‘When kimchi met achar': Siddhant Chaturvedi and Chae Soo-bin's cute BTS pics are making fans wish for a movie
In the advertisement shot for a footwear brand, Chae Soo-bin gets soaked when Siddhant Chaturvedi's car passes by, splashing water on her. The driver stops and glares at her before continuing on his way. As she walks down the road, Soo-bin comes across Siddhant changing the tyre of his car which has broken down. This time, he's the one who is soaked from head to toe. But instead of walking off, Soo-bin offers him shelter with her umbrella. While this clip was cute, their BTS pics are even more endearing. The photographs shared by Siddhant look straight out of a K-Drama, or maybe a very romantic Bollywood film. Take your pick!
In the caption below, Siddhant asked his fans, 'What'd be the title if this was a movie? 👀.' Giving him ideas, one social media user joked, 'Tu ramen main masala,' whereas another comment read, 'Samosa and Soju :).' Another internet user shared, 'When kimchi meet achar 😁😁,' while a fan wrote, 'In Between Chapati and Chopsticks✨.' Meanwhile, other fans strongly manifested a film starring Siddhant and Soo-bin. For instance, a netizen wrote, 'Forget movie title, the chemistry!!!! Aisi chemistry ho toh movie title kuch bhi ho, hum dekh lenge. Writers and Directors where you at? Please cast them in a movie!! 😭❤️,' whereas another comment read, 'I don't care about the name but please someone cast them together 😭😭❤❤ They are looking so so good together 🥺🥺🙌❤.' Another fan wrote, 'What a pair 🔥I wish you both can do a K- drama together @siddhantchaturvedi.'
Well, we hope filmmakers are listening!

Can we leave the arts alone?
The nature of politics which spares nothing neither pauses to ponder deeply for drawing conclusions Despite Diljit and his team having clarified that the movie was shot much before the Pahalgam incident, there are reports that his Indian passport may get cancelled and he may be replaced in multi-starrer, Border 3, to be led by Sunny Deol. (HT File Photo) The other day as I came across Diljit Dosanjh being criticised by netizens (and later also by several media houses) for having worked with Pakistani actress Hania Amir in his latest film, Saradarji 3 – I was suddenly reminded of Coke Studio's Piya Piya Calling song released last year. I listened to it for the first time in Oslo, Norway just some months ago –thanks to my cousin, Bikramdeep Pannu, also my host, who proudly introduced me as I was enjoying the ride in his car in downtown Oslo. 'The song I am going to play now is a rare creation. It's no usual romantic number as it brought together many Norwegian artists with roots in different parts of the world and therefore you will notice many languages rolling out, from Urdu and Persian to Gujarati and Hindi besides Norwegian. To create the song, all artists had flown to Karachi, Pakistan which brought a beautiful result,' he said so enthusiastically. 'When the song was released, Norwegian media lauded it. It was also screened in the City Hall of Oslo where the Alfred Nobel Peace Prize is also given every December. The local administration wanted to show that art of any kind is the best way to keep people connected, whatever culture they may be from.' As the song played, I felt so global. The very same day, I also watched the documentary on its making and noticed the joy of the team, especially the multi-cultural connect they felt and the clear intention of touching the hearts of their audience, irrespective of their country or religion. And, I believe the same is the joy when actors from different countries collaborate for work. Saradarji 3 is no exception but as we all know its release got sadly shelved in India due to the political heat created for a Pakistani actress playing one of the leading roles in it. Despite Diljit and his team having clarified that the movie was shot much before the Pahalgam incident, there are reports that his Indian passport may get cancelled and he may be replaced in multi-starrer, Border 3, to be led by Sunny Deol. And, so much more, which must have shattered Diljit personally and his film's team which eagerly awaited its release. It's of course, not the first instance, when an actor or a movie has been targeted, whenever India –Pakistan relations soured and such episodes will pop up also in the future. Thanks to the nature of politics that spares nothing neither pauses to ponder deeply for drawing conclusions. Art - be it cinema, music or literature, on the other hand unites people and not divides. It builds bridges. Art awakens people and not blinds them. Its intention is far above the intention of politics because it doesn't see any borders but love and unity. Or simply entertainment. Thankfully, some places of the world organise festivals with an aim to unite people hailing from different communities. Take, Alberta's 'Heritage Festival' organised every August in Edmonton, where different world communities settled in Alberta come together to present their food, music and dances. I attended it in 2017 and remember that stages and stalls of India and Pakistan were neighbours of each other. I loved noticing the harmony between the members of the 'parted brothers' as many call them. The entire experience felt like a world tour with unity as the chief theme. Coming back to Diljit Dosanjh, author Chetan Bhagat recently expressed quite thoughtfully on the issue. 