Awez Darbar Finally Breaks Silence on Cheating Allegations: Nagma Told Me…

After his eviction from Bigg Boss 19, choreographer and content creator Awez Darbar has finally opened up about the storm of infidelity allegations that followed him inside the house. Contestants Baseer Ali and Amaal Mallik accused Awez of cheating on his long-time partner, Nagma Mirajkar, while actress Shubhi Joshi claimed to have dated him outside the house.

In an exclusive conversation with The Free Press Journal, Awez clarified his stand, defended his relationship, and addressed every controversy with unfiltered honesty.

Talking about Baseer and Amaal’s cheating allegations, Awez said,
“I went and told Baseer that if you don’t know whether what the third party told you is true or not, then how can you say all this on national television? Then he himself admitted that the same person had spoken things about him on another show, and when he asked her for clarification, she blocked him. So if Baseer is admitting that the girl blocked him when he asked for clarity, then how can he believe her?”

He further added,
“Baseer also got guilty because he knew what he had spoken about me were lies. That is exactly why he said sorry. Otherwise, a person like Baseer would never apologize. His claims got nullified because Nagma had heard those allegations herself, and she did not react because we weren’t even dating at that time. Baseer feared that if I revealed what I knew about him, he would be in trouble. I have kept quiet until now because he apologized. But I want to tell his PR team that if any more fake narrative is set from Baseer’s side, I will speak out and not keep my mouth shut. There’s a limit to everything.”

Awez also revealed what Nagma told him after his exit from Bigg Boss 19.
“She told me, ‘These people are mad, don’t they realize what they’re saying? How can they take a conversation about one thing and twist it into another?’ This conversation even happened in front of Salman sir, where I said that I was on a ‘trial period.’ It was about the fact that for nine years of trauma, I didn’t want to date or get married.

“In between, for one year, Nagma and I did not even talk. Later, I called her and said, ‘Now I miss you, because I remember you in everything. I want to go ahead, I want to marry you.’ She initially said no many times. Then one day she said, ‘You are on a trial period.’ I said okay, whatever it is, I accept it. We even spoke about this in front of Salman sir. So what is wrong here? Even if I had a past, what’s wrong with that? If I did date anyone before, I was single then. But I never did. I am still saying the same thing: I have never dated anyone, no one. I stand by my words.”

Regarding the claims made by actress Shubhi Joshi, Awez avoided taking her name directly. He said,
“I don’t want to drag anyone’s name or spoil anyone’s life by talking about them. That’s why I’ve stayed quiet about Baseer too. So I will just end it here. I am happy with Nagma. You figure out your life, I will figure out mine. Just don’t ask the makers to take you inside the Bigg Boss house as a wildcard contestant.”

With his candid remarks, Awez Darbar has put the controversy to rest and shown his commitment to his relationship and personal integrity.

EXCLUSIVE: How Prince Harry Was Blocked From Getting His ‘Dream’ Tattoo — After He Was Spotted at Inker’s Parlor in New York

**Prince Harry Nearly Got His “Dream” Tattoo During Wild Las Vegas Trip: A Story Resurfaced Amid Recent Tattoo Stunt**

*Published Oct. 1, 2025, 7:40 p.m. ET*

Prince Harry, 41, once came close to getting his “dream” tattoo during a notorious 2012 trip to Las Vegas — a story now resurfacing after he was recently seen participating in a tattoo stunt at a New York parlor.

In his memoir *Spare*, Harry recounted how, during that wild trip to Nevada, he was determined to commemorate the holiday with body ink. Fueled by alcohol and the thrill of freedom, he chose to get a map of Botswana tattooed on the sole of his foot.

### A Tattoo Plan Born in Sin City

However, Harry’s friends intervened, insisting that no prince should wake up with a permanent reminder of a night out in Sin City. A source close to the duke revealed, “Harry genuinely wanted the tattoo — to him, it symbolized both his connection to Botswana and living in the moment. His friends, though, saw it as a bad idea and stepped in, convinced he’d regret it later.”

### Friends Put Their Foot Down

In *Spare*, Harry explained his tattoo placement debate: the shoulder was too visible, the lower back too provocative, but the sole of his foot seemed perfect.

“Layers upon layers of symbolism,” he wrote, recalling how he wandered down the Las Vegas Strip searching for a tattoo parlor with an atlas of Africa. His friends, however, had other ideas. “Absolutely not,” they told him.

Harry recalled their threats to “hold me down, knock me out, whatever it took” to stop him from going through with it. Ultimately, he abandoned the plan and joined his entourage at a nightclub, admitting to sulking over the missed tattoo.

