Is Shraddha Kapoor getting married? Actress gives a befitting reply to questions on her rumoured wedding

It’s raining wedding in the tinsel town. From Katrina Kaif- Vicky Kaushal to Alia Bhatt-Ranbir Kapoor, these Bollywood couples reportedly are all set to take the plunge. Adding to the list is actress Shraddha Kapoor. Yes. you read it. Rumours have it that the actress is set to tie the knot with photographer Rohan Shrestha. The two have been rumoured to be dating for quite a long time now. Shraddha Kapoor, however, has always been tight-lipped about her personal life.

In a recent interview, the actress has opened up about all the speculation about her wedding with Rohan Shrestha. “I don’t think all this takes away the focus from my work because I have never really spoken much about my personal life anyway,” Shraddha Kapoor said in an interview with Hindustan Times. Her father Shakti Kapoor had earlier spoken about her rumoured wedding plans and said that she hasn’t told him anything about her marriage plans with Rohan Shrestha.

“Why only Rohan Shrestha? If she comes and tells me whoever she has chosen and wants to settle down with, I will not have any objection. Rohan Shrestha is a very nice boy. He does come home but he has come home since childhood. Shraddha Kapoor hasn’t told me that she plans to marry him. To me, they are still just childhood friends. I do not know if they are serious about each other,” Shakti Kapoor revealed to ETimes.

For the uninitiated, Rohan Shrestha is a renowned Bollywood celebrity photographer, and his father, Rakesh Shrestha was also a prominent artiste in Bollywood. Earlier in March, Shraddha Kapoor and Rohan Shrestha were spotted exiting a restaurant in the city, where she celebrated her birthday with him. The actress, on the workfront will be seen in ‘Stree 2’ with Rajkummar Rao, and ‘Chaalbaaz In London’, which is a reboot of Sridevi’s superhit film, ‘Chaalbaaz’.

Priyanka Chopra Jonas Says She’s Felt Pressure to Meet ‘Unrealistic Beauty Standards’ in the Past

• In an essay for The Telegraph Priyanka Chopra Jonas opened up about the pressure she felt to fit a certain beauty standard.

• The actress said she’s now comfortable in her own skin and is excited to work with brands that celebrate her diversity.

• Chopra Jonas gave a nod to husband, Nick Jonas, for supporting her and keeping her level-headed.

When we see Priyanka Chopra Jonas, we see a stunning woman full of confidence. But the former Miss World and Bollywood actress wasn’t always as carefree and confident as she appears today.

In a recent essay for The Telegraph the 39-year-old revealed that she's felt pressure to conform to “unrealistic beauty standards” in the past, but that she is finally comfortable in her own skin—and breaking free of certain expectations.

“In the past, I always felt pressure to look a certain way,” she wrote in the essay. “I have been raised with unrealistic beauty standards my whole life—we all have. Growing up, I believed everything had to be perfect, skinny or sample sized, and airbrushed.”

But over time, the Quantico star has found beauty in herself and found that her differences are what make her unique. “It has taken me time to come to terms with my natural skin and natural hair texture,” she wrote. “I’m now comfortable in my own skin and I can work with brands that are about individuality and expressing yourself.”

The entrepreneur is walking the talk, too. She recently launched a haircare line called Anomaly Hair Care, available exclusively at Target, which showcases women of all different colors, shapes, sizes, and ages, using products. Additionally, she announced her partnership with Victoria’s Secret earlier this year as an advisor to help implement diversity within the brand.

But this newfound confidence has come over time for the star. “I used to always have my hair blow-dried or have professional make-up before an interview, but these days I do my own. It’s been a revelation,” she wrote in the essay.

Story continues

Beyond how she sees herself, she’s also worked toward treating her body with the love and respect it deserves. She makes a point not to punish herself if she isn’t able to work out one day or if her meals aren’t perfect.

“I try to eat healthily and work out, but honestly my hours are so crazy,” she wrote. “I travel a lot to different time zones, so I prefer to give my body what it needs, when it needs it, in order to function at my best. I don’t deny my body anything, even at 1 a.m. when I have the night-time munchies.”

