Farah Khan says when heroine falls on set, film becomes hit; cites Kajol, Preity Zinta's examples: ‘Main 1-2 ko dhakka…'
Filmmaker Farah Khan's vlogs with her cook Dilip, where she visits the homes of Bollywood celebrities to cook with them, have quickly gained popularity. In the latest vlog, Farah visited Sanya Malhotra's house and, during their conversation, she remarked that when a film's female lead falls on set, it's a sign that the film is destined for success.

As Farah and Sanya were talking, the filmmaker noticed a scar on the actor's leg. Sanya revealed it was from a bike accident that occurred on the sets of Vishal Bhardwaj's Pataakha. She then recalled how, during the shoot of Badhaai Ho, the floor was cleaned with oil because it wasn't shining, and when she went on to dance to the song Morni Banke, she slipped. Reacting to this, Farah said, 'The film in which a heroine falls, it becomes a hit.' Sanya added that she has fallen in almost every film, to which Farah responded that this is the reason for her films' success.
Farah recalled, 'Kajol used to keep falling in every film like Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, and we used to say now the movie's a hit. In Kal Ho Naa Ho, Preity Zinta was doing a shot on a bridge, and she fell. We were relieved that now the film would be a hit. Main toh ek-do ko dhakka maar dun picture mein (I would push 1-2 in films).'
Meanwhile, on the work front, Farah was last seen hosting the television reality show Celebrity MasterChef, which was judged by Chef Ranveer Brar and Chef Vikas Khanna. The show was won by actor Gaurav Khanna. Sanya will next be seen in the movie Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari, which also stars Varun Dhawan, Janhvi Kapoor, Rohit Saraf, and Maniesh Paul in key roles. Helmed by Shashank Khaitan, the film is scheduled to release in theatres on September 12.

Did You Know Neena Gupta was once left in tears by a co-star? Panchayat 4 actress reveals ‘That person took off...'
Bollywood actress Neena Gupta is one of the most celebrated actresses in the industry. She has given some amazing performances despite being in supporting roles. Not just her acting, but she also grabs headlines for speaking her heart out and wearing what she feels like without making age a barrier. Now, the Panchayat 4 actress reflected on a moment that brought her to tears, recalling how a co-star lashed out at her over an inflated ego. In a recent interview with Mid-day, Neena Gupta recalled an incident and shared, 'These days, everyone's ego is so (inflated) that you have to think a hundred times before you say something to someone. They don't like it. I had a couple of such experiences (outside of the show). Once, I said something in a friendly manner to another actor. That person took off on me. I was in tears.' The actress shared that situations like these have made her hesitant to connect with both junior and senior colleagues. She recalled working with a senior actor who delivered strong performances but lacked a sense of mutual exchange on set. Still, she noted that there are a few people who trust her intentions when she offers guidance. Neena also talked about being unconventional and shared how one has to pay the price for it. However, she called it her 'priority'. She also mentioned that her clothing choices depend on her mood, one day she might opt for a saree, and the next, she could be in shorts. Neena Gupta further reflected on her choice of clothes and mentioned that she isn't hurting anyone with it. She also acknowledged that if her choice of outfits had impacted the roles she was offered, she might have reconsidered wearing them. However, she clarified that the work she received wasn't because of any bold statements or posts, but rather due to the success of Badhaai Ho in 2018. She emphasized that in the industry, it's a strong performance in a hit film that truly opens doors. Meanwhile, Neena Gupta is gearing up for the release of her most-awaited show Panchayat 4 which will premiere on Amazon Prime Video on June 24. She will be playing the role of Manju Devi. She teased about the season in the same interview and shared that it has 'amazing humor'. Apart from her, it also stars Raghubir Yadav, Jitendra Kumar, and Sunita Rajwar, and more.

Sanya Malhotra's Striped Off-Shoulder Dress Is Perfect For Summers
Last Updated: Sanya Malhotra was recently spotted in the city in an off-the-shoulder striped dress. She paired the dress with white slides and a red bag. Sanya Malhotra is rising to prominence in the fashion industry with some simple yet elegant looks. The actress is recognised for her ability to transition between edgy pantsuits, dreamy gowns and creative designs, and her most recent outfit is yet another lesson in heightened elegance. The actress was spotted in Juhu earlier this week in a casual blue dress. For her recent look, Sanya Malhotra wore a striped dress from The PDKF store. It featured an off-shoulder neckline with a striped pattern all over the dress. A fitted clinched look around the waist gave it a structured look with a flowy design till the hem, making it perfect for the season. The actress accessorised her look with a red Cotton On Bowie Crescent Cross Body Bag, and Charles and Keith Gabine Buckled Leather Slides. Apart from this, she also wore a silver wristwatch, a beaded bracelet, and a sleek chain. She tied her hair up in a tight bun and kept her makeup simple. A few days back, Sanya posted some stills in yet another unique outfit. Sanya's beautiful rust-coloured suit exuded understated glamour. The celebrity gave out sophistication while wearing Ankita Jain's distinctive sienna three-piece outfit. The look included a sleek tube top, a figure-hugging floor-length skirt in a darker rust tone, and a sheer asymmetrical overlay that provided an ethereal element of movement. The co-ord set was made of digitally printed mesh and strategically lined for structure and comfort. She kept her accessories striking, with Liali Jewellery's spectacular gold earrings and dainty bracelets serving as the focal point of the look. Sanya's makeup appearance complemented the soft glam vibe of her dress. Her makeup was professional and radiant, with neutral eyeshadow accented with glitter, beautifully contoured cheekbones, and well-defined brows. A nude matte lip gave her the perfect pout, and her classic curls were pushed back into a neat, tidy bun for a clean look. From earthy tones and clean patterns with a classic touch, Sanya Malhotra's fashion selections reflect a striking yet sophisticated sense of style.
