that he and his family âhave done very well out of the late singers estate reports âMirrorcoukâHe denied suing two of his daughterâs friends out of âpetty jealousyâ that they made money from selling items at auction after her death the High Court heardAs per âMirrorcoukâ Mitch Winehouse acting as the administrator of his daughterâs estate is bringing legal action against her stylist Naomi Parry and friend Catriona Gourlay for hundreds of thousands of pounds over claims they profited from selling dozens of items at auctions in the US in 2021 and 2023It is alleged the two women did not have the right to sell the items and did not inform Mr Winehouse that they were doing so Ms Parry and Ms Gourlay are defending the claim with their barristers stating that the items were either gifted by Ms Winehouse or were already owned by them Rehab singer Amy died aged 27 from alcohol poisoning in July 2011During his evidence on Tuesday the court heard he told the Sunday Times last year that he had gone to the police about the case to be told that proceedings in the High Court made it a civil caseAsked if he was trying to make Ms Parry and Ms Gourlay out to be criminals he said âIf they had stolen things they would be criminals wouldnât theyâHe accepted that he had no evidence that Ms Parry or Ms Gourlay had taken anything from a lock up of his daughterâs possessions Beth Grossman for Ms Parry asked âThese young women are not thieves and they are not dishonest Mr Winehouse They have always been honest to you They sold items that they owned that you knew they owned and that you were going to sell and you have said this to journalists out of nothing more than petty jealousy because they happened to make a bit of money at the auction and you brought these proceedings for nothing more than petty jealousy as well Do you have a response to thatâWinehouse replied âYes you are wrongâ Winehouse said he thought the money from the auction in 2021 which raised around 14 million

the caption SachetâParampara said they were compelled to speak up for their âmental peaceâ stating that Amaal Mallik had repeatedly claimed the composition resembled an older tune of hisâWarning This video could have been a 10 sec video also proving all rumours false but for our mental peace exposing some people was very important amaalmallik SHAME ON YOU AMAAL MALIKâ the caption on Instagram readâHi everyone we are Sachetan Parampara and this is regarding something which has become very serious now This is regarding Mr Amaal Mallik Actually we never thought that we would have to clarify all these things but this is something that we purely created We are talking about Bekhayali which Amaal Mallik claims that he has made some time agoâIn the video the duo asserted that Bekhayali was created entirely by them during musicsessions with the Kabir Singh team including Shahid Kapoor and director Sandeep Reddy VangaâWe have all the chats with Amal Malik we have all the chats with Kabir Singh team because the entire Kabir Singh team was there when we created this song Every melody every composition every arrangement every lyric was done when the entire team was there and it is purely a Sachet and Parampara original compositionââAnd then one more thing which he is claiming that the favourites who join with the label we were never with TSeries we were never part of TSeries before this Kabir Singh happened And I think he was part of the TSeries Yeah he has been signed with TSeries since 2015 if we are not wrongâThe duo said that since then Amaal is claiming that someone sent his song on WhatsApp and someone must have played it for us and all thatâWe are outsiders why would anyone favour us Or we have come from a small town someone will play their song for us and we will make a song like that Are you serious Amal Malik And also lets assume that if you want to say that we have stolen your song then why are you congratulating us after the release And you are the first one who is texting me and saying that waiting for your song andââI started the conversation I didnt even have your number Amal Malik You called me you texted me telling me that you are waiting for your song and then congratulating me and asking when your day after Bekhayali is releasedâThe duo showcased the texts sent by Amaaal and said that he is now âclaimingâ that âI have stolen your songââJust trying to say all these things I am so sorry that we have to fall so low And have to tell all these things like this What we are trying to actually think is Amaal what is the need for you to do all this And you are saying love it What is the need for you to do all thisââBecause if you say anything then please say that thing which you have proof of And whatever you claim in the media that is all wrong that is a lie And I feel very bad for all your fans Because you are following a person who is not telling the truth in the mediaâParampara said that Amaalâs âold songs are very goodââBut that doesnt mean that when your work doesnt turn out well you just catch people and bash them For no reason And Amaal when you dont get something dont say the grapes are sourââSo you are just saying that the industry is wrong everything is wrong We dont believe that the industry is wrong Because they have given an opportunity to outsiders like us And here we believe that your work speaks for itself In fact if you dont do your work well you wont get work It doesnt matter whether you are an outsiderââIt doesnt matter whether you are part of the music industry They say what is nepotism nonnepotism outsiders So this place is only for those who deliver good work Every day there is hustle You have to do it You have to work hard for yourself We only work in our studio We work on ourselves How can we give music to people How can we present music to people Not that we comment on someone else Take someone elses credits Or defame someone else for somethingâThe duo said that they never expected these things from AmaalâWhen you called me first You used to talk Suddenly I dont know what happenedI think you used to call us and talk to us for hours and hours Where are you guys Your voice I have to use your voiceâThe duo recalled how Amaal said that âKabir Singhâ is ânothingâ when they met in TSeries office and that âyour âBekhayaliâ was so fabââSo why are you doing well after 8 years And we will tell you We have made this song in Shahid Kapoors office In front of Shahid Kapoor sir and Sandeep Reddy Vanga sir We have made both the songs in front of them in their office We have lot of settingsâThey asked for proof from Amaal Mallik for the claims he has made and that they will bring theirsâWe request you to come up with some answers Because I need your apology Because you went on social media to defame us and we are going to court and telling you all these things I am so sorry Amal You are doing thisâThe musicians requested a public apology saying the remarks had damaged their reputationWe want an apology from you and in public because you went outside You went on your social media Asking and telling all these Also this can happen with anyoneâJust because these days accusations are like this If you accuse someone then that person will be wrong Please go to the truth And then tell someone that you are wrong or right This can happen with us or anyone And we are not those kinds of people Who keeps on cribbing all the time Keep on saying something wrong I think its betterâThe duo said âSometimes there are many films that we dont get Even after giving songs to that film We dont say that I had that film Or the director is bad Or the producer is bad Or the music industry is bad Or the music label is bad No We take it in a good spirit That maybe our work is not that good Thats why we didnt get that filmââAnd we learn from it and again work harderâThey said that their âwork is all originalââNo matter what song it is Har Har Mahadev And please dont make the mistake That you claim that our song is your song Because it will not be tolerated And we will send you a notice As soon as we get to know each other you have wrongly quoted us Or tried to copy our song Or you claim that we have copied your songâ IANS https://dailyworld.in/cinema/sachetparampara-call-out-amaal-mallik-over-bekhayali-claim-demand-public-apology-652526.html

