Ajmer: Talking to re-
porters in Ajmer, Chief
Minister Ashok Gehlot
said that no tax was im-
posed in the first five
budgets. “We did not
mere make budget an-
nouncements but im-
plemented them as well.
We gave the people what
they asked for. The an-
nouncements are so
many that every section
will get benefited. The
atmosphere of Rahul
Gandhi’s visit was spec-
tacular everywhere and
the countdown has be-
gun for the BJP in the
country. The situation
of the country is criti-
cal and it has to be un-
derstood. If not taken
care of, the situation
will get worse. PM Nar-
endra Modi speaks well,
it is a good thing. But
democracy is in danger.
ED and CBI are being
misused. Ten lakh fam-
ilies have left the coun-
try. The last weapon of
BJP is polarisation,”
Gehlot said. Turn to P8

‘The Kerala Story’ at an

Friday and accused the
Congress of having a

“There was a lot of
discussion about Kera-
la Story, which discuss-
es ploys to make the
country hollow from
within. They say Kerala
Story is based on the
terrorist plots in just
one state. Such a beauti-
ful state, where people
are hard working and

has exposed the terror
conspiracies,” PM Modi
said. Full Report on P5, P6
Terrorism was against humanity, life val-

the Congress has surrendered in front of
terrorists to appease its vote bank. They had not
uttered a word against terrorism for fear of losing
its vote bank. —Narendra Modi, Prime Minister
They (Pakistan) are committing acts

gan in Jawahar Kala
Kendra on Friday. The
three-day organic food
festival, being jointly

also the need of the

This is a commendable

Jaipur: BJP state presi-
dent CP Joshi has called
inflation relief camps
as disaster camps for
the public. Joshi said
that the government
did the work of putting
the public in trouble
through these camps
and now trouble is go-
ing to befall the govern-
ment. Joshi also at-
tacked the Congress
over the ban on Bajrang
Dal. Before leaving for
Karnataka, Joshi said
that it was in the Ra-
jasthan government’s
manifesto that it would
end inflation, but did
nothing in four years.
“Now dearness relief
camps have been set up
which have become
hurt camps instead of
relief camps.” He said.
Joshi said that they
must learn from PM
Narendra Modi how re-
lief has been brought to
every person sitting at
home. Joshi said that in
the relief camp, people
collapse and die. “Gov-
ernment has put the
lives of the people in
danger. It is unfortu-
nate to raise protest slo-
gans against the PM in
a government pro-
gramme by installing
LEDs. This is a crime
and action should be
taken against the lead-
ers and officials found
guilty. There is an at-
tempt to spread hatred
byshowingLEDagainst
the PM by misusing
government money,” he
said.
Joshi said in the case
of Bajrang Dal ban an-
nouncement by the Kar-
nataka Congress has in
a way crossed the limits
of appeasement. “The
comparison of terrorist
organizations with Ba-
jrang Dal is unfortu-
nate.EveninRajasthan,
a minister has talked
about banning Bajrang
Dal, this is the extreme
limit of appeasement.
The downfall of the gov-
ernment which banned
the hoisting of the saf-
fron flag, chanting the
slogan of Shri Ram,
banning the procession
on Ram Navami is cer-
tain,” he said.
Regarding Modi’s
arrival, Joshi said that
PM Modi is coming to
Rajasthan on May 10.
“He will go to Brahma
Kumari after visiting
Shrinathji. From there
he will address the
public meeting at Abu
Road. There is enthu-
siasm among the peo-
ple of Rajasthan that
PM Modi is coming,”
he said

