Scam in SGPC, it sold land worth Rs 50 lakh for Rs 9 lakh: Former Akal Takht jathedar Bhai Ranjit Singh
1 2 Amritsar: Former Akal Takht jathedar and Panthic Akali Lehar founder Bhai Ranjit Singh has accused the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) of allegedly usurping gurdwara property worth crores of rupees in Tarn Taran, a charge the SGPC has denied. Talking to mediapersons on Wednesday, Ranjit Singh alleged that the SGPC sold the property at throwaway prices to those closely associated with its president. "The SGPC is not the property owner but only its custodian," he said. He alleged that the land with a market value of Rs 50 lakh was being sold for just Rs 9 lakh, and the Rs 60 lakh property was being sold for Rs 16 lakh. On the other hand, SGPC secretary Partap Singh and assistant secretary Gurnam Singh, in a joint statement, claimed that if Ranjit Singh believes the property was worth Rs 60 lakh, he himself should deposit Rs 55 lakh in the gurdwara account, and the SGPC will cancel the previous bid and transfer the property to him. They further said that the SGPC sold the land through an open bidding process after publicly advertising it. Although the land is close to the city, according to them, its market value was lower due to narrow lanes and limited accessibility.

Salman Khan fights in an elevator in an action-packed scene, takes a unique route to announce ‘Sikandar' release on OTT
'Sikander' Bollywood's most beloved action hero, Salman Khan , recently made a grand statement not through a press conference or a poster drop but with fists flying and his signature charm intact.

In a freshly released promo video, Salman is seen in an elevator with his assistant. He casually hums a tune preparing for what appears to be a major announcement. As the assistant reminds him about the big reveal, Salman nonchalantly asks for his dialogues and the moment is lighthearted but it doesn't stay that way for long. The elevator ride is interrupted by a gang of rowdy goons. In true 'Bhai' fashion, Salman springs into action throwing punches and protecting his assistant, all while keeping his effortless style intact. Meanwhile outside the lift his team wonders what's taking him so long. 'Bhai kyu nahi aaye?' asks one. Another coolly replies, 'Bhai dilo mein aate hain.' And just like that Salman emerges and drops the line fans were waiting for: 'Sikandar is now on Netflix.' Box office stumble, streaming redemption? Originally hitting theatres on March 30, 'Sikandar' came with massive expectations. Directed by AR Murugadoss and co-starring Rashmika Mandanna, the film promised to be a commercial powerhouse.

'Bhai did more acting here than actual film': Salman Khan packs a punch in Sikandar Netflix release announcement
Salman Khan is all set to bring Sikandar to Netflix. The actor and the streamer launched a promotional video to tease the release of the movie on OTT. What's surprising though, is that fans think he has performed better in this than the actual movie. The video shows Salman in a lift with an assistant director from Netflix when a few goons come barging in. Salman takes charge and lets the goons know why he is the last person they should mess with. The video ends with Salman letting fans know when and where to watch his movie on Netflix. His fans were rather impressed by the action-packed adventure. 'Salman's energy here gives old Salman vibes. Good to see him back,' wrote a fan. Another said, 'This announcement is better than whole movie.' This was also said about Salman's performance. 'Did more acting in this ad for netflix than the whole film. Just Salman things,' wrote a person on Reddit. Another wrote on YouTube, 'Salman's acting in This announcement better than whole film..' 'That is solely because… Bhai aur Bhai ka kaam karne ka andaaz, dil mein aata hai, samajh mein nahi (Bhai and his style can only be understood by the heart, not by logic).' The movie is out now on Netflix. The streamer wrote on YouTube. 'Aap Sikandar ko dhundh rahe hain, aur Sikandar aapke ghar mein intezaar kar raha hai. Watch Sikandar, starring Salman Khan and Rashmika Mandanna, out now on Netflix!' HT review of Sikandar read, 'Salman's dialogues in many of his previous films, apart from his hooksteps, are iconic. Here, in Sikandar, neither of them stands out. The music is weak, and none of the songs leave a mark. Santhosh Narayanan's background score works in a couple of places, all of them action sequences.'
