Pooja Hegde says Jana Nayagan leak is ‘disheartening' for team: ‘Don’t we deserve to celebrate Vijay sir’s last film?'


Actor Vijay’s final unreleased film, Jana Nayagan, has leaked on piracy websites. As HD prints first appeared online, many actors from the Telugu and Tamil film industries condemned the leak. Now, the film’s female lead, Pooja Hegde, has also expressed her hurt and disappointment over the leak, urging audiences to watch the film the right way, in theatres.

Pooja Hegde condemns Jana Nayagan’s leak online

On Saturday, Pooja took to Instagram and shared a post on her Instagram Story, which read, “My lovely audience. A film is the result of countless hours, creative risks, personal sacrifices, and a team that showed up every single day hoping to give you the best experience possible. Seeing our film leaked online is disheartening, not just for me, but for every single person who worked on it.”

She added, “To see it being leaked and shared illegally is tough—not because of numbers, but because it takes away the respect that every artist and technician on the film deserves. Plus, don’t we all deserve to gather together to celebrate and watch Vijay sir’s last film, one last time, on the big screen in the right way? So let’s watch it the right way. Let’s wait. It will be out in due time. Let’s not encourage piracy. That’s how cinema and art will survive. Love, Art. Artists. Technicians.”

Jana Nayagan was scheduled to release in January, but was postponed after the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) did not certify it. The CBFC raised objections to some of the film’s content, after which the makers moved court. The matter is sub judice, and hence, the film’s release remains stalled. Now, amid that delay, the film has been leaked online. The incident has triggered a wave of outrage among the film fraternity. Rajinikanth expressed shock and pain over the leak, requesting the government to take strict action against those responsible, while Kamal Haasan called it an “attack on art”, among others.

About Jana Nayagan

Directed by H. Vinoth and backed by KVN Productions, Jana Nayagan is a political drama that marks Vijay’s final on screen appearance before his full-fledged entry into politics with his party, TVK. The film features an ensemble cast including Pooja Hegde, Bobby Deol, Prakash Raj, Mamitha Baiju, Gautham Vasudev Menon, Priyamani, and Narain in pivotal roles. It marks Vijay’s 69th outing as a lead actor, with music composed by Anirudh Ravichander.

While the makers are yet to announce an official release date, anticipation remains high for the project. Vijay is preparing to step into active politics through TVK, with both he and the party set to contest the upcoming Tamil Nadu Assembly elections. The actor and his party have alleged that the delay in the film’s release has been influenced by his political opponents.

Mexico’s Police Focus on World Cup While Thousands Remain Missing

Mexico’s heavy security investment for the World Cup is drawing criticism from families of the disappeared, who argue the focus on safety for teams and fans ignores their search for missing loved ones.

“We’re in a Black Hawk with Mexican police flying over Guadalajara’s Akron Stadium. As Mexico prepares to host four World Cup matches here in June, it’s pulling out the stops on security, deploying thousands more officers and beefing up surveillance. But here in the state of Jalisco, more than 16,000 people are missing or believed to be murdered by drug cartels, individuals, as well as corrupt police officers. And victims’ families say the show of force for the World Cup does nothing to protect them or help find their loved ones. In February, this region erupted in violence after the military killed a powerful cartel leader. And now the government is trying hard to project a sense of security and order. Jalisco’s secretary of security shows us some of their $55 million worth of new investments. Four of Ana Hatsumi Muñoz’s family members have disappeared or been killed. Her sister Virginia, a police officer, was last seen being taken by armed men in 2021. Ana is part of a collective called Guerreros Buscadores, or “warrior searchers.” Today, they’ve received an anonymous tip that the body of one of her nephews may have been burned and buried in this abandoned lot, not far from the Guadalajara airport. Each of these searchers has lost at least one family member. After two hours of digging, they found no clues. The government says it is targeting criminal groups behind disappearances. It recently freed several people from this kidnapper’s hideout close to the Akron Stadium. Even so, the number of missing people keeps rising. But the job of finding missing people is still largely left to family members. While Mexico has a search commission, collectives often dig on their own, without police protection. Two days after we filmed with them, the collective unearthed a bag of human bones buried two and a half miles from the Guadalajara airport, where World Cup teams and fans will fly in. As with so many others discovered in recent years, it’s unclear who this person was. The Jalisco prosecutor’s office said they are investigating.

