Veere Di Wedding has been receiving a mixed response from moviegoers. While for some it’s just a celebration of friendship, for others, the film is nothing but a promotion of brands. Indian Express’ film critic Shubhra Gupta has called the movie a “fun ride”. In her review, Shubhra has written, “Veere Di Wedding is a fun ride, which squeezes past its creaky tropes and partial squelchiness by some smart casting choices, and perky performances. And lines which connect.”
The Sonam Kapoor-Kareena Kapoor starrer has overpowered another release of the week, Bhavesh Joshi Superhero. With no Hindi release on coming Friday as well, it seems like Veere Di Wedding is up for another good weekend at the ticket counters.

Emma Thompson: I was always paid less than my male counterparts

Emma Thompson says she was always paid less than her male colleagues. The 59-year-old actor-writer said women are still treated as “second-class citizens”. She also advocated to publish salaries to reveal the gender pay gap. “I was always paid less than my male counterparts. Publishing figures is the first step. “It’s a forensic way of looking at how women are second-class citizens, and I appreciate that because it’s not emotional. This is the fact: this person does the same work for less money, and that’s just wrong,” Thompson told Good Housekeeping magazine.

Bobby Deol was the ‘it boy’ of the 90s but will his comeback still hold that charm?

With his curly hair, bobbling head and round sunglasses, we still think of “ Duniya Haseeno Ka Mela ” when we think of Bobby Deol. After a string of popular films like Gupt and Soldier among others, Bobby made quite a name for himself in the 90s. Bobby was never known for his acting chops. What he was known for was his swag, even though the word did not exist back in the day. His undeniable charisma and those long wavy hair made him stand out in the crowd.
