Pune Land Disputes: Bridge Water Realty Faces Multiple Probe In ₹17 Cr Fraud Case & POA Misuse Allegations Multiple legal proceedings are underway against Ranjeet Darak and Nitin Chavan of Bridge Water Realty LLP over alleged fraud and document manipulation linked to land parcels in Lohgaon and Vadgaonsheri. In the Lohgaon case, the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) has registered an FIR based on a complaint by Subodh Runwal, Director of Runwal Enterprises Ltd, alleging a ₹17 crore fraud. The dispute traces back to a 2007 joint venture with the late Satish Mittal, where Runwal Enterprises paid a ₹10 crore refundable deposit and spent over ₹7 crore on developing the land. After Mittal’s death, his heirs Meenadevi Satish Mittal, Ashish Satish Mittal, Kavita Ankush Agarwal and Nitin Satish Mittal, are alleged to have transferred development rights to Bridge Water Realty LLP without settling Runwal Enterprises’ dues or honouring the original agreement. Investigators have noted that Runwal Enterprises continues to remain in physical possession of the land, with site checks confirming its presence on the ground. The probe has also flagged alleged irregularities such as unauthorised transfer of rights, use of questionable documents to change utility connections and threats made to the company. The police have filed charges related to cheating, conspiracy and forgery, and the investigation is underway. In a separate case in Vadgaonsheri, a complaint by Jagdish Galande alleges misuse of a limited Power of Attorney (POA) for ancestral land. He claims the accused used the POA beyond its scope to execute a fresh exchange deed without consent, altering key terms and attaching documents without approval. The complaint also raises concerns over alleged forged signatures. A civil suit has been filed seeking cancellation of the documents and a halt on any development activity. Both criminal and civil proceedings are pending in court. Last month, Bombay High Court had set aside an ex-parte order of the Pune District Court that had restricted Runwal Enterprises from dealing with the Lohgaon land. The Court had observed that the earlier order was passed without notice or proper reasoning and had directed both sides to maintain status quo while the matter is heard again.

The additions take the company’s cumulative mandates secured since listing to ₹4,647 crore, while its executable mandate position now stands at ₹6,272 crore, a forward inventory base that underscores the structural scalability of its mandate-led operating model. Commenting on the announcement, Pushpamitra Das, Founder, Chairman & Managing Director, Justo RealFintech Ltd., said: “The Indian residential market is moving decisively away from fragmented distribution towards governed, outcome-linked sales partnerships. Developers are no longer buying reach, they are buying certainty of pricing discipline, velocity and cash flow. A 50% expansion in our executable inventory in just nine months since listing, a cumulative mandate book of over ₹4,600 crore and an executable position of ₹6,272 crore are direct reflections of that shift. Justo's mandate is to convert inventory into predictable revenue at scale, and we are building the operating architecture to do precisely that - quarter after quarter.” The latest cohort of mandates is anchored by partnerships with established developers including Malpani Estates, Sneha Constructions, Mohid Constructions Co., Ravi Developments, BB Square, South Field Realty and Kakkad-Shah Promoters LLP. Collectively, these projects represent approximately 900 units and over 7.7 lakh sq. ft. of saleable area, balanced across mid-income and premium price points in two of India's deepest residential demand pools.

*Rajeev Khandelwal Reveals a Hidden Chapter of His Acting Journey* *04th May, 2026, Mumbai*: On *Tum Ho Naa – Ghar Ki Superstar*, *Rajeev Khandelwal* offered a rare and deeply personal glimpse into his creative process, leaving everyone intrigued with this candid revelation. While interacting with contestant Purva, a dancer, Rajeev Khandelwal opened up about how he developed his sense of performance over time. Reflecting on his early days, he revealed that he used to closely observe other actors and then go back to his room to imitate them, trying to understand if he could perform the same way and how he would look doing it. He shared, _“Jab main logon ko dekhta tha, toh main khud jaa ke apne room mein thoda-bahut aisa sochta tha ki main bhi aisa kar sakta hoon, koshish karta tha ki main bhi aisa dekh sakta hoon. Toh yeh na ek naturally hota hai kyunki dancers… for example, mujhe yeh dancing mein kabhi nahi hua, woh jab bulate the toh main woh hi chaar step kar liye ya kuch thoda-thoda copy kar liya.”_ This honest confession highlighted how Rajeev, despite being a celebrated performer today, once relied on observation and imitation to understand his own on-screen presence, something that doesn’t always come instinctively, even to the most seasoned actors. Taking the conversation forward, Rajeev turned the spotlight onto Purva, asking whether dancing came naturally to her. In response, she shared that it indeed does, adding that when any art form, be it acting or dancing, comes naturally, it enhances the overall expression and makes it feel more authentic. With this interaction, Rajeev not only connected with the contestant on a deeper level but also revealed a lesser-known side of his journey, making the moment both insightful and inspiring. _*Watch Tum Ho Naa, hosted by Rajeev Khandelwal, Monday to Friday at 9 PM only on Sony Entertainment Television & Sony LIV.*_

