Is Shah Rukh Khan playing a cameo in Rajinikanth's Jailer 2? Know the TRUTH
Superstar Rajinikanth starrer Jailer 2 is currently being filmed with many actors expected to be a part of it. While more details about the movie are yet to be made, the Nelson Dilipkumar directorial was rumored to rope in Shah Rukh Khan for a cameo role, but is there any truth to it? As per a report by the X handle, Box Office - South India, Shah Rukh Khan is not part of the film and won't be playing a cameo role in the sequel. However, there are claims that a Bollywood actor will be part of the project, which will only be announced in due time. For those unaware, Jailer 2 is the upcoming sequel to the 2023 hit Jailer. The action thriller features the tale of 'Tiger' Muthuvel Pandian, a former jail warden played by the superstar. The first installment focused on the story of the retired jail warden exacting revenge against the men who were responsible for his son's death. However, as the film progresses, a dark truth is revealed, leading the film to become a heist venture. Apart from Rajinikanth, the film featured actors like Mohanlal, Shiva Rajkumar, and Jackie Shroff in cameo roles. Now, with the sequel, the stars are expected to reprise their former characters and even include Nandamuri Balakrishna in a special appearance. While more details are yet to be made, reports also suggest that Nagarjuna Akkineni might play the main antagonist, although it hasn't been confirmed. Coming to Rajinikanth's work front, the superstar was last seen in a leading role in the action drama Vettaiyan. The TJ Gnanavel directorial featured the actor as a police officer, infamous for encountering criminals, but is torn when a sensational case comes across him. Moving ahead, the actor will soon be on the big screens with his film Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj. The action entertainer is slated to release on August 14, 2025, with Nagarjuna Akkineni and Upendra Rao in key roles. Aside from them, Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan will be playing a cameo role in the much-awaited film. Moreover, the cinematic venture offers an ensemble cast of actors like Shruti Haasan, Soubin Shahir, Pooja Hegde (dance appearance), and more in key roles.

Kebab shop shooting continues state's 'violent chapter'
A triple shooting at a suburban restaurant has prompted an attorney-general to review a bail decision for the target of the attack amid fears of escalating gangland violence. A 26-year-old man, identified in media reports as senior Alameddine criminal network member Samimjam Azari, is in a stable condition after the latest attempt on his life. He is expected to recover fully after being shot in the arm and shoulder at a western Sydney eatery. A 25-year-old man accompanying him was shot in the head and is in a critical but stable condition, while a 47-year-old woman who worked at the restaurant is stable after being shot in the torso and arm. The trio were injured when gunmen struck an Auburn kebab shop in the eighth Sydney shooting in six weeks, marking an escalation in the city's gangland wars. The shop was closed on Tuesday afternoon while neighbouring businesses contended with a busy afternoon trade. More than 150 police have been knocking on doors to check bail compliance, search for guns and warn other potential targets as part of a task force established after a shooting in May. "We're doing absolutely everything we can to ensure that this does not happen again," Detective Superintendent Jason Box told reporters. The "saturation" of police in the area may have put criminals on edge and led to the delay between the shooting and a series of fires involving cars believed to be linked to the attack, Det Supt Box said. It was also evident when riot police were among those responding to reports of a brawl involving schoolchildren near the scene of the shooting on Tuesday afternoon. Azari was "reasonably dismissive" when police earlier warned him of threats to his life. "I'm hoping that this individual reassesses his movements," Det Supt Box said. He had reported to police on bail an hour before the shooting on Monday. Two cars were found alight about 3.15am on Tuesday in Merrylands and Greystanes, not far from the kebab shop, with residents helping police extinguish one vehicle. A black Audi - believed to be a getaway vehicle after the shooting - was earlier found alight about 6pm on Monday at Harris Park. A white ute found alight on Tuesday morning was allegedly carrying masked and armed men targeting Azari on Friday. He also survived other recent shootings at Granville and Brighton-Le-Sands. Police expressed concerns of further violence when asking for Azari to be refused bail and will continue to do so for other alleged criminals believed to be linked to organised crime. "We'll be putting forward our concerns for these people not to be on the streets and it's quite obvious that they shouldn't be," Det Supt Box said. Premier Chris Minns told reporters Attorney-General Michael Daley was looking at the transcript of the court's decision to grant Azari bail. The government has tightened bail laws for certain offences in the past and would consider doing so again, but police had all the resources required to catch "these animals". "Their disregard for human life, their disregard for the laws that we have in Australia, is horrifying," Mr Minns said. "This is a horrifying, violent chapter in the state's history and it needs to be met with the full force of the law."