Jessica Biel talks about viral parenting trend


Jessica Biel addresses the viral ‘Jessica Tantrum’ trend: Says ‘On behalf of all Jessicas, we are nice people’
Actress Jessica Biel has taken to social media to confront a troubling new trend known as the ‘Jessica Tantrum.’ It seems some parents are yelling ‘Jessica’ at their tantruming toddlers to calm them down. In her heartfelt message, Biel expressed her worry about the fear this instills in young children, suggesting that they appear ‘petrified.

Jessica Biel is currently going viral for a reel trend that has become a craze amongst many people. The parenting trend that spins her name and is titled ‘Jessica Tantrum’, has been going viral online; however, the famed star Biel is not standing with it. Instead, while addressing the trend recently, she even made an official plea to the parents who have been listening to such trends.

Jessica Biel addresses viral trend parenting trend made from her name

On April 10, the star shared a video message about the ongoing viral trend that is made from her name, and talked about how kids look ‘petrified’ in the videos that she has watched. The trend came forward after she joked about it in another post. Though now, she is clarifying that the viral trend is something that she mainly uses on her pets. She added, “Guys, I’m not really sure how I feel about this Jessica trend with moms and toddlers and now dogs apparently it’s working for – which is kind of amazing, I’m gonna try it on my dogs. I feel like half the kids in these videos look petrified.” She further captioned the post by adding, “On behalf of all Jessicas, we are nice people.”She added, “I really love if I can come into your household with my name that I share with so many other incredible Jessicas around the world, I’m sure, and help you with your kids’ tantrum, but I sort of feel like these kids are terrified.” She also shared that part of her feels grateful and wants to say ‘You’re welcome’; however, there is also another part of her that feels that she should not do that.“Please please please don’t make your toddler terrified of people named Jessica. Cause we’re good people. We’re nice people. We wanna help you with the tantrum, but we don’t wanna scare the s–t out of your kid,” she hilariously concluded.

What is the viral ‘Jessica Tantrum’ trend?

The trend that Biel seems to be referring to is a trend where, during a toddler’s meltdown or tantrum, the parents are yelling her name, ‘Jessica’ loudly, in order to confuse and disorient them. In turn, this stops the tantrum or meltdown momentarily. The trend ended up gaining traction after Biel posted some videos to her stories section with the caption “You rang? (crying while laughing emoji).”

'Batter has every right': Ashwin supports Daryl Mitchell after Usman Tariq's 'Pause' drama in PSL
PSL drama over Usman Tariq pause (Screengrab)

Former India all-rounder Ravichandran Ashwin has come out in support of Daryl Mitchell after the New Zealand batter raised concerns over Usman Tariq’s unusual delivery pause during a Pakistan Super League (PSL) 2026 clash in Karachi.The incident occurred during the match between Quetta Gladiators and Rawalpindi, where Mitchell pulled away twice while facing Tariq, clearly uncomfortable with the bowler’s stop-start action. During the ninth over at the National Stadium, Mitchell initially played a paddle sweep but soon appeared unsettled by Tariq’s delayed release. As the over progressed, he stepped away twice mid-delivery, pointing out the pause in the bowler’s action.The repeated interruptions prompted the on-field umpires to intervene and have a brief discussion with the batter before allowing play to continue. Mitchell was later dismissed, caught and bowled by Saud Shakeel, as Rawalpindi suffered a heavy 61-run defeat.Ashwin’s Take: “Batters Have Every Right”Ashwin, who had earlier spoken about such tactics on his YouTube show Ash Ki Baat, reiterated that batters are well within their rights to pull away if they feel the bowler’s action disrupts timing.”Now it’s up to the umpires and match referees to time the pause for his delivery. If the pause isn’t consistent, then the batter has every right to move away. The captains and opposition batters should raise this issue with the umpires and match referees before the game begins. Well done, Mitchell.” Ashwin wrote.Interestingly, Ashwin had earlier suggested this exact approach, encouraging batters to step away, forcing umpires to call a dead ball and thereby neutralising any advantage gained from irregular bowling rhythms. Tariq’s action has been under scrutiny for some time due to its distinctive pause before release, followed by a low follow-through. While he has been reported twice for a suspect action in the past, he has been cleared on both occasions.

HT asks Supernatural star Jensen Ackles if he gets paid for viral hair salon pic; watch hilarious response | Exclusive


Before he was Soldier Boy in The Boys, Jensen Ackles was everybody’s favourite monster hunter, Dean Winchester, in Supernatural. The show ran for 15 seasons and was a rage in India and elsewhere, making Jensen and co-star Jared Padalecki quite popular in the country. During the show’s run, a photoshopped picture of Jensen surfaced, showing him with a semi-bald look. Recently, the picture was seen on the banner of a barbershop in Mumbai. As we met Jensen during the promotions of The Boys season 5, it was only natural that we quiz him on it.

