While working across industries has allowed the actress to explore different characters and stories, it has also required her to constantly adapt to new languages, accents and dialects. During a recent Ask Me Anything session, Khanna opened up about the process, describing it as a continuous learning experience. Speaking about the preparation involved in getting the linguistic details right for her roles, Raashii said, It honestly feels like I am in a lifelong exam that just doesn't end. There's always another language, another accent, another pronunciation to get right. And unfortunately, there's no graduation day. The actress has worked in projects across different language industries, making language preparation an important part of taking on roles outside her linguistic comfort zone. From getting the pronunciation right to understanding the nuances of an accent or dialect, the process can involve preparation beyond the performance itself. For an actor working across multiple industries, such details can also become an important part of creating a believable character. Khannas comments offer a glimpse into the preparation that goes into moving between languages while continuing to build a career across Indian cinema. On the work front, Raashii Khanna is currently filming the second season of Raj & DKs Farzi. The series sees her return as RBI officer Megha Vyas, with Shahid Kapoor and Vijay Sethupathi also part of the cast. The second season is among her upcoming projects and will continue the story established in the first instalment. Khanna is also set to share the screen with Rajinikanth in the upcoming Tamil-language action thriller Dharman. The project adds another regional-language film to her upcoming slate. In addition, the actress has an untitled project with Akshay Kumar, Vidya Balan, and director Anees Bazmee in the pipeline. With projects spanning Hindi and South Indian cinema, Khanna continues to work across languages and industries, making linguistic preparation an ongoing part of her acting journey.

[feed_description] => Thirty years after Diljale released, Harman Baweja has revisited memories from the films sets, recalling an early experience that shaped his understanding of filmmaking. The actor, producer and writer was 15 when he visited the sets of the film, directed by his father and filmmaker Harry Baweja, and found himself trying to understand what exactly a director does while every department on a film set appeared to have a defined role. Harman remembers watching the shoot of Shaam Hai Dhuan Dhuan, with Saroj Khan choreographing the song, Veeru Devgan handling the action and Naidu working on the camera. Observing the different departments at work, he eventually asked his father about his role as a director. I remember sitting and having lunch and then looking at my father and saying, I'm very confused, what do you do on set? Everybody on that lunch table laughed. I was like, Veeruji is doing the action, Sarojji is doing the choreography, Naidu uncle is doing the camera work. All the actors are doing their job. So, I was like, what are you doing as a director? Because everybody's doing their job, Harman recalled. According to Harman, Harry Bawejas response became an early lesson in how different departments come together to serve a films overall vision. He just looked at me and said, You're absolutely right. He told me the job of a director is to effectively tell and narrate a story in the audiovisual medium. These HODs, these technicians, these crews they're a plethora of talent, but eventually they all have to fall into the vision of what the director wants to say, Harman said. Another memory from the same shoot involved Shaam Hai Dhuan Dhuan. Harman recalls that after the song was initially recorded, both Harry Baweja and composer Anu Malik were not completely convinced with the result. The song was subsequently revisited before the team decided to go ahead with it. For Harman, the experience became an early example of trusting creative instinct and revisiting a piece of work when it did not feel right initially. Today, I feel so blessed that I had the chance to witness my father and all these great actors, technicians and choreographers doing their magic. Being around them at that age and seeing how a film comes together has definitely helped me become a better filmmaker. I carry those learnings with me as I continue to build my own journey and carry forward my father's legacy, he added. Three decades later, Harman has expanded his work across acting, production and writing. Following his acting comeback with Scoop, he took on a larger role at Baweja Studios as Managing Director and producer. He has also co-written and produced projects including Mrs. and System. His current slate includes Haq, Kaptaan, Bhagwat Chapter One: Raakshas, Dil Ka Darwaja and Jugaddu, while Captain India is currently on floors. For Harman, looking back at Diljale brings him back to an early set experience that introduced him to the collaborative nature of filmmaking. The lessons he recalls from watching his father work continue to inform his approach as he builds his own career across different aspects of the film industry.

