Kapil Sharma’s Café Attacked For Third Time In Canada; Bishnoi Gang Claims Responsibility: Deets Inside!

Kapil Sharma’s Kap’s Cafe in Surrey, Canada, was targeted in a third shooting, reportedly by associates of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi. Fortunately, no one was injured in the incident, but repeated attacks have heightened security concerns for the comedian and his establishment. On Thursday, a gunman opened fire at the popular café in a brazen act, which was captured on video and circulated widely. The repeated assaults have alarmed local authorities and fans alike, raising questions about the safety of public figures and their businesses. Kapil Sharma and his team are reviewing security measures to prevent further incidents.

Associates of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi have claimed responsibility for the recent incident. Kulveer Sidhu and Goldy Dhillon publicly acknowledged their involvement through a social media post, confirming their role in the matter and drawing attention to their affiliation with Bishnoi’s network. The announcement has sparked widespread discussion online and in media circles.

Here Are the Full Details of the Shooting

The video circulating online depicts several rounds being fired at the café, which had just reopened following damage from earlier attacks. Witnesses reported that the shooters were unmasked and acted aggressively, heightening fears about public safety and the potential for further violence.

In a social media post, the individuals stated: “Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh. Today’s firing at Caps Cafe, Surrey, was carried out by me, Kulveer Sidhu, and Goldy Dhillon. We hold no grudge against the general public. Those who owe us or cheat us will be warned. Bollywood individuals who speak against our religion should also be prepared, bullets can come from anywhere.”

Authorities are probing the motives behind a social media post citing unpaid dues and alleged insults to religious sentiments. Previously, the cafe’s windows were smashed twice, though thankfully no one was harmed. These repeated attacks compelled the cafe to shut down for several days each time, disrupting business operations. The incidents have heightened safety concerns for Sharma and his staff, who now face ongoing uncertainty. Investigators are examining both the content of the post and potential connections to the prior attacks to prevent further threats.

Kapil Sharma

Following the first two incidents, security measures for Kapil Sharma in Mumbai and other locations were thoroughly reviewed, emphasising the cross-border nature of threats against him. Authorities are treating these attacks with heightened concern due to their transnational implications. Meanwhile, local police in Surrey have initiated a formal investigation into the most recent incident. They are meticulously examining CCTV footage, collecting evidence, and conducting interviews with witnesses to identify the perpetrators and prevent further attacks, ensuring the safety and security of the comedian.

Lawrence Bishnoi Gang Declared a ‘Terror Entity’ by Canadian Authorities

Kapil Sharma's Kafe

In late September, the Canadian government officially designated the Bishnoi Gang as a “terror entity.” The gang is reportedly led by gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, who is currently imprisoned in India. While Indian authorities have long worked to monitor terror groups targeting the country, Canada’s Liberal government has taken decisive action, noting that the Bishnoi Gang specifically threatens certain communities, including the Indian diaspora, within Canadian territory. This move underscores Ottawa’s growing focus on preventing transnational criminal and terrorist activities affecting local and immigrant populations.

Shots fired at Kapil Sharma’s restaurant In Canada 3rd time in four months; Bishnoi gang takes responsibility

written by jummy84

Comedian Kapil Sharma’s cafe in Surrey, Canada, was attacked for the third time on Thursday when unidentified gunmen fired multiple shots at the restaurant. Kulvir Sidhu, reportedly linked to gangster Lawrence Bishnoi’s network, claimed responsibility in a viral social media post, warning the “general public” to stay away.

Kapil Sharma

According to City News Vancouver, the Surrey Police Service is investigating reports of gunfire at Kap’s Café, located on 85 Avenue and 120 Street, around 3:45 am. Videos circulating online showed multiple bullets hitting the cafe’s walls and windows. A clip reportedly shot from inside a vehicle captured a man sticking his arm out of the window and firing at least half-a-dozen shots from a handgun. Staff were reportedly inside the café during the shooting, but no one was injured.