She credits her loving husband, Nick Jonas, for the warmth and support she says she needed to balance herself and being her most productive. “My husband, Nick, has definitely helped me get in touch with a new, calmer side of myself,” she wrote.

His relaxed attitude has been exactly what she’s needed to keep her high-energy at an even level, she wrote. “I’m very ambitious, a go-getter, a hustler. I used to have torrential energy. But Nick is the sunshine that calms my storm,” she wrote in the essay. “We balance each other that way.”

“Whenever I’m feeling torrential, I now think about patience and how comes at every situation with a sense of resolution. It’s much more peaceful, rather than feeling agitated,” she wrote.

With her refreshed outlook on life and the world's beauty standards, and the support of her loving (superstar!) husband, Chopra Jonas is spending less time worrying about what others think, and more time focusing on herself and her career.

We can’t wait to see what’s in store for Chopra Jonas in 2022!

It was a celebration of all things Bollywood, Arabic, and Pakistani cinema as top stars such as Kajol, Mohamed Ramadan, Sajal Aly, and Mahira Khan were honoured for their collective talents and contribution at the glittering Filmfare Middle East (FFME) Achievers Night at the Meydan on October 28.

The glittering awards night, which doubled up as song-dance spectacle that would rival a Bollywood musical, also kicked off the entertainment scene in this region which had seen a lull due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Singer Tulsi Kumar, dressed in a glittering gold bustier and matching skirt, got the show, hosted by actor Maniesh Paul, on the road.

“This night is symbolic that art has no boundaries or knows no nationalities. I am looking forward to see all the actors from Bollywood, Pakistan, and Arab cinema come together,” said actor Vivek Oberoi. The red carpet call, which preceded the show, also saw the stars put their best foot forward in terms of fashion.

“I loved the idea of getting ready and pouring myself in a beautiful gown. I chose a golden glittering gown to reflect the mood that we are in,” said actress Mahira Abdel Aziz.

Dressed in a nude-coloured glittering skirt and top, she said she was looking forward to celebrating the best of talents from various parts of the globe.

Actress and singer Shruti Haasan, who was honoured with the Filmfare Middle East Art Icon on Thursday, expressed her happiness at being a part of a public event after several months.

“I am super happy that we are doing the awards night at this time at a place like Dubai where everyone is vaccinated and we had to multiple checks to even get in and that gives you a peace of mind. That’s a good thing,” said Haasan. The actress, who channelled her inner goth in her by wearing a black leather gown with metallic detailing, also let us in on her red carpet regimen.

“There’s no substitute to working out every day and it’s not just for fitting into your dress … Exercise makes you feel happier and pumps endorphins … But you need to eat clean till that point too,” said Haasan.

Bollywood Actress Kubbra Sait Speaks About Celebrity Astrologer Janvi Gaur

News

oi-Filmibeat Desk

| Published: Friday, October 29, 2021, 22:14

Janvi Gaur, a professional Vedic Astrologer, and Tarot Reader, was born into a household wherein everyone had their own set of intuitions, but she was the only one who sensed these sights a little more than the rest. She began seeing glimpses of the supernatural when she was around seven years old, and she immediately learned that her destiny was something else, something more heavenly. Nothing is beyond control for her, from a thorough study of Tarot cards to a thorough understanding of the Spiritual Healing Therapy technique. She has grown as a person and overcome every obstacle that life has tossed at her.

While being in this field, she has unquestionably made several contacts with people from Bollywood, Sports, Politics, Finance, and so on. Kubbra Sait, a Bollywood actress, is one of these people who Janvi Gaur has encountered, and has helped her fundamentally navigate the complexities of life. Sait has recently revealed how deep her friendship with Janvi Gaur runs for the last thirteen years. The former claims her to be a friend, ally, and mentor to her. One of the most essential life principles that Gaur has taught Kubbra is that no matter how little one knows a person or their outlook on life, one may still grasp and comprehend that person to the core if one so desires. It is this spiritual link and compatibility factor that matters more than the number of years you know a person for.

