Bhagwant Mann has claimed a major success in its anti-smuggling operations after Counter Intelligence units in Amritsar dismantled an alleged drug and illegal arms trafficking network operating in the state.

According to Director General of Police Punjab Gaurav Yadav, two accused individuals were arrested during the operation. Police also recovered 5.5 kilograms of heroin, four pistols, and 10 live rounds of ammunition.

Bhagwant Mann: Cross-Border Links Suspected

Preliminary investigations suggest that the arrested individuals were allegedly in contact with a cross-border smuggler and had received consignments of arms and ammunition intended for further distribution within Punjab.

Officials stated that the case points toward the continued use of cross-border smuggling channels for trafficking narcotics and illegal weapons into the state.

Investigation Underway

A case has been registered at the State Special Operations Cell (SSOC) police station in Amritsar. Authorities said further investigation is ongoing to establish both forward and backward linkages connected to the network and identify additional associates involved in the alleged smuggling operation.

Police teams are also examining the source of the recovered weapons and narcotics, along with possible supply routes and intended recipients.

Zero-Tolerance Policy Against Organized Crime

Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has repeatedly emphasized strict action against drug trafficking and organized crime in the state. Punjab Police stated that it remains committed to a zero-tolerance policy against narcotics, illegal arms smuggling, and criminal networks.

Authorities added that anti-drug and anti-smuggling operations are being intensified across Punjab to strengthen law enforcement and public safety.

Bandar Trailer: ‘I Am Innocent…’ Bobby Deol Keeps Repeating, Anurag Kashyap Explores Dark Side Of False Allegations Against Men – WATCH

Bandar Trailer Bobby Deol and Anurag Kashyap

The much-talked-about Bandar trailer is finally out, and it has already sparked intense discussion online. Directed by Anurag Kashyap, the film stars Bobby Deol in one of his darkest and most emotionally intense roles yet. The trailer dives into themes of false allegations, public judgment, dating app culture and the emotional collapse of a man trapped in a legal nightmare.

Released on Thursday (May 21), Bandar trailer presents Bobby Deol as Samar Mehra, a former television star whose life spirals out of control after he meets a woman through a dating app. As the accusations against him grow more serious, Samar repeatedly insists – “I am innocent” while struggling to prove his side of the story.

Bobby Deol Plays A Troubled TV Star In Bandar Trailer

The trailer introduces Samar Mehra as a flawed and complicated character. He openly admits that he sometimes feels scared of himself. At one point, he says he sees himself as a good man, while at other times he questions whether he is actually terrible.

Things take a dramatic turn after Samar meets a woman played by Sapna Pabbi. Soon, he finds himself accused of rape, blackmail and extortion. While Samar claims he has been falsely accused, the police begin investigating his personal chats and behaviour.

One tense scene in the Bandar trailer shows officers confronting him over alleged private messages where he asked younger women for intimate photos. Samar calls the woman a “stalker,” but the trailer hints that the legal system may already have turned against him.

A striking line shown in the trailer reads, “Justice swipes left,” hinting at the film’s central conflict and emotional tone.

With Bandar, Anurag Kashyap appears to explore the darker side of public accusations and media trials. The film arrives just months after his sister Anubhuti Kashyap directed Accused, another project linked to #MeToo themes.

Bandar trailer avoids loud courtroom drama and instead focuses on psychological tension, emotional breakdown and social judgment. Sanya Malhotra plays Samar’s lawyer, while Saba Azad appears as one of his love interests. The film also claims to be inspired by TRUE events.

Bobby Deol Opens Up About Working With Anurag Kashyap

The actor had earlier spoken about his experience working on the film and admitted that the project pushed him completely out of his comfort zone.

In an interview with SCREEN, Bobby said, “I knew I would learn so much from him as an actor. I was out of my comfort zone. There was no workshop. He did not even give a script.”

The actor also revealed that after the success of Animal, he tried to understand what connected audiences so strongly with his performance.

He said, “I wondered what I did differently in Animal that people look at me differently. I rewatched Animal. Still, I did not find the answer. I hardly slept for an hour and the next day shot for 12 hours. However, once I was on the set everything flowed smoothly.

Written by Sudip Sharma and Abhishek Banerjee, Bandar has also been co-directed by Sakshi Mehta Lau alongside Anurag Kashyap. Before its theatrical release, the film was screened at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival in the Special Presentations section, where it generated strong curiosity among viewers.