Kapil Sharma and his team have not yet issued a statement. Kap’s Café was previously targeted on July 9 and August 7. Shortly after Thursday’s shooting, a post attributed to Goldy Dhillon surfaced, stating, “Today’s firing at Kap’s Cafe, Surrey, was carried out by me, Kulvir Sidhu, and Goldy Dhillon. We hold no grudge against the general public. Those who owe us or cheat us will be warned. Bollywood individuals who speak against our religion should also be prepared, bullets can come from anywhere.”

The Lawrence Bishnoi gang has reportedly targeted celebrities over the years, including actor Salman Khan, with attacks on his Galaxy Apartment last year. Kap’s Café is located in a mixed-use building in Surrey’s Newton area, with retail outlets on the ground floor and residential apartments above. Police cordoned off the site while collecting evidence, even as children played nearby at a local daycare, highlighting the danger posed to families and the public.

My Time With Angela Lansbury

by jummy84 October 16, 2025
written by jummy84

It began simply enough. I was laid off from a syndicated television talk show, a blessing disguised as a reorganization. I’d started collecting unemployment and bartending under-the-table at a cocktail bar near my Hell’s Kitchen apartment when, one afternoon, my former manager called. His colleague represented an actress; would I be interested in assisting her a few days a week?

Days later, my Motorola flip phone rang, displaying an anonymous number. This was 2006, a time when no one questioned picking up the phone. I had been experimenting with mixing cosmos—the namesake of the aforementioned bar—and drinking my mistakes.

“Hello, Sarah? This is Angela Lansbury,” came the voice on the line. Then came an exuberant laugh. Angela Lansbury—a woman whose career I scarcely knew beyond my grandmother’s television set on Sunday nights—chatted with me as though this were all perfectly normal. I was an aimless, broke, 24-year-old kid standing in my tiny apartment, admittedly a bit buzzed, holding my ear to the voice of an enchanted teapot.

She planned to come to New York City to star in Deuce, a Terrance McNally play about two retired tennis stars, at the Music Box Theatre, and hoped to find someone who could help her with day-to-day odds and ends: setting up her new Manhattan apartment, accompanying her to interviews and appearances, keeping her schedule. Basic assistant stuff. This return to the city after several years away was a big deal, not only to her, but to Broadway, also—and very much to me, as it turned out.

That first phone call became an invitation to afternoon tea. Afternoon tea became a proper job offer. And with that job came a shopping buddy, a lunch date, a gossip, a confidant, a travel companion, and a nearly two-decade friendship.

***

When Angela came into my life, I was, at 24, a kid from Cranston, Rhode Island, living in a city still a bit too big for me. After graduating from college—during which I’d only narrowly escaped the 9/11 attacks, living in a dorm two blocks away from Ground Zero—I’d worked for Maury Povich’s production company and moonlit as a producer for a stand-up comedy show that paid in cheap gin and sexual harassment. Now, it felt like I was constantly rebuilding my social circle as close friends moved away for quieter lives. Both furious about everything and wildly insecure, I felt an emptiness I didn’t know how to fill, and a disillusionment with the life I was creating for myself.

The Time I Set My Amp on Fire Through the Power of Rock

by jummy84 October 16, 2025
written by jummy84

On one of the U.S. tours to support the album Alien Lanes, Guided By Voices, for whom I played bass guitar at that time, did a show at a club in Los Angeles called Spaceland. It was so new it didn’t even have a stage. The P.A. system was not top flight, either, which is where the trouble started.  

On the guest list that night was the main guy from the band Soul Asylum, who was dating the girl from Edward Scissorhands at the time, so we were a little bit excited that a real Hollywood celebrity might show up to our show. Whether the Soul Asylum person or his date showed up, I could not say. This was a time, please understand, before GBV were regularly visited backstage in Los Angeles by, for instance, the guy from Zoolander, the little girl from E.T., that one thin blonde girl from that one movie, and possibly Che Guevara (actually, Benicio Del Toro, who played him in the movie). Because nobody had heard of the band yet, except people who liked rock music, and the guy from Soul Asylum.