13, the day which rocked
Jaipur with a series of

to provide adequate
representation in the
High Court which led to
the cancellation of the
death sentence awarded
by the lower court. De-
spite after one month of
the acquittal, the gov-
ernment has not filed
an SLP in the apex
court. A Dhikkar pro-
test will be organised

isa will also be recited

Sawai Madhopur: The
Forest Department and
the National Tiger Con-
servation Authority
(NTCA) have finally de-
cided the fate of the
dreaded tiger T-104 of
Ranthambore. The
NTCA has approved the
proposal sent by the For-
est Department and per-
mission has been given
to shift the tiger from
Ranthambore to
Udaipur's Sajjangarh
Biological Park.
After getting the per-
mission, the prepara-
tions for shifting have
been started by the For-
est Department. The ti-
ger will be shifted from
Ranthambore to
Udaipur's Sajjangarh
Biological Park next
week by the Forest De-
partment.
After getting permis-
sion from NTCA, the
process for shifting of
T-104 has been cleared
and soon after about
three-and-a-half-year
T-104willbeshiftedfrom
the enclosure built at
Bhid Naka in Rantham-
bore. There was a de-
mand to shift T-104 else-
where. In the past, a
committee was formed
by the Forest Depart-
ment to study the nature
of T-104. The committee
had also declared the ti-
ger as a threat to hu-
mans, considering the
nature of the tiger as
fierce and refused to
leave the tiger in the
open forest.
InJuly
,aproposalwas
prepared by the Chief
Wildlife Warden of the
Forest Department to
shift T-104 to the enclo-
sure built in Mukunda-
ra. In this regard, a let-
ter was also written by

until now permission in
this regard could not be
obtained from NTCA.

QUESTIONS RAISED
ON FOREST DEPT AS
T-54 GOES MISSING
FOR SIX MONTHS
Ranthambore Tiger
Reserve has become
a maze for tigresses and
their cubs. Once lost,
a tiger, tigress or cub
cannot be traced. This
has raised questions
on the claims of forest
department monitoring
and tracking. Tigress
138, tiger T-3, cubs
of T-79, young tiger
T-131 have disappeared
in Ranthambore. And
the latest is tigress
T-54 which has gone
missing. This tigress
has been missing since
the last six months.The
higher officials of the

TOP
TWEETS
ith temperatures soaring across
the country
, the start of May has
been more than mercurial in IPL
— 2023. The Lucknow Super Gi-
ants and Royal Challengers Ban-
galore had an intense first ex-
change at the Chinnaswamy,
Bangalore,whereLucknowcame
out on top with a last ball win.
The victory was celebrated with
a lot of passion by the players
and their coach, Gautam Gamb-
hir. The gestures didn’t go down
well with the always-passionate
Virat Kohli who made sure to
“give it back” after Bangalore
won the second match between
the two teams at the Lucknow
Ekana stadium a few days ago!
The result was that the tem-
pers flared up after the match
followed by a heated altercation
between ex-Indian opener, Gau-
tam Gambhir and current Su-
perstar, Virat Kohli. The angry
duo were in such a rage that
they had to be separated by fel-
low players. IPL authorities
fined both Kohli and Gambhir
100 percent of their match fees
as they were found to have
breached article 2.21 of the tour-
nament’s code of conduct and
brought the game into disre-
pute. Lucknow bowler Naveen-
ul-Haq also had an exchange of
words with Kohli during the
game and was fined 50 percent
of his match fee.
Later, in the dressing room,
Kohli was seen celebrating the
close victory with his team
mates, in a video released by his
franchise on social media. He
can be heard saying, “that’s a
sweet win boys. A sweet win. If
you can give it, you got to take it.
Otherwise, don’t give it” — a di-
rect retort to Gambhir’s aggres-
sion in the previous game.
Such fiery scenarios are an
integral part of sport and IPL is
the biggest money spinner in
cricket with increased stakes
for everyone, especially the play-
ers. The heightened passion
sometimes results in ugly fights
on field and there are plenty of
previous examples of that in the
15-year IPL history. In fact, the
Delhi duo of Kohli and Gambhir
were involved in a similar tussle
earlier in 2013. They were both
captains of their respective
franchises and Gambhir at the
time was leading the Kolkata
Knight Riders.
ABOUT 2013
In the 2013 fracas, Bangalore
was chasing and Kohli was at
the crease when he got out
against the run of play. As he
was about to leave the ground,
he saw some nasty words being
thrown at him from the opposi-
tion bowler. Not one to back out
of any challenge, Kohli strode
towards the Kolkata player
when Gambhir came face to face
with him and they had a severe
verbal clash and could be sepa-
rated only through the interven-
tion of the Kolkata players. Both
players were eventually fined 10
percent of the match fees.
ABOUT 2008
Earlier, in the inaugural IPL sea-
son in 2008, two stars of the In-
dian team, Harbhajan Singh and
Sreesanth were involved in a
‘slapgate’ incident. Mumbai In-
dians had lost the match against
Kings XI Punjab by a huge mar-
gin and according to reports,
Harbhajan, playing for Mumbai
wassoirritatedwithSreesanth’s
antics, the leading bowler for the
Punjab side, that he slapped
him. Thereafter, the images of
Sreesanth crying went viral and
the fiasco resulted in Harbhajan
being banned from the rest of
the season. But later, Harbhajan
confirmed that they had re-
solved the issue between them
after he apologised to Sreesanth.
One of the most dramatic
visuals of IPL that still keeps
getting replayed on social media
is of West Indian star Keiron
Pollard throwing his bat at Aus-
sie pacer Mitchell Starc in the
2014 edition of IPL. After Starc
playing for Royal Challengers
Bangalore bowled a bouncer to
Mumbai Indians’ Pollard, there
was an angry verbal exchange.
On the next ball, as Starc ran in,
Pollard backed off but Starc
went ahead with the delivery.
This enraged Pollard to such an
extent that he threw his bat at
him and Chris Gayle had to step
in to cool things down.
As the dramatic flare-ups in
IPLreflect,Sportsbringsthebest
and worst of human emotions
which makes fans connect more
strongly as the adrenaline rush
heightens contests. The central
protagonistsof theIPLclashthis

