Mumbai: Filmmaker Hansal Mehta has cast his blue-eyed-boy Rajkummar Rao as Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose in an upcoming web series, to go live on ALTBalaji.

Rajkummar is not just excited about exploring a new medium, but also to essay a character he never thought he would get to play.

“For us, as actors, it’s about the story and the character, not so much about the medium.

“I did my first film ‘Love Sex Aur Dhokha’ with Ekta Kapoor’s ALT Entertainment, and to do this new show for ALTBalaji is like coming back home,” Rajkummar said here on Thursday.

Asked to talk about his role, Rajkummar said: “This is why we need a show on Bose. Because if we were making one on (Mahatma) Gandhi, you wouldn’t ask me this.”

The web series is an attempt to bring alive the story of Bose to the current generation, says Mehta, who described him a “rockstar”.

“It will be a compelling and thrilling watch,” Mehta said.

On associating once again with Rajkummar, whom he has directed earlier in “CityLights”, “Shahid”, “Aligarh” and the upcoming “Omerta”, Mehta quipped: “It’s a question all actors ask me.”

This show is not to be confused with a web series on the freedom fighter that is being helmed by filmmaker Kabir Khan for Amazon Prime Video.

PARDES MEIN HAI MERA DIL: SAD NEWS! Show to go OFF AIR

New Delhi: This may not be good news for all the Drashti Dhami aka Naina and Arjun Bijlani aka Raghav fans as the Star Plus show ‘Pardes Mein Hai Mera Dil’ may go off-air very soon.

Shocked? We were too!

Despite of big faces of television, Drashti and Arjun in the show, it could not gain much popularity. Not just this, even the lead characters failed miserably to build a sparkling chemistry.

As per the sources of Spotboye.com, “The real reason for this untimely wrap-up is show’s low TRP. According to a source, it has failed to get audience’s attention. The show, which stars two big television names- Drashti and Arjun as leads (who have their individual fan following) has failed to build the chemistry on-screen.”

The source of the portal also revealed that, “While the last date of the show is not decided yet, we have come to know that the actors and the production team are already aware about the news.”

Recently, Additi Gupta and Laksh Lalwani quit the show as they were not happy the way the track was progressing.

This is shocking also because it’s been only 6months since the show started and already the team has started winding up the serial.

India must stop having problems with sex: Ekta Kapoor

Mumbai: “Banana, strawberry… Do one thing, give a full fruit salad. And yes, chocolate… For dessert.” This is not a woman buying groceries, but condoms in a scene from a web-series for Ekta Kapoor’s newly launched digital app.

The TV czarina, in a no holds barred chat with IANS here about ALT Balaji, said she feels like a kid in a candystore with how the app medium lends itself to storytelling which is free from the trappings of the “acceptable” on a community viewing medium like films and a family viewing medium like television.

“I can’t make stories on TV which are bold enough,” said Ekta, who finds a kiss on the small screen discomforting if her father and veteran actor Jeetendra is around.

“Still, as far as slang and sex is concerned, I’ve curtailed it to two shows (on the app). But I think, as a nation we should stop having a problem with sex. We do not realise that when we start prohibiting and create a sort of taboo against sex, we actually encourage sexual crime.

“A certain sense of prohibition leads to some kind of odd need.”

Ekta, who changed the face of Indian television with shows like “Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi” and “Kahaani Ghar Ghar Ki” at the start of the new millenium, finds the “myopic views” somewhat paradoxical — and ones that need to be set right.

“If there’s a kiss or if we see a girl in a short skirt, there’s a problem, and we actually condemn these things when we have to be way more relaxed about physical expression of love,” she said, pointing out how a girl buying a condom or a pack of sanitary pads, or saying an everyday word like ‘bra’ in public, or being hush about periods, are made out to be “issues” when they are not.

“People are getting embarrassed by things they should be comfortable about. And not getting uncomfortable with things they should be uncomfortable with.

“There’s eve-teasing in so many songs — but that’s okay? We’re not getting uncomfortable with anything non-consensual. We are uncomfortable with sex,” said the Joint Managing Director and Creative Director of Balaji Telefilms.

These pent-up questions in her mind have sort of found a creative vent in the digital medium for Ekta.

“I’m actually able to do TV now a lot more easily because I’m able to do this. Thanks to this vent for creative expression, I can tell stories of importance and then come back and say something way more sanitised on TV,” she said.

It was a realisation that dawned upon Ekta in 2014 when she came out with “Ajeeb Daastaan Hai Ye” — a story of a middle-aged mother, who has been cheated upon by her husband, having an emotional affair with her boss. The show was discontinued following abysmal TV ratings — much to her dismay.

“It was a show very close to my heart, and it never got watched. It was a show with which I was judging India to see if they accept this woman or not.” They didn’t.

“At the end of the day, when you’re going to such a large audience, the thought will have to be sanitised and will have to be one size that fits all,” she realised.

Now that she is juggling with a variety content on different mediums, she has an interesting way to put her perspective about it.

“I’ll always do TV with full respect. It’s like if I start doing house parties, it doesn’t mean I stop celebrating Diwali.

