Harshvardhan Rane has expressed his admiration for his Silaa co-star Sadia Khateeb, describing her as one of the most deserving female leads in Hindi cinema and emphasising that she is not just a heroine. His appreciation comes shortly after Khateeb was announced as a writer on Kriti Sanons upcoming film, backed by Dinesh Vijans Maddock Films. Rane shared his thoughts in the comments section of the first-look poster of Silaa, which features the actor in a rugged, battle-scarred appearance. While the poster offered a glimpse into the films action-romance setting, Rane used the occasion to acknowledge Khateebs abilities and potential rather than focusing solely on his own appearance or the project. This is not the first time the actor has spoken positively about his co-stars. During a schedule of Silaa, Rane appreciated Khateebs performance and dedication to the film. He also acknowledged fellow co-star Ipsitaa, referring to her as the star of the film, and recognised Karan Veer Mehras contribution. In addition, he praised the technical crew, highlighting the work of those involved behind the scenes. Rane has also encouraged a supportive approach towards fellow actors outside his immediate circle. When social media users began comparing his performance in Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat with Ahaan Pandays work in Saiyaara, he urged audiences not to pit the two actors against each other, describing Panday as sincere and talented. The actor has similarly expressed his appreciation for Sonam Bajwa, his co-star in Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat. In an interview with Filmfare, Rane described working with her as one of his top two experiences with a co-star and said she had a mountain of untapped potential. Calling her an earnest artist and a refined human being, he expressed confidence that she could be recognised not only as an A-grade commercial heroine but also as a top-notch actor capable of holding a scene through silence and the power of her eyes. He added that the industry had not even scratched the surface of her potential. With Rane and Khateeb set to share screen space in Silaa, his latest words have brought attention to their professional camaraderie ahead of the films release. His appreciation for his co-stars, fellow performers and crew members reflects his willingness to acknowledge the contributions of others in an industry where conversations often centre on individual actors.

The much-awaited Jailer 2 has lived up to expectations and is enjoying a phenomenal run at the box office. The film has been loved for its mass-appealing moments, Nelson's expert direction, Rajinikanth's towering presence and much more. The performances by the supporting cast and actors making cameo appearances have also received appreciation. One of them is Apeksha Porwal. She appears in the second half, and in the climax, she, along with her gang of girls and their suave leader, Hrithik Roshan, helps Rajinikanth's character eliminate the baddies. In an exclusive interview with Bollywood Hungama, Apeksha spoke about her Jailer 2 experience, working with some of the biggest names in Indian cinema and a lot more. How has your life changed after Jailer 2's release? How are things going for you? More than anything, it's the love that is coming in from the masses that has made me so full of gratitude. I knew it was a big film. Yet, the appreciation I have received in hordes has gone above and beyond my expectations. Did you get a chance to watch it in cinemas? (Smiles) Yes, of course. I was not going to miss this one! I watched it in Hindi, but it was like a party as it was a single-screen theatre. Everybody was screaming and hooting. I actually watched it twice. Once, I went alone quietly on the first day to gauge the audience's reaction. Then, I went again with my friends, and it was a crazy experience. How did you bag the film? I have been practising martial arts for the past couple of years. So, I do a bunch of things like katana (sword training), nunchucks, kickboxing, etc. Somebody from the team had come across my katana videos. They knew of this girl who was an actor and also practised martial arts. That's how they approached me for the role. At first, I wasn't sure if it was real or not! But then I had a word with them, and it turned out to be genuine. I went to Chennai and had a meeting with Nelson sir. After the meeting, I got a call confirming that I had bagged the role. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Apeksha Porwal (@apeksha_porwal) You have posted a picture with Rajinikanth. What did you both talk about? He's the sweetest and incredibly humble. You've grown up hearing the name Rajinikanth, and he's like this mythical legend. Being the superstar that he is, I wasn't sure if I could approach him and speak to him. On my first day on the set, I shot for the climax action scene. Ramya Krishnan, S J Suryah, Vidya Balan and others were also present along with Rajinikanth sir. Hence, I kept to myself and focused on the action that I had to perform. But Rajini sir's presence was very comforting. Every time he would walk past, he would smile and say, 'Good morning'. And not just to me. He was respectful towards the entire crew. It speaks volumes about the stardom and legacy he has built over the years. You also share screen space with Hrithik Roshan It was great to work with him. He's extremely focused and dedicated when he's doing a shot. He knows exactly what he's doing. He's also a director's actor. He worked very collaboratively with Nelson. We spoke very briefly between shots. He's kind and a good person. I spoke to Ramya Krishnan ma'am at length as I am a huge fan of Baahubali. We spoke for at least 15-20 minutes, and she was very kind. Mithun sir was also great. There's a shot where I have to knock the gun out of his hand. That was my first shot, and I was like, 'Oh my God! This is how I am starting' (laughs)! Nelson's films have a lot of humour. Is he funny in real life too? He's very funny and witty. I mean, imagine the kind of setup he's working on. The film is mounted on a huge budget of hundreds of crores. Yet, he was the coolest and calmest person on the set. To manage a set like that and still be so calm and focused on his vision all the time is commendable. At the same time, he's super-fun and chill between takes. I would sit with him near the monitor. We would laugh and have a very good time. He also has a dark, witty sense of humour. Many people felt that you and the rest of the girls should have had more screen time. Also, Jailer 2 ends with the promise of a third part. So, is Jailer 3 happening? I guess we'll get to that. I can't comment on it right now (laughs). As for the screen time, it's nice to leave the audience wanting more, na? What's next? Are you open to doing more Pan-India films? I am already working on two films, both in lead roles and in the Hindi film industry. The door's open now, and let's see what offers pour in. I'm just going with the flow.

