"Eight hours, breakfast to lunch": R.S. Prasanna on his first meeting with Aamir Khan

Filmmaker R.S. Prasanna, who is gearing up for the release of his next film 'Sitaare Zameen Par,' recently opened up about his first-ever in-person meeting with Bollywood icon Aamir Khan . While the thought of interacting with a superstar made him nervous initially, the director revealed that all anxiety faded once the conversation began. What was meant to be a brief discussion stretched into an eight-hour exchange that spanned both breakfast and lunch. Aamir Khan was always the first choice for the lead Recalling the early days of the project in an interview with IANS, Prasanna shared that Aamir Khan's name instantly came to mind when thinking about the right actor for the lead role. 'Even before we met, we had some virtual interactions. I felt this was a story that would naturally appeal to Aamir sir,' he said. To his surprise, the actor's team had already reached out with interest, making the opportunity all the more serendipitous. A perfect match of story and superstar The director approached the collaboration as both a filmmaker and a fan. 'Everything I would want to see in an Aamir Khan film, humour, heart, sensitivity, it was all there in this script,' he explained. Prasanna believed the film had the perfect mix of emotion and entertainment, and was thrilled that Aamir not only agreed to act in it but also showed immense faith in him as a director. Aamir Khan's warmth turned admiration into confidence What stood out most to Prasanna was Aamir Khan's humility and warmth. 'He made me feel at ease within ten minutes,' he said, recalling how surreal it felt to connect with someone he had long admired. 'It was like talking to a friend, not a superstar. That one meeting gave me the confidence I needed to take on a film of this scale.' 'Sitaare Zameen Par' is slated to release on June 20, 2025.

When Shruti Haasan opened up about parents Kamal Haasan and Sarika's divorce: 'It taught me why it is essential for a woman to be independent'

Actress-turned-singer Shruti Haasan once reflected on her personal experiences growing up in a high-profile household, shedding light on the emotional complexities of her parents Kamal Haasan and Sarika 's separation. Shruti spoke about how their divorce reshaped her understanding of family dynamics and the importance of independence, particularly for women. Shruti about her parents and family life In an old interview with Pinkvilla, Shruti said that she was born into a beautiful family where her parents were artistic and intelligent. She described it as her utmost comfort zone but opened up about the other side of it. 'But I have seen the other side of it as well. When my parents split up, everything changed. That's when I realised the value of financial independence and personality-driven independence. Especially being a daughter and seeing that Mumma walked out of a marriage, it taught me an important lesson on why it is essential for a woman to be independent,' Shruti stated. About emotional turmoil Shruti Haasan on her parents' divorce: 'Was excited that they'll live their own lives' Though Shruti and her younger sister Akshara grew up amidst fame and privilege, she revealed how the 2004 divorce had a significant emotional impact on both of them. She also raised an important point about how societal pressure can sometimes push couples to remain in unhappy marriages, which might be even more damaging for children. 'Of course, it is painful — for the children as well as the parents. This is a normal part of so many homes today. And it is not like it is painful only when the parents are getting separated. There are homes where, for society, the parents live together — sometimes there is more pain in those homes because it's hidden,' she added. Kamal Haasan's marriages Kamal Haasan was first married to classical dancer Vani Ganapathy in 1978. Vani also worked as his costume designer in several films. After divorcing Vani, Kamal began his relationship with Sarika in 1988, after the birth of their first child, Shruti, in 1986. They eventually tied the knot and had their second daughter, Akshara, in 1991. Kamal and Sarika ended their marriage in 2004.
