Newlyweds Ira Khan and Nupur Shikhare get matching tattoos on their honeymoon

Ira Khan and Nupur Shikhare officially got married in Mumbai earlier this month, and then headed to Udaipur, Rajasthan for their lavish wedding celebrations.

Following the festivities, the couple jetted off to Bali for their honeymoon. Taking to Instagram, the newly married pair posted photos of their matching turtle tattoos.

Sharing the pictures on Instagram stories, Ira wrote, “That’s just mad. I’m going to be staring at it all day long.”

While, Nupur also shared a story which read, “Taking some island back.”

Nupur Shikhare posted a video from his scuba diving adventure at the Gili Islands. During the dive, he encountered a turtle that likely served as the muse for his tattoo. In his caption, he wrote, “Had the most beautiful time diving here at Gili-T.” Ira commented on the post, “Haan. Okay. Now let’s look at what you posted.” She added in another comment, “I love you.” She also wrote “turtle,” adding a couple of emojis.

Ira is the youngest of Aamir Khan’s two children with his ex-wife Reena Dutta. In September 2022, Nupur Shikhare and Ira Khan got engaged. Nupur Shikhare popped the question to Ira during his participation in Ironman Italy.

AR Rahman uses AI to recreate vocals of late singers in Lal Salaam: âœWe took permissionâ

AR Rahman used AI to recreate the vocals of late singers, Bamba Bakya and Shahul Hameed for a song in Lal Salaam. The film directed by Aishwarya Rajinikanth features Vishnu Vishal and Rajinikanth in a special appearance.

AR Rahman used the voices of late singers for a song titled Thimiri Yezhuda in Lal Salaam. Following mixed reactions, the music maestro issued a clarification. He took to his X account and wrote, “We took permission from their families and sent deserving remuneration for using their voice algorithms ..technology is not a threat and a nuisance if we use it right…#respect #nostalgia.”

The late singer Bamba Bakya, who was a frequent collaborator with AR Rahman passed away in 2022 after a cardiac arrest. Singer Shahul Hameed passed away in a car crash in 1997.

AR Rahman’s decision to use AI to recreate their voices has left the internet divided. While some saw it as a homage to the singers, others are calling it a disrespectful move that could also limit opportunities for talent in the music industry. 

Lal Salaam is set to hit theatres on February 9, 2024.

Amid Seat-Sharing Talks With Congress, Akhilesh Yadav Names 16 Candidates

Amid Seat-Sharing Talks With Congress, Akhilesh Yadav Names 16 Candidates

The Opposition INDIA bloc received another blow today — though not an unexpected one –– as the Samajwadi Party released a list of 16 candidates for the Lok Sabha elections in Uttar Pradesh amid seat-sharing talks with the Congress. SP chief Akhilesh Yadav made it clear that his party will do what it thinks is best and no clearance from the Congress is needed.
 
The Congress has been rebuffed by Mamata Banerjee in Bengal and AAP’s Bhagwant Mann in Punjab in terms of seat sharing. The whole Opposition has been jilted by NItish Kumar, who defected and took oath as the Bihar Chief Minister for the ninth time on Sunday, to head an alliance government with the BJP.

That the Samajwadi Party could be “difficult” became clear last year after the Congress’s local leaders in Madhya Pradesh refused to honour the central leadership’s agreement with Akhilesh Yadav for six seats.

State party chief Kamal Nath’s “Don’t know any Akhilesh-Vakilesh” comment had made it to headlines, sparking deep anger in the Samajwadi camp.

Mr Yadav issued a list of 16 candidates, sending a message to the Congress that if they want alliance in UP, they have to agree on what the Samajwadi Party offers. It is a clear indication that in UP, the Samajwadi Party will take decisions in the alliance in its own way.

In 80-seat Uttar Pradesh, Mr Yadav has offered the Congress 11 seats. In 2019, in alliance with Mayawati’s Bahujan Samaj Party, the Samajwadi Party had not contested from Amethi and Rae Bareli as a gesture of courtesy.

Among the candidates named today is Dimple Yadav, the wife of the SP chief, who will be contesting from family bastion Mainpuri.

Mamata Banerjee has refused to share no more than two seats in Bengal, and in view of the Congress’s ambition for more, asked the party to introspect on its results. A similar point was made earlier by Akhilesh Yadav.

In 2019, the Congress had won 44 seats — very few of them in in the northeast or the Hindi belt. In Uttar Pradesh, it won only one seat, Raebareli, as Rahul Gandhi lost to Smriti Irani in Amethi

Mamata Banerjee has remarked that giving the Congress more than two seats is equivalent to giving them away to the BJP — a party she has been fighting for the last five years. In Bengal, the BJP has slid into the second spot, pushing out the Left Front.
