Salman Khan asked, ‘life mein agey kuch karna hain' to 18-year-old Palak Tiwari, suggested working as an AD
Speaking on the latest episode of The Bombay Journey, by Mashable India, Palak opened up about how Salman sir helped her and how he has been a mentor from the beginning of her career. She said, 'It was at some Bigg Boss reunion, where Salman sir told my mom how tall I had become. He then said, 'Kuch karna warna he life mein (Have you thought of anything with your life)?' I said, 'Yes sir I want to be an actor, sir.' I was 17-18. He said that before you become an actor you need to learn what happens behind the camera. He is such a cool guy. I said okay, because you know as an actor one can take things for granted very easily.'
Palak went on add that she is always star-struck in front of Salman, 'I've done a whole film with him, whenever I meet him till date, or even if I get a message from him, I get star-struck. I usually don't get star-struck, you can make anyone sit in front of me. But when he's in front of me, I stop speaking and start stuttering. He just changed my entire personality. Then he said, 'Aaram se bolo (speak without hesitation).''
On the work front, Palak was last seen in the film Bhootnii, which was released earlier this month and starred alongside Sanjay Dutt, Mouni Roy, and Sunny Singh.

The show will run for five months. As reported by SCREEN earlier, the show has contestants divided into two teams, and this time, it will be the housemates who will run the show. Even the audience will be quite involved in taking the show's narrative forward. Every week, important decisions about the house will be taken by the housemates, and like host Salman Khan said in the promo, 'every action will have its consequence.' Bigg Boss 19 will have its grand premiere on August 24. The show will first stream on JioHotstar, and after 90 minutes, the latest episode will appear on Colors TV.

Rahul Vaidya pointed out how some people, before you follow them, always like, comment and react to your stories. Rahul Vaidya has never been the one to mince his words. Whether it's on stage, in interviews or on social media, the singer always says exactly what is on his mind, and his latest post is proof. Now, his latest note on Instagram Stories has once again grabbed attention, where he declared that he would be unfollowing some of the 'stars' on the photo-sharing application. In the post, Rahul pointed out how some people, before you follow them, always like, comment and react to your stories. He further emphasised how they suddenly start acting like full-on 'stars." Ending his note with a playful jab, he said he would unfollow a few of these 'stars" soon because they don't need him anymore. The note read, 'Kya aapke bhi life me bhi aise log hain jinko aapne jab tak follow nahi kiya tha tab tak like, comment, story pe react karte the? And after you followed them, wo achanak 'STAR" ban gaye.. Gonna unfollow some stars soon. You guys don't need me at all. You are Stars after all. (Do you also have people in your life who, until you followed them, would like, comment and react to your stories? And after you followed them, they suddenly became a 'STAR'? Gonna unfollow some stars soon. You guys don't need me at all — you are stars after all)." Rahul Vaidya On Reality Shows Singer Rahul Vaidya, who rose to fame as a contestant on the popular singing reality show 'Indian Idol," went on to participate in several reality shows, including Bigg Boss, where he emerged as a runner-up. According to him, he never initially planned to be part of more reality television shows. Speaking to IANS, Rahul shared, 'I have never planned my life; I actually never do. I just take it as it comes, and I never thought of doing a reality show, even though my career started with a reality show, Indian Idol. Bigg Boss happened just by chance, and also because it was Covid, because of which I chose to do it. So, everything just followed." Rahul Vaidya On Laughter Chefs Rahul Vaidya was last seen in Laughter Chefs, which was a welcoming change for him as he showcased his comic timing and culinary skills. About the show, he said, 'When I used to go to a show before Laughter Chefs, people used to tell me they still haven't forgotten your participation in Indian Idol. Now people have somehow stopped talking about it because I think they like Laughter Chefs more." Rahul Vaidya also took part in Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi 11, where he reached the finals.
