Neil Nitin Mukesh shares daughter Nurvi's love for arts and Amitabh Bachchan films
Actor Neil Nitin Mukesh recently spoke about his daughter Nurvi's budding interest in the arts and her growing admiration for cinema, particularly his own films and those of legendary actor Amitabh Bachchan. In an exclusive conversation with India Today Digitial, the actor opened up about how his six-year-old is gradually discovering her love for both cinema and music.Speaking about his daughter's hobbies, Neil said, "Currently, she's enjoying cycling and skating. She got really inspired after watching my film 'Lafangey Parindey,' so she wanted to learn skating when she saw her father could do it."advertisementWhile Neil remains mindful of what he allows her to watch, Nurvi has already seen a few of his notable films. "She has watched a few of my films. I was quite shocked when she saw 'New York.' She's also seen 'Hisaab Barabar,' 'Lafangey Parindey,' 'Aa Dekhen Zara' - because there's a camera sequence she found interesting, mainly because of the jungles of Masai Mara," he said.However, not all of Neil's films make it to her watchlist. "I don't show her all my films. Some are intense. For example, when she saw 'New York,' she felt a bit overwhelmed. She watched a bit of 'Players' and got very upset in the end because my character gets shot."Neil also shared that his daughter has already found her screen idol. "She's a huge Amitabh Bachchan fan—and I'm so glad that her first screen idol is Mr. Bachchan. It's amazing how he continues to inspire generation after generation. She enjoys watching a lot of his films with me. We've seen classics like 'Sholay' and 'Satte Pe Satta' together."advertisement'Among the current generation of actors, she doesn't have a particular favourite; she just enjoys movies in general,' he added.When asked if he sees Nurvi following in his footsteps, Neil said, "Will she follow in my footsteps? I don't know. She's a free bird. But I do see an inclination towards the arts. She sings well, she's learning Kathak and training with a vocal teacher. She's just six but already passionate about music and dance. So I just pray to God that she continues to carry forward the Mukesh family legacy in some way."Neil Nitin Mukesh's latest web series, 'Hai Junoon!', is currently streaming on JioHotstar.Must Watch

Death Stranding 2: On the Beach release date, story, characters & gameplay revealed at Summer Game Fest 2025
Death Stranding 2: On the Beach - Remember the first time we stepped into the strange, beautiful, and haunting world of Death Stranding? That feeling of wandering alone across empty lands, reconnecting broken pieces of a shattered world—yeah, it stayed with us. Well, guess what? Kojima is bringing us back to that world, and this time, it's deeper, more emotional, and honestly… it feels like coming home to something you didn't realize you missed. With Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, we're not just getting a sequel—we're getting answers, fresh mysteries, and upgrades that'll shake things up in the best way possible. Whether you're a hardcore Kojima fan or just someone who loves a game that makes you feel, this one's for you. Let's unpack everything we know so far—together. Death Stranding 2: Kojima returns with a deeper journey Set to launch on June 26, 2025, exclusively on PlayStation 5, Hideo Kojima is back with Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, and the emotional tide is stronger than ever. Revealed during the Summer Game Fest 2025, the sequel to the beloved and mysterious 2019 title promises a deeper, more emotionally complex journey. It's not just a game—it's a story of fragile human connection in a fractured world. The game expands the universe of Sam Porter Bridges and introduces new characters, upgraded gameplay, and stunning visuals powered by the Decima Engine. Death Stranding 2 new trailer: Meet Neil and Lucy The newest trailer, introduced by Kojima himself, centres on Neil (played by Troy Baker) and Lucy (played by Elle Fanning), teasing their fragile bond and a haunting conversation about trust, betrayal, and survival. Unlike the stoic tone of the first game, the sequel explores more nuanced emotions and complex dialogues, hinting at philosophical undertones. The visuals are breathtaking—icy terrain, sprawling dystopian ruins, and a cinematic sequence featuring cryptic symbols and mysterious technology. This clip alone has reignited excitement across the gaming community. Classic mechanics with bold upgrades While core gameplay elements like terrain traversal and cargo management return, Kojima Productions has added fresh mechanics. A monorail system helps Sam travel long distances more efficiently, and a day-night cycle now affects enemy behaviour and visibility, pushing strategy to the next level. Combat has also received an overhaul. Players can expect a new set of weapons and stealth options, as well as updated UI systems for inventory and communication with allies. A bridge to the past and future With the return of familiar faces like Sam (Norman Reedus) and Fragile (Léa Seydoux), On the Beach doesn't forget its roots. But it also introduces philosophical depth, exploring questions like: Can broken people reconnect in a broken world? Kojima described this sequel as 'a game about rebuilding humanity, not just delivering packages.' Is it mandatory for everyone reviewing Death Stranding 2 to hit this pose? Fans are also intrigued by the game's cryptic subtitle 'On the Beach,' which seems to hint at existential themes and dreamlike spaces, possibly inspired by the ending of the first game. Death Stranding 2: On the Beach isn't just another sequel—it's a return to a story that once connected us in ways we never expected. It's emotional, it's ambitious, and it dares to be different—again. And if you're anything like us, you're already feeling that itch to step back into Sam's boots and start walking toward something greater than yourself. This article? It wasn't just about facts or gameplay—it was written for fans, by someone who gets it. Who knows what it's like to stare at Kojima's trailers like decoding dreams, to feel the chill of a lonely cliffside, and to cry at a cutscene you didn't see coming? So, if your heart's racing just thinking about what's next... well, you're not alone. We'll meet you on the beach. To stay updated on the stories that are going viral, follow Indiatimes Trending.
