A million hearts were broken yesterday as pop icon Armaan Malik announced his engagement to long-time girlfriend and influencer Aashna Shroff. Sharing images from his proposal, the You singer wrote: “And our forever has only just begun”. Industry colleagues including Neeti Mohan, and Ishaan Khatter extended their wishes.

On Shroff’s 30th birthday this year, Malik took to his social media handle and wrote, “Happy 30th to my favourite human. It feels like it’s been a lifetime knowing you. Doing nothing with you is better than doing anything with anybody. Love you.” Recently, the two had also shared pictures of them posing in designer wear, in Paris, sparking wedding rumours. Malik enjoys a massive fan following, especially among the youth.  

Of all things love

ABCD actor Lauren Gottlieb shared that she got engaged to her London-based beau, Tobias Jones, in an intimate ceremony. She made an official announcement about the same on her Instagram handle. She shared a series of photos from her engagement ceremony and wrote: “A million times, yes, officially, forever, Tobias. You are the man of my dreams! I always knew there was that perfect combination of a man who is super driven, spontaneous, fun, and wild, and equally loving, kind, caring, and patient. You are all these things and so much more! After that first phone call we had from Los Angeles to London, I just knew we were supposed to be in each other’s lives.” Gottlieb had a prominent role in Remo D’Souza’s directorial venture.

What’s in a jersey?

The Delhi High Court has issued a directive to the filmmakers of the movie, Jailer, to ensure that from September 1, none of the theatres exhibit the jersey of 
the IPL team, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), as worn by a contract killer in one of the scenes in the film. Justice Prathiba M Singh, who was hearing a suit filed by the IPL team against the filmmakers for using the team’s jersey in a derogatory manner, said that the Rajnikanth starrer’s release on television, satellite, or any OTT (Over-The-Top) platform shall have an altered version of the film, prior to its release. It is alleged that the contract killer in the film wearing the jersey reportedly makes derogatory and misogynistic statements about a woman. The IPL team argued that the negative depiction using their jersey without permission could damage their brand image, and equity.