### Ink Fascination Resurfaces in New York

More than a decade later, Harry’s fascination with tattoos hasn’t faded. Last year, he was spotted entering East Side Ink in Manhattan alongside American country star Jelly Roll, sparking rumors that he had finally decided to get inked.

It was later revealed the scene was staged as part of a promotional sketch for the Invictus Games Vancouver Whistler 2025. In the short film, Jelly Roll jokingly inks Harry, who pretends to be getting his first tattoo.

The prank showcased the royal exile’s playful side but also revived memories of that Vegas trip. An insider said, “The stunt brought back memories of Harry’s long-standing curiosity about tattoos. Even though it wasn’t real, it reminded people of that night in Las Vegas when he nearly went through with it.”

### A Dream Deferred, Not Forgotten

Harry’s 2012 weekend in Nevada is remembered more for scandalous photos leaked from a game of strip billiards than for his unfulfilled tattoo dream. Yet, his memoir highlighted how seriously he considered the tattoo at the time, viewing it as a symbol of his independence.

Though he never followed through with the Botswana design, Harry admitted the idea lingered. “The tattoo could wait till the next day,” he recalled in *Spare* — though that day has not come… yet.

EXCLUSIVE: ‘RHONJ’ Star Teresa Giudice Considering ‘Patching Things Up’ With Melissa and Joe Gorga After Explosive Feud… As Her Future on Bravo Show Remains Up In The Air

**Teresa Giudice Opens the Door to Potential Reconciliation with Brother Joe Gorga and Sister-in-Law Melissa Gorga**

Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice is sincere about being open to making up with her brother Joe Gorga and sister-in-law Melissa Gorga, RadarOnline.com can reveal.

During an appearance on Jeff Lewis’ SiriusXM show, Teresa was asked about coexisting with Melissa, Joe, and Margaret Josephs. Fans were stunned when she replied, “Never say never,” signaling a potential willingness to reconcile.

Some reports labeled this as a “desperate” move, suggesting Teresa was trying to secure her spot on RHONJ when the show inevitably returns. However, Teresa addressed these rumors on her *Turning the Tables* podcast, insisting that wasn’t the case.

> “The thing is, before I was very adamant – and I was just like absolutely not,” Teresa said. “And I know everyone’s saying now, ‘Oh my god, she’s saying it now ’cause she’s desperate. She needs a job.’ That’s not the case. There’s things that… there’s reasons why I’m saying that. It’s like an olive branch. Now I’m just saying, ‘Never say never.’ That’s it.”

She added, “I’m just saying my door is cracked open. I just said, ‘Never say never.'”

### Insider Confirms Teresa’s Intentions Are Genuine

An insider exclusively spoke to RadarOnline.com to affirm that Teresa is sincere about wanting to reconcile with her family.

> “The thing that stinks is this does come off as her looking desperate for wanting to make up with Joe and Melissa,” the source shared, referencing reports that test filming had taken place for the new season without Teresa, and that she may be using this as leverage to get back on the show.
>
> “But that’s truly not the case at all,” they insisted.

### Gia Giudice Encouraged Teresa to Stop Fighting

Currently appearing on *Special Forces*, Teresa’s experience on the show has also influenced her mindset about family.

> “On the show, her daughter Gia Giudice made her agree that stopping fighting would be best for everyone,” the source explained. “So when she did an interview promoting the show and was asked about Joe and Melissa, she gave the answer she did.”

The insider noted that Teresa “just didn’t articulate it clearly,” but that her intentions are genuine.

### The Future of Teresa Giudice on RHONJ

Regarding Teresa’s future on *Real Housewives of New Jersey*, which remains uncertain amid ongoing casting rumors, the source shared that she “hasn’t heard anything yet.”

> “But Teresa is strong,” the insider added. “She will be fine whichever way this works out. Like she always says, if it turns out to be a no, god’s rejection is god’s protection.”

Meanwhile, reports suggest Melissa Gorga, Margaret Josephs, and Dolores Catania are set to return for the new season. As usual, Bravo has not commented on casting for upcoming seasons.

Stay tuned for more updates on *RHONJ* and Teresa Giudice’s journey toward family reconciliation.

Shah Rukh Khan becomes world’s richest actor with $1.4 billion net worth, overtakes Taylor Swift

According to the Hurun India Rich List 2025, Shah Rukh Khan has officially joined the ranks of global billionaires with an estimated net worth of $1.4 billion (Rs. 12,490 crores). This milestone not only cements his status as India’s richest actor but also ranks him above several international stars.

