We're thankful to our jury members and to Farah Khan for the invaluable perspective she shared on her storytelling journey. Farah Khan on content creation and storytelling Farah Khan attended the festival as a special guest and spoke about her approach to filmmaking and creating content for digital platforms. Having worked on feature films for theatrical audiences as well as short-form videos for Instagram Reels, the filmmaker discussed how she approaches the two formats. Explaining her approach to social media, Farha said she prefers to keep her content spontaneous rather than plan every detail. She also credited Gen Z with influencing her outlook towards creating and sharing videos. She stated, People assume there's a big plan behind it, but I don't overthink what I post. Gen Z has inspired me they're so nonchalant about it, no second-guessing. Be it a clip from my show, a random chat or a bit of mischief on the spot, everything is spontaneous for me. I think relatability and realness, with a bit of humor, are what audiences actually respond to on Instagram. The filmmakers comments highlighted the role of authenticity and humour in connecting with audiences on social media. The festival brought together creators and industry professionals to recognise emerging talent and encourage experimentation with digital storytelling tools.

Zee TV announces Shubh Shagun Shehnaaiyan, a story of a mother and her four daughters
For over three decades, Zee TV has brought stories to Indian households that explore relationships, family values and the emotions that shape everyday life. From narratives rooted in tradition to stories that question social conventions, the channel has continued to present characters and situations that connect with audiences across generations. Continuing its focus on family-oriented fiction, Zee TV is set to introduce Shubh Shagun Shehnaaiyan, a new show centred on a mother whose biggest dream is to find suitable life partners for her four daughters. For her, the responsibility goes beyond arranging their marriages. She also wants to see her daughters settled in life and their families flourish. Zee TV continues to maintain a presence in the Hindi primetime entertainment space, with three of its shows featuring among India's Top 5 Hindi shows. The upcoming show will join the channel's existing fiction lineup, which includes Tumm Se Tumm Tak, Jagadhatri, Dilo Ki Ram Leela, Vasudha, Ganga Mai Ki Betiyan and Tu Hi Re Dil Mein. Through stories exploring family, relationships, love, aspirations and contemporary emotions, the channel continues to cater to viewers with varied interests. At the centre of Shubh Shagun Shehnaaiyan is a close-knit middle-class family that places importance on tradition, values and self-respect. For the father, his daughters are his greatest wealth and a source of pride, rather than a burden. He is determined to raise them with the same principles that have shaped their family. As the four daughters navigate relationships, marriage and the choices that come their way, the family remains committed to its values, dignity and self-respect. Their journey also takes an interesting turn with the coming together of two individuals who have contrasting views on life and relationships. Their differing personalities set the stage for a story involving love, family bonds, unexpected developments and the everyday emotions that shape family life. With its focus on family, relationships, love and aspirations, Shubh Shagun Shehnaaiyan will introduce a new set of characters and explore the choices and experiences that influence family dynamics.

Sandeepa Dhar believes that education has played an important role in shaping her personality and outlook on life. Reflecting on her journey, she credited her parents, teachers and educational institutions for influencing the person she has become. The actress also spoke about the response to her comedy series Chumbak and admitted that she was initially surprised when directors Aatish Kapadia and JD placed their faith in her for a comic role. Talking about how education has influenced her life, Sandeepa said, I think a lot of who I am today is thanks to education. My parents always made sure I received a good education. Even when I wanted to become an actor, they told me to complete my masters degree first and then pursue whatever I wanted to do. I think thats a very typical parental response! The actress also acknowledged the role her teachers and academic institutions played in shaping her perspective and personality. Recalling her time at St. Xaviers and Jamnalal Bajaj, she spoke about the opportunity to learn from talented professors and interact with educated minds. According to Sandeepa, these experiences left a lasting impression on her and contributed to her personal growth. Meanwhile, the actress has been receiving a positive response for her performance as Kiran Kejriwal in Chumbak. Having previously taken on emotionally intense roles, Sandeepa said the appreciation for her comic performance came as a pleasant surprise. Ive done emotionally intense roles in the past, and people have given so much love to Chumbak and my character, Kiran Kejriwal. I dont know whether the surname had something to do with it, or whether it was the character itself! Its always wonderful when something youve put so much effort into works out, she said. Sandeepa revealed that she had initially wondered why she was being considered for a comedy, given that she had not explored the genre before. However, Aatish Kapadia and JD recognised her potential and trusted her to portray Kiran. The actress expressed gratitude for their confidence in her and the audiences response to the series. She also shared her happiness at seeing memes and discussions about the show circulating online. For Sandeepa, the appreciation for Chumbak has made the experience particularly rewarding. The response has also highlighted the value of stepping beyond familiar roles and exploring different aspects of her craft.

