Scroll through some of the most viral moments of the year:

Khushi Kapoor, who marked her Bollywood debut with Zoya Akhtar’s The Archies, made quite an impression at the film’s grand premiere. She caught everyone’s attention by donning one of her late mother Sridevi’s gowns for the significant occasion.

In an interview with a leading portal, the budding star revealed that her choice of outfit for the premiere wasn’t a meticulously planned decision. While discussing options with her stylist beforehand, who suggested modern gowns among other choices, Khushi, passionate about fashion and experimentation, opted not to make a bold statement that day. Nervous about the enormity of the occasion, she had a last-minute idea to infuse something personal into her ensemble. Rummaging through a collection of old clothes, she picked an item that held sentimental value.

When asked about her decision to pursue a career in the film industry, Khushi shared that it was a childhood aspiration. Growing up on film sets, it became her playground, and she couldn’t envision doing anything else. The allure of the camera, lights, and the art of storytelling enticed her from a young age.

Reflecting on her childhood spent on her parents’ film sets, Khushi recalled accompanying her mother during a phase when Sridevi had stepped back from acting. She faintly remembered being on the sets of the sitcom Malini Iyer. Additionally, she reminisced about being on her father Boney Kapoor’s movie sets, specifically mentioning the sets of Wanted. One of her most cherished memories was from English Vinglish, her mother’s comeback film, where she spent time on set, especially during the New York scenes. This film holds a special place as one of her favourites.

Meanwhile, The Archies also marked the debut of Suhana Khan, daughter of Shah Rukh Khan, and Agastya Nanda, grandson of Amitabh Bachchan.

A tiger that had wandered into an Uttar Pradesh village was tranquilised by forest officials this morning after locals were seen surrounding the majestic animal that showed no signs of aggression.

A dramatic capturing exercise ensued with officials even trying to grab the tiger by its tail as it struggled against the tranquilising effect. Once sedated, the tiger was caged and taken away by the forest department team.

The villagers had kept awake all night to keep a watch on the tiger that was seen resting on the wall of a house. It seemed frightened by a massive crowd that had gathered to get a glimpse of the majestic animal.

The tiger entered the Atkona village in Kalinagar from the tiger reserve in Pilibhit district last night. The villagers were alerted by stray dogs that kept barking at the tiger resting on the wall of a house.

Videos this morning showed a huge crowd gathered on rooftops and behind fencing trying to film the tiger sleeping on the wall. The area around the animal was barricaded using nets so no one could advance any further.

The tiger had been sleeping on the wall since night and didn’t budge from the spot even after it woke up. Light was flashed at it in the dark but that didn’t prompt it to move either, showed visuals from last night.

There has been no reports of the animal attacking any human. But the frightened villagers are angry with the forest department and alleging that it is due to their negligence that the tiger could get into the village.

Pilibhit is home to a tiger reserve and five people have died in four months in tiger attacks in the district. At least four dozen tiger attack incidents have been reported since the creation of the tiger reserve in 2015.
