Police question B4U officials after Shah arrest
The arrest of film financier Bharat Shah in Mumbai on Monday had its fallout later in the evening at the offices of B4U Entertainment where he is a co-promoter. A Mumbai police team questioned company officials seeking details of the financial transactions between Shah and B4U.
B4U MD Ravi Gupta said that reports of raids on company offices were an exaggeration. According to him, an investigating team led by Arun Borade sought explanations as to what was Shah’s role in the company and how the finances were organised.
Gupta said Shah’s role was strictly as financier of B4U Multimedia International, the Indian arm of B4U which handled advertising and promotions.
Bharat Shah was arrested under the Maharashtra Organised Crime Control Act for his alleged links with Pakistan-based underworld don Chhota Shakeel.
Following these developments, the diamond market in Mumbai has announced a shutdown in protest on Wednesday. The film industry has also announced a shutdown on Tuesday.

TLC launches ‘World On My Plate’ with Shipra Khanna
New travel-food series premieres 29 March at 7:00 PM.
MUMBAI: Shipra Khanna just packed her bags and her flavours because when a celebrated chef takes you on a global plate tour, even the couch starts feeling like first-class. Warner Bros. Discovery India has announced the launch of World On My Plate with Shipra Khanna, a new travel and food series set to premiere on TLC on 29 March at 7:00 PM. Hosted and curated by the popular chef and television personality, the show blends food, travel and culture through an intimate and immersive lens.
Across three visually rich episodes, Shipra journeys to global destinations to explore not just what people eat, but why they eat it, uncovering the stories, traditions and human connections behind every dish. The series opens in London, weaving its iconic landmarks with diverse culinary scenes, before moving to Spain’s vineyards, olive orchards and coastal kitchens.
Warner Bros. Discovery head of advertising revenues for South Asia Tanaz Mehta said: “At TLC, our focus has always been on bringing authentic stories that reflect how people live and connect. World On My Plate builds on this by using food as a lens to explore shared traditions across geographies. We’re excited to collaborate with Chef Shipra Khanna, whose perspective brings both depth and relatability to these narratives.”
Shipra Khanna added, “Food has always been my way of connecting with people and understanding cultures. With World On My Plate, I’ve had the opportunity to step into new worlds, learn from incredible individuals, and share stories that go far beyond the plate. This show is very special to me.”
The series promises strong visual storytelling, meaningful interactions and a fresh perspective on global cuisine celebrating flavours alongside the emotions and traditions that shape them.
In a world where travel shows often feel like distant postcards, Shipra Khanna is serving up something far more personal: a passport to cultures through their kitchens, proving that the best way to understand a place is still through the plate. Tune in to World On My Plate with Shipra Khanna starting 29 March at 7:00 PM on TLC.