Bandar is now set to release in theatres on June 5.

Music composer Pritam is once again facing plagiarism allegations after the release of Mashooqa, one of the latest songs from Cocktail 2. The track, featuring Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon, quickly grabbed attention online for its catchy beats and glamorous visuals. However, soon after the song dropped, social media users began claiming that its tune sounded similar to the 1993 Italian track Se So Arrubate A Nonna.

As the debate intensified online, Pritam reacted strongly to the accusations and shared a sarcastic response to trolls questioning his originality. The composer addressed the controversy through his Instagram story and appeared unfazed by the comparisons.

Pritam Reacts To Plagiarism Allegations

Responding to the criticism, Pritam wrote on Instagram, “Every single of my song release comes with set of self-appointed music detectives, who have created a new genre called ‘imaginary similarities’.”

The composer further added, “Same people, same ‘inspired by’ thesis. Boss, at this point you are my unpaid PR team. I just want to say guys, NOT NICE.”

His response quickly went viral across social media platforms, with fans divided over the controversy. While many users defended the composer and praised Mashooqa as a party anthem, others continued pointing out similarities between the song and the Italian track.

The song Mashooqa was officially released online on Tuesday after the makers organised a special music launch event for Cocktail 2. Along with Mashooqa, another track titled Tujhko was also unveiled during the event.

The song especially gained attention for Kriti Sanon’s glamorous avatar and her chemistry with Shahid Kapoor. Fans flooded social media with clips from the track, calling it visually vibrant and highly energetic.

Interestingly, actress Rashmika Mandanna had also shared Tujhko on her social media account before later deleting the post, which sparked fresh speculation online.

Cocktail 2 Trailer To Release On THIS Date

The makers have now confirmed that the trailer of Cocktail 2 will release on May 29, 2026. The announcement was revealed at the end of the song Tujhko.

Directed by Homi Adajania, Cocktail 2 stars Shahid Kapoor, Kriti Sanon and Rashmika Mandanna in lead roles. The film serves as a spiritual sequel to the 2012 hit Cocktail, which starred Saif Ali Khan, Deepika Padukone and Diana Penty. The upcoming film is scheduled for a worldwide theatrical release on June 19, 2026.

Apart from the music controversy, Cocktail 2 has already been surrounded by several online rumours and leaks. Reports circulating on social media claim the film explores a modern love triangle with an emotional LGBTQ+ angle involving Kriti Sanon and Rashmika Mandanna’s characters.

At the same time, industry gossip about alleged tensions among the lead cast has also gone viral online. Several reports claimed Shahid Kapoor was unhappy about Kriti reportedly having the strongest character arc in the film.

There have also been rumours about huge pay differences between the actors, although none of the claims have been officially confirmed by the makers.

US Iran Peace Talk: The US-Iran peace talks are currently at a critical stage as Donald Trump balances strong military warnings with unexpected diplomatic signals. While tensions over nuclear issues and regional security remain high, ongoing negotiations and international mediation efforts are keeping hopes of a peaceful resolution alive.

Rising Tensions Between US And Iran

Relations between the United States and Iran have remained strained for years due to nuclear concerns, economic sanctions, and regional conflicts. Recent developments have further increased uncertainty, with both sides continuing to exchange strong statements.

Strong Warning Issued by Trump for Iran

Hope of Diplomatic Negotiations Raised by Surprising Signals

While issuing threats to Iran, President Trump also gave indications of diplomacy as a means of dealing with the conflict. Recent reports show that both parties have been negotiating in secret to ease the tension temporarily.

Hormuz Strait is still a Major Point of conflict

Various Countries Working to Solve the Dispute

According to some sources, several countries like Qatar, Turkey, and Pakistan have taken up the mantle of helping to resolve conflicts between Iran and the United States through diplomacy.

What Happens Next?

‘Young Generation Bobby Deol Ko Bhool Gayi Thi…’ Bandar Actor REVEALS Why Salman Khan Became His Last Hope For Comeback

Bobby Deol on Salman Khan and his comeback
Photo Credit: X

Bobby Deol has opened up about one of the toughest phases of his career and how Salman Khan played a major role in helping him make a comeback. The actor, who was once considered one of Bollywood’s biggest rising stars in the 90s, admitted that there was a time when the younger generation had almost forgotten him.

Known for films like Barsaat and Soldier, Bobby enjoyed massive popularity early in his career. However, after a string of unsuccessful films, the actor slowly disappeared from mainstream conversations. In a recent interaction with Shekhar Suman, Bobby recalled how taking up Race 3 opposite Salman Khan became a turning point in his struggling career.