Filmmaker Aushim Khetarpal Lights the “Baton of Peace & Unity” Torch Aushim Khetarpal Honoured for Representing the “Baton of Peace & Unity” Initiative Arunachalam, Tiruvannamalai | May 1, 2026: At the sacred land of Tiruvannamalai, filmmaker and actor Aushim Khetarpal was honoured with a spiritual leadership recognition during the 17th Annual Spiritual Festival held at Arunachalam. The honour was conferred by revered saints and spiritual leaders in recognition of his contributions to films, television, and social welfare initiatives that promote spiritual awareness and humanitarian values. The “Baton of Peace & Unity,” associated with the Sai Baba Peace Awards, was first initiated in October last year at Vatican City by the Pope. The torch then travelled to the Mahatma Gandhi Foundation in South Africa, followed by Dallas (USA), where one of the largest statues of Sai Baba is स्थापित. From there, it moved through Amrita Maa and the Mother Teresa Foundation before arriving at the sacred Arunachalam in Tiruvannamalai. In the presence of over 100 saints and spiritual leaders, the torch was ceremonially lit by Aushim Khetarpal, marking a proud and significant moment. It is a rare honour for an Indian filmmaker and social contributor to represent this global initiative dedicated to peace, unity, and humanity. The event was organised under the guidance of Swamy Sai Ravichandran by Akshaya Sri Sai Dhyana Sabai Temple in devotion to Sai Baba. Thousands of devotees participated in the sacred Girivalam (parikrama), symbolising faith, service, and spiritual unity. Speaking on the occasion, Aushim Khetarpal said, “In today’s world, there is an urgent need for peace. Initiatives like the ‘Baton of Peace & Unity’ and the Sai Baba Peace Awards carry immense significance. Lighting this sacred torch on the holy land of Arunachala is both a proud and deeply spiritual experience for me.” Aushim Khetarpal is widely known for his work in films and television, especially projects based on Sai Baba and Baba Ramdevsa Pir. For over three decades, he has been using cinema as a medium to spread spiritual awareness and social messages. His upcoming film “Children of God” is an inspirational coming-of-age social drama that highlights important themes such as LGBTQIA+ identity, human rights, and self-acceptance. The film is scheduled for release in theatres on June 19. The festival also featured a series of sacred rituals, including homam, abhishekam, aarti, nama sankeertanam, and bhajans. In the true spirit of service, large-scale charitable initiatives such as distribution of clothes to saints, annadaan (food donation), and community meals were conducted, reflecting the timeless message: “Sabka Malik Ek.” The event stood not only as a spiritual celebration but also as a meaningful step toward promoting unity, compassion, and humanity on a global scale.

Known for seamlessly balancing performance and writing, she steps into a pivotal on-screen role in the Aamir Khan Productions film, starring alongside Junaid Khan and Sai Pallavi. With her distinctive and fresh presence, Chakori brings a unique energy to the project, which is already generating buzz as a heartfelt and nuanced romantic drama. In the film, Chakori essays the role of Meenu, an observant and sharp office-goer who works alongside the lead characters and shares a unique dynamic with her counterpart Monu, two characters conceived almost like twins in spirit.

