Shehnaaz Gill says audience voting for Shehbaz Badesha and Mridul Tiwari before Bigg Boss 19 is ‘unfair': ‘I really want both of them to go in, only then they will know how difficult the journey is'
Salman Khan–hosted Bigg Boss 19 is just a week away from its premiere. While a list of probable contestants has surfaced online, the final lineup will only be revealed when the show premieres next Sunday. Last week, however, the makers revealed two names who might enter the show, Shehnaaz Gill's brother Shehbaz Badesha and YouTube content creator Mridul Tiwari, and announced that their participation would depend on audience voting. While the 'fans ka faisla' is still awaited, actor Shehnaaz, who rose to fame with Bigg Boss 13, has reacted to the decision and called the opportunity 'unfair'. A few weeks back, SCREEN had exclusively reported that the audience will play a crucial role in driving the show's narrative this year, and the contestants will run the house this time. Now, as Shehbaz and Mridul's fate lies in the hands of the audience, Shehnaaz shared a video on her Instagram stories and said, 'When I was on Bigg Boss 13, my brother Shehbaz had been manifesting for the show since then. He had stayed there for a week, and people had loved him a lot; now, finally, he is getting a chance to go on Bigg Boss 19. But the opportunity is such that both the guys have been nominated and left homeless, which is quite unfair.' She added, 'I really want both of them to go in, but I want you all to vote for Shehbaz. They are so eager to go inside, let them go there. Only then will they know how difficult the journey is. Please send both the boys in.' A post shared by SHEHBAZ BADESHA (@badeshashehbaz) So far, a few names reported as confirmed contestants for Bigg Boss 19 include Ashnoor Kaur, Gaurav Khanna, Awez Darbar, Nagma Mirajkar, Shafak Naaz, Hunar Gandhi, Siwet Tomar, Baseer Ali, Anaya Bangar, Payal Gaming, and Khank Waghnani. However, as with every season, the final lineup will only be announced at the premiere, since negotiations with contestants often continue until the last minute. Other names rumored to be part of the show include Dheeraj Dhoopar, Khushi Dubey, Arbaaz Patel, Shehbaz Badesha, and Mridul Tiwari. A post shared by JioHotstar Reality (@jiohotstarreality) Bigg Boss 19 will premiere on August 24 on JioHotstar. As SCREEN had reported earlier this year, the Salman Khan-hosted show will be a digital-first property. It will stream first on JioHotstar at 9 pm and then air on Colors TV at 10:30 pm. This year, the theme of the show is Demo-crazy, where the contestants will run the house and make major decisions.

Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi: Smriti Irani As Tulsi Moves Audience With Emotional Vidai Scene
The latest episode of Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, starring Smriti Irani and Amar Upadhyay, showcases an emotional vidaai sequence. Ektaa Kapoor-backed Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi reboot, led by Smriti Irani and Amar Upadhyay, is a hit. At a time when daily soaps are going through a challenging time, Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi topping the BARC charts proves that the industry can be resurrected with good content and nostalgia. In the recent episode, the show marked a significant milestone with the wedding of Tulsi and Mihir's daughter, Pari. The highlight of the track was the touching 'vidai' sequence, which saw Smriti Irani deliver a powerful and heartfelt performance, reminding fans why Tulsi remains one of Indian television's most beloved characters. In the poignant farewell scene, Tulsi, played by Smriti Irani, shares an emotional goodbye with her daughter, embodying the complex emotions of a mother letting go — joy, pride, and heartbreak. Smriti's performance struck a chord with viewers and cast members alike, many of whom were visibly moved during the shoot. The special episode also brought back several familiar faces from the original ensemble, turning the set into a warm reunion filled with nostalgia and camaraderie. The return of iconic characters made the wedding celebration all the more memorable, creating a sense of continuity and legacy for longtime fans of the show. Take a look at a few stills from Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi reboot: Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi reboot episode not only reaffirms Smriti Irani's lasting bond with the character of Tulsi, but also stands out as a moment of emotional resonance in the show's ongoing narrative. The 'vidai' scene is already being hailed as one of the most moving moments of the season. Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi becomes highest-related Hindi daily soap Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi reboot, which premiered on July 29 on Star Plus and JioHotstar, made a remarkable debut with a 2.5 TVR, making it the highest-rated Hindi GEC fiction launch (drama series or daily soap broadcast on Hindi-language General Entertainment Channels in India) in the last five years, as per BARC data. The show even surpassed Rupali Ganguly's Anupamaa, which had recently dipped and landed in the third spot with a 2.1 TVR. In a fragmented TV landscape where most fiction shows fail to cross the 2 TVR mark in their opening week, this can be safely touted as a landmark achievement. Recently, during an interview with Filmibeat, when Smriti was asked about feeling pressurised about TRPs, the actress-politician said, 'I think we have set the benchmark. So, there's nobody else to compete with but us. But I also understand that when we began the show (25 years ago), there was no social media, there was no OTT, there was no fragmented audience, we had no PR, we had no hoarding, we had no Instagram to tell our viewers what is upcoming or who is in the cast. Nobody had any followers anywhere. So, to have our hands tied behind and still manage to give such an excellent product, for that time, was historical." 'Today's history has been created because there are no shows that can come back after 25 years and still be successful with the same cast, with the same production house, on the same network. So, I think we have managed to recreate history. For us today, we are free from the pressures of revenue or numbers because we have already proven our mark," she added. Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi airs Monday to Friday at 10:30 PM, only on Star Plus. First Published: August 17, 2025, 13:46 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Dharmendra Says He Recommended Amitabh Bachchan For Jai's Role In Sholay: 'But He Got The Part…'
Last Updated: Dharmendra recalls recommending Amitabh Bachchan for Sholay, shares behind-the-scenes stories, and why he loves Pratiggya over the blockbuster. Sholay 50 Years: Veteran actor Dharmendra recently opened up about the legendary shoot of Sholay and the experiences that shaped his career. Speaking with SCREEN, he reflected on the gruelling schedules, memorable moments with co-stars and why Dulal Guha's Pratiggya remains closest to his heart. He said he never thought Sholay would go on to become a blockbuster. 'I didn't [expect Sholay to be such a milestone]," Dharmendra said. 'Of course, we worked very hard on the film. The shoots on the outskirts of Bangalore were gruelling. There were no hotels around. We had to drive down to the location 50 kilometres away from Bangalore every day. But it was a lot of fun. Lots of memories. Hema was there with me. Jaya was there; she was expecting her first child." Dharmendra had nothing but praise for his co-star, Sanjeev Kapoor. 'He was exceptional in every sense. What a human being and what an actor! I had the privilege of working with him in another exceptional film, Satyakam, where we played friends." When asked to compare Satyakam and Sholay, Dharmendra joked, 'That is very hard to answer. Hrishida [Mukherjee] and Ramesh Sippy were very different directors. It is like comparing Lata Mangeshkar with Asha Bhosle." Pratiggya: Dharmendra's Personal Favourite Movie Despite Sholay's massive success, Dharmendra says Pratiggya holds a special place. 'I love Dulal Guha's Pratiggya the most because it was a really tough role. I had to play a truck driver who masquerades as a cop. It was like playing a role within a role. It was a layered character with lots of emotions and drama. I had made to make people laugh all the way. But there was an undercurrent of emotions. It was a challenge. And people loved me in it." He added, 'Though Satyakam and Sholay are among my favourites, my all-time favourite is Pratiggya. It came during the same year 1975 as Sholay, so it went unnoticed. But let me tell you, Pratiggya was a super hit in spite of competition from Sholay." Memories From The Sholay Set Dharmendra also shared stories about casting choices. 'Yes, I did put in a word for Bachchan Saab [Amitabh Bachchan] to Ramesh Sippy. But he finally got the part on merit." On playing Veeru, he said, 'No, I was very happy playing Veeru. It is the part that chose me, more than I chose it." First Published: Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's. Please keep discussions respectful and constructive.