ABOUT 2009
In 2009, Gambhir even gave
away his Man of the Match

SONIA GANDHI TO
ADDRESS POLL RALLY
IN KARNATAKA TODAY
New Delhi (PTI): Senior BJP leader BL Santhosh has
said the Congress campaign in Karnataka peaked early
while his party’s electioneering is hitting the right chord
at the right time and has put it on course to win a
majority. Speaking on a ‘Twitter
Space’, the key BJP general sec-
retary in charge of the party or-
ganisation described Bajrang Dal
as a “nation-building force” and
slammed Congress for equating it
with the banned outfit PFI, which
he blamed for killing several of
his party’s workers. “Hindu and terrorism, they do not
go together at all. Hindu and extremism both words
cannot walk together.... They (Congress) have given
us an issue and we will be raising them,” he said amid
aggressive campaign by the BJP led by PM Narendra
Modi to corner the opposition party over the issue.
Bengaluru (PTI): Ex Con-
gress chief Sonia Gandhi
would address an election
rally in Hubballi on Saturday,
her first campaign meeting
for the Assembly elections
in Karnataka. The Congress
candidate in Hubballi-Dhar-
wad Central is former CM
Jagadish Shettar, who joined
the party after being denied
ticket to contest the elections
by the BJP. The BJP has
fielded Mahesh Tenginkai
from here. The fight between
Shettar and Tenginkai has
become a prestigious battle
of sorts for the ruling BJP
and the Congress.
‘I DID NOT ASK FOR ANY POSITION FROM
THE CONGRESS’: JAGADISH SHETTAR
Hubbali (Agencies): Six-term MLA and former Karna-
taka CM Jagadish Shettar on Friday said that he did not
ask the Congress for any position while switching over
from BJP which he had served for decades. The veteran
leader decided to part ways with
the BJP after being denied a ticket
for the May 10 Assembly polls. In
an interview with a section of me-
dia, Shettar denied the specula-
tions that the Congress offered a
plum position to him. He said that
he was not offered any position.
The Congress gave a ticket to contest from Hubbali and
it’s more than enough, he said. About his former party
BJP, Shettar said, that he was humiliated by a section
of the Karnataka BJP leaders and denied ticket one fine
morning. “It was not the denial of ticket that infuriated
me but the manner in which it was done,” he said.
BJP’s fresh salvo at
Kejriwal over his
house’s renovation
New Delhi (PTI): The
BJP on Friday fired a
fresh salvo at Delhi CM
Arvind Kejriwal amid
the row over the Rs 45
crore expenditure on his
residence, comparing
him with the likes of
Iraqi dictator Saddam
Hussein and North Ko-
reanleaderKimJongUn
in terms of “luxury”
linkedtotheir“palaces”.
BJP spokesperson
Sudhanshu Trivedi
played videos of Kejri-
wal’s old statements in
which he presented
himself as a crusader
against leaders spend-
ing public money on
expensive lifestyles, in-
cluding big houses, and
luxurious cars.
Trivedi hit out at Ke-
jriwal, quoting his 2013
tweet in which he had
targeted the then Delhi
CMSheilaDikshitforal-
legedly having 10 ACs in
herhousewhensomany
people lived in slums.
He accused the AAP
leaders of playing an
“important role” in cre-
ating a crisis of credi-
bility in Indian politics
and claimed that it is
the conduct of the likes
of him that causes dis-
trust among people
about the political class.
Trivedi said govern-
ment agencies will do
their job as per the law
but Kejriwal’s party
should provide “politi-
cal and moral” answers.
Kejriwal’s luxurious palace unveils so many
truths about him. The way and extent of the
luxury Mr. Kejriwal’s palace possesses seem
similar to Saddam Hussein’s and Kim Jong Un’s palac-
es one has heard.

