Tu Paas Thi…” Music Video Captures the Pain of Unfinished Love, Introduces Taniya Aacharya The upcoming music video “Tu Paas Thi…” brings a deeply emotional take on modern-day love, capturing a moment where two people meet for the last time — not because they want to part, but because life leaves them with no other choice. Directed by Deepali Meena, the project introduces Taniya Aacharya alongside actor Sunil Meena, who has earlier appeared in several television shows including StarPlus’ Anupamaa, crime dramas, and various screen projects. Unlike typical romantic narratives built on betrayal or conflict, “Tu Paas Thi…” revolves around two individuals who still love each other and wish to stay together, but are pulled apart by circumstances beyond their control. Their final meeting becomes a space filled with unspoken words, lingering emotions, and the weight of everything they cannot change. The teaser hints at a heartbreaking, intimate tone — where silence speaks louder than dialogues, and every glance carries the heaviness of a goodbye neither of them is ready to accept. It portrays love not as something that ends, but something that continues to live within memories, even after people walk separate paths. Visually, the music video adopts a cinematic yet grounded approach, with Director of Photography Siya Dynamic crafting frames that enhance the emotional depth while keeping the storytelling raw and real. Produced under Deepkraft Production and presented by Deepkraft Music, the project aims to resonate with audiences through its honest portrayal of love — where two hearts remain connected, even when life refuses to let them stay together. With its restrained storytelling and relatable emotion, “Tu Paas Thi…” stands as a reflection of those relationships that never truly end — they simply remain unfinished. The music video is scheduled to release on May 11, 2026, on the Deepkraft Productions YouTube channel.

Rajeev Khandelwal gets candid about fan adoration and his return with Tum Ho Naa Mumbai: Known for his timeless screen presence and memorable performances, from the brooding charm of Sujal Garewal to the disciplined intensity of Captain Rajveer Singh Shekhawat. Rajeev Khandelwal has been the definitive "crush" of the Indian television era for over two decades. However, even today, as he prepares to host Sony Entertainment Television’s upcoming game show ‘Tum Ho Naa – Ghar Ki Superstar’, that admiration continues to grow stronger. Rajeev shares, “It fills me with a lot of pride to see the kind of love and support I receive from my fans and audiences. But I firmly believe that what I do is my work, and every project I take on is my way of giving back to them. I’ve always felt that it’s the characters I play that people connect with and fall in love with, more than me as a person—and that’s something I truly value.” In a candid moment, Rajeev opened up about the love he receives from fans and how, at times, it turns into what he fondly calls a “fan crush” of his own. Rajeev Khandelwal shared, “At the same time, I have to admit, there are moments when I find myself smiling at how adorable fans can be. When you’re in a public space, you can’t always go up and interact the way you’d want to, but you do notice them, their excitement, their warmth, and it’s genuinely very sweet. Sometimes, you just feel like spending more time with them.” As Rajeev steps into the role of a host for Tum Ho Naa, his signature charisma is doubling the excitement across town. The show, which celebrates the "superstars" of every household, provides the perfect stage for Rajeev to interact with the very people he admires most—the everyday viewers who have made him a household name.

