'I cried in my van...' Isha Koppikar reveals SHOCKING incident with choreographer, 'He insulted me in public...'
'I cried in my van...' Isha Koppikar reveals SHOCKING incident with choreographer, 'He insulted me in public...' Before garnering fame in the Hindi film industry with films like Don, Company and Salaam-e-Ishq , Isha Koppikar started her career in South cinema. The actress recently recounted a bruising experience she encountered at the start of her acting journey. Isha Koppikar recalls being humiliated by a South choreographer In a conversation with Digital Commentary, Isha recalled being publicly humiliated by a choreographer on the sets of her Telugu debut for lacking dance training. Sharing the painful incident, she shared, 'Yes, in one of the South films, I had just begun my career. This is before I entered Bollywood. When I was on set, there was a lot of dance. You know how South dances are — they are not easy. But in my first film, mere choreographer ne mujhe sabke saamne bola ki yeh Bollywood se ladkiyan aati hai, pata nahi kyun le lete hain inko. Kuch aata hi nahi inhe.' Clearly affected by the remarks at the time, Isha said, 'He humiliated me. I don't know if he was under some pressure. And he said dance nahi aata toh yahan kyun aayi ho? I felt very bad and humiliated. I went back to my make-up room and I cried. But I took it up as a challenge. And I said, the next time I come to the South, I'll come after learning how to dance — I won't let anyone talk like that again.' How 'Khallas' became a turning point in Isha Koppikar's career Determined to transform, she sought guidance from Saroj Khan's assistant Usha Ji. Her hard work paid off as she delivered a superhit dance number Khallas in Company (2002) , popularly becoming the 'Khallas Girl.' She thanked Khallas director Ram Gopal Varma and choreographer Ganesh Acharya for giving her the opportunity and said, 'Ramu came to me and said, 'I have made this set for you. You should feel that this is your father's set. I want such an attitude. So I said, 'Okay. If it is my father's, then I will bring the same attitude. And then Khallas happened and magic happened.' Meanwhile, Isha recently appeared in Ayalaan , a Tamil sci-fi film starring Sivakarthikeyan, Rakul Preet Singh, and others.

The show brings back Smriti Irani and Amar Upadhyay as Tulsi and Mihir Virani, joined by a new generation of the Virani family, sparking nostalgia among fans. What worked for Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi reboot? Leaning heavily on nostalgia, the reboot used the original theme song and brought back iconic characters, aiming to connect with viewers who loved the early 2000s classic. The first episode also paid homage to characters like Baa and Savita Virani. Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi reboot relied on best promotional tactics The show benefited from an aggressive promotional campaign across TV and digital platforms. As per an Exchange 4 Media report, the show locked in eight major sponsors ahead of the launch, and four more advertisers came on board just a day before the premiere, impressed by the buzz and projected viewership. The additional sponsors are believed to include brands from the consumer electronics, insurance, and household goods sectors, though their names remain undisclosed. Piyush Goyal, TV Distribution Head at JioStar, called the 2.5 TVR a 'milestone" and thanked the distribution network for amplifying the show's reach.

An excerpt from our review read: 'It is worth noting that as Ekta Kapoor reintroduces Tulsi and Mihir to the screen, she adds an emotional masterstroke — a beautifully edited video montage featuring their most iconic moments from the original series. This heartfelt compilation plays like a nostalgic rewind, capturing the essence of their enduring bond, dramatic highs, and tear-jerking lows. It's a deliberate and touching reminder of why these characters became household names in the first place."
