My Path Belongs To Me, Says Kush Sinha
New Delhi: Actor-politician Shatrughan Sinha's son Kush Sinha, who is making a name for himself by directing short films, is not intimidated by the success of his father and sister Sonakshi. He says they have their own paths and he won't let that affect him. "No pressure at all. I respect what my sister and father have achieved but their path belongs to them. My path will belong to me," Kush told IANS. He makes short films with social messages.
First, he made "Khoon Main Hai", which featured Kajal Aggarwal and Aparshakti Khurana, to highlight the importance of blood donation. Kush promoted the 'Beti Bachao Beti Padhao' campaign through his second short film "Mauke Ke Pankh", which features Sonakshi and Shatrughan. What about directing a feature film? "(I am) currently reading scripts. Looking at directing a feature," said Kush, who was an assistant director on "Dabangg" and "Saawariya". Kush loves the idea of getting in front of the camera with his whole family.
"But for it to happen, we will need an excellent script and roles that suit everyone," he added. Talking about his experience of working with his family members in "Mauke Ke Pankh", Kush said: "(It was) an emotional experience because this is the first time that I or anybody else has bought them together for a campaign/film. "(And) professionally fulfilling because both of them have enhanced the film by contributing their time and talent." (IANS)

A woman was killed and four other civilians were injured in Uri in Jammu and Kashmir's Baramulla district as the Pakistan army intensified artillery fire across the Line of Control (LoC) in Kashmir, officials said, adding that a large number of houses have also been damaged in the cross-border shelling.
Reports state that a Pakistani shell struck the vehicle the woman was traveling in, resulting in her death. The woman was identified as Nargis Bashir, and some of her family members had boarded a vehicle to flee from the Razarwani village in Uri that was hit by the mortar and artillery shells from Pakistan.
In an attempt to educate and make people aware about the consequences of war amid Pakistan's continuous firing in the border states, the Delhi government did a mock drill to test air raid sirens installed at the Public Works Department (PWD) at ITO and asked people to not react out of panic.
District Magistrate (Central) G. Sudhakar also urged people to remain calm and not be alarmed when they hear the sirens.
At least twice, sirens sounded during the drill, which started at 3 pm.
PWD Minister Parvesh Verma said 40-50 more such sirens will be installed across the national capital, each of which will cover an area of 8 km.
Residents present in Rajouri along the Line of Control have started moving to safer areas after heavy cross-border shelling and attempted drone and missile attacks last night by Pakistan. All drone and missile attacks were intercepted and foiled by India's air defence system.

Pakistan has claimed that its Economic Affairs Division account on social media has been hacked and called the post where it appealed for more loans from the international community owing to losses from Operation Sindoor "fake."
In a post on X, Pakistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs Fact Checker shared a picture of the post and mentioned that it was "fake." Additionally, it asserted that the account had undergone hacking.
A missile-like object is found deep inside the Dal Lake after loud explosions were heard on Saturday morning in Srinagar, which is a major tourist attraction. The defense ministry also confirms that Pakistan has intruded into Srinagar's airspace in a press release.
Since the early hours of Saturday morning (10th May), Srinagar has been rocked with multiple explosions, and now electricity is taken off in various places across Kashmir. The reason for this is yet to be determined, as reports indicate multiple places in Kashmir have lost power. The Indian Army released a statement after the press briefing, where they mentioned that they have attacked and neutralized multiple terrorist launchpads in a coordinated fire assault, razing them to cinders.