Despite our lack of celebrity clout, the place was packed. The tiny sound system couldn’t cope. Especially the monitors. Things got so bad that our singer, Bob, actually stopped the show at one point and sat down on the floor, and said into the mic that he wasn’t going to play another song until someone fixed the fucking monitors. His voice was almost hoarse because we had been on tour for some time, and had only a couple of shows left on this particular leg. 

The soundman at the club did something to the monitors where it was possible for Bob and Kevin to at least hear the vocals, so that Bob didn’t blow out his voice, but I’m pretty sure he was in a bad mood and in a hurry to get off the stage. He signaled that we would play “Exit Flagger,” and that that would be our last song.

“Exit Flagger” was, when I first heard it, and remains to this day, one of my very favorite Guided By Voices songs. It has a very simple structure, and adeptly performs that neat magic trick where a song can be both anthemic and melancholic at the same time. Towards the end of the song, where Bob and Toby keep singing “Exit Flagger” over and over, I used to go kind of crazy with my bass runs. 

It was always a blast to play that closing bit, especially when drunk, because everyone knows that when you are drunk your fingers move faster. But what happened next was really a little extraordinary.

To this day, I will never know whether my (quoting Toby Sprout) “smoking” bass runs or some technical glitch in the bass cabinet caused my amp to cut out at the exact moment the song ended. I turned around to look for the reason, only to find that the cabinet was on fire. I mean, literally on fire. Flames were coming out of it. Toby turned around at the same time, noticed the flames, and casually picked up a cup of beer and poured it over them. The flames went out. Toby muttered something about “wasting good beer,” and that was that.

I can’t explain the cause, I can only speculate. And because I can only speculate, I prefer the satisfying explanation that “Exit Flagger” set my bass amp on fire through the power of rock. Having no use for it, and not wishing to load its heavy carcass into the van, I left the scorched wreck on the floor of Spaceland. It stood where it had died, I like to think proudly, or nobly, but dead all the same.
Our next show was a festival somewhere in San Diego. Luckily, our management had already got in touch with one of the other bands, who agreed to lend us their bass rig for our set. The kid who showed me how to use the rig was very nice; I can’t remember his name. He played with a band none of us had ever heard of before, and some of us have not listened to ever again, except accidentally, but I would like to stress: very nice people. The band was called No Doubt, which is fitting, because that is how I feel about the supernatural provenance of my amp’s fiery death.

In the Time of D’Angelo

by jummy84 October 15, 2025
written by jummy84

In January of 2000, a snowstorm blanketed the Washington, D.C., area—up to 17 inches, unexpectedly. But I didn’t care about any of that: D’Angelo’s Voodoo was set to come out that week, and I needed the roads to be clear enough to drive my mom’s silver Dodge Dynasty up the street to buy the CD. Come hell, high water, or black ice, and with enough cash for the album and nothing else, I needed to hear “Untitled (How Does It Feel)” on blast. The radio rip on cassette had run its course.

This was the era when album releases were kinetic, when you had to physically show up at the record store, put the money down, and tear the plastic off the case. And it didn’t get more dynamic than D’Angelo, the singer, multi-instrumentalist, and producer born Michael Eugene Archer, who died earlier this week at 51.

Reluctantly, D’Angelo had become a star. He had already helped pioneer the neo-soul genre as a blend of classic R&B and hip-hop. The anticipation for his next work only heightened when “Untitled”—with its sultry and audacious video, featuring only a warm light on a naked D’Angelo—made him a sex symbol. But he wasn’t just that: Co-produced with Raphael Saadiq, “Untitled” was an extraordinary song, a seven-minute implosion of desire and transcendence, on which the divine and the erotic co-mingled until they were indistinguishable. Voodoo was rife with moments like these: A planet unto itself, with its own gravity and humidity—staggering, murky, and gorgeous.

Five years prior, D’Angelo had already altered the music landscape with his debut album Brown Sugar, which sounded like a nod to the past and a declaration of the future. Because Voodoo dominates much of the conversation around D’Angelo, it’s easy to forget how radical Brown Sugar was upon its release in 1995. Radio R&B sounded slick with drum machines tuned to perfection. The singers themselves were adorned in silk suits or white linen, singing on beaches or in mansions somewhere. Then here comes D’Angelo with his straight-back cornrows and baggy jeans, singing about the pleasures of weed through a honeyed voice, his timbre somewhat rough as if this 21-year-old kid had lived a lifetime.

