Despite meeting Pankaj "years ago," she said that they continued to communicate "over texts on and off."She walked down memory lane, remembering their interactions on the Mahabharat film sets. After Nitish Bharadwaj, Pankaj Dheer was the most attractive male on the set. I would text him and refer to him as "my most handsome friend." 'Handsome' was a term he was aware of. However, he is a really polite, well-mannered man. Firoz Khan, who portrayed Arjun, and Puneet Issar, who played Duryodhan, were a little mischievous (chulbule). However, Pankaj was always quiet," she remarked.Pankaj was well-known for his roles as King Shivdutt in the fantasy drama Chandrakanta and Karna in BR Chopra's Mahabharat. "He died this morning from cancer." Producer Ashoke Pandit was quoted by PTI as stating, "He had been in and out of the hospital in the past months."

He wasted a lot of time working on his music (guttss toh dekho) and pursuing a "rockstar" career; if he had been truly serious about making Jee Le Zaraa, he would have worked harder to resolve the scheduling dispute and set up "the dates."

Since my character has a relatability quality that anybody can identify with, particularly when it comes to their teenage years, I can say that I have personally experienced many of the same confusions, problems, and tensions that Aadhya Mathur has.

Mammootty’s miraculous run continues with the bleakest Indian horror film in years, a take-no-prisoners tirade against humanity
Scene After Credits: Women are essentially wiped out of the universe, and men are destined to wage never-ending battles with one another. Evil doesn't go away. This is how Mammootty's Bramayugam ends—hopelessly. Director Rahul Sadasivan's Bramayugam is a cunningly deceitful picture that seeks to undermine every issue it covers, including gender, caste, and horror movie clichés. It's possibly the most nihilistic mainstream Indian film in recent memory. Even Sandeep Reddy Vanga, who frequently aspires to be the most uncomfortable person in the room, would recoil at the idea of portraying a world this dismal; nonetheless, it should be noted that at least one Bramayugam subplot is strikingly similar to Animal's main revenge narrative. Surprisingly, the remainder of it reworks the standard issue uprising pattern, which is so prevalent in South Indian films, into something that A24 would gladly buy and promote to the letter. Mammootty, the legendary star of Malayalam film who is currently inhabiting a realm solely occupied by Denzel Washington, plays a man who seems to be rotting in real time in Brayamayugam. This man, Kodumon Potti, was first shown to us as an upper-caste landowner in Kerala in the 17th century, but it was later discovered that he was actually a shape-shifting "goblin" in human form.In the midst of a forest, Kodumon lives alone in a dilapidated mansion, but he is assisted by a servant that resembles Igor. This man exhales spittle and sarcasm in equal measure. His duties include cooking for his "master" and disposing of dead bodies on his behalf. One day, a strange stranger by the name of Thevan appears at their door, trying to flee the slave dealers he has just fled from and in need of food. Thevan is shocked by Kodumon's kindness, which he takes to be sincere but which we, the audience, see right away as staged. In spite of having informed Kodumon that he is a member of a lower caste, he is given the opportunity to dine and stay. A sense of impending catastrophe grows. Kodumon, with an evil smile and a spooky laugh, asserts that a person's social status can be altered by their "karma" rather than being only determined by their place of birth. He claims that all he needs in return for Thevan's hospitality is for Thevan to act as his personal iPod and perform tunes for him whenever he asks. To him, it seems like a terrific deal. However, he finds out very quickly that the mansion is full of secrets, the most terrifying of which may be related to the noises coming from the attic, such as clamoring and clanging.
The actor who aspired to become Marlon Brando but ended up being Mammootty instead: An exploration of Bramayugam star’s grey roles
Shah Rukh Khan's concerns are disproved by Mammootty's portrayals of gray characters, such as the one in Rahul Sadasivan's Bramayugam, which show that any actor may take on such morally repugnant roles without making them endearing. Remember the time Shah Rukh Khan said in an interview that he was hesitant to play any morally repugnant characters? SRK clarified that he was afraid he would unintentionally make these characters seem endearing and likable, which he thought was inappropriate because they shouldn't be exalted or admired. He is accurate. Even the most heinous characters, such as Rahul Mehra in Darr (1993), Ajay/Vicky in Baazigar (1993), Vijay Agnihotri in Anjaam (1994), the title character in the Don flicks (2006 and 2011), and Gaurav Chandna in Fan (2016), look like they belong to him. attractive. His choice to abstain from such positions in order to stop their exaltation is therefore reasonable. However, this begs a crucial question: should this be referred to be SRK's strength or weakness? An actor's primary vulnerability, which can result in typecasting, arises when they are skilled at playing characters who express emotions that they are familiar with or when they find it difficult to accept roles that are outside of their comfort zone. Even if an actor isn't naturally gifted in a variety of roles, practice is the key to getting better. Mammootty, the Malayalam megastar, is a prime example of this, as her career shows that acting skills can be developed by a committed pursuit of the acting vocation. In contrast to his contemporaries Mohanlal, who captured hearts with his very first film, Mammootty didn't initially seem like a promising star. Unless he was working on movies with great directors, he frequently gave mediocre performances. Nevertheless, Mammootty persisted in trying despite suffering a string of failures and seeing his friends succeed before him. He was not an actor by chance; rather, he was here to stay. Three National Film Awards for Best Actor and fifty-two years later, Mammootty is still regarded as one of the most promising performers in Malayalam film. His portrayals of gray characters, in fact, refute SRK's concerns by showing that any actor may take on these kinds of roles without making them seem particularly desirable. Mammootty, who is regarded as the pinnacle of Malayali attractiveness and masculinity, has played some of the most heinous antagonists throughout the years, yet he never radiated charm, preventing adulation. Rahul Sadasivan's Bramayugam is the most recent example. Mammootty has constantly excelled at playing antagonist characters and complex parts with heavy shades of grey. He does this with extreme accuracy, pulling out the darkest, deepest aspects of the characters and smearing them all over his face, leaving no trace of his true self apparent.

