(played by Pranali Rathod) by fighting with goons.
While audiences are captivated by his on-screen intensity, few know the discipline and effort Namik puts in off-screen to stay in shape and bring authenticity to his physically demanding role.
Despite the unpredictable hours and demanding nature of shoots, Namik has made fitness an essential part of his daily life on the sets of Kumkum Bhagya. Known for his strong work ethic and commitment to staying healthy, he finds creative ways to stay active between shots—from quick stretches to bodyweight workouts around the set.
He also maintains a balanced diet, often opting for home-cooked meals and hydrating regularly, which helps him stay energized and focused.
Namik Paul shared, "For me, health and fitness have always been non-negotiable. It's never just been about looking a certain way—it's about feeling strong, staying energized, and maintaining control over both my mind and body. On the sets of Kumkum Bhagya, I find small windows between scenes to do a few push-ups, jumping jacks, or just take a walk to keep my blood flowing."

He further added, "I make it a point to carry healthy snacks, stay well-hydrated, and be mindful of what I eat throughout the day. That said, I believe in balance, so I do indulge in a cheat meal now and then. It's all about enjoying the little things without compromising the bigger picture. On the days I am not shooting, I go harder in the gym—my workouts are a mix of strength training, muscle conditioning, and cardio. At the end of the day, fitness is not a phase or a checklist item—it's what keeps me grounded, centred, and ready to give my best.
"
In an industry that demands long hours and emotional intensity, Namik proves that maintaining his health is key to delivering his best, both on-screen and off. As we see on screen persona fight for his wife, will Shivansh and Prarthana's journey lead them to love after all?

Janhvi Kapoor's Balmain Little Red Dress Is A Symphony Of Art And Haute Couture
Last Updated: For her latest look, Janhvi Kapoor opted for a little red dress from Balmain's Spring/Summer 2025 collection. After delivering a heartfelt tribute to her late mother Sridevi in a stylish denim jacket, Janhvi Kapoor served yet another slay with her latest look. For her latest look, the actor turned heads in a little red Balmain dress, and her post has got everyone talking. Known for her love for haute couture, this red look is a signature Jahnvi win. Taking to her Instagram, Janhvi Kapoor shared a series of pictures of herself in a little red dress. The pictures showed her exuding main character energy as she posed in the corridors of a hotel room and even her bathroom. She paired the dress with minimal accessories and let it take the centre stage. Sharing the pictures, she wrote, 'Freshly cut bangs always make me feel a way." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Janhvi Kapoor (@janhvikapoor) For her latest look, Janhvi stepped out in a striking red mini dress from Balmain's Spring/Summer 2025 collection. The mini dress delivered maximum impact with its bold structure and intricate detailing. Featuring a sculpted off-shoulder neckline that curved into a deep scoop, the silhouette struck the perfect balance between classic glamour and daring allure. A dramatic peplum flare at the waist added architectural edge, beautifully framing Janhvi's hourglass figure. What elevated the look further was the abstract mosaic motifs of a human face – eyes, nose, and lips – crafted with precision and adorned in shimmering Swarovski embroidery. The ribbed textures across the ensemble gave it an almost armour-like elegance, turning the outfit into wearable art. Letting the dress command all the attention, Janhvi kept her accessories to a minimum. She opted for classic gold studs and statement rings on both hands, skipping the necklace and bracelets for a cleaner, more editorial look. For the glam, Janhvi went with a radiant and dewy base. She paired it with glossy peach lips that added freshness to the overall palette. When she wasn't donning sleek black sunglasses that gave her an air of authority, her smoky kohl-lined eyes did all the talking. Fluffy lashes and precisely shaped brows completed the eye-catching beauty moment. To top it all off, Janhvi wore her hair loose and sleek, with soft curtain bangs gently framing her face.

Mom Leaves Baby With Swing Operator At Fair, Returns To An Emotional Surprise
Last Updated: A woman left her toddler with a swing operator at a fair to enjoy a quick ride, but when she came back, the child refused to let go of his new companion. A heartwarming video from a local fair has gone viral, leaving the internet teary-eyed and smiling. A mother briefly handed her baby to a swing operator while she went on a ride. But what followed was unexpected—the baby formed a sudden emotional bond with the man and refused to return to the mother. The clip has sparked a wave of love online, reminding us how deeply human connection can form in moments. The touching video begins at what appears to be a bustling local mela, with festive lights, music, and joy in the air. A young mother, preparing to enjoy a ride, hands her baby over to a nearby swing operator, trusting him to hold the child just for a few minutes. The operator, dressed casually in a red t-shirt, accepts the baby warmly and carries on with his duties, gently rocking and comforting the child. To everyone's surprise, the baby seems to settle in almost immediately, relaxed, smiling, and even clinging to the man's shoulder. When the mother returns after her ride and reaches out for her baby, the unexpected happens. The baby begins to protest, clutching tightly onto the swing operator, visibly distressed at the thought of being taken away. What was meant to be a quick handover turned into a scene that melted thousands of hearts. The baby's attachment was innocent but powerful, showing a pure, spontaneous bond that didn't rely on familiarity or time. The swing operator is seen smiling awkwardly but gently trying to coax the baby into returning to the mother, who also appears amused and touched by her child's reaction. It's a simple exchange, but it reflects the beautiful unpredictability of human emotions, especially those of children, who often sense genuine warmth without words. There's no confirmed information about the exact date or location of the video, but it has taken over social media platforms, earning love and laughter across the board. Shared on Instagram on May 30, the video has already crossed 2.1 million views and received over 1 lakh likes, melting hearts across the internet.

Another heartwarming comment read, 'Not everyone is the same. This beautiful video is a reminder that even a small act of kindness can inspire love." Many believe the clip highlights how simple human moments can restore faith in goodness and emotional connections.
