Rimi Sen files Rs 50 crores lawsuit against Land Rover over allegedly faulty vehicle: Report
Rimi Sen has taken legal action against car manufacturer Land Rover, seeking Rs 50 crores in compensation for what she describes as a “faulty” vehicle, according to a report by NDTV. The actor, who purchased the luxury car for Rs 92 lakh in 2020, alleges that the vehicle has caused her significant distress due to persistent defects and inadequate repairs.
Issues with the Vehicle and Dealer Response
According to Rimi Sen’s complaint, the car was purchased from Satish Motors Pvt. Ltd., an authorised dealer for Jaguar Land Rover, and came with a warranty valid until January 2023. However, the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdowns meant the car was seldom used until restrictions were lifted. Once she began using the vehicle regularly, Sen claims she encountered multiple defects, including problems with the sunroof, sound system, and rear-end camera.
One of the most significant incidents occurred on August 25, 2022, when the allegedly malfunctioning rear-end camera led to a collision with a pillar. Despite reporting these issues to the dealer, Sen contends that her complaints were not taken seriously. She was reportedly asked to provide evidence of the defects before any action would be taken, leading to a cycle of repairs where one issue was supposedly fixed only for another to emerge.
Claims of Manufacturing and Maintenance Defects
In her legal notice, Rimi Sen asserted that the car is defective not only in its manufacturing but also in its subsequent maintenance by the authorized dealer. She claims the vehicle has been sent for repairs over ten times, yet the issues persist. This, she argues, has caused her considerable mental harassment and inconvenience.
As a result, Sen is demanding Rs 50 crores in compensation for the distress she has endured, along with an additional Rs 10 lakh to cover her legal expenses. She is also seeking the replacement of the defective vehicle.

Kangana Ranaut claims Emergency DENIED certification by CBFC amid ban calls: “I am determined to even go to court to protect my film”
Kangana Ranaut has recently voiced concerns about her upcoming film, Emergency. The actress revealed that the movie has not yet received certification from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). In an interview with IANS, Kangana claimed that while the film was initially cleared by the censor, it was later denied the final certificate due to what she describes as “a lot of drama.”
Kangana expressed her frustration, stating, “There are a lot of issues with the censor as well. I was very confident that I got the certification. But now they are not giving me my certificate.” She suggested that the CBFC has become hesitant, possibly due to external pressures, and warned that she is ready to go to court to ensure her film’s release.
Ban Calls and Controversies Surrounding Emergency
The challenges surrounding Emergency extend beyond certification issues. The film has been facing calls for a ban, particularly in Telangana. A delegation from the Telangana Sikh Society, led by former IPS officer Tejdeep Kaur Menon, has accused the film of portraying the Sikh community as terrorists and anti-nationals. The Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee (SGPC) and the Akhal Takht have also demanded an immediate ban, alleging that the film attempts to “character assassinate” Sikhs.
Kangana addressed these controversies, while speaking about the importance of preserving historical accuracy. “We have to show history. An almost 70-year-old woman was shot 30-35 times in her house… Someone must have killed her. Now you want to show it… Because apparently, you think you can hurt someone. But you have to show the history,” she remarked.
Kangana’s Determination to Defend Her Film
Despite the obstacles, Kangana remains steadfast in her commitment to release Emergency on schedule. She expressed her determination to fight for her film’s right to be seen, even if it means taking legal action. “I am determined to even go to court to protect my film. To save my right as an individual,” she asserted.
Kangana also addressed concerns about creative liberty, stating, “If they are going to suppress the voice of an artist and my creative liberty… Some people have wielded their guns, and we are not afraid of guns.”
Emergency is a political drama that Kangana Ranaut announced in 2021. However, she clarified that the film is not a biopic of Indira Gandhi, despite the central role of the former Prime Minister in the storyline. Kangana not only plays the lead role but also directs the film. The cast includes notable actors such as Anupam Kher, Milind Soman, Mahima Chaudhry, and Shreyas Talpade, with the late Satish Kaushik appearing as Jagjivan Ram, the former Deputy Prime Minister of India. It is scheduled to release on September 6.