All smoke and sweat, full of gospel phrasing and hip-hop undertones, Brown Sugar introduced D’Angelo as an emotive, smooth-talking vocalist, a thinking, feeling performer in the likeness of Marvin Gaye, Donny Hathaway, and Curtis Mayfield without borrowing too heavily from any of them. It was clear that he had lived and breathed those luminaries and exhaled something new. D’Angelo had cracked the door to a different kind of masculinity: laid-back yet attentive, stoic yet loving, a confessional tone conveying lust, romance, heartbreak, and devotion.

Producer Mike Dean on Making Music That Stands the Test of Time

by jummy84 October 13, 2025
written by jummy84

As I greet Mike Dean over a video call, it’s five days until the closing of the first round of voting for the 2026 Grammy Awards. His production work on the Weeknd’s Hurry Up Tomorrow is up for 10 categories. I ask him if there’s a particular category he’d like to win. “I’ve never won Song of the Year or Record of the Year…” he says, sitting in the kitchen of his California home, wearing a gray T-shirt, sipping a glass of ice water, and occasionally inhaling from his bong. “I’ve been nominated several times, and just never got the big category.” 

Dean’s not nervous, though. His life doesn’t depend on it, he says. After all, the producer, audio engineer, and multi-instrumentalist has been nominated for 19 Grammy Awards, winning seven of them, most recently in 2022 for Best Rap Song as one of the songwriters for Kanye West’s “Jail,” featuring Jay-Z. 

Over his more than 30-year career, Dean—who’s known for his synth-heavy production sound—has worked with 2Pac, Scarface, Madonna, Selena Gomez, Lana Del Rey, and countless others. He’s also released his own music, the six-album 4:20 series. 

Dean started out in music as a pianist and keyboard player, eventually getting into synthesizers in high school. 

Fresh after graduating in 1983, he started playing with Mexican-American singer Selena. “I’d be in the studio with her, and that’s whenever I started hitting record and overdubbing keyboards and producing,” he says. “That was the beginning of it, I guess, with Selena.”

Dean eventually got into hip-hop, working alongside artists such as Scarface, Geto Boys, and the Dogg Pound before forming a partnership with West as a producer, engineer, and multi-instrumentalist on almost all of his albums. Then there’s Travis Scott, with whom Dean has collaborated on all of his music since 2013.

But it’s Dean’s creative long-term team-up with the Weeknd, of course, that’s been keeping him busy lately, having just finished touring with him on his After Hours til Dawn stadium tour. Dean was not only the opener, but on some dates, he performed alongside Playboi Carti and Kaytranada.  

Now, as Grammy season rolls around, Dean has solidified his status as a legend in the field, with way too many accomplishments to mention here. In our brief chat, we only scrape the surface of all that he’s done throughout his career, how he approaches producing, and how he wants to be remembered.

How do you approach sound design? Do you approach it differently now than when you did back in the ’90s?

Not so much, really. Just still trying not to overproduce and make enough space for every instrument that’s there, instead of putting too many things and then having to fight it in the mix to make it all work. It’s much easier with computers instead of back then, [when] we were using drum machines and tape and SMPTE time code, locking things up. It was a lot harder to get into making beats. You couldn’t just go out and buy loops and figure out with YouTube how to make beats. Back in the day, you’d buy an MPC drum machine, you had this thing with 16 sounds in it that sucked, and you had to find sounds and put them in there and make songs, you know? It’s a different era.

You’ve said before that you “let the synths talk.” What does that mean to you creatively?

You’re always turning knobs trying to find something new or different. And then you’ll have those happy accidents. That’s where all the cool stuff happens. I might play a keyboard part on one keyboard and then assign it to another keyboard, and it does something crazy.

How much of your process is about technical perfection versus emotional instinct? 

