Ali Zafar: Indian audiences will find 'Teefa' in trouble
While India continues to maintain a distance from Pakistani films, actor Ali Zafar is grateful that his latest offering, 'Teefa' In Trouble, has released on Netflix India over the weekend. The action comedy had reportedly hit screens across 25 countries upon its release in July. Glad that his first Pakistani film can be viewed by fans across the border, Zafar says, "India will never be far.
The love and admiration I have received, and keep receiving from there will always be close to my heart."Having made his Bollywood debut with 'Tere Bin Laden' in 2010, the actor-singer had garnered a fan following with outings that included 'Mere Brother Ki Dulhan' (2011) and 'Chashme Buddoor' (2013). He hopes the latest action comedy - that also sees him as the co-producer and writer - too finds takers in his Indian fan base.
Grande's 'thank u, next' bests Adele to fastest 100 million views
Ariana Grande's breakup anthem 'thank u, next' has become the fastest music video to reach 100 million views, video hosting service Vevo said on Tuesday. The single, released after the 25-year-old singer's much publicized breakup with fiancé Pete Davidson, has also topped the Billboard charts for three weeks, giving Grande the biggest hit of her seven-year career.
Vevo said the 'thank u, next' video, in which Grande recreates scenes from popular women's empowerment movies 'Legally Blonde' and 'Mean Girls,' reached 100 million views in under four days following its November 30 release.
The previous record was held by British singer Adele's 'Hello' comeback music video in 2015, which took five days to reach 100 million views, Vevo said. "100 mil already. sheesh ... thank u, everybody. we love u n are so excited," Grande tweeted on Tuesday.
