Amid the massive success of Dhurandhar 2, casting director Mukesh Chhabra has sparked fresh debate by revealing the film’s most satisfying casting choice—and it’s neither Ranveer Singh nor Akshaye Khanna. His insight shifts the spotlight onto a performance that quietly stole the film, proving that sometimes the real star isn’t the biggest name, but the most impactful presence on screen.

A controversy has erupted after an “unflattering” photo of White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was reportedly removed from major photo archives, sparking debate over media control and public transparency. The image, captured during an official White House press briefing, showed Leavitt smiling while holding her son, with a turkey named “Waddle” also in the frame. What appeared to be a simple moment quickly went viral due to the low-angle shot, raising questions about how images of public figures are selected, shared, and sometimes removed.