Nawazuddin Siddiqui Asked Kubbra Sait To Go Outside As She Wept After Filming Intimate Scene For Sacred Games

Furthermore, Vedic Astrologer and Tarot Reader Janvi Gaur has also been a guide to Bollywood Actress Kubbra Sait in helping her overcome the hindrances that she had been facing in her day-to-day life. Another very significant lesson that she has given to Kubbra is that- it is of utmost importance for her to prioritize herself before helping others. Through her amazing tarot-card reading and mind-reading skills, she has helped Kubbra get a hold of her life and gave it a sense of direction. Sait admits that a huge chunk of her problems was stemming from her own mind. With the help of Janvi’s spiritual guidance, Sait learned to focus her energies and attention on these problems and sought solutions from within herself. All of these pursuits have helped Sait grow as a person and taught her how to play the ballgame of 'self-love.' This also allowed her to feel at ease in her own body and to feel rejuvenated from within. One's environment becomes simpler to understand when one has a clear mind and a healthy body. Kubbra, too, is continuously working to improve her surroundings and, more often than not, succeeds—thanks to the counsel of Vedic Astrologer and Tarot Reader Janvi Gaur that she is following. In the grand scheme of things, the execution of Janvi’s life-changing tips has helped her enhance her interpersonal relationships, set boundaries, and has also made her calmer than before.

Alaya F's Jawaani Jaaneman Co-Star Kubbra Sait Is All Praises For Her!

Conclusively, Janvi Gaur is much more than a 'tarot-card reader’ for Kubbra Sait. Instead, according to the actor, she gives her guests an insight into what they have been doing in the past, helps them identify the recurring patterns, and based on those- enables them to make rational choices in the future. In Sait’s life, Janvi reinforces these ideals now and then.

NFTs Are Taking Bollywood And Cricket By Storm. Here’s What You Need To Know About Them

© Provided by Firstpost NFTs Are Taking Bollywood And Cricket By Storm. Here’s What You Need To Know About Them

Celebrities and cricketers are making news for a shared passion these days. No, not the IPL but something called as NFTs. Starting with Amitabh Bachchan and Salman Khan from the film industry to Zaheer Khan and Dinesh Karthik among other cricketers, the buzzword all around these days seems to be about NFTs.

But what exactly are these NFTs? And should you invest in them? Let’s find out with a deep dive into the fascinating world of NFTs, arguably the most popular buzzword of 2021.

What Are NFTs?

NFTs are short for non-fungible tokens; these are virtual assets that have no physical or tangible form but can be sold as a piece of property so that only the owner has the original copy of the asset. Let’s break that down a bit.

Fungible means interchangeability – so a fifty-rupee note can be exchanged with another fifty-rupee note without anyone claiming to be the owner of that exact note being exchanged. In fact, fungibility allows fiat currencies issued by central banks as a medium of exchange to trade.

Non-fungible, on the other hand, implies that the tokens or assets in question are not interchangeable. So, any artwork or piece of asset you buy as an NFT will be unique and its original copy will always belong to the owner. Therefore, NFTs can be seen as collectible items in the form of digital assets that cannot be exchanged.

How NFT Ownership Works –

Ethereum leads others when it comes to NFTs. You can buy Ether on a crypto exchange like ZebPay using INR. Ether is the cryptocurrency on the Ethereum Network, which is the blockchain. Remember, the value of cryptocurrency is fungible too, so one Ether owned by you is the same as one Ether owned by your friend.

On the other hand, using the Ethereum blockchain once you create an NFT, which is essentially an unique cryptographic token, you own it and can auction it to the highest bidder. Buying an NFT is as simple as paying up the auction price in cryptocurrency and collecting it as your own unique work of art with your name added to the blockchain to show ownership. A person who has bought an NFT can also sell it to another interested party, although the blockchain platform will always reveal the creator’s name and subsequent owners to maintain its digital history.

NFTs can be any digital asset, from artwork to paintings to motion posters, music pieces, game play, video posts, memes or even your social media posts! Jack Dorsey of Twitter famously sold his first tweet as an NFT for a cool $2.9 million plus in March this year.