Sushmita Sen On Her Ignorance Of Table etiquette During The Miss Universe Dinner
Sushmita Sen is known for being open and honest about both her personal and professional struggles. The actress now admitted that she didn't attend a Miss Universe dinner because she didn't know how to use table manners in an interview with Curly Tales. 29 years ago (1994), Sushmita made history as the first Indian to win the Miss Universe title. "I didn't learn table manners before winning Miss Universe," the actress stated. They sent me to Mexico City after I won it. At eighteen, I can hardly speak English. At that moment, I'm just trying to get things together, and Barbara, my travel manager, is seated to my right. After Barbara, there are all men. I'm so hungry that I'm grinning and telling my travel manager, "I'm very hungry." Then I stoop down and say, I'm starving, Barbara. "So are they, and since you're the main guest, you should get started," she says."I felt very out of place, and I don't want to feel that again," Sushmita Sen continued. "Pet bhar ke kha ke jaao ghar se, taki waha pe jaake khana khane ki utsukta nahi hogi" is one of the lessons I learned. It means to eat well at home and then go to an official dinner to avoid feeling the need to eat there. Then you can politely decline, "No more, please," and they'll think you're on a strict diet.Sushmita Sen has never held back when discussing her career path in the business. In a previous interview with the late actor Farooq Shaikh on the talk show Jeena Isi Ka Naam Hai on NDTV, the actress revealed that she couldn't afford to buy four different designer outfits for the Miss India finale, so she had her winning gown sewed by a local tailor."Itne paise nahi the ki hum designer kapde pehen ke stage par jaye," the actress said. The chahiye costumes are char. Our financial situation prevented us from purchasing designer clothing, even though we are middle class. Four costumes were required. Being middle-class, we were aware of our limitations.""So what?" Sushmita Sen continued, "Mum ne kaha? Tumhe dekhne arhe hai, log dekhne thodi arhe hai. We went to the Sarojini Nagar market, a flea market in New Delhi, and bought some stuff. Ah, garage mein, ek petticoat wala aadmi tha, unko jaakar thama dia aur kaha, 'Dekho bhaiya, TV pe aane wala hai, accha banana.' New khareed ke kaat ke, usmein elastic daal ke gloves pehne the maine, mummy ne bache hue fabric ko mod k ek rose bnaya aur fir kala socks. Unhone uss fabric ke sath mera winning gown tyaar kia. [My mother exclaimed, 'Whatever?Rather than focusing on your attire, they will observe you instead. Therefore, we purchased a piece of cloth from the Sarojini Nagar market. There was a local tailor who made petticoats downstairs in the garage. We told him, "This will come on TV, make a good dress," and gave him the material. From that fabric, he made my winning gown, and my mother used the leftover fabric to make a rose. I wore our brand-new, black socks as gloves after we cut and added elastic."
