Food Pharmer Reveals Unique '8 Legal Notice' Outfit He Had Planned For Cannes Debut

NDTV25-05-2025
The Cannes Film Festival 2025 kicked off on May 13 and concluded on May 24. Several Indian celebrities marked their presence at the biggest film festival of the year, including Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Alia Bhatt, Janhvi Kapoor and several influencers like Parul Gulati and Nancy Tyagi.
Influencer Revant Himatsingka, aka Food Pharmer, revealed that he was supposed to make his debut at Cannes this year but had to cancel his trip. In a post shared on LinkedIn, Revant gave a glimpse of the outfit he had planned to wear at Cannes. It featured a formal blazer set incorporated with eight legal notices he has received over the years from various food giants for his videos.
Revant Himatsingka is known for his Instagram videos in which he highlights marketing practices used in the promotion of prepackaged foods. The nutrition and health influencer is most recognised for his work in promoting consumer health literacy and exposing food business marketing tactics that are allegedly deceptive.
For his Cannes outing, Food Pharmer tried to include a nod to his past legal troubles in his outfit. The sleeves of the blazer were "made from 8 real legal notices sent by food giants" to him. "Nutrition labels were printed across the jacket," and the back of his outfit was "embroidered with one line: Label Padhega Duniya," revealed Revant in his LinkedIn post.
He added, "My goal with Cannes was to take 'Label Padhega India' movement global and make it into 'Label Padhega Duniya.'"
Explaining the reason behind missing Cannes, Revant Himatsingka concluded, "24 hours before take off, the India-Pakistan tensions escalated and I made the call of not going. We had spent months on the visa, outfit, travel etc, but it didn't take time to make the decision to not go."

Watch: Hilarious! Ravindra Jadeja asks England spectator to change t-shirt during IND vs ENG 5th Test

Ravindra Jadeja ask England crowd to change t-shirt (Screengrab/AP) Cricket fans at The Oval witnessed a lighthearted moment on Day 3 of the fifth and final Test between India and England when Ravindra Jadeja politely asked a spectator to change his t-shirt mid-match. The moment unfolded while Jadeja was batting, only to be distracted by a fan seated behind the bowler's arm wearing a bright red t-shirt. The colour seemed to interfere with Jadeja's sightline, a common issue for players when trying to focus on the ball coming out of the bowler's hand. Go Beyond The Boundary with our YouTube channel. SUBSCRIBE NOW! Rather than create a scene, Jadeja simply informed the on-field umpire about the problem. After security personnel and match officials approached the individual, he eventually agreed to change his t-shirt. Instead of moving, the spectator gamely switched into a grey t-shirt right then and there, drawing cheers from the crowd. Watch: Jadeja gave him a thumbs-up and a grin, diffusing the situation with trademark charm. The incident, caught on camera, quickly went viral, with social media hailing it as yet another reason to love Jadeja's on-field personality. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Is this legal?

Kerala Rolls Out Draft Film Policy Aimed At Funding, Gender Equality And Global Reach

Last Updated: Kerala's draft film policy aims to formalise the industry, enhance global presence, and promote inclusivity. It includes financial mechanisms, gender equity, and tech adoption. In a significant step towards transforming its film sector, the Kerala government has released a comprehensive draft film policy aimed at formalising the industry, enhancing its global footprint, and promoting inclusivity. The policy was unveiled on Saturday during the ongoing two-day Malayalam Film Conclave in Thiruvananthapuram. Framed with a futuristic vision, the policy outlines strategic goals including industry recognition for film production and exhibition, improved financial mechanisms, gender equity, and the adoption of advanced technology. It also aspires to make Kerala a regional production hub while preserving the cultural legacy of Malayalam cinema. Declaring that film production will now be recognised as a formal industry, the draft underlines the benefits of transparency, financial clarity, and social accountability. 'The recognition of film production as an industry will bring multiple advantages, enhancing transparency and promoting social responsibility within the sector," the policy notes. One of the cornerstones of the policy is an inclusive financing framework. It proposes a general incentive scheme for Malayalam cinema, with targeted support for women and marginalised communities. Plans are also in place to establish a venture capital fund for film production, with the involvement of private players and provisions for crowdfunding, especially for films with strong social relevance. This fund will be managed by the Kerala State Film Development Corporation. To ensure Kerala remains competitive on the global stage, the policy encourages the production of films in other Indian and foreign languages within the state. A single-window film facilitation centre will also be launched to simplify permit procedures and attract more projects to the region. The policy highlights that India, producing over 2,000 films annually, remains the world's largest film-producing nation. Malayalam cinema ranks second after Hindi, with around 300 films produced each year. In 2023, Kerala contributed over ₹2,000 crore to the national box office, reflecting its significant role in India's cinematic economy. A new Film Development Council, led by Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan and co-chaired by Culture Minister Saji Cherian, is proposed as the apex body to guide implementation. The council will also include an industry representative as vice-chairperson. The draft has been circulated to stakeholders and will be deliberated further during the conclave, which concludes on Sunday. The government reiterated its commitment to consulting film bodies on matters such as fair wages, insurance, and working conditions, ensuring that reforms benefit every layer of the industry. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Hrithik Roshan's Latest Look Breaks The Internet, Fans Call Him ‘Greek God'

Actor is gearing up for War 2. The film is already generating massive buzz thanks to its action-packed trailer. Hrithik Roshan is once again proving why he's called the style icon of Bollywood. The actor, gearing up for the much-awaited release of War 2, recently dropped new photos in a sharply tailored suit, and fans are completely losing it. Note that War 2 also stars Kiara Advani and Jr NTR in the lead role. Taking to his Instagram handle, Hrithik Roshan shared a series of photos in suits and wrote, 'Thank you Sri Lanka for a memorable evening. See you soon in the cinemas 14th aug #WAR2." One of the fan wrote, 'Tenu Suit always suit kar da! Dashing Duggu as always." Another wrote, 'Hrithik, you are Amazing!!! Mr. Perfect!" Many called his Greek God. Take a look here: Recently, the superstar has launched a contest based on the hookstep of the recently released romantic track Aavan Jaavan, and the reward? A chance to meet the man himself. Taking to Instagram on Friday (August 1), Hrithik unveiled the challenge in a video message, urging fans to recreate the song's now-viral dance step. 'My latest song Aavan Jaavan from War 2 is out now and YRF is doing a contest on the hook step. Iss gaane ka hookstep kaafi simple aur easy hai… Toh kariye Aavan Jaavan ka hookstep Kabir aur Kavya ke jaise to join and maybe win this contest," he said. Released on July 31, Aavan Jaavan is already setting the tone for the film's romantic subplot. Featuring Hrithik and Kiara Advani amid the breathtaking backdrops of Europe, the song has all the hallmarks of a Bollywood blockbuster melody — sweeping visuals, sizzling chemistry, and soaring vocals by Arijit Singh and Nikhita Gandhi. Meanwhile, War 2 is already generating massive buzz thanks to its action-packed trailer. Directed by Brahmāstra helmer Ayan Mukerji, the film brings together Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR in a never-seen-before pairing that promises fireworks. The sequel to 2019's War, this next installment in the YRF Spy Universe is poised to be one of the biggest cinematic spectacles of the year. With themes of patriotism, espionage, and high-octane drama, War 2 is all set to raise the stakes in the spy-action genre. From thunderous face-offs to sizzling romance, fans can expect a full-blown cinematic experience when the film hits theatres later this year. But before that, it's time to dance like Kabir and Kavya — and maybe, just maybe, meet Hrithik himself. view comments First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
