Sophia Kanmani Shekhar, played by Bhumi Pednekar in The Royals, is a bold and smart young woman who starts from scratch and builds her own business empire. She's confident, speaks her mind, and knows what she wants. Even though she's surrounded by royalty and drama, Sophia stays true to herself. She's strong, sassy, and always stands up for what's right. Whether it's handling tough business deals or emotional moments, she proves you can be powerful and kind at the same time.
5 signs that you are Sophia from The Royals
1. You're a Self-Made Girl Boss
You don't wait around for opportunities to come knocking, you take charge and create them yourself. Much like Sophia from The Royals, who didn't just settle but boldly built her own hospitality ventures such as WorkPotato and Royal Airbnb, you're forging your own path with relentless determination and ambition.
2. You Speak Your Mind, Fearlessly
Whether it's speaking up in boardroom meetings, expressing your true feelings to the Maharaja, or closing important deals with clients, you never hold back. Just like Sophia, your boldness and fearless honesty are what make you stand out from the crowd.
3. You Don't Let Anyone Define You
You don't let anyone else define who you are. When the board chose to remove Sophia from her CEO position, she refused to back down. Instead, she made a strong comeback by organizing a impactful fashion charity show, showing the world that only she has the power to define her own value and identity.
4. You Handle Drama with Grace and Sass
Sophia handles drama with both grace and sass. From office chaos and funding struggles to the Royal BnB launch and her complicated love life with Maharaj Aviraaj, she navigates every challenge like a pro, always adding a touch of sass wherever she goes.
5. You Champion Other Women
You champion other women. Just like Sophia and her close friends Nikki and Keerthana, she doesn't only focus on herself but is a true woman's woman, always standing by her friends through thick and thin, no matter the challenges they face.

The Map That Leads to You star Sofia Wylie under fire for ‘shade' against BLACKPINK, KATSEYE's Sophia gets dragged into row

The red carpet of The Map That Leads to You's premiere recently turned viral for very different reasons than the makers would have expected. Actress Sofia Wylie turned up the heat with the comments for K-pop group BLACKPINK. What was probably meant as praise for the team turned into criticism online, or maybe it was an intended diss. The group's fandom is not taking it well and has also lashed out against KATSEYE member Sophia, who dropped a like on the video where Sofia Wylie was heard saying that the K-pop stars are 'giving nothing' these days. Sofia Wylie goes up against BLACKPINK, here's what happened Talking to MTV, she said, 'KATSEYE is my bae. I love KATSEYE. I watch every one of their videos. They just performed at Lollapalooza. My girls are going crazy. And BLACKPINK, I love you. Even though you're giving us nothing right now, I love you still. Always.' Sofia Wylie's remark about 'giving us nothing' has hit the fans the wrong way. Many are calling it a dig at the group's members' dancing and singing, as well as the overall vibe during the team's ongoing tour, which has been inviting some criticism on the internet. Others are linking it to how the quartet has released only 1 song after a wait of 3 years, and that the American actor probably meant that BLACKPINK had not given back to their fans, instead of it being about their performance. But that is about to change as reports of the singers releasing a new album in November are already making the rounds. It is not known what Sofia Wylie's real intent was, but fans are definitely not happy with her words. On the other hand, KATSEYE's Sophia is said to have liked the video, inviting another wave of criticism from the fans to her Instagram, where they're taking her reaction as an agreement to the diss. Instantly, the younger singer's account was flooded with bad comments and painting it as 'jealousy'. None of the involved artists has spoken about the incident since.