do that But it took that many nos for me to get my first break which changed everything for me because now I was seen just as a commercial actor not as the Indian actor But I had to fight that

making and doing so much incredible work But that was really toughâShe also shared advice for aspiring actors and professionals as she said So I think you have to decide Whats the cohort you want to live with Whats the cohort you want to work with What kind of room do you want to be in What are the kind of people you want to be surrounded by And then your decisions become the basis of that The no

peoples faceElsewhere the star expressed concern about the role artificial intelligence AI could play in the future of movies and other creative fieldsDiCaprio said It could be an enhancement tool for a young filmmaker to do something weve never seen beforeI think anything that is going to be authentically thought of as art has to come from the human being Otherwise havent you heard these songs that are mashups that are just absolutely brilliant and you go Oh my God this is Michael Jackson doing The Weeknd or This is funk from the A Tribe Called Quest song Bonita Applebum done in you know a sort of Al Green soulsong voice and its brilliantAnd you go Cool But then gets its 15 minutes of fame and it just dissipates into the ether of other internet junk Theres no anchoring to it Theres no humanity to it as brilliant as it isLeonardo also doesnt believe that the next big development in the world of film can be predictedHe said I was just thinking the other day I wonder what the next most shocking thing is going to be in the cinemaââBecause so much has been done that has moved the needle and some of these directors are so talented right now and doing such a multitude of different things at the same time Whatâs going to be the next thing that rattles people and shocks people cinematically IANS

Kochi Dec 9 Malayalam actor Dileep has indicated that he will initiate fresh legal action following his acquittal by the trial court in the sensational 2017 actress assault case even as the Kerala government announced its decision to challenge the verdict before the High Court In a strong reaction after the judgment Dileep said he would seek a probe into what he described as a âconspiracyâ behind his implication in the caseHe alleged that the investigation team had misled even the Chief Minister and claimed that he was made a scapegoat by certain officials for their personal gainsDileep said further legal steps would be taken after he receives a copy of the court verdictIn a controversial claim Dileep alleged that the conspiracy to implicate him was initiated by actor Manju Warrier his former wifeHe referred to her speech at the AMMA Association of Malayalam Movie Artists gathering at Durbar Hall Ground where she had said the conspiracy behind the attack on the actress must be exposedDileep claimed that it was soon after this speech that he was made an accused in the caseManju Warrier has not responded to these allegationsBacking Dileep his counsel B Raman Pillai alleged that a senior police officer had conspired to falsely implicate the actorHe specifically targeted ADGP B Sandhya who had supervised the investigation accusing her of leading the conspiracyDileep also claimed that certain criminal elements within the police fabricated false narratives using prison inmates with the intention of destroying his life and careerMeanwhile the state government has made it

