The film was initially announced under the title Lahore 1947 but was rebranded as Batwara 1947 earlier this month.

The new title, Batwara 1947, is said to reflect the film’s focus on the Partition’s impact on communities, with “Batwara” symbolizing the division and struggle of the era.#aamir_khan #sunny_deol #preity_zinta #shabana_azmi #rajkumar_santoshi

Preity Zinta Reveals Simple Skincare Routine, Says ‘No Retinol’ Actor Preity Zinta, 51, has shared her skincare philosophy on social media, emphasizing a minimalist approach that excludes retinol and harsh products. The actress, known for her natural beauty, has become a topic of discussion on platforms like Twitter, where she debunked common beauty myths. In a tweet, she stated, “Sunscreen, clean products, no retinol or harsh products, and less makeup so your skin can breathe.” Her routine prioritizes simplicity, focusing on allowing the skin to function without excessive intervention. Zinta linked her glowing complexion to holistic lifestyle choices, asserting that skincare is not just about topical treatments but also about internal habits. She highlighted the importance of diet, exercise, sleep, and stress management, calling them “game changers” for skin health. According to her, unhealthy habits such as smoking, alcohol consumption, and eating inflammatory foods accelerate aging. She advised followers to drink plenty of water, stay happy, and maintain an active lifestyle. “Stick to the basics and be consistent—results will follow in skincare and in life,” she wrote. Dr. Meenu Malik, a dermatologist at Aakash Healthcare, weighed in on the debate, acknowledging retinol’s benefits for aging skin. She explained that retinol boosts collagen, reduces pigmentation, and improves texture while treating fine lines. However, she warned that sensitive skin may experience irritation or dryness from retinol. Dr. Malik emphasized the importance of choosing products suited to one’s skin type rather than following trends. “A simple routine with cleansing, moisturizing, daily sunscreen, hydration, and a healthy lifestyle can be highly effective,” she said.#preity_zinta #dr_meenu_malik #aakash_healthcare #skincare_routine #sunscreen
