Bhabhiji Ghar Par Hain actor Shubhangi Atre lost her ex-husband Piyush Poorey in April, this year. He passed away after a prolonged battle with liver cirrhosis, just two months post their divorce. Now, in a recent interview, she revealed that the doctors had already given a warning to them about the possible risks, if he didn't make changes in his lifestyle and overcome his alcohol addiction.
During a conversation with a reporter from Viral Bhayani's team, Shubhangi was seen getting visibly emotional while talking about Piyush. She said, 'Main yahi kahungi ke bahot hi unfortunate tha… But, I think it is because of addiction. Doctors ne bahot pehle hi bol diya tha ke agar woh apna lifestyle change nahi karenge, toh yeh ho sakta hai (I will just say that it was very unfortunate. Doctors had told him earlier that if he didn't change his lifestyle, this might happen. So, I knew that it might happen, but I had no idea that it would happen so early).'

Forests over cities: Bhabhiji actress Shubhangi Atre on why nature is her true escape
Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain actress Shubhangi Atre calls herself an avid traveller, and she says the credit goes to her parents. 'I inherited my love for travel from my dad!' she laughs. 'Both my mom and dad love to travel, and I grew up watching them explore new places with joy. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now I've always had a strong desire to see different places, meet new people and experience different cultures. I guess it's in my genes.' Shubhangi makes it a point to travel at least once a year, sometimes more. 'It used to be tough earlier, but now I get enough time off from my current show to plan short or long trips. Life is too short and there's so much to see. I love to travel and I manage to balance work and leisure well,' she adds. Sharing her travel mantra, she says, 'Enjoy the journey. Don't travel just to tick places off your list. I enjoy solo trips when I need peace. I carry my books, play calming meditation music and head to quiet natural spots. I don't enjoy cities, I love forests, wildlife and beaches. Nature is my happy place. For me, travel is about relaxation, not sightseeing. Living in Mumbai, we face chaos and traffic,' she says. So what's always in her bag? 'Comfortable clothes, a good book and my mini speaker. I can't travel without music.' As for future plans, Shubhangi reveals, 'A bike trip from Manali to Ladakh tops my list. I also want to visit all the Buddhist monasteries in that region and explore tiger reserves and natural spots.' Check how Shubhangi Atre gets ready for Angoori Bhabhi's role

And I'm just happy and proud to have gotten the role, and I'm grateful for what the role has contributed to my life and to my character.

Palak Tiwari calls mom Shweta Tiwari a ‘strong woman'; says ‘I knew whatever I would do in life I will have her backing'
Palak Tiwari , who is steadily making her mark in Bollywood, recently opened up about the deep influence her mother Shweta Tiwari has had on her life and career. Coming from a family of strong women, Palak spoke to Mashable India about how their resilience shaped her outlook. "My mom being an overachiever takes the pressure off me. In my family, we have the heritage of strong women. My nani, then my mom, all the elder women in the family are overachievers," Palak said. She further recalled how her grandmother stood by her mother during her early career struggles. "My nani was a clerk at a law office. She was very intelligent. When my mom wanted to pursue acting, everyone was against her but my nani supported her. That reduces the pressure. My mother was raised by a strong woman and my mom is a strong woman. So, I knew no matter what I do, I will have my mother's backing." Sharing a light-hearted memory from her childhood, Palak added, 'My mom's eyes are enough to scare me. She only slapped me once. Main khane ke liye bahut natak karti thi. Main khana nahi khaati thi. We had a dog, Tobby, who's no more with us. He was young then. He would eat everything. Mom gave Bournvita, and she told me to drink it but instead Tobby licked it. My mom slapped me hard, but that was the first and last time. She was scared of her nail extension and Tobby also got stressed. ' Shweta Tiwari, known for her iconic role in Kasautii Zindagii Kay, has built a successful television career, navigating both professional highs and personal challenges with grace and strength. Meanwhile, Palak entered the industry with her Bollywood debut in Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan, starring opposite Salman Khan, and is now steadily establishing herself. Their beautiful bond is a perfect example of love, support, and strength between a mother and daughter.