In times of political turmoil, the Speaker's ‘soft power' is important
The Speaker, however, is not a real-time fact checker of comments made from the Despatch Box. He is not responsible for what a Member, including the Prime Minister, says in the Chamber. He does not have the authority to require Ministers to give answers to questions. His role is impartial and he has no say or influence over government policy. The Speaker also has administrative responsibilities as Chair of the House of Commons Commission, which employs and cares for over 3,000 staff, runs the administration and services of the House, and oversees the maintenance of the Palace of Westminster and precincts. Furthermore, the Speaker represents the Commons as an institution in a wide range of public forums, both at home and abroad. He takes the lead in interparliamentary liaison and engages with people about the work and role of the democratically elected House: interactions that Speakers began more than 200 years ago. Many Speakers have represented the House on the international stage, at a range of interparliamentary events, including the G20 Speakers' Conference, the G7 Speakers' Conference, the Commonwealth Speakers and Presiding Officers Conference, and the Council of Europe Speakers' Conference. In these times of political turmoil, when democracy is under challenge, the use of the Speaker's 'soft power' is particularly important. For example, together with Ruslan Stefanchuk, President of the Ukrainian Parliament – the Verkhovna Rada – Sir Lindsay Hoyle has championed the democratic rights of Ukraine, at the G20 and G7 forums. Indeed, as early as 1944, the then Speaker, Clifton Brown, recognised the value of the Speaker's role in diplomacy and lead a parliamentary delegation to visit allied troops in Normandy. I hope this helps in a small way to explain the extensive role of the Speaker – and his office, which dates back to the 14th century. Jackie Storer, Press Secretary to the Speaker of the House of Commons, London. Shelling out at the Armadillo How on earth did anyone manage to get one of the 6,000 tickets to either of the two David Byrne concerts scheduled at the Armadillo for next March? Presale for these concerts began last Thursday, with General sale commencing at 10am on Friday. I went on to Ticketmaster at exactly 10am. Tickets started at just over £40. These were unavailable. By the time I'd read this message the only tickets available, for better seats, already cost £134.50. The time was now 10.01. Shortly afterwards, the cheapest ticket for Saturday was £265. I know of five other people who had the same dismal experience. Am I alone in suggesting that something is going wrong here? Sorry, David. We'd have loved to see you – but not at these exorbitant prices. Raymond Highet, Glasgow. Council must reject this plan This is an open letter to Glasgow City Council to ask it reject a planning submission being recommended for approval, for purpose-built student accommodation with ground-floor food hall, fronting onto Sauchiehall Street. Recommendations to reject have already been made by Historic Environment Scotland; Glasgow School of Art; The Mackintosh Society: fellow councillors Christy Mearns and Philip Braat; the Architectural Heritage Society of Scotland; Glasgow City Heritage Trust and over 130 objectors and fellow Glaswegians. Seven years ago, on June 15, 2018, Charles Rennie Mackintosh's masterwork, the Glasgow School of Art, was almost destroyed by an inferno that lit up the city. The school of art board have promised a 'faithful reinstatement' of the building and today are working toward that aim. The fire that almost destroyed the school also seriously damaged the adjoining ABC cinema, to the extent that it had to be demolished and devastated a site that is one of the most important in the city, on one of Glasgow's most historic thoroughfares: Sauchiehall Street. Now a planning application for 350 student beds and a food hall is proposed to front onto Sauchiehall Street and replace the cinema. The massive structure will obscure Mackintosh's world-renowned south elevation but also detrimentally impact Alexander Thomson's A-listed Grecian building on the corner of Scott Street, as it is an unequivocally over-scaled, nine-storey structure of limited architectural merit. The application as proposed would have a significantly adverse impact within the