Nani, Sonali Kulkarni, Kayadu Lohar and Raghav Juyal attended the press meet of The Paradise in Mumbai. Mostly, actors of Pan-India films come on stage and answer pre-decided questions asked by the host. But the actors of The Paradise, in a rare instance, decided to take questions from the media as well. As expected, Nani stole the show with his replies, especially his remarks on Shah Rukh Khan and his iconic 1993 film. Nani said, The Paradise is an extremely intense film. Nowadays, when we see a commercial film, emotions or intensity are presented in a light manner; thoda touch karke aa jaata hai! This is because songs or fights are forced into the narrative and in the process, they dont explore the emotions. But in our childhood, our favourite commercial films like Baazigar and many others, the emotions were very intense in these films. But in commercial films of todays times, we dont feel the essence. Yes, the hero is beating up the villain. But you are not shouting Maaro usse! You dont feel the anger or the depth of the situation. He continued, But The Paradise attempts to catch that intensity. If somebody is in pain on screen, youll feel that pain too. If some character is in love, youll be able to relate. From the time the film begins, youll be transported into its world. Youll forget your surroundings for 3 hours! During the Q-and-A session with the media, Raghav Juyal was asked, Whats common between Nani and Shah Rukh Khan? The actors next, King, stars SRK. Before Raghav could answer, Nani replied, Our measurements! Nani smiled and explained, I worked in Yash Raj Films first South film, Aaha Kalyanam (2014). When I went for the photoshoot, thats the first thing they have told me, Sir, you have exact measurements as Shah Rukh sir! I was like, Nice. I have the exact measurements but not the exact payment (laughs). I wish it was the exact payment as well! Raghav then revealed, Both treat everyone equally on the sets. They are very respectful with every single unit member. They are calm. I love those who have patience. Mere mein bilkul nahin hai. I am too impatient (smiles). The Paradise releases in cinemas on September 24. Also Read: Karan Johar to host The Earthshot Prize Awards Night in Mumbai, becomes first Indian to take on role

Avantika Dassani on her bond with mother Bhagyashree: I stand besides her as she always has
Avantika Dassani recently shared a glimpse of her Ganesh poojan in Sangli with her mother, actress Bhagyashree. The occasion also became a moment for Avantika to reflect on the bond she shares with her Aai and the role her mother continues to play in her life. Sharing a picture from the poojan, Avantika spoke about standing by her mother while acknowledging the guidance and strength she has received from her over the years. She wrote, I stand besides her, and as she always has, she continues to teach me: With the strength, grace and blessings of Ganeshji (And for me, my Aai) we will always be on our way forward. Avantikas note highlights the relationship between the two, particularly the way their roles can evolve as a mother and daughter grow together. While Bhagyashree has been a source of guidance for Avantika, the actress also emphasised her own presence beside her mother. The Ganesh poojan in Sangli thus offered a glimpse into their personal bond away from their professional commitments. Avantikas message focused on the values she associates with her mother, including strength, grace and the blessings of Ganeshji. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Avantika (@avantikadassani) Mother-daughter relationships often evolve as daughters grow older, with the equation moving beyond a traditional parent-child dynamic. The guidance received during childhood can gradually become a two-way relationship, with daughters also becoming a source of support for their mothers. For Avantika, that sentiment appears to be reflected in her choice of words. By saying that she stands besides Bhagyashree, she acknowledged the support her mother has extended to her while expressing her intention to be there for her in return. The moment from Sangli also comes as a personal reflection from Avantika on what her mother means to her. Rather than focusing on their public profiles, her post centred on their relationship and the influence Bhagyashree has had on her. Through the picture and accompanying note, Avantika offered a glimpse into the bond she shares with Bhagyashree, with Ganeshjis blessings forming the backdrop to her message about continuing to move forward together.