It is an unusual legacy for a thriller. More than a decade after the first Hindi film, a detail from its story has become an annual pop culture reference. Vijay has remained a compelling character for another reason. He is an ordinary man who makes an extraordinary choice to protect his family and then has to live with its consequences. Audiences can understand his instinct to protect his wife and daughters while still questioning the choices he makes. That conflict remains central to his character. Whenever Vijay seems to have found a way out, there is a sense of relief, followed by the question of what his actions might cost his family. The Drishyam franchise also allowed audiences to think alongside its protagonist. Vijays interest in cinema helps him notice details that others may overlook and construct a story that can stand up to scrutiny. The films encourage viewers to pay attention in much the same way observe a gesture, remember a date and question an explanation. The twists work because the clues are often visible, even when their significance is not immediately clear. This combination of family drama and suspense has helped the Hindi franchise maintain its theatrical appeal. Drishyam 2, which released in 2022, went on to become a major box office success, bringing audiences back to a case they believed they already understood. Now, the story is set to reach its final chapter with Drishyam: The Conclusion. In the film, the Salgaonkar family faces fresh pressure as SP Rajveer Singh Tomar joins Meera and Mahesh Deshmukh in their pursuit of the truth. Vijay has managed to navigate difficult situations before, but the question now is whether he can protect his family once again or whether the choices that helped them will eventually catch up with him. Even viewers familiar with the Malayalam films cannot assume they already know how this story will unfold. The Hindi conclusion follows a fresh story, giving this version of Vijay Salgaonkar a different final chapter. The mystery is also designed for the big screen, where the reactions of an audience can become part of the experience. Drishyam has often relied on moments when viewers notice the same clue and gradually understand what it means. On Friday, 2 October, the date that became closely associated with Vijay Salgaonkar returns as the story reaches its final chapter. Everyone remembers where Vijay said he was. Now, audiences will see where his story ends.

The Tamil-language drama is among the two Indian films selected for the Vision Asia section at the 31st Busan International Film Festival. Directed by debut filmmaker Sailesh Rathnakumar, Selvi follows Selvi, played by Patil, a migrant home-care nurse working in the homes of wealthy families. Her job involves demanding shifts that can last anywhere between 12 and 72 hours, leaving her with little time for rest, independence or a life outside work. The film begins as a story centred on migration, female friendship and the realities of caregiving. However, the narrative gradually takes a darker turn when details of an incident from Selvis past begin to emerge. The story then moves into the space of a psychological thriller, exploring themes of memory, survival and the lengths a person may go to protect the life they have built. The newly unveiled poster originated from an idea by Anushka Madhavan, which was further developed by Sailesh and given its final treatment by Shree Teertha. Through its imagery, movement and layered visual elements, the poster seeks to offer a glimpse into Selvis inner world. Anjali Patil, who also serves as the films producer, spoke about the significance of the project and its upcoming premiere at Busan. She said, Selvi is a very personal film for me, and as a producer and actor, this journey has meant a lot. The film looks at migration, caregiving, labour, dignity and survival through an Indian experience, but these are conversations that go beyond borders. Im very excited to take Selvi to Busan and experience the festival with the film. There is something special about seeing a film you have worked on so closely being presented to an international audience. Im looking forward to being there, meeting filmmakers and audiences, and sharing Selvi with them. It feels like a very meaningful moment for all of us. The film has been edited by nine-time National Award winner A. Sreekar Prasad, while the sound design is by National Award winner Anand Krishnamoorthi, who received the National Award for Ponniyin Selvan: Part I. Archana Padmini and Vinoth Kishan are also part of the principal cast. Selvi is co-produced by the Red Sea Fund, an initiative of the Red Sea International Film Festival, and supported by Hong Kong Asia Film Financing. The film is set to have its world premiere at the Busan International Film Festival this October.

