The highly anticipated trailer of CTRL has finally been launched, with Ananya Panday and Vihaan Samat navigating through the perils of social media and AI. In the trailer, Joe and Nella, break up after the former allegedly cheats on the latter. In a fit of rage, Nella installs an AI-powered application to “take control of her life and happiness.”

Take a look at the trailer below:

CTRL seems to be a gripping thriller, as the protagonists navigate through the hellholes of modern social media. Towards the end, Ananya Panday’s Nella is informed that Vihaan Samat, a.k.a. Joe has gone missing. She tries to find him, while communicating with the AI-powered app.

Parineeti Chopra and Raghav Chadha completed one blissful year of marriage, and the couple decided to have a quiet celebration. The Kesari actress took to her official social media handle to share glimpses from their romantic gateway and penned an appreciation post for her husband. In the first photo, Raghav and Parineeti can be seen at a beach, with ‘Happy Anniversary’ written on the sand. In the second photo, the couple has their back turned towards camera and can be seen in a warm embrace.

The actress also shared a video of them walking hand in hand on the beach. Sharing the post, she wrote, “We had a quiet day yesterday, just the two of us..

But we read every wish and message from you all and couldn’t be more grateful.

Ragaii – I dont know what I did in my past life and this one, to deserve you.”

She continued, “I have married the perfect gentleman, my goofy friend, sensitive partner, my mature husband (thank god because.…me!😂) , a straight up honest human being, the best son, brother in law & son in law. Your dedication and commitment to our Country inspires me SO much. I love you too too much.

Why didn’t we meet sooner? Ã°ÂŸÂ¥Â°

Happy anniversary @raghavchadha88. We are ONE Ã°ÂŸÂ™Â‚”. Take a look at her post:

The Bollywood actress and the Aam Aadmi Party leader got married in Udaipur last year in the presence of their family, industry friends and political bigwigs. 

On the work front, Parineeti was last seen in Imtiaz Ali’s Amar Singh Chamkila with Diljit Dosanjh. 

Two days after Badlapur sex assault accused Akshay Shinde was shot dead in custody, the Bombay High Court asked tough questions to police about the circumstances leading to the 24-year-old’s death. The court was hearing a petition by Shinde’s father, who has alleged that his son was killed in a fake encounter and has demanded a probe by a Special Investigation Team.

Akshay Shinde (24) was accused of sexually assaulting two minor girls at a school in Badlapur where he worked as a sweeper. He was being taken from Taloja Jail to Badlapur Monday when he snatched a policeman’s pistol and opened fire. An assistant inspector was injured and Shinde was killed in retaliatory firing, police have said.

Addressing the bench of Justice Revati Mohite Dere and Justice Prithviraj Chavan, petitioner Anna Shinde’s counsel said the accused met his parents a day before the incident and was in no mental state to perform any of the acts alleged by the police.

“In the present case, the police is deciding who is convicted. The rule of law must prevail. This is setting a bad example (and) encouraging police to commit such…,” the counsel said, seeking a court-monitored probe into Shinde’s death.

When the court questioned the cause of death, the state government’s counsel replied, “bullet wound on the left thigh”. The public prosecutor said the pistol allegedly snatched by Shinde could be unlocked in two ways. “One way is pulling the upper portion, the deceased pulled the slider, it popped and he fired,” he said.

The court, however, said this is “hard to believe”. “It requires strength for the slider to pop. (A) layman cannot fire a pistol unless he is trained, (a) revolver is different,” the bench said. “According to you, he fired three bullets. Only one hit the police officer. What about the others?” the court asked.

The court then pointed out that the accused should have been shot below the knee, but the state government responded that the cop who shot him “did not have time to think”. “How could we believe that the police could not overpower the accused?” the court asked.

“Till he fired three shots, where were you? You could have easily overpowered (him). It is not like he was a hefty man. This can’t be termed as an encounter. This is not an encounter,” the court added.

The bench asked if there were CCTV cameras on the route. The state government responded that footage of all CCTV cameras on the route will be checked. “We expect the investigation to be impartial. If we see something, we will be inclined to pass an order,” the court said.

The court questioned why the case papers have not been handed over to the state CID yet. “Time is of the essence in any investigation. Delay will lead to suspicion among the public. What prevented you from handling the papers yesterday?” The court said the call data records of all the five occupants of the police vehicle — four officers and the accused — should be collected.

The custodial death of Akshay Shinde, meanwhile, has set off a hoardings spree in Maharashtra.

Hoardings congratulating Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis have come up in various locations in Mumbai. They use a wordplay — Badla Pura (revenge complete) — and show Mr Fadnavis holding a gun. These hoardings do not carry any organisation’s name.

The BJP has put up posters of its own, claiming that police would only extort money during the Shiv Sena-NCP-Congress regime in Maharashtra, but cops now protect the people. The Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena has issued newspaper ads, describing the Chief Minister as “Dharamvir” and accusing rivals of politicising a sensitive issue like rape. The newspaper ad also has a cop’s cap.

The Opposition has raised questions about the police’s version of the circumstances leading to Shinde’s death.

Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut said the police’s version was suspicious, but there was no need to show sympathy for Shinde. “….This murder or encounter was done to save the main accused. How convincing is it that a school janitor snatches a gun from a policeman and fires a locked weapon? This is the basic question,” he said. The Rajya Sabha MP alleged, “The school is linked to BJP and yesterday’s story (Akshay’s killing) was done to save them.”

NCP (SP) MP Supriya Sule wondered how the accused, who was handcuffed, could snatch a pistol from a policeman in a moving vehicle. “A policeman suffered a bullet injury. Even the police are not safe in Maharashtra. If there is CCTV footage of the incident, it should be made public,” she said, according to a PTI report.
