The world of Bollywood and Punjabi cinema is never short on drama, and today is no different.

These are the controversies that you just can’t miss.
1. RCB’s Instagram Account Crashes After IPL 2025 Victory
Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) finally lived up to their slogan “Ee Sala Cup Namde” as they lifted their first-ever IPL trophy in 18 years. While the stadium roared in celebration, something else silently crashed โ RCBโs official Instagram account. Yes, you read that right. The celebratory posts by fans and celebrities caused such a digital storm that their Instagram page momentarily went dark.
Insiders claim that the fan traffic was so high, Instagramโs servers could not handle the pressure. Fans flooded the comment sections with love for Virat Kohli, calling it a “redemption arc” for the star batsman. RCBโs win was not just a sporting event; it became a digital revolution, taking over timelines and even trending above national politics for a whole day. This crash is a testament to the insane popularity of cricket and the love people have for their team โ but it also hints that even social media giants aren’t prepared for the madness that IPL finales bring.
2. Hina Khan Marries Longtime Beau Ricky Jaiswal Amidst Cancer Battle
In what is being called a brave and emotional decision, Bollywood actress Hina Khan, who recently revealed her stage 3 breast cancer diagnosis, tied the knot with her longtime boyfriend Ricky Jaiswal. The quiet ceremony was attended by close friends and family, but the internet had a field day speculating if this was a rushed marriage or a deeply personal act of love and resilience.
While many netizens have lauded the couple for their strength, some trolls have begun questioning whether this was a publicity stunt. Critics argue that the wedding amid her health battle was more of a strategic media moment than a private celebration. However, Hinaโs fans have shut down the negativity, saying that love deserves celebration at all stages. Either way, the wedding has brought attention back to the actress, who has proven time and again that she can face both life and limelight with equal courage.
3. RCB Victory Parade Turns Tragic with Stampede Casualties
What was supposed to be a historic victory parade turned into a scene of sorrow and chaos. In Bengaluru, where lakhs of fans gathered to cheer their winning team, a massive stampede occurred, leaving several fans injured and causing tragic casualties. The administration is being blamed for failing to manage the crowd, and videos circulating online show disturbing visuals of the chaos.
The very joy of winning a long-awaited trophy was overshadowed by this heart-wrenching incident. Many have raised questions about why such a huge gathering was allowed without proper safety measures. As investigations begin, fans have taken to social media to demand accountability from the authorities as well as the event organizers. The question remains โ was the cost of this celebration too high?
4. Neena Guptaโs Birthday Outfit Sparks Ageism and Feminism Clash
Bollywood Actress Neena Gupta turned 66 and decided to celebrate it in style โ wearing a deep cleavage dress during the promotions of her upcoming film “Metro In Dino.” What shouldโve been a celebration of age-defying fashion turned into a battlefield between supporters and trolls.
While many fans applauded her for breaking age stereotypes and embracing her bold personality, conservative critics quickly jumped in, calling it โattention-seekingโ and โinappropriate.โ This isn’t the first time Neena has taken a bold step, but her latest appearance has divided the internet again. Itโs a classic example of how society still canโt digest older women embracing their bodies and choosing confidence over convention.
5. Housefull 5 Faces Plagiarism Allegations Days Before Release
Just when Housefull 5 was riding high on promotional buzz, a major storm hit the makers. A choreographer has accused the production house of lifting dance sequences directly from his viral videos. While the team has neither denied nor accepted the claims, the silence is only fuelling more fire.
Some sources claim that this isnโt the first time the franchise has been involved in such creative borrowing. The internet is buzzing with clips comparing the movie’s trailer with original viral reels, and fans are starting to question the originality of the entire project. As the release date inches closer, one wonders if this controversy will dent its box office prospects or simply add more eyeballs to the film. Because, letโs be honest โ controversy sells!
