Meet Actress Who Got Just Rs 1000 Hike On Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, Was The Most Underpaid Actor, Shaved Her Head In Lockdown...Her Name Is
The actress spoke at length about her journey on Siddharth Kannan's podcast on YouTube. During the conversation, she looked back at her experience of working on Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi. She played Payal Mehra – Mihir's ex-fiancée on the show. Jaya said, 'I was the most underpaid actor. I never got a raise. Only once I asked for a raise, and while everyone got a raise of 2 thousand rupees, I got only 1 thousand. That hit my ego, so I didn't ask for it ever again and hence didn't get a raise for a straight 7 years.'
Siddharth asked if other castmates got a raise in those seven years. To which. Jaya said, 'Ohhh yes… woh log toh kahan se kahan paunch gaye." Whether she will be returning for the upcoming reboot of the show or not, is not confirmed.

One Thousand Miles: Yo Yo Honey Singh drops music video; fans get nostalgic, ‘Bachpana ki yaadein'
Yo Yo Honey Singh has dropped a new music video, One Thousand Miles. This comes a day after the rapper getting into legal trouble over his song, Millionaire. Yo Yo Honey Singh posted the video link on Instagram in collaboration with T-Series. On YouTube, the music label posted, 'The Wait is Over! Presenting the Offical Video Song "One Thousand Miles" from the Album Desi Kalakaar by Yo Yo Honey Singh.' The new track stars Honey Singh and actress Mandy Takhar. Singh wrote the lyrics with Lil Golu and composed the music himself. The music video is directed by Mihir Gulati. The song originally came out in 2014. Fans waited 11 years for the video, which features Honey Singh driving a Lamborghini to meet his love interest, played by Mandy Takhar. The video has received a warm response for its nostalgic vibe and stylish visuals, quickly garnering nearly 2 million views within the first 5 hours of its release. A YouTube user said they had stopped listening to Yo Yo Honey Singh but couldn't resist this song as it was their college-time favourite. They recalled how it helped them through B Tech, especially during long bus rides with earphones in. 'Bro made me feel nostalgic. I remembered those days again when I used to plug in my earphones, get on the college bus, and during that 50km ride to and from college, I'd listen to the whole album,' the user wrote. 'This was my favourite from the album. We used to play it while driving cars in GTA San Andreas. What nostalgia,' exclaimed another user. Another commented, 'Bachpana ki yaadein thi kash jabhi video aata toh aaj tk dekhne m maza aata (It was a memory from childhood. Wish the video had come out back then, it would've been fun to watch even today).' The Punjab Women's Commission took action against Yo Yo Honey Singh and Karan Aujla for allegedly using disrespectful words in their songs Millionaire and MF Gabru. The commission said the lyrics were abusive towards women and gave a wrong message to society. 'Everyone has listened to the song and objected, but it still gets millions of views. It's not just the Women's Commission's responsibility to notice this; listeners and society also must reject such language,' ANI quoted PWC chairperson Raj Lali Gill as saying. 'In the songs, the singer neither controls their language nor considers respecting mothers. They do this to make money,' Gill added.

Archana Puran Singh warns son Aaryaman to ‘watch it' as his girlfriend Yogita says she's critical, he replies he's still '10/10 for her'
Archana Puran Singh is back with another vlog with AAAP Ka Parivaar on YouTube, and this time there is a new addition to the family. The actor's son Aaryamann Sethi's girlfriend, actor Yogita Bihani, also joined them on the biryani hunt in Mumbai. In their latest vlog, the family teased him for his 'true love'. While visiting different biryani restaurants, they also explored Salman Khan's family's favourite biryani outlet and choices. During the beginning of the video, Aaryamann specifically introduced his girlfriend Yogita Bihani as 'our very own Madhubala'. Ayushmaan said, 'You are mentioning her separately as if they have not seen her. True love, true love.' 'Aaj hum Biryani challenge karahe hain with Yogita Bihani. Biryani with Bihani!' Archana added. After trying the biryani at the first restaurant Persian Darbaar, Yogita gave an average rating to the food, stating that she is a bit critical, while the other family members give it a solid 8 and 9/10. 'Aary, watch it, she is saying herself,' Archana joked. 'I am still 10/10 for her,' he said, as his mother replied, 'Aaye haaye, naya naya ishq!' They then visited Lucky restaurant, which had an Iranian style of making their biryani. After trying their flavourful food and 'A-class' desserts, they rated it lower than Persian Darbaar. The last one to visit was the famous Jaffer Bhai's Delhi Darbar, which is also a celebrity favourite for Mughlai Biryani. The manager revealed that they deliver biryani to Salman Khan's mother Helen. 'Vo zyadatar pasand karte hain white biryani aur khichda. Whenever it's Arpita (Salman's sister Arpita Khan Sharma) madam's birthday or any other occasion, our food is delivered at their parties. Yusuf Khan sahab, Dilip Kumar sahab, aap log gaye honge, jitna bhi khaana hota hai, mera hi hota hai (We deliver food at their parties),' he shared. White Biryani is their speciality, which is prepared purely using desi ghee and has a strong aroma with flavours. Towards the end of the vlog, all of them chose Persian Darbaar as the best one, mentioning that each one had its own flavour profile.

In Aary's latest vlog, she said, 'There was this mother-daughter duo who curiously asked me, 'Are you Yogita?' I was like, 'Yeah… hi…' Then they said, 'We saw you in Aary Vlogs.' Her mother was also like, 'She is the same girl, right?' Then they clicked pictures with me. They told me, 'You two please continue to make vlogs, you look too good together.' I even told them, 'Actually, Aary was going to come here but because my flight landed early, he hasn't arrived yet.' They looked disappointed to have missed him.' 'Ten minutes after this incident, I realised this is the first time someone has spotted and recognised me. That too for my appearance in Aary Vlogs. I've been working as an actor for so long, but nobody ever recognised me for that. Acting se koi nahi pehchan raha mujhe, vlogging se pehchaan rahe hai sab log (Nobody is recognising me for my acting; everyone knows me through vlogging),' she added while laughing. Archana Puran Singh's two sons – Aaryamann and Ayushmaan, and Yogita launched their new song 'Madhubala' recently. The trio even stepped out on the streets of Bandra to promote their track and take genuine feedback from the viewers.