Bollywood’s Badshah, Shah Rukh Khan (59), has joined the billionaire club for the first time with a wealth of INR 12,490 crores. In doing so, he now eclipses the fortunes of high-profile celebrities like Taylor Swift (at $1.3 billion), Arnold Schwarzenegger ($1.2 billion), Jerry Seinfeld ($1.2 billion), and Selena Gomez ($720 million).

Within India’s entertainment elite, the gap between Shah Rukh and his peers is growing significantly. His longtime business partner Juhi Chawla and her family rank next with a reported net worth of Rs. 7,790 crores, while Hrithik Roshan trails further behind at Rs. 2,160 crores.

The Hurun list notes that in the prior year, Shah Rukh’s net worth was pegged at $870 million, making this leap to $1.4 billion particularly notable. Analysts attribute this jump to his diversified investments ranging from his Red Chillies production and VFX ventures to real estate holdings in the Middle East and stakes in global cricket franchises.

As Shah Rukh Khan seizes the top global spot among actors by net worth, his financial clout now stands shoulder to shoulder with the biggest names in entertainment.

Varun Dhawan reveals he got drunk for ‘JugJugg Jeeyo’

**Varun Dhawan Reveals He Got Drunk While Shooting for ‘JugJugg Jeeyo’**

*By Apoorva Rastogi | Oct 01, 2025, 05:34 PM*

Bollywood actor Varun Dhawan recently opened up about an unusual method he and co-star Maniesh Paul used to portray drunkenness authentically in the film *JugJugg Jeeyo*. In a candid interview with Pinkvilla, Dhawan revealed that both actors started drinking alcohol early in the morning to get into character — but things quickly got out of hand.

### The Scene That Required Real Drunkenness

Dhawan recalled the climax scene of the film featuring Anil Kapoor, where his character delivers a drunken speech during a vow renewal ceremony. “During that climax scene with Anil sir, when they are renewing their vows, I get drunk and I give a speech. So we were supposed to be drunk,” he said. To capture the essence of the moment, he and Maniesh began drinking at 7:30 am. By 2:00 pm, both actors were slurring their words, experiencing the effects of their early morning drinking session firsthand.

### Re-shoots Due to Intoxication

Unsurprisingly, their genuine drunkenness made it difficult to finish the scene properly. Dhawan revealed, “And the next day, the shoot continued, so we had to drink again.” This commitment to authenticity involved multiple takes under the influence to get the perfect shot.

### What’s Next for Varun Dhawan?

Aside from *JugJugg Jeeyo*, Varun Dhawan’s upcoming film is *Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari*, which also stars Janhvi Kapoor, Sanya Malhotra, and Rohit Saraf in pivotal roles. The movie is set to release in theaters on Thursday, October 2.

EXCLUSIVE: ‘Flu Shot Cheerleader’ Vows She’s Not Done With Mario Lopez Yet… After Defamation Lawsuit She Filed Against Him Was Dismissed

**Former NFL Cheerleader Vows to Appeal After Judge Dismisses Defamation Claims Against Mario Lopez**

*Published: September 30, 2025, 7:05 p.m. ET*

The former NFL cheerleader who sued actor Mario Lopez for defamation is determined to continue her legal battle, RadarOnline.com can report, even after a judge dismissed her claims.

Desiree Townsend told RadarOnline.com that she plans to file appeals and is exploring other avenues against Lopez despite the setback.

Late last week, a judge granted Lopez’s anti-SLAPP motion in full, striking down all claims brought against him. Additionally, Lopez is now entitled to seek reimbursement of his legal fees from Townsend.

However, Townsend remains optimistic and looks forward to pursuing her case further. “It’s on to the appellate courts now!” she declared. “This is where real change happens and where case law is shaped.”

Before moving forward, Townsend will focus on appealing the restraining order Lopez obtained against her, which requires her to stay at least 100 yards away from him and his family.

“Right now, my focus is on appealing the restraining order decision,” she explained. “One of the grounds for the appeal is that the anti-SLAPP motion was never properly heard, and Mario’s team presented no opposition evidence.”

### Desiree Townsend Strikes Back Against Lopez

Townsend expressed particular frustration with Lopez’s legal representation. She stated, “His attorneys couldn’t answer basic questions, like why he posted the video in the first place or how it related to any public controversy about vaccines or the flu in the middle of June.”

She added, “They even went so far as to complain on the record that I need to stop making fun of Geragos & Geragos on TikTok and ‘warned’ the court they might sue me.”

In response, attorneys Alexandra Kazarian and Daniel JV Tapetillo released a statement to RadarOnline.com expressing their desire to move on from the case.

