounts at regular intervals.  In a lump sum investment, the money is fully invested immediately. This allows it to potentially grow faster if markets perform well. However, it also carries higher short-term risk. If the portfolio is exposed to market fluctuations from the start, returns can be disappointing. On the other hand, SIP involves investing smaller amounts regularly, such as monthly or weekly. This approach reduces risk by spreading investments over time. This can also help average out market ups and downs.  ALSO READ:  Equity Fund Inflows Slump 40% To Rs 22,908 Crore In May, Lowest In 2026 Both methods have their own benefits, risks and utilities.

The BSE Sensex climbed 2.30% to 75,527.95, gaining 1,695.40 points. Both indices turned positive for the week, with Nifty and Sensex ending higher after earlier declines between Monday and Thursday.

A viral social media post by the Mumbai Police addressing consent via the ongoing Pranit More biryani controversy has drawn sharp political backlash. Shiv Sena (UBT) lawmaker Priyanka Chaturvedi slammed the law enforcement department's official social media handle, calling its attempt to address the matter "disgraceful." The Mumbai Police joined the conversation on X, using the trend to emphasise that consent cannot be bought. The police warned, “Rs 370 gets you one plate of biryani. Our lock-up serves free meals with a longer stay.” The post ended with the hashtag “#BiryaniIsNotConsent”. ????It's your choice ????निवड तुमची आहे! #BiryaniIsNotConsent pic.twitter.com/VtxXw7ehQt — मुंबई पोलीस Mumbai Police (@MumbaiPolice) June 10, 2026 Responding to an official campaign touting the city's commitment to "Safeguarding Women", Chaturvedi criticised the force, replying, "Do better, Mumbai Police, this is so disgraceful."

The Indian box office is headed for one of its most crowded weekends of the year. On June 12, more than 20 films will release across Hindi, Hollywood, and regional markets, setting the stage for a major battle for screens and audience attention. At a time when exhibitors are already juggling multiple titles, the unusually packed release calendar is expected to intensify competition among filmmakers. While trade experts warn of screen shortages and fragmented audiences, producers believe content remains the ultimate deciding factor. Trade analyst Taran Adarsh feels the industry would benefit from better spacing between releases. "There are multiple films. In fact, a barrage of films releasing on June 12. And I don't really think it's a healthy trend because when you have so many films coming on the same Friday, there's a shortage of screens. There's a shortage of shows and, obviously, the audience gets divided," he told NDTV. Leading the Hindi slate are...

Back in 2012, I interviewed the late Parag Parikh when he was about to launch PPFAS Mutual Fund. Besides his contrarian investing style, the one thing that stood out about him was his refreshingly candid take on things. This was when mutual funds   were witnessing outflows for years and assets under management stood at a little over Rs 5 lakh crore - largely debt-oriented. When I asked him how he planned to garner investments at a time when mutual funds weren't in favour, he said: "By being on the side of the investor". He then pointed to a note he had gotten stamped on the physical prospectus of the AMC's inaugural equity fund that said: "Please do not invest in this fund if you can't remain invested for at least five years". I can't draw a straight line from the note to PPFAS' outperformance over the past decade, and the swelling of its assets. But surely, sobering investors' expectations when the temptation is to oversell helps attract...

Michael Jackson was arrested in November 2003 after 13-year-old Gavin Arvizo accused him of sexual abuse. Two days before his arrest, investigators from the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Department searched Neverland Ranch in California for evidence linked to the allegations. Now, a new Netflix docuseries is revisiting the searches conducted at Michael Jackson's Neverland Ranch, detailing evidence investigators recovered during multiple child molestation investigations involving the late pop star.  During the raid, authorities seized several items later introduced during Jackson's 2005 trial, including adult pornographic magazines, videos and a briefcase containing pornography. Law enforcement officials have previously stated that no child pornography was discovered during the searches. Police returned to Neverland in 2004 to collect additional DNA samples ahead of the trial. Jackson was ultimately found not guilty on all counts. The property had also been searched i...

Amid concerns over disruptions in global energy markets following escalating tensions in West Asia, Petroleum and Natural Gas Minister Hardeep Singh Puri on Monday sought to reassure consumers, asserting that India remains well-positioned in terms of energy security and fuel availability.
