Throwback video: Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma's epic 2017 wedding reception dance-off
In December 2017, Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma pulled off the most talked-about celebrity wedding of the decade. After their small ceremony in Tuscany, they came home and threw two blowout receptions: one in Delhi, other in Mumbai. From high-energy dancing to surprise performances and a guest list full of stars, these parties were anything but ordinary. Years later, fans still can't get enough of the photos, the outfits, and the over-the-top fun. Bhangra, Gurdas Maan, and the bride with a money note The Delhi reception had all the makings of a blockbuster Punjabi party. Held just days after their return from Italy, the event featured a live performance by none other than Gurdas Maan. But here's the twist: Maan didn't even know he was performing for Virat and Anushka. In an episode of The Bombay Journey with Mashable India, Maan revealed that the cricketer had planned it as a surprise. 'Virat had called everyone, but even though he loves me, he hasn't called me,' Maan recalled in Hindi. He stated that 'the organisers were specifically told not to tell Gurdas Maan;' he was only told he had an event in Delhi. At the reception, once he realized where he was, he jumped into the set — and Virat even whispered Punjabi lyrics into Anushka's ear as he sang. Meanwhile, the dance floor was in chaos in the best way. Anushka was also seen letting loose on the dance floor. Virat wasn't far behind. He pulled his mother, Saroj Kohli, into a spontaneous Bhangra session that had guests cheering and phones filming. That clip? Viral within hours. Who attended the Mumbai bash? From Ranbir and Rahman to Big B If Delhi was for family, Mumbai was made for the cameras. As per the Republic, the reception was hosted at the St. Regis Hotel on December 26, and had every A-lister imaginable. Photos show the newlyweds posing with the Bachchans, Ranbir Kapoor, Katrina Kaif, AR Rahman, and the late Sridevi. Anushka wore a golden Sabyasachi lehenga, finished with traditional red bangles. Virat looked sharp in Raghavendra Rathore. The reception's ambiance was almost like a pure red carpet event. According to the mentioned publication, Amitabh Bachchan even bowed to Anushka in a gesture of congratulations in a photo that still does the rounds online. Today, the couple has two kids, a global brand presence, and a fan base that grows by the minute. But for many, nothing tops the joy, chaos, and star power of those unforgettable December 2017 receptions.

Apoorva Mukhija was forced to shift apartment after India's Got Latent controversy: Kyunki mere ghar par police aayi thi
YouTuber-turned-actor Apoorva Mukhija, aka The Rebel Kid, has revealed that she was asked to vacate her house in Mumbai after the India's Got Latent controversy. She said that building residents complained to the management after police visited her to summon her. Also read: 'I felt so scared': Apoorva Mukhija says a stranger tracked her address, sent her abusive messages and rape threats Apoorva made the confession during a chat in the new episode of The Bombay Journey, which is posted on YouTube. During the car ride, the host asked her if the controversy had forced her to relocate within Mumbai. To this, Apoorva said in Hindi, 'Arrey yaar, because the cops came to my house to put up a notice and to summon me, the building management raised a complaint that 'cops are coming to this building, it's wrong, that's why we don't allow bachelors, that's why we don't rent out to single women''. 'So somehow, I was single-handedly responsible for evacuating feminism out of that building. Kyunki mere ghar par police aayi thi (because police came to my place). So, the owner told me to leave. I stayed in that house for one year only'. Further in the video, she shared that she was able to retrieve her security deposit after vacating her previous place. Back in April, she had hinted at vacating her Mumbai apartment by posting a short video to her Instagram Stories that suggests she has moved out. The video showed her switching off the lights of a now-empty living room. She simply captioned it, 'End of an era." Apoorva was one of the comics who featured in the controversial episode of India's Got Latent in January this year. She was part of the panel where YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia made his controversial comments about parents and sex. While he was severely criticised, a clip of Apoorva also attracted negative reactions from social media users. Comedian Samay Raina, the creator of the popular YouTube show, later deleted all the episodes of the show. Samay, Ranveer, Apoorva and others related to the show faced multiple FIRs for their comments on the show. After the stir, Apoorva went off social media. However, she is back on the medium and regular in posting content now. She is also revving her career after the setback. Apoorva is currently being seen as a participant in the Indian adaptation of the reality television series The Traitors, hosted by Karan Johar.

‘Jaldi Chadh Gayi Mujhe': Aamir Khan Reveals Why He Got Blackout Drunk On His 60th Birthday
New Delhi: Bollywood megastar Aamir Khan recently revealed that he experienced a complete blackout after getting drunk at his 60th birthday bash, which he celebrated on March 14. In the latest episode of The Bombay Journey for Mashable India, Aamir shared that the party was organized by his daughter Ira Khan and ex-wife Reena Dutta, who invited all his loved ones and well-wishers. Although Aamir has almost completely quit drinking, he gave in to his friends' insistence and had a few drinks that evening which hit him unexpectedly hard. He said,'Yaar, bohot interesting hua. Ira, Reena, everyone organised a birthday party for me on my 60th. They invited all my loved ones. It was a memorable day, like all the memories will stay with me. I don't drink much these days, I've cut down alcohol consumption to almost zero. But that day, because it was my 60th birthday, everybody insisted that I have a drink. Toh maine kaha theek hai. Aur kyunki mujhe aadat nahi hai, bohot jaldi chadh gayi mujhe. (So I said okay. And since I'm not used to it, it hit me really fast). We started at around 7 pm, and by 9 pm, I knew that I was flying.' Although it was a special day, Aamir confessed that he has no memory of most of it due to a "clean blackout." He mentioned that there are photos and videos from the evening where people said nice things about him, but he doesn't remember any of it. Aamir Khan on Why He Quit Drinking Earlier, Aamir had revealed that he gave up alcohol because he lacked control while drinking. However, he admitted that he still smokes a pipe. In a candid conversation with actor Nana Patekar, Aamir opened up about his biggest personal struggle — his lack of discipline. While he maintains strong discipline in his professional life, especially with films, he described himself as an "extremist" in other areas. 'I smoke a pipe. Now I have quit drinking, but at one point, I used to drink. And when I used to drink, I would drink all night,' he said. On the Work Front, Aamir Khan is gearing up for the release of his much-anticipated film Sitaare Zameen Par, directed by R.S. Prasanna. The film is a remake of the Spanish movie Campeones and is slated to hit theatres on June 20.

Actor breaks silence on buzz around retirement) During the interaction, Aamir said in Hindi, "My family organised a party for me on my 60th birthday. It was one of those occasions where you have a memorable day with your friends and family. But what happened was… now I don't drink much nowadays, it is almost negligible. But that day, everyone insisted that I have a drink with them because it was a special occasion and I gave in. With me, the point is that I'm not someone who restricts himself; I'm an extreme person. Because I haven't been drinking much, my body wasn't used to it. We started at around 7 pm, and by 9 pm, I knew that I was buzzing.' He went on to add, 'This has happened to me a few times. When I woke up the next morning, I had no memory of the previous evening. There were videos and photos, and they told me that everyone said nice things about me, but I didn't remember anything. It was a blackout. I was conducting myself normally with everyone during the party, but the next day, when I woke up, I had zero memories of my 60th birthday celebration. There were pictures and videos from the day, but I had no memory at all, of how I reacted to the people when they were giving speeches. It was a clean blackout.' Aamir is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film Sitaare Zameen Par. Directed by R.S. Prasanna, the film is a remake of the Spanish movie Campeones. It is set to release in theatres on June 20.
