Aman Sharma: TV actors rarely get time for their personal life, but I never complain, it's my passion
Aman Sharma
, currently seen as the antagonist Virendra Pratap Singh in
Rishto Se Bandhi Gauri
, says being an actor in the television industry comes with its own set of challenges—especially when it comes to time and commitment.
'Well, as an actor, the biggest challenge in the TV industry is that you barely manage time for your personal life. And sometimes, if you get good other opportunities—for example, some movie or OTT—then holding a commitment to one particular thing at a time, you cannot jump onto another,' Aman shares candidly. 'But trust me, I never complain about this. It's passion and I'm living it properly, thankfully.'
Often seen playing negative roles, Aman is clear that he doesn't feel boxed in. 'I never feel that doing a negative character has got me typecast. I personally love to play villains."
At the same time, he's open to exploring other kinds of roles. 'And yes, I would love to play the hero if offered—why not?'

Actors Suraj Pratap Singh and Savi Thakur get candid about meaningful connections this friendship day
Friends are the family we choose. They shape our memories, help us grow, and offer silent strength when we need it the most. This Friendship Day, Sun Neo actors Suraj Pratap Singh and Savi Thakur share heartfelt reflections on the meaning of true friendship and how it impacts their lives on and off screen. Suraj Pratap Singh, who plays Prem in Divya Prem: Pyaar Aur Rahasya Ki Kahani, says, 'There are so many types of love, but I feel friendship is one of the most special.' He adds, 'I've never had a huge group of friends, but the few childhood friends I do have are very close to my heart. Real friendship is when someone shows up in your worst moments without being asked.' He also revealed that his portrayal of Prem has been influenced by his real-life friends. 'I'm calm and quiet in real life, unlike Prem. But I've added many traits of my friends into the character, and that's helped me perform better.' Savi Thakur, who plays Rudra in Rishto Se Bandhi Gauri, shared a similar sentiment. 'Friendship is that one bond that doesn't break, no matter what,' he said. 'My best friend is Aman Sharma, who also plays my on-screen elder brother. We were close even before the show, but working together has brought us even closer. A fight scene between us turned out so good, people on set kept praising it!' He concluded with, 'It's always more fun when you work with your best friend. I hope we do more shows together.' Their stories serve as a beautiful reminder that genuine connections often go beyond the script — they stay with us, shape us, and make every journey richer.

My Oxford Year review: An imperfect yet effective slow-burn anchored by Sofia, Corey
Adapted from Julia Whelan's bestselling novel of the same name, 'My Oxford Year' is a quiet, reflective romance that nudges you to question what really makes love meaningful, is it longevity, or is it intensity lived at the moment?For Bollywood viewers who've grown up romanticising films like 'Kal Ho Naa Ho', there's something strikingly familiar here. It's not the melodrama or the grand declarations, but the emotional core, an aching, tender love story wrapped in self-discovery, illness, timing, and Sofia Carson and Corey Mylchreest, 'My Oxford Year' follows the story of Anna, a bright and ambitious American scholar, who lands at Oxford with her future already planned. However, despite her plans, what she doesn't expect is to fall for Jamie, a charming professor, and a British man. This unexpected romance trickles down to the exploration of different meanings to love and relationship. At its core, this is a story about love, loss, and living with intention. Carson and Mylchreest are both deeply watchable. Their simmering chemistry doesn't demand attention, it earns it. Theirs is a love language of poetry, long walks, unspoken glances, and one particularly poignant moment where a simple 'thank you' is met with 'I love you too.' It's heartbreakingly beautiful. The film leans into the old-school, slow-burn charm of nerdy romance. There's palpable romantic tension, which is backed by thoughtful writing that never overplays its hand. Sofia and Corey bring a quiet depth to their roles, never making their characters feel like genre said, not everything works seamlessly for the film. The subplot involving Jamie's family dynamics feels undercooked, which, if explored, would have provided a better emotional arc to the story. Some scenes glide past moments that deserve more narrative where 'My Oxford Year' truly succeeds is in its emotional takeaway. Much like Aman from 'Kal Ho Naa Ho', Jamie's arc isn't just about romance, it's about choice, and finding beauty in impermanence. The film gently nudges you to live - deliberately, honestly, and with a full heart. Remember what Aman said? 'Jiyo, Khush raho, Muskurao. Kya Pata Kal Ho Naa Ho (Live, Be Happy, Smile, you don't know about tomorrow!)''My Oxford Year' is a romantic drama that rewards patience. It may not be perfect, but it leaves you thinking, feeling, and wondering about the kind of love that doesn't need to be loud to be unforgettable. For anyone who still believes in letters over texts and love over logic, this one might just be for you.'My Oxford Year' is now available on Netflix.- Ends3.5 out of 5 stars to My Oxford May Also Like
