The recent reports of a shooting incident near Punjabi singer and rapper AP Dhillon’s house in Vancouver, Canada, have raised significant concern. According to sources, gunfire was allegedly heard near his residence on Victoria Island, although there has been no official confirmation from law enforcement yet. A video circulating online, which remains unverified, shows a man firing shots outside a house at night, adding to the uncertainty surrounding the incident’s location.

Old Money Out Now: Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt in AP Dhillon’s action packed song

Authorities in Canada are currently investigating the claims and the circumstances around the shooting, but...

AP Dhillon, the Indo-Canadian Punjabi artist, recently expressed his deep sorrow and frustration over the brutal rape and murder of a 31-year-old female doctor in Kolkata. Through an emotional Instagram story, Dhillon shared his thoughts in the only way he knows how through music. He posted a clip featuring a tribute song, accompanied by heartbroken emojis, highlighting the grave injustice done to the victim.

In his song, Dhillon called for justice and lamented how society continues to fail women despite their contributions and strength. His lyrics poignantly reflect the tragedy of the situation: “She has saved many lives and souls. God, how could her fate end so tragically? She was not safe even in a place where everyone knew her. Today, we all ask you, is it a curse to be born a girl in this world?”

Dhillon further criticized the lack of societal progress, despite the efforts of women who have “transformed the world.

The upcoming film starring actor Ntr Jr and directed by Prashanth Neel, currently identified as “Ntrneel,” has secured a global release date of Jan. 9, 2026. This project marks the first collaboration between the two.

On Friday, the production team held a traditional prayer ceremony, attended by Ntr Jr, Neel, their families, and representatives from the producing entities Ntr Arts and Mythri Movie Makers, to kick off production.

The filmmakers posted on X: “This time, the earth will tremble under his reign! #Ntrneel will step onto the soil on January 9th, 2026.”

Neel previously directed blockbuster films “K.G.F: Chapter 1” (2018) and “K.G.F: Chapter 2” (2022), headlined by Yash, and “Salaar,” starring Prabhas and Prithviraj Sukumaran.

AP Dhillon’s latest project, Old Money, has taken the internet by storm, not just as a music video, but as a short action film featuring Bollywood heavyweights Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt. The video combines the worlds of music and cinema, bringing together AP Dhillon’s musical talent with the iconic presence of these action stars.

The video starts with an intense action sequence where AP Dhillon is outnumbered by goons, only for Salman Khan to make a grand, cinematic entrance. Salman, true to his larger-than-life image, arrives with a goon slung over his shoulder and effortlessly takes down each adversary in his path. The scene is filled with Salman’s trademark swag, and AP Dhillon, despite being injured, manages a maniacal laugh as he watches Salman fight off their enemies.

As the tension builds, AP escapes and confronts the antagonist, Shinda Kahlon. Just as AP is about to exact his revenge,...

The recent bail plea by Vicky Kumar Gupta, one of the accused in the firing incident at actor Salman Khan’s apartment in Bandra, sheds light on the motivations and circumstances surrounding the case. Gupta claimed the attack was not intended to harm Khan but to threaten him over the blackbuck killing incident, significant to the Bishnoi community. The incident was reportedly orchestrated by the Lawrence Bishnoi gang and executed by Gupta and Sagar Kumar Pal, with guidance from Anmol Bishnoi in Canada.

Gupta’s plea portrays him as a victim of circumstance, asserting his role was minor and driven by economic desperation. He explained his involvement came after losing his job during the Covid-19 pandemic and being misled about the mission’s nature. The special McOca court has directed the Mumbai police to respond to the bail application, with a hearing set for August 13. The chargesheet names nine individuals involved,...

AP Dhillon has teased his next single, “Old Money,” with a short teaser featuring Bollywood heavyweights Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt.

In a brief exchange, Salman warns AP to ensure he doesn’t need to step in like the last time.

Salman Khan shared the teaser and captioned, “Old Money out on August 9th @apdhillon”

Earlier, AP Dhillon had shared a motion art video hinting at a collaboration with Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt, captioned, “I know you didn’t see this one coming…” The video ends with the phrases “did you miss me” and “this August,” and depicts a dramatic scene with AP Dhillon holding a gun, Salman Khan with an envelope,...

