Opening up about his own journey, he shared, “Aur mujhe aisa lagta hai ki jab mujhe samajh mein aaya ki main bhi kaafi positive insaan hoon, mujhe bhi bahut jaldi gussa nahi aata.” He further reflected on how this realization came with time and experience, adding, “Par ussi gusse se jab… mera toh kaafi late shuru hua jab mujhe zindagi mein realise hua ki gussa nahi karna chahiye. Thoda positive raho, duniya ko aap jeetna chahte ho toh positive hokar hi jeet sakte ho.” Continuing the conversation, Rajeev asked Rekha what keeps her grounded and positive despite life’s challenges.

“Meri wife itna pareshan hai mujhse,” Says Rajeev Khandelwal as He Shares His Organic Beauty Routine 13th May 2026, Mumbai: In a surprising and refreshingly candid moment on Tum Ho Naa – Ghar Ki Superstar, host Rajeev Khandelwal offered a glimpse into his personal lifestyle, revealing his inclination towards organic living and natural self-care. While introducing contestant Hema, Rajeev began on a light note, complimenting her beauty and humorously pointing out how men often complain about their wives spending too much time on makeup. What followed, however, turned into an unexpected revelation, as Rajeev drew a parallel between his own choices and Hema’s approach to beauty. Highlighting their shared mindset, he said, _“Mera aur inka taste bahut milta hai, bahut similar hai. Main bhi organic mein bahut believe karta hoon.” Taking it a step further, he acknowledged Hema’s dedication, adding, “Par aap toh mere se ek kadam aage hain, aap toh apne beauty products bhi organic banate hain, aur khud ghar mein banate hain.”_ As Hema spoke about consciously choosing organic products due to the chemicals in commercial alternatives and her commitment to Ayurveda, Rajeev responded with a personal insight that caught everyone’s attention. Opening up about his own routine, Rajeev shared, _“Aapko bataun, main bhi bahut achhe raaste pe hoon. Mere bhi na jo ghar mein cheezein hain, mere apne beauty products, woh sab ke sab na aise hi hain—multani mitti hai, kheera khata hoon toh chehre pe laga deta hoon, tamatar khata hoon toh chehre pe laga deta hoon.”_ Adding a touch of humour to the revelation, he quipped, _“Meri wife itna pareshan hai mujhse.”_ But beyond the banter, Rajeev’s words carried a deeper reflection on his evolving mindset. Emphasizing the emotional connection with natural living, he said, _“Toh ye hi hai ki mujhe lagta hai ki bahut si organic cheezon se…. ab pata nahi usse mere skin pe kitna farak pada ya nahi pada, lekin at least mere mann ko bahut accha lagta hai, dil ko bahut accha lagta hai ki aap natural cheezon se apne aap ko sanwaar rahe hain, saja rahe ho.”_ Later in the episode, the moment took a delightful turn when Hema presented Rajeev with a thoughtfully curated hamper of herbal products. Clearly pleased with the gesture, Rajeev expressed his excitement with his signature charm, saying, _“I am telling you, sirf main nahi use karunga, apni wife se bhi use karunga. Main hamesha bolta hoon, agar mujhe kuch gift dena hai toh, ya toh apne garden se sabzi de do. Yeh main hint nahi de raha hoon….”-_ making it yet another memorable moment that highlighted his genuine love for organic living. This candid exchange not only showcased a lesser-known side of Rajeev Khandelwal but also positioned him as someone who values simplicity, mindfulness, and conscious living. What began as a casual introduction soon turned into a standout moment, one that resonated with viewers and highlighted a refreshing take on beauty and self care. *Watch Tum Ho Naa – Ghar Ki Superstar, Monday to Friday at 9 PM only on Sony Entertainment Television & Sony LIV.*