The actors, who are part of Lust Stories 3, spoke about the risks involved in filming such scenes and how they deal with the possibility of footage being shared without their control. Their comments come after Radhika Apte recently recalled feeling scared when nude scenes from her 2016 film Parched were leaked online. The incident brought attention once again to the challenges actors can face when intimate footage from films reaches platforms and websites beyond the intended release. Radhikka Madan says leaks are beyond an actors control In an interview with News18, Radhikka Madan, who features in an intimate scene with Ali Fazal in Lust Stories 3, acknowledged that actors cannot completely control what happens to such footage once it is filmed. She said that performers need to trust the intention behind their work as well as the filmmakers who create the scene, before moving on from it. Radhikka also admitted that she considers the possibility of a leak while agreeing to perform an intimate scene. She said, Jinki nazrein kharab hai, unka hum kya kar sakte hai? We cant barge into their homes and tell them to refrain from doing these things. You genuinely cant do anything. When you do an intimate scene, you have to keep in mind that a leak is always a possibility. You go into it knowing that risk exists and also hope that it doesnt happen. Vijay Varma on dealing with audience gaze Vijay Varma also reflected on the issue, recalling his intimate scene with his then rumoured girlfriend Tamannaah Bhatia in Sujoy Ghoshs segment of Lust Stories 2. The scene was widely circulated online and reportedly downloaded from multiple websites. Talking about how he approaches intimate scenes despite the possibility of footage circulating, Vijay said, We need to be able to shut out the audience gaze while filming such scenes. We know that these clips are going to circulate a lot. Thats just the nature of how things work. There are some things you cant change. Certain clips get floated around a lot more on all kinds of pages. But if I cant let go of these thoughts, I wont be able to do the work that I do, and I cant be pushing boundaries as an actor. Lust Stories 3 is the third instalment in the anthology franchise. The film brings together Vikramaditya Motwane, Kiran Rao, Shakun Batra and Vishal Bhardwaj, who have directed four stories exploring love, desire, intimacy and modern relationships. The anthology features Vijay Varma, Radhikka Madan, Ali Fazal, Aditi Rao Hydari, Konkona Sen Sharma and others.

The show combines food trivia, quick-fire questions, competition and celebrity banter, bringing food knowledge into an entertainment format. The concept of Yess Chef! revolves around testing how much celebrities know about food, from ingredients and dishes to their stories, history and lesser-known facts. The show aims to make food knowledge more engaging while giving participants a chance to compete and showcase what they know. Explaining the idea behind the show, Ranveer Brar says, We brag about our cricket knowledge. We flex our Bollywood knowledge. So why not food? Theres so much about our food, its stories, ingredients, history and quirks, that we should know and be proud of knowing. With Yess Chef!, the idea is to make food knowledge cool, to give it that same bragging value. I want people to be able to flex their food knowledge. The first episode featured Zakir Khan and Zeeshan Khan competing against Aparshakti Khurana and Angad Bedi. The episode, described through the phrase 4 bhai, chaaron tabahi, brought together food-related questions, friendly competition, revelations and confident answers from the participants. The upcoming episodes will feature several familiar names from the entertainment industry, including Farah Khan, Tejasswi Prakash, Karan Kundrra, Munawar Faruqui, Bharti Singh, Jamie Lever, Kiku Sharda, Gaurav Gera, Viraj Ghelani, Archana Puran Singh, Parmeet Sethi, Mr Faisu, Abhishek Malhan and Rannvijay Singha, among others. The show is owned and produced by 1947 Productions and Ranveer Brar.