With more opportunities emerging for female-led films, conversations around gender parity, pay disparity and the commercial potential of women-centric stories continue to be a part of the entertainment industry. Actress Kriti Sanon recently shared her views on the changing landscape, highlighting the role of audiences in encouraging filmmakers to invest in stories led by women. Kriti, who is reportedly set to headline a large-scale horror film backed by Maddock Films, also spoke about the difference in remuneration between male and female actors. While she acknowledged the growing number of substantial roles being written for women, she noted that pay parity remains an area that needs attention. Talking about the rise of female-driven projects, the actress said, With OTT and so many other platforms coming in, and also a lot of writers writing meaty parts for women, which is amazing, because now it's not just about male-driven films. There are many female-driven films that are also happening. Women are also opting for meaty parts. But of course, there is a lot of difference in the pay and the fee, which still needs to change. But it is all a mathematical calculation of what the return is going to be in theatres, what the platforms pay for certain films and certain actors. She added, But I would actually like to say, I'm doing a film that is on my shoulders, a solo lead next. And I actually want the audiences to make it make as much money as it would if it had a male actor. Make it a blockbuster, and things will change. I feel it's not just about the industry. It's actually a calculated thing where how much you invest and how much you're getting is dependent on that. And actually, I feel the audiences need to make that difference also, you know, by watching a film regardless of the gender. So when that happens, and a film that's on a female's shoulders opens to big numbers, things will change. Through her remarks, Kriti emphasised that the success of female-led films at the box office could influence the industry's approach to casting, budgets and remuneration. She pointed out that the financial returns associated with a film play a role in determining how much producers invest in a project and how actors are paid. The actress also called on audiences to support films based on their content rather than the gender of the lead actor. According to her, when a woman-led film achieves box-office numbers comparable to those of a male-led project, it could encourage the industry to explore more such ventures. Kriti's next solo-led film is reportedly a large-scale horror project with Maddock Films. While further details about the project have not been confirmed in the information provided, her comments have brought attention to the commercial expectations surrounding female-led theatrical releases and the importance of audience participation in driving change.

Zaheer Iqbal, who made his Bollywood debut with Notebook in 2019, has reflected on his journey as an actor and how his approach to choosing films has evolved over the years. After starring in Double XL in 2022, the actor is now seen in the psychological thriller Tu Hai Meri Kiran. In an exclusive interview with HT Lifestyle, Zaheer spoke about his growing interest in acting, his career aspirations and his desire to explore diverse characters. Discussing what attracted him to Tu Hai Meri Kiran, directed by Karan Rawal, Zaheer said, The first thing that drew me was the fact that it gave me scope to perform and do something different, something that's not me at all in real life. Reflecting on the preparation required for the role, he added, Though I havent gone that deep into the psyche of the person, with workshops and direction, I was able to do justice to the character. The film explores the distinction between love and obsession, a subject on which Zaheer expressed strong views. I completely disagree with the way this guy is in love and his obsession. I disagree with every single thing he said and did, and the way he said it and the way he did it. He also emphasised the importance of recognising the difference between love and obsession in relationships. Zaheer, who married actor Sonakshi Sinha in 2024, also spoke about the importance of understanding one's partner before marriage. Reflecting on their relationship, he said, We dated for so long before our marriage, we knew all the good and the bad and the ugly about each other. So, there were no surprises, and I think that's how a marriage should be. I think you should get to know someone before you decide to spend the rest of your life with them because I genuinely believe that deciding who you marry is the biggest and the most important decision of your life, he said. Looking back at his career, Zaheer acknowledged that every film has contributed to his growth as an actor. I learn with every passing film, especially by meeting new people, collaborating with directors and producers, and understanding how differently people work. Notebook taught me a lot, and I've used a lot of that learning in this film and that's why I've grown as an actor. I want to do different characters and good scripts, and I don't look at anything else. He also recalled how his initial expectations of becoming an actor changed after entering the industry. When I became an actor, I wanted to be a hero and do the high-speed shots, the dancing and the glamour. That was a big part of it. However, his priorities gradually shifted towards the craft itself. But when I started working, I realised that I've fallen in love with acting, with wanting to act and play characters. Now, it's all about acting and being a good performer. I don't look at scripts in terms of whose character is more important or things like that. I just look for a good script and a good character for me to play, he added. While Zaheer hopes to explore action films, particularly those involving hand-to-hand combat, he also wants audiences to recognise his dedication to his work. I don't think people have realised how hardworking and hungry I am. People see me travelling and enjoying life, but they don't see how driven I am when it comes to work. That's what I want people to see, he said. For Zaheer, success is not defined by professional achievements alone. If I am happy, I am successful. I've always been happy as a person. I'm a very optimistic person, and because of that, I always feel I'm very successful, he said.