It’s a natural balance, a yin-yang type of thing…half technical experience, from doing the same thing over and over and seeing when you’re going down bad paths and stuff, and half just emotional flow state, as people are starting to call it. 

Like getting in the zone?

Yeah, stream of consciousness.

You’ve worked in a lot of different genres. What do you think ties all of your work together sonically? 

My chord voicing and leading notes. I choose to put chords together, and what note goes on top, that turns into what inspires the singer or the rapper.

You’ve worked with Kanye, Travis Scott, The Weeknd, Beyoncé, so many major artists. What do you think makes a collaboration truly work?

Patience and trust. They have to trust you to let you do your thing, which everybody does now. Earlier on, I had to push more to get my ideas across. Now, I just put too many ideas and let the artists pick through it a lot of times, let them thin it out, sit with me, and arrange stuff.

Is it a back-and-forth type thing, where you’ll let them listen and then they come back with feedback? 

Beyoncé is a good example of that. It was her Renaissance album I worked on. I did all those songs. They sent me the songs to work on, and I just sent them the fuck out. I just played synths all over them, and then sent it back to her and she’d sit with her engineer and arrange what I played and where she wanted it. I never heard it again until it came out. That’s one work state that I don’t do very often, but I do enjoy it.

How do you balance contributing to an artist’s vision while keeping your own creative identity? Is that something that you even think about?

Not really. It just happens. I don’t really need a producer tag. I kind of have a sound people can feel, and it’s me. Or hopefully, they can. Sometimes you get into a flow state with the artist where that’s like the perfect situation. Working with Abel [The Weeknd] on this last album, towards the end of the album, me and him were just in the studio, just locked in, just finalizing stuff. And that’s when it gets exciting to me. It’s when you have 72 hours to turn in and you have 144 hours of work to do, and you just do it. 

You’re deadline driven. 

Yeah, I like a deadline. That’s the only way I got my 4:25 album done. I knew I wanted to drop it around 4/20 this year, and I just fucked around and fucked around and didn’t start it until 4/10, you know what I mean? I literally did it in 11 days. And then the album came out really, really good. It’s really cohesive because it’s made in such a short time period.

You’ve mentored a lot of younger producers. What’s the biggest mistake you see up-and-comers make?

Business. I think business mistakes…not standing up for themselves. It’s hard. I know some of the DSPs [digital service providers] are changing. It’s hard to get the credits all right, which is very important to up-and-coming producers. I know some of the DSPs, I won’t mention any names, but they’re working on updating their stuff. I’m kind of working with them. I hope to work with them more and get where everybody’s recognized that works on this music, behind the scenes. You used to get recognition during physical projects because it was all printed out. Now, they only put certain credits online. It’s not really fair. Anyway, that’s my preaching for that.

You’ve had a hand in some of the most influential albums in the past three decades. Do you think about your legacy at all? 

I think about it. Like I was thinking, what do I have left to prove? I can make a good record. Now I’m kind of doing what I want to do, not so driven by trying to get so many projects out. I used to try to do six albums a year or something. Now, I did two albums last year. Or one really. I did Abel’s album and then toured for four months, working on a few things I can’t talk about yet.

When you look back on your catalog, what moment feels like the biggest creative breakthrough for you?

Probably 2011, 2012, whenever I really made the move from being more of a mixer-engineer, to being a producer. I mean, I was a producer in the ’90s. All the beats we did by ourselves. We didn’t have producers. And then with Kanye, I was just mixing for the first two albums, and then the next two albums is where I kind of came into my own, adding synths and guitar solos. My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy uses that growth, you know? 

You’ve said before that you can see sound visually. Can you describe what that looks like when you’re in a session?

It’s kind of like a real-time analyzer (RTA), when you see the frequencies. Before there were RTAs, I would always just kind of see it like that. I’d stare between the speakers and see a mountain of low frequency over here and high, you know? George Augspurger, the guy who designed most of the studios in California and made the famous speakers, he taught me how to tune rooms and he always said that doing music in a room is like pouring water from a pitcher into a glass. If you pour it too fast or pour too much, it just splashes everywhere. You want to pour it in smoothly. And that’s the way I look at sound, too, like water flowing. Too much of one frequency and it shakes everything up. You’ve got to balance everything.

