Sambit Patra Apologies For 'Lord Jagannath Devotee Of PM Modi' Remark

 BJP candidate from Puri Lok Sabha seat, Sambit Patra apologised for his Mahaprabhu is devotee of PM Modi remarks following backlash and termed it an unintentional mistake. He also said need to seek forgiveness from Mahaprabhu Jagannath for this slip of the tongue and he has decided to do a `upvaas`. Sambit Patra said, "Today, a statement made by me had created a controversy. After PM Narendra Modi`s roadshow in Puri, I gave byte to many media channels and everywhere I said the same thing, that PM Narendra Modi is an ardent devotee of Mahaprabhu Jagannath... In the end, when another channel took my byte, it was extremely hot, crowded and noisy. Unknowingly, while giving the byte, I said the opposite, that Mahaprabhu is a devotee of PM Narendra Modi. This can never be true, and a person in his senses can never say such things that god is a devotee of a human. I have made this mistake unintentionally. I know some people must have been hurt but even god forgives mistakes made unintentionally... I need to seek forgiveness from Mahaprabhu Jagannath for this slip of the tongue and I have decided to do a `upvaas`."

Jackie Shroff Files Case in Delhi HC to protect his iconic ‘Bhidu’ personality

Actor Jackie Shroff has approached the Delhi High Court to seek protection of his personality and publicity rights on May 14. The suit has been filed against entities for unauthorized use of his name, photographs, voice, and the iconic term "Bhidu." Shroff is asking the court to stop these parties from using any part of his identity that makes him unique, as this could confuse or deceive people. On Tuesday, Justice Sanjeev Narula took up the case and issued summons related to Shroff`s request. The actor is requesting a permanent injunction to prevent the defendants from violating his personality and publicity rights by using his name `Jackie Shroff`, `Jackie`, `Jaggu Dada`, `Bhidu`, as well as his voice, image, and any other unique attributes associated with him, for any commercial or personal benefit.