The Foundation continues to take forward the vision of legendary filmmaker Yash Chopra by giving back to the industry that has given abundant love to YRF for over 50 years. Through the YCF Scholarship Program, the Foundation supports the children of registered Hindi film industry and FWICE union members in pursuing higher education, offering financial assistance of up to Rs. 5 lakhs per student. While the program has traditionally backed students in media, film and creative disciplines, this year it extends to a wider range of professional and technical courses, including Robotics & Artificial Intelligence, Engineering, IT, Management, Law and Medical studies. The move reflects the evolving landscape of the film and creative industries and the growing role of technology in shaping its future. The 11 students were chosen after a merit- and need-based screening process from over 300 registered applicants. They will receive financial assistance towards their course fees for the 2026-27 academic year. Among the technology-led picks, Nidhi Subhashchandra Yadav is pursuing a B.Sc. in Robotics and Artificial Intelligence Systems at Thakur College, while Aryan Singh is studying B.Tech in CSE (AI & ML) at Thakur Shyamnarayan College of Engineering. Valencia Rojiyar Madhura has enrolled for a B.Tech in Computer Science & Engineering (Cyber Security) at NMIMS College of Engineering, and Uzma Sarfaraz Khan is doing an M.Sc. in IT at Vivek College of Commerce. Prathamesh Pradip Karanjolkar is pursuing an MCA at TIMSCDR (Thakur Institute of Management Studies, Career Development & Research). The engineering cohort also includes Jaid Kalim, who is studying B.Tech in Electronics and Computer Science at Fr. Conceicao Rodrigues College of Engineering, Bandra; Pranjal Pramod Kapure, who is pursuing B.Tech in Mechanical Engineering at the Indian Institute of Technology, Bhilai; and Sachin Vishwakarma, who is enrolled for a B.Tech at K. J. Somaiya Institute of Technology, Mumbai. In commerce and media, Asma Choudhary is pursuing a PG in M.Com (Banking and Finance) at NM College, and Rudra Mangesh Damle is doing a B.Com in Financial Markets at Pillai College of Arts, Commerce & Science, New Panvel. Jay Siddeshwar Jangam is studying Mass Communication & Journalism at CVM University, Gujarat. View this post on Instagram A post shared by The Yash Chopra Foundation (@yashchoprafoundation) Speaking about the initiative, Akshaye Widhani, CEO, Yash Raj Films, shared, The Hindi film industry has always been built on the contribution of people working across every level of the ecosystem, and the YCF Scholarship Program is our way of extending that support to the next generation of their families. What is particularly meaningful this year is seeing that support evolve with the aspirations of the students themselves. From media and management to Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, engineering and medicine, the 11 scholars represent a much wider spectrum of possibilities than when we first started this program. As the industry changes, it is important that the opportunities we create for its families evolve with it too. We are happy to play a small part in helping these students access the education and careers they aspire to. Through this initiative, YCF continues to support the children of the industry's behind-the-scenes workforce, including technicians, light men, spot boys and other daily wage workers who are an integral part of Hindi cinema, helping turn their academic aspirations into opportunities for a brighter future.

The actor-producer shared a video of a handmade statue of the Goddess featured in the folklore fantasy, while also leaving fans with a question about a special detail hidden within the creation. Tumbbad, which developed a cult following after its original theatrical release, found a renewed audience following its 2024 re-release. The films return to cinemas brought it back into the spotlight, with the renewed interest also contributing to anticipation around its sequel, Tumbbad 2.

The character holds significance within the films folklore-driven narrative, making the personalised gesture particularly notable for the actor.

She was busy promoting Nishaanchi, directed by Anurag Kashyap, when she got a call to audition for what she was told was a love story. That love story turned out to be Musafir Cafe. Recalling the sequence of events, Vedika said, Musafir Cafe happened very fast for me. I was in the middle of promoting Nishaanchi (directed by Anurag Kashyap) when I got a call to audition for a love story, which turned out to be Musafir Cafe. I went for a couple of rounds, but I didn't do well initially because my mind was too preoccupied with Nishaanchi. But the casting director, Karan Mally, felt I was perfect for the role of Sudha and he pushed the makers to give me another chance. I was going through that phase when I got a call saying I had landed Musafir Cafe, and I honestly believe it was divine intervention because up until then, I was questioning myself and having existential moments about my place in the industry and whether I was doing the right thing or deluding myself. The good thing is that I jumped into Musafir Cafe, and I realised that the most exciting part of the job is actually doing the job. I was immediately distracted and my spirits were high because I was back to building a character. Speaking about Musafir Cafe, it is a romantic drama directed by Ruchir Arun of Little Things fame and created by Sharanya Rajgopal. It is adapted from Divya Prakash Dubey's bestselling Hindi novel of the same name. The story revolves around modern companionship, serendipity and emotional longing. Vikrant Massey plays Chander, a software engineer who builds a peaceful haven called Musafir Cafe in the hills with the grounded and supportive Preeti. His settled life is shaken when Sudha, his past love, resurfaces, forcing him to confront unresolved feelings, missed chances and life-altering choices. Vedika plays Sudha, while Mahima Makwana also stars in the ensemble, which is supported by veteran actor Adil Hussain. The series also marks Massey's entry into production under his banner Homemade Stories, in collaboration with Terribly Tiny Tales (TTT). It is produced by Anuj Gosalia, Vikrant Massey and Vijay Subramaniam. The show premiered globally on Netflix on July 24, 2026. Coming to Vedikas upcoming projects, it includes Musafir Cafe 2 along with her next Dharma production opposite Lakshya, directed by Prosit Roy.