Bobby Deol Reveals Why He Said Yes To Race 3

Speaking on Shekhar Tonite, Bobby Deol shared how Salman Khan personally reached out to him for Race 3. Recalling the conversation, Bobby said, “Salman was so sweet. Kuch saalo baad usne mujhe phone kiya aur kaha, ‘Shirt utarega maamu’ (Will you take off your shirt). I said, ‘Main kuch bhi karunga’ (I will do anything). Then he said come on, listen to the story and that is how I got Race 3.”

Released in 2018, Race 3 featured Salman Khan in the lead role and marked a major cast change for the franchise after Saif Ali Khan’s exit. The film also starred Anil Kapoor, Jacqueline Fernandez, Daisy Shah and Saqib Saleem.

While the film received mixed reviews from critics, it performed strongly at the box office and earned more than Rs 300 crore worldwide.

‘Young Generation Bobby Deol Ko Bhool Gayi Thi’

During the conversation, Bobby honestly admitted that he felt people had stopped recognising him, especially younger audiences.

Talking about his decision to join Race 3, he said, “Millions of people are going to go watch a Salman Khan film. Jo young generation thi woh Bobby Deol ko bhool gayi thi. So I felt ki main iss film me aaunga toh log pehchanenge ki koi Bobby Deol bhi hai.”

Aashram And Animal Changed His Career

After Race 3, Bobby Deol received a major boost with Prakash Jha’s hit web series Aashram in 2020. His performance in the series introduced him to a younger digital audience and helped him rebuild his image as a strong performer.

However, the biggest turning point came with Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s Animal. Despite having limited screen time, Bobby’s silent yet intense antagonist role became one of the most talked-about performances in the film.

Many viewers felt the actor managed to leave a lasting impact even alongside Ranbir Kapoor.

Bobby Deol: Upcoming Projects

Following the success of Animal, Bobby Deol has become one of the busiest actors once again. He was recently seen in the web series The Ba**ds of Bollywood* and the film Hari Hara Veera Mallu.

The actor will next be seen in Anurag Kashyap’s Bandar, which has already generated strong curiosity among fans.

Apart from that, Bobby is also part of Jana Nayagan, reportedly the final film of Thalapathy Vijay. However, the film has been stuck with the CBFC for several months.

Bandra-Demolition-Drive

Bandra demolition drive took a dangerous turn on day two as Garib Nagar exploded in violence, with residents and officials clashing amid heightened tension. What began as an enforcement exercise soon escalated into chaos, with reports of stone-pelting, shouting matches and a heavy police response.

Bulldozers and baton charges

Bandra Demolition Drive: Bulldozers continued to press ahead with the drive while baton charges were used to control the crowd, intensifying anger on the ground. The sight of demolition machinery moving through a densely packed neighbourhood added to panic, especially as families rushed to protect belongings and secure their homes.

Residents push back

Locals alleged that the action was carried out without adequate notice and demanded more time and clarity from the authorities. Many residents said the operation had left them fearful and uncertain about their immediate future, particularly those whose homes or shops were directly affected.

Heavy security presence

Bandra Demolition Drive: Police personnel were deployed in large numbers as officials tried to prevent the situation from spiraling further. Despite the security cordon, tensions remained high through the day, with the area witnessing repeated confrontations and a tense standoff between residents and enforcement teams.

Latest situation

The latest update from the ground suggests the situation remains volatile, with authorities monitoring the area closely. Relief and rehabilitation questions are now coming into focus as residents seek answers on compensation, resettlement and the next steps in the demolition process.

Delhi Strike Rocks Capital! How a 3‑Day Transporters’ Shutdown Is Affecting Markets, Warehouses and Retail, Here’s What Daily Commuters Need to Know

By
Purnima Jain
-
Delhi-Strike

A sudden three-day shutdown called by major transporters has snarled movement across the National Capital Region, hitting wholesale markets, warehouses and retail outlets and leaving daily commuters scrambling for alternatives. The action, prompted by demands over rising diesel costs and pending toll disputes, began early Wednesday and shows no signs of an immediate resolution.

Impact on wholesale markets


Wholesale markets for vegetables, fruits and construction materials reported sharply reduced arrivals as trucks queued at city limits or returned to origin points. Several market yards in Azadpur and Ghazipur saw 40–60% fewer supplies, forcing traders to ration stock and prioritise high-margin goods. Smaller retailers and kirana shops have started to limit sales of perishable items, while those dependent on daily restocks are running low on essentials.