Ayushmann Khurrana and Sara Ali Khan starrer upcoming film Udta Teer is set to feature a new musical collaboration, with rapper Emiway Bantai joining forces with composer duo Sachin-Jigar for a track in the film. The collaboration brings together the established Bollywood music duo and one of the prominent voices from Indias independent hip-hop space. Sachin-Jigar, known for experimenting across genres, are composing the music for Udta Teer. For the new track, they have teamed up with Emiway, whose rap-driven musical style will add a hip-hop element to the song. The collaboration is expected to bring together different musical influences within the soundtrack of the upcoming film. The track marks a coming together of Bollywood music and the independent hip-hop scene, with Sachin-Jigar handling the composition and Emiway contributing his rap style. While details about the song, including its release date and other creative aspects, have not been revealed yet, the collaboration adds another musical element to the upcoming project. Directed by Aakash A Kaushik, Udta Teer stars Ayushmann Khurrana and Sara Ali Khan in the lead roles. The film is scheduled to arrive in theatres on October 9, 2026. Udta Teer is expected to be set against the backdrop of espionage but approaches the spy genre through comedy. The film is said to revolve around a world where everyone appears to have a secret and trust becomes difficult. At the centre of the story is a spy who inadvertently turns the entire game upside down. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Bollywood Hungama (@realbollywoodhungama) The film combines the elements of a spy thriller with comic situations and chaos, positioning itself as a family entertainer. The story is expected to follow a fast-paced narrative in which the characters find themselves caught up in situations where nobody seems to know exactly what is happening including the protagonist. With Sachin-Jigar composing the films music and Emiway now joining them for a new track, Udta Teer is bringing together mainstream Hindi cinema and contemporary hip-hop as it builds towards its theatrical release. The film will mark another collaboration between Ayushmann Khurrana and Sara Ali Khan, after the last release Pati Patni Aur Woh Do that also featured Wamiqa Gabbi and Rakul Preet Singh. Udta Teer is slated to release in cinemas on October 9, 2026. Also Read: Emiway Bantai reimagines Shah Rukh Khan classic in final Bajis EP track Yeh Kaali Kaali Aankien; ends on a high note
Kartik Aaryan reached a significant milestone in his career as he received the Best Actor in a Leading Role National Award for Chandu Champion at the 72nd National Film Awards ceremony. President Droupadi Murmu presented the honour to the actor and also acknowledged his portrayal of Paralympic champion Murlikant Petkar. Kartik shared the award with Malayalam actor Mammootty, who was recognised for his performance in Bramayugam. During the ceremony, President Murmu highlighted the importance of bringing the stories of notable personalities to cinema and specifically referred to Petkars journey from soldier to Paralympic champion. She said, I believe making biopics on such personalities is a highly commendable effort. A soldier, Shri Murlikant Petkar, who dreamt of becoming famous in the world of sports since childhood, was injured during the 1965 war. Despite this, with his courage and determination, he went on to become Indias first para-athlete to win a gold medal at the Paralympics in 1972. He was honoured with the Padma Shri in 2018, and I congratulate Kartik Aaryan for bringing his personality to life through his performance. Directed by Kabir Khan, Chandu Champion is a biographical sports drama based on the life of Murlikant Petkar, who represented India in swimming at the 1972 Paralympics. Kartik plays the titular character, with Vijay Raaz, Bhuvan Arora, Yashpal Sharma and Rajpal Yadav among the supporting cast. The film follows Petkars journey across different stages of his life and sporting career, portraying his experiences as a soldier and athlete. It was written by Kabir Khan, Sumit Arora and Sudipto Sarkar, and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, Kabir Khan and Firuzi Khan. Chandu Champion released theatrically on June 14, 2024. Kartiks National Award recognition comes for a performance that required him to portray Petkar across different phases of his life. The actor underwent a physical transformation for the role as the film depicted the athletes sporting journey and personal struggles. The 72nd National Film Awards recognised films and performances from 2024, with Article 370 winning Best Feature Film and Yami Gautam receiving Best Actress in a Leading Role for the same film. For Kartik, the honour adds a major recognition to Chandu Champion and marks his first National Award for acting, with the award ceremony bringing together performers and filmmakers from across Indian cinema.

Nora Fatehi recalls moving to India at 22 to pursue Bollywood dreams: You have to be fearless
Nora Fatehi recently opened up about her decision to move to India at the age of 22 to pursue her aspirations of becoming an actor and performer. Speaking on the Untriggered Podcast, Nora recalled her early connection with Bollywood and what encouraged her to take the step despite the challenges that came with starting over in a new country. Nora said she had grown up watching Hindi films and was drawn to the way Bollywood combines music, dance and cinema. She recalled having an instinct that encouraged her to take the leap and explore a career in the industry. Bollywood does music, dance and cinema all in one, this makes so much sense. I grew up watching so many Bollywood films, but I had some feeling inside that pushed me and then the rest is history. Somewhere I feel like you have to be fearless. I knew I wanted to become famous and do cinema and find a way to mix dancing with cinema and do all of that, Bollywood essentially, she shared. Reflecting on her approach after returning to India, Nora said she became focused on building her career and learning the language while attending auditions. She also stressed the importance of staying connected to her personal values while pursuing her ambitions. She said, I came back with a different energy. It was like a go-getter energy. No social life, no friends, no going out. You need to make sure you learn the language and audition, audition, audition. And the one thing that I maintained because it was so important was to maintain my values. My values, my integrity all the way through. She further added, Pursue your dreams, pursue your passion but dont let go of your values and integrity. On the work front, Nora Fatehi has started shooting for The Royals Season 2, in which she stars alongside Ishan Khatter. The actress has also been involved in several music projects this year, including her association with the FIFA World Cup 2026 journey. Her recent releases include Siir Siir, which featured on the Official FIFA World Cup 2026 Album, along with Champions, Locked In and Slay to the Rhythm.

