Katrina Kaif has opened up about facing weight-gain trolls after giving birth, making it clear that she does not want to let online criticism affect her happiness.

She said people are well aware of the physical changes a woman’s body undergoes after childbirth. If someone still chooses to judge a woman’s body harshly, she believes it is their personal choice rather than a lack of information.

Katrina added that she wants to focus on this beautiful phase of her life and what lies ahead. She also observed that society constantly tries to influence people through changing opinions.

Her response has sparked conversations about body-shaming and the pressure on female celebrities to maintain certain appearances even after motherhood.

Vishwak Sen is coming back as a director with #Cult, a bloody, violent film being called India’s first slasher. The A-rated movie’s release trailer dropped just hours before its theatrical release. The trailer is full of stabs, cuts and chilling scenes, giving an idea of how brutal the content is going to be.

While the first trailer focused on the film’s premise and introduced the slasher elements at a party, the release trailer mainly focuses on Vishwak Sen’s character, DSP Sankalp Nayak. He refuses to tolerate locals in Goa troubling non-locals, especially Telugu people, and moves to Goa to protect them. The final portions of the trailer show his killing spree at the party.

The release trailer is packed with action and slasher elements. Vishwak Sen’s character looks ruthless, and his aggression suits the role. Interestingly, the slasher scenes have a stylised, almost cartoon-like look, so the violence doesn’t feel too disturbing. Murali Sharma plays a politician, while Srikanth Iyengar appears as a senior police official. Gayatri Bharadwaj and Tarak Ponnapa are also part of the cast.

Sandeep Kakarala is producing the movie under the Tarak Cinemas banner. Ravi Basrur is composing the music, and Tharun Bhascker has written the dialogues.

Namit Malhotra’s Ramayana is facing criticism over its song Mangal Rang, composed by AR Rahman. Some people on social media have objected to the song’s qawwali touch, questioning its suitability for a film based on the Hindu epic.

Amid this controversy, lyricist Manoj Muntashir shared an old song from Adipurush on social media. This led to criticism, with some accusing him of trying to gain attention. A TV news channel also questioned whether Ramayana was following the same approach as Adipurush.

Muntashir responded strongly to the criticism. Defending the Adipurush songs, he said, “Go to Shri Ayodhya sometime, and you’ll hear nothing but Adipurush songs playing in every alley.”

He also said, “I didn’t write nursery rhymes for Ram, nor qawwalis.” Referring to the criticism he faced after Adipurush, Muntashir said he had apologised to Ram devotees many times for his mistakes and believed he had been forgiven. However, he made it clear that he did not want his songs to be questioned again.

He also criticised the news channel for comparing the two films and ended his response with a sarcastic remark: “My brother, I wish my stunt had been repeated in the songs of Ramayana.”

Meanwhile, AR Rahman has also responded to the discussion around Mangal Rang. He said he had no energy left to look at feedback after putting so much work into the project.

The controversy has brought Adipurush back into the conversation, even though Muntashir was not involved in Ramayana. The debate now centres on the music and how songs in films based on the Ramayana should be presented.