'It's unfair to go against him as he is an artist who is just doing his work. The movie was made before any tension between India and Pakistan and Diljit may not also be involved in casting at all. Not allowing someone's movie release is not fair. He and his team have also apologised for taking the Pakistani actress. And, let's not forget that it's not Diljit's movie alone as more than 300 people must have worked for it, from song writers to costume designers,' he said, adding:'Most importantly, we should ensure safety for our country but for that we don't have to hate anyone. Filling ourselves with hatred will take us nowhere.' Hamza Mahzar, my cousin's friend in Oslo, who migrated from Lahore, sent me this message on Instagram soon after the public's rage against him. 'The concept of patriotism is also misunderstood in the minds of people in the subcontinent. True patriotism is not following the opinion of politicians and political gurus but thinking what is best for us. And the best thing is peace, prosperity and harmony,' he wrote. Lastly, just one reminder: can we leave arts alone? Even the shadow of politics' 'P' disturbs it. (The writer is an Amritsar-based freelance contributor)

Who is Jo Yu-ri, Squid Game's player 222? Net worth, educational qualification, and more
When Jo Yu-ri first appeared on television, it wasn't in a drama or a film. It was on a talent survival show. She was young, maybe a bit unsure, but her voice carried something clear. Now, years later, she's appeared in one of the most globally talked-about dramas: Squid Game, and her performance has left people stunned. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Jo played Player 222, a pregnant woman named Kim Jun-hee. In the deadly world of the show, her character felt fragile at first. But as the story unfolded, she became one of the strongest presences on screen. There wasn't anything loud or over-the-top about the role; it was quiet, emotional, and incredibly human. A different kind of fame Born in Busan in 2001, Jo didn't grow up on film sets. She came from the competitive world of K-pop. In 2018, she was chosen to debut in IZ*ONE after placing third on the show Produce 48. That group became huge almost overnight. Concerts, albums, fan meets it was all a blur. But in 2021, IZ*ONE ended, and the members went their own ways. Some idols disappear after that kind of group disbandment. Jo didn't. She released her first solo song, Glassy, not long after. It was a bright, hopeful track, a contrast to what she'd go on to do in Squid Game. Acting with no formal training One thing that surprised people: Jo isn't a trained actor. She didn't go to a film school. She wasn't in musicals or student plays. Her experience was mostly music videos, stage shows, and reality content. So when fans saw her in such an emotionally heavy role, they were taken aback in a good way. In an interview with People, Jo said she cried for a long time after filming her final scene. It had taken a toll on her. That moment in the show, when her character gives up her life to save her newborn, isn't easy to forget. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Viewers around the world said it was one of the most devastating scenes in the entire series. What she earns, and what's next? Jo Yu-ri hasn't publicly shared what she earns, and there's no official number. Still, given her years in IZ*ONE, her solo work, and her recent drama success, many believe she's earned somewhere around $1–3 million. That includes music sales, digital streams, endorsements, and now, acting contracts. She's also signed to various brand deals in fashion and beauty. Her image is clean, warm, and quietly confident, making her a natural fit for that world. This year, she's expected to release another solo album called Episode 25. From what's been hinted at in interviews, the tone may be deeper, maybe even a little darker. Understandably so, after a project like Squid Game. She didn't just show up in Squid Game; she left an impact. The kind that gets people to ask, 'Who is she?' and then go looking for her past work. Jo Yu-ri might've started out as a singer. But now, she's something more.
