Today, the actor headlines his projects and the filmmaker says he has found a great friend in her. "She went to my college for a month.

I had no clue," Anurag says in an interview with PTI. Anurag and Taapsee have worked in just one film, "Manmarziyaan", but the duo have found much more than a creative collaboration.

Trump wouldn't be president if not for Twitter: Sacha Baron Cohen

Sacha Baron Cohen says he does not think Donald Trump would be US president without Twitter's support. The actor-writer also called the microblogging site and its CEO, Jack Dorsey for failing to take action against "white supremacists and racists". "Trump without Twitter probably would not have become president. Which is why Jack Dorsey is in the White House having a meeting with Trump. What's fascinating about that is, he's sitting across from the president, who's actually the biggest celebrity endorser of his company. And Jack Dorsey and Twitter cannot implement any restrictions against white supremacists and racists... "They get rid of the racists, they're going to have less Twitter subscribers. So obviously he can claim, 'Oh, I believe in freedom of speech, and obviously I won't be biased against anyone,' when really, in society, we want to be biased against those who want to kill people like you or like me, just because of the colour of our skin or our ethnicity or because we're .