The actor shared a video of himself playing an electric guitar while jamming with a group of musicians accompanying him on drums and other instruments. Sporting a yellow electric guitar, Saif appeared to be enjoying the impromptu session, with amplifiers and musical equipment completing the setup. Adding a touch of humour to the post, he wrote, Found the groove, lost the tempo, had a great time anyway. Reacting to the post, Saifs wife, Kareena Kapoor Khan, left a playful comment that read, Whos the coolest husband in the world. Can I say mine? Her response added a personal touch to the actors musical update, with Kareena expressing her affection for her husband through the comment.

The actor has also performed with rock bands, including Parikrama. In May 2025, Kareena shared glimpses of Saif and their elder son, Taimur Ali Khan, jamming together at home. Having missed a Guns N Roses concert, the actress found her own musicians at home and shared pictures of the father-son duo with the caption, Might have missed Guns N Roses but I got my own band people. Apart from music, Saif has also offered glimpses of his interest in reading. The actor recently made his Instagram debut with a post dedicated to the Pataudi Library. The post featured pictures of him posing inside the library and spending time reading. Soon after joining the platform, Saif began following just one account, that of Kareena Kapoor Khan. The decision caught the attention of social media users, many of whom referred to him as a green flag for following his wife and nobody else. Meanwhile, Saif recently made headlines for his reaction to winning a two-year supply of ghee on Kaun Banega Crorepati. He appeared on the Amitabh Bachchan-hosted quiz show alongside Akshay Kumar to promote their film Haiwaan. His excitement upon learning about the prize went viral, earning him the affectionate nickname ghee legend among fans. More recently, Saif appeared alongside Kareena on The Great Indian Kapil Show, where he jokingly clarified that he was yet to receive the two-year supply of ghee.

Karan Johar cheers for Teja Sajja as he hosts The Traitors Telugu
Karan Johar has extended his support to Teja Sajja as the actor takes on hosting duties for The Traitors Telugu. Having hosted the Hindi edition of the reality show, Karan is familiar with the format, which revolves around deception, strategy, shifting loyalties and unexpected twists. His support for Teja marks a crossover moment between the hosts of the two editions. Known for its focus on trust and betrayal, The Traitors challenges contestants to navigate a game in which every decision can change the course of the competition. With Karan having guided the Hindi version through its share of mind games and strategic moves, his experience with the format adds context to his encouragement for Teja as he steps into the hosts role for the Telugu edition. Teja Sajja, who is known for his work in films and his portrayal of a superhero on screen, will now lead the Telugu adaptation of the reality show. As the host, he will oversee the game as contestants navigate alliances, attempt to identify deception and make strategic decisions to stay ahead. The format places trust at the centre of the competition, with participants required to assess one another while protecting their own positions in the game. Karan's support also brings together two editions of the same franchise, highlighting the connection between the Hindi and Telugu versions. While the two editions cater to different language audiences, the central premise remains the same: contestants must rely on their instincts, question the intentions of others and make calculated moves as the game unfolds.