Jensen Ackles reacts to his viral bald picture

The picture shows Jensen semi-bald in the first frame, followed by his natural, lush locks on top of his head in the other frame. A Mumbai hair salon used the picture to advertise hair transplants years ago, and it still does the rounds on the internet every now and then. We showed this to Jensen, who admitted he was familiar with it. Like a good sport, he laughed and said, “Shoutout to that barbershop because this still looks good.” Antony Starr, Jensen’s co-star on The Boys, also present during the interview, could hardly contain his laughter. In between wheezing laughter, he chimed, “I need that, will put it on my wall.”

As we asked Jensen if he was disappointed that he wasn’t being paid for promoting the small barbershop, the 48-year-old replied, “I am not scared I’m not getting paid, but I am scared I keep seeing that picture everywhere. Because it’s been a while.” Jensen called it a ‘heal and reveal’. The picture first surfaced on Twitter in 2011-12 and has been memefied almost every year since.

The Supernatural reunion on The Boys

In Supernatural, Jensen played Dean Winchester, the older of the two monster-hunting brothers who are the show’s protagonists. Jared played Sam, his younger brother, the show’s other star. Like The Boys, Supernatural was also created by Eric Kripke. Jared and Misha Collins, the third lead of Supernatural, appear on The Boys’ final season alongside Jensen in a Supernatural reunion. “We are still very close, all of us. We see each other all the time. We talk to each other all the time. So getting back on a set together was very familiar, and seemed natural, and getting to play in that world was very easy,” Jensen says of the reunion.

Jensen returns as the xenophobic superhero Soldier Boy in The Boys season 5, which premiered on Amazon Prime Video this week. The show will end with the series finale on May 20.

From queues to QR codes: How UPI transformed India’s digital payments, now driving 49% of global real-time transactions

India’s financial ecosystem has undergone a major transformation in recent years, with the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) emerging as the centrepiece of the country’s digital payments revolution. Just ten years ago, financial transactions in the country were slow and largely cash-dependent but now, they are just a touch or click away, enabling instant, seamless and real-time payments across the country. The shift began with early digital infrastructure such as Real-Time Gross Settlement (RTGS) in 2004 and Immediate Payment Service (IMPS) in 2010, which enabled faster transfers but remained limited in reach. A broader transformation followed with the development of foundational systems under the JAM Trinity: Pradhan Mantri Jan-Dhan Yojana, Aadhaar and mobile connectivity, which expanded financial access and digital readiness.

UPI: India’s core digital payments achievement

Launched in 2016 by the National Payments Corporation of India, UPI has become the most significant milestone in India’s digital payments journey. It simplified transactions by linking bank accounts through a Virtual Payment Address, removing the need for account numbers and IFSC codes. Users can send or receive money instantly using only a mobile number, UPI ID and secure authentication. The system operates 24/7, processes payments in real time and works seamlessly across banks and platforms due to full interoperability. The scale of UPI has expanded rapidly. The network has grown from 216 banks in 2021 to 691 banks by January 2026, creating a unified national payments infrastructure. UPI has become the world’s largest real-time payments system by volume, processing:

  • 21.70 billion transactions in January 2026 alone
  • Rs 28.33 lakh crore in transaction value in January 2026
  • 81% share of all retail digital transactions in India
  • 49% share of global real-time payment transactions

It has achieved this scale in under 10 years, making it one of the fastest-growing financial infrastructures globally. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has recognised UPI as the world’s largest real-time payment system by volume.Beyond scale, UPI has significantly expanded financial inclusion by reducing dependence on cash and enabling instant, low-cost transactions. It has brought millions into the digital economy, particularly small merchants, informal workers and rural users. The ecosystem has also expanded with features such as UPI Lite for small payments, UPI AutoPay for recurring transactions and Credit on UPI for access to pre-approved credit lines. Financial institutions and fintech companies have further built lending and repayment solutions on this infrastructure. Security and system strengthening UPI is supported by strong security architecture, allowing transactions without sharing sensitive banking details and providing built-in grievance redress mechanisms. Further strengthening the system, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has mandated two-factor authentication for digital payments from April 1, 2026. This requires multiple verification layers such as PINs, biometrics or secure tokens along with OTPs, significantly reducing fraud risks and improving trust in digital transactions. Global recognition and expansion India’s UPI model has gained international recognition from institutions such as the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank for its scale and inclusiveness. Global leaders, including French President Emmanuel Macron, have acknowledged India’s ability to process over 20 billion transactions per month through UPI, a level unmatched globally. UPI has also expanded internationally and is now operational or interoperable in countries including the United Arab Emirates, Singapore, Bhutan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, France, Mauritius and Qatar, enabling cross-border payments and supporting global remittance flows.UPI stands as India’s most significant digital financial achievement, a system that has transformed payments at scale, expanded financial inclusion and positioned India as a global leader in real-time digital transactions. Built in under a decade, it has reshaped how the country pays, saves and participates in the formal economy, emerging as a global benchmark for inclusive financial innovation.

