Simaran Kaur breaks down on screen in a one-take emotional scene for Jamai No. 1
Popular drama Jamai No. 1 continues to engage viewers with its high-voltage storylines and emotionally charged moments. In the latest twist, the narrative takes a dramatic turn as Neel (played by Abhishek Malik) is wrongfully arrested in a shocking molestation case filed by Sayli (Sonal Vengurlekar).
Amid the chaos,
Simaran Kaur
, who portrays Neel's devoted wife Riddhi, delivers a powerful, heart-wrenching performance as she fights to prove her husband's innocence and uncover the truth.
What made this particular scene truly stand out was the emotional realism Simaran brought to it. To capture the helplessness, anger, and desperation of a woman standing up for her loved one, Simaran tapped deep into her emotional reservoir.
The intense sequence was shot in a single take—a rare feat, especially for a scene that demanded such vulnerability and emotional depth. Known for her methodical approach to acting, Simaran took time to prepare in solitude, locking herself in her room before the shot to fully absorb her character's emotional turmoil.
Simaran said, 'The moment I read the script, I knew it was going to be a challenging yet special scene.
I didn't want to 'act' it—I wanted to feel every bit of what the character was going through. It wasn't easy. I locked myself in my room before the shot, read my script, stayed quiet, and allowed myself to truly absorb the gravity of the situation. I imagined what it would be like to see someone you love being accused of something so devastating—and to feel completely powerless.
The emotional rush just took over, and I surrendered completely to the scene.
I'm glad the team captured it in one take. As an actor, these are the moments that test your limits, but also leave you deeply fulfilled.'
Simaran's raw and moving portrayal adds yet another layer of authenticity to Jamai No. 1, making it a must-watch for viewers. In the upcoming episodes, it will be interesting to see how Riddhi fights back to clear Neel's name. Will she succeed in uncovering the truth, or will Sayli and Kanchan (Papia Sengupta) manage to drive a wedge between the couple?

Dhamaal 4: This actress is going to return to join Ajay Devgn-starrer
The Dhamaal franchise is known for turning chaos into comedy gold, and now it is officially levelling up. Esha Gupta, who made a blink-and-miss but memorable cameo in Total Dhamaal (aka Dhamaal 3), is back for round four. This time, her role is rumoured to be way more substantial, and honestly, we are so here for it. Esha Gupta's comeback is the sparkle we didn't know we needed Director Indra Kumar spilled the beans, confirming her comeback and calling her both 'a great actor and a fantastic person.' According to sources close to the production, her character will bring an extra punch of glam and plot-twisting sass to the already over-the-top ride that Dhamaal 4 is shaping up to be. While the storyline is tightly under wraps (classic Dhamaal), we do know that filming is in full swing. After wrapping up a picturesque schedule at Malshej Ghat in Maharashtra, the team has now shifted the madness to Mumbai. Ajay Devgn and other cast members gave fans a peek behind the scenes with some squad selfies on Insta, captioned: 'The madness is BACK!' The vibe? Pure chaos, vintage Dhamaal energy, and a sprinkle of 2026-style masala. Ajay Devgn & Esha Gupta reunite in Dhamaal 4 — this time with real chemistry, not just a cameo! With the OG gang back, wild chases, and full-blown comedy chaos, Indra Kumar's next promises big laughs and bigger mayhem in 2026. The star-studded lineup of Dhamaal 4 Joining Ajay Devgn in this joyride are the familiar faces who made the franchise iconic: Riteish Deshmukh, Arshad Warsi, Sanjay Mishra, and Jaaved Jaaferi. But wait, the cast does not stop there. Also on board: Sanjeeda Shaikh, Anjali Anand, Upendra Limaye, Vijay Patkar, and Ravi Kishan. And if that was not enough to raise your eyebrow, hold on, Madhuri Dixit is also rumoured to have a pivotal role. When asked last year, she played coy, teasing fans by saying that while nothing was confirmed yet, she would be the first to spill the beans once it was. With a release locked for Eid 2026, Dhamaal 4 is already making noise, and with Esha Gupta's return? The chaos just got classy.

Chand Nawab's Classic Railway Blooper Resurfaces On Eid al-Adha, Internet Says 'Evergreen'
Last Updated: The clip reminded some people of actor Nawazuddin Siddique as he played Nawab's role in a Salman Khan starrer movie. Pakistani reporter Chand Nawab is again getting viral as people celebrate Eid al-Adha. Nawab became an internet sensation after a blooper of him reporting at a railway station took the internet by storm. The clip, originally from 2008, shows him repeatedly attempting to deliver a piece to the camera while being interrupted by passengers walking past. His frustrated yet humorous delivery and genuine reactions made the clip wildly popular across South Asia. The video is again being circulated on the social media platform. An X user shared the clip with the caption, 'Eid is incomplete without this video." Social Media Reaction Several social media users also reacted to the clip. While some called it 'evergreen", for some, it reminded them of actor Nawazuddin Siddique as he played Nawab's role in a Salman Khan starrer movie. Nawazuddin perfectly captured the essence of the real Chand Nawab — the quirky charm, stammering delivery, and kind-hearted spirit. The film even recreated a scene similar to the original viral railway station clip. Eid al-Adha Eid al-Adha, also known as the Festival of Sacrifice, is one of the two major Islamic festivals. It honors the willingness of Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son Ismail (Ishmael) as an act of obedience to God. The festival is being observed on June 7 this year. According to Islamic tradition, God was testing Ibrahim's faith by asking him to sacrifice his beloved son. As Prophet Ibrahim was about to obey God's order, God stopped him at the very last moment and asked him to sacrifice a ram (male ship) instead. First Published: June 07, 2025, 16:42 IST