Pankaj Tripathi is set to make his hosting debut at the IIFA Digital Awards 2027, but the actor admitted that the responsibility has left him nervous. Known for his soft-spoken nature, Pankaj will share hosting duties with his Mirzapur co-stars Ali Fazal and Abhishek Banerjee at the ceremony scheduled to take place in Abu Dhabi next year. The trio recently attended the IIFA 2027 press conference in Mumbai, where they spoke about their upcoming hosting responsibilities and shared a glimpse of their camaraderie off screen. While Ali Fazal discussed the box-office performance of Mirzapur The Movie, Pankaj opened up about his apprehensions about taking the stage as a host for the first time. Ali Fazal Talks About Mirzapur The Movie's Box-Office Performance Mirzapur The Movie collected in excess of Rs. 200 crores at the domestic box office. Reflecting on the film's performance, Ali spoke about its contribution to theatrical business at the press conference. Hosting is fine, but this year we have contributed to the box office in a little way. He further expressed gratitude for the response the film received from audiences, adding, We are very happy with all the love. We managed to bring a few people to the theatres with our film Mirzapur, Ali added. Pankaj Tripathi Opens Up About His IIFA 2027 Hosting Debut While Abhishek Banerjee recalled hosting the IIFA Awards twice and Ali Fazal mentioned his previous experience at the event, Pankaj will be stepping into the role for the first time. Introducing him to the stage, Ali said, Theres a third person who will be hosting for the first time, so we want to give him a little warm-up. Lets welcome Pankaj Tripathi to the stage. Speaking about his upcoming stint, Pankaj admitted that hosting was unfamiliar territory for him. He said, I am very scared because I am not used to hosting. I am soft spoken. I talk slowly, and I have seen people often shout while hosting. So I am scared who will listen to my soft speech there. The actor also offered a humorous take on how he plans to approach the responsibility, saying, I will make my hosting feel spiritual. It should feel like this man will transform life today. I will transform the audience, their soul with my hosting. Their lives will change. It wont be just an award. I will be more of a ghost than a host. I might make mistakes.

Zee TVs Jagadhatri has taken a new turn in its storyline, bringing Jagadhatri, played by Sonakshi Batra, and Shivaay, portrayed by Farman Haider, closer after a series of challenges. The show recently saw Jagadhatri being arrested for the alleged murder of Rudra, played by Ayushh Shrivastava. However, she eventually discovered that Rudra was alive and had staged his death to frame her while being involved in an illegal drug syndicate. With the truth finally revealed, Jagadhatri has been proven innocent, and she and Shivaay have confessed their love for each other. The two have now reunited, with Jagadhatri returning to the Deshmukh house as Shivaays wife. Maya, played by Sayantani Ghosh, has also welcomed her, marking a new phase in the couples relationship. Speaking about the reunion and what lies ahead for their characters, Sonakshi Batra and Farman Haider shared their thoughts on the evolving storyline and their experience of working together. Sonakshi Batra said, From colleagues to best friends, and finally husband and wife, Jagadhatri and Shivaay have begun a beautiful new chapter together. Shivaays prayers are finally answered when Jagadhatri lovingly accepts his proposal and calls him her husband. But no fairytale is free from hardship. Now, #ShivDhatri will share their romantic moments while standing hand in hand to solve crimes and family disputes. Jagadhatri has been proven innocent before the entire family, yet the Deshmukhs have not fully accepted her. Rudra remains behind bars because of her, keeping resentment alive within the family. As Jagadhatri and Shivaay uncover the Deshmukhs hidden connection to the world of crime, they must expose the familys darkest secrets. For Shivaay, the battle is deeply personal because it means standing against his own family. For Jagadhatri, it means confronting the family of the man she loves. Its been wonderful working with Farman. Hes a brilliant actor and an incredibly supportive co-star. We both care deeply about our characters and the story, which is why were always discussing our scenes and looking for ways to bring more depth and nuance to our performances. Theres a natural ease and chemistry between us that the audience seems to love, and were truly happy to be able to bring that to the screen. Farman Haider described the reunion as an important moment in the characters journey, highlighting how the revelation about Rudra and Jagadhatris innocence has changed their relationship. He said, I think this is a very special phase for Shivaay and Jagadhatri because the truth about Rudra has finally been revealed, and Jagadhatri has been proven innocent. After everything they have been through, Shivaay and Jagadhatri have finally confessed their love for each other, which makes their reunion even more meaningful. I am sure ShivDhatri fans will be thrilled to see this side of their relationship and enjoy the chemistry between them. Along with these romantic moments, the audience can also look forward to more action, unexpected twists and exciting cases as Jagadhatri and Shivaay continue to work together. Shooting with Sonakshi is always a great experience because she is a very professional actor, and we both put a lot of effort into our scenes. We share a great understanding as co-stars, which makes it easier to perform together and ensures that our scenes translate well on screen. I am sure this new phase will be a treat for ShivDhatri fans. While the truth about Rudra has been exposed and Jagadhatri has cleared her name, several questions remain unanswered. She must still identify the person within the Deshmukh family responsible for her mothers death and uncover the truth behind the events surrounding her. As Jagadhatri and Shivaay navigate married life, their relationship will continue to develop alongside crime investigations, family conflicts and new revelations. Viewers can watch Jagadhatri from Monday to Friday at 10:30 p.m. on Zee TV. Also Read : Himanshu Soni enters Jagadhatri as ACP Shaurya Rathi; says, I am excited to be a part of this intriguing track