IPL 2026: KKR’s Powell credits Mukul’s onslaught, rues umpiring error in defeat

KKR’s Rovman Powell hailed LSG’s Mukul Choudhary for his unbeaten 54 off 27 balls that gave the Knights a tough defeat.

“You want to make Eden Gardens your fortress, it’s your home with your fans behind you. It always feels good at home, but credit to the youngster [Mukul], he batted really well,” Powell said at the post-match media interaction, referring to KKR’s four-match winless run, despite playing three at home.

Finn Allen’s (9) top-edge was caught by Digvesh Rathi at deep third man, with replays suggesting his toes may have touched the boundary rope.

“Definitely [more angles should have been looked at]. We talked about that when he came off. We thought we had seen in the IPL that the umpires have gone upstairs for lesser things, and that are not as close as that,” he said.

Big Mistakes Review: Dan Levy’s Chaotic Crime Comedy Lands Laughs but Loses Logic


Cast: Dan Levy, Taylor Ortega, Laurie Metcalf, Jack Innanen, Boran Kuzum, Abby Quinn, Elizabeth Perkins

Creators: Dan Levy and Rachel Sennott

Rating: 2.5 stars

There’s a certain expectation that follows creators who strike gold early. After the global success of Schitt’s Creek, Dan Levy returns with Big Mistakes, a chaotic crime-comedy co-created with Rachel Sennott. Positioned as a star-driven follow-up in the streaming era, the show attempts to blend dysfunctional family comedy with a spiralling crime plot—but rarely finds the balance it’s chasing.

Set in suburban New Jersey, the series follows Nicky, a tightly wound pastor hiding a relationship that could upend both his personal and professional life. He’s pulled back into family chaos when his domineering mother Linda—midway through a mayoral campaign—insists he and his sister Morgan procure a meaningful gift for their ailing grandmother. What begins as a simple errand quickly derails when Morgan impulsively steals a necklace from a shop, only for the siblings to discover it belongs to a dangerous criminal network. From there, they’re unwillingly dragged into a world of gangsters, secrets and escalating consequences.

The good

Where the show truly comes alive is in its family dynamics. Levy understands the rhythms of sibling relationships—the regressions, the petty arguments, and the strange comfort of shared dysfunction. Nicky and Morgan’s dynamic is consistently engaging, with Taylor Ortega delivering a standout performance as the sharp-tongued, impulsive sister. Their interactions feel lived-in, messy, and often hilarious.

Laurie Metcalf, as the overbearing matriarch, brings a volatile mix of control and vulnerability that anchors the show whenever it threatens to spiral too far. Even in the most exaggerated moments, the performances remain committed. The dialogue is quick, biting, and often amusing enough to keep things moving, while the show’s restless pacing ensures it never feels dull.

The bad

The central premise, however, struggles under scrutiny. The leap from a petty theft to full-blown involvement with organised crime feels forced, with several plot developments existing purely to keep the chaos going. The criminals themselves lack menace or depth, coming across as generic obstacles rather than compelling antagonists.

More frustratingly, character motivations are often thin or inconsistent. Nicky’s role as a pastor, for instance, rarely informs his decisions in meaningful ways, while several supporting arcs feel underdeveloped or forgotten altogether. A late-season twist aims to shock but instead raises more questions than it answers, undermining whatever narrative cohesion the show had built.

The verdict

Big Mistakes thrives as a dysfunctional family comedy but falters as a crime narrative. It’s entertaining in bursts—thanks largely to its cast and dialogue—but the lack of narrative logic prevents it from fully landing. There’s potential here, especially if future episodes lean more into character than chaos. For now, it remains an uneven yet watchable misfire.