In the world of The Simpsons, cartoonish injuries can be sustained and healed in the course of a single episode. But despite the elastic rules of the Fox animated series, death remains a very real concern. Characters have confronted the specter of death in their own lives, with characters like Moe and Homer getting entire episodes focused around darker thoughts. And while much of the established cast has bounced back from plenty of punishment, there have been a handful who didn't.

Over the course of 34 seasons and counting, there have been some significant demises that have all affected the show in some capacity. Whenever the show kills a named character, it often has a great emotional impact equal to any live-action TV death. Here are all the important characters on The Simpsons who've died over the course of the show -- and which ones ended up quietly coming back after they passed.

Home video in Germany is handled by Universum Film.

Yesterday I finished writing my very positive review of David Schalko's Austrian television series Altes Geld. That series is about a shady billionaire who needs a new liver, and who stirs up a viper's nest when he tells his family that the one who provides such an organ to him will become his sole heir. One of the series' unequivocal strong points is that the billionaire is played by German actor Udo Kier, and in my review I said that I had never seen him being better. But is that a fair statement though? Martin Kudlac had a fantastic interview with Udo Kier earlier this year, and when you read that conversation you get an idea of just how many films Udo Kier has been...

This year, the International Film Festival Rotterdam had a section dedicated to television series. In it, you could see episode-collections shown as films, and films that are soon to become adapted as television series. But one of the most spectacular entries was a full-length screening of David Schalko's 2015 series Altes Geld (meaning Old Money), all eight episodes in one gargantuan 375-minute long chunk. I was much tempted to go see it, because the festival's synopsis was hilarious: An evil billionaire needs a liver transplant and ignites a war among his children, one of whom will be the only heir if (s)he provides him a liver. According to its author, this leads to a "Dallas for psychos", which at the very least provides some crazy...

The pursuit for a new organ turns the family upside down in a subversive version of a family soap opera. Udo Kier´s prolific career envelopes 250+ films and counting. He has collaborated with big names from history books and has a diverse portfolio starring in thrash, cult, genre and award-swooping arthouse films all over the globe.

Hitler is back - and he will be sharing the screen with The Pope, Osama Bin Laden, Joseph Stalin, Vladimir Putin and Jesus Christ, as well as various dinosaurs .

At International Film Festival Rotterdam (Iffr) this week, cult actor Udo Kier has revealed further plot details of Timo Vuorensola’s Iron Sky: The Coming Race, the sequel to Nazis on the moon saga, Iron Sky (2012).

Kier himself returns as Wolfgang Kortzfleisch (“Vomiting Meat”) and also plays Wolfgang’s brother, Hitler.

The new film shot in Antwerp.

“I have also a German Shepherd like Hitler had called Blondi,” Kier told ScreenDaily. “It was difficult to get one. I said to the director “It doesn’t matter. Get a stuffed one from London.’ We put it on a piece of wood with four wheels.”

In the film, Kier revealed, there is a scene in which the Us President (a Sarah Palin lookalike) attends a conference with Stalin, Putin, Hitler...

Dutch royalty attend opening, which kicked off with Boudewijn Koole’s new feature; Bero Beyer hails Rotterdam diversity.

The 45th International Film Festival Rotterdam (Iffr) (Jan 27 - Feb 7) opened last night with an unlikely infusion of glamour in the shape of 44-year-old Queen Maxima.

The Queen, attending Iffr for the first time, was in the festival’s main venue, the Doelen, for the screening of opening film, Beyond Sleep. The film is directed Boudewijn Koole (Kauwboy) and based on Dutch novel Nooit meer slapen by W.F. Hermans.

“International Film Festival Rotterdam is about as old as I am,” new festival director Bero Beyer commented in his opening speech. “It has been here year after year, growing in size and impact…but we should not take either the festival nor the open environment for granted.

“All over the world, filmmakers we cherish and have welcomed here in the past are prohibited to show their work, restricted in their...
