Amitabh Bachchan’s tweet announcing Rishi Kapoor’s death came as a bolt from the blue. Everyone knew Rishiji was very unwell and that he had a relapse in February.

Aditi Rao Hydari - Dhanush's "duet" recorded separately

Image
This is possibly the first quarantine love duet in India. Tamil actor Dhanush and his very lovely Mumbai co-star Aditi Rao have just crooned a duet together for a forthcoming Tamil film Jail . Entitled  Kaathodu Kaathaanen ,the song composed by G V Prakash features the voices of the lead pair of the film Jail. Lekin mazey ki baat yeh hai ke , Aditi and Dhanush did not sing the “duet” together. A source in the know informs, “G V Prakash recorded with his friend Dhanush in Chennai. And then he recorded separately with Aditi in Mumbai.” We wonder how the emotions of love can be expressed in absentia! But I guess the film’s makers would know better. Incidentally neither Dhanush nor Aditi is a trained singer, though Dhanush has sung a multiple times for G V Prakash. Aditi sang with Ali Zafar in London Paris New York . But to be able to sing in Tami, which India’s greatest singer Lata Mangeshkar describes as the most difficult language she has ever sung in, is no small achievement. Also

Doctors say that Kanika Kapoor can’t donate plasma yet, here’s why

Image
Kanika Kapoor testing positive for Coronavirus was one of the biggest news this year. The pandemic has resulted in a nationwide lockdown and the internet was furious with the ‘Baby Doll’ singer for not following the protocol of self-quarantine after she returned from London. However, she was admitted soon enough in the hospital and tested negative after 16 days. During her time in the hospital, she got herself tested four times to finally test negative for the fifth time. Now, Kanika Kapor is back home with her parents in Lucknow and had given her blood to test if she was fit for the plasma therapy to help out other COVID-19 patients. The doctors have the result and they say that Kanika Kapoor’s hemoglobin levels are lower than the average required and hence, she will have to wait till the levels come to normal. Even though the samples are fit to donation, the doctor have decided to wait for a few days so that Kanika’s hemoglobin quantity is back on track. Also Read: Kanika Kapoor
