Bigg Boss 20 Week 4 has had its share of fights, nominations, task drama and shifting equations, but the overall energy inside the house has remained relatively subdued. With Friday set for the Weekend Ka Vaar shoot, there are several issues from the week that deserve to be put under the spotlight. From Love Gills increasingly complicated group dynamics to Gullus captaincy and Qazi Touqeers growing disconnect with his own allies, here are four things Salman Khan should address. 1. Love Gill needs to STOP playing peacemaker at her own expense Love Gills biggest problem right now may not be her game, but her tendency to constantly keep the peace within her group. Across the past few weeks, Love has repeatedly found herself apologising to her friends and group members after confrontations. One of the earliest examples came after Yung DSA lost his life, with the group suspecting that Gullu had played a role in the decision. At the same time, Gullus equation with Love, including their flirting, appeared to create discomfort among some members of the group. Aamrapali Dubey subsequently confronted Love over the situation. While Love initially stood her ground, she eventually apologised to Aamrapali. View this post on Instagram A post shared by JioHotstar Reality (@jiohotstarreality) A similar pattern emerged when Aasif Khan expressed his frustration over Love seemingly prioritising Scout OP and Yung DSA and relying more heavily on their opinions. The latest incident involving Yung was even more telling. After Love danced on Gullus bed, Yung made a comment that she found inappropriate. Love confronted him, but the situation escalated, with Aamrapali also getting involved. Love eventually apologised to Yung. The most interesting part is that Love herself has admitted to Aasif that she does not feel she can completely be herself within the group. That is precisely where Salman could ask her to take a step back and assess her game. Being diplomatic is one thing, but constantly trying to keep everyone happy can prevent a contestant from establishing an individual identity. Love has shown that she can stand her ground. The question is whether she will continue doing so when it comes at the cost of keeping her group happy. 2. Gullu needs to move beyond the safety net of captaincy Kushal Tanwar, aka Gullu, entered the Bigg Boss house with expectations attached to him. As a winner of MTV Roadies XX: Double Cross, he already had a reality-show history built around tasks, strategy and confrontations. Yet, three weeks into Bigg Boss 20, his contribution to the central drama has often felt quieter than expected. His biggest advantage has been his position as captain. Gullu has managed to keep himself safe for two consecutive weeks, but that also means his game has not been tested in the same way as several other contestants. Salman had already questioned Gullu during the previous Weekend Ka Vaar after he failed to take a strong stand while serving as sanchalak during the diss battle. Bigg Boss also took a dig at him over his relatively passive approach. This week, Gullu became captaincy contender again, but even his leadership came under scrutiny. During the housemates' rose-based assessment of his captaincy, several contestants criticised him for being careless, people-pleasing and insufficiently strict. The messy-house footage shown by Bigg Boss further added to the criticism. View this post on Instagram A post shared by JioHotstar Reality (@jiohotstarreality) Salman does not necessarily need to question Gullu simply because he has not been involved in every fight. Instead, the bigger question is whether he is using his position to actively shape the game. If Gullu wants to establish himself beyond the captain's badge, this could be the week to ask him to take more decisions, drive tasks and take clear positions instead of relying on safety. 3. The entire house needs a wake-up call If there is one larger issue Salman should address, it is the overall energy of the house. Week 4 has had individual incidents, but very few moments have managed to sustain momentum. The ration and captaincy task created some conflict, the Love-Yung argument added another layer to the group dynamics and Qazi's remarks sparked a confrontation with Kanika. Beyond these moments, however, the house has often felt quieter than it should at this stage of the season. That is where a larger Weekend Ka Vaar intervention could help. Kanika Mann, in particular, is an interesting case. She has had strong opinions on several issues and has not shied away from calling out behaviour she disagrees with. Her objection to Qazi's use of the word lollipop during their interaction was one example. However, she has also frequently chosen to discuss her frustrations with the cameras rather than directly with the person involved. View this post on Instagram A post shared by JioHotstar Reality (@jiohotstarreality) The latest confrontation with Qazi showed that Kanika is capable of taking the issue directly to the person concerned. That side of her game could potentially be more impactful than repeatedly discussing the same concerns privately. The same applies to the rest of the house. At this point, the contestants need to realise that simply reacting to one another is not enough. They need to actively play the game. 4. Qazi Touqeer needs to realise what is happening within his own group Qazi Touqeer has been involved in several conversations and confrontations this week, but there is another aspect of his game that could make for an interesting Weekend Ka Vaar discussion. While Qazi appears to be comfortable with his group, some of the people around him have also been critical of him behind his back. His recent clash with Kanika over the lollipop remark is already one issue Salman could revisit. Kanika had objected to the word earlier, and the matter eventually became a direct confrontation. But beyond that incident, Qazi could benefit from being made aware of how some of his own group members perceive him when he is not around. The purpose would not simply be to create another fight. Instead, it could force Qazi to reassess his equations and understand whether the people he considers allies view the relationship in the same way. That could also test how Qazi handles uncomfortable information when it comes directly from Salman rather than through another contestant. This Weekend Ka Vaar needs to shake things up Week 4 has not been completely devoid of drama. There have been nominations, ration cuts, captaincy politics, personal clashes and questions around individual gameplay. However, the bigger issue is that very few contestants have managed to consistently drive the narrative. That makes this Weekend Ka Vaar particularly important. Love needs to examine whether keeping her group happy is coming at the cost of her individual game. Gullu needs to prove that his captaincy is more than a route to safety. Kanika needs to take her opinions directly to the people involved, while Qazi may need to look more closely at the equations within his own group. If Salman addresses these issues, the focus can move beyond simply revisiting isolated fights and towards the larger question of how each contestant intends to play Bigg Boss 20 from here.

Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah: Taaraks food plan takes an unexpected turn as Anjali bhabhi appears
Tonights episode of Asit Kumarr Modis Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah will see Taarak Mehta, Jethalal and Ratan together in the Gokuldham compound. During their conversation, Taarak introduces Ratan to a popular food shop located near Jethalals Gada Electronics. He describes the shops samosas, kachoris and bhel, which leaves Ratan keen to try the food. As the conversation continues, Jethalal suddenly screams, Anjali Bhabhi! Taarak and Ratan are taken by surprise, only to discover that Jethalal was joking. Taarak then announces that they will visit the food shop the following day and enjoy the snacks together. However, things take an unexpected turn when Anjali actually steps out of her house and ends up standing behind Taarak. Ratan and Jethalal immediately notice her presence. Jethalal tries to signal Taarak and make him understand that Anjali is really standing there. Taarak, however, assumes that Jethalal is once again trying to fool him. He ignores Jethalals signals and even teases him for getting scared. The situation leaves Jethalal struggling to make Taarak understand what is happening. Will Taarak realise that Jethalal is telling the truth this time? What will happen when he finally turns around and sees Anjali standing behind him? More importantly, will Taarak, Jethalal and Ratans food outing go ahead as planned? The upcoming episode promises another comic situation involving the Gokuldham residents. Viewers can watch Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah tonight at 8:30 PM on Sony SAB. Recap of the previous episode In the previous episode, Tappu Senas efforts helped solve the mystery surrounding the stolen jewellery, ultimately proving Popatlal innocent. After spending unexpected time in jail, Popatlal was released, bringing relief to the members of Gokuldham Society. The fate of the cat involved in the jewellery theft also became a topic of discussion. Inspector Chalu Pandey informed the society members that the cat would not be punished and would instead be sent to a training centre. Following Popatlals release and the recovery of the jewellery, the Gokuldham members collected their belongings from Inspector Chalu Pandey and returned to the society. They celebrated Popatlals return and were relieved to see the matter resolved. However, another mystery soon emerges in Gokuldham Society. The next day, someone rings the doorbell at Bhides house. When the door is opened, nobody is found outside. Bhide then notices something unusual near the doorbell a sketch of himself. Who left the sketch outside Bhides house, and what could it mean?

