Seerat
Kapoor aka Savi from Gharwali Pedwali shares, “My bag is my little
comfort zone when I am constantly on the move. I always carry my headphones
because music helps me stay centred between hectic shoots. A hydrating face
mist and lip balm are absolute must-haves to keep me feeling fresh all day. I
also keep a small journal with me it is where I jot down thoughts, ideas, or
even little moments from the day that inspire me. And I never step out without
a tiny good-luck charm tucked inside; it is something personal that keeps me
grounded no matter where I am.” Vidisha Srivastava aka Anita Bhabi from

I might need through a busy day on set. I always carry a compact mirror and a
couple of makeup essentials just enough for those in-between touch-ups. A small
perfume is a must because I love feeling fresh and confident at all times. I
also keep some healthy snacks, usually nuts or a protein bar, to keep my energy
levels up during long shoots. And one thing you will always find in my bag is a
scrunchie it is simple, but honestly a lifesaver on hectic days when you just
want to tie your hair up and get going!”

Prankster Nikhil’s Bushman Act Leaves Akshay Kumar and Audience in Splits on Wheel of Fortune
16th April 2026, Mumbai: On Wheel of Fortune, a fun-filled moment unfolded as contestant Nikhil brought his journey as a prank content creator to the stage.
While interacting with host Akshay Kumar and fellow contestants Akshay and Purva, Nikhil shared how he started doing pranks from a young age and eventually turned it into content creation. He spoke about introducing bushman-style pranks in India and gaining rapid popularity, reaching 100K followers in just 45 days.
When asked if he had ever faced trouble while pranking, Nikhil recalled an incident from Powai. Dressed as a bushman, he was hiding behind a bush to scare a passerby when a dog suddenly approached him and lifted its leg nearby. The unexpected moment left everyone amused. As he continued with the prank and revealed himself, both the dog and the passerby ran away, turning the entire situation into a burst of laughter for the audience and Akshay Kumar.
Reacting to the story, Akshay Kumar shared his perspective on pranking, saying, “This is just to make people laugh. I think we should all be very supportive and try to understand what this man is trying to do. Jab tak aap ye prank se kisi ko physically hurt nahi kar rahe, kisi ko emotionally hurt nahi kar rahe, tab tak theek hai. Agar kisi ko lage, toh I think you should say sorry.”
With this thoughtful take, Akshay Kumar struck a perfect balance between entertainment and responsibility. His words highlighted the importance of being mindful while creating content, reinforcing that humour should never come at the cost of someone’s well-being. The segment combined humour with a thoughtful message, highlighting both the lighter and responsible side of pranking.

Sa Re Ga Ma Pa fame Abhijeet Ghoshal announces Shiv Tandav Club Mix, says 'I wanted a version people stay with till the end'
As devotional music evolves with changing listener habits, younger audiences are seeking formats that feel more immediate, energetic and immersive—where faith is not just heard, but felt. On the occasion of Masik Shivratri, Sa Re Ga Ma Pa fame Abhijeet Ghoshal announces his latest track, Shiv Tandav Club Mix, a powerful, high-energy reimagining of the Shiv Tandav Stotra.
Interestingly, the roots of this composition go back to his school days. “I first worked on a version of Shiv Tandav when I was in Class 11. It stayed with me over the years, and I released that a few years back” he shares. “This new Clubmix version is a continuation of that journey, but with a sound that reflects who I am today.”
The idea, he says, came from observing how audiences engage with devotional music today. “In many shows, I noticed people only sing the first few lines and then lose that connection. I kept asking myself—why can’t we create something that people stay with till the end, something they can hum, relate to and truly be a part of?” He adds, “This isn’t just a remix, it’s a way to help people feel devotion fully.”
Blending fast-paced beats, layered chorus sections of Har Har Mahadev, and contemporary production, the track is designed to be both intense and accessible. “Shiv Tandav is already filled with energy,” Ghoshal explains. “I just wanted to present that energy in a way today’s listeners can instantly connect with. Not change it, just bring it closer to them.”
Building on the strong response to his earlier Club Mix Hanuman Chalisa, which resonated with young listeners for its fresh, high-energy take on a traditional chant, Ghoshal continues to shape a distinct space in modern devotional music. He believes “When music makes you feel something strongly, that’s when the connection happens. Devotion doesn’t have to be still. It can move with you, grow with you and become a part of your everyday rhythm.”

Saiyaara Team Reunites: Mohit Suri, Akshaye Widhani, Ahaan Panday & Aneet Padda return for an intense romance laced with heart-tugging music!
YRF copy.jpeg
The Saiyaara team is back! After the phenomenal success of Saiyaara, that became the all-time highest grossing love story in the history of Indian cinema, the celebrated team of director Mohit Suri, producer Akshaye Widhani (CEO of Yash Raj Films) and breakout Gen Z stars Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda are set to reunite for an intense romance! The untitled film promises a cinematic experience that blends heartfelt storytelling with unforgettable melodies.
Released to unprecedented acclaim and audience love, YRF’s Saiyaara emerged as one of the defining musical blockbusters of its time. It collected a staggering 338 crore nett in India & about 580 crore gross worldwide — an extraordinary achievement for a romantic musical with absolute newcomers. Its soul-stirring soundtrack dominated streaming charts for months, even after its release, further reinforcing the film’s pop cultural impact in India and worldwide, especially amongst the youth of today.
Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, the Saiyaara pair became sweethearts of Gen Z! Ahneet, as their fans lovingly call them, are set to return with this film, bringing with them the infectious charm, authenticity in acting & scintillating chemistry that made their performances in Saiyaara so memorable.
Mohit Suri says, “It’s always been love stories for me … overwhelming — when emotions are so unbound , self-consuming and become impossible to ignore. Love is supposed to be felt intensely and that’s why I naturally gravitate towards this as a storyteller. The film explores this unabashedly... so coming back with the same team from Saiyaara feels incredibly special, maybe it was always written in the stars. Reuniting … coming back home .. but with a renewed creative hunger. This time I feel like a newcomer... excited, anxious about this story and I hope my music will again touch people like I have always strived for through my films.”
Akshaye Widhani says, “Mohit and our collaboration is built on a shared creative pulse and an ambition to tell stories that touch the hearts of people. With Mohit, it’s never just about making a film — it’s about chasing a feeling, a piece of music, a moment that lingers long after the screen fades to black. Saiyaara was one such moment that we will cherish forever. As we come together again, we’re searching for something even more honest, more vulnerable and more enduring with our second collaboration. We are thrilled to have Ahaan & Aneet in our film as the most-loved Gen Z pair reunite for a Mohit Suri romance.”
The Ahaan-Aneet starrer YRF film is set to go on floors later this year and will be eyeing a 2027 theatrical release worldwide.
