Rajasthan MLA seeks tax-free status for 120 Bahadur, pens letter to CM Bhajan Lal Sharma

Excel Entertainment and Trigger Happy Studios’ 120 Bahadur stands tall as one of the year’s most awaited releases. After the teaser and songs stirred curiosity, the newly released trailer has taken the excitement to another level. Showcasing a fierce, inspiring, and untold chapter of India’s biggest war, where 120 heroic Indian soldiers held their ground against 3, 000 Chinese troops, the trailer has resonated deeply with audiences, earning widespread praise. Now, yet another significant development has emerged with growing demands for the film to be made tax-free. As 120 Bahadur narrates the story of the sacrifice made by our soldiers to protect the nation, it is being reported that there is a strong appeal for the film to receive a tax-free status. The first request has been made by Ravindra Singh Bhati, a member of the Rajasthan Legislative Assembly from the Sheo constituency. It has come to light that the MLA has written a letter to the Chief Minister of Rajasthan, Bhajan Lal Sharma, requesting that 120 Bahadur be declared tax-free. माननीय मुख्यमंत्री जी को पत्र लिखकर आगामी 21 नवम्बर को सम्पूर्ण देशभर के थिएटर में प्रदर्शित होने जा रही “120 बहादुर” फिल्म को प्रदेश में टैक्स फ्री करने का अनुरोध किया। यह फिल्म परमवीर चक्र मेजर शैतान सिंह जी व मां भारती के 120 वीर सपूतों के शौर्य, त्याग और वीरता की गाथा को. pic. twitter. com/XMoKtBnPa2- Ravindra Singh Bhati (@RavindraBhati__) November 9, 2025 120 Bahadur recounts the extraordinary courage of 120 Indian soldiers from the 13 Kumaon Regiment, who fought in the legendary Battle of Rezang La during the 1962 war.

Senate Moves to End Gov Shutdown

The post Senate Moves to End Gov Shutdown appeared com. Key Notes The Senate broke weeks-long deadlock with a 60-40 vote. The House is expected to follow with a quick one-day session. Positive sentiment is growing as the US government is expected to reopen within days. A late-night Senate vote to advance a funding bill has set the stage for the government’s long-awaited reopening. Chad Pergram, the senior congressional correspondent for Fox News, posted that seven Democrats and one Independent joined Republicans to break a political stalemate that had kept the government shut down for weeks. Senate Timing For Final Vote Unclear. House Aiming to Tackle the Bill Wednesday We are not expecting a final vote on the revamped GOP spending bill in the Senate overnight. Final passage of the bill will need a time agreement to expedite things in the Senate. Fox is told it’s.- Chad Pergram (@ChadPergram) November 10, 2025 According to Pergram’s post, the Senate voted 60-40 to “invoke cloture,” which means enough senators agreed to move forward with voting on a bill to reopen the US government. However, the final vote isn’t done yet, but it could “happen as soon as tomorrow,” the Fox News reporter said, pointing at Monday, Nov. 10. At this point, the bill only needs a simple majority to pass. Once the Senate passes it, the House of Representatives will vote next, likely on Nov. 12, planning a quick “one-day-and-out” session.

Kartik Aaryan makes a strategic move — bids adieu to Collective Artists Network, joins Dharma Cornerstone Agency

Kartik Aaryan has made a pivotal industry move-he’s officially parted ways with long-time manager team Collective Artists Network (CAN) and has inked a new charter with power-players Dharma Cornerstone Agency (DCA), founded by Karan Johar and Rajeev Masand, as per a report by Exchange4Media. This shift comes at a key moment, signalling a fresh beginning as the actor gears up for an ambitious 2026 slate. The transition follows the much-publicised fallout at the International Film Festival of India (IFFI) in Goa last year. Back then, Kartik’s session to promote his film was abruptly cancelled after his former team’s reported list of demands-10 extra tickets, two luxury suites, additional five-star accommodations-clashed with festival organisers. This sparked industry chatter about the role of management in star reputations. Now, aligning with DCA-an agency boasting over 200 talents across film, music and digital-is a strategic upgrade. The roster includes heavyweights like Janhvi Kapoor, Tiger Shroff, Sara Ali Khan, Ananya Panday and more in the Bollywood arena; beyond that, the agency represents music artistes and digital creators too. For Kartik, this means fresh access to premium brand deals, multi-platform ventures, and an enhanced image engine. Interestingly, this move also signals a reconciliation with the “Dharma circle.” Though earlier whispers suggested friction between Aaryan and Karan Johar-at one point the actor missed out on a major Johar-backed casting-this new partnership signals a fresh chapter and perhaps a reset of alliances. What does this mean for the future? A lot. Kartik’s 2026 line-up already looks punchy: Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri with Ananya Panday, the supernatural thriller Naagzilla (slated August 14, 2026) alongside the much-anticipated romantic film with Anurag Basu, which also stars Sreeleela. With DCA’s machinery in place, he’s now geared not just for box-office punch but also for image elevation, endorsements, digital footprint expansion-and perhaps the move into the league of A-list superstars.
