We already knew but we got to hear, bold and clear for the first time when Kangana Ranaut said to filmmaker Karan Johar on his chat show that he is the ‘Flag bearer of Nepotism’. It didn’t quite went well with everyone in the industry though.

So, we have many star kids making stunning debuts throughout the years and then we also have actors and actress whom we never knew to be from a lineage, strongly connected to Bollywood. So, here are some stars whom you’ll get to know all over again.

1.Ajay Devgn
We all know that how his wife Kajol holds a very filmy lineage with both of her parents. But little did we know that Ajay Devgan’s father Veeru Devgan was a famous action choreographer and his mother, Veena Devgan was also a famous producer.

2.Ameesha Patel
We first saw this beautiful actress opposite Hrittik Roshan in Kaho na Pyaar Hein. We knew that she had no Bollywood lineage but her grandfather, Barrister Rajni Patel was the Committee President of Congress Pradesh in Mumbai.

3.Ruslaan Mumtaz
We first saw Ruslaan in the film Mera Pehla Pehla Pyaar Hai, where he was quite promising enough. He is the son of Anjana Mumtaz whom you’ll remember as Shilpa Shetty’s mother in the film Dhadkan.

4.Harman Baweja
He made his debut in Love Story 2050 opposite Priyanka Chopra. He is not an outsider in this film industry, as his father Harry Baweja is a notable film director. He directed films like Imtihaan and Commando.

5.Neil Nitin Mukesh
He debuted in 2007 with his film Johny Gaddar. He has a very strong Bollywood connection with both of his father, Nitin Mukesh and grandfather Mukesh, being playback singers.

6.Shreyas Talpade
He made quite a debut in 2005 with the film Iqbal. His aunt Jayashree t worked in many regional as well as Hindi language films in the ’70s and ’80s. Her last was Chalte Chalte.

7.Govinda
We never got to know about his filmy lineage. His father, Arun Ahuja was a known face in the Bollywood Industry in the ’40s. His career almost stopped after his film Aulad tanked at the box office.

8.Anil Kapoor
We know so much about this Kapoor family of Bollywood, be it Sonam, Arjun or Jahnvi. We even know Anil Kapoor’s brothers, Sanjay and Boney Kapoor. What we don’t know is that Anil Kapoor’s father, Surinder Kapoor was a famous producer.

9.Yami Gautam
When she made her debut with Vicky Donor in 2012 opposite Ayushmaan Khurana, very few knew that her father, Mukesh Gautam is a Punjabi film director and also the president of PTC Punjabi Networks.

10.Vivek Oberoi
His father Suresh Oberoi was quite a famous actor in Bollywood during the ’80s and ’90s. He last appeared on screen with the Kannada film, Attahasa.

Gone are the days when you actually travelled to see a new place or have a new experience. Now all you want are aesthetic places with pretty backgrounds so that you can get amazing DPs for your Facebook profile.

Don’t even try denying, for we’re all guilty of this. But what if we said that there were places around the world where selfies were banned? Would you still go?

A lot of tourist hot spots have banned selfies, for various reasons which include security. Check these out:

1. Disneyland, USA

Yes, although you may sneak in a selfie or two, Disneyland has banned the use of selfie sticks on the property.

2. Mumbai, India

After a number of lives were lost due to people going out of their way to click selfies, Mumbai has banned selfies in some places which includes Marine Drive.

3. Colosseum, Rome

The main reason why you’re not allowed to click selfies here is because of a lack of space and because you might end up damaging property.

4. Garoupe Beach, South of France

Too many people had been posting selfies of themselves enjoying at the beach. The authorities decided that beach time was meant for relaxation, and thus banned selfies.

5. Van Gogh museum, Netherlands

This museum has banned selfies and selfie sticks altogether. You can click pictures, but no selfies are allowed.

6. Lake Tahoe, California

Lake Tahoe is a favourite haunt for wild bears. Of course, unless you want a bear photobombing your perfect selfie, you wouldn’t want to click a picture here.

7. Mecca, Saudi Arabia

After several pilgrims began documenting their pilgrimage through selfies, the authorities were forced to take the extreme decision of bannning selfies here.

8. South Korea

While selfies are not completely banned in South Korea, the use of selfie sticks is banned since it can cause a public nuisance.

So, are you planning to visit these places?

In 2012, Bollywood got its first high school/college drama, Student Of The Year. The film was produced by Karan Johar and introduced us to Sidharth Malhotra, Alia Bhatt and Varun Dhawan.

The film was a massive hit, and all 3 actors went on to become mega stars in their own right. 7 years later, Karan Johar has decided to produce a sequel to the film, Student Of The Year 2, or SOTY 2.

The film will once again be launching two new actresses, Tara Sutaria and Ananya Pandey, daughter of Chunky Pandey. The film also stars Tiger Shroff.

The three look really at ease in front of the camera, and Punit Malhotra, the director, seems to have done a magnificent job with the trio.

The film will also be launching another debutante, who has already made quite a name for himself. Yes, it is none other than India’s Favourite YouTuber, Harsh Beniwal.

Recently, we came across some leaked photos from set, and guess what, your favourite YouTuber, Harsh Beniwal is in the film. We don’t know what role he will be playing in SOTY 2, but he is certainly present in a brand new avatar.

He looks pretty cool and dashing in the photo which appears to have been taken on phone by someone on set. Check out this photo:

If you zoom in, you can see Tiger in the shot as well. We also found this video on Twitter:

The film is going to be entertainment in the true sense of the term, if the last Koffee With Karan episode is to be believed. Student Of The Year 2 releases this year, and we really can’t wait to see if Tara, Tiger, Ananya and Harsh live up to expectations.

Last year when Amazon Prime released its crime web series, Mirzapur,produced under Excel Entertainment, people were astounded by its powerful content and brilliant performances by the cast.

The nine episode series stars Pankaj Tripathi, Ali Fazal, Diveyndu Sharma, Vikrant Massey, Shweta Tripathi, Rasika Dugal and Shriya Pilgaonkar in prominent roles. It all started in 16th November and when it ended, it demanded a follow up season soon.

Even in an interview actor Ali Fazal, who essays the role of Guddu Pandit in the show said that they are really trying to bring the second season of Mirzapur. He even hinted that early this year we may expect to see it.

Now if are a huge fan of Mirzapur and was eagerly waiting for its second season, then brace yourself up as the makers just confirmed about the second season of this crime series.

The makers announced the second season in much style and ease by releasing a new promo with much more drama, much more action and much more expectations. The new musical promo looks promising though.

The second season of Mirzapur tends to echo what it left behind in the previous one.It is full of valor, commotion accompanied by chaos and dialogues to die for. The music is quite different and adding itself quite well to the on screen portrayal of power in its most corrupt form.

Farhan Akhtar confirmed this news and added that he is very happy that how the global audience is accepting Indian content. This will go on floors soon and will be successfully released in over 200 countries.

So, are you excited for the second installment of your favorite gangster drama?
