Ram Kapoor says, ‘my name is not Khan' when asked if he gets more roles after weight loss; Farah Khan reacts

Actor Ram Kapoor recently drew attention for his impressive weight loss transformation, prompting speculation about whether he used Ozempic. However, the actor clarified that his transformation was achieved naturally. In a recent vlog, Farah Khan visited Ram and Gautami Kapoor's home along with her cook, Dilip. During their conversation, she asked Ram if he had been receiving more work opportunities since shedding the kilos. Farah Khan visits Ram Kapoor and Gautami Kapoor's house. As Farah entered Ram and Gautami's house, she asked Dilip if he knew them. When Farah pointed at Ram, Dilip said, "Tiger Shroff". He then went on to call Gautami Deepika Padukone, leaving her excited and happy. Farah was later seen exploring their house and indulging in a fun conversation. Farah praised Ram for losing weight at the age of 50 and asked if he now gets more work since his transformation. To this, Ram replied, "Some people reach a level where they get work because they have nothing more to prove. I am no star, I'll never be a star, my name is not Khan. Main size main bada hun yaa chota, kaam milta hai. Maine yeh (weight loss) kaam ke liye nahi kiya, career ke liye nahi kiya, apne aap ke liye kiya (Whether I'm big or small in size, I still get work. I didn't do this (weight loss) for work or for my career, I did it for myself). I promised myself that at the age of 50 I will do it.' Farah was seen making faces at his 'I am not a star' remark. Disagreeing with him, she said, 'He is a big star.' Ram Kapoor's recent web series Ram is currently seen in Mistry, a Hindi remake of Monk.

'Squid Game' creator says VIPs in show resemble Elon Musk: ‘Everybody talks about him'

The modern drama Squid Game continues to mirror real-world dynamics as it wraps up its run with an engaging third season. Hwang Dong-hyuk , the creator of the series, recently called attention to the way that the show's wealthy VIP characters mirror contemporary power structures, using one notable individual in particular. 'Elon Musk is everywhere these days, right?" In a recent interview with Time, Hwang said, "Everybody talks about him." He is a showman in addition to being the leader of a massive tech company that virtually controls the world. Naturally, I thought, "Oh, some of the VIPs do kind of resemble Elon Musk " after finishing Season 3 . He continued. The VIPs in Squid Game are wealthy English-speaking spectators who like to watch violent life-or-death games take place while hiding behind elaborate masks. Although their presence has always been concerning, they assume an even more sinister role in the show's last chapter. Hwang clarified, 'They take their masks off and go into the game and kill others with their own hands.' He pointed out that their change from passive observers to active participants reflects a change in the way power is exercised in the real world. 'In the past, those that really controlled the system and maintained power, they were hidden behind the curtain, almost like this big unseen conspiracy. However, it's no longer the case, especially in America,' he stated. "We talk a lot about oligarchy these days, but these so-called big tech owners, they step up, telling everyone who they're backing with their money," he added. Hwang claims that influential people today don't hide their influence. 'The people who really control the power and the system, they no longer hide behind a curtain. They willingly take their masks off, almost as if to declare, 'We're the ones running everything. We're the ones in control',' he continued. The Squid Game universe might be growing in the meantime. Deadline has learned from a number of sources that Netflix is working with renowned director David Fincher on a new English-language spinoff. Speculation has been going on for months, but official confirmation is still pending. According to insiders, unless he takes on a feature film in the interim, this project might be David's main priority in 2025.

Birthing scene from Netflix's Squid Game season 3 leaves the internet baffled, calling it ‘misogynistic propaganda'

The South Korean web series Squid Game, which enthralled viewers with its concept when it first premiered on Netflix in 2021, has ended after three seasons. The final season, which premiered on 27 June, left the internet baffled over the way a birthing scene involving Kim Jun Hee, aka Player 222 (Jo Yuri), was handled. Some even think it had 'misogynistic' or 'propaganda' undertones. *Spoilers ahead* Jo Yuri plays Kim Jun Hee, aka Player 222, in the third season of Squid Game. The second season showed how Player 222 decided to take part in the Squid Game despite being heavily pregnant. In episode 2 of season 3, she gives birth in the middle of a highly tense game with the help of Jang Gerum Ja, aka Player 149 (Kang Ae Sim). Not only does she give birth quickly in the middle of a game, but she even walks a few minutes after that. People on the internet wondered if the male creator, writer, and director of the show, Hwang Dong-hyuk, was aware of how childbirth works. Numerous frustrated people on X (formerly Twitter) made posts on the ridiculousness of it all. One person wrote, 'even outside of the other baby plot issues it was so strange to me how junhees water broke out of nowhere with no buildup to it and she literally WALKED OFF childbirth ??? like her broken ankle impacted her more than giving birth with no real medical care bow does that work.' Another ridiculed the plot points of Squid Game, 'Squid game 3 was realistic. Gihun made it to the final games twice. Junhee gave birth in less than 15 minutes, no bleeding, nothing, but her broken ankle was treated as more painful than childbirth. The baby didn't have diapers and was fed twice but still survived.' One even shared a meme, writing, 'player 222 gave birth to her first child in less than 10 min, when actually first labour lasts maaaaaany hours.' A fan of the show even questioned why the director had added the scene if he wasn't aware of how childbirth works, 'lowk i cant get over how hdh had junhee give birth completely unmedicated and then walk it off 5 minutes later…why did you add it if you didnt know anything about it.' Another wrote, 'the fact that junhee gave birth in under 10 minutes and then walked it off like she was doing it every other week is making me ctfu WHO WROTE THIS!!!!' 'This is misogynistic propaganda' At the end of the three-season ordeal, Player 222's baby ends up winning the game, a twist that received mixed responses. Many reactions to that ranged from calling it 'propaganda' to 'misogynistic'. A frustrated X user posted a meme, writing, 'They definitely tried to make this season of Squid Game into propaganda for South Korea's declining birth rate #SquidGame #SquidGame3.' Another wrote, 'How it feels watching s3 of squid game just for it to be misogynistic, transmysogynistic, and a bunch of prolife bulls**t.' A person posted a hilarious meme, writing, 'can't take squid game s3 seriously they're saying the newborn baby counts as a player.' Another questioned the series ending, 'I'm sorry but having your entire series boil down to all your main characters basically sacrificing themselves for a baby that hasnt even uttered a word is just stupid. How is the audience supposed to root for the baby when we just met the baby two seconds ago?? #SquidGame.' Squid Game is a dystopian thriller about a secret contest in which 456 players in financial hardship risk their lives to play children's games.
