Tejasswi Prakash recalls ‘the only time' Karan Kundrra cooked for her: ‘We were in the mood for…'
In another conversation with FilmiBeat, she revealed what Karan made for her once. 'Everyone knows Karan cooks delicious food. But he doesn't cook at home. The only time (he did)…we were in the mood of eating fries at about 3-4 am, so we sliced some potatoes and fried them. He is fond of presenting food in an appetising way. So, he ensures he presents a basic dish with some great seasonings like lemon, masalas etc. He did all that and gave me the fries to eat. That's the only thing he made for me. It's a madhouse, especially after the dogs. It's fun,' said Tejasswi.
A strong relationship is always built on mutual respect, trust, shared responsibilities, and the willingness to grow together. As such, partners cooking or looking out for each other is a positive sign. Sharing responsibilities or chores helps enhance relationships further, said Dr Santosh Bangar, senior consultant psychiatrist, Gleneagles Hospitals Parel Mumbai.
'Supporting each other by doing little things can create a sense of belonging and boost happiness. Even a little push or encouragement can boost your partner's confidence and ease out any apprehensions,' said Dr Bangar.
Sharing or expressing thoughts, feelings, and concerns with your partner through such gestures can significantly lighten up mental load and reduce stress, the expert said.
'This approach could provide emotional support and stability as it shows comfort and understanding. It also allows couples to spend quality time and always have a safe space in each other, which can help create deep connections,' said Dr Bangar.

Mouni Roy opens up about being typecast; says 'When I did Kyunki, people said the girl next door can't play a glam part'
From television's favourite bahu to a Bollywood star, Mouni Roy has carved a space for herself in the entertainment industry through versatility. Beginning her career with Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, Mouni quickly became a household name. Over the years, she has been part of some of the biggest TV hits, including Devon Ke Dev… Mahadev where she played Sati, and the hugely popular Naagin franchise. Transitioning to films, she proved her talent with roles in Gold, Made in China, and even a big-budget spectacle like Brahmāstra. But her journey has been far from easy. In a recent interview with News18, the actress spoke about she has always been typecast in the industry. Mouni admits she has been typecast from the very start. 'I have been typecast since the beginning of my career. When I did Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, people said the girl next door can't play a glam part. When I did a few reality shows, dance reality shows, they said I was too glamorous. When I did Sati, they said I was too Indian. When I did Naagin, it was 'she can only do fantasy fiction or mythological shows.' That's something I've always dealt with, and it doesn't really bother me. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 10 Best Mattresses by Consumer Reports (Here's What You May Not Want to Miss) QuestionHero Learn More Undo It doesn't matter whether you call me glamorous, stylish, or anything else – like saying she's good for a certain kind of role.

As long as – whether it's glam, outlandish, girl next door, or dancing – if you can see that I'm putting in my hard work and 100%, and it resonates with the audience – that's my take away from it.' This ability to embrace every label and still push her boundaries has kept Mouni's career evolving. When asked what kind of roles she wants to explore next, she revealed, 'I'm hungry – a greedy actor, in the right sense – because I want to be part of great scripts, good storytelling and work with different, like-minded people. I also want to take on roles I haven't done before; that's very important to me.' Beyond acting, Mouni's artistic side shines through in her dance performances and music videos, which have enjoyed wide popularity. With a filmography that spans across television, films, OTT, and music, she continues to reinvent herself – proving that no stereotype can limit true talent.

Bhopal Doctor Conned Out Of Rs 10 Lakh On Pretext Of Getting Entry In Bigg Boss, Files FIR
Mumbai: Dr Abhineet Gupta from Bhopal was conned out of Rs 10 lakh on the pretext of getting entry in the popular television reality show "Bigg Boss". The dermatologist has filed an FIR at the Oshiwara Police Station in Mumbai. Previously, an FIR was filed by Abhineet in Bhopal. During a recent press conference in Mumbai, the doctor revealed that back in 2022, a man named Karan Singh urged Abhineet to try for "Bigg Boss". He claimed to have a good identity with the makers. "He talked about giving one crore rupees, but I said that I do not have that much money. Then he went to Mumbai, and he made me talk to his colleagues on the phone. He talked about giving 60 lakh rupees and told me to pay in cash. He called me to Mumbai and arranged a meeting with Harish Shah, Senior Vice President of Endemol Company." Next, Karan asked Abhineet for money, and he transferred 10 lakh rupees to the accused. However, when the list of contestants of "Bigg Boss season 16" was announced, Abhineet's name was not in it. When he questioned Karan about this, he said that Abhineet would enter mid-show as a wild card. But after the season ended, Karan changed his statement, saying that he would make him participate in the next season. However, this time as well, nothing happened. "When season 17 also ended, I asked Karan Singh to return the 10 lakh rupees. But he kept making me run around. Finally, I went to the police to lodge a complaint, but there too it was delayed a lot, and after almost two years, the FIR was registered with great difficulty," Abhineet said. The police have registered a case against the accused under section 420 of the IPC for fraud. Abhineet stated that he wants everyone to be aware of people like Karan so that they do not end up getting scammed like him.