Tahir Raj Bhasin is currently enjoying the response his latest Netflix show Shaque: Trust No One is generating. The actor will next be seen in designer-turned-filmmaker Vikram Phadnis Hindi film debut Pal Bhar Ke Liye, which also stars Saiyami Kher and Viineet Kumar Siingh. Before this film, Phadnis had made two Marathi movies in the form of Hrudayantar (2017) and Smile Please (2019). Tahir told Bollywood Hungama exclusively that the character he has played in Pal Bhar Ke Liye is something he hasnt played before. You can expect a very heartfelt, emotional and personal story that Vikram is telling in his Hindi directorial debut, he said. As far as my character is concerned, I havent played anything like this before. Its a softer shade that I have never explored before. Its a more emotional character and he brings in a ray of sunshine and hope in the film. And that is what I appreciate about it. In August this year, Phadnis had travelled to Melbourne for the world premiere of Pal Bhar Ke Liye at the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne (IFFM), where the film received acclaim. Before the screening, he had told Bollywood Hungama that the movie is inspired from the last four years of his late mother. Sharing more about the film, Tahir said, Its a very personal story. He has already made this once in Marathi. So, he knew it frame to frame. Phanis had once said that his 2019 Marathi movie Smile Please was inspired by her mothers last few years. Hence, it seems that Pal Bhar Ke Liye is a remake of that film. Tahir said that while working in the film, he never felt like Phadnis was making his Hindi directorial debut. He comes from the world of designing. He has made two Marathi films. He comes with a visual and designing clarity on him wanting only this much footage and every scene should only be done this much. This helps the actor a lot. Sometimes, when the director isnt that skilled, he takes a lot of takes. But Vikram had a lot of clarity. He knew exactly what he wanted from his actor, he said. After Pal Bhar Ke Liyes premiere at Melbourne, Tahir is looking forward to its release in India. I am very excited about how the audience is going to respond over here, he said.

The way it has shaped up the scripting and the way Abhishek has made the film, I think it has come out fabulous. That's when we decided that it should be the conclusion.

Some runway moments are about the clothes. Others are about the story stitched into them. Alia Bhatt's turn at the Mijwan charity fashion show managed both. The show celebrated 15 years of collaboration between couturier Manish Malhotra and the Mijwan Welfare Society, spearheaded by Shabana Azmi, and brought cinematic glamour together with grassroots artistry to empower female artisans from rural India. From the first pencil strokes on Malhotra's sketchpad to the glare of the runway lights, Alia's outfit was an ode to timeless romance. She walked the ramp in a custom ivory georgette saree, paired with a flowing organza veil that trailed behind her with every step. Weeks of behind-the-scenes work went into the ensemble, which showcased fine Chikankari needlework, tonal thread accents and a soft luminescence. Styled by the sartorial duo Rhea Kapoor and Sanya Kapoor, the look leaned into regal minimalism. A pleated micro-corset blouse anchored the drapes, leaving the veil's scalloped borders and delicate lace motifs to take centre stage. Manish Malhotra's official Instagram page shared behind-the-scenes photos, captioned: From the sketch to the runway, Alia Bhatt (@aliaabhatt) in our ivory georgette saree and flowing organza veil. View this post on Instagram A post shared by MANISH MALHOTRA (@manishmalhotraworld) The opulence peaked with pieces from Manish Malhotra Jewellery. As the caption stated, Alia wore a heirloom choker set with uncut diamonds and strung with over 310 carats of cascading pearls. She completed the look with an understated maang tikka, delicate earrings and ornate haathphools that shimmered under the spotlights. The atmosphere was shaped by the evocative soundscapes of electronic duo Lost Stories, which turned the charity runway into what felt like a living gallery of craft and purpose. The show was supported by Manta Goyal and presented by L'Oral. With its bridal-inspired spirit, Alia's walk was more than a fashion statement. It served as a tribute to artisanal legacy, empowerment and fifteen years of purposeful couture.

Years after Tera Yaar Hoon Main became widely associated with friendship and continued to receive millions of views and streams, Arijit Singh, Rochak Kohli, Kumaar and Luv Ranjan have reunited for Purane Din, a song from Pehla Pyaar Doosri Baar. While Tera Yaar Hoon Main focused on the lasting bond between friends, Purane Din looks at the memories and emotions that often come with those friendships. The song touches upon young love, classroom glances, unspoken feelings and the excitement of seeing someone you have a crush on every day. Composed by Rochak Kohli, sung by Arijit Singh and written by Kumaar, Purane Din explores the innocence of first love through a soft and soulful composition. The track also adds an emotional dimension to the stories of the films six protagonists Tushar Chhibber, Sargun Kaur Luthra, Kunal Vaid, Sakshi Vaidya, Sparsh Walia and Alisha Chopra as they experience friendship, emerging feelings and the early stages of their respective love stories. View this post on Instagram A post shared by T-Series (@tseries.official) Talking about the reunion, composer Rochak Kohli says, The love Tera Yaar Hoon Main continues to receive even today is something Im extremely grateful for. With Purane Din, Im happy to reunite with Luv Ranjan, Arijit and Kumaar and explore another emotion that is just as universal - the innocence of first love. Weve tried to create a song that feels familiar yet new, and I hope Purane Din can recreate that same magic and resonate with listeners for years to come. Lyricist Kumaar adds, Both Tera Yaar Hoon Main and Purane Din come from a very similar emotional space - friendship and the memories we create while growing up. With Purane Din, I wanted to capture that innocence of college life, when friendships, first crushes and the smallest moments could feel so significant. The idea was to write about a time that we may have left behind, but whose emotions still stay with us. I hope the lyrics bring back that feeling of being young, having your friends around you and experiencing those first emotions together. The song is now available on T-Series Music. Presented by Luv Films, Pehla Pyaar Doosri Baar is directed by Anuj Saini and produced by Luv Ranjan and Ankur Garg.