Zee TV has extended its focus on women beyond television with its Zee TV Ladies Special initiative during Ganesh Chaturthi in Mumbai. As part of the initiative, the channel has introduced a dedicated Ladies Special Toilet near the citys popular Parel Cha Raja pandal, offering women access to a safe and hygienic washroom facility from September 14 to 24. Ganesh Chaturthi sees thousands of devotees visiting pandals across Mumbai. With women often spending several hours navigating crowded streets and queues for darshan, access to a clean and safe washroom can become an important part of their overall experience. In high-footfall areas, the availability of basic sanitation facilities can be limited, making it difficult for women to participate in festivities comfortably. Women may sometimes plan their outings around the availability of washrooms, limit their water intake or depend on cafes and restaurants to access clean facilities. During large public celebrations, these challenges can become more noticeable. Through Zee TV Ladies Special, the channel aims to bring attention to this everyday need and make access to sanitation easier during the festive period. The dedicated washroom has been installed near Parel Cha Raja and is designed to be easily identifiable and accessible to women visiting the area. It will remain available from September 14 to 24, allowing visitors to use the facility while taking part in the Ganesh Chaturthi celebrations. Several female artists from Zee TV also visited the facility and extended their support to the initiative. Their participation helped draw attention to the conversation around womens hygiene and the need for accessible sanitation facilities in public spaces. Speaking about the initiative, Mangesh Kulkarni, Chief Channel Officer, Zee TV, said, Zee TV has always believed that the role of a brand is not just to reflect society, but also to influence it in meaningful ways. Our stories have given women a voice, celebrated their choices and challenged the conventions that often define their journeys. With Zee TV Ladies Special, we are taking that philosophy a step further by identifying the everyday gaps that women experience and finding ways to make a tangible difference. For us, the larger vision is to build a culture where womens needs are not treated as an afterthought, but are instinctively considered when we create, participate and shape public spaces. Ladies Special is one expression of that belief. We hope it becomes more than an installation during the festive season and instead contributes to a larger shift in how we think about womens comfort, dignity and participation in everyday life. Through the initiative, Zee TV has sought to highlight how addressing everyday needs can contribute to making public celebrations more accessible and comfortable for women.

The upcoming film Pehla Pyaar Doosri Baar has brought back a sense of nostalgia for actors associated with filmmaker Luv Ranjans early Bollywood outings. Divyenndu, best remembered by many fans as Liquid from Pyaar Ka Punchnama, and Ishita Raj, who made her Bollywood debut with the same franchise, have extended their wishes to the team of the upcoming film. Divyenndu recently shared the trailer of Pehla Pyaar Doosri Baar on Instagram and used the occasion to make a playful reference to his much-loved character from Pyaar Ka Punchnama. Welcoming the new film and its cast, the actor wrote, Kuch pehle jaisa laga kya?? Lekin yeh woh hai nahin.. Toh aaieye hum sab aur specially Liquid ki taraf se welcome karte hain!! All the best to the team of Pehla Pyaar Doosri Baar @sparshwaliaa @alishachopra1 @kuunnnaaalllll @_vaidyasakshi @tusharchhibber @sargun_kaur.luthra @anujpsaini @luv_films View this post on Instagram A post shared by Divyenndu (@divyenndu) Ishita Raj celebrates Luv Ranjan and six newcomers Ishita Raj, who also made her Bollywood debut with Luv Ranjans Pyaar Ka Punchnama, shared her excitement over the new film and the launch of its six newcomers. Reacting to the trailer on social media, the actor congratulated Luv Ranjan, producer Gaurav Anand and the team while highlighting the nostalgic feeling the trailer evoked. Ishita wrote, Finallyyy, its here! And this trailer looks like an absolute blast. Took me straight back in time major nostalgia . Congrats to @luv_films, @gargankur82 and @kuunnnaaallll.

