Sunlight making you look older? Dermatologist warns not applying sunscreen daily is doing you more damage than you think
On the June 17 episode of Figuring Out With Raj Shamani, Mumbai-based dermatologist and trichologist Dr Geetanjali Shetty emphasised the importance of sunscreen for all ages. According to her, sunscreen helps prevent wrinkles, fine lines, and age spots caused by UV exposure and by incorporating sunscreen into your daily routine, you can enjoy healthier, protected skin for years to come. Also read | Beauty experts list what to look for and avoid in a sunscreen Dr Shetty explained how sunscreen can protect from UVA (Ultraviolet A) rays, which penetrate deep into the skin, causing premature ageing and wrinkles. Sunscreen also helps protect against UVB (Ultraviolet B) rays that primarily cause sunburn and Dr Shetty added that even blue light (HEV or high energy visible light) from digital devices and screens can contribute to skin damage and premature ageing. Dr Shetty further shared that of the 10 patients she sees a day, 5-6 patients have little to no knowledge about sunscreen. Dr Shetty explained how many Indians don't apply sunscreen because they think they are immune if they 'spend most of their time in AC', and said, 'Sadly, no one understands sunlight in India. Earlier, there was less pollution, and no ozone layer disruption. The sunrays are very harsh now.' She added: 'Without sunscreen, you have cumulative damage happening to your skin. The SPF in sunscreen protects you against UVB and UVA. Now, with the lifestyle we have, we should start putting sunscreen indoors to protect ourselves from the blue light of screens. The earlier you realise this, the younger your are going to stay.' Wondering how to choose the ideal sunscreen for your skin type? In a March 2023 interview with HT Lifestyle, Dr Akber Aimer, director of aesthetic medicine and surgery at Maya Medi Spa shared some tips to help you find the perfect sun protection for your unique skin type. For oily or acne-prone skin, he said, look for a lightweight, oil-free, and non-comedogenic sunscreen, while for dry or sensitive skin, choose a moisturising sunscreen. For combination skin, use a sunscreen that is lightweight and non-greasy. He added that you should avoid sunscreens that contain zinc oxide or titanium dioxide as they can leave a white cast on the skin.

Golmaal 5 Plot Finalised, Rohit Shetty–Ajay Devgn To Collaborate For 14th Time
Last Updated: Rohit Shetty and Ajay Devgn are set for their 14th collaboration with Golmaal 5, slated to begin filming in early 2026. If laughter truly is the best medicine, then Rohit Shetty and Ajay Devgn are the long-time chemists of Bollywood. The duo is reportedly back at it again with Golmaal 5. According to a Pinkvilla report, the fifth installment of the Golmaal franchise is all set to roll out in early 2026. But before that, Shetty is busy wrapping up the Rakesh Maria biopic starring John Abraham, which is scheduled to be completed by September 2025. 'Rohit Shetty is presently shooting for the Rakesh Maria biopic with John Abraham in Mumbai. The film will be wrapped up by September 2025, and the filmmaker is aiming to lock the edit by the end of this year, for an early 2026 release. Right after completing work on the Rakesh Maria Biopic, Rohit moves on to the prep of Golmaal FIVE, and take it on floors by February/March 2026," the portal quoted a source as saying. And that's not all. Apparently, the storyline for Golmaal 5 is already in place. A new team of writers is currently working on fine-tuning the script, which is expected to be locked by September 2025. Devgn will, of course, be back leading the pack of the famously dysfunctional Golmaal gang—Arshad Warsi, Tusshar Kapoor, Kunal Kemmu, Shreyas Talpade, and the legendary Johnny Lever. Rohit Shetty had confirmed Golmaal 5 in November 2024. Rohit Shetty shared that he intends to return to Golmaal's light-hearted world before diving back into intense action. 'I think before any cop film for sure, Golmaal will be the next," Shetty had revealed. For Shetty, shifting genres feels refreshing. He described working on a comedy like Golmaal after an intense project like Singham as a 'detox." 'I look forward to making Golmaal after a big project like Singham. It's lighter and happier, and I'm not as worried," he said. The Golmaal series kicked off way back in 2006 with Golmaal: Fun Unlimited and has since delivered three more laugh riots, with the last one, Golmaal Again, releasing in 2017. First Published:

Mumbai-Pune expressway's e-challan system riles transporters; recovery just 9 pc of Rs 269 cr
As per an RTI reply, the Maharashtra government has paid the ITMS operator Rs 57.94 crore for the 8.84 lakh e-challans issued between July 19 and December 31 last year. The 1.51 lakh cleared e-challans, or 8.89 per cent of the total generated, amount to Rs 25.17 crore, which is 9.33 per cent of the total sum to be paid by offenders, as per officials documents. Mumbai, Jun 12 (PTI) The Intelligent Traffic Management System (ITMS) on Mumbai-Pune Expressway has generated 17 lakh e-challans worth Rs 269.47 crore for traffic violations since it was implemented on July 19 last year but recovery from offenders stands at a measly 9 per cent till March 2025, officials said on Sunday. The project is being executed by Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC), which built the expressway, in collaboration with the RTO and Highway Police under a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model. The state transport department has given Rs 45 crore viability gap funding from Road Safety Fund for the project that costs more than Rs 100 crore. The MSRTC has installed 40 gantries and hundreds of CCTV cameras as part of ITMS, which also includes speed detection cameras, ANPR, weigh-in-motion sensors, AVCC, weather sensors, a dynamic messaging system, a command and control centre (CCC), and supporting infrastructure at multiple locations across the expressway. As per the mechanism, a traffic violation report is generated through the ITMS system and verified at the Command Control Centre (CCC) by the operator's staff, and challans have to be approved by RTO officials. While there is a provision to issue e-challans for 17 traffic violations, the ones handed down so far pertain to over-speeding, driving without seat belt, lane cutting, wrong side entry and use of mobile while driving, officials said. Of the 17.07 lakh e-challans issued through ITMS system between July 2024 and March 2025, the highest 2.81 lakh e-challans were of November 2024, followed by 2.66 lakh for December and 2.56 lakh for January this year, as per transport department documents. The reply to an RTI query by bus operator KL Shetty revealed that 18.25 lakh e-challans were generated by the operator between July 2024 and January 2025, but only 12 lakh e-challans were approved by RTO officials, while the remaining 6.25 lakh were rejected. Documents show that the operator, Proctech Solutions ITMS LLP as per Shetty's RTI reply, gets Rs 654.90, comprising its share of Rs 555 and 18 per cent GST, for every e-challan issued. An official on the condition of anonymity said ITMS went live in March 2024 without prior approval of the challan-generating devices as required under Rule 167 of the Central Motor Vehicles Rules 1989. 'The approval process was initiated only after the system went live, with the Transport Commissioner being appointed as the designated authority on July 4, 2024, and subsequently granting approval without any technical verification on July 16,' an official said. Transport Commissioner Vivek Bhimanwar could not be contacted despite repeated attempts, while emails sent to MSRDC by PTI did not elicit any response. Vehicle operators and former transport department officials also alleged the firm does not have adequate experience of handling such projects after being incorporated in December 2021. Transport operators are unhappy at the flood of e-challans and urged authorities to take note of the resentment in the vital sector. 'When road safety is outsourced to a private company, safety often takes a back seat and financial gains become the priority. Under the pretext of road safety, challans are being issued indiscriminately. If this continues, the road transport industry will collapse,' alleged bus operator and Mumbai Bus Malak Sanghatana functionary Harsh Kotak. Baba Shinde, a leader of transporters, said challans are being issued for minor over-speeding, while repeated complaints to authorities have fallen on deaf ears. The expressway, connecting Mumbai and Pune, was inaugurated in 2002 and is primarily used by cars, tempo, tankers, trailers, trucks, and buses, which two-wheelers and three-wheelers are officially prohibited.

Actor Rishab Shetty escapes unhurt as boat capsizes during Kantara-1 shoot
A boat carrying actor Rishab Shetty and around 30 crew members capsized during the shoot of 'Kantara: Chapter 1' at the Mani reservoir in Karnataka's Shivamogga district, reported news agency PTI. The incident occurred in the shallow waters of Melina Koppa in the Masti Katte region, narrowly averting what could have been a major tragedy. All members onboard, including actor-director Shetty, escaped unhurt, the police said. However, filming equipment, including cameras, is believed to have been damaged or lost. The exact value of the loss is still being assessed, according to Thirthahalli police, who confirmed an investigation is underway. This incident comes just days after the death of actor-mimicry artist Kalabhavan Niju, 43, who suffered a heart attack in Bengaluru while shooting for the same film. According to a report by OnManorama, Niju complained of chest pain at the homestay arranged for artists and was rushed to hospital, where he was declared dead. The Kerala-based actor had reportedly joined the film after an audition and was last seen in the Malayalam film 'Marco'. His death marks the third fatality linked to 'Kantara: Chapter 1' in the past month. In May, Kannada comedian Rakesh Poojary, 33, died of a cardiac arrest while attending a wedding. Around the same time, a 32-year-old junior artiste from Kerala, MF Kapil, drowned in the Souparnika river after being caught in a cross current. The Hombale Films production has endured a series of misfortunes since filming began. Last November, a minibus carrying 20 junior artistes met with an accident in Mudoor; though all escaped unhurt, it raised alarms over on-set safety. Earlier, a costly set constructed for the film was destroyed by heavy rains, further delaying the shoot. Kantara: Chapter 1 is a prequel to Shetty's critically acclaimed 2022 film Kantara. The new instalment is scheduled for release on 2 October 2025, with Rishab Shetty once again taking the lead role.
