GURUGRAM: Police of three states joined hands to rescue a Madurai-based businessman and his assistant who were kidnapped soon after landing at the Delhi airport on July 7. Five of the kidnappers were arrested on Friday night from a house in Delhi’s Shyam Nagar, where they had held the businessman and his assistant hostage for two days. KS Vilvapathy, who deals in textiles, and his assistant, Vinod Kumar, came to Delhi after one of the accused identified himself as a trader and promised to help them strike a deal with a garment factory in Bangladesh. Soon after landing in Delhi on Thursday, one of the kidnappers – Jiravni Babu – received Vilvapathy and Kumar at the IGI airport and they boarded the car he had brought along.

Gurgaon: Even though the rain clouds eluded the city on Saturday, cloudy skies with pleasant breeze during the day brought relief for residents, who have been stewing in sultry weather for the past few days.

After completing the shooting schedule of her Hollywood debut film ‘Heart Of Stone’ in the UK, Alia Bhatt returned to Mumbai sometime back. The paparazzi clicked her pictures as she arrived at the airport. Wearing a loose white with a matching jacket over it and black loose pants, the mommy-to-be opted for comfy attire for her arrival in the city. The actress was flaunting her baby bump as she walked the premises of the airport. Alia’s actor-husband Ranbir Kapoor was waiting in his car to pick up his wifey at the airport. As soon as Alia got in the car, the actress hopped onto RK and hugged him tightly. Check out the pictures and videos here: Yesterday, the actress announced that she has wrapped up ‘Heart Of Stone’ co-starring Gal Gadot and Jamie Dornan. However, the actress was more excited to return home than the completion of her film. She expressed the same in her caption which read, “”Heart of Stone – you have my wholeeeeeee heart Thank you to the beautiful @gal_gadot .. my

Trolls shaming Malaika Arora get schooled

Image
Malaika Arora is a fitness inspiration and her athleisure has its own fan following. On Friday, the actress stepped out wearing a cropped tank top and snug tights in nude colour. The neutral tone athleisure, which is a legit trend launched by a popular sports brand, didn’t impress the internet. From calling her ‘shameless’ to ‘buddhi’ and an ‘attention seeker’, the actress was brutally trolled on Instagram. Take a look at some of the jabs Malaika faced and our befitting replies: “Buddhi kahin ki” Using a disrespectful term like ‘buddhi’ for an actress, producer and entrepreneur who has earned a name for herself is callous behaviour. Malaika is a fitness inspiration at 48 and motivates 15 millions followers on Instagram on a daily basis. Instead of shallow, name-calling, why not adopt a more welcoming attitude? “Isko kitni attention chahiye yaar !! Wearing such outfits on purpose” She owns the attention thanks to her popularity and definitely doesn’t need to resort to ‘outfits’

At tree fest, first nagar vans take root

Image
Gurgaon: Work on three ‘nagar vans’ (city forests) in Haryana began on Friday, with plantation drives at the proposed sites in Gurgaon, Faridabad and Palwal. The move came with the state celebrating ‘Hariyali Mahotsav’ (tree festival), with the aim of creating awareness about trees and their significance and inculcating ideas on forest conservation. Each ‘nagar van’ covers 10-50 hectares of land. In Gurgaon, officials are developing a 40-hectare land in Ghata as a ‘nagar van’. They are similarly developing a 10-hectare land at NIT, Sector 4, in Faridabad and a 33-hectare land in Palwal. The ‘nagar vans’ are for increasing the green cover and improving the air quality in the region. “As part of the ‘Hariyali Mahotsav’, saplings have been sown at 27 sites in south Haryana, including the three nagar vans. The saplings used came from native species. After the ceremony, we gave out fruit plants to children, which they will plant in their homes or neighbourhoods,” said Vasavi Taygi,

Alia on how her relationship with RK started

Well, everyone out there knows that Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt fell in love with each other while they were shooting for ‘Brahmastra’. Now, in her recent appearance on Karan Johar’s popular talk show, the actress elaborated on how it all started. During the candid conversation, Alia revealed that everything started due to a faulty plane seat. The actress shared that on New Year’s Eve, the duo took a flight to Tel Aviv to attend a workshop and Ranbir sat next to her. However, there was some issue with the seat, so he was moved to another seat. After it was fixed, he came back to sit next to Alia. While Ranbir was away, Alia was thinking about why her dream is getting shattered and was getting irritated as he had to sit away from Alia.