Rajesh Tailang is set to return as Sanjay Kataria in the second season of Bakaiti. While the first season introduced audiences to the dynamics of the Kataria family and the everyday conflicts that shaped their relationships, Season 2 takes Sanjays character into a more vulnerable space. Speaking about Sanjays journey in the new season, Rajesh Tailang said the character has become more accepting of his vulnerabilities. He explained that Sanjay initially viewed opening up about his problems as a sign of weakness, particularly as the head of his family. In this season, Sanjay has accepted his vulnerabilities much more than he did in the first season. As the head of a family, he often felt that sharing his problems with his wife, children, or family was a sign of weakness. But over the course of Season 2, he has grown to understand that being vulnerable is not a weakness. For me, Sanjay's biggest change is his acceptance of his own vulnerabilities and his ability to express them, the actor said. Rajesh Tailang on reuniting with the Kataria family The actor also opened up about returning to the set with the entire Kataria family. While the characters are frequently caught up in arguments and disagreements in the series, Tailang said the atmosphere behind the scenes was very different. The entire Kataria family was together in Season 1 as well, so we already had a lot of fun together. Of course, on the show, the family is constantly fighting and getting into all kinds of situations, but being together on set is a completely different experience. We had a great time shooting together, with a lot of laughter and fun behind the scenes. In fact, we probably had far fewer fights on set than the Katarias do in the series! he said. Sanjay and Buntys father-son dynamic One of the important aspects of Sanjays journey in Season 2 is his relationship with his son Bunty. According to Tailang, the conflicts between the father and son also allow Sanjay to reflect on his own approach to parenting. Bunty does a few things this season that can definitely hurt a fathers ego. But Sanjay makes a conscious effort to understand both himself and the problems his son is going through, rather than simply reacting to him. As a parent, that is something I have taken away from the character: instead of immediately blaming or judging a child, it is important to first understand what they may be going through, Tailang said. The actor also revealed that his own experience as a father helped him connect with Buntys phase of life. My son is also almost the same age as Bunty, so I understand the kind of challenges children face at this age. In a way, Rajesh helps Sanjay become a better father, and Sanjay helps Rajesh become a better father too, he added. Rajesh Tailang on exploring a different side of Sanjay For Tailang, Season 2 also brought the opportunity to explore aspects of Sanjay that had not been explored as deeply earlier. The actor described the experience as both exciting and challenging, particularly because the character enters a different phase of his life. As an actor, playing Sanjay this season was both fun and a little scary at the same time. There were new layers to explore in the character, and Sanjay experiences a completely different side of his life this season. Discovering that hidden side of him and bringing it to the screen was what made the experience particularly interesting for me, he said. With Sanjays emotional journey taking a more introspective turn, Bakaiti Season 2 appears set to explore the Kataria family beyond their familiar arguments and everyday chaos. For Tailang, the new season has also offered an opportunity to examine vulnerability, parenthood and the ways family members learn to understand one another.

Actor Ayushmann Khurrana has sponsored a rifle for Indian shooter Meghana Sajjanar after learning about the athletes difficulties in accessing suitable sporting equipment. According to Sajjanar, Khurrana came across an article about her journey and decided to extend support despite not knowing her personally. Sajjanar, who competes in rifle shooting, was looking to progress to the international level when access to suitable equipment became a challenge. The support from Khurrana enabled her to acquire the equipment she needed for training and competition. The shooter recently met Khurrana and shared details of their interaction on social media. Recalling how the actor came to her aid, Meghana wrote, In our sport, precision is everything but so is the gear in your hands. A year ago, I was pushing my limits but hitting a wall without world class equipment. Then, a single news article changed everything. Ayushmann Khurrana read about my journey and stepped in out of nowhere to sponsor my rifle. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Meghana Sajjanar (@meghana__sajjanar) He didn't know me. We had never met. He just wanted to see an Indian athlete win on the global stage. That rifle leveled the playing field for me, allowing me to train without compromise, take on the best in the world, and achieve what I have today. Today, I finally got to meet the man who quietly backed my dreams when I needed it most. No noise, just pure support for Indian sports. Thank you for being in my corner. Jai Hind!, she added. In competitive shooting, equipment forms an important part of an athletes training and competition setup. For Sajjanar, the rifle sponsorship came as she was working towards competing at the international level. The gesture also comes amid Khurranas broader association with sports-related initiatives. In May 2026, the actor attended Commonwealth Games Day celebrations in Ahmedabad alongside Union Sports Minister Mansukh Mandaviya and Gujarat Deputy Chief Minister Harsh Sanghvi. The event was held as part of the build-up to the 2030 Commonwealth Games, which India is set to host. Khurrana also participated in a five-kilometre cycling rally at the event and spoke about encouraging a sporting culture among young Indians. Olympians and former Commonwealth Games medallists, including shooters Anjum Moudgil and Ankur Mittal, were also present. His latest association with Sajjanar comes through a more direct form of support, with the actor sponsoring equipment that the shooter says helped her continue her preparations for international competition.