On her birthday, a look at some of the distinct fashion moods reflected in her wardrobe shows how she has embraced contrasting styles while maintaining a recognisable sense of personal style. The Draped Goddess Mouni Roy opted for a white silk saree paired with a gold-embellished blouse, completing the look with jhumkas. With the Mediterranean landscape in the background, the outfit brought together traditional Indian dressing and an international setting. The look kept the focus on the saree while adding subtle gold detailing through the blouse and jewellery. View this post on Instagram A post shared by mon (@imouniroy) The Red Carpet Beauty For another appearance, Mouni chose a sleek black strapless bodice with a fully embellished gold crystal mermaid skirt that extended into a trail. Posing against a Cannes street at dusk, she kept the styling focused on the outfit, allowing the embellished skirt to remain the central element of the look. The combination reflected her willingness to opt for dramatic silhouettes for red-carpet appearances. View this post on Instagram A post shared by mon (@imouniroy) The Minimalist Mouni also embraces a more understated approach to fashion. In one look, she paired a knotted white shirt with black wide-leg trousers and chunky loafers. With minimal accessories, the outfit relied on its clean silhouettes and monochrome palette. It offered a contrast to some of her more elaborate fashion choices. View this post on Instagram A post shared by mon (@imouniroy) The Maximalist At the other end of the spectrum, Mouni has also experimented with elaborate ensembles. She wore a sculptural 3D geometric gold stardust corset with a satin high-slit skirt that trailed behind her. The outfit was photographed against a black backdrop, keeping the attention on its metallic detailing and structured design. Long crystal earrings completed the look. View this post on Instagram A post shared by mon (@imouniroy) The Risk-Taker Mouni's wardrobe also includes more experimental silhouettes. In one such look, she wore a heavily jewelled strapless corset featuring silver Art Deco-inspired detailing, paired with a sheer black sequinned ballgown skirt. The flowing skirt added movement to the ensemble, while the contrasting textures gave the look a distinctive edge. View this post on Instagram A post shared by mon (@imouniroy) Across these five looks, Mouni Roy demonstrates the range of styles she has explored over the years. From sarees and minimal separates to embellished gowns and structured corsets, her fashion choices span different aesthetics without being limited to one particular category. Her wardrobe reflects a mix of traditional and contemporary influences, along with an interest in experimenting with silhouettes, textures and levels of detailing. Rather than sticking to a single fashion formula, Mouni has continued to switch between understated and elaborate looks depending on the occasion. On her birthday, these contrasting styles offer a glimpse into the different fashion choices that have become part of her public style.

