#MeToo wave started in Bollywood last year and impacted the fate of many stars and films. Sajid Khan and Nana Patekar were thrown out of Housefull 4, Hrithik Roshan starrer Super 30 got delayed due to allegations against the director Vikas Bahl and Alok Nath was expelled by CINTAA.
But even after a strict action against celebs including Alok, he has been seen in the recently released trailer of De De Pyaar De which stars Ajay Devgn, Rakulpreet and Tabu in lead roles.
The trailer was released today on the occasion of Ajay’s birthday but instead of getting appreciation, the trailer and the team is being slammed by people. The reason is obvious – Presence of #MeToo accused Alok Nath in the film.
Netizens haven’t taken his presence in the film kindly and have slammed it on Twitter. Have a look at some of the reactions-

While women continue to be disbelieved, ridiculed and shoved back into silence, men accused of sexual violence continue to find work. @ajaydevgn@itsBhushanKumar I hope you know Alok Nath has been accused of rape and an FIR filed. Disgusting that he’s part of De De Pyar De.
Shame on @ajaydevgn for defending Alok Nath. They could have given him the boot post the allegations & FIR. I hate when celebs say "this is not the right platform to discuss". Issues such as this deserved to be discussed on every platform. #DeDePyaarDeTrailer@IndiaMeToohttps://t.co/fA5DGDOczq
Didn't know that people are okay with watching a rape-accused's movie. Now I do. Also, the mental gymnastics men will perform to defend other men is fantastic. Why? Alok Nath tumhare rishtedar lagte hai kya? #DeDePyaarDe#DeDePyaarDeTrailerpic.twitter.com/i7rzNwUmhi
#DeDePyaarDeTrailer is looks entertaining stuffs. But why #Metoo accused people like Luv Ranjan and Alok Nath are still getting to work? Why so much outrage for Vikas Bahl only? Not for them now? Why so much hypocrisy?
Several bald and sanskari looking men NOT YET accused of rape who could have been cast in @ajaydevgn@itsBhushanKumar movie instead of Alok Nath.
But the pro-rape/ anti-women bias shows now.
Guess what? Sanskari Alok Nath who was mentioned in #MeToo is in #DeDePyaarDe and no one is talking about it but imagine if he was in a Salman film there would've been debates going on tv channels and all over social media blaming Salman khan for it hypocrites
I enjoyed the #DeDePyaarDeTrailer, but WHY IS ALOK NATH BEING GIVEN WORK!!!!! WHEN IS THIS GOING TO STOP! This man has harassed and molested women, and has in all probability committed rape. But we will STILL give him work, we will STILL cast him.
When Ajay Devgn was asked about the same at the trailer launch event, he said that it’s not a right place to talk about it. He further added that the film was completed before the allegations surfaced against Alok Nath.
After a string of Bollywood stars launching their kids in Bollywood, it seems SRK’s son Aaryan is now ready to make his entry. According to the reports of a leading entertainment website, SRK’s best friend and popular filmmaker, Karan Johar will launch Aaryan with his upcoming film Takht.
But if you think that Aaryan will be seen in the film as one of the lead actors then you need to read more. Reportedly, Aaryan is more interested in filmmaking then acting and thus he will be starting as an Assistant Director with Takht.
In an earlier interview, SRK had said that Aaryan wants to be a filmmaker and writer and is studying for it. However, he needs to study for another 5 or 6 years as an assistant director to Karan, he said.
Now if nothing, this statement of SRK could well turn out to be true if Aaryan indeed starts as a filmmaker for Takht.
Takht stars Vicky Kaushal, Ranveer Singh, Alia Bhatt, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Bhumi Pednekar, Janhvi Kapoor and Anil Kapoor in lead and is scheduled to release in 2020.
Year 2017 and 2018 have been pretty bad for Kapil Sharma where he lost an important team member Sunil Grover, fell into the alcohol addiction and also lost his popular TV comedy show.
By the end of 2018, he started getting over all the problems as he produced a successful Punjabi film and then married the love of his life Ginni Chatrath. By the start of 2019, he also came back with the new season of The Kapil Sharma Show which is running successfully now.
Now that Kapil is in a happy space, he opened his heart and talked about his infamous fight with Sunil Grover.
While speaking at the Arbaaz Khan’s show, Kapil refused that he ever threw his shoe on Sunil. He said that he never threw a shoe on Sunil and also denied getting angry over team members for having a meal before him. Kapil thoroughly denied the event and said that all of this was cooked up. Asking if he looks like doing this, Kapil said that he didn’t confirm the reports and not even Sunil confirmed them. Some third person narrated the story and 4th person wrote the articles and people started judging him.
When asked about Sunil’s long Twitter message, Kapil said that I replied to him 6-7 times. Talking about Sunil’s allegations that Kapil didn’t call him, he said that he called him many times. However, Kapil realised later that maybe Sunil doesn’t want to come back to him. Kapil said that he has now learnt to not bare their heart in front of the public.
Talking about his depression period, Kapil said that he used to drink a lot and when you are not in your senses you do wrong things. Talking about abusing the journalist, he asked why he abused only one among all when everyone was writing negative stories about him. He himself answered and said that he wrote 160 negative articles about him in last 6 months.
Kapil also denied arriving late on the show which led to the cancellation of the episodes. He said that the format of the show was such that he can never come late. He accepted that shoots got cancelled but asked why back to back articles? He even said that he knew why the journo was doing it and who told him to write the articles and thatswhy he had to show the anger.
The Desi girl of Bollywood, Priyanka Chopra got married to American singer-actor Nick Jonas last year in December and everything seemed to be going great for the couple as whenever they were caught in public limelight, they gave an impression of being madly in love with each other.
However, a US-based magazine created a storm when it published an article in which it claimed that the couple is heading for divorce as they are fighting a lot and almost about everything whether it is related to work, party or living together.
Now PeeCee’s representative has said that there is no truth in this article and has also given an indication that the couple is thinking of an expensive defamation suit against the magazine. According to the representative, Priyanka is in no mood to forgive the magazine this time and she will ask her legal team to make sure that the publication comes down on their knees.
Talking about the article, the magazine stated that Priyanka and Nick decided to tie the knot in haste and now they are suffering because of it. The article further claimed that the family of Nick Jonas is asking him desperately to end this marriage as earlier they considered Priyanka a mature woman who wanted to settle and have kids but they were wrong.
However, the article was taken down by the magazine after it got badly slammed by Nickyanka’s fans. Earlier, Priyanka’s cousin Parineeti Chopra called the article baseless and terrible.
Another source close to the actress said that these are rumours or false stories which are made up for increasing the sales of the magazine. The source further said that if the magazine did all this as a prank on April Fool’s day, it was quite a terrible one and they might need to pay heavily for it.