How Much Do NFTs Cost?

The world sat up and took notice of NFTs after digital artist Beeple sold his NFT called ‘Everydays’ for a whopping $69 million. Since then, people have bid and sold NFTs of all kinds that have often run into millions of dollars. Memes such as ‘Disaster Girl’ have been sold for $473,000 and ‘Nyan Cat’ was sold for $590,000. Other popular NFTs include ones such as Rick and Morty, Cryptopunks and the original source code of the World Wide Web among others.

The Indian Connect –

NFTs are set to become a buzzword in India too. Actor Amitabh Bachchan has launched his own NFTs, which are themed around his life and also feature verses from his father Harivansh Rai Bachchan’s legendary work Madhushala narrated by the actor on a platform called BeyondLife. Sunny Leone has also become the first Bollywood actress to launch her own NFT collection of unique, hand-animated art. Salman Khan has also announced his entry into NFTs on a platform called BollyCoin.

Cricketers aren’t too far behind. Dinesh Karthik has turned his last-ball six against Bangladesh during the Nidahas T20 series into an NFT. Rishabh Pant has joined Rario, a platform dedicated to licensing cricket memorabilia, to create exclusive digital collectibles of Pant’s iconic cricketing moments.

Actor Vishaal Malhotra, rapper Raftaar and Cricket Foundation, a Singapore-based blockchain platform has also announced its foray into minting cricketing NFTs with backing from players such as V.V.S. Laxman, Parthiv Patel, R.P. Singh, Piyush Chawla, Deep Dasgupta, Pragyan Ojha among others.

With so much happening around NFTs, its safe to assume that the mania around these digital assets has only just begun. Now that you know what NFTs are, keep an eye out for more announcements coming soon from these personalities and you could be one of the first ones to have an NFT in your collection featuring your favourite cricketer or Bollywood personality.

Don’t forget to start your own cryptocurrency journey and keep up with your favourite celebrities too. Start your crypto investments today.

Soni Razdan, who will play a crucial role in the upcoming show 'Call My Agent: Bollywood,' has appeared in over five projects in the last three years and made her presence felt on-screen. Despite being a fine actress and theatre artiste who in her youth acted in some of the critically acclaimed films like '36 Chowringhee Lane', 'Mandi', and 'Saaransh', to name a few, Soni is getting her due only recently with films like 'Raazi', 'No Fathers in Kashmir', 'War', 'Yours Truely', web series like 'Out Of Love', and 'The Verdict - State vs Nanavati'.

The upcoming show 'Call My Agent: Bollywood' revolves around four talent agents and how they handle the egos and profiles of actors to survive in their talent management company.

Asked if the whole system of casting agents and talent management gives actors like her deserving work, Soni told IANS: "I think getting the opportunity especially for elder actors like us, is quite a two-way process. Casting for certain projects has to arise first and then the casting agent will reach out to an actor like me. Opportunity for an actor happens when a character is written for us, a story is made in the form of film, web series, or any format. So, when we talk about opportunity, it is not just about my acting or casting but finding a script and a platform to exhibit that story too."

"Now see, not all scripts and every story can be exhibited on the big screen but still can have a wider reach. Netflix or any other OTT platforms are those spaces that enable these stories to see the light of the day. Hence actors like us are also getting work," said Soni, the mother of Bollywood star Alia Bhatt.

She further added, "Yes, my casting in all the projects that I have done in recent times has happened through casting agents but opportunity first comes from writing. Having said that, the whole process of a casting agent and talent management is good, it is very systematic and well organised."

Directed by Shaad Ali, 'Call My Agent: Bollywood', the Indian adaptation of a French show, featuring Aahana Kumra, Ayush Mehra, Rajat Kapoor along with cameos of several Bollywood celebrities - Farah Khan, Ali Fazal, Richa Chadha, Lara Dutta, Jackie Shroff, Dia Mirza, releases on October 29 on Netflix.