CSK vs DC: KL Rahul vs Khaleel Ahmed, Samson vs Axar: 5 key battles in today's match
5 key battles in CSK vs DC at Chepauk

Chennai Super Kings head into their clash against Delhi Capitals under mounting pressure, with both batting and bowling units failing to click so far in IPL 2026.CSK’s bowling has been below par, but the bigger concern remains their misfiring batting lineup. Skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad and new recruit Sanju Samson are yet to find form, while the absence of Dewald Brevis has left a noticeable void. Their young signings have also struggled to make an impact.With two crucial home fixtures at Chepauk within 72 hours, CSK’s campaign could hinge on this phase. However, they face a confident Delhi Capitals side that looks far more settled and balanced.Despite a recent defeat to Gujarat Titans, DC boast strong squad depth. Several players are yet to feature, while KL Rahul has already returned to form with a brilliant 92. Having ended their Chepauk losing streak last season, DC will back themselves to repeat that success.Five key battles to watch in today’s match

1. KL Rahul vs Khaleel Ahmed

The Powerplay battle could set the tone. While Rahul is a class operator, left-arm pacer Khaleel Ahmed has historically troubled him. In seven meetings, Khaleel has dismissed Rahul once, conceding just 51 runs, making this a key early contest.

2. Shivam Dube vs Kuldeep Yadav

The middle-over duel between Shivam Dube (CSK) and Kuldeep Yadav (DC) is a classic strength-vs-strength battle. While Dube is renowned as an “elite” player of spin with a strike rate exceeding 160 against them , Kuldeep has historically managed to restrict his scoring.

3. Sanju Samson vs Axar Patel

This matchup is a massive tactical hurdle for Sanju Samson, who has historically found Axar Patel one of the toughest bowlers to score against in the IPL. Axar has restricted him to 70 runs off 63 balls at a strike rate of just 111.11, with two dismissals.

4. Ruturaj Gaikwad vs Lungi Ngidi

A high-stakes contest between former teammates. Lungi Ngidi has had the upper hand so far, dismissing Gaikwad twice in both meetups while conceding 10 runs, a worrying stat for CSK.

5. Sameer Rizvi vs Noor Ahmad

The battle between Sameer Rizvi (DC) and Noor Ahmad (CSK) is a high-stakes clash between the league’s top-performing uncapped batter and one of its most expensive spinners. While Rizvi is known for his “spin-bashing” reputation, Noor Ahmad provides a unique left-arm wrist-spin challenge that Rizvi has yet to face in his young IPL career.

Watch- Sara Arjun seeks blessings at Mahakaleshwar temple in Ujjain, watch

Actor Sara Arjun, who was last seen in Dhurandhar: The Revenge attended the sacred Bhasma Aarti at the Shree Mahakaleshwar Temple in Ujjain on Saturday. The actress expressed gratitude after marking the visit. 

Sara Arjun seeks blessings at Mahakaleshwar temple

Following her visit, the actor expressed deep emotional gratitude for the spiritual experience. “I have no words. `Bulava aaya aa gaye hum`. There is no better feeling than this in this world. I am overjoyed,” Sara Arjun told ANI.

The Bhasma Aarti (offering with ashes) is considered one of the most significant rituals at the Mahakal temple. It is performed during the auspicious Brahma Muhurta, between 3:30 am and 5:30 am, when devotees gather to witness the divine ceremony.

According to religious beliefs, participation in the Bhasma Aarti is considered highly auspicious and is believed to fulfil the wishes of devotees. The ritual begins with the opening of the temple doors in the early hours of the morning, followed by a ceremonial bath of the deity using Panchamrit, a sacred mixture made of milk, curd, ghee, sugar, and honey.

After the ritual bath, the deity is adorned with hemp and sandalwood before the Bhasma Aarti and dhoop-deep Aarti are performed with devotional chants. The ceremony is accompanied by rhythmic drum beats and the resonating sound of conch shells, creating a deeply spiritual atmosphere inside the temple premises.

The Bhasma Aarti at the Mahakal temple holds immense religious significance and draws devotees from across the country and abroad.

The Mahakaleshwar Temple, dedicated to Lord Shiva, is one of the twelve Jyotirlingas and is considered among the holiest shrines in Hinduism.

Sara Arjun`s work front

Meanwhile, on the work front, Sara is known for her works in `Dhurandhar`, `Dhurandhar: The Revenge`, among others. She played the role of Yalina in the film. She was the love interest of Ranveer Singh`s character Hamza Ali Mazhari in the film. 

In recent days, there have been reports doing the rounds that Sara Arjun has signed Imtiaz Ali`s next film. Amid these reports, casting director Mukesh Chhabra clarified that Sara has not signed any film and will decide her next project after the release of Dhurandhar: The Revenge. He wrote on X, “Sara Arjun has not signed any other film. We are just waiting for D 2. She has not signed any film and has not met anyone regarding any project. So please relax, guys. I will personally update you about her next project. Just wait all the other news is only rumours.”