stated as early as 2017 that Dileep was not made an accused on the basis of proper evidenceâThis is not the correct way to investigate cases Is an investigation supposed to proceed by first arresting a person then trying to manufacture evidence against him and even creating false narratives for that purposeâ said Senkumar IANS

debate Everyones working process is different Chennai Dec 8 Actress Krithi Shetty who is one of the top actresses in the Tamil and Telugu film industries at the present has opined that cinema has never been a one size fits all kind of industry and that the choice to work for only eight hours or more will depend on an individual and that it will vary from person to person In an exclusive interview to IANS Krithi Shetty who will be seen playing the female lead character in director Nalan Kumarasamys upcoming commercial entertainer Vaa Vaathiyaar was asked about the debate over certain actresses insisting on shooting only for eight hours a day while certain others in the film industry were all for working longer hoursResponding to the question Krithi Shetty said I think cinema has never been one size fits all Every single person here is different Everyones working process is different No two people are the same Obviously no two actresses can be the same Because I think actresses are a little more different in their process of living and a little more clear because they are so conscious of what they do So I think it all depends on what works for youExplaining her point of view further by using herself as an example Krithi Shetty said Personally I can work 24 hours because I might have the energy to I dont have as many family responsibilities to take care of I am willing to I am a directors actor If the director requires me to work 13 hours I am completely willing to In fact while shooting for this film I was doing double shifts One in Hyderabad and one here in Chennai Right now I am willing to work because I have the energy But if someone doesnt I particularly dont see it as a wrong thingThe actress explained that the working hours factor would not be an issue if everything was discussed in advance If the director and the producers know in advance that an actor is willing to work these long hours then there is no issue If not they can look for another person So I think it depends on the individual And its healthier if its discussed in prior IANS

that streaming giant Netflix will acquire Warner Bros including its film and TV studios and its gaming business among others acclaimed filmmaker Shekhar Kapur questioned that the conversation is missing the most critical point which is the individual consumer Taking to X formerly called Twitter Shekhar shared that while industry discussions focus on corporate strategy profitability and longterm business projections they are built on a flawed assumption that large corporations can predict or steer what individuals will choose to watchShekhar wrote âIn the impending purchase of Warner Brothers by Netflix everyone is looking at corporate strategy corporate profitability long term bussinessand assumptions about what the consumers will wantâsicââAs if a large pool of historical IP matched by delivery power to consumers at current state of technology is the future but most of those assumptions are wrong why Because a consumer is an individual and makes individual choices and the assumption that at large scale corporations can predict or even direct an individualâs choice is fundamentally falseâsicâHe highlighted that this belief is even more misplaced today with the rapid rise of AI which he tagged as âthe most democratic technology we have had in a long timeââEven more so with the onset of AI For AI is the most democratic technology that we have had for a long time primarily because itâs gives each individual the power of choice and the ability to exert that individual power and AI will give the individual the power to influence the collective sicâAs per Shekhar who has been feted with a BAFTA Award a National Film Award a National Board of Review Award and a nomination for a Golden Globe Award AI will dismantle the traditional idea of scale as an advantageâAnd therefore AI will be anti size or anti the ability to encapsulate or force consumers to choose according to corporate board room decisionsââThe filmmaker said that AI will âallow really sophisticated content to be created by individuals at far far lower costs than the corporations can ever manage and be shared directly with other individualsââBe it via YouTube or other platforms that could soon be created AI will allow the battle between the democracy of individual content creation and the gatekeepers of content to be a one sided contest in favour of the individualâPointing to the rise of TikTok which achieved nearbilliondollar valuation before Hollywood understood its impact HE said microdramas and lowbudget formats are becoming global sensations With AI lowering the barrier to entry even further he believes the traditional gatekeepers of content are in âserious troubleââDonât forget that Tik Tok was almost a Billion Dollar valuation even before Hollywood had caught on to it and now MicroDramaâs are becoming really popular which can be created at such low costs AI has lowered the entry bar to what was once high budget content so much that the GateKeepers of content are

identity to be present at the Vatican I am already half Indian at heart so it felt naturalShe added I performed two songs that shaped my career La Betleem Colo Joos the Romanian version of Teri Meri

all know today Its a song that touches hearts and I wanted the message to reach people there as wellThe singer further said Honestly I didnt have much time to prepare which turned out to be a blessing

