Why the tension arose?

Tension in the Middle East increased after the United States and Israel launched strikes on Iran on Saturday. Later, Iran said it carried out an attack targeting Israel and a US military facility in Bahrain. After this, explosions were reported in places like Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Qatar, and Kuwait. The situation became serious across the region.

On the work front, Vishnu Manchu was last seen in the big‑budget mythological epic, ‘Kannappa,’ in a titular role. He plays the character of an atheist hunter who gradually turns into one of Lord Shiva’s most devoted bhaktas.Get the latest entertainment updates from the Times of India, along with the latest Hindi movies, upcoming Hindi movies in 2026 , and Telugu movies.”
