THIS actor replaced Ajay Devgn in film with Karisma Kapoor and Shilpa Shetty, delivered a blockbuster—then vanished from the director's life for 20 years
Before achieving stardom, Akshay Kumar faced numerous failures until Suneel Darshan offered him 'Jaanwar,' a role initially intended for Ajay Devgn. Darshan recognized Kumar's potential despite industry doubts, leading to a successful collaboration of seven films. However, their close bond eventually faded as Kumar's career evolved, resulting in a separation after years of partnership. Before Akshay Kumar became one of Bollywood's most bankable stars, he faced a string of failures, industry rejections, and a career-threatening slump. It was during this turbulent phase that filmmaker Suneel Darshan gave him a second chance with Jaanwar—a film originally meant for Ajay Devgn . The role that could have gone to Ajay Devgn In a recent interview with Bollywood Bubble, Suneel recalled how Akshay approached him for Jaanwar during a low point in his career. At the time, Akshay had delivered around 13 to 14 flops and was struggling to find work. Suneel shared that many in the industry had started distancing themselves from Akshay, making it a tough phase for the actor. Around the same time, the director had a fallout with Sunny Deol , for whom Jaanwar was originally written. After parting ways with Sunny, he approached Ajay Devgn, who was almost finalized for the role. But just as things were about to be locked, Akshay Kumar reached out. After meeting him, Suneel was impressed by Akshay's humility and presence, and decided to cast him instead. Darshan also noted that while Kumar had many strengths—especially his reputation for discipline—the biggest challenge was that he wasn't considered a bankable star at the time. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Celebrity Mugshot Hall Of Shame As Stars Isolated in Jail Instead Of Luxury Mansions Undo Casting him in a big-budget film like Jaanwar was a major risk. Suneel highlighted the harsh truth of the film industry, saying that people treat actors well only when they are successful. The moment their career dips, the same people start humiliating them—something he described as deeply traumatic for any actor. The filmmaker recalled that Jaanwar marked a turning point, with strong support from his team, including Karisma Kapoor , who was a top star at the time. The film's success led to a long collaboration with Akshay Kumar, with the duo working on six more films together—Ek Rishtaa, Talaash, Dosti, Mere Jeevan Saathi, and Andaaz (which Suneel didn't direct). Their partnership saw a mix of hits and misses over the years. Suneel shared that he and Akshay Kumar worked on seven films together, with their last project fittingly titled Dosti. For seven years, Akshay operated from Suneel's office whenever he wasn't shooting. Suneel recalled being one of the few who stood by Akshay when others dismissed him, and felt proud to see the actor eventually succeed—working with the same industry figures who once rejected him, but this time on his own terms. A risky bet that paid off Darshan recalled that during their sixth film together, he sensed a shift in Akshay Kumar's energy. After the success of Jaanwar, Akshay took him for a drive and expressed concern about rumours that Suneel might be launching a new actor. When Suneel explained it was just a meeting out of respect for the actor's father, Akshay made an emotional appeal—asking him not to sign anyone else and promising to do 100 films with him. Suneel remembered being struck by the sincerity of that moment. He added that even completing seven films with the same actor was a significant achievement. However, by the time they worked on their sixth project, Suneel began noticing a change in Akshay's behaviour—and it became more apparent during their seventh film. Realising the shift, he decided it was best to step away and quietly moved on. A 20-year silence The director-actor, once close collaborators and friends, drifted apart so much that they haven't met in nearly 20 years. The director revealed that their last meeting was in 2005, and since then, they've only exchanged brief birthday wishes once or twice. Suneel said he let go of the past so Akshay could move forward in his career without any emotional baggage. Citing examples from the industry, he noted that even iconic partnerships like Amitabh Bachchan and Prakash Mehra eventually came to an end—something that's not uncommon in the film world.

Farah Khan jokes the only time she wanted to do a casting couch was with Boman Irani: ‘Don't tell Shirish I'm flirting with him'
Farah Khan 's recent vlog is a riot of humour, nostalgia, and candid moments as she paid a visit to long-time friend and actor Boman Irani 's home. Accompanied by her beloved cook Dilip , Farah brought along her signature wit and playful charm—along with a few cheeky jabs that had both Boman and his wife Zenobia laughing heartily. Before stepping into Irani's home, the Main Hoon Na director jokingly warned Dilip, 'Don't tell Shirish [Kunder, her husband] if I flirt with Boman.' The 60-year-old filmmaker didn't hold back as the flirtatious banter flowed effortlessly between her and the Happy New Year actor. Dilip, adorably clueless, asked, 'What is flirting?' Farah, ever the entertainer, explained, 'Flirting means nain mataka, or if I hug Boman sir, or if I sit next to him.' The cook then mock-threatened to spill the beans to Shirish, prompting a playful scolding from Farah. 'Only casting couch I wanted to do was with Boman' In a moment that had everyone in splits, Farah made a hilarious revelation. 'The only time I wanted to do a casting couch for my movie was with Boman. But he got the role just like that, didn't even sit on the couch,' she quipped, referring to casting him in her directorial debut Main Hoon Na. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Colombia: New Senior Apartments (Prices May Surprise You) Senior Apartments | Search Ads Search Now Undo She later asked Dilip if he even knew what a casting couch was. When he replied he didn't, Farah breathed a sigh of relief and said, 'You please go to the kitchen now.' Zenobia's unbothered reaction The playful banter between Farah and Boman continued right in front of Zenobia, Boman's wife. The actor turned to her, amused, and asked, 'How she laughs at all this?' Farah jumped in with the perfect punchline: 'Because she knows that nobody believes that we are having an affair.' Farah also shared a funny anecdote from the past—how she once got all dressed up thinking she was attending Boman's birthday party, only to realise she had arrived a day early. The two laughed heartily as they recalled the mix-up, before heading to the kitchen for some joint cooking fun. As the duo got busy in the kitchen, Boman jokingly tried to excuse himself: 'This means it is my time to get out of the kitchen.' Farah, of course, had other plans. 'No sir, you need to be here for the cooking. Chutney kaun lagayega apne haatho se?' she teased. Eventually, Boman called for Dilip's assistance, unable to resist the camaraderie. Mrunal Thakur Turns Dance Teacher; Farah Khan's Cook Nails 'Po Po' Steps 'Dare you tell anything to Shirish' In true Farah style, the filmmaker rounded off the video with another light threat to her cook. 'Dare you tell anything to Shirish. I will have your salary reduced,' she warned, as Dilip flashed a knowing smile. In another heartwarming moment, Zenobia praised Farah for her entertaining vlogs with Dilip, cementing what was clearly an afternoon full of laughter, memories, and mischief.

Lucknow: The historic Pari Khana, a sprawling 19th-century structure within the Bhatkhande Sanskriti Vishwavidyalaya campus, is set to be transformed into a multipurpose hall while preserving its architectural heritage. Constructed during Wajid Ali Shah's reign, it once served as a prestigious cultural hub and training ground for artists and performers. Bhatkhande Sanskriti Vishwavidyalaya vice-chancellor Mandavi Singh said, "While maintaining its original architecture, the restored building will be equipped with modern amenities like air conditioning and lighting along with beautification. It will serve as a multipurpose hall for meetings, conferences, seminars, and cultural performances." "Funded by the culture department, the restoration project has already received an allocation of around Rs 10 crore and the hall of Pari Khana is set to be restored within a year," she added.
