From Bahraich to global beauty pageant
Hailing from the Bahraich district, Savita Varma, 44, always aspired to fly big time. She realised her dream when she was selected to represent India in the global pageant Mrs Universe 2025, in the Philippines between October 1-9. Savita, a mother of two daughters, is a teacher and yoga instructor. With her husband's unflinching cooperation, Savita is now preparing 20 hours a day to compete. Once well settled in family life, she decided to fulfil 'my dreams', said Savita. In 2023, she saw a beauty contest ad on Facebook and gave an audition. She was selected and went on to ace the Mrs UP contest. That boosted her confidence to dream bigger. All is well with Yogi and Brij Bhushan Sharan 'He is the 'mukhya mantri' (CM), and I am 'khali mantri' (empty minister). I have to bow down,' said former MP and ex-chief of Wrestling Federation of India, Brij Bhushan Sharan Singh, after he met with CM Yogi Adityanath earlier this week. The Bahubali politician had last met Adityanath over three years ago. And he philosophised: 'Since he holds a higher position, I must bow down. I stand at the crossroads, like Kabir in the marketplace, wishing everyone well, with no special friendships or enmities.' Singh scotched rumours of cold ties between them. 'Both found the meeting pleasant,' he added.

‘Kaha Se Aate Hai Ye Log?' Saree-Clad Woman Sits Atop Tree In Bizarre Viral Video
The dramatic visual was deeply unsettling, more so because the tree where the woman sat was swaying dangerously. How far can you go for an Instagram reel to reach millions of views? From dancing on moving trains to recording oneself at the edge of a cliff, some people really take it too far, risking their lives just for some likes and comments. In a similar display of absurdity, a woman has grabbed attention online for executing a bizarre stunt. It involves her sitting atop a leafless tree and calling herself 'pedo ki rani (the queen of trees)." The video of the same was posted by the woman on her Instagram handle, sparking mixed reactions. The woman was seen perched on the bare branches of a tree, clad in a red saree. Rolling hills and a distant townscape featured in the backdrop. While the exact height of the tree was unclear from the video, it appeared to be towering. The dramatic visual was deeply unsettling, more so because the tree where the woman sat was swaying dangerously. Not to forget, her choice of outfit added to the risk. One misstep and the situation could turn into a tragedy in a matter of seconds. The video opened to the woman acting as if she were the queen of trees. She said, 'Mai pedo ki rani aur itni jaldi khatam nahi hogi meri kahani. Senapati, jake rajya mei ghoshna kardo ki paedo ki sirf ekhi rani, maharani hai. Kuynki koi bhi pedo par apna hak nahi bana skta. Pedo par sirf mera haq mai. Inke suraksha karne ka dwaitta sirf mera hai. Aj chali hun mai shuru karne apni intekaam ki kahan. (I'm the queen of trees, and my story won't end so easily. General, go announce across the kingdom that there is only one queen—one empress—of the trees. Because no one else can claim authority over them. The trees belong to me alone. The responsibility of protecting them lies solely with me. Today, I set out to begin the story of my revenge." The internet had lots to say about the video. One user called the woman a 'Branch manager." 'Agle Bahubali mei tumhe hi cast krenge (You will be cast in the next Bahubali movie)," wrote another. 'Pedo ki rani, neeche giri toh khatam kahani (Queen of trees, if you fall your story will end)" joked one person. A social media user questioned, 'Kaha se aate hai ye log?" An individual pointed out that the woman was trying to send the message 'to protect trees and forest around us". 'All jokes apart, this seems to be a very risky place to sit like shaking the entire tree for the effect. Also, even if this is just an illusion and the tree is very close to the ground, a fall from it can still lead to injuries. Funny video though," commented a concerned person. So far, the video has received over 14.2 million views. Location : Delhi, India, India First Published: July 22, 2025, 13:44 IST News viral 'Kaha Se Aate Hai Ye Log?'