I auditioned for it, going through several rounds before I finally got the part. I’m extremely thankful and grateful to her, not just for this project, but because she is also someone I consider my mentor. She has trained and taught me at drama school. My experience working with Junaid and Sai Pallavi was also truly amazing, we had a lot of fun on set. Junaid is incredibly intelligent, empathetic, and very collaborative as a co-actor, which made the entire process feel seamless. Sai, on the other hand, is such a graceful and inspiring performer, there’s so much to learn just by observing her. Working with both of them was not only comfortable but also creatively fulfilling. It feels like a dream come true to have worked with Aamir Khan Productions, and I would love to collaborate with them again.” Recalling one of her most memorable experiences from the shoot, she further adds, “Shooting in Japan was absolutely breathtaking. It was snowing, and dancing on the streets of Japan to a Bollywood song like ‘Konichiwa’ was surreal. I’ve grown up watching such moments in Hindi films, and to experience it firsthand, with locals watching us, was truly special. I feel grateful for this film and all the experiences that came with it.” As Ek Din gears up for its theatrical release on May 1, Chakori Dwivedi continues to build momentum across both acting and writing. Wearing multiple creative hats, she seamlessly balances her journey as an actor and writer, most recently working as a lyricist on Tu Yaa Main, featuring Adarsh Gourav and Shanaya Kapoor.

Tu Paas Thi…” Music Video Captures the Pain of Unfinished Love, Introduces Taniya Aacharya The upcoming music video “Tu Paas Thi…” brings a deeply emotional take on modern-day love, capturing a moment where two people meet for the last time — not because they want to part, but because life leaves them with no other choice. Directed by Deepali Meena, the project introduces Taniya Aacharya alongside actor Sunil Meena, who has earlier appeared in several television shows including StarPlus’ Anupamaa, crime dramas, and various screen projects. Unlike typical romantic narratives built on betrayal or conflict, “Tu Paas Thi…” revolves around two individuals who still love each other and wish to stay together, but are pulled apart by circumstances beyond their control. Their final meeting becomes a space filled with unspoken words, lingering emotions, and the weight of everything they cannot change. The teaser hints at a heartbreaking, intimate tone — where silence speaks louder than dialogues, and every glance carries the heaviness of a goodbye neither of them is ready to accept. It portrays love not as something that ends, but something that continues to live within memories, even after people walk separate paths. Visually, the music video adopts a cinematic yet grounded approach, with Director of Photography Siya Dynamic crafting frames that enhance the emotional depth while keeping the storytelling raw and real. Produced under Deepkraft Production and presented by Deepkraft Music, the project aims to resonate with audiences through its honest portrayal of love — where two hearts remain connected, even when life refuses to let them stay together. With its restrained storytelling and relatable emotion, “Tu Paas Thi…” stands as a reflection of those relationships that never truly end — they simply remain unfinished. The music video is scheduled to release on May 11, 2026, on the Deepkraft Productions YouTube channel.

Adarkar shared, “‘Rajni Ki Baraat’ is not just a wedding story, it’s a statement. It’s about a young woman who celebrates her decisions on her own terms. The film is designed to be both entertaining and emotionally connecting, especially for today’s Gen Z audience.” Speaking about her role, Ulka Gupta said, “Rajni is a girl who doesn’t blindly follow traditions.

NIF Global Hosts Gauri Khan at Andheri Platinum Centre for Immersive Student Interaction NIF Global Mentor Gauri Khan Inspires Students at Andheri Platinum Centre with an Insightful Design Interaction NIF Global mentor and renowned interior designer Gauri Khan visited the Andheri Platinum Centre, marking her first interaction at an academic design campus. The visit brought together students from Andheri, Bandra, and Thane campuses for a focused and engaging experience that went beyond a typical guest session. Gauri Khan spent time interacting closely with students, understanding their work, and sharing her perspective on design as both a creative and professional discipline. The event was hosted in the presence of Director Vivek Gautam and Centre Head Mamta Gautam, along with Ms. Tisha Khosla from the NIF Global corporate team, who were part of the interaction and engagement throughout the session. During her visit, she toured the campus, viewed student installations and studio work, and interacted with students across different specialisations. She also reviewed selected portfolios and engaged in conversations around design thinking, execution, and the evolving expectations of the industry. The highlight of the visit was an interactive session where students had the opportunity to ask questions and gain insights into the realities of working in the design space. The session also included lighter segments that encouraged open dialogue and participation, making the interaction both informative and engaging. During this exchange, Gauri Khan emphasised that luxury today is deeply personal and rooted in comfort, while also highlighting the importance of designing with the end user in mind. She further shared that her design process always begins with understanding client requirements, with a strong inclination towards neutral palettes and timeless aesthetics that endure beyond fleeting trends. The event also recognised student achievements, including winners from Lakmé Fashion Week and top-performing students across departments, based on their overall performance and consistency. Speaking about her experience, Gauri Khan said, “It was wonderful to see the level of creativity and thought that students are bringing into their work. What stood out to me was their openness to experiment and their willingness to learn. Platforms like this are important because they give young designers the confidence to express their ideas and understand how design works in the real world.” She also appreciated the students’ work during her interaction, adding, “I think it’s so creative. It’s looking so nice, and I think you’ve put in all your hard work; it’s clearly visible. Seeing so many creative people in one room and their work, I think you’re all doing a fantastic job.” Sharing her thoughts, Mamta Gautam, Centre Head, said, “At our centre, we strongly believe that real learning comes from exposure and real-world interaction. Having Gauri Khan engage directly with our students has been a truly special moment, as it allows them to experience design beyond the classroom and builds their confidence to think and present independently.” Adding to this, Vivek Gautam, Director, said, “Our vision has always been to create an environment where students are not only trained in design but are also prepared to lead in the industry. Interactions like these bridge the gap between education and the professional world, giving students the clarity and exposure they need at the right stage of their journey.” Her visit reflected the importance of exposure and real-world interaction in design education. For many students, it was a rare opportunity to engage directly with a leading name in the industry and understand how design translates from concept to practice. The Andheri Platinum Centre continues to position itself as a space where students are not only taught design, but are encouraged to think, create, and grow through meaningful industry engagement.