AP Dhillon unveils EP ‘The Brownprint’ featuring Ayra Starr, Jazzy B, Shinda Kahlon and more! Deets inside
Acclaimed singer-songwriter, rapper and music producer AP Dhillon has unveiled his highly anticipated new EP ‘The Brownprint’. Out now via Republic Records in partnership with Universal Music Canada, this nine-track release marks a significant milestone in Dhillon’s career, showcasing his artistic evolution as an international phenomenon and inviting audiences to his next era.
AP Dhillon states, “I’m calling my EP ‘The Brownprint’ because I want to show our community that there are many avenues to put out Punjabi music. I want us to think of the bigger picture and tap into the impossible. It’s no longer about creating history; it’s about building a legacy for future generations.”
The title track, ‘Brownprint’ featuring longtime collaborator Shinda Kahlon is a gritty anthem of authenticity, loyalty and strength. The track celebrates the indomitable spirit of the people from Majha, a region in Punjab known for its valor and resilience. The lyrics, deeply rooted in the warrior-ready-for-battleground ethos, convey a sense of unwavering determination and a refusal to be intimidated by challenges. Continuing in the same vein, ‘315’, a standout track from the EP, is a powerful tribute to AP Dhillon’s Indian roots and community. Collaborating with Punjabi music veteran Jazzy B and Shinda Kahlon, the gritty song is an aggressive declaration of invincibility, honoring the strength and resilience of the Punjabi community. Its classic West Coast beat seamlessly blends nostalgic and modern sounds, creating a captivating listening experience that embodies a clear message: this crew is not to be trifled with, and their unity is unbreakable.
The ground-breaking EP also features collaborations with artists from all over the world, flexing Dhillon’s impressive artistic versatility to create art that transcends cultural boundaries and presents a heady concoction of musical styles fusing genres such as rock, Afrobeat, hip hop, funk, soul and Punjabi music. Lithe acoustic guitar underlines ‘Losing Myself’, where Dhillon teams up with Atlanta rap titan Gunna to showcase a poignant track that explores themes of love, loss and heartbreak. Written by Dhillon’s father, Rashpal Singh, who makes his songwriting debut on this track, ‘Losing Myself’ features Dhillon’s dynamic vocals alongside an irresistible cameo from the hip-hop megastar. The spicy love anthem ‘Bora Bora’ featuring history-making Nigerian-born Afrobeats superstar Ayra Starr effortlessly blends breezy production with beach-ready energy and luxurious vibes whilst highlighting the concepts of loyalty, connection and exclusivity. Introducing upcoming talent Syra to the music world, ‘Sweet Flower’ is a vibrant and cheerful track that reflects Dhillon’s aptitude to create infectious dance tracks.
The EP takes listeners on a heartfelt emotional joyride, exploring a range of introspective, offering a glimpse into Dhillon’s personal experiences and his ability to evoke raw emotions through his music. Tracks like the ‘Distance’ and ‘After Midnight’ delve into the complexities of human relationships and are a poignant lament of abandonment, betrayal and separation. Interestingly ‘After Midnight’ brings to the fore an experimental side to Dhillon with the music superstar sampling the rock genre for the very first time on a Punjabi track. Adding another layer of ingenuity, Dhillon expresses his ease of maneuvering between two contrasting musical styles and soundscapes on the bonus track ‘To Be Continued…’. Reimagining the upbeat ‘Distance’, ‘To Be Continued’ presents itself as a poignant emotional love ballad.
‘The Brownprint’ was teased earlier this month with the release of Salman Khan-Sanjay Dutt starrer ‘Old Money’ which has already amassed over 20 million worldwide streams and has made its’ debut on Billboard Canadian Hot 100.
AP Dhillon has co-produced the majority of the EP, with AzizTheShake, Luca Mauti, Ramoon, Roc Legion, Gray Hawken, Tompa, Ben10k, Intense, Chris LaRocca, La+ch, Brendan Thomas, Madeleine Kay and Herman Atwal also contributing to the project.
With ‘The Brownprint’, AP Dhillon is cementing his status as a global music star and a flag bearer of the global brown community. As he continues to push boundaries and evolve as an artist, stay tuned for fresh exciting music announcements from AP Dhillon in the future!

Besides this, Rajkummar recently made headlines for sharing a photo on his social media handle, in which he was seen donning a mini skirt on the sets of Stree 2. However, the scene, in which Rajkummar opted for a cross-dressing look, did not make it to the final cut. Speaking of the same, a source told Bollywood Hungama, “It involved Rajkummar cross-dressing and turning into a woman to lure the villain, Sarkata. This is because Sarkata attacked only females and hence, Vicky (Rajkummar Rao) takes this unusual and risky step.”
The source further revealed, “Jana (Abhishek Banerjee) is also a part of this scene. He fails to recognize Vicky and mistakes him for someone else, adding to the comic quotient of the scene.” Another source said that Vicky’s heels break, and it also contributes to the madness. Some comedy also happens over his wig, as per the source.