Did you know? Bollywood actress Nafisa Ali, who joined TMC in Goa today, contested against Mamata Banerjee in 2004 Lok Sabha polls

Bollywood actress Nafisa Ali, who is known for her performances in 'Life In A... Metro', 'Yamla Pagla Deewana', and several others movies, joined the Trinamool Congress (TMC) in Goa on Friday in presence of West Bengal Chief Minister and party supremo Mamata Banerjee. Along with Nafisa Ali, Goa-based entrepreneur Mrinalini Deshprabhu also joined the party.

"We are elated to share that Nafisa Ali and Mrinalini Deshprabhu have joined the Goa Trinamool Congress family today in the presence of our Hon'ble Chairperson @MamataOfficial. We wholeheartedly welcome both leaders!," tweeted TMC.

Also, Tennis veteran Leander Paes joined the TMC in presence of Mamata Banerjee today.

Welcoming Paes (48) during a press conference, Banerjee recalled meeting him when the Olympic bronze medal winner was a teenager. "I was the sports minister of the country when I (first) met him," she said. "I have got my younger brother and sweet and cute brother in the TMC," she added.

Paes told reporters that having retired from tennis, he wants to serve the people through the vehicle of politics to make a difference to country.

He said he had met Banerjee when he was 14 and she was the sports minister. "She was very encouraging and supportive. It enabled me as a young boy to embark on this game. "I have travelled the world for the last 30 years playing for the country. I have retired from tennis and would like to get the guidance from the powerful young lady (Banerjee)," he said.

Meanwhile, coming back to Nafisa Ali, the Bollywood actress had unsuccessfully contested the 2004 Lok Sabha elections from South Kolkata against Mamata Banerjee.

The actress, who won the Femina Miss India title in 1976 and was the second runner-up at the Miss International contest, contested the Lok Sabha election from Lucknow on the Samajwadi Party ticket in 2009. Later in the same, she rejoined the Congress party.

After she joined the TMC, Nafisa Ali took to Facebook and wrote: "After the phenomenal success of Trinamool Congress just now in Bengal, where TMC won with a handsome majority and ensured BJP’s defeat, even though PM Narendra Modi and HM Amit Shah tried everything in their power to defeat her … Mamta Banerjee is spearheading the National movement.

"Now that the Trinamool Congress has taken center stage for Goa in deciding to contest from all 40 seats… I hope the Goa sentiments will support the great tigress that she is. Strengthen Trinamool Congress and give it a voice of the people and by the people," she added.

Is Angelina Jolie Hinting At A Bollywood Debut?

Angelina Jolie is one of Hollywood’s best actors, and there’s no disputing that she could give younger actresses a race for their money.

Angelina’s Love For India

Eternal, a Marvel Cinematic Universe film, is the actress’ most recent piece. In the movie, Angie plays Thena, an extraordinary warrior who can create any weapon out of cosmic energy.

In an earlier interview, the actress spoke openly about her love for India, its culture, never feeling like an outsider throughout her visits, and, most significantly, her desire to join Bollywood. 

Angelina Jolie was asked if she ever wanted to work in Bollywood during an interview.

Related to what you're reading:

The 46-year-old actress responded, “I don’t know how good I would be at it. But we all loved that angle in Eternals. We were so excited when he (hinting at actor Kumail Nanjiani, who will be seen bringing this filmy touch to the story) was doing his scenes. It was this exciting part of the film and we thought it was so cool. We used to love when he used to practice. It is a great and exciting addition to the film.”

‘There Is This Feeling In India’

Angelina Jolie remarked of her visits to India that she loves the culture and doesn’t feel like an outsider. “I don’t know if it’s the density of the population but there is something about the place. There is this feeling of humanity which is very present in India.”

Mega

She further said that because of the nature of the country, be it on the trains or in the streets, you feel right when you are together.

It All Started In 2006

In 2006, the 46-year-old Oscar winner travelled to India to film A Mighty Heart for the first time. She took part in various touristy activities during that period, including an auto-rickshaw ride and visiting Afghan and Burmese refugees.

Mega

Jolie said she didn’t feel like an outsider throughout her stay. She stated, “I felt a part of the country. I felt the energy, the intensity and the humanity. I would like to come back again soon. You learn from so many different places. I feel that I certainly made many great friends when I was in India.”

