Ariana Grande & Ethan Slater, “Wicked” Co-Star She Allegedly Began Dating Before His Divorce, Remain Together Despite Breakup Rumors

Despite the internet chatter, love is still in the air for #ArianaGrande and #EthanSlater.

Insiders told TMZ that the #Wicked co-stars are still “absolutely together romantically.” Breakup speculation ramped up after the U.K. premiere of Wicked: For Good on Monday night (Nov. 10), where the pair posed on opposite sides during press photos. While media reports and fans pushed the idea of a split, the duo reportedly maintained affection behind the scenes; witnesses say they were seen “holding hands and being affectionate backstage.”

Their relationship has remained under scrutiny, with many questioning the timing of their romance and the status of their previous relationships. Ariana had recently finalized her divorce when things turned romantic, while Ethan was still married to #LillyJay. Public criticism intensified after Lilly addressed the alleged affair, saying, “[Ariana’s] the story, really. Not a girl’s girl. My family is just collateral damage.”

Happy to hear Ariana and Ethan are still going strong?

Zarine Khan Once Left A Promising Modelling Career For Sanjay Khan — Here’s How It All Began

Veteran star Zarine Khan’s passing on November 7, 2025, has left many in the film industry and fans reminiscing about her grace, charm, and extraordinary life choices. As tributes pour in, one anecdote that stands out is her love story with Sanjay Khan and leaving her career for the same. Zarine Khatrak was a promising young model whose future in fashion looked bright. But fate and love had other plans when she crossed paths with a young, ambitious actor named Sanjay Khan.

How Zarine Khan Met Sanjay Khan — A Beachside “Hi” That Started It All

It was a sunny morning in Juhu when 14-year-old Zarine Khatrak, then a schoolgirl and budding beauty, went for a walk with her friend along the shoreline. The dashing young Pathans, including Sanjay Khan (known as Abbas then), had just moved into her neighbourhood.

As fate would have it, she noticed Abbas walking ahead of them. He turned around and playfully wrote “Hi” in the sand. Her friend replied with another “Hi,” and soon after, he caught up to them, starting a conversation that would mark the beginning of something unforgettable.

Later that day, Abbas invited her for coffee. Dressed in white with a book in hand, he impressed young Zarine with his charm, intellect, and confidence. What began as a casual meeting soon turned into a deep connection. Within days, Abbas expressed his feelings, and although Zarine asked for time, their bond only grew stronger with each passing moment.

Zarine Khatrak — The Model Who Gave It All Up For Love

Zarine Khatrak, before getting involved in a relationship with Sanjay Khan, was a popular model. She was even touted to be the next Miss India. Persis Khambatta, a fashionista and supermodel, wanted to take her on a two-year contract in London. In an interview with Filmfare, she revealed how her then-boyfriend and later husband, Sanjay, was possessive about it. She said, “My boyfriend was so possessive, he said, ‘Either you go to London or stay with me’. I chose to be with him, and I’m glad. Today I have a family.”

Zarine gave up modelling at the age of 17. She and Abbas (Sanjay Khan’s real name) started living together in a rented flat, for which they had to pay Rs 400. However, they couldn’t afford it and had to sublet it to Balraj Sahani’s cousin at Rs 250. They only had a fan, which they shared between them. But that flat turned out to be lucky. She said, “Soon Abbas began signing films. He bagged Satyen Bose’s Dosti and Chetan Anand’s Haqeeqat in the early ’60s. Both were silver jubilees, and Abbas came to be known as the silver jubilee star.” They got married on April 16, 1966, and had three daughters and a son – Farah, Simone, Sussanne, and Zayed.

But their marriage wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows. When Zarine Khan was pregnant with Zayed, rumors about Sanjay Khan having an affair with Zeenat Aman started to circulate. In the same interview, she admitted, “It came as a shock. I went through much emotional turmoil when I was carrying Zayed. But I had self-confidence. I’d wear six-inch heels in the ninth month of my pregnancy just to be stylish, just to keep up a brave front. I was heartbroken!” She further added how she gave an ultimatum to Sanjay and shared, “I threw a tantrum and gave him an ultimatum that I’d walk out. That’s when things returned to normalcy. Maybe it was just ‘a mad wind’ that blew over.”

