Just days after his death, his elder brother Rahul Dev revealed that Mukul had been in the ICU for over eight days, and his health had deteriorated due to prolonged poor eating habits. Toward the end, he had completely stopped eating and seemed to have lost the will to live.
Mukul Dev had an impressive career spanning both Hindi and Punjabi cinema, with notable performances across genres. His comic turn in Son of Sardaar remains a fan favourite to this day. Beyond acting, he also explored screenwriting—penning the script for Hansal Mehta's critically acclaimed film Omerta, a lesser-known facet of his creative journey.

Ayesha Raza lauds Zoya Akhtar's thoughtfulness on sets of 'Dil Dhadakne Do': 'She made me feel truly valued'
Ayesha Raza praised director Zoya Akhtar for her compassionate and meticulous approach on 'Dil Dhadakne Do' and 'Made In Heaven'. Anil Kapoor shared his initial hesitance about playing a father but was encouraged by his son. Raza recently appeared in the film 'Aap Jaisa Koi'. Zoya Akhtar masterfully directed 'Dil Dhadakne Do', creating and guiding an ensemble cast comprising an array of Bollywood stars such as Anil Kapoor , Shefali Shah, Priyanka Chopra, Ranveer Singh, and Farhan Akhtar. Renowned for her sense of responsibility as a filmmaker, Zoya drew praise from cast members for her meticulous approach and genuine empathy on set. Ayesha Raza, who portrayed Indu in the film, and whose character famously garnered fame as "Indu Chachi" and "Dilli Ki Beyonce," recently shared her admiration for Zoya's thoughtful working style and careful attention to each detail while filming. Ayesha Raza expresses admiration for Zoya Akhtar During an interview with Just Too Filmy, when asked about her biggest inspiration among directors, Raza immediately named Zoya. She explained that Zoya makes feel like the most important person in the world, and that 'Dil Dhadakne Do' was among the first big films she worked on. At that time, she was relatively new and lacked much experience, but whenever she suggested a change, Zoya would simply say, 'Okay, show me how you would do it. ' Raza appreciated how Zoya allowed an actor the freedom to experiment rather than always insisting on her own ideas, which she described as remarkable and what makes Zoya so magical. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No annual fees for life UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo Ayesha Raza's memorable on-set moment from ' Made In Heaven ' To emphasize her point, Raza shared a memorable experience from the set of the Prime Video show 'Made In Heaven'. She recalled that while shooting in a tiny flat in Nizaamuddin, she was on a treadmill eating sweets. Since she couldn't keep eating sweets for every shot, she asked for a bin to spit into. However, there was no space for a bin, and even the assistant directors couldn't stand there. Zoya then took a tissue in her hand and told her to spit into that. Raza said this is how 'held' an actor can feel when a director is there for them in every possible scenario during filming. Anil Kapoor's hesitation and son's encouragement Among the memorable characters in the film was Kamal Mehra, portrayed by the veteran Anil Kapoor. During a SCREEN interview, he revealed his initial reluctance to take on the role of a father. He recalled, 'When she narrated the script to me, Ranveer Singh was on board then. I said, 'Ye kya Ranveer ke baap ka role, nahi yaar.' Because in India, you get stuck in a stereotype." Anil Kapoor credited his son, Harshvardhan Kapoor, for persuading him. Harsh had previously encouraged him to act in Slumdog Millionaire in 2007, saying, "It's okay, yaar, you've done enough of running around the trees. Do this grey character!'

How much is Battlefield 6 going to cost?
Image via EA. There has been a lot going on regarding Battlefield 6. Players are getting scammed with the promise of fake playtest, in-game character classes getting leaked, maps are getting disclosed in leaked Battlefield Lab gameplay footage, and many more. Even the community was already aware of the game's existence even before it was actually released and all thanks to the credible leakers and insiders. Now, another rumor has surrounded the internet which claims Battlefield 6 might be priced higher than usual. But is that really the case? Let's find out. EA slams all the Battlefield 6 cost rumors Some recent rumors have claimed that Battlefield 6 is going to cost more than the usual price point of general AAA titles. These rumors also got a solid base because of the current industry trends, where game publishers are leaning towards increasing the prices of their titles. AAA games have historically been stranding around the $60 price point. But after the pandemic hit the market in 2020, that price point saw a leap to around $70. Now recently, developers and publishers are thinking about another price hike. However, that's not going to happen in the case of Battlefield 6. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Instant Payment for Used Cars Cars24 - Sell Your Car Sell Now Undo In the recently held Q1 2025 earnings call of EA, CEO Andrew Wilson confirmed that Battlefield 6 is not going to cross the current $70 standard price point. This also debunks all the rumors circling around BF6's increased price of $80. Wilson went further by stating that the company will continue to look at opportunities to deliver great value to its players through 'various pricing schemes over the course of time, but no dramatic changes [are] planned yet.' However, major gaming houses like Nintendo didn't follow this step as Mario Kart World was recently released with a price tag of $80. Not only Nintendo, Microsoft has also confirmed that upcoming Xbox games are going to be priced at $80 as well, like The Outer Worlds 2. So, it's really good to see EA not following the current market trends and allowing the players to grasp more opportunities. However, the potential price point of Battlefield 6 is still going to disappoint a lot of fans as it's not going to be priced under $60 at least, which was the general price slab for AAA games before 2020.
