Aditi Rao Hydari has been receiving attention for her performance in the recently released Lust Stories 3, in which she plays Saira, a woman navigating desire, intimacy and female pleasure while also dealing with the emotional dynamics within her family. One of the important relationships in her story is the bond she shares with her father-in-law, played by Gajraj Rao. Speaking about the relationship portrayed in the film, Hydari said the father-in-law character stood out to her because of the understanding and support he extends to Saira. She also credited director R. Balkis interpretation and Raos presence for adding emotional depth to their scenes. What was written on paper was very beautiful. But obviously, when the director comes in and peppers it with their understanding of what it is, and you have an actor like Gajraj Rao in front of you - I think for me, it was very tender. I think what really struck me in the story was the progressive nature of that family, where the father-in-law is an ally to this girl. Because everybody says, , . But to actually feel like you have a confidant in a father-in-law in 1987, I think that's absolutely wonderful. Like I always say, this is yesterday actually it struck me that this is kind of almost like an ideal love story, where there are unfulfilled desires, but they're all unfulfilled with a lot of love, she explained simply. Hydari also spoke about the role of creativity in helping women find their voice. She said she appreciated the way Saira receives support from both her husband and father-in-law as she explores her artistic side through different forms of expression. For a girl to be able to find their courage through artistry, I find that very incredible as well. For both the husband and the father-in-law to be allies in this is so beautiful, whether it's through dance, music, writing, poetry, literature. Even for girls and for all of us, that is our voice. And that really gives us a wholesomeness that is ours. I find that very wonderful generally in life. So I really liked that that scene was really so tender. My father passed away much earlier than he should have. He was not well. And for me, any scene between a parent and a child then becomes very... very... it just means so much more. So it was very, very moving. It was very beautiful, she added. Through Saira, Hydari explores different facets of womanhood, including desire, intimacy and self-expression. The relationship between Saira and her father-in-law adds another emotional layer to the story, while Hydaris personal experience with the loss of her father made the parent-child moments particularly meaningful for her. The film also looks at how family relationships can offer support as individuals navigate their personal identities and aspirations. For Hydari, the emotional connection attached to these scenes made her experience of portraying them especially personal.

Pooja Meri Jaan is set to premiere on Hindi Zee 5 on October 2, bringing together Mrunal Thakur, Huma Qureshi and Vikram Singh Chauhan in a drama that explores rejection, obsession, consent and the way perception can influence how a situation is understood. Directed by Navjot Gulati and produced by Dinesh Vijan and Amar Kaushik under Maddock Films, the film revolves around Pooja and the conflicting accounts surrounding a series of unsettling events in her life. Speaking about what drew her to the project, Mrunal Thakur said the complexity of her character was a key reason she wanted to be part of the film. She also highlighted how the story deliberately holds back answers and leaves the audience to form their own understanding of the events. She said, From the very beginning, I was drawn to this part because I knew it would allow me to explore the many layers I have as an actor and bring something different to the table. Pooja is a deeply layered character, and what drew me to both the film and her journey was the complexity of what unfolds around her. The role required me to navigate several emotional shades while consciously holding back the answers that the audience is meant to discover for themselves. The story constantly makes you question what you see, what you believe, and how quickly our perceptions can shape the way we judge a person or a situation. It was an intense and challenging experience, but also an incredibly rewarding one. I am excited for audiences to experience the film, unravel Poojas journey and engage with the questions it raises around relationships, rejection, consent, perception and, ultimately, the judgements we make as a society. Huma Qureshi, who plays Sana, a lawyer involved in understanding the circumstances surrounding Pooja, spoke about the films decision to present its central situation through multiple perspectives. According to her, Sanas legal perspective becomes an important part of piecing together the conflicting accounts. What makes Pooja Meri Jaan interesting is that it does not look at its central situation from just one point of view, said Huma. Sana brings a legal perspective into the story, as she tries to piece together what happened and understand the conflicting accounts surrounding Pooja. The film explores how perception can shape the way we understand people and events, and how difficult it can be to separate assumptions from the truth. It was a powerful experience to be part of a story that is emotionally engaging while also asking uncomfortable questions about consent, responsibility, justice and societal judgement. Vikram Singh Chauhan also pointed to the films shifting perspectives as one of the aspects that interested him. The actor said the story examines relationships, rejection and what happens when boundaries are tested without providing straightforward answers. Pooja Meri Jaan is the kind of story that stays with you because it makes you question how well we really know a situation or the people involved in it. What drew me to the film was the way it explores relationships, rejection and the emotions that can emerge when boundaries are tested. The story keeps shifting your perspective and makes you question what is true and what is shaped by perception. It was an interesting and challenging experience to be part of a film that does not hand the audience easy answers, but instead encourages them to look deeper, question their assumptions and form their own understanding of what unfolds. Pooja Meri Jaan also stars Vijay Raaz. The film will premiere on Hindi Zee 5 on October 2, 2026. Also Read: Director Navjot Gulati on Pooja Meri Jaans delayed release, I believe a good film stands the test of time

Rashmika Mandanna added another international feather to her cap as she walked the Milan Fashion Week circuit as the face of Onitsuka Tiger's much-awaited 2027 collection. Known for her range on screen, the actress drew attention for her poise and personal style at the show and shared the spotlight with global names including TWICE's Momo, actor Tomohisa Yamashita, and Thai stars Baifern and Gulf. The event brought together an eclectic mix of entertainment figures from across Asia, reflecting Onitsuka Tiger's growing pull as a brand that straddles both fashion and pop culture. For Rashmika, the appearance marks yet another checkpoint in a year that has seen her increasingly courted by international labels looking to tap into her pan-Indian popularity and social media reach. For the occasion, Rashmika opted for a bespoke ensemble from the brand's SS27 line, built around a modern, urban aesthetic. She stepped out at the custom gas station-inspired set in a structured mustard-orange corduroy jacket layered over a classic blue-and-white striped T-shirt, offset by an unexpected mint-green pleated mini skirt. Beige knee-high socks with visible texture and custom red footwear featuring distinctive ankle straps rounded off the look. Together, the pieces reflected the brand's heritage-meets-future design philosophy, playing off the industrial backdrop of the venue. The gas-station-inspired set design itself became a talking point among attendees, with the retro-futuristic staging tying neatly into Onitsuka Tiger's broader SS27 narrative of blending old-school craftsmanship with contemporary silhouettes. Rashmika's styling leaned into that same push-and-pull between nostalgia and newness, making her look one of the more talked-about pairings of the evening. This isn't Rashmika's first outing on the international fashion circuit, and her Milan appearance adds to a run of high-profile global moments for the actress. Being seen alongside artists like Momo, Yamashita, Baifern, and Gulf underlined the scale of the event and pointed to her expanding footprint beyond Indian cinema. Attendees and media at the event also noted her easy charm, which added to her presence at the show. Industry observers have pointed to such appearances as evidence of a broader shift, with international brands increasingly viewing Indian stars as valuable ambassadors capable of drawing eyeballs across multiple markets simultaneously. For Rashmika, whose film work has already found audiences well beyond India, the fashion route offers a parallel avenue to build a truly global brand. With this appearance, Rashmika continues to build a fashion identity that runs parallel to her film career, further cementing her status as one of Indian entertainment's most recognisable faces on the world stage.
