British actress in ‘upskirt' scandal shares update from Italy: ‘Would kill for curry'
British-Indian actress Narinder Kaur has shared an update from Italy amid the ongoing controversy surrounding her intimate picture that was shared on social media. Kaur's update, however, had nothing to do with the scandal and all to do with Sicily's food. Narinder Kaur has worked as a presenter on shows including Good Morning Britain and TalkTV.
The 52-year-old shared a video of a plate of pasta and said that in a week that she has spent on the Mediterranean island, she has sampled 19 different kinds of pasta and pizza. Now, she is desperate for a taste of Indian food.
'Day 7 in Sicily. I've eaten 19 types of pasta, the same pizza over and over....and would now kill for a samosa or curry,' wrote Narinder Kaur on X. 'Why is international cuisine so scarce here?' she asked.
Kaur's post has gone viral with over 8 lakh views and sparked a debate on food availability across the world.
In an update, Kaur – who rose to fame after appearing on Big Brother – said that all kinds of cuisines are available in India. The same cannot be said for Sicily. 'Before you all say- India is just all Indian food - not true - they offer all kinds of international cuisine,' she said.
In the comments section, a person asked the 52-year-old TV presenter if one could easily get beans on toast in Mumbai. She replied, 'Yes you can get that in India! And no..I disagree, Italian food is bland- to me.' Narinder Kaur and Laurence Fox row
In April 2024, actor-turned-politician Laurence Fox reposted a 2009 upskirting photo of TV presenter Narinder Kaur, taken without her consent, on X (formerly Twitter).
The Metropolitan Police launched an 11-month investigation after Kaur reported the incident and in March 2025, Fox was charged under Section 66A of the Sexual Offences Act 2003 (relating to cyber-flashing)—for sharing an intimate image without consent, intended to cause distress or sexual gratification, reported The Guardian.
Earlier this month, Narinder Kaur and Laurence Fox came face to face at Woolwich Crown Court over the upskirting photo case. Fox has denied the charges related to sharing the image.

Danish influencer wants to buy 'more papads made by Amitabh Bachchan'; internet jokes he also 'grows basmati rice'
An influencer called Frederikke from Copenhagen, Denmark, recently travelled to Nepal, where she picked up some delicious papadoms. She just wanted to know who the man on the cover was, not recognising that he was Amitabh Bachchan. The internet was more than thrilled to remind her of the cultural zeitgeist that he is. (Also Read: Amitabh Bachchan is hunting trolls on Twitter today; gives brutal replies to 'buddha sathiya gaya hai', 'ganja' comments) The internet was anything but helpful when an influencer asked where she could find papads made by Amitabh Bachchan. Frederikke posted a reel on her Instagram, writing, 'Who is this man—and why does he make the BEST papadum I've ever had?! I bought this papad back in Nepal and haven't found it anywhere in Copenhagen. I'm running low… if anyone knows where to get this or who this legendary papad guy is, please help.' In the video, she takes a Bikaji moong dal papad out of the packet, roasts it on an electric stove, and happily bites into it, while asking people to tell her where to find more papad and to tell Amitabh he makes them best. Influencer gets a masterclass on Amitabh Bachchan While Frederikke was most likely joking, given that her handle is bhukkad_bidesi and she probably knows who Amitabh is, people on the internet had a ball. One person hilariously commented, 'Yeah. He personally hand rolls each papad in his Mumbai mansion. Real artisanal stuff.' Another wrote, 'He also used to grow basmati rice at India Gate, New Delhi.' Fans even brought up Amitabh's ads for polio drops, pipes and soan papdi, while others tagged him in the comments. A person hilariously commented, 'And if you get indigestion after over eating PAPADUMS you can buy digestive aid tablets (hajmola) from same guy win!!!' Fans also flooded her comments with hilarious GIFs of Amitabh in reaction. Even Aishwarya Rai was dragged into the conversation, 'His daughter in law makes best hair dye and anti ageing cream called L'Oréal.' As was Shah Rukh Khan, 'wait till you try Shah Rukh Khan's pickles. He's my distant relative.' Amitabh has been working in films since the 60s and is one of the leading brand endorsers in India. He has been the face of brands like India Gate, First Cry, Just Dial, Cadbury, Kalyan Jewellers, Pepsi and more.

Prince Harry to Potentially Extend Invictus Games Invite to Royal Family Members: Is Reunion on Cards?
Prince Harry is allegedly planning on sending the Invictus Games invite to his estranged royal family members. According to the reports from the Daily Mail, the invites will be sent by the Duke of Sussex later this month. The time window is said to be perfect to send out the invitations to the British royal family and for them to attend the event, as King Charles plans his schedule three years in advance. The alleged move by the father of two will mark the reunion of the family members for the first time since Queen Elizabeth's funeral. However, some of the royal experts are skeptical of the monarch and the Prince of Wales attending the Invictus games. Will King Charles and other family members attend the Invictus Games on Prince Harry's invitation? Amid the reports of Prince Harry sending out the Invictus Games invitations to his family members, the royal experts predict whether the monarch and others will attend the event or not. Ingrid Seward revealed to the media portal, 'The King might attend to show support for the Armed Forces and congratulate Harry on the most significant success in his life. The only reason the King is wary of associating with his son is that he no longer trusts him not to repeat their private conversations, as he has done in the past. This goes for all the working members of the family.' Moreover, the royal commentator Katie Nicholl shared, 'The King absolutely wants a relationship with his youngest son and with his grandchildren. He has an incredible capacity for forgiveness and he wants to be magnanimous in all of this and therefore there's certainly a possibility that the King might consider attending Invictus.' As for Harry's long association with the Invictus Games, the Duke has handled and supervised the event since the first year. In 2014, the prince was clicked at the 2014 event alongside King Charles, Queen Camila, and his brother, Prince William.

Chetan Bhagat praises 'Kesari Chapter 2', credits film for reigniting call for British apology on Jallianwala Bagh incident
Kesari Chapter 2, starring Akshay Kumar, R Madhavan, and Ananya Panday, continues to be in public discourse even months after its April release. The Karan Singh Tyagi directorial is a courtroom drama based on the life of C Sankaran Nair (Akshay), a lawyer who challenged the British Raj after the horrific Jallianwala Bagh massacre of 1919. The film has garnered effusive praise from author Chetan Bhagat, even as it faces serious accusations of plagiarism and historical inaccuracies. Saying he 'walked out shaken' from the film, Chetan wrote that the film 'drags history out of textbooks and makes you feel it in your bones." According to the makers, the film is based on Raghu and Pushpa Palat's book 'The Case That Shook The Empire'. An excerpt from Cinema Express' review notes that this 'text details C Sankaran Nair's defence against a defamation case' in London, filed by Michael O'Dwyer, Lieutenant Governor of Punjab during the Jallianwala Bagh tragedy. The review further points out that while Sankaran Nair resigned from the Viceroy's council, contesting the massacre, and condemned the Raj, the film portrays him as a powerful figure, 'who filed a genocide case against the British in the Amritsar district court'—a claim unsupported by historical records.' Despite such historical discrepancies, Chetan continued his commendation, acknowledging the cinematic liberties taken. "Sure, the film takes cinematic liberties. There are imagined confrontations, dramatized moments, and even some revenge fantasy. Think Inglourious Basterds in Amritsar. But the core truth remains: over a thousand Indians were trapped and massacred in cold blood by British troops in 1919. That horror is real. That pain is generational. And that silence from Britain? Also very real," he said.