Jolie Has Always Looked Out For India

Jolie was one of the few global stars to show ‘grief and sympathy‘ for the country’s people during the pandemic, and she also paid tribute to her A Mighty Heart (2007) co-star Irfan Khan after his death.

Despite her desire to visit the nation soon, she says she was pleased to discover a ‘desi’ connection in her upcoming Hollywood picture, Eternals, which has a Bollywood twist and includes Indian actor Harish Patel.

Mega

Jolie has spent over 20 years working to fix the world through numerous initiatives — as a goodwill ambassador and as the special envoy for the UN High Commissioner for Refugees — in addition to having an effect on screen. She also claims that she selects projects that represent her values.

After embracing motherhood in 2018 and welcoming her daughter, Mehr Dhupia Bedi, she has taken on her journey of motherhood for the second time with the arrival of her baby boy. While the actress is enjoying one of the best phases of her life, it is her husband, Angad Bedi, who is supporting her in every way possible.

Till date, many actresses have opened up about their pregnancy journey, postpartum depression and about gaining weight after pregnancy. Not just that, with time, they have also tried to break the stereotype that feeding mothers cannot breastfeed their child in the open. Another actress, who has been a veteran in this movement is Neha Dhupia, who made a bold move of smashing the shackles of prevalent stares that a woman has to endure if she wants to breastfeed her baby in the open.

In 2021, during the International Breastfeeding Week, Neha Dhupia had interacted with new moms and had normalised breastfeeding in the open. In a conversation with the Hindustan Times, Neha had shared how happy she was to have started the conversation on breastfeeding two years ago. She had told the publication:

“Just by having this conversations, I feel so much more empowered now. I know I’ll get on that journey and even try my best to be on that journey again, and be treated with the most normal manner with my real experiences. I’m glad I started that conversation two years ago because I feel that the second time around, it’ll be even better for me.”

Going further in the interview, Neha had stated the reason as to why it was important to normalise breastfeeding for new mothers. She had also shared her experience after her daughter, Mehr’s birth, and had said:

“I heard a very lovely saying around the time I gave birth to Mehr — 'Everybody looks after the baby but who looks after the mother?’. We’ve to look for nooks and crannies to breastfeed our child. I remember once I had to go inside a toilet of an aircraft because I didn’t want to get other people uncomfortable as I could sense that they were getting uncomfortable.”

A look at the on-set Bollywood accidents

The death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and injury to director Joel D Souza in a freak accident when a prop gun went off in veteran actor Alec Baldwin’s hands has left the world in shock. But did you know that accidents on the sets of Bollywood movies are commonplace?

While actors often get injured when doing action or other sequences, there have been many deaths on the sets of stuntmen and other workers, which go unnoticed at times.

 

During the sets of Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s 2002-film Devdas, two workers were accidentally sucked into the storm fan. Shooting was again thrown out of gear, when one person’s face was totally disfigured and another received such a severe blow on his head that he lost his mental equilibrium. Death struck again on the sets of the film when a light-man working on the sets of the film at Filmistan, Goregaon, fell and died instantly. Producer–director Sanjay Leela Bhansali had to bear all the expenses as the duo was not registered under the Movie Action Dummy Effects Association (MADEA).

 

Then, Shah Rukh Khan was shooting a scene for the film, when a window he was seated at fell on his hand, causing blood to ooze out. Later, when he was shooting for another scene, in which he was to play like he was in a state of drunken stupor, he ended up breaking the glass in his hands. The glass went right through the palms of his hand, and there was blood gushing all over once again.

Real-life accidents on the sets

Ravi Dewan, the action–director of films like the 1984-film Mashaal, 1990-film The Sword of Tipu Sultan and the 2013-film Jodha Akbar, says that accidents are a part of the job, something he suffered too. “These are human errors, just as one of those that happened to me at the shoot of Anil Kapoor and Vijay Shanti’s 1992-film Apradhi. A knife placed on a bazooka misfired by the man operating it, and the knife went into my stomach. I was saved after much effort. But it was an accident. You cannot stop it,” he adds matter-of-factly.