Every year, Assam and its Diasporas celebrate one of the most important cultural festivals of India: Bihu. Bohag Bihu falls on 14, 15 and 16 April. These three days will be marked by festivities across Assam and parts of its neighbouring states. But like a lot of things about northeast Indian culture, Bihu too remains lesser-known to most of India. This Bihu Popular actress Like Devoleena, Parineeta, Shamin and Mahika organise Bihu events at their home and introduce it to their friends over mumbai. They are really crazy about bihu dance and celebrations.

DEVOLEENA BHATTACHARYA: I remember the bihu celebrations of shivsagar at Assam. The stick music, bihu dance and the coconut sweets. I love pitha. Now in Mumbai I keep a small bihu party my mom makes assamese food and sweet and my friends also perform bihu dance with me on stick music. I am really crazy about bihu dance.

SHAMIN MANNAN: Bihu has always been one of my favorite festivals, especially bohag bihu which marks the beginning of a year in assam. I love shopping for the festival and used to be excited about shopping when was a kid. My mom makes all the yummy bihu delicacies and even now she sends them for me all the way from assam. We buy new clothes and love the ladoos and pithas that my mom makes with my friends here in mumbai. I really miss the beautiful sight of bihu dance and the bihu music being played all around the dibrugarh at assam.

PARINEETA BORTHAKUR: I Miss Bihu, but I have a family get together at home as my parents are in town, my mother in law is making pitha, so with the full family around, it’s the Bihu-Bihu feel already at home. During bihu, as a child in Duliajan, we used to get new clothes, we used to wait for Husori (A bunch of people comes to every house and dances Bihu, and blesses them in bihu). We used to dance along with the Husori people. It was so much fun, while talking about it, I am feeling nostalgic.

MAHIKA SHARMA: I just miss bihu celebrations here in mumbai. However, I celebrate it in mumbai I make my friends to dance bihu with me playing bihu songs. I really miss dressing like ‘asomiya suwali’ (Assamese girl) and really fond of pitha and coconut stuff. Bihu is really a great celebration at my hometown, Tinsukia. I really miss it.

New Delhi: Actress and ex-Bigg Boss contestant Sofia Hayat announced her engagement on Instagram. From last few days, she is in Mecca with her fiancée Vlad. But actress mentioned that she had to face gruesome incident at the holy place.

On Friday night, posting a video on Instagram, Sofia said that she got separated from Vlad, was inappropriately touched by strange men, her ‘hijab’ removed and almost strangled to death. While posting the video on social media, she wrote “Islam respects women. A man must not touch a woman that is not his wife, or be violent to her. That is why I love islam. These rules however do not apply in Mecca. Men forget the rules when they go there. Today on my 2nd umra as I attempted again to touch the black stone, I was being pushed by men. One man was pushing his genitals into me from behind..the women’s queue is non existent because men have used their physical strength to push women out of the way. As I was about a metre from the black stone, I was pushed so hard against my ribs I could not breath. I was scared, so I decided to turn back, as I did, men kept pushing, and my hijab came off and got caught between the pushing men, I was being dragged back by it and was started to be strangled by it. I screamed. Suddenly a few good men saw what was happening and came to my rescue. I am so shaken up and sad that at the house of God; men do not care about the words in the Quran. Allah is in me and she says to me that if a man thinks he will go to Jannat by touching the black stone yet disregards the respect Islam has for women, then your hajj or umrah is useless. In the house of Allah women are being disrespected. Allah is the greatest she is the most high … I am so sad this happens in her house in Makkah. The man who lifts a women to the stone and does not touch it himself will surely see Jannat. I appeal to the King to set up 1 day for only women so that they may with deepest respect, be able to touch the Kabba, without this non islamic behaviour from men. I know women desire as much as men to touch the kabba and stone…so why should they have to suffer? A woman cannot match a mans physical strength. Even in the Cave where the prophet pbuh received the Quran, people are throwing rubbish and even urinating around it as their are no toilets. Again..do you think by touching the walls of the cave your prayers will be answered if you do not look after her home? I was there 2 days and will try again..I saw women trampled on and squashed by men..the basic foundations of Islam .. peace love and respect for each other..have been forgotten in the very place they should be remembered. Namaste..Salaam. #makkah”

As per the source of Pinkvilla.com, “Mohit Suri wanted to know if Vivek ever feels insecure about Divyanka’s popularity. To which Vivek replied saying that he has always been asked this question and could never relate.  In fact, Vivek went to say that both he and Divyanka were mature individuals and when they met and she was already really successful at that time.”

Vivek further said he, as a husband has always felt proud and in fact, she’s been an inspiration as an actress. Divyanka too who was in awe of her husband’s response, went on to say that she’s grateful that she married a man who doesn’t bring ego issues between the two of them and it’s very rare for a guy to not feel insecure about his wife’s success and in fact encourage her to do more.

Hrithik was so impressed by Vivek’s humble behavior that he complimented him by saying that he is a man of character and it is this character that will really take him to greater heights in life.

Divyanka Tripathi and Vivek Dahiya got married last year in July.