What’s the most misunderstood part of being a producer? 

That it’s really easy and you just hang out and smoke weed and listen to music real loud. Yeah, it’s a little more than that. 

How do you define success at this point in your career?

I don’t know…just helping more people come up in the business. To have more people that I work with be successful. That’s important to me. And just continuing to push the envelope with sounds and technology.

Do you feel like you still have anything to prove? 

I mean, nothing to prove, but I want to keep on the forefront of everything, just keep in tune with the youth and what they’re doing.

I want to be remembered like all the greats one day. In 200 years, hopefully people are still talking about Mike Dean’s music, you know? How did he make so much music in his lifetime?

Ahoi Ashtami 2025: Vrat katha and significance

On the auspicious occasion of Ashoi Ashtami, it is considered extremely important to recite the Ahoi Ashtami katha. Per Drik Panchang, long ago, a devoted woman accidentally killed baby hoglets while collecting soil for Diwali.

Soon after, her seven sons disappeared. Grieving and repentant, she prayed to Goddess Ahoi Bhagawati on Kartik Krishna Ashtami, fasting and sketching the hoglet’s face. Pleased with her devotion, the Goddess restored her sons. Since then, mothers observe Ahoi Ashtami for their children’s well-being.

According to Hindu beliefs, the Ahoi Ashtami fast is broken during twilight after sighting stars in the sky. Some women also break the fast after sighting the moon, but it might be difficult to follow as the moon rises late in the night on Ahoi Ashtami.

Listen to Celeste’s empowering new single ‘Time Will Tell’

by jummy84 October 12, 2025
written by jummy84

Celeste has given fans another taste of her upcoming album ‘Woman Of Faces’ – listen to the new single ‘Time Will Tell’ below.

The singer’s second studio record is set to be released on November 14 via Polydor Records and you can pre-order/-pre-save it here. She has already released the singles ‘On With The Show’, ‘This Is Who I Am’ and ‘Woman Of Faces’.

Now, she has shared ‘Time Will Tell’, a timeless ballad underscored by elegant, swelling strings, with Celeste’s gently raspy vocals soaring high in a throwback to classic ‘50s and ‘60s jazzy R&B. Listen here:

Celeste has described the song as “a lighter moment within a period that was confusing and murky”, adding: “I like the idea of fate, trusting in something that’s not totally within our control.”

“I’m really happy that that song exists. It gives me a great deal of warmth, peace and empowerment when I sing it live. It reminds me that time heals – not everything, but it makes things feel less raw and painful and gives you new perspectives.”

Celeste’s debut studio album, ‘Not Your Muse’, was released in 2021. In a four-star review, NME wrote: “Whether up-tempo or morose, Celeste’s remarkable voice is the real show-stealer on ‘Not Your Muse’. It has supernatural qualities, turning already poetic lyrics into gut-punch moments.”

The LP was also featured in NME‘s 20 best debut albums of the year list that year.

Elsewhere, Celeste played at Brian Eno’s ‘Together For Palestine’ charity show at OVO Arena Wembley last month, alongside the likes of Damon Albarn, Paul Weller, Cat Burns and Rachel Chinouriri.

Oldham Athletic v Barrow League Two TV channel, live stream, kick-off time

Just one point separates 15th-placed Oldham Athletic and 17th-placed Barrow ahead of their League Two clash on Saturday afternoon.

After a winless start to life back in the EFL, the hosts caught fire in September – taking 10 points from four games – but head into the weekend on the back of last weekend’s defeat to Notts County.

Barrow have hit a rich vein of form themselves in recent weeks, winning back-to-back games ahead of their goalless draw against Shrewsbury Town last Saturday.

Both will feel confident of staying clear of the relegation battle this term while a victory on Saturday could catapult them to within striking distance of the play-off places.

RadioTimes.com has rounded up everything you need to know about how to watch Oldham Athletic v Barrow on TV and online.