Freakier Friday Movie Review: Jamie Lee Curtis serves up magic once again in a vanilla sequel

Full credit to Nisha for erasing Asian stereotypes, and Freakier Friday feels like a deliberate attempt at rekindling magic once again, this time with a four-way body swap. Jamie Lee Curtis charms her way into our hearts by wearing baffling costumes one moment, and instantly channeling her eccentricities in another. She holds the entire magic show of the sequel in her hands. As she fits into Lily's behavioural patterns, she delivers lines that are aimed at offending millennials, boomers, Gen-X, and cheekily herself as well. The lines are either brilliantly tailored for her or it is just good ol' Jamie delivering the goods. At one point, much like the original, she calls herself a "birkin bag that's been left to rot" and in another, she calls Facebook a "database for old people". The self-inflicted body jokes continue, but they are so well-mannered and goody-goody that by the time you process it, another crackling comedy lights up the screen. Julia Butters and Sophia Hammons act and play like adults whilst also portraying teenagers with such intensity that it's hard to ignore their real ages. But unlike Julia, Sophia struggles to bring out her immigrant emotions, and the writing doesn't give her the space to do it either. It is only through Eric that we learn about Sophia's trauma and the feeling of never having a complete home. Aimed as a full-fledged comedy, Freakier Friday disappointingly doesn't give the space to explore these complex feelings. Leave aside hormones, what does it feel like to raise a child who mirrors you? Someone who is a million times more over-exposed than you are, and has a constant need to stay abreast of trends to beat bullies. A Mean Girl star like Lohan will know best, but the film never enters these territories. It stays blissfully carefree from these chains to focus on the crumbling family and saving Anna's marriage. Lohan gets a comeback to theatres after a string of Netflix romcoms in a role that didn't reaffirm her versatility, and this could be that fresh start. Maitreyi Ramakrishnan as Ella, unfortunately, loses the sheen of her performance in a role that's hollow and gullible, and Jake's (Chad Michael Murray) entry is simply a last-ditch attempt that goes nowhere.

Milind Soman talks about 'fitness, desirability' at 59: ‘Age has nothing to do with it' Interview

Actor Milind Soman, at 59, embodies the idea that age is just a number. His Instagram profile showcases his dedication to fitness, with posts featuring him going on runs, engaging in intense workout sessions, and even running nude on the beach. The actor says he works hard for it, instead of chasing shortcuts or filters. Milind Soman was last seen in web series, The Royals.(Instagram) In an interview with Hindustan Times, Milind opens up about his fitness philosophy, sharing his secrets to staying active and living life with ease. On his fitness secret at 59 Milind is a total fitness inspiration. When asked about his secret to staying healthy, he reveals it's all about keeping it simple. 'I focus on being active, hydration, sleeping on time and eating clean. A calm mind and a healthy lifestyle are the best glow-up tools,' he tells us. Talking about balancing his busy schedule with his fitness routine, the actor, who was most recently seen in the web series, The Royals, mentions, 'Fitness doesn't need hours; it just needs commitment." 'Even 15–20 minutes a day can make a difference if you stay consistent. I make time because it's a non-negotiable part of my day, like eating or sleeping. My advice? Start small, stay regular, and choose something you enjoy. That's how habits are built,' says the actor, who entered showbiz as a model, going on to make a place for himself in the world of cinema. At 59, he is still considered a desirable figure in the industry, and he is humbled by the tag. 'I think it's a mix of things- staying fit, feeling good, and being comfortable with who I am. Confidence comes from knowing you're taking care of yourself, inside and out. Age has nothing to do with desirability, it's about how you show up in the world, with energy, purpose, and authenticity,' says Milind. On ozempic trend and fad diets Amidst the Ozempic craze and fleeting diets, Milind isn't swayed by the latest weight loss fads. Instead, he champions a timeless approach: sustainable habits that nurture overall well-being. 'Everyone's journey with health is personal, and what works for one may not work for another. For me, the focus has always been on sustainable habits- eating well, staying active, and listening to my body,' says the actor, who recently collaborated with Plum Goodness for a campaign which spoke about putting in the right efforts for bright results. Milind continues, 'Real results come from doing the right things consistently over time. There are no shortcuts, in fitness or in life. Today, when everything feels rushed or filtered, it is important to slow down, focus on what matters, and trust the process.'
