'$400 makeup, no-photo policy': Bride faces heat for 47-point bridesmaid checklist
A soon-to-be bride's extreme list of bridesmaid demands has gone viral, with one friend stepping down from the role after being handed the 47-point requirement list. The list included strict and costly conditions such as mandatory spray tans. (Representational image). (Pexel) A Reddit post, shared under the popular thread r/weddingshaming, reveals how the bride, referred to as 'Sarah', blindsided her bridal party with a document titled 'Bridesmaid Expectations & Requirements.' 'I thought it would be like… wear this color, here's the dress I like, maybe some basic timeline stuff,' the bridesmaid wrote. 'Nope. 47 numbered items. FORTY-SEVEN.' The list included strict and costly conditions such as mandatory spray tans, $400 non-negotiable hair and makeup appointments, and even a ban on posting any event photos without the bride's approval. But one requirement in particular left the bridesmaid stunned, contributing $200 toward the bachelorette party on top of planning and paying for it. The final point on the list reportedly read: 'Remember this is my day and your job is to make me shine!' Feeling overwhelmed, the bridesmaid texted Sarah to say she couldn't commit to such expectations and needed to step down. However, the bride's reaction was emotional. 'She called me crying saying, 'real friends would do anything even if it takes some sacrifice,'' the post revealed. The incident has since sparked debate online about unreasonable bridal party expectations and the financial burden weddings often place on friends. Take a look at the post: Many took to the comments section to react. A user wrote, 'That is gonna live rent-free in my head now.' Another added, 'Wait... forty-seven items? That's not just demanding, it's downright perplexing!'

Aamir Khan says he tried to kill himself with alcohol after Reena Dutta divorce, ‘passed out every night' for over a year
If 'Mere Saamne wale khidki mein ek chand sa mukhda rehta hai' had a face, it would be that of a young Aamir Khan and his first wife, Reena Dutta. They spent long hours in front of their windows just to catch a glimpse of each other. The two were neighbours when Aamir expressed his love for the 'hard-to-get' Reena, and chased her until she agreed to date him. Blinded by love, Aamir even wrote a letter in his own blood to Reena, thinking it would impress her. It didn't. However, the two secretly got married, with Reena even briefly appearing on his debut film Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak. All was well until they decided to go their separate ways in 2002, just a year after their first big production, Lagaan. They were parents to a son, Junaid Khan, and a daughter, Ira Khan. The separation was not as easy as they made it look in the press. It turned Aamir into an alcoholic. He became anti-social and gave up on films for over a year. In a promo shared by The Lallantop, Aamir Khan recalled his struggles after the separation, and said, 'When Reena and I separated, that evening I finished an entire bottle of alcohol, and for the next 1.5 years I drank every day. I never slept. Mai behosh hojata tha daaru peeke (I would lose consciousness due to heavy drinking.) I was trying to kill myself.' He explained, 'I was not even working then. Neither did I care to meet anybody. The same year, Lagaan released and a newspaper article called me 'Man of the year, Aamir Khan'. I found it very ironical.' ALSO READ | Aamir Khan calls marriage to first wife Reena Dutta 'impulsive', feels decision should not be taken 'in panic': 'Jawaani ke josh me bahot sari cheezein…' With tears in his eyes, Aamir also sang lines from the song 'Aapki Yaad Aati Rahi Raat Bhar' from the 1978 film Gaman. Previously, talking about his relationship with Reena, Aamir said on the sixth season of Koffee with Karan, 'Reena and I were married for 16 long years. When we split up, it was traumatic for us and our families. We tried to deal with the situation as best as we could. Reena and I did not lose love or respect for each other post out split.' Post divorce with Reena, Aamir Khan married Kiran Rao in 2005. They welcomed a son, Azad. However, they too separated ways in 2021 after 16 years of marriage. Currently, Aamir is dating his friend of 20 years, Gauri Spratt. He maintains a cordial relationship with both his ex-wives and continues to co-parent their children.

Kannappa Movie: Showtimes, Review, Songs, Trailer, Posters, News & Videos
Kannappa Story: Kannappa is a devotional epic inspired by sacred lore. It traces the spiritual journey of Thinnadu (Vishnu Manchu), an atheist tribal hunter known for his raw instincts and survival skills, who undergoes a profound inner transformation. His path eventually leads him to become one of Lord Shiva's most devoted followers. As the story unfolds, Thinnadu's encounters with divine elements and his evolving sense of purpose take centre stage. His relationship with Nemali (Preity Mukhundhan), who acts as a feisty yet grounded counterbalance, adds emotional texture to his arc. Kannappa Review: Directed by Mukesh Kumar Singh, Kannappa is a sincere attempt at retelling revered lore with visual grandeur. While the film opens on a slow and stretched note, it gradually finds its rhythm and builds to a soul-stirring finale. Vishnu Manchu brings sincerity and steadiness to the lead role. Prabhas makes a dynamic appearance as Rudra, energising the screen with his commanding and entertaining presence. Akshay Kumar makes a confident Telugu debut as Lord Shiva, fitting naturally into the film's spiritual atmosphere. Kajal Aggarwal adds elegance as Parvati, while Mohanlal's composed portrayal of Kirata brings a quiet strength to the narrative. Mohan Babu is firm and dependable as Mahadeva Shasthri, and R. Sarathkumar leaves an impression as Nathanathudu. The supporting cast, including Brahmanandam, Madhoo, Siva Balaji, Mukesh Rishi, Devaraj, Brahmaji, and others, contribute meaningfully, helping flesh out the world around Thinnadu. While the film hits the dramatic notes effectively, some of the emotional layers, particularly around Thinnadu's inner conflict and relationships, could have been explored with more depth. The narrative has heart, but a deeper dive into the character's internal struggles would have added more weight to the transformation. That said, Kannappa scores high on visual and musical impact. Sheldon Chau's cinematography captures the beauty of forested landscapes and celestial moments with finesse, giving the film a rich visual texture. Some of the VFX elements fall short of the film's ambition, but the overall sincerity of the production shines through. Stephen Devassy's background score is another strong point, heightening the emotional beats, especially during the intense and moving final act. Watch it if you enjoy sacred stories with strong visual storytelling and emotional payoff. Kannappa ends on a powerful note that resonates with devotees and admirers of culturally rooted cinema.
