Actor Nicole Kidman (above) said she felt out of place after the split with actor and former husband Tom Cruise (left). Recalling the time when the 50-year-old star won the best actress Oscar for her portrayal of Virginia Woolf in 2003 film The Hours (2012), Kidman said she had no one to celebrate with her, reported The Daily Telegraph. “I still don’t have a life, what is wrong with me? Who do I jump on the bed with, and order pancakes with?” recounted the Lion (2016) actor.
The Academy Awardwinning actor was married to Cruise for 11 years and they parted ways in 2001.
They have daughter Isabella, (24) and son Connor, (22). Kidman is currently married to singer Keith Urban and has two daughters Sunday, 9 and Faith, 7 (through surrogacy).
Actor comedian Vir Das (above) is elated after being named one of the top 10 comedians in the world to watch out for by Variety magazine. However, he also plans to make use of his popularity by providing a platform to budding comedians from India to showcase their talent.
Vir, whose company rolls out new stand-up comic acts and content, is working on a list of places across the country where he can travel and meet standup comedians. They might perform their acts in Hindi but must be jocular and possess the talent to tickle one’s funny bones.
“In India, we have amazing stand-up comedians, who have great sense of humour. But they do not get an ideal platform to showcase their talent. We are trying to set up a platform, where these talented artists can showcase their talent,” he says.