Why did Anushka Shetty and Tamannaah Bhatia avoid 'Baahubali' celebration? Fans speculate rift with Prabhas or… In the ever-evolving world of showbiz, many films come and go, but there are a few rare gems that redefine cinema and leave a legacy that goes beyond borders. One such similar tale is of a film that not only brought pan-India recognition but also gave it a global identity. This film was released 10 years ago, and it still resonates with the audience today. Baahubali The film that we are talking about is none other than Baahubali. This film was directed by visionary filmmaker S.S. Rajamouli and featured many stars. It starred impeccable performers like Prabhas, Rana Daggubati, Ramya Krishnan, Anushka Shetty, and Tamannaah Bhatia. Recently, on 10th July, the film completed 10 glorious years, and to celebrate this landmark, a celebration was organised with the film's cast and crew members. However, the union saw the absence of Anushka Shetty and Tamannaah Bhatia, leaving fans curious and disappointed. Why did Anushka Shetty and Tamannaah Bhatia not join the union? Stars like Prabhas, Rana Daggubati, Ramya Krishnan, and Sathyaraj attended the celebration. But as per reports, Anushka had accepted and even wanted to join; however, when the union took place, she was nowhere to be seen. As per sources, Anushka couldn't make it to the event due to some personal constraints. While other insiders revealed that she is keeping a bay from public appearances after undergoing a significant physical transformation for her upcoming film Ghaati. As per reports, she is keeping a low profile to maintain a surprise element for her new look. It's also being said that she had assured Ghaati's team that she would keep her promotional commitments limited. Speaking of Tamannah Bhatia, who played the role of Avanthika in the film, was also missing from the celebration. But unlike Anushka, no clear reason for Tamannah's absence has been specified. Fans who were eagerly waiting to witness the union of the entire Bahubali cast felt disappointed and urged them to specify the reason for their absence. Many even tagged the actresses in tweets, urging them to clarify or at least acknowledge the missed reunion.

More bad news for Baahubali team as this star faces ED questioning due to...
A towering figure from one of India's grandest cinematic universes now finds himself under a storm of legal scrutiny. Once hailed for his powerful screen presence in a mythological epic that redefined Indian cinema, the actor's name has surfaced in a high-profile investigation. The Enforcement Directorate has stepped in, probing links tied to promotions beyond the silver screen, ones that allegedly crossed into murky digital territory. The shadows of fame can sometimes hide tricky choices and for this 'Bahubali' star, a different battle has been set up by fate as he mourns the loss of someone very close to him and others associated with SS Rajamouli's monstrous period thriller. Which Bahubali Actor Has Been Framed By The ED? Here we are talking about actor Rana Daggubati, who has recently come under scrutiny as the Enforcement Directorate (ED) investigates a widespread betting application scam involving several celebrities. The ED's case, based on a First Information Report (FIR) filed by the Cyberabad police, names 29 individuals, including prominent actors like Vijay Deverakonda, Prakash Raj, Lakshmi Manchu, Nidhi Agerwal, Ananya Nagalla, and television anchor Srimukhi. These celebrities are accused of promoting illegal betting platforms through online advertisements, potentially encouraging users to engage in unlawful gambling activities. What Clarification Has Been Given By Rana Daggubati? Rana Daggubati, specifically, is alleged to have endorsed the betting platform Junglee Rummy. In response to the allegations, Daggubati clarified that his association with the platform was limited to a skill-based gaming application and that his contract ended in 2017. He emphasized that his endorsements were confined to legally permitted regions and that his legal team ensured compliance with the prevailing laws. As the ED's investigation into the betting app scam continues, the industry grapples with both legal challenges and the loss of one of its revered figures. The Recent Passing Of MM Keeravani's Father In a separate and somber development, the Telugu film industry mourns the loss of veteran lyricist and writer Siva Shakthi Datta, father of Oscar-winning composer MM Keeravani. Datta passed away on July 7, 2025, at the age of 92, due to age-related health issues. Known for his profound contributions to Telugu cinema, Datta penned lyrics for iconic films such as 'Bahubali,' 'RRR,' and 'Magadheera.' His work is celebrated for its classical and mythological depth, leaving an indelible mark on the industry. The Telugu film fraternity, including luminaries like Chiranjeevi, Allu Arjun and Mahesh Babu, paid their respects to the late lyricist, acknowledging his immense contribution to Indian cinema.