‘Salman’s niece Alizeh’s debut to be unconventional’

Image
The next few months are going to see an influx of new talent in Bollywood. The latest in the list of actors and actresses who are going to debut is Salman Khan’s niece and Atul Agnihotri’s daughter, Alizeh Agnihotri. The young lady will feature in a film produced by her father. ETimes had reported earlier this year that the film will be directed by filmmaker Somendra Padhi, who’s made the critically acclaimed Jamtara for OTT. The most interesting part here is that this yet untitled film is not going to be a typical debutante launch. The focus will not be just on a single heroine but the story is going to be youth-centric and this will be a film with a lot of newcomers. Speaking to ETimes, Padhi said, “We will announce the film after the rest of the cast is locked in. That is when we will be ready to go on floor.” Alizeh has acted before in her father’s film Hello from 2008. The other most notable film to feature a lot of newcomers is Zoya Akhtar’s The Archies and those in the know

GURUGRAM: The MCG’s drive against unauthorised advertisements started on Wednesday. The civic body removed all advertisements, especially put up by realtors without taking its permission along Golf Course road and Golf Course Road Extension. “Several unauthorised advertisements were displayed on unipoles, billboards and electrical poles. The illegal advertisers also included big brands and builders who have not taken permission from the MCG. We covered Golf Course Road, Maidawas Road and Golf Course Road Extension on Wednesday.

Generics of MSD diabetes pill set to flood market as patent expires

Image
The oral anti-diabetes drug market is in for a major shake-up as Merck, Sharp & Dohme’s (MSD’s) Januvia is expected to go off patent this month. According to market research firm AIOCD, at least 50 Indian drug makers are jumping into the fray with around 100 generic versions of the popular anti-diabetes medication, leading to a likely price war. Analysts expect prices to drop by 60% with the entry of generics, and intensify competition for vildagliptin and teneligliptin, two molecules of the same class that went off-patent in 2019 and 2015, respectively. Januvia – which goes by the generic name sitagliptin – comes under the class of dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP4) inhibitors. MSD also sells a fixed dose combination of sitagliptin and metformin under the brand name Janumet. also markets sitagliptin and a sitagliptin-metformin combination in India under licence from MSD. The current market for sitagliptin and its combinations are around ₹1,000 crore, which is 10% of India’s oral a

GURUGRAM: Four years after it was launched, the 21km elevated road from the Gurugram-Delhi Expressway to Sohna, one of the largest infrastructure projects in Delhi-NCR, finally has an inauguration date – July 11. Union road, transport and highways minister Nitin Gadkari will inaugurate the six-lane Sohna Elevated Road next Monday, Gurugram MP and Union minister Rao Inderjit Singh announced on Wednesday. The entire stretch can be opened to commuters since work on a 9km portion of the elevated road between Rajiv Chowk and Badshapur finished this week.

Road accidents along the stretch will also reduce because of this project,” Inderjit said. The elevated road gives commuters a signal-free corridor bypassing junctions such as Vatika

Panel led by CM to review 74 vigilance complaints in MCG

Image
Gurgaon: A high-powered committee against corruption chaired by Haryana CM Manohar Lal Khattar will review the status of 74 vigilance complaints pending in MCG on Thursday. The complaints include the alleged construction and demolition (C&D) waste scam and unauthorised construction across the city in connivance with some MCG officials, TOI has learnt. Also, the complaint against the private firm managing the C&D waste plant in Basai for allegedly violating the terms of agreement is likely to be taken up. Some of these complaints were filed in 2019. MCG commissioner Mukesh Kumar Ahuja said, “We start an investigation as soon as we receive a complaint. A majority of the complaints that will be discussed on Thursday are related to enforcement like illegal vendors putting up carts in the designated street vending zones, encroachments of MCG or government land and poor construction quality of community centres. We’ll share the status report of the ongoing probes.” A number of co

Will Tigmanshu direct Dabangg 4 for Salman?