because there is a line that we cannot cross said Gulshan talking to IANSSimulating intimacy or violence is very tricky as there is always a boundary you cant go beyond yet you still have to create the illusion of it being real So you must find ways to do it responsibly he addedWhen I am working with someone they have to trust me and I have to trust them so that we take care of each other You have to build that trust quickly especially when you dont know the person very wellThe actor spoke about the involvement of intimacy coordinators on setSometimes there are intimacy coordinators like in Ulajh we had one from the UK who guided us stepbystep through the process and made everyone feel comfortable Its a different matter that later threequarters of those scenes were cut from the film Nothing much remained in the final version but thats how it is sometimesThe actor also said Over time I have become more experienced with such scenes Back when we were shooting Hate Story in 2012 there were no intimacy coordinators or anyone to help us navigate these things We had to figure everything out on our own Thankfully I was working with Paoli Dam who was very supportive and made me feel comfortable throughoutTalking about Gulshan the actor has been on a roll with his backtoback projects that have yet again proven his acting prowessWhen IANS asked Gulshan about casting for shows and movies based on the number of social media followers he said I dont give a shit Its a trend Is it valid Does it have any real merit I dont knowI am not sure if all those followers are actually translating into subscriptions or ticket sales I dont know But somebody who knows better than me is making these decisions and maybe they think its a good idea to hire someone based on thatHe added Some of those people are actually pretty decent too they are good actors I dont want to say anything negative about anyone Everyone should find their own wayCiting his own social media example Gulshan said Now open my social media and see how many followers I have I dont even have 300K Yet I am getting work IANS

2 hours in the evening Mumbai Dec 5 Content creator and actress Prajakta Koli has spoken about how viewing habits have changed since the 1990s when kids had just a twohour window and six channels to choose from She noted that today the power to determine a showâs recall value rests entirely with the audience Sharing her thoughts on the changing content landscape Prajakta told IANS that growing up

Mac or on their iPad They can have it on their phone They can have an audio going on So its extremely diverse right now So the recall value has also been reduced because of thatâHowever she disagrees with the idea that shows today donât leave a lasting impactâBut then again there are stories every now and then that come through that make you wait Will it come again Those questions still comeâ she notedAccording to her it is now the audience that determines what stays in memoryâSo the onus has moved on to the audience dictating which one will have a recall value and which not But I dont agree that it doesnt have a recall valueâPrajakta concludedPrajakta will next be seen in âSingle Papaâ on Netflix Starring Manoj Pahwa Kunal Kemmu Prajakta and Ayesha Raza Mishra the series follows Gaurav

rubbish I am sick and tired of it Stop complaining I am not saying put up with injustice but stop cribbing about this kind of trivial nonsense and put in the workâ he added Gulshan added that the nature of showbiz is inherently competitive unpredictable and often unfair but that is the very foundation of the industry âAccept the nature of the business That is the nature of the business Are you prepared for it Only then come to the industry otherwise get lost Do something elseâThe actor further emphasising the importance of humility and consistent effort the only secret to achieving goals said that every artist believes they deserve better but entitlement is never the answer âWho the hell are you to think that you deserve betterâ questioned Gulshan âKeep your head down work and hope

Awardwinning actor Leonardo DiCaprio says he has approached his career like a âmarathon not a sprintâ Speaking to deadlinecom the 51yearold actor who has enjoyed success in movies such as Catch Me If You Can The Departed and The Wolf of Wall Street said The thing that I could say more than anything is that if you love this profession if you love being an actor you have to realise that itâs a marathon itâs not a sprintââAnd thatâs not to say Oh these are all pivotal choices Donât try something commercial Donât do this too early Itâs about the idea of looking at your career 20 30 40 50 years from now and putting those building blocks together to last And maybe overexposure could be damagingâ he addedThe star went on to share I think if anything I had somewhat of an instinct early on about overexposure Granted it was a different time It was a time where I watched actors that kind of disappeared their personal life and you didnât know much about them Itâs much different now with social media But I didnât get to know much about them except what I saw on screenDiCaprio said that he was very lucky very early on in his career However the actor appeared in a lot of independent movies before making his big breakthrough reports femalefirstcoukHe said I got to see them build a body of great work over time I wasnât inundated with a massive explosion of too many films by them in one or two years That isnât to say you shouldnât take the work when itâs given to you but itâs the idea of doling it out or maybe just taking those films that have great supporting characters that are interesting and making your mark in the industryâI was very fortunate and very lucky very early on And like I said with Titanic that was the real changing point when I got to choose my own films But until then I did a lot of independent movies I just went for the character that I thought was most interesting and something that I could sink my teeth into IANS
