Bigg Boss is all set to be back with another brand-new season, and the speculation regarding the contestants' list is already making rounds on the internet. Among the rumoured contestants is Lataa Saberwal, popularly known for playing Akshara's mother in Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai. A report from Saas Bahu Aur Betiyaan revealed that Lataa was approached to participate in Bigg Boss 19, hosted by Salman Khan. The report further admitted that the actress even agreed to be a part of the reality show, which sparked excitement among the fans who were eager to see Lataa beyond the format of TV serials.

Who Really Owns Super Dog Krypto? James Gunn's Superman Finally Answers
Last Updated: In a mid-credit scene, Superman was seen sitting with his loyal companion, at an otherworldly place, observing Earth. James Gunn's latest venture, Superman, premiered in theatres on Friday, July 11. The film in the revamped DC universe introduced David Corenswet as Clark Kent, the new Man of Steel. The new action drama follows the superhero, who has been actively watching over Metropolis for three years, while also juggling his life as a reporter. He goes up against the classic nemesis, Lex Luthor, played by Nicholas Hoult, also crossing paths with other DC superheroes like Guy Gardner (Green Lantern), Hawkgirl, Mister Terrific, and Metamorpho. Fans have been loving the story, but are a bit confused about the post-credit scene in the film. If you're wondering how many are actually there, don't worry, we'll tell you in detail what all unfolds. Superman's Post-Credit Scenes Towards the end of the movie, Superman has just defeated his arch-nemesis Lex. That's when Supergirl is introduced in the storyline. Played by Milly Alcock, Supergirl suddenly appears in the Fortress of Solitude, crashing in with her usual energy. She unveils the real identity of Superman's loyal pet Krypto, revealing that the super-powered dog actually belongs to her, and Clark was just dog-sitting while she partied on other alien planets. Her entry into the film was a teaser for Supergirl's upcoming solo movie. After the main credits roll a bit, viewers get a mid-credit scene, where Superman and Krypto are sitting together at an otherworldly place, observing Earth. As there was no major twist or action here, the peaceful moment was added mid-scene. The post-credit scene, however, did not reveal any new villain or give a hint at what's next for Superman. Instead, it was more of a comedy scene. In it, we see Superman and Mister Terrific, played by Edi Gathegi, looking at a building damaged by Lex. It was rebuilt by Mister Terrific. As the scene progressed, Superman tells him that the rebuilding looked a bit 'off," which left Mister Terrific annoyed. The two engage in a fun banter before Mister Terrific walks away from the frame. Reflecting on his actions, Superman then mutters that he can be a 'jerk" sometimes. Produced by Peter Safran and James Gunn, Superman features a star-studded cast, which includes Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Anthony Carrigan as Rex Mason / Metamorph, Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner / Green Lantern, and Isabela Merced as Kendra Saunders / Hawkgirl. Superman is now running in cinemas. Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's. Please keep discussions respectful and constructive.
