कर्णिका ने अपने करियर की शुरुआत टेलीविजन से की थी और Ekta Kapoor के कई लोकप्रिय धारावाहिकों में काम किया। इसके बाद उनके म्यूजिक एल्बम "Waqt Tham Sa Gaya" और "O Sanam Mere Sanam" रिलीज हुए, जबकि उनका गाना "Pori Hum Jayenge Nalasopara" सोशल मीडिया पर वायरल हो गया। उन्होंने फिल्म "Shubh Ratri" से बॉलीवुड में कदम रखा और बाद में साउथ इंडस्ट्री में Ravi Teja, Nani और Kalyan Ram जैसे बड़े सितारों के साथ काम किया। जनवरी 2025 में रिलीज फिल्म "Love Is Forever" ने उन्हें नई पहचान दिलाई।
फिल्म ‘YANA...?’ की स्टारकास्ट भी बेहद मजबूत है, जिसमें सुमन तलवार,गणेश यादव , अवतार गिल , प्रदीप काबरा , पंकज बेरी , आशीष सिंह , आर्या बब्बर,जगतपती बाबू जैसे कलाकार शामिल हैं। साथ ही महेश मंजरेकर फिल्म में स्पेशल अपीयरेंस में नजर आएंगे।
फिल्म का निर्देशन Mr.R. Prajapati कर रहे हैं, जो अपने विजन और खास निर्देशन शैली के लिए जाने जाते हैं। कहानी Rahul Prajapati ने लिखी है, जबकि स्क्रीनप्ले और डायलॉग्स पिंकू दुबे और सोनू डंडोरिया ने तैयार किए हैं। फिल्म का निर्माण Soft Touch Entertainment द्वारा किया जा रहा है, जो प्रोडक्शन क्वालिटी पर खास ध्यान दे रही है।
शूटिंग के दौरान सेट पर कलाकारों के बीच बेहतरीन तालमेल देखने को मिल रहा है, जिससे फिल्म के सीन और भी प्रभावशाली बन रहे हैं। फिल्म के लोकेशन भी काफी आकर्षक हैं, जो इसे एक भव्य विजुअल अपील देते हैं। वहीं फिल्म का गीत "Mahakal" रिलीज से पहले ही चर्चा में है और दर्शकों के बीच उत्सुकता बढ़ा रहा है।

Youngest Indian at Cannes 22-Year-Old Karen Kshiti Suvarna Movie SEPTEMBER 21 World Premiere at 79th Cannes Film Festival
SEPTEMBER 21, the debut feature from 22-year-old writer-director Karen Kshiti Suvarna, will have its world premiere on May 16, 2026 at 5:45 PM at the Palais Theatre, as part of Marché du Film at Festival de Cannes 2026.
Shot in Hindi and Kannada, the film centers on Alzheimer’s disease through the fractured relationship of a father and son. The father, living with dementia, believes his wife is quarantined next door due to COVID-19. His estranged son returns home, forced to choose between personal ambition and duty.
“The struggles faced by caregivers are much greater than the struggles faced by Alzheimer’s patients,”says Suvarna. _SEPTEMBER 21_ shifts focus to the unseen emotional toll on families, using silence and restraint as its primary language.
Pravin Singh Sisodia leads as the Alzheimer’s patient, delivering a performance of quiet devastation. The ensemble includes Priyanka Upendra, Zarina Wahab, Ajith Shidhaye, and Amit Behl.
Produced by Visica Films, FMD Productions, and HumaraMovie with Filmsmax, the project is endorsed by the Alzheimer’s and Related Disorders Society of India (ARDSI). The film is written by Rajshekhar & Music by Vinayy Chandraa.
HumaraMovie, partnered by Preety Ali, wife of Bollywood director Imtiaz Ali, has previously backed festival titles _Follower_ and _Tortoise Under the Earth_. Visica Films is known for emotionally driven independent narratives.
Karen Kshiti Suvarna, 22, marks one of the youngest Indian directors to debut at Cannes. Her approach favors emotional gravity over exposition. “I wanted the audience to feel that silence and emotional weight,” she says.
The film’s selection for Marché du Film signals its universal resonance. Cannes has long championed debut voices that challenge social narratives, and _SEPTEMBER 21_ positions Alzheimer’s and caregiving within that global conversation.

Prankster Nikhil’s Bushman Act Leaves Akshay Kumar and Audience in Splits on Wheel of Fortune
16th April 2026, Mumbai: On Wheel of Fortune, a fun-filled moment unfolded as contestant Nikhil brought his journey as a prank content creator to the stage.
While interacting with host Akshay Kumar and fellow contestants Akshay and Purva, Nikhil shared how he started doing pranks from a young age and eventually turned it into content creation. He spoke about introducing bushman-style pranks in India and gaining rapid popularity, reaching 100K followers in just 45 days.
When asked if he had ever faced trouble while pranking, Nikhil recalled an incident from Powai. Dressed as a bushman, he was hiding behind a bush to scare a passerby when a dog suddenly approached him and lifted its leg nearby. The unexpected moment left everyone amused. As he continued with the prank and revealed himself, both the dog and the passerby ran away, turning the entire situation into a burst of laughter for the audience and Akshay Kumar.
Reacting to the story, Akshay Kumar shared his perspective on pranking, saying, “This is just to make people laugh. I think we should all be very supportive and try to understand what this man is trying to do. Jab tak aap ye prank se kisi ko physically hurt nahi kar rahe, kisi ko emotionally hurt nahi kar rahe, tab tak theek hai. Agar kisi ko lage, toh I think you should say sorry.”
With this thoughtful take, Akshay Kumar struck a perfect balance between entertainment and responsibility. His words highlighted the importance of being mindful while creating content, reinforcing that humour should never come at the cost of someone’s well-being. The segment combined humour with a thoughtful message, highlighting both the lighter and responsible side of pranking.

Sa Re Ga Ma Pa fame Abhijeet Ghoshal announces Shiv Tandav Club Mix, says 'I wanted a version people stay with till the end'
As devotional music evolves with changing listener habits, younger audiences are seeking formats that feel more immediate, energetic and immersive—where faith is not just heard, but felt. On the occasion of Masik Shivratri, Sa Re Ga Ma Pa fame Abhijeet Ghoshal announces his latest track, Shiv Tandav Club Mix, a powerful, high-energy reimagining of the Shiv Tandav Stotra.
Interestingly, the roots of this composition go back to his school days. “I first worked on a version of Shiv Tandav when I was in Class 11. It stayed with me over the years, and I released that a few years back” he shares. “This new Clubmix version is a continuation of that journey, but with a sound that reflects who I am today.”
The idea, he says, came from observing how audiences engage with devotional music today. “In many shows, I noticed people only sing the first few lines and then lose that connection. I kept asking myself—why can’t we create something that people stay with till the end, something they can hum, relate to and truly be a part of?” He adds, “This isn’t just a remix, it’s a way to help people feel devotion fully.”
Blending fast-paced beats, layered chorus sections of Har Har Mahadev, and contemporary production, the track is designed to be both intense and accessible. “Shiv Tandav is already filled with energy,” Ghoshal explains. “I just wanted to present that energy in a way today’s listeners can instantly connect with. Not change it, just bring it closer to them.”
Building on the strong response to his earlier Club Mix Hanuman Chalisa, which resonated with young listeners for its fresh, high-energy take on a traditional chant, Ghoshal continues to shape a distinct space in modern devotional music. He believes “When music makes you feel something strongly, that’s when the connection happens. Devotion doesn’t have to be still. It can move with you, grow with you and become a part of your everyday rhythm.”