“We are hopeful this complete dismissal of her lawsuit, coming on the heels of the Restraining Order against this woman, will end her fixation and obsession with our client,” they said.

### Lopez’s Defense: Freedom of Speech

Lopez has maintained that his statements are protected under the First Amendment right to free speech. His legal team filed the anti-SLAPP motion, designed to quickly dismiss lawsuits against public figures when claims threaten free expression.

In prior court documents, Lopez’s attorneys argued, “Defendant alleges that any representations or omissions alleged in the Complaint were protected by Defendant’s First Amendment Rights to Freedom of Speech.”

They further stated, “Defendant’s statements were purely opinions, and not statements of fact, and no reasonable person who heard the statements would have interpreted them as anything but opinions.”

### Townsend Aims to ‘Create Change’

Initially, Townsend filed a $10 million lawsuit against Lopez, which she later increased to $25 million. She also added Lopez’s law firm, Geragos & Geragos, to the complaint and raised her damages demand to $50 million.

Despite the high sums at stake, Townsend pledged to donate any award to the Women In Media charity, which advocates for gender balance in the film and entertainment industries.

For her, the lawsuit is about more than financial compensation. “My hope is that these cases will leave a lasting legacy and set important precedent for people in California and beyond,” she shared. “A trial court win would have only benefitted me personally, but as I’ve said before, these cases were never about money; they’re about creating change.”

Sydney Sweeney Channels Britney Spears By Wearing Same Starry Metal Mesh Dress at her Space-Themed Birthday Party Amid Rumors She’s Set to Play Singer in Biopic

**Sydney Sweeney Channels Britney Spears for Space-Themed 28th Birthday Bash**

*Published: September 30, 2025, 5:30 p.m. ET*

Sydney Sweeney paid tribute to pop icon Britney Spears by wearing the same starry metal mesh dress the singer donned during her space-themed birthday celebration. The *Euphoria* actress celebrated turning 28 in style, sparking rumors that she might be in the running to portray Spears in an upcoming biopic about the legendary performer.

### Out Of This World Party

The dress, famously worn by Spears during her *Circus* era, was more than just an outfit — Sweeney even recreated the iconic photo shoot pose by sitting on the floor with her legs to the side, mirroring how Spears promoted her 2008 album.

Sweeney’s birthday bash featured an A-list guest list including Glen Powell, Jeff Bezos and his wife Lauren Sánchez Bezos, Wiz Khalifa, and Sexyy Red. According to sources, other invitees included Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis, Seth MacFarlane, Jessica Alba, Justin Theroux, and Jen Meyer.

Guests embraced the space theme enthusiastically, dressing as aliens, astronauts, space cowboys, and more in a truly out-of-this-world celebration.

### Rumored Relationship: Sydney Sweeney and Scooter Braun

Among the famous faces at the party was music manager Scooter Braun. While neither has publicly confirmed their relationship status, insiders say Sweeney is “not exclusively dating anyone right now but is having fun with Scooter.” One source noted, “It is not serious,” explaining that the *Housemaid* star is enjoying her “single era without any pressure.”

Just one day after the birthday event, Sweeney was seen with Braun, who is 16 years her senior, enjoying a night out at Universal Studios Hollywood’s Halloween Horror Nights. The pair were even photographed holding hands.

### “It Is Hot And Heavy”

A separate insider revealed, “They talk every day and see each other often; it is hot and heavy. I don’t want to say the L word, but it feels like the L word. They seem very much in love, or at least incredibly in lust.”

According to the source, their attraction is fueled by Sweeney’s vibrant energy and Braun’s “old soul” guidance, helping her navigate sudden fame and a rapidly growing career. “He gives great advice. They have what each other wants,” the insider added.

### Sparks Since June

The couple reportedly met at Lauren Sánchez and Jeff Bezos’s wedding in Italy on June 27, making their connection nearly three months old.

Their romance has recently been on display during a romantic dinner date in Brentwood, Los Angeles. The pair were seen seated across from each other at Jon and Vinny’s, a popular Italian eatery.

At the dinner, Sweeney sported her blonde hair down, wearing a dark top, shorts that showcased her toned legs, and calf-height boots. Braun wore a white long-sleeved T-shirt, had a short haircut, and black prescription glasses.

After their meal, the duo left together and got into a black SUV, further fueling speculation about their relationship status.

Sydney Sweeney’s star continues to rise, both professionally and personally, as she celebrates her birthday and explores new chapters in her life. Stay tuned for more updates on her career and rumored romance with Scooter Braun.