Ex-Kerala CM Oommen Chandy
admitted to Bengaluru hospital
Mumbai (Agencies):
Shiv Sena (UBT) MP
and Chief Spokesper-
son Sanjay Raut on Fri-

President Sharad Pa-
war’s resignation.
“It was on anticipated
lines... There’s no alter-
native to Pawar Saheb...
The NCP committee’s
decision is correct,”
said Raut, soon after the
Maha Vikas Aghadi
(MVA) ally’s turmoil-
ridden party’s move.
He said that Pawar is
the most respected and
nationally accepted
leader and all the Oppo-
sition parties in the
country want him to
continue in his post.
“All parties are clear
on this, he is a uniting
force... Pawar Saheb
must continue as NCP
President, at least till
2024 polls,” urged Raut.
He reiterated that the
ruling Bharatiya Jana-
ta Party was making at-
tempts to destroy all
Opposition parties and
force them to merge
with it, using pressure
tactics of different
kinds.
“First the BJP broke
up the Shiv Sena, then
the NCP was being tar-
geted similarly with the
fear of the central inves-
tigating agencies... This
cannot work in a democ-
racy
,” he pointed out.

arrested and released
by the HC due to techni-

Jhalawar: Former CM
Vasundhara Raje on
Friday, said that even
today there is not as
much equality between
men and women in the
society as it should be.
She said that atten-
tion is paid to the educa-
tion of boys in small
villages but not that
much on the education
of girls. Raje said that
along with the good ini-
tiatives like mass mar-
riage programmes, peo-
ple should also organise
camps for girl child edu-
cation so that the entire
society can be educated.
Raje was speaking at
the mass marriage pro-
gramme of Gurjar and
Goswami communities.
She said that when
she came to Hadauti 3
decades ago, the condi-
tion was quite different.
The former CM said
that in these decades,
Jhalawar witnessed
many major positive
changes.
She said that there
was a time when the
people of this place had
to go to Kota for treat-
ment, but today there is
a medical college here.
“Today there are
many irrigation pro-
jects for the farmers
who have been yearn-
ing for irrigation for
years. There are big in-
stitutions for education
and adequate infra-
structure is there. This
is the result of our
team,” she said.
Former CM said that
she had to attend this
programme of Gurjar
Samaj. She said that she
can’t be separated from
the Gurjar Samaj. “We
are bound with each
other by a strong thread
because I am the ‘Samd-
han’ of this Samaj,” she