The singer shared a series of pictures from the trip on social media, offering glimpses of his time with family members and his bond with his younger cousin Ayat. Ayaan posted a carousel of photographs from the getaway and captioned it, Great Britain Great Brother. The pictures captured different moments from the family trip, including a playful moment with Ayat. In the first photograph, Ayaan can be seen lying on his stomach on the grass while working on his laptop. Ayat is seen sitting playfully on his back, making for a candid family moment. Another picture shows Ayaan enjoying a picnic with his family. He is seen sitting cross-legged on a mat alongside Arpita Khan, Aayush Sharma and other family members. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Agni (@ayaanagnihotri) The singer also shared a black-and-white picture featuring himself with his friends and cousin Nirvan Khan. Nirvan is the son of Salman Khans brother Sohail Khan. Ayaan is the son of actor-producer Alvira Khan Agnihotri and filmmaker Atul Agnihotri. While he has been pursuing music independently, he recently made his Bollywood playback singing debut with the song Cmon Baby from Bobby Deol-starrer Bandar, directed by Anurag Kashyap. The track marked Ayaans first Hindi film song. He was reportedly encouraged by producer Nikhil Dwivedi to lend his voice to the number. Before entering playback singing, Ayaan had released independent tracks such as You Are Mine and Universal Laws. Interestingly, Cmon Baby is a recreated version of a song from the 1977 film Videsh, which starred Mahendra Sandhu, Shoma Anand and Prem Krishen. The new version retains the original lyrics, while the music has been reworked by Aditya Dev and Payal Dev.

As Vijay Salgaonkar aka Ajay Devgn returns for what is expected to be the concluding chapter of his story, director Abhishek Pathak has opened up about the process of developing and protecting the films climax from fan speculation. In an interview, Pathak revealed that he went through several theories shared online by fans while working on the conclusion. He explained that the team was conscious of avoiding ideas that had already been widely discussed. I actually went through a lot of fan theories on Reddit and the Internet. We were like, Four people are talking about this, five people are talking about that... so it cannot happen. We were trying to stay away from the obvious, and come with something that people weren't expecting at all. The director also discussed how the team approached the final stages of the shoot and edit to retain certain information. According to Pathak, even after the film had reached the editing stage, some portions were still pending to be filmed. He explained that the team used voice-overs and additional editing during this process to control how certain details were presented to audiences. We shot the film, came on the edit, and there was maybe a 10-day shoot pending. In the pending shoot, we actually recorded voice-overs and put everything on the edit to make it better... to hide information and reveal certain things in a way that people enjoy it much better, he shared. Pathak further hinted at the importance of the climax without revealing details about what audiences can expect. He added, The climax is the real (star of the) show, If the big reveal can be held for as long as possible, that's the best thing. Drishyam The Conclusion brings back the franchises central character, Vijay Salgaonkar, while introducing new developments in his ongoing battle with the authorities. The film stars Ajay Devgn, Tabu, Shriya Saran, Rajat Kapoor, Jaideep Ahlawat, Prakash Raj, Kamlesh Sawant, Ishita Dutta and Mrunal Jadhav, among others.