Warehouse and logistics bottlenecks


Warehouses in and around Delhi face operational delays. Loading and unloading schedules are disrupted, contract labourers are underutilised, and companies with just-in-time inventory models are flagging potential stockouts. E-commerce firms and cold-chain operators say fulfilment times will lengthen and delivery windows will expand, with express shipments facing surcharges.

Retail prices and consumer impact


Retail consumers can expect short-term price volatility for perishables and packaged essentials. Analysts warn that if the shutdown extends beyond three days, price spikes could become more widespread, especially for vegetables and construction materials. Markets for durable goods remain relatively stable but may see delays in restocking.

Commuter advice and transport alternatives


Daily commuters are feeling the immediate pinch. With many goods vehicles off the road, shared transport and mini-buses have been repurposed for passenger runs in some areas, creating overcrowding. Metro services are running at full capacity, but last-mile connectivity is strained. Commuters should allow extra travel time, seek remote-work options where possible, and check real-time transit apps before leaving home.

Authorities’ response and outlook


Authorities have set up negotiation channels and contingency logistics hubs; however, resolution depends on both government mediation and transporters’ willingness to return. For now, Delhi braces for three disruptive days that will test supply chains and urban mobility.

Drishyam 3 Review: ‘Flat Narration, Very Basic Writing…’ Film Critic Calls Mohanlal-Jeethu Joseph’s Movie Unimpressive

Drishyam 3 Review Mohanlal

Drishyam 3 Review: The much-awaited Drishyam 3 finally hit theatres on May 21, 2026, bringing back Mohanlal’s iconic Georgekutty for one last chapter. The film arrived with massive expectations after the huge success of the first two instalments, especially Drishyam 2, which became a major OTT phenomenon across India. However, while fans were eager to witness the final twist in the franchise, early reactions online have turned sharply divided.

The biggest shock came after a popular film critic shared a disappointing verdict on social media. The review quickly went viral, with many viewers debating whether Drishyam 3 truly lived up to the legacy built by the earlier films directed by Jeethu Joseph.

Drishyam 3 Review By Critic Leaves Fans Divided

Film critic Venky Reviews shared his thoughts on X shortly after watching the film and did not hold back in his criticism.

He wrote, “#Drishyam3 A below par third instalment from the franchise with a flat narration and very basic writing!

The director succeeds in building the mood of the film and creating tension in places, but this time the overall writing is unimpressive. Climax sequence is a bit better, but the rest feels too basic and way too redundant.

The slow narration is expected, but when the twists themselves don’t land impactfully, it becomes hard to make this one work. Ends up disappointing and nowhere near the range of the first two parts!

Rating: 2.25/5”

Check it out below

Audience reactions after the first shows also appeared mixed. While some viewers praised the emotional moments and climax portions, others felt the story lacked the brilliance and unpredictability of the earlier films.

One viewer wrote, “Decent climax, but overall nowhere close to the brilliance of the earlier parts. Truly the weakest installment of the franchise so far.”

Another simply commented, “Forced part 3”.

Some fans also felt the film relied too heavily on nostalgia and slow-paced storytelling without delivering enough shocking twists.

Despite the criticism, several viewers are still appreciating Mohanlal’s performance as Georgekutty, a role that has become one of the most celebrated characters in Indian cinema.

About The Film

Directed by Jeethu Joseph, Drishyam 3 serves as the final chapter in the psychological crime thriller franchise. The film follows Georgekutty and his family as they struggle under the pressure of secrets that continue haunting them years later.

This time, the story focuses more on emotional cracks within the family while a fresh police investigation threatens to expose the truth once again.

The film brings back the original cast, including Mohanlal, Meena, Ansiba Hassan and Esther Anil. Actors Siddique, Asha Sharath and Murali Gopy also return, while Veena Nandakumar joins the franchise in a key role.

Massive Budget And High Expectations

Made on a reported budget of Rs 100 crore, Drishyam 3 is the most expensive film in the franchise. The makers reportedly spent years planning the story to maintain secrecy around the climax.

Jeethu Joseph had earlier revealed that the overall storyline was developed over nearly a decade. Despite the huge anticipation and strong opening buzz, the film’s early reviews suggest that not everyone is satisfied with the final outcome.
