Jaya Bhattacharya recalls being most underpaid actor on Kyunki: Got Rs 1000 raise
Actor Jaya Bhattacharya, who played the scheming Payal Parikh on 'Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi', recently shared her experiences with pay inequality on the show. During a recent interview, she discussed the financial challenges she her conversation with Siddharth Kannan on his podcast, Bhattacharya revealed she was 'most underpaid actor' on the sets of 'Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi'. Although her colleagues received raises, she did not experience the same financial kabhi raise hi nahi mila (I never got a raise)," she said. When Siddharth asked her if that was the case for all seven years, Jaya Bhattacharya confirmed, 'Ek baar mila tha maangne pe (I got one raise after asking for it)." She further explained that while other actors were given Rs 2000 hikes at the time, she was offered only half of that. "Jahaan sabko do-do hazaar mile the raise, wahan mujhe ek hazaar mila tha (Where everyone else got two thousand rupees as raise, I got one thousand),' she recalled. 'Mere ego ko lag gaya. Ek toh mujhe maangna pad raha hai, aur phir mujhe wahi nahi mil raha jo doosron ko mila. Kya main itni important character nahi Hoon (My ego got hurt. I have to ask for something, and then I am not getting what others got. Am I not such an important character?)?" she said that moment made her vow never to ask for a raise again, even though others around her continued to get regular increments. 'Toh maanga nahi. Baakiyon ka toh lagataar raise hota rehta tha,' she said, pointing out how others went on to become more successful than Bhattacharya was part of the original ensemble cast of 'Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu', which starred Smriti Irani in the lead role and went on to become one of Indian television's most iconic daily soaps. As Star Plus gears up to launch a reboot of the show on July 29, it is unclear if Bhattacharya will return to reprise her role.- EndsMust Watch

Aamir Khan's Team BREAKS Silence On 25 IPS Officers Visiting His Home: 'They Requested...'
Last Updated: Aamir Khan hosted IPS trainees at his Mumbai home, putting an end to speculation around a viral video. A recent video showing a luxury bus full of IPS officers entering Aamir Khan's residential compound had sparked a wave of speculation online. From theories about a high-security film project to whispers of trouble with his luxury cars, the rumour mill had a field day. However, the real reason behind the visit has now been clarified — and it's far more wholesome than expected. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Viral Bhayani (@viralbhayani) Putting an end to the buzz, a spokesperson from Aamir Khan's team shared, 'The IPS trainees of the current batch had requested a meeting with him, and Aamir Khan hosted them at his residence." This isn't the first time the actor has interacted with civil service aspirants. Ever since his 1999 classic Sarfarosh — in which he portrayed a tough and idealistic IPS officer — Khan has become an inspirational figure among police trainees. The actor has reportedly been meeting batches over the years, offering insights into his cinematic journey and broader discussions around patriotism, public service, and nation-building. Meanwhile, Aamir Khan has been basking in the success of his recent release Sitaare Zameen Par, which collected an impressive ₹165 crore nett at the Indian box office in its first month. Directed by RS Prasanna and co-starring Genelia D'Souza, the film has earned praise for its sensitive portrayal of inclusivity and neurodivergence. Next up, the superstar is heading to Australia as the Chief Guest for the 2025 Indian Film Festival of Melbourne (IFFM), to be held from August 14 to 24. The festival will host a retrospective honouring Khan's monumental contributions to Indian cinema, culminating in a special spotlight on Sitaare Zameen Par. 'I'm humbled and excited to be a part of the Melbourne Indian Film Festival," Aamir said in a statement. 'It's a festival that truly honours the spirit of Indian cinema in all of its diversity and riches. With Sitaare Zameen Par, we attempted to tell a story that embraces inclusivity and neurodivergence with sensitivity and heart, and I'm grateful that the film has touched so many people. I am eager to share my journey with Melbourne and shed light on the stories that matter." On the acting front, Aamir has a busy slate. He is set to star in Coolie, alongside superstar Rajinikanth, and also in a film directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj. Additionally, he's confirmed to headline Rajkumar Hirani's much-anticipated biopic on Dadasaheb Phalke — the father of Indian cinema. As for his production house, Aamir Khan Productions is expected to make major announcements soon regarding upcoming ventures, keeping fans eagerly waiting for what's next.

The Fantastic Four First Steps box office collection day 3: MCU film scores Rs 20 cr opening weekend in India, can't match up to Superman, F1
After James Gunn's Superman, Matt Shakman's The Fantastic Four: First Steps proves superheroes are here to stay. The Marvel film earned Rs 20.1 crore over its opening weekend at the Indian box office. While it opened on Friday at Rs 5.5 crore, it saw an increase on Saturday at Rs 7.35 crore and a slight dip on Sunday at Rs 7.25 crore across all four languages — English, Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu. The opening weekend collection of The Fantastic Four: First Steps in India isn't bad, but it pales in comparison to that of other recent Hollywood tentpoles. Superman, starring David Corenswet as the titular DC superhero, earned over Rs 25 crore, whereas Joseph Kosinski's action thriller F1 collected over Rs 21 crore at the Indian box office in its opening weekend. The first film about the Fantastic Four made under the guidance of Kevin Feige and the Walt Disney Co, also earned $118 million in North America during its first weekend. That makes it the fourth biggest opening of the year, behind A Minecraft Movie, Lilo & Stitch, and Superman, and the biggest Marvel opening since Deadpool & Wolverine grossed $211 million out of the gate last summer. Internationally, Fantastic Four made $100 million from 52 territories, adding up to a $218 million worldwide debut. The film arrived