Netflix's The Great Indian Kapil Show: Jackson Wang graces the stage with Pratik Gandhi, Jaideep Ahlawat, Vijay Varma and Jitendra Kumar
Episode 4 of The Great Indian Kapil Show Season 3 was a full-on rollercoaster of laughs, legwork, and legendary moments! With Jackson Wang gracing the stage alongside desi powerhouses Pratik Gandhi, Jaideep Ahlawat, Vijay Varma, and Jitendra Kumar — this one served global energy with full Indian tadka. Here are the top 5 moments that had us hooting, rooting, and dancing in our seats:
Pratik Gandhi turns Jackson Wang into Paakko Gujarati Chokro!
In a moment no one saw coming, K-Pop met Garba! After Jackson sweetly taught the cast some steps from his song, Kapil nudged Pratik Gandhi to return the favour Gujju style — and what followed was Jackson dancing like a total pro to some garba beats. Step by step, he matched Pratik with full grace. Even Pratik looked impressed and it looked like his new student had officially earned his Gujarati Chokro badge!
STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD
Jaideep's real-life proposal story = Green Flag Nahi Green Forest
When asked about his real-life love story, Jaideep Ahlawat confessed that proposing wasn't exactly in his Jaat DNA. Vijay Varma, his FTII buddy, added with a grin, 'Hum sabko pata tha ki bhabhi aane waali hai.' Jaideep explained that his now-wife joined FTII a year after him as his junior, but when asked how he proposed, he quipped, 'Aapko lagta hai ki Jaat aadmi ko propose karna aata hai?' Vijay joked he must have handed her a ghee dabba saying 'for you,' to which Jaideep added, 'Doodh dahi ki kami nehin rehne dunga, baaki tu bata!' Romance, rustic style!
Vijay Varma's Delhi Fan Story is definitely one to remember!
Over breakfast in Delhi with his director, Vijay noticed a couple staring at him — intently. But only one of them knew who he was. 'Yeh ek dusre ke saath guessing game khel rahe hai aur subject main hoon!' he laughed. He said the guy just kept nudging his girlfriend to guess, 'Just look at him and think!' Meanwhile, they were peeking into his plate too. His director asked, 'Bhagau inko?' but Vijay, ever the sport, replied, 'Nahin, mujhe maza aa raha hai!' Honestly, same.
Move over dance reels, Jaideep Ahlawat just dropped the ultimate 'Qatal' step!
Jaideep Ahlawat just dropped the hottest new dance routine for 'Qatal'. The actor who is known for his serious roles will be showing off his moves as well. Right after doing 'jaadu' on everyone with his moves in Jewel Thief: The Heist Begins, he lit up the floor of The Great Indian Kapil Show Season 3 with his jalwa! Serious on-screen? Yes. Serious on the dance floor? Absolutely not.
Sunil Grover dropped a tune… and suddenly, it was a full-blown dance party!
Sunil Grover as Diamond Raja stole the spotlight with a song straight out of his struggling actor days. Bringing the entire cast — Jaideep, Vijay, Jitendra, and Pratik — on stage, he belted out, 'This is my left profile, this is my right profile, I know swimming also, I know horse riding also, open to bold sceeeeeeeeens.' The result? A full-blown dance party that felt part audition, part madness, and 100% iconic.

Dhadak 2 Day 5 India Box Office: Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri's movie fails to entice audiences; Adds Rs 1.50 crore on Discount Tuesday
Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri-led Dhadak 2, couldn't gain much traction despite discounted ticket fares on Tuesday. The romantic drama revolving around caste discrimination is heading for a disastrous end. Dhadak 2 adds Rs 1.50 crore on Day 5, cume approaches Rs 14 crore Opened with Rs 3.50 crore on Day 1, Dhadak 2 saw some growth on its second day where it collected Rs 3.75 crore. Further, it witnessed a nominal jump and collected Rs 4 crore on Sunday, wrapping the opening weekend at Rs 11 crore. However, the movie fell flat on the weekdays. It collected just Rs 1.25 crore on its first Monday, dropping by 64% over the opening day. The Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri movie couldn't even see the much-needed jump on Tuesday despite the blockbuster pricing. As per estimates, Dhadak 2 has netted another Rs 1.50 crore on Day 5, taking the total cume to Rs 14 crore net at the Indian box office. Day-wise box office collections of Dhadak 2 are as follows: Directed by Shazia Iqbal, the romantic drama met with majorly positive reception- however it didn't translate into the footfalls. One of the key reasons behind its low box office performance is dull marketing and promotional strategy. The remake factor had also worked against the movie. Moreover, the movie faced tough completions from Mahavatar Narsimha, Saiyaara, and Son Of Sardaar 2. A better marketing strategy and strong promotional assets would have benefitted the movie in true sense. Dhadak 2 in cinemas Dhadak 2 is playing in cinemas. You can book your tickets from the online ticket-booking websites or grab them from the counter itself. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates.

2025 VMAs nominations spark controversy over BTS' Jin and J-Hope snubs as all BLACKPINK members get nods: 'Disclose criteria'
The 2025 Video Music Awards just revealed their nomination list, and things immediately got messy, especially in the K-pop category. Fans expected a little drama, sure, but not this level of confusion. BTS's Jin and J-Hope, both of whom dropped some of the strongest solo tracks this year, didn't make the cut. Meanwhile, all four BLACKPINK members landed solo nods, and fans are already coming up with scathing accusations. The nominations were supposed to celebrate the best in K-pop, but right now, it feels more like a popularity contest, according to BTS ARMY. VMAs 2025 spark chaos over K-pop nominations The Best K‑Pop category at the 2025 VMAs includes seven nominees: Whiplash by Aespa, Like Jennie by Jennie, Who by Jimin, Earthquake by Jisoo, Born Again by Lisa featuring Doja Cat and Raye, Chk Chk Boom by Stray Kids, and Toxic Till the End by Rosé. While all four BLACKPINK members landed solo nominations, Jimin is the only BTS member to appear on the list. #VMAs Best K-pop nominees:Aespa – 'Whiplash' Jennie – 'Like Jennie ' Jimin – 'Who'Jisoo – 'Earthquake' Lisa ft. Doja Cat & Raye – 'Born Again' Stray Kids – 'Chk Chk Boom' Rosé – 'Toxic Till the End' The BTS snub: Jin and J-Hope left out One of the biggest talking points this year is who didn't make the cut, and at the centre of it are BTS's Jin and J-Hope. Both artists released solo work that not only performed well commercially but also made a serious cultural impact. J-Hope's tracks Killin' It Girl, Mona Lisa, and Sweet Dreams emerged as chartbusters, dominating streaming platforms and showcasing his range as a performer. Meanwhile, Jin's Heart on the Window and Don't Say You Love Me struck a chord with listeners, pulling in massive numbers globally—numbers that, in many cases, outpaced those of several nominees. But neither name appears on the VMAs list. Only Jimin is nominated, and while fans are proud of that, it's hard to ignore how the rest of BTS was completely shut out. Fans are now questioning whether BLACKPINK's agency YG Entertainment had a hand in shaping the lineup, with some openly suggesting that industry politics may have played a bigger role than actual performance or impact. 'Disclose nomination criteria': ARMYs enraged One fan on X wrote, "Jin has better chart results than more than half of this list. He has better streams, better sales, and a better debut on billboard charts. He is still charting, unlike half of these people. Why is he not nominated? What's the criteria? Where's the transparency? Disclose nomination criteria @vmas." "Jin has accomplished way more than anyone on this list, yet he didn't get a single nomination. Just wondering, did the rules change, or is something else going on?" tweeted another ARMY. A third added, "Vmas are so annoyingly ambiguous with their noms, like how are Jin and hobi not there… It's laughable. anyway, let's make sure we win this for Jimin!!" Check out more reactions below: then how come Jin and Jhope didn't get nominated? @vmas b!tchass answer the way jin adn jhope were robbed off the VMA'S is we have know they r attendance just do our best for jimin tho(fuck u vmas) Let's be serious, how come neither Jin nor Tae or even Jhope were nominated for the VMAS while #her, who was a total flop, is nominated????
