Chunky Panday’s Wife Reveals How Relatives At Her Engagement Party Was Starstruck Seeing Bollywood Stars ( Photo Credit – Instagram )

Actor Chunky Panday’s wife, Bhavana Panday, has been enjoying newly found fame since Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives landed on-air. Bhavana, a fashion designer, does not come from the Hindi film industry and was a native of Delhi before she married Chunky Panday.

The duo got hitched in 1998, and before their wedding, Bhavana and Chunky had a grand engagement in Delhi. Several Bollywood celebrities attended the event. Seeing Bollywood stars at weddings those days, especially in Delhi, was uncommon. Therefore, the guests at Bhavana’s engagement were stunned when they saw A-listers like Salman Khan and Rekha at the bash.

In a recent conversation with Mid-Day, Bhavana Panday recalled that her sisters and other guests were so starstruck seeing Salman and Rekha in person, their reactions left her utterly embarrassed.

“Ctrl” is “Black Mirror” crossed with “Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.” That is the obligatory single-line take, which would be paraded around as an opinion of the movie rather than what it actually is—a pitch. I suppose with regards to how deep or volatile an exploration could be regarding social media usage as well as the proliferation of the internet within one’s life, it depends on which aspects of that idea screenwriters Motwane and Avinash Sampath would like to focus all their creative energies upon.

That decision alone would also entail casting the protagonist—Anaya Panday, who has now carved out a niche for herself due to the characters modeled around her personality, with a few degrees removed from herself. It could be criticized, except Panday is genuinely good at it. In an interview while promoting the film, Motwane would remark how the idea of casting Panday...

Ananya Panday couldn’t put down the script for “Call Me Bae” — literally. “I finished reading all eight episodes in one night because I couldn’t stop,” the Bollywood star told Variety about her new Prime Video series.

Written by Ishita Moitra, Samina Motlekar and Rohit Nair, “Call Me Bae” tells the story of Bae, a young woman who is downsized from heiress to hustler after a scandal. She learns that her most valuable assets are not her diamonds, but her street smarts and her style. Broke, but refusing to be broken, she navigates the newsrooms of Mumbai, finding beaus, sisterhood and her better self. Karan Johar, Apoorva Mehta and Somen Mishra, as executive producers for their Dharmatic Entertainment, give a glitzy pedigree to the Hindi-language series.

Directed by Collin D’Cunha, the script struck a chord with Panday from the start. “For me as an actor, the biggest telling sign...

Siddhant Chaturvedi recently expressed his support for Ananya Panday’s digital debut with the series Call Me Bae. The trailer for the show, which was released to much enthusiasm, has a playful nod to a memorable moment from a 2020 roundtable interview involving both Siddhant and Ananya. In the interview, Ananya spoke about the struggles of being in the film industry, to which Siddhant famously responded, “The difference is jahaan humare sapne poore hote hain, wahi inka struggle shuru hota hai.” This comment became a viral sensation and has now been referenced in the Call Me Bae trailer.

Directed by Collin D’Cunha and created by Ishita Moitra, Call Me Bae follows the journey of a billionaire fashionista, Bae, who must navigate life after being disowned by her family. The series is produced by Karan Johar’s Dharmatic Entertainment and is set to premiere on Prime Video on September 6.

“‘Bechaini’ evokes the feeling of childhood love, and the innocence that comes with it. It’s produced in a very modern electronica way, which contrasts the nostalgic flavour of the melody and lyric,” he added.

Mumbai, Nov 9 (Ians) Actress Ananya Panday, who appeared on the third episode of the popular chat show ‘Koffee With Karan’ along with Sara Ali Khan, addressed the nepotism debate as at one point she found herself at the centre of it.

This coupled with actor Siddhant Chaturvedi’s comments about the starting line being different for insiders and outsiders during the same roundtable led to a barrage of criticism for Ananya and even more, countless memes around her.

Bollywood actress Ananya Panday, who is known for films like ‘Student of the Year 2’, ‘Gehraiyaan’ and ‘Liger’, recently completed filming for her upcoming untitled thriller movie. The film has been directed by acclaimed filmmaker Vikramaditya Motwane of ‘Sacred Games’, ‘Udaan’ and ‘Lootera’ fame.

Motwane said that he is a fan and a friend of the actress as the two wrapped up the film produced by Nikhil Dwivedi.

Ananya took to social media to share the news with her fans and followers.

She posted a picture and expressed her gratitude for the opportunity.

