इंटरनेट पर खौफ और हैरानी, भय के टीज़र में करन टैकर का चौंकाने वाला ट्रांसफॉर्मेशन

भय – द गौरव तिवारी मिस्ट्री का टीज़र सामने आते ही इंटरनेट पर हलचल मच गई है, क्योंकि करण टैकर बिल्कुल उसी अंदाज़ में नज़र आ रहे हैं जैसे भारत के पहले पैरानॉर्मल इन्वेस्टिगेटर गौरव तिवारी थे। सोशल मीडिया पर फैंस लगातार उनकी समानता की बातें कर रहे हैं। स्पेशल ऑप्स से लेकर खाकी: द बिहार चैप्टर तक, रियल लाइफ किरदारों में घुस जाने के लिए पहचाने जाने वाले करण एक बार फिर एक जबरदस्त और डराने वाली भूमिका में लौटे हैं। मगर इस बार किरदार और भी रहस्यमयी है, दांव और भी बड़ा है और कहानी रोंगटे खड़े कर देने वाली है। गौरव तिवारी वही शख्स थे जिन्होंने भारत में ईएमएफ मीटर को पहचान दिलाई। भूतिया होटलों में, बदनाम हवेलियों में और सुनसान मंदिरों में बेखौफ घुसने वाले गौरव वहां से ऐसे जवाब लेकर लौटते थे जिन्हें जानने की हिम्मत कोई और नहीं करता था। लेकिन सिर्फ 29 साल की उम्र में उनकी मौत हो गई और आज भी उसकी वजह एक गहरा और उलझा हुआ रहस्य बनी हुई है। कई थ्योरीज़ सामने आईं, लेकिन कोई भी पूरी सच्चाई नहीं बता पाई। अब अमेज़न एमएक्स प्लेयर की आने वाली सीरीज़ भय – द गौरव तिवारी मिस्ट्री में करण टैकर इस तेज, आकर्षक और रहस्यमयी शख्सियत को परदे पर ज़िंदा करते नज़र आएंगे। यह सीरीज़ सच्ची घटनाओं से प्रेरित है। नए टीज़र में करण का ट्रांसफॉर्मेशन चौंकाने वाला है। वह गौरव की चाल, उनकी बातें और पूरा अंदाज़ इस कदर हूबहू उतारते हैं कि असली फुटेज देखने वाले लोग भी हैरान रह गए हैं। टीज़र यह भी दिखाता है कि गौरव ने देश के कुछ सबसे डरावने मामलों को सुलझाया था, लेकिन उनकी अपनी मौत ही सबसे बड़ा और अनसुलझा रहस्य बनकर रह गई। दमदार माहौल, रहस्यमयी विज़ुअल्स और बेहद सच्ची लगने वाली परफॉर्मेंस के चलते यह सीरीज़ साल की सबसे चर्चित और रोमांचक सीरीज़ बनने की पूरी तैयारी में है। शो को लेकर करण ने कहा, यह मेरी अब तक की सबसे चुनौतीपूर्ण भूमिकाओं में से एक रही है। एक ऐसे इंसान का किरदार निभाना, जो इंसानी समझ से परे एक दुनिया से जुड़ा हुआ महसूस करता था और जिसकी मौत रहस्य बनी रही, मुझे अंदर से झकझोर गया। उसकी ज़िंदगी को पर्दे पर उतारना भावनात्मक रूप से काफ़ी मुश्किल था। वह हमेशा चाहता था कि उसे याद रखा जाए और मैं शुक्रगुज़ार हूं कि उसकी कहानी का एक छोटा सा हिस्सा बन सका। जब दर्शक अभी तक करण के इस ट्रांसफॉर्मेशन से उबर भी नहीं पाए हैं, वहीं अभिनेता के कई नए और बड़े प्रोजेक्ट्स की घोषणाएं भी जल्द होने की उम्मीद है, जो उनके फैंस के लिए एक और बड़ा सरप्राइज़ साबित हो सकती हैं।

Tasveer Launches its first Event in India - Showcases Two powerhouse Oscar-Qualified Films in Mumbai India to host exclusive screenings of Holy Curse and Humans in the Loop, two critically acclaimed South Asian films running for the Oscars® Mumbai, 5th December, 2025: Tasveer, the world’s only Oscar®-qualifying South Asian film festival based out of Seattle, is bringing a special two-film showcase in Mumbai, launching its first event in India. Scheduled for 8th December 2025 at 6:30 PM, the event will feature two of its most acclaimed titles — Holy Curse, directed by Snigdha Kapoor, winner of the Tasveer Jury Award for Best Short Film 2024, and Humans in the Loop, directed by Aranya Sahay, winner of the Tasveer Audience Choice Award 2025 and currently in contention for the Oscars®. Holy Curse is the second film to qualify for the Oscars® through Tasveer, which received its accreditation in 2023. This screening marks a cultural milestone for South Asian independent cinema, bridging the gap between the creatives of India and the world platform of the United States. Co-founded by Rita Meher, Tasveer has spent 23 years spotlighting South Asian narratives, identities, and unheard voices. What began as a post-9/11 initiative challenging stereotypes has evolved into a global platform that has showcased more than 8,000 films to date. Tasveer has supported emerging filmmakers ($368,000 from 2020-2025) through the Tasveer Film Fund in partnership with Netflix, and in recent years, launched the Tasveer Film Market, acknowledged as the Only South Asian-focused film market outside South Asia. Today, Tasveer collaborates with leading entertainment powerhouses, including Netflix, NBC Universal, Amazon, MGM, WME, CAA, Waititi Productions, and others, strengthening its presence in the global independent film ecosystem. In addition to platforming new talent, Tasveer has also acquired its own theatre space that will support independent cinema with access and distribution. Tasveer is now recognised as the first organisation of colour to own a theatre in the United States, addressing long-standing inequity in access to arts infrastructure. “Stories heal, and to be able to tell those stories truthfully is revolutionary. We provide that safe space to Indian filmmakers. Our films carry courage, conflict, softness, and truth,” Rita Meher, Founder and Executive Director, Tasveer, said. “We are bringing them to Mumbai not as a full festival yet, but as an invitation, a conversation, and the beginning of a deeper cultural exchange. We hope this opens new pathways for Indian independent cinema to reach international audiences and global stages.” Representing India at the showcase, Aranya Sahay, Director of Humans in the Loop, added, “Independent filmmaking takes heart, risk, and relentlessness. Spaces like this allow films that might not find traditional commercial platforms to breathe and be seen. We are honoured to screen Humans in the Loop alongside Holy Curse, and deeply grateful to Tasveer for championing stories like ours.” Shivam Gupta, Producer, Casting Director and Partner for the Mumbai Showcase, added, “Being part of the Tasveer Film Festival in the U.S. this year was a deeply inspiring experience the energy, the curation, and the space it creates for South Asian filmmakers is exceptional. Bringing Tasveer to Mumbai in this way feels like the start of something much larger.”