JioHotstar has announced a collaboration with The Peacock Hub for the ninth and final season of Koffee With Karan, which premieres on October 14, 2026. The partnership marks the first time NBCUniversal and JioHotstar have joined hands to support an Indian-produced show. NBCUniversal and JioHotstar, formerly known as JioCinema, launched The Peacock Hub in India in 2023. Since then, the platform has built a content library featuring international films and television shows, including Peacock Originals such as All Her Fault, PONIES, The Copenhagen Test and The Five Star Weekend. Its catalogue also includes titles from Universal Studio Group, DreamWorks Animation, Universal Pictures, Focus Features, Sky and Bravo. Until now, The Peacock Hub's presence in India has primarily focused on content distribution and acquisition. With this partnership, the platform is expanding its role by supporting a locally produced Indian original for the first time. Speaking about the collaboration, Alok Jain, Head - Hindi & English Entertainment Business (Streaming, TV & Studios), JioStar, said, This is a significant moment in how we see the future of Indian IP. Koffee With Karan has always been one of our most valuable properties, but this is the first time a global studio has chosen to partner with us around a show, not just its distribution. The Peacock Hub choosing Koffee With Karan for that first such collaboration validates something we've believed for years: that Indian IP, built with the right ambition, can compete and collaborate on a global stage. At JioStar, we aim to co-create exciting formats that dont just travel across markets, but have the potential to be built, shaped and celebrated globally. Host Karan Johar also reflected on the show's journey and the significance of the partnership. He said, I started this show wanting nothing more than coffee, honest conversation, and a little indiscretion with people I love. That instinct hasn't changed in twenty years. What has changed is who's paying attention. Having The Peacock Hub choose to collaborate with us for the first time in India is humbling, and honestly, this show has always belonged to the people who watch it as much as the people who sit on that couch. And we are so proud that it now belongs to the bigger world too. Chris Taylor, Managing Director, APAC, NBCUniversal Global TV Distribution and International Networks & DTC, said, Were delighted to partner with JioHotstar on Koffee With Karan, one of Indias most celebrated entertainment properties, for its landmark final season, said Chris Taylor, Managing Director, APAC, NBCUniversal Global TV Distribution and International Networks & DTC.* Building on The Peacock Hubs exceptional offering of U.S. and U.K. film and television content, this collaboration represents an exciting expansion into locally produced programming. With its distinctive format and unique perspective on the entertainment industry, we couldnt think of a more fitting show for this first collaboration. The partnership also reflects a broader shift in the approach of international studios towards the Indian market. Instead of focusing solely on bringing existing international content and formats to Indian audiences, The Peacock Hub's collaboration signals an interest in supporting programming developed locally for Indian viewers. Koffee With Karan was chosen for the collaboration because of its established identity and reach. The show has built a following through its celebrity conversations and distinctive format, with clips frequently circulating on social media and discussions around its episodes featuring in entertainment news cycles. Its existing cultural presence makes it a notable choice for The Peacock Hub's first partnership involving an Indian original. Hosted by Karan Johar, Season 9 of Koffee With Karan will premiere on October 14, 2026, on The Peacock Hub on JioHotstar. The final season will feature a refreshed format and a guest lineup that has already attracted attention. The season will also bring the show to a close after a 22-year run.

Karan Johar recalls how Salman Khan said yes to Kuch Kuch Hota Hai without hearing the full script
Karan Johar revisited the casting of Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, his directorial debut, during the premiere episode of Koffee With Karan Season 9. The filmmaker revealed how Salman Khan agreed to play a special appearance in the film after several leading actors had turned down the role. Recalling how the collaboration came about, Johar shared that Khan had casually told him, Youve been shopping, come narrate the film to me tomorrow. Following the conversation, Johar visited the actor at his apartment to narrate the story. Khan, who was dressed in yellow shorts at the time, agreed to be part of the film without listening to the complete narration. Johar also revealed that Khan was willing to take up the role despite being told that there would be no remuneration for his special appearance. The actor's decision came at a time when Johar was looking to finalise the casting for his debut directorial venture. During their conversation, the two also spoke about the longstanding bond between their families. Johar recalled how his father had personally travelled to Mauritius to help secure government permissions for Khan's then-ongoing shoot for Hello Brother. The anecdote offered a glimpse into the relationship shared by the two families over the years. The conversation also brought back memories of an unexpected technical issue during the climax sequence of Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. The camera operator accidentally filmed the entire sequence in slow motion, leaving the team with no option but to reshoot it. Despite having another shoot lined up, Khan reportedly postponed his next day's schedule by a day to remain on set and complete the sequence. His decision allowed the team to reshoot the scene, reflecting the support he extended to Johar during the making of the film. The premiere episode of Koffee With Karan Season 9 revisits these moments from the making of Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, offering a glimpse into how the collaboration came together and the friendship between the filmmaker and the actor.

Speaking at an event where she was honoured for being a voice for women, the actress questioned the conventional narrative that women need to be taught strength, highlighting that resilience has always been a part of womens lives. During her address, Kubbra expressed gratitude for being associated with a platform that represents women. She also pointed out that women have consistently fought for their rights and aspirations, even if their struggles have not always been documented. She said, To be associated with any platform that goes out there and represents women is nothing but an honour. And its not because were in dire times and women need help. I think women have been resilient since time immemorial. If anything, we have fought for what we wanted, since time immemorial. It may have been documented or otherwise, but somehow, weve come to believe that its been a mans world. We saw even in our last panel how men have given us the opportunity to become the women we want to be. And its just wonderful to hear that, especially in that political voice. But I think, to answer your question, Im very grateful to receive an award for being a voice for the empowerment of women. But I think Ive just had the opportunity to live life, explore it fully, be unafraid to make mistakes, and try to be a better version of a human being for myself. It just turns out that Im a woman. Through her remarks, Kubbra emphasised that womens empowerment should not be viewed solely through the lens of struggle or the need for external support. She described her own journey as an opportunity to experience life fully, learn from mistakes and work towards becoming a better person. Her concluding statement, It just turns out that Im a woman, brought attention to the distinction between living authentically as an individual and being defined primarily by gender. It also reflected her view that the freedom to make choices, explore different experiences and grow as a person is central to empowerment. Known for expressing her views on social issues, Kubbra has often challenged conventional ideas surrounding identity and gender. Her latest remarks reiterated that women have demonstrated resilience across generations and that their experiences deserve recognition, regardless of whether they have been formally recorded. Her address also encouraged a broader conversation about empowerment, suggesting that women should have the freedom to shape their own journeys without being confined to established stereotypes.