Image
Salman Khan is going to return to the Dabangg franchise with its fourth instalment. It has been widely reported that the film is well on its way and that filmmaker Tigmanshu Dhulia has been writing a script for quite some time now. But, a source close to the project spoke to ETimes and revealed, “It is true that Tigmanshu Dhulia is writing the script and he may even end up directing it.” It was during the promotion of Antim that Salman Khan had mentioned that he plans to start Dabangg 4 by the end of 2022. In the past few months, we’ve been informed that Salman is pretty happy with the way Tigmanshu has been crafting the story and screenplay of the fourth film in the franchise. That’s why, there’s a strong chance that Salman may actually insist on Tigmanshu directing the film. He might just be the best and ideal person to pull off all the thrills and spills of Chulbul Pandey’s adventure. Tigmanshu has in the past directed such rustic gems like Paan Singh Tomar and the Saheb Biwi Au

Madhubala, The neglected superstar: Celebs speak out

Image
On Sunday, we brought you an interview with Madhur Bhushan (embedded below), the sister of the evergreen icon Madhubala, advocating that her apa (as she fondly called her sis) deserves a biopic and Bharat Ratna both. Said Madhur Bhushan, with a strong tinge of complaint in her voice, “It’s been 53 years since my sister passed away, why couldn’t anyone hold one event in her memory? Why couldn’t one organisation give her a posthumous award? Why has there been no recognition awarded to her? Why wasn’t she ever considered for a Bharat Ratna? Everyone says she was so beautiful and talented. Her beauty cannot be emulated. But if she was so special, why didn’t anyone come forward and show her some recognition, why didn’t anyone facilitate her or celebrate her legacy? Bollywood played a huge role in making Madhubala. It was Hindi cinema’s directors like K Asif, Mehboob Khan, Kedar Sharma and stars like Dev Anand and Raj Kapoor who helped make her career. We can’t ignore that. But we also can’t

Municipal Corporation of Gurugram looks for firms to take recycled waste to factories

Image
Gurgaon: The MCG is planning to empanel agencies for the transportation of refuse derived fuel (RDF), inert —concrete and sand — and fine material produced after bio-mining the legacy waste at Bandhwari landfill site. The officials said that at present there is 50,000 tonnes of RDF accumulated at the landfill site, which needs to be transported to power plants, cement factories etc. where it can be utilised. “We have already floated a tender to empanel agencies for transportation of materials left behind at the site after waste processing,” said Mandeep Singh, executive engineer of MCG. Meanwhile, an MCG official said that they have sought permission from the department of urban local bodies (ULB) to hire one more firm to process two lakh tonnes of waste at Bandhwari. The ULB had stopped the tendering process to clear waste from Bandhwari landfill site in January this year, due to which bio-mining was not taking place. However, the department recently gave nod to a private agency,

Immune response triggered by COVID-19 infection can damage brain

Image
A study from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) said the immune response triggered by COVID-19 infection can damage the brain’s blood vessels and may lead to short- and long-term neurological symptoms. In a study published in Brain, researchers from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) examined brain changes in nine people who died suddenly after contracting the virus. The scientists found evidence that antibodies–proteins produced by the immune system in response to viruses and other invaders–are involved in an attack on the cells lining the brain’s blood vessels, leading to inflammation and damage. Consistent with an earlier study from the group, SARS-CoV-2 was not detected in the patients’ brains, suggesting the virus was not infecting the brain directly. Understanding how SARS-CoV-2 can trigger brain damage may help inform development of therapies for COVID-19 patients who have lingering neurological symptoms, according to NIH. “Patients oft