National, December 2, 2025: Every mother remembers the magic of those first moments, --the first cry, the first touch, the first time she looks at her baby. Unfortunately, some mothers never experience this magic owing to conditions like birth asphyxia, which leads to untimely deaths. Johnson’s® baby, a brand which has partnered with parents for generations, has been supporting the training of healthcare workers for over 16 years by funding a Neonatal Resuscitation program (NRP) led by a leading paediatrician association. This initiative furthers its commitment to help protect babies from the first minute of their life. In India, every year 1.25 lakh newborns die within 24 hours of birth[2] owing to critical conditions like asphyxia where the newborn is unable to breathe at birth which can be life threatening as well as can cause disabilities even if the child survives.[3] Birth asphyxia is both preventable and treatable, however owing to lack of adequate training amongst healthcare professionals, this remains a big concern. The correct intervention in the first minute of birth can increase the chance of survival as much as 50%.[4] With an objective to help reduce neonatal infant mortality in India due to birth asphyxia, makers of Johnson’s® baby have been supporting a leading paediatrician association by training healthcare professionals with Neonatal Resuscitation, a standardized and evidence-based approach to newborn care. Through this program, over 2 lakh+ nurses, midwives and paediatricians have been trained with critical knowledge, essential skills, intervention techniques to better manage neonatal emergencies and save lives. Manoj Gadgil, Business Unit Head – Essential Health & Skin Health and VP Marketing, Kenvue, India, shares, “The survival of a newborn depends on correct interventions provided at the first minute of a baby’s birth. Unfortunately, these critical interventions are often compromised due to insufficient knowledge, training, and resources available to healthcare professionals. At Johnson’s® baby, we promise to protect babies not only from their first day but from the first moment. From providing high-quality products to partnering with social impact organizations, we are passionate about helping improve the lives of babies. For 16 years, we have supported1 a leading paediatrician association to train 2 lakh paediatricians, nurses and midwives in lifesaving neonatal resuscitation. We take pride in our journey, which reinforces our promise to help protect babies from their very first breath.” With an aim to create awareness around ‘Project Golden Minute - Neonatal Resuscitation’, Johnson’s® baby has launched a heart-warming digital film conceptualised by DDB Mudra which spotlights this life-saving initiative. Set in a small-town hospital, the film brings alive the birth of a newborn amidst several other new mothers. As the baby is born, instead of a joyous cry, the room is quickly filled with tension as an asphyxiated baby fails to breathe. Immediately, the healthcare worker follows the neonatal resuscitation protocols and saves the baby while the mothers unified in their support as they sing a song dedicated to celebration of birth. Siddhesh Khatavkar and Harshada Menon, Executive Creative Directors, DDB Mudra said, “For every mother, the greatest joy is hearing her baby’s first cry. Through this project, that precious first minute is being safeguarded by thousands of trained doctors, midwives, and healthcare workers. The film is a tribute both to the courage of mothers and the dedication of those who fight for every newborn’s first breath. To bring this to life, we reimagined Sohar - the traditional Indian cradle song sung to bless and protect a baby. Because saving a newborn isn’t just a medical intervention, it is an act of love.” All the stream revenues generated by listening to this song will be donated to this scaling this initiative further. Malini Awasthi, Eminent Indian Singer added, “As a folk singer, I have always believed that music has the power to connect hearts and inspire action. When Johnson’s Baby approached me to lend my voice to raise awareness about this critical initiative that saves newborn lives, I was deeply moved. What makes this initiative more special is the ode to ‘Sohar’ a traditional folk song sung by women to celebrate the birth of a child. The first cry of a baby is a song of hope, and through this initiative we celebrate the birth of life. It is my humble effort to ensure that no parent has to endure the heartbreak of losing a child due to a lack of timely intervention.” Johnson’s® baby is planning a public awareness initiative across multiple touchpoints including engaging mum influencers, in-cinemas advertising with PVR Cinemas. · Campaign Film link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAwvHXnEGe4 · ‘Pahila Saans--Johnson's baby x Malini Awasthi:
