“Speaking of Abhishek Bachchan,
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Abhishek had a fairy tale wedding on April 20, 2007. Since then, the couple have been immensely loved by their fans, and whenever they step out, all the spotlight is on them.
When Abhishek and Aishwarya sat down to chat with TV show host Oprah Winfrey, they talked about several things like how Abhishek proposed to Aishwarya, how they spend their time together and what is the rule of the house established by Jaya Bachchan. Midway through the conversation, Oprah asked the Dasvi actor, “How does it feel to be married to the most beautiful woman in the world?” Without taking a moment, he replied, “Oh, that’s easy on the eyes.” “
Moving on, Abhishek’s Dasvi co-actor Nimrat Kaur discussed how people pay too much attention to other people’s weight issues. The actress gained 15 pounds for her role in Dasvi and shared her before and after photos, while writing a powerful note.
She wrote about how people around her reacted to her eating habits as she tried to gain weight. The message read: “Weigh in on it… Swipe left for my thousand words, this picture won’t speak.”
The actor shared, “In an era of heightened expectations of what we ‘should’ look like, at all times – gender, age and profession with no bars, I share a small chapter of my life that has brought learnings that will last a lifetime.”
“When Ayushmann Khurrana debuted in Shoojit Sircar’s Vicky Donor ten years ago, he became an instant favorite with audiences, but Ayushmann’s road to success wasn’t always easy.
Ayushmann recalled an incident that happened almost 11 or 12 years ago. He explained that once, some auditions were held in a separate room from the waiting room which housed many aspiring actors. “I remember everyone was seated and you just auditioned in front of everyone. I was shocked, I was like ‘what is this?’ They were like ‘read your lines’. I told them ‘everyone will see, they will take my ideas’. When he asked if he could give his audition last, he was asked to leave.
“More news on Ayushmann’s Vicky Donor. Ayushmann co-actor Annu Kapoor says he was disappointed that Vicky Donor’s producers focused only on the lead actor.
In an interview with Hindustan Times, the actor said, “During filming it was quite good and wholesome, but I certainly felt let down by the producers for not giving me space or promotion during They just wanted to highlight and promote the hero and definitely not Annu Kapoor and believe me I’ve always faced this kind of bias for a long time whether it’s a movie or a TV show or a show radio. Maybe they don’t like ugly faces like Annu Kapoor”,

“Actor Mrunal Thakur prefers to follow his instincts when it comes to signing projects.
Mrunal is now gearing up for Jersey, which has been awaiting a release since December 2021. Claiming she doesn’t feel butterflies, but “a whole zoo” inside her, she said roles like these rarely come to an actor.
Directed by Gowtam Tinnanuri and presented by Allu Arvind, Jersey is the Bollywood remake of the 2019 Telugu film of the same name.
In an interview with indianexpress.com, Mrunal said, “I just want to be associated with good scripts, play a background woman and see what she contributes.” “”
“And finally,
After receiving backlash for promoting a brand of pan masala, actor Akshay Kumar has announced he is stepping down as an ambassador. The actor took to Twitter and apologized to his fans, saying he would be more careful about the brands he endorses in the future.
Akshay wrote, “I’m sorry. I would like to apologize to you, all my fans and supporters. Your reaction over the past few days has touched me deeply. While I do not condone and endorse tobacco, I respect the outpouring of your feelings in light of my association with Vimal Elaichi. In all humility, I step back. I have decided to contribute the entire approval fee to a worthy cause.
