When rude shopkeeper Big B couldn’t afford £120 tie
Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan once shared a memorable story on Kaun Banega Crorepati about a snobby London shopkeeper who scoffed at him for eyeing a £120 tie, assuming he couldn’t afford it. Instead of reacting angrily, Bachchan calmly bought ten ties on the spot—turning the moment into a quiet but powerful lesson in dignity and pride.
Editor’s Note: It’s a small but satisfying reminder that humility and grace often speak louder than arrogance. Bachchan’s response wasn’t just about wealth—it was about self-respect and subtly challenging stereotypes. In a world where people are often judged at a glance, this story resonates as a classy clapback.

Lionsgate’s ‘The Hunger Games: Sunrise On The Reaping’ Sells Big To Host Of International Buyers
PositiveEntertainment
Lionsgate is already cashing in on the next Hunger Games flick, Sunrise On The Reaping, even before cameras start rolling this summer. They’ve lined up a bunch of international distributors—like Germany’s Leonine and France’s Metropolitan—to handle the film overseas, while Lionsgate keeps control in North America and the UK. The movie, the sixth in the massively successful franchise, is slated to hit theaters in late 2026.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another sequel announcement—it’s proof that The Hunger Games still has serious global pull. Locking in international buyers early signals confidence (and likely big money), which is a big deal in an industry where franchises often lose steam. For fans, it’s a heads-up: Panem isn’t going anywhere.
Netflix Acquires Rom-Com Spec Script ‘I Don’t Know Who You Are Anymore’ From Writer Matt Lawton (EXCLUSIVE)
PositiveEntertainment
Netflix just snagged a new romantic comedy script titled I Don’t Know Who You Are Anymore from writer Matt Lawton. While the plot’s still hush-hush, it’s being pitched as a mashup of Palm Springs and The Family Man—so think time loops meets heartfelt relationship drama. Lawton’s no rookie, either; he’s been working on Fox’s The Great North, so he’s got comedy chops.
Editor’s Note: Netflix is doubling down on rom-coms, and this could be another crowd-pleaser if it nails that quirky-but-relatable vibe. For fans of the genre, it’s a sign there’s more fresh, lighthearted content on the way—and for Hollywood watchers, it’s another example of streamers snapping up promising spec scripts to stay ahead in the content wars.
Lionsgate Partners With International Distributors For ‘The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping’
PositiveEntertainment
Lionsgate is teaming up with a bunch of international distributors to make sure the next Hunger Games movie, Sunrise on the Reaping, hits screens worldwide. While the U.S. and U.K. will get it first on November 26, 2026, these deals mean fans everywhere else won’t have to wait too long—or miss out entirely.
Editor’s Note: Big studios don’t just drop blockbusters in a couple of countries and call it a day. Securing global distribution early means The Hunger Games keeps its massive fanbase hooked—no matter where they live. It’s also a sign that Lionsgate’s betting big on this franchise revival, even years down the line.

NeutralEntertainment
Rob Kardashian, the famously private member of the Kardashian-Jenner clan, opened up in a rare interview with his sister Khloé about why he ditched reality TV. He admitted he’s just not built for the spotlight and prefers a quieter life away from the cameras. No drama, no scandal—just a guy who realized fame wasn’t for him.
Editor’s Note: In a world where the Kardashians are synonymous with oversharing, Rob’s choice to step back is a refreshing reminder that fame isn’t a one-size-fits-all gig. It’s a relatable take—not everyone thrives under constant scrutiny, even if you’re born into it. Plus, it gives fans a rare glimpse into the quieter side of a family that’s usually all about the spotlight.