Taapsee Pannus Gandhari continues to achieve new milestones on Netflix, emerging as the biggest Indian film performance on the platform in 2026. The action thriller has not only found a strong global audience but has also received appreciation for Taapsees physically demanding performance and action sequences. Reflecting on the films success, Taapsee spoke about how its strong opening was followed by an even bigger jump in viewership, which she believes came from the content connecting with audiences. Taapsee said, When the film opened, we knew that if people started watching it, they would continue to watch it. They wouldnt leave it midway. The film had one of the top three openings of the year, which can only mean that the story worked for people. You may initially want to watch a film for its maker or its actors but the subsequent jump is purely because of the content. I think thats where this film broke all records and proved everyone wrong. There were people who rejected it. But I feel that if the same film had a male lead and had been written by a male writer, no one would have questioned its logic. No one would have asked, how can it be like this or that? Perhaps it would have received a bigger budget and we could have made it fancier. Its not as if people dont enjoy illogical films with male leads. She added, So, why is it that when it comes to a female protagonist, we have no room for error? To prove its success and silence the naysayers, Gandhari had to become one of the biggest Netflix originals of all time. Even if it had made it to the top 10, it would have been a success. Now, Gandhari is on its way to becoming perhaps the number one film ever. With Gandhari continuing to hold strong on the global charts, the film has become an important milestone in Taapsees career. For the actor, the response also adds to her growing list of female-led films that have connected strongly with audiences.

Yami Gautam on National Film Award win; says, I think it's a very true validation for any artist
Yami Gautam recently received the National Film Award for Best Actress for her performance as NIA officer Zooni Haksar in Article 370. Speaking about the honour at the trailer launch of Nayyi Navelli, the actress opened up about how the recognition has affected her approach towards her work and said that it has brought a greater sense of responsibility. Yami said, I do feel that sense of responsibility even more. She explained that she has always tried to choose roles that excite her as an actor while also connecting with the audience. For her, receiving the National Film Award was a major recognition of her work. I think National Film Award is a really, really big honour and I think it's a very true validation for any artist, she said. The actress also acknowledged that the award has changed things for her professionally. I will be lying if I say nothing changed after receiving the award, Yami said. She added that the recognition has made her more aware of the responsibility that comes with being an actor. Despite the honour, she remains focused on continuing to give her best and earning the audiences appreciation through her work. Reflecting on her journey from a small town to receiving one of the countrys major film honours, Yami said, There is so much for me to learn. She stressed that the award has not changed her focus on learning and growing as an artist. Yami was also asked if the National Award had made her think about aspiring for an Oscar. Keeping her ambitions private, she said, Sapne sirf aapko aur aapke man ko pata hone chahiye kya hain, baaki main zyada bolti nahi hoon. Main apne kaam mein vishwas karti hoon, she said. The actress further said that she believes good work should speak for itself rather than an artist repeatedly talking about achievements. On remaining grounded, she added, Pair bilkul zameen par hi hain aur zameen se jitney jude rahenge utna acha rahega. Yami also shared a lesson she has learnt from senior artists while success can come with time, maintaining humility is something that remains within an individuals control. At the 72nd National Film Awards, Yami won Best Actress for Article 370. The film also received the awards for Best Feature Film and Best Music Direction (Songs). Her husband Aditya Dhar accepted the Best Feature Film honour, while he was also seen getting emotional as Yami received her award from President Droupadi Murmu.