Rajeev Khandelwal Recalls Rajesh Khanna’s Iconic ‘Anand’ Dialogue on Tum Ho Naa 28th April 2026, Mumbai: Rajeev Khandelwal once again proved why he stands out as a host on Tum Ho Naa, bringing depth and relatability to every conversation, as he turned a simple interaction into a meaningful reflection on life, relationships, and equality. During one of the rounds on Tum Ho Naa, Rajeev asked contestants how they would use the prize money if they won. Pooja shared that her house is currently too small, and she hopes to buy a bigger one by putting the prize money towards a down payment, along with her savings. When Rajeev inquired further, she revealed she had managed to save around 5 to 6 lakhs. Adding a light-hearted twist, Rajeev turned to her husband Kartik and asked whether handing over his entire salary meant he wasn’t good at budgeting or simply trusted his wife completely. Rajeev then humorously added, “Kyunki generally jo aadmi hote hain, unko lagta hai… ‘arre isko kya samajh mein aayega, saara yeh toh mujhe hi karna padega’.” Taking the conversation forward, Rajeev asked, “Aapko lagta hai ki yeh aapse zyada hoshiyar hai uss maamle mein.” Kartik candidly admitted that he believes his wife is indeed smarter. Rajeev further added an emotional layer, asking, “Zindagi mein aisa koi lamha aaya ho jab aapko yeh mehsoos hua ho… ‘actually Pooja, tujh sa koi nahi dooja.’ Aisa koi moment aaya life mein? Kyunki aisa bharosa raaton-raat nahi aata.” Kartik responded with a smile, summing it up simply: ‘Happy wife happy life’. The conversation then took a heartwarming turn when Rajeev asked Pooja if she had ever done something unexpected. She revealed that while working at a small company, she had saved money and surprised her husband with a scooty. Kartik shared how this thoughtful gesture changed his daily routine, as he now commutes to work on the scooty instead of taking the train. Reflecting on the conversation, Rajeev said, “aap ne abhi ye baat kahi yaha par ki chhoti zindagi hai.” He then brought in a timeless cinematic reference, asking, “aap ne Anand film dekhi hai? Uss mai ek dialogue Rajesh Khanna ji ne kaha tha, ‘Zindagi lambi nhi badi honi chahiye’.” He concluded with a powerful and inclusive thought, “ye chhoti zindagi kuch nahi hoti hai, hum sab barabar ke hai, hum sab apna kaam kar rahe hai, apna apna kitchen chalate hai.” In this heartfelt moment on Tum Ho Naa, Rajeev Khandelwal once again showcased his ability to turn everyday conversations into meaningful life lessons, leaving the audience with a simple yet powerful reminder about trust, equality, and truly valuing the life we live. Watch Tum Ho Naa, hosted by Rajeev Khandelwal, starting from 28th April, at 9:00 pm only on Sony Entertainment Television & Sony LIV.