New Delhi: The Na-
tional Hindi News
Channel “Bharat-24”,
which was launched
only 9 months ago, has
surprised everyone in
the television industry
by taking a quantum
jump in the TRP ratings
this week. In the ratings
declared by BARC on
Friday morning, the
ratings and market
share of “Bharat-24”
has increased from 0.6
to 2%. According to
market sources, if this
channel continues to
grow at the same pace,
then it can even over-
take the Good News To-
day of the India Today
Group.
According to sources,
this long jump of
“Bharat-24” has direct-
ly affected News-24
channel, whose rat-
ings/market share has
come down from 5.7% to
3.2% which can directly
affect the Ad revenue of
the channel.
In the rating of the
free platform market
released by BARC, the
rating or market share
of ‘Bharat-24’ has
reached 6%, extremely
close to ABP news’s
6.6% share in the free
platform market.
However, as far as the
reach of Free Dish is
concerned, “Bharat-24”
with its 1.54 Cr reach
has overtaken ABP
news (1.45 Cr). It is note-
worthy that after leav-
ing behind ABP News
in Free Dish Reach,
“Bharat-24” has now
come close to Times
Now Navbharat (1.55
Cr) and India TV (1.57
Cr).
Significantly, in the
Free platform market,
‘Bharat-24’ with its 6%
rating has already over-
taken News Nation
channel with 5.1% rat-
ing or market share as
well as News Nation’s
Free Dish reach of
1.26Cr. After BARC rat-
ings, there was festive
joy in the channel’s of-
fice in Noida and the
staff expressed their
happiness by distribut-
ing ‘laddoos’ and ‘ka-
choris.’ Channel’s Chief
Business Officer Manoj
Jagyasi said that after
the increase in the rat-
ings of the channel, the
channel is getting tre-
mendous response in
the ad market.
On this occasion the
CEO of the channel Dr
Jagdeesh Chandra said
that on principle of
‘Khabar Hi Jeevan Hai,’
the channel has carved
a niche for itself in the
news market in just a
span of 8 months.

ayushi Dholakia is a
name that resonates
with beauty
, confidence,
and perseverance. Aay-
ushi made history by
becoming the first Indi-
an to win the Miss Teen
International crown in the pag-
eant’s 27-year history
. The beau-
ty was crowned Miss Teen Inter-
national 2019 on December 19, in
New Delhi, competing against 20
other contestants from around
the globe.
In an exclusive interview with
City First, Aayushi shares the
story of her journey, the support
of her family
, and her passion for
the entertainment industry
. “My
dad is a doctor, and my mom is a
fashion designer. I have got the
best of both worlds as I have a
completely academic back-
ground while also getting a hint
of the world of performing arts.
My parents never confined me to
focus on one particular field and
never wanted me to pursue a
medical degree. They have al-
ways supported and taught me to
do what I love and go for the ca-
reer that I want to pursue, which
is best for my future.”
Reflecting on her journey
, Aay-
ushi says, “The entire pageant
journey was quite enriching,
and my journey after winning
Miss Teen International has
been more eventful because I got
to discover and explore the other
possibilities I have in life. I have
started getting into acting, host-
ing, and broadcasting. Aayushi
conveyed her deepest apprecia-
tion and gratitude towards the
esteemed Glamanand Group, led
by the visionary Nikhil Anand
and Jagdeesh Chandra, for be-
stowing upon her the exception-
al opportunity to flaunt her pro-
ficiency as a host and display her
innate talents with elegance and
finesse. Their unwavering sup-
port and guidance throughout
her remarkable journey have
undoubtedly played a pivotal
role in shaping her career and
realizing her dreams.
Aayushi’s source of inspira-
tion and role model is the former
Miss Universe, Sushmita Sen. “I
look up to her not only because
she made our country proud by
winning the Miss Universe title,
but also admire how empowered
she is. She is a woman of her
word and does what she says.
She is a genuine personality
. It
is really inspiring how she
manages her family and work,
and striking the right balance is
something we can learn from
her.”
Aayushi’s motto in life is
“FOOD,” where F stands for fo-
cus, O for optimism, the sec-
ond O for observation,
and D for discipline.
“Discipline and de-
termination are
what you need in
life to achieve
great success. So
this is my
‘FOOD’ formu-
la.”
Aayushi’s
passion for
the entertain-
ment indus-
try and her
determina-
tion to suc-
ceed make
her an inspi-
ration to many
young aspiring
models and ac-
tresses. Her jour-
ney so far has
been amazing,
and she is fo-
cused on
a c h i e v i n g
her child-
hood dream of becoming
Femina Miss India. With her
talent, passion, and dedica-
tion, Aayushi is sure to
make a significant impact
in the Indian entertain-
ment industry in the
years to come.
City First brings to you the alluring odyssey of Aayushi
Dholakia, a remarkably gifted and dynamic damsel, who
soared to the pinnacle of triumph as the distinguished
anchor of the esteemed Miss Teen Diva 2022!