Ananya said: “And that’s a wrap! @motwayne I can never thank you enough but I hope I made you and continue to make you happy and proud and to every single member of this team who has given everything they have to this magical film — I love you guys and I can’t wait for the world to see it.

Their music is like a whiff of fresh air in the Bollywood music scene. Composer duo Oaff and Savera, who gained the spotlight with their tracks from the film ‘Gehraiyaan’, are unstoppable when it comes to creativity.

The two, who made their first performance on stage at the Vh1 Supersonic on Friday, have spoken about how Bollywood and social media helping artistes to come to the forefront present their best and reach out directly to fans.

Be it ‘Beqaboo’, ‘Doobey’ or the title track of ‘Gehraiyaan’, Oaff and Savera have made it big on the music front.

Do they agree with the fact that Bollywood helps independent artists to come to the forefront?

Savera said: “Yes, now more than ever specially a lot of new directors, production houses and just people are growing in general and realising that it’s good to entertain different kinds of musicians, singers and composers from the genre table.

Pune, Feb 24 (Ians) Fans in thousands swarmed the main stage at Vh1 Supersonic as music composers Oaf-Savera enthralled music lovers with their performance along with a surprise rap session with Bollywood heartthrob Siddhant Chaturvedi here on Friday night.

The performance of Oaf, whose real name is Kabeer Kathpalia and Savera Mehta was ultra special as this was the first time they were seen performing on stage.

“It was heartwarming and there were so many people singing our song back to us it was a great feeling to connect with people so directly,” Oaf told Ians after the performance.

The duo add depth with their blockbuster hits from the film “Gehraiyaan” starring Siddhant, Deepika Padukone and Ananya Pandey.

They started with “Tu Kahaan”, “Beqaboo”, “Gehraiyaan” title track and ended with a bang with “Doobey” among many others.

Right before Siddhant made an entry on stage, Oaf said that he has a special surprise for the fans.

Actor Trishaan Maini is thrilled about making his debut on the small screen with the show ‘Bohot Pyaar Karte Hai’ and credits his accomplishment to Ganpati. He said: “As an actor doing TV was in my mind the time I started my career. I feel this medium has got a really big reach. Though the youth enjoys watching digital platforms, TV is entertaining every age group.”

“I’m really thrilled about making my debut on TV with a beautiful team and renowned producer Sandip (Sikcand) sir. There is so much I can learn from him. I feel all those opportunities I’m enjoying today could become only possible with the blessings of my bappa.”

Talking about his role in the show, he added: “I’m playing Vivek, who happens to be Indu’s (lead actress Sayli Salunkhe) best friend. He is along with her in every up and down and is very supportive.

During their film promotion in the Capital, both Vijay Deverakonda and Ananya Panday shared some BTS moments. Praising the “Student of the Year 2” actress, Vijay said, “She is hard-working and dedicated to cinema. Moreover, she is quite imaginative like a kid and at certain times her imagination can be big. And at times, it can lead her to be funny.”

Ananya has played different kinds of roles in movies such as “Student of the Year 2”, “Khaali Peeli”, and “Gehraiyaan”.

Though some of her films failed at the box office, there are a lot of hopes that she has from “Liger”. Moreover, she wanted to be part of a commercial film like this and thus getting an opportunity to be part of it made her happy.

Ananya said: “I try to give my best in most of the films but whether it works at the box office or not is something in my hand.

CinemaWith two top women stars — Nayanthara and Samantha — headlining 'Kaathuvaakula Rendu Kadhal', it remains to be seen if the film will overturn cinematic traditions when it comes to adultery.Sowmya RajendranHindi film Gehraiyaan, directed by Shakun Batra and starring Deepika Padukone, Siddhant Chaturvedi, Ananya Panday and Dhairya Karwa, came out in February this year on Amazon Prime Video, sparking several conversations on extramarital affairs, morality, mental health and so on. While the film received its fair share of brickbats, it was appreciated by a section of the audience for its non-judgmental treatment of the extramarital affair on screen, particularly since it involves the woman lead committing adultery. Malayalam film Kaanekkaane, directed by Manu Ashokan, which streamed directly on SonyLiv in September last year, is about a man who leaves his wife to die in a road accident in order to carry on with his extramarital affair.

If that wasn’t messy enough, Alisha also has a perfectly nice boyfriend of six years, Karan (Dhairya Karwa), who’s done nothing to deserve this betrayal.

“She feels stuck,” is how Padukone explains her behaviour. A 30-year-old yoga teacher in Mumbai, Alisha seems like an otherwise likable and pleasant human being,...