Her production house, Chalk N Cheese Films, produced Srikanth (2024) with T-Series, and the Rajkummar Rao-starrer went on to win the Best Hindi Feature Film award. Understandably, Nidhi is on cloud nine. Chalk N Cheese Films has carved a distinct niche for itself. All three of its films so far Saand Ki Aankh (2019), Srikanth and the Marathi film Ata Thambaycha Naay (2025) have been inspired by remarkable real-life stories and presented in a mainstream, entertaining manner. Saand Ki Aankh and Srikanth, incidentally, were directed by Tushar Hiranandani, who is also Nidhi Parmar Hiranandanis husband. In an exclusive interview with Bollywood Hungama, conducted just before her birthday, the enterprising producer opened up about Srikanths National Award win, her journey into films, her working equation with Tushar, her fascination with Karan Johar and a lot more. Where were you when you learned that Srikanth won the National Award? We were in Goa at my cousins place to celebrate Tushars birthday. I was sitting by the pool with a friend while he was sleeping inside. Suddenly, he came running out and said, Nidhi, we won the National Award. I thought he was dreaming! I told him, You must have dreamt about it. Go back to sleep. He replied, No, really, I just got a call from someone. We were staying in a remote area and neither of us had network on our phones. However, my friend did. She switched on the live stream of the announcement and thats when we saw that Srikanth had indeed won the National Award. It took us a minute to believe it. Soon, we were flooded with congratulatory calls. With Srikanth, an important point has been proven, or rather, disproven, that you need to lobby to win an award. We didnt do anything of that sort. The National Award jury did its job. They saw the film, liked it and awarded us. Even now, people ask us, How did you guys win? or Did you know so-and-so? When we went for the ceremony, we got a chance to meet people from different film industries across the country. Several of them told us that Srikanth deserved the National Award. Two encounters particularly stood out. Aanand L Rais wife told Tushar that the film really deserved to win. Shashwat Sachdevs father hugged Tushar and said that Srikanth was one of his favourite films. That felt really nice. How did the real Srikanth Bolla react to the National Award honour? He has been expecting this award from the very beginning (laughs). Ever since the day we narrated the final script to him, he kept saying, Our film will win the National Award. During the promotions, we literally had to tell him, Please dont say such things! He also dreamt of an Oscar. And he wasnt too far off, because Srikanth was among the films considered to be Indias official entry to the Oscars. It even made it to the top five! So, when we won the National Award, he was his usual nonchalant self. He simply said, I told you we would win! Often, films enjoy strong word of mouth but still struggle to find an audience because of the sheer number of releases. Srikanth, however, arrived at a time when there was hardly any major competition for almost three weeks. Do you think that worked in the films favour? The film had been ready for a while and we were looking for the right release window. The date shifted two or three times. Rajkummar Raos Mr & Mrs Mahi (2024) was also being planned for release around the same time, but it eventually arrived three weeks after our film. May 10, 2024, looked like a great date to us. We met Bhushan Kumar ji and requested him to release the film on May 10 because we felt it was an ideal window. He agreed, and thats how we announced the date. And yes, it turned out to be a dream release for us. What changes for you from here on? I feel we must have done something right to win the National Award, and wed like to continue on that path. At the same time, as makers, we want to evolve. We do want to explore more commercial cinema, but content will always come first for us. Even if we make something more commercial, it still has to have a strong story at its core. After Srikanth, we made Ata Thambaycha Naay, which was a small Marathi film. Its been a year since that film and two years since Srikanth, but its not as if we havent received offers or come across subjects to make. We did try going down the route of putting together a more commercial package, but we realised thats not really how we function. We need to connect with the script. So, even when we do make a commercial film, it will have to be something that genuinely speaks to us. How challenging was it to make Srikanth within a certain budget? I feel I was a very lucky producer because Tushar was the director. I would give him 100 out of 100. Hes a dream director for any producer because hes extremely mindful of the budget. Hes also a master at making a film mounted on a modest budget look beautiful. His DOP is very important to him, so he takes his time finalising the cinematographer. Sudhakar Reddy Yakkanti shot Saand Ki Aankh, while Srikanth was shot by Pratham Mehta. Pratham gave it his absolute best as well, and full marks to him. I dont understand the technical aspects too much. My only brief to Pratham was, Every shot should look like this is a Rs. 50 crore film, even though our COP was Rs. 20 crores! He and all our HODs worked within the budget and still delivered their A-game. Why is your production house called Chalk N Cheese Films? (Smiles) Thats because Tushar and I are like chalk and cheese! We are complete opposites as personalities, right from the kind of food we like and the way we dress to the places we like to visit. So, whenever we make a movie, both of us have to like it, which is actually very difficult! We have to meet somewhere in the middle and find common ground. Even our approach to filmmaking and shooting is very different. How did you get into this profession? I am from Chandigarh and I came to Mumbai to become a director. I was studying to become a CA, although I hated every bit of it. I hated accounts! I was a scholarship student and had topped Economics, which is why I was studying Commerce. Then, I went to watch Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998) with my mother and I went mad over the person who had made the movie (Karan Johar)! I didnt go crazy over Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol or Rani Mukerji. Instead, I kept wondering, Who is this person who has created this world? Thats when I started trying to understand what a director actually does. In the process, I became obsessed with KJo. He opened my mind to a medium that I had never taken seriously before. It completely changed my world, and that was the day I decided that I wanted to pursue a career in cinema. I left everything and came to Mumbai. I did a course at XIC (Xavier Institute of Communications) and started working. Later, I even got the opportunity to work at Karans company, Dharma Productions! So, in a way, he is the reason I came to Mumbai from Chandigarh. Are you still in touch with him? Of course. Karan will always have the warmest place in my heart (smiles).

Kapil kept bossing the second round too with his hits and also inflicted a standing count against Kim to take it 5-0. Kapil made some clever and occasional hits in the third round, knowing that he had done enough in the previous two rounds to win the bout and move into the semis. He will now face 2025 World Championships gold medallist Turabek Khabibullaev in the semifinal. India have had a fruitful campaign so far in boxing at the Asiad. All three boxers in action today won their respective bouts, with Priya Ghanghas and Lovlina Borgohain winning their respective bouts. Priya assured herself of a medal in the women's 60kg category after a unanimous 5-0 win over Tajikistan's Mijgona Samadova in the quarterfinals. Earlier in the day, Lovlina confirmed her medal as well with a strong 5-0 win in the women's 75kg quarterfinal against Korea's Seong Suyeon. India got assured of three medals on Sunday as well when Ankush Panghal, Parveen Hooda and Narender won their bouts. Ankush, the current Commonwealth Games champion, assured India of their first boxing medal at the ongoing Games after defeating Tajikistan's Nekruz Salimov in the men's 80kg quarterfinals by a unanimous decision of 5-0. Meanwhile, Parveen also booked herself a medal in the women's 65kg category after defeating Uzbekistan's Navbakhor Khamidova by 5-0 in the quarterfinal. Later, Narender also booked a medal with a QF win over Thailand's Adthapong Saengtep in the Men's +90kg quarterfinals.

The women's team, seeded third and bronze medallists at the previous Asian Games, had to dig deep after world No. 6 Satomi Watanabe defeated India's Anahat Singh in a five-game battle. The experienced Joshna Chinappa, who is making his seventh appearance at the Asian Games, put India in the lead by defeating Erisa Sano 11-1, 11-8, 11-9. Anahat then played against Watanabe, someone she had beaten in the individual semifinals earlier in the competition, and subsequently won a historic silver medal. This time Watanabe turned the situation around, coming back from a 12 disadvantage to win against Anahat 118, 811, 711, 118 and 119 in a match that lasted 43 minutes and thus level the series. In the deciding match against Akari Midorikawa, Tanvi Khanna managed to build up the courage and won 12-10, 11-9, 4-11, 12-10, thus securing India's spot in the last eight. India had earlier started their campaign with the women's team by beating China 3-0 in their first Pool game. At the same time, the men's team carried on with their period of dominance by beating South Korea 3-0, thus finishing first in their group and moving on to the quarterfinals. Velavan Senthilkumar started off with a win against Na Jooyoung, scoring 11-6, 11-4 and 11-7, while Abhay Singh, who had won a silver medal in the singles event, extended India's lead by defeating Ryu Jeongmin 11-4, 11-7 and 11-1. Veer Chotrani achieved a clean sweep, winning against Oh Seojin 11-6, 11-4 and 11-2. Earlier in the day, the Indian men's team also beat China 3-0, with Suraj Chand, Chotrani and Senthilkumar each securing wins in the individual events. Chand won against Du Shaoqian 11-4, 11-3 and 12-10, while Chotrani defeated U Haizhen 11-5, 11-5 and 11-3. Senthilkumar then concluded the match with a victory over Zhou Penglin by scoring 11-3, 11-2 and 11-4. The women's team had also played against China, winning 2-1 after overcoming a tough challenge. However, Sameena Riaz lost the match when she was behind in two games, the score being 11-8, 11-6, 9-11, 9-11, 12-14. Tanvi regained parity by winning against Zhang Yuning 11-3, 11-5, 11-5, and Chinappa then finished off the comeback with a victory over Liu Ziyi with scores of 12-10, 11-4, 11-6. At the last Asian Games in Hangzhou the Indian men's team won the gold medal and the women's team obtained bronze. The two teams will now aim to progress further in the knockout rounds in Aichi-Nagoya.
