The makers of 'Stolen' released the trailer of the film on Wednesday. Starring Abhishek Banerjee in the lead, it's an investigative crime thriller.

Meet actress, 49, who worked with Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan, went jobless for 8 years, now she rules the digital space, her name is...

Bollywood's timeless diva, who once lit up screens with Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan, confessed she faced an unexpected halt in her career. Despite delivering multiple hits, Sushmita Sen went through nearly 8 years without any role offers. A resurfaced clip from her old interview has left fans shocked, as she admitted she had to gather courage and directly call OTT platforms for work. The viral video is from her 2023 chat with Midday India, where the actress recalled the tough years that tested her patience and resilience. What did Sushmita say in her own words? Sushmita did not hide behind glamour or pretence. She revealed, 'Mera naam Sushmita Sen hai. Main actor hoon, hua karti thi waise. Aur main wapas aakar kaam karna chahti hoon. Mujhe madad ki zarurat hogi kyunki maine 8 saal kaam nahi kiya aur yeh bahut lamba waqt hai.' The actress further shared that during those 8 silent years, not a single filmmaker or platform approached her. 'Maine logon se kaam maanga, unhe phone kiya, taaki unhe pata chale ki main bhookhi hoon, mujhe kaam karna hai, main kaam maang rahi hoon,' she admitted. Did OTT platforms respond? Her honesty did not go unheard. After her calls, Netflix, Prime Video, and Hotstar heads invited her for meetings. These interactions eventually paved the way for her digital entry. In 2020, Sushmita made a resounding comeback with Disney+ Hotstar's hit web series Aarya. The show not only revived her career but also proved that she could still carry a project with unmatched screen presence. What was her last film before her comeback? Before stepping into the OTT space, Sushmita's last appearance on the big screen was in 2015 with the Bengali film Nirbaak. After that, she took a long pause, almost vanishing from the industry. With Aarya, the actress reclaimed her place in entertainment, and today, the viral clip has become a reminder of how even the brightest stars sometimes have to start from scratch.

Playing villain is so much fun: Piper Perabo

Agency: PTI Last Updated: Los Angeles, Aug 17 (PTI) 'Covert Affairs" star Piper Perabo says essaying a negative character in spy thriller series 'Butterfly" has been a 'fun and relaxing" experience for her. Perabo portrayed the role of Juno, the evil head of a private intelligence corporation in South Korea, in the Prime Video series. Also starring Daniel Dae Kim, the series made its debut on the streamer on August 13. 'Playing the villain is so much fun…I think the villains in Hollywood keep that secret to themselves so that they don't have to give up the great parts," the 48-year-old actor told Variety in an interview. 'I think it's so relaxing. The getaway car pulls up to you, there's no running. You have an endless supply of weapons. It's very relaxing," she added. Directed by Kim Jin-min, Jann Turner, and Kitao Sakurai, the series comprised six episodes and got mixed responses from the audience. It is based on the graphic novel series of the same name, and follows David (Kim), Juno's former partner, who comes out of hiding to save his daughter, Rebecca (portrayed by Reina Hardesty). The back story follows David leaving Rebecca in Juno's care nine years earlier, after one of his missions goes wrong and he has no option but to fake his death. Speaking of character, Perabo said, 'I like how clear Juno's sense of purpose is." 'I always think of her like when you were a kid and you're on the athletic fields and there's this parent on the sidelines who's screaming at their kid and just humiliating them and pushing them. That's who I think Juno is," she added.
