Veteran actor Amitabh Bachchan and his son Abhishek Bachchan tested positive for coronavirus earlier on Saturday and are admitted to hospital, both of them revealed in tweets on Saturday night. An hour after Mr Bachchan’s tweet revealing his coronavirus diagnosis, Abhishek tweeted: “Earlier today, both my father and I tested positive for COVID-19. Both of us having mild symptoms have been admitted to hospital. We have informed all the required authorities and our family and staff are all being tested. I request all to stay calm and not panic.

Actress Nithya Menen and Dulquer Salmaan have acted in three films together and they are more than just good friends. Nithya often says that her friendship with Dulquer is what helps them create magic on screen and they themselves are always amazed to see their scenes together in Ok Kadhal Kanmani.

During the promotions of Breathe 2: Into the Shadows, Nithya revealed that Dulquer is a complete family man and that he had tried to convince Nithya Menen to get married. Also, it seems he told her how great marriage is.

Nithya always says that she doesn’t want to get married. But because of Dulquer, it looks like her ideas might about marriage have changed. She further added Mani Ratnam is the closest to her and he helped her to grow as an actress and let her be herself.

Nithya was last seen in Tamil in Mysskin’s directorial, Pyscho, starring Udhyanidhi Stalin, in which she played the role of a cop. Though Nithya was the first choice to play late actress Savithri in the biopic Mahanati, she later opted out and she had said that though she tried, the film didn’t work for her.Her upcoming series, which marks her digital debut will stream from July 10 of Prime Video.

The title track of Dil Bechara perfectly describes the film’s title, courtesy Sushant Singh Rajput’s brilliant one-shot performance. Sushant’s Dil Bechara co-star Sanjana Sanghi dropped the Dil Bechara title track on Friday, making us fall in love with Sushant all over again. Dil Bechara stars Sanjana as Kizie Basu and Sushant as Manny, whose magical love story has a tragic end – Kizie has cancer.

The trailer reveals that Manny, with his adorable antics, lights up grumpy Kizie’s life, and the title track is a glimpse of Manny’s infectious energy. While sharing the Dil Bechara title track, Sanjana tweeted: “Manny knocked his way into Kizie’s life with all his heart and lively spirit… Listen, love, let the magic do its trick.”

The song begins with the spotlight on Manny at what appears to be a college performance. Manny, who appears to have been friend-zoned, dances to the tunes of his heart and sings out his emotions adorably. Kizie has just a tiny role to play during Manny’s performance as he randomly grooves with her in the audience. The song ends with Sushant’s million dollar smile, which will steal your hearts.

In an Instagram post, Farah Khan, who choreographed Sushant in the Dil Bechara song, revealed that the actor had filmed it in one shot: “This song is particularly close to me because it was the first time I was choreographing Sushant… we were friends for a long time but never worked together… I had also promised Mukesh Chhabra that when he makes his directorial debut I would do a song for him… I wanted the song to be done as a one shot song because I knew Sushant would be able to do it perfectly.”
