Janhvi Kapoor has opened up about the support she received from Shikhar Pahariya following the death of her mother, legendary actor Sridevi, in 2018. In the upcoming episode of Koffee with Karan 9, the actress reportedly recalled how Shikhar put his studies on hold to be available for her during a difficult period in her life. The episode, featuring Janhvi alongside her Bawaal and Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari co-star Varun Dhawan, is expected to offer a more personal glimpse into her life beyond the screen. According to a report by The Times of India, Janhvi revealed that Shikhar was studying in London when Sridevi passed away. He reportedly took half a semester off and travelled to Mumbai, quietly ensuring that he was nearby in case she needed him. I think he was studying in London and he took like half a semester off. He came to Mumbai, and he used to stay in town with his dad then, and I only found out much later that he moved to his friend's house in Juhu for a month. Not that I was seeing him every day, but later on I just found out that he was like, No, in case she needs me, I just want to be around', she said. The revelation highlights the understated support Shikhar offered during a period of grief for Janhvi and her family. While the two have largely kept their relationship private, their public appearances together over the years have fuelled interest in their bond. Their association dates back to their school days, before Janhvi made her acting debut with Dhadak in 2018. Reports of their reconciliation surfaced several years later, and Shikhar has since been seen accompanying her at family occasions and public events. Janhvi also spoke about the moment she learnt of her mothers death and the way her younger sister, Khushi Kapoor, responded to her grief. Recalling the deeply personal memory, she shared, When I got the call, I was in my room, and I could hear wailing from Khushi's room, and I think I barged into her room howling and crying. But what I do remember is, the minute she looked at me, she stopped crying. She just stopped crying. She sat next to me and started comforting me. And I have never seen her cry about it since. Her recollection offers a glimpse into how the sisters leaned on each other following the loss of their mother. Janhvis account also underlines the importance of the people who stood by her during one of the most challenging chapters of her life. The upcoming Koffee with Karan 9 episode will premiere on JioHotstar on Wednesday, October 28 at 7 PM.

Former Bigg Boss 20 contestant Isha Rikhi has come out in support of Love Gill amid the ongoing controversy surrounding her equation with fellow housemate ScoutOP, also known as gaming influencer Tanmay Singh. Questioning why Love is facing much of the criticism, Isha has urged viewers to hear her side of the story instead of making assumptions about her character. Taking to social media, Isha said she felt bad watching the criticism directed at Love, adding that having been part of the reality show herself, she knows both Love and Scout. She argued that when two people are involved in a situation, the responsibility should not be placed entirely on one person. @lovegillkalakaar Deserves empathy, not character assassination. Main Bigg Boss k ghar ka hissa reh chuki hoon aur Love aur Scout, dono ko jaanti hoon. Isliye Love ke saath jo ho raha hai, woh dekhkar mujhe genuinely bahut bura lag raha hai, she wrote. Isha also pointed out that Scout had spoken about being confused about his feelings, questioning why Love was being held solely responsible for their equation. Main yeh nahi keh rahi ki Love poori tarah sahi hai ya Scout galat hai. Main bas itna kehna chahti hoon ki kisi ek insaan ko poori tarah blame karna sahi nahi hai. Kisi ladki ke character par sawaal uthana aur uski reputation ko hurt karna bahut aasaan hota hai, lekin humein yeh bhi samajhna chahiye ki uski side ki story kya hai, she added. Concluding her statement, Isha stressed that Love's feelings and perspective also deserved consideration. Love bhi ek insaan hai, uski bhi feelings hain. Usko bhi samajhne ki zaroorat hai, judge karne ki nahi, she said. What is the Love Gill and ScoutOP controversy on Bigg Boss 20? Love and Scout's close bond inside the Bigg Boss 20 house has drawn attention from viewers. The two have repeatedly described their relationship as a platonic brother-sister bond. However, their physical closeness and interactions, including moments when Scout massaged Love's feet, hands and neck or carried her, became a topic of discussion among viewers. The controversy gained further attention after Scout reportedly spoke to fellow contestant Yung DSA about feeling possessive and being confused about his feelings. The discussion also brought scrutiny to the fact that Scout has a girlfriend outside the house, Kaashvi Hiranandani.

Mihir Ahuja on connecting with audiences through Dilwali Diwali Mihir said every role gives him an opportunity to learn more about the character he is playing as well as his own approach to acting. He hopes the films familiar situations and emotions will resonate with viewers.

What makes Dilwali Diwali exciting is the chance to connect with audiences through emotions and situations that feel familiar, yet still have their own surprises, he said. The actor also expressed hope that viewers would respond to his performance in the film. I hope people enjoy seeing me in this different space and connect with the character in their own way, he added.
