'We Were Told Not To Take Sunny-Dimple's Pics Together,' Reveals Paparazzo

Veteran paparazzo Ramakant Munde shared inside details of how photographers accessed celebrities before paparazzi culture and social media began. Recalling an unwritten rule from that era, Munde said they were told not to photograph Dimple Kapadia and Sunny Deol together. Dimple Kapadia and Sunny Deol were rumoured to be in a relationship, though they never acknowledged it publicly. "Sometimes they would be together on a film set, at an event, or during a function.

Restaurant Recovery: Macquarie Has Picked Winners, And Jubilant Isn't On The List

India's quick-service restaurant (QSR) industry is showing early signs of demand recovery, but Macquarie highlights rising costs and intensifying competition from food-delivery aggregators as reasons for its cautiousness. According to Macquarie, post-fourth-quarter trends indicate a gradual improvement in dine-in demand across restaurant chains. Within the sector, Macquarie remains most constructive on franchise operators Devyani International, Sapphire Foods and Westlife Foodworld. However, the recovery remains uneven and is being overshadowed by inflationary pressures and the growing dominance of delivery platforms such as Zomato and Swiggy.