 

Filmmaker Sabbir Khan, who has worked with the likes of Sylvester Stallone in the 2009-film Kambakkht Ishq, says that it’s important to have a safety-director. “We have to take care of the safety of everyone on set,” he reasons. Filmmaker Sanjay Gupta, however, opines that filmmakers should not try to save money all the time. “Safety precautions need to be taken on many sets. It is being done on some shoots, but others really are trying to save money,” he adds.

And Dewan agrees. “Indeed. Filmmakers try to save money and they don’t listen to Indian stunt masters. They’ll listen to a foreigner and spend money not only on them but also on everything they ask for,” he says. That being said, even Dewan doesn’t think a safety director would really make much of a difference if it’s an accident.

 

“I remember I’d told a Hollywood guy Scott not to mount a camera on a raft when we were abroad shooting for the 2003-Suneil Shetty and Aishwarya Rai-film Hum Panchhi Ek Daal Ke. But he didn’t listen to me and the camera fell down and was never found again! That is where you need safety directors to come and insist on how it has to be done. No one listened to me because I was Indian,” protests Dewan.

Errors earlier

During the shoot of Indian 2 last year, three technicians died when a massive crane crashed, even as actor Kamal Haasan, Kajal Aggarwal and director Shanmugam Shankar escaped.

 

On the sets of Khakee in 2004, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan fractured her foot after she was hit by a jeep, which was to stop just away from her. She was seriously hurt after being thrown in the bushes.

In 2013, during the filming of Shootout at Wadala, Anil Kapoor fired a blank bullet at John Abraham from 4.9 feet away instead of the previously planned 15 feet, and John got hurt in his neck.

No one can forget Amitabh Bachchan’s near-fatal accident on the sets of Coolie, which happened in 1983 in Mysore.

Sunil Dutt saved Nargis when a fire broke out on the set of their film, Mother India in 1960. Dutt was seriously burnt.

 

In one of the biggest tragedies on sets, actor and filmmaker Sanjay Khan was hospitalised and had to undergo multiple surgeries for a year after a massive fire erupted on the sets of The Sword of Tipu Sultan in 1989 in Mysore, killing 62 people.

During the filming of Mani Rathnam’s 2004-film Yuva, Vivek Oberoi also got injured when his bike skidded on a bridge they were shooting on. He fractured his leg and had a death threatening blood clot, which was finally brought under control.

Mahima Chaudhary’s career as an actress was as good as over when a piece of glass crashed on her face on the sets of the 1999-film Dil Kya Kare and only producer Ajay Devgn supported her even as director Prakash Jha insisted that she continue her shoot

Bigg Boss 15: Akasa's nomination is unfair, says actress Jyoti Saxena - Times of India

Friends are the only people in our lives who constantly want to help us and defend us when we are wrongfully criticized. Jyoti Saxena, a Bollywood actress who is close friends with Akasa Singh, is furious about her friend's nomination in Bigg Boss 15 this week and has taken a stand for her on social media.
From the beginning, Bigg Boss 15 has been all about constant battles and controversies. While the contestants have been seen fighting on a regular basis, several of the housemates' relationships have also made headlines.

Three contestants have been nominated this week. Simba Nagpal, Vishal Kotian, and Akasa Singh are among the nominated contestants. Jyoti, Akasa's friend, has come out in support of the brilliant singer, stating that Akasa's nomination is unfair and that she does not deserve to be nominated and that Miesha or Ishaan, or both, should have been chosen instead. Both are only seen spending quality time with each other instead of spending time with the housemates.

Akasa has a strong bond with every housemate and is striving hard to stay safe in the house. Unlike other of her housemates, she is not involved in filthy games or politics and instead plays the game with dignity. She will not do anything that will bring her family's name into shame.

When Sharmila Tagore's Father Blasted Her For Tiger Pataudi Dropping A Catch & Said "You Shouldn't Have Kept Him Up All Night"

Whenever the world of entertainment and cricket met, it became a story to remember. Sharmila Tagore and Mansoor Ali Khan were one of the power couples who set goals for all the youngsters. The two had reached the zenith in their respective fields when they got married on December 27, 1969.