Dr Archit Tiwari, who has been awarded the Fellow of the Indian Society Of Oral Implantologist
(F.I.S.O.I) and Diplomate in Oral Implantology by the World Congress of Oral Implantology
(Japan) for his work in the field of dental implants, completed his graduation in 2017 and an
internship from Govt. Dental College Hospital, Jaipur. In an exclusive interview with City First,

r Archit Tiwari
emphasizes pre-
vention as well as
personalized at-
tention, offering
complete dental
services in all ar-
eas including general care,
cosmetic dentistry and
dental implants. Fear of
going to the dentist affects
over 90% of people. Dental
avoidance, the noise of
drills, the fear of pain,
phobia, inhibition and
other concerns contribute
to dental stress and anxi-
ety. Dr Tiwari's desire to
give the most comfortable
dental experience possible
has motivated him to im-
port and implement the
latest dental technology at
Impladent, Tilak Nagar,
Jaipur, from the ambience
to treatment rooms and
dental chairs. With sophis-
ticated technology and one
of the finest dentists in the
world, he practices almost
painless procedures for
precise outcomes.
Dr Archit Tiwari com-
pleted his junior residency
in the Dept. of Maxillofa-
cial Surgery at the prestig-
ious VMMC Safdarjung
Hospital, New Delhi. He is
the youngest implantolo-
gist in the country and has
received various awards.
Dr Archit Tiwari is also a
certified Sports dentist by
the Institute of Sports Sci-
ence Technology
. He spe-
cialised in making cus-
tomised mouthguards for
athletes managing Oro-
Facial Injuries. He is also
a sports dentist at the
sports injury centre, SMS
Stadium Jaipur. Dr Archit
is Asso. Fellow in Laser
Dentistry By World Clini-
cal Laser Institute (USA).
He is even appointed as an
Honorary Consultant den-
tist to the Vice President
of India, Jagdeep
Dhankhar his family
.
Affordable dental treat-
ment, state-of-the-art facil-
ity, world-class technology
and soothing ambience
have positioned him in
such a way to attract pa-
tients and celebrities from
all across.

Dr Archit, you are a certified
sports dentist, how is it dif-
ferent from a regular dentist?
Sports dentistry is one of the
most recent and upcoming fields
in dentistry. It mainly includes
the prevention and management
of athletics-r elated orofacial in-
juries and associated oral dis-
eases. Customised mouthguards
are fabricated for athletes so
that it fits properly and saves the
oral cavity from any oral inju-
ries while playing.
What attracted you to
dentistry?
I have acknowledged and ad-
mired this profession since
childhood and had the privilege
to learn under the best that is my
mother Dr Anjali Dave Tiwari,
an ardent Oral and Maxillofacial
Surgeon who has inspired me
every day with her compassion
towards patient care.
What is the role of implan-
tology in dental options for
the elderly?
There isn’t really any age which
is considered ‘too old for dental
implant treatment’. A reasona-
bly healthy person can safely
and predictably have implants
placed resulting in a vastly im-
proved quality of life, assisting
them to maintain a balanced nu-
tritious diet and active lifestyle;
remaining every bit as confident
and socially engaging as a per-
son with their natural teeth.