Abhishek Singh Rajput Bags Primary Role as 'Aadi' in Upcoming Comedy Movie "Jeena Dil Se" Mumbai, 13th May 2026 – Abhishek Singh Rajput, a versatile actor hailing from Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, is set to make a massive impact in the crucial, primary role of 'Aadi' in the upcoming spectacular theatrical comedy Jeena Dil Se. As director Adhish Rana’s highly anticipated film gears up for its big-screen release on May 29, 2026, the spotlight is firmly on Rajput's character – a funny, jolly, travel-loving, Casanova tour guide who serves as the heart and driving comedic force of the movie. For Rajput, landing such an important role wasn't just about acting; it was about bringing his own authentic self to the big screen. When the script first reached him for auditions, the connection was instant. Aadi’s naturally friendly, helpful, and adventurous spirit mirrored Rajput’s real-life personality so closely that the casting felt destined. "I love connecting with new people, and I naturally gravitate towards humor and taking care of those around me," shares Abhishek Singh Rajput. "Because the character is so relatable to who I am off camera, the audition process flowed effortlessly. Playing Aadi has been an absolute joy, and I poured a lot of my own soul into bringing this primary character to life." Relocating from his roots in Bhopal to the highly competitive landscape of Mumbai six years ago, Rajput’s journey has been one of pure grit. Like many outsiders, he navigated the grueling hustle, countless auditions, and inevitable struggles of the "City of Dreams" to carve out his space. Through it all, his family remained his biggest pillar of strength. "My parents have played a major role in shaping who I am today," he shares, crediting them for his resilience. He spent these years quietly honing his craft and paying his dues, making his prominent role in Jeena Dil Se feel like a well-deserved, massive breakthrough. Along the way, he has consistently proven his range. He was last seen in the gripping series Swipe Crime on Amazon MX Player - an intense project he notably described as "a mirror to modern relationships." Shifting gears effortlessly from a gritty digital drama to an out-and-out big-screen comedy highlights his remarkable versatility. While his ability to blend into diverse narratives has made him a highly reliable performer for years, Jeena Dil Se marks the pivotal shift where he rightfully takes center stage. Driven by a pure love for the craft of acting, Rajput is using this film as a major stepping stone to establish a stronger, undeniable presence in the industry. His primary goal is to reach wider audiences and prove his mettle as a leading talent in cinema. Looking ahead, the actor is actively seeking dynamic and challenging opportunities across both feature films and the rapidly expanding web series space. "I am incredibly hungry for good work," Rajput adds. "I want to take on diverse, primary roles that challenge me. While I have a special place in my heart for relatable, funny characters with emotional depth, I want to do as much varied work as I can. I am looking forward to pushing my boundaries as an actor." With Jeena Dil Se hitting theaters on May 29th, the early industry buzz suggests that Aadi will be a memorable takeaway for moviegoers. Audiences and industry insiders alike are ready to experience the charm, wit, and infectious energy of Abhishek Singh Rajput in this highly important role.

A harsh classroom label once tried to define him — but Raghav Sachar turned it into fuel* Mumbai, 11th May: The latest episode of the Dreamers Storytelling Series by Sudhanshu Rai traces the musician’s remarkable journey from a curious three-year-old to a celebrated multi-instrumentalist. The story kicks off with a moment straight out of a film — a toddler effortlessly recreating a tune on the harmonica after watching his father play, leaving everyone stunned. But the road ahead wasn’t as melodic. Struggling in academics and cut off from music at boarding school, Sachar faced emotional lows, even walking out of a hospital after an altercation — driven purely by his need to return to music. The challenges didn’t stop there. A teacher’s cutting remark calling him a “disgrace” could have ended the dream, but instead, it strengthened his resolve. Reflecting on this journey, Sudhanshu Rai shares, "What struck me most about Raghav’s journey wasn’t just the brilliance of a child prodigy, but the quiet resilience of a young boy who chose instinct over approval. At an age when most of us are taught to conform, he was already questioning that path—holding on to something he deeply believed in. With ‘Dreamers’, the intention has always been to bring forward these unseen, deeply personal turning points-because often, it’s the doubt, the resistance, and the voices that challenge you that ultimately lead you to discover your own." Backed by his parents, Sachar pursued formal training at Monash University, juggling financial struggles by taking up advertising gigs. His breakthrough moment came when industry heavyweights like Sunidhi Chauhan, Kailash Kher, and Kunal Ganjawala lent their voices to his debut album — without charging a fee. Recalling one of the most defining moments, Raghav Sachar says,"I was too young to process what being called a ‘disgrace’ really meant, but I remember the feeling it left behind—it stayed with me. For a long time, I found it difficult to fit into spaces that expected me to be a certain way, academically or otherwise. Music became my escape, but more than that, it became my identity—it was the only place where I didn’t feel judged or measured. Looking back, I realise those moments of doubt, isolation, even rebellion, were necessary. They pushed me closer to what felt natural to me. I didn’t choose music as a career—it felt like the only honest way to exist." A defining career leap followed when filmmaker Yash Chopra spotted his talent, paving the way for his debut as a music director in Kabul Express. Sachar also went on to leave his mark as an instrumentalist in films like Salaam Namaste, Parineeta, Dhoom, and Hum Tum. Today, he’s not just a musician but an innovator — running his own label, experimenting with new instruments, and exploring music as therapy. From being dismissed in a classroom to commanding respect in the industry, Sachar’s story hits the right note on resilience — and proves that sometimes, the loudest critics create the strongest comebacks.