The Aradhana actress once spoke about her journey in the film industry and her love affair with Tiger Pataudi. She also revealed how her family was crazy about cricket and recalled an incident or a party where she had met MAK.

During a conversation with Diya Jaiswal, who is the President of Ladies Study Group, Sharmila Tagore revealed how, much like Anushka Sharma was trolled for Virat Kohli’s performance during a match, she was also blamed at that time. She said, “Most certainly. Those days we used to sit with the crowd. With the crowd in Bengal, I never feel threatened. I still feel Calcutta is my place and I think people like me there. But my father when Tiger dropped a catch or something, screamed saying, “You shouldn’t have kept him up all night.””

Sharmila Tagore also shared some anecdotes on her relationship with Mansoor Ali Khan Pataudi. She revealed that when he proposed to her, he immediately broke the news to his mother. The actress then also spoke about what she liked in him. “I liked his sense of humour and I felt that this man is not going to hurt me on purpose. I trusted him and he was gentle and a gentleman. His humour was very wacky but I loved it,” Sharmila said.

Sharmila Tagore converted to Islam for her nikaah with Mansoor Ali Khan. She is the recipient of two National Film Awards, a Filmfare Award, and the Filmfare Lifetime Achievement Award for her contribution to the entertainment industry.

Dubai will witness an epic star-studded Bollywood spectacle on October 28 as A-listers Kajol, Nora Fatehi, Sunny Leone, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, and former Miss World Manushi Chhillar light up the Filmfare Middle East (FFME) Achievers Night at The Meydan.

The much-anticipated event, open to the public with tickets ranging from Dh157 and above, isn’t limited to Bollywood stars alone.

The biggest names from the Arab and Pakistani world of entertainment such as ‘Versace Baby’ hitmaker Mohamed Ramadan and Pakistan’s sweethearts Mahira Khan and Maya Ali will walk the red carpet before being celebrated for their collective achievements in the field of entertainment and cinema.

After a long lull in any Bollywood-style awards ceremonies in the UAE due to the global pandemic, this spectacular night hosted by actor Maniesh Paul is symbolic of the entertainment scene picking up robustly in the UAE.

“I am so excited to walk the red carpet again after nearly two years and my team has my whole red carpet look planned. It’s going to be a surprise and I hope you like it. I attended my first Filmfare Awards ceremony in India in 2008 and I got to be on stage with two of my favourite actors — Shah Rukh Khan and Ranveer Singh. And that was great. I can’t wait for October 28 to create more memories,” said Chhillar in an exclusive interview with Gulf News ahead of the event.

Actress Sunny Leone also told Gulf News that she’s ‘super-excited’ to be a part of such an event.

“A large part of an actor’s life includes making these appearances, I won’t lie, I had missed these quite a lot,” said Leone in an interview with Gulf News ahead of her UAE trip.

Organised by Rizwan Sajan of Danube Group in Dubai, the chief architect of this fashion-meets-films night also echoed her sentiments.

“The whole idea of re-launching the Filmfare Middle East was to bring Bollywood to the Arab world. Let’s face it’s not easy to go to India and attend star-filled events … But we are getting stars on a platter here and I couldn’t be happier,” said Sajan in a recent interview.

Under his leadership, the FFME Achievers Night saw its inaugural edition being held at Bollywood Parks & Resorts with Deepika Padukone in 2018, followed by a glittering night a year later in Oman. These events were invites-only, but this time around Sajan and his team have opened their doors to the public.

“My biggest dream is to make the Filmfare Middle East Achievers Night the event of the year. Here we are not only talking about Bollywood stars … We are talking about the Arab world, Pakistani stars, and Bollywood coming together for an iconic night. Trust me it will be spectacular, and our event will reflect the spirit of Dubai,” Sajan added.

Singers including Amaal Malik, Tulsi Kumar and Kanika Kapoor will also be a part of the evening and are expected to perform.

Bollywood stars Fatehi and Leone will also hit the stage.

Tickets to the event are on sale at the Platinumlist website.