NIF Global Hosts Gauri Khan at Andheri Platinum Centre for Immersive Student Interaction NIF Global Mentor Gauri Khan Inspires Students at Andheri Platinum Centre with an Insightful Design Interaction NIF Global mentor and renowned interior designer Gauri Khan visited the Andheri Platinum Centre, marking her first interaction at an academic design campus. The visit brought together students from Andheri, Bandra, and Thane campuses for a focused and engaging experience that went beyond a typical guest session. Gauri Khan spent time interacting closely with students, understanding their work, and sharing her perspective on design as both a creative and professional discipline. The event was hosted in the presence of Director Vivek Gautam and Centre Head Mamta Gautam, along with Ms. Tisha Khosla from the NIF Global corporate team, who were part of the interaction and engagement throughout the session. During her visit, she toured the campus, viewed student installations and studio work, and interacted with students across different specialisations. She also reviewed selected portfolios and engaged in conversations around design thinking, execution, and the evolving expectations of the industry. The highlight of the visit was an interactive session where students had the opportunity to ask questions and gain insights into the realities of working in the design space. The session also included lighter segments that encouraged open dialogue and participation, making the interaction both informative and engaging. During this exchange, Gauri Khan emphasised that luxury today is deeply personal and rooted in comfort, while also highlighting the importance of designing with the end user in mind. She further shared that her design process always begins with understanding client requirements, with a strong inclination towards neutral palettes and timeless aesthetics that endure beyond fleeting trends. The event also recognised student achievements, including winners from Lakmé Fashion Week and top-performing students across departments, based on their overall performance and consistency. Speaking about her experience, Gauri Khan said, “It was wonderful to see the level of creativity and thought that students are bringing into their work. What stood out to me was their openness to experiment and their willingness to learn. Platforms like this are important because they give young designers the confidence to express their ideas and understand how design works in the real world.” She also appreciated the students’ work during her interaction, adding, “I think it’s so creative. It’s looking so nice, and I think you’ve put in all your hard work; it’s clearly visible. Seeing so many creative people in one room and their work, I think you’re all doing a fantastic job.” Sharing her thoughts, Mamta Gautam, Centre Head, said, “At our centre, we strongly believe that real learning comes from exposure and real-world interaction. Having Gauri Khan engage directly with our students has been a truly special moment, as it allows them to experience design beyond the classroom and builds their confidence to think and present independently.” Adding to this, Vivek Gautam, Director, said, “Our vision has always been to create an environment where students are not only trained in design but are also prepared to lead in the industry. Interactions like these bridge the gap between education and the professional world, giving students the clarity and exposure they need at the right stage of their journey.” Her visit reflected the importance of exposure and real-world interaction in design education. For many students, it was a rare opportunity to engage directly with a leading name in the industry and understand how design translates from concept to practice. The Andheri Platinum Centre continues to position itself as a space where students are not only taught design, but are encouraged to think, create, and grow through meaningful industry engagement.

Rajeev Khandelwal Recalls Rajesh Khanna’s Iconic ‘Anand’ Dialogue on Tum Ho Naa 28th April 2026, Mumbai: Rajeev Khandelwal once again proved why he stands out as a host on Tum Ho Naa, bringing depth and relatability to every conversation, as he turned a simple interaction into a meaningful reflection on life, relationships, and equality. During one of the rounds on Tum Ho Naa, Rajeev asked contestants how they would use the prize money if they won. Pooja shared that her house is currently too small, and she hopes to buy a bigger one by putting the prize money towards a down payment, along with her savings. When Rajeev inquired further, she revealed she had managed to save around 5 to 6 lakhs. Adding a light-hearted twist, Rajeev turned to her husband Kartik and asked whether handing over his entire salary meant he wasn’t good at budgeting or simply trusted his wife completely. Rajeev then humorously added, “Kyunki generally jo aadmi hote hain, unko lagta hai… ‘arre isko kya samajh mein aayega, saara yeh toh mujhe hi karna padega’.” Taking the conversation forward, Rajeev asked, “Aapko lagta hai ki yeh aapse zyada hoshiyar hai uss maamle mein.” Kartik candidly admitted that he believes his wife is indeed smarter. Rajeev further added an emotional layer, asking, “Zindagi mein aisa koi lamha aaya ho jab aapko yeh mehsoos hua ho… ‘actually Pooja, tujh sa koi nahi dooja.’ Aisa koi moment aaya life mein? Kyunki aisa bharosa raaton-raat nahi aata.” Kartik responded with a smile, summing it up simply: ‘Happy wife happy life’. The conversation then took a heartwarming turn when Rajeev asked Pooja if she had ever done something unexpected. She revealed that while working at a small company, she had saved money and surprised her husband with a scooty. Kartik shared how this thoughtful gesture changed his daily routine, as he now commutes to work on the scooty instead of taking the train. Reflecting on the conversation, Rajeev said, “aap ne abhi ye baat kahi yaha par ki chhoti zindagi hai.” He then brought in a timeless cinematic reference, asking, “aap ne Anand film dekhi hai? Uss mai ek dialogue Rajesh Khanna ji ne kaha tha, ‘Zindagi lambi nhi badi honi chahiye’.” He concluded with a powerful and inclusive thought, “ye chhoti zindagi kuch nahi hoti hai, hum sab barabar ke hai, hum sab apna kaam kar rahe hai, apna apna kitchen chalate hai.” In this heartfelt moment on Tum Ho Naa, Rajeev Khandelwal once again showcased his ability to turn everyday conversations into meaningful life lessons, leaving the audience with a simple yet powerful reminder about trust, equality, and truly valuing the life we live. Watch Tum Ho Naa, hosted by Rajeev Khandelwal, starting from 28th April, at 9:00 pm only on Sony Entertainment Television & Sony LIV.