conservation area and destroy the setting and appreciation of Mackintosh's masterwork, a building of great significance to Glasgow, Scotland and the world. In support of the application, images now being put forward by the developer show sunlight flooding into a proposed busy 'public space' at the rear of the proposed structure and fronting onto the south elevation of the school of art. As an architect who has built much in Glasgow, it is my view these images are misleading and only if you remove four or five storeys from the front onto Sauchiehall street then you may get some sunlight into such a space - in high summer. Like Professor Penny Macbeth, director and principal of the Glasgow School of Art, I agree that the redevelopment of the former ABC Cinema is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to positively transform this significant site and this part of the Sauchiehall Street. But this poorly-considered, cash- and opportunity-grabbing proposal is not that. City council planners have also agreed that this development would have a 'negative impact on the historic environment' but despite that have forwarded the plans for council approval, which I urge councillors to reject. Professor Alan Dunlop FRIAS, Aberfoyle.

‘I found a way to get Nuxe body oil for under £2 in beauty deal that saves £80'
Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Or is a luxurious oil that usually costs £33 for a full-size bottle, but you can try it for less than £2 in this bundle of glow-boosting beauty products Some beauty products have undeniable cult classic, 'hall of fame' status, and one such item is Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Or. This shimmery oil can be used on the body, face and even hair to give a gorgeous summery sheen, and smells incredible too. It doesn't come cheap, however, with a full-size 100ml bottle currently costing £33 on Lookfantastic. However, I've found a way for you to try it out for just a couple of quid. You'll find a 10ml travel-size bottle of Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Or Florale inside this month's new OK! Beauty Box, called the Glow-Getter Edit, along with four other glow-boosting beauty products. The box costs just £8.99 to first-time subscribers, which means that each of the five products inside could be given a value of around £1.80 when buying this box – significantly less than what it would cost to buy them individually. In fact, the contents inside are worth over £90 in total, saving you over £80 in total. Bargain! Other radiance-enhancing products you'll find inside include a suits-all cleanser worth almost £40, a plumping and firming sheet mask, a sparkly lip gloss and a pretty powder highlighter. Here's exactly what's inside: Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Or Florale - 10ml travel-size, worth £4.40 Makeup Revolution Shimmer Bomb Lip Gloss in the shade Sparkle - 4.5ml full-size, worth £5.99 Mudmasky Glow-Up Cleanser - 60ml full-size, worth £39.99 Luna by Luna Highlight in the shade Moonbeam - 3g full-size, worth £15 Hello Skin Bio-Collagen Firming Treatment Mask - one mask, worth £18 Plus a voucher to redeem not for two copies of OK! Magazine - RRP £8.80 After signing up and getting your first box for £8.99, your monthly deliveries are £15 from then on; the box's contents will always be worth at least £80, and you can pause or cancel your subscription at any time. With three of the products individually worth more than the entire cost of the Glow-Getter Edit – and healthy, radiant skin never going out of fashion – this is an excellent way to try some new products (or old favourites) for less. I'd say it's worth it just for the Nuxe oil and the Mudmasky cleanser on its own, as they're both normally quite expensive and are super-handy for holidays, and the other three treats inside just make it even better value. The powder highlighter also doubles up as a pretty eyeshadow, and the Revolution Shimmer Bomb gloss is perfect for festival season (it is very spangly). If you're looking for another beauty deal that gets you your holiday essentials for less, the Boots Minis Bag Get Holiday Ready costs £32 but is worth over £120, and contains top brands such as MAC, Laneige and Sol de Janeiro. Lookfantastic's The Summer Heroes Edit is also a great deal, priced at £45 but worth over £150, and containing the likes of Caudalie, Iconic London and ESPA.