Following this, their marriage returned to normalcy, although people and the media never stopped talking about Sanjay’s affair. She lived her life to the fullest and in the most stylish way.

Scream 7's Matthew Lillard began career as scare actor

Scream 7’s Matthew Lillard began career as scare actor

Matthew Lillard began his acting career as a haunt actor.

Scream actor Matthew Lillard

Aged 19, the Scream star ran around scaring people with his “clothes ripped off” during a Halloween event at Knott’s Berry Farm, an amusement park in Buena Park, California.

Matthew, 55, recalled to People: “I was a haunt actor at Knott’s Scary Farm when I was 19 years old.

“And I ran around the asylum with my clothes ripped off and scaring people. And that’s one of my first jobs I ever had.

“I don’t think I’ve ever told anyone that.”

Despite having been a scare actor, the Scooby-Doo live-action movie actor still gets petrified when he goes through haunted houses.

Matthew admitted: “Last year I went through a [haunted house] at Universal Studios […] and I was like, ‘Oh, this is going to be lame.’

“It scared the bejesus out of me.”

However, the actor believes it is “exhilarating” to be scared.

Matthew explained: “I think that that’s why [the horror] industry is so big and so popular. […] I think that people long to feel things, right? That’s why comedies are great, and horror movies are great, because you feel things sitting in a dark theatre.

“And this [is] spooky season, like going to a haunt or going to a local haunted house. I mean, all of that is really why this is such a juggernaut of a holiday.”

Elsewhere, the star said reprising his role as one of the Ghostface killers, Stu, in the upcoming slasher Scream 7 – set to be released in 2026 – was “a risk I was excited to take”.

Matthew – whose Scream alter ego met his bloody end in the original 1996 movie – told People: “I’m nervous, because at this point in my life, the only thing I can do is sort of ruin how people consider Stu. [Especially] if I come back and I suck or I was lame.

“I haven’t seen the movie yet. I don’t know if it works, but it’s a risk. And it’s a risk that I was excited to take. At the same time, I’m nervous to see the outcome. I hope people like it.”

Even so, the Five Nights at Freddy’s actor is confident Scream 7 will be “fantastic”.

He added: “I’m really excited for people to see it. It’s not gonna ruin the franchise, that’s the good news.”

Pan-India Dream | When The Cracks Began To Show | Part 2 | Glamsham.com

If the first wave of pan-India films created hysteria, the second wave has met with sobering reality. The sheen of cross-industry casting is fading, exposed by projects that could not match their own hype.

The most striking case is Yash Raj Films’ War 2. On paper, it looked unmissable — Bollywood’s Hrithik Roshan paired with Telugu megastar NTR Jr, wrapped in the sheen of the YRF Spy Universe. The film opened strong, but within a week the numbers were sliding. Despite its global release and multi-language promotions, the film ended up bleeding money. What stung more than the financial loss was the collateral damage: YRF’s ambitious spin-off centered on NTR’s character, pitched as the South’s gateway into the Spy Universe, was quietly shelved. The promise of a long-term partnership dissolved overnight.

Down south, a similar story unfolded. Rajinikanth’s Coolie was meant to be more than another superstar vehicle; it was also a platform for Aamir Khan to step into Tamil cinema, if only for a cameo. The plan was clear — build momentum for a larger project between Aamir and director Lokesh Kanagaraj, a fusion of Bollywood perfectionism with Tamil storytelling bravado. But the cameo landed with a thud, failing to ignite either hype or box office fireworks. Soon after, the much-hyped Aamir–Lokesh project was shelved.

And then came the tremors from Kalki 2898 AD. The sci-fi epic was perhaps the most ambitious Indian production in years, and Deepika Padukone was its beating heart on the Bollywood front. But as the sequel geared up, news broke that Deepika had walked away. The producers issued a polite statement about “commitment,” but trade whispers told a murkier tale — a reduced role, fee disputes, and working condition demands that clashed with the production’s scale. What was intended to be a flagship pan-India saga suddenly found itself stripped of its leading lady.

These are not small hiccups; they are symptoms. Together, they suggest that the very model of pan-India filmmaking — built on inflated budgets, cross-industry star casting, and franchise planning — is facing resistance. The cracks are now visible, and the industry is watching closely.

Stay tuned for Part 3
