Mera unse aankhon mein interaction hua hai and unhone isharo mein she saved me. Today, in performance mere shayad kapdon ka malfunction hone wala tha. And she literally said (gestured with her eyes). Koi nahi karta. (Smriti ma'am is so sweet! Today I had eye contact with her, and she literally saved me. I think there was about to be a wardrobe malfunction during the performance, and she signalled to me through her eyes and helped. Honestly, no one else would have done that)."

'I am really glad ma'am. Thank you so much for saving me, as an artist while performing. Main uncomfortable ho jaati shayad, but unhone hone nahi diya. Toh unhone bohot dhyaan rakha hai har kisi ka. Kai log bolte nahi, but aapka dhyaan rakhte hain. So woh waisi hain. (I am really glad, ma'am. Thank you so much for saving me as an artist while I was performing. I might have become uncomfortable, but she didn't let that happen. She really took care of everyone. Many people don't always say it, but always look out for others. That's just how she is)," she further added.
Additionally, Shrashti also revealed that she was on the verge of leaving India after multiple auditions and no TV show offers. However, the day before her scheduled departure, she received the offer to join Kyunki… as Sandhya. Supported by her husband, she took the leap and is now part of the successful reboot.

Prabhas, the celebrated star of Baahubali, has consistently kept his personal life under wraps, leaving fans curious about his marriage plans. However, a fresh wave of anticipation has emerged following a recent statement by his paternal aunt, Shyamala Devi. As reported by News18 , a video featuring her comments quickly spread across social media platforms.

She further mentioned that the family is actively making arrangements, holding hope that divine grace will make the event possible in the near future. Her candid remarks have set off a renewed frenzy among admirers, many of whom are now closely watching for any official confirmation from the actor himself.

We are all making efforts for his marriage, and we hope that, with Lord Shiva's grace, it will happen soon," she said. The Raja Saab: Prabhas' First Foray into Full-Scale Horror Professionally, Prabhas is venturing into unexplored territory with The Raja Saab, his debut as the lead in a complete horror production. The motion poster, unveiled earlier this year, hinted at a unique blend of supernatural intrigue and vintage cinematic appeal. According to the makers, the project is helmed by director Maruthi, a filmmaker recognized for weaving humor seamlessly into emotional storytelling. The film boasts high production values, with cinematographer Karthik Palani and music director Thaman S playing pivotal roles. Innovative Music Creation Process In an interview conducted in March, Thaman S revealed a distinctive approach to composing for The Raja Saab. Instead of finalizing the soundtrack before filming, he opted for an evolving process, fine-tuning the music as the shooting progressed. Thaman explained that this strategy allows greater creative freedom, particularly since Prabhas is returning to mainstream commercial tracks after a long interval. The soundtrack includes a variety of numbers—a rousing introduction song, a melodious track, a vibrant dance piece, and a romantic number that serves as the film's central theme. A Star-Studded Cast and Nationwide Appeal With audio rights reportedly valued between ₹30 and ₹40 crore, Thaman S is aiming for music that resonates across diverse audiences in India. The ensemble cast features Malavika Mohanan, Nidhhi Agerwal, and Ridhi Kumar alongside Prabhas, promising a visually striking and emotionally engaging horror entertainer.