You have been appointed as Honorary
Consultant dentist to the Hon’ble Vice
President of India, Shri Jagdeep
Dhankhar his family, how did this
happen?
Hon’ble VP sir is very close to our family
and in the initial days of his law practice, he
use to be a close associate of my grandfather
Justice VS Dave. He has been taking dental
treatment from my mother Dr Anjali Dave
Tiwari and now I am fortunate enough to fill
her shoes as I have been appointed the Hony
Consultant Dentist to Hon’Ble VP Sir.
You also have a charity clinic at Jagat-
pura, how did that come about and
how does it function?
We have our charity clinic at Jagatpura,
where we treat patients for the majority of
treatments obtaining zero monetary bene-
fits provide some treatments at a very low
and affordable cost. We started this because
I used to experience regularly in my prac-
tice that many people want to get good qual-
ity treatment done and are in major pain
but unfortunately, they cannot afford pri-
vate clinics and face a lot of challenges
in terms of hygiene and
availability in get-
ting treatment at
government
hospitals.

fans with their roman-
tic pictures on social

post a picture, it takes

surprise fans by shar-
ing a beautiful picture

like the power couple
enjoyed an intimate
dinner date in Delhi.
In the picture, Anush-

rat looked dapper in
an all-black outfit. The
couple always manag-
es to complement each
other. They were seen

posed for the camera.
Virat ditched a cap-
tion and instead,
used red heart and
infinity sign emo-
jis. After he
shared the pic-
ture, their fans
were seen re-
acting to it.

rived at the Met Gala 2023 red carpet
on Monday wearing a beautiful red
gown by Haider Ackermann for Jean
Paul Gaultier. This wasn't the only
Ackermann-designed outfit Jenner
wore that night. She also wore a
black, off-the-shoulder gown later in the
evening to dance the night away. The 25-year-
old star’s choice of designer could be a hint
to her bud- ding connection with Oscar
nominee and rumoured boy-
friend Timothée Chalamet
who is apparently a close friend
of Ackermann. The 'Dune' ac-
tor has a long relationship
with Ackermann and has worn
his creations to various signifi-
cant occasions in the past. However, he
was conspicuously absent from the gala
event despite having just finished filming a

T
he Kerala Story
starring Adah
Sharma, Yogita
Bihani, Siddhi
Idnani and Sonia Bala-
ni has been hitting
headlines for the
wrong reasons. Ever
since the trailer was
released, the film faced
massive backlash on
social media. Kerala
Chief Minister
Pinarayi Vijayan even
slammed the makers
for ‘spreading hate
propaganda against
the state’. On Friday,
Kerala High Court re-
fused to issue a stay
order on the release of
the film ‘The Kerala
Story’. The petitions
were filed in pursu-
ance of a teaser of the
film which was re-
leased recently depict-
ing that innocent girls
were lured and con-
verted to Islam over a
period of time. The pe-
titioners alleged that
the film, which claims
to be based on true
facts, is ‘false and mis-
leading’ and is likely to
hurt religious senti-
ments and spread ha-
tred between commu-
nities in India. The
petitions were first
filed in Supreme Court
under Article 32 of the
Constitution of India.
However, the Supreme
Court held that it was
open for the petition-
ers to move to the ap-
propriate High Court
having jurisdiction.
Later, the case went to
Kerela High Court and
Chennai High Court.
Ameet Naik, Manag-
ing Partner of Naik,
Naik and Company
represented the pro-
ducers of the film Vi-
pul Shah and Sunshine
Pictures Pvt. Ltd. and
opposed the grant of
any reliefs against the
release and exploita-
tion of the film. Naik
pointed out that the
film carries a disclaim-
er that it is a work of
fiction and does not
claim ‘historical and
factual accuracy’. He
also pointed out that
CBFC, which is a statu-
tory body competent to
certify films has found
the film to be in con-
formity with the
Guidelines and fit for
public exhibition. Both
the courts refused to
grant any relief
against the filmmak-
ers and the film. The
Division Bench of Ker-
ela High Court, after
watching the teaser
and trailer of the film
observed that there is
no allegation against
Islam and there is noth-
ing offensive to any
particular community
as a whole. The court
also not-
ed that the
film carries
an appropriate
disclaimer and is
certified by CBFC to
be fit for public exhi-
bition. The courts
refused to grant
any stay on the
release and exhi-
bition of the
film. After be-
ing surrounded
by controversy,
the film has
been finally re-
leased world-
wide today
.

her daughter True’s

she would like to
name her son with
something beginning
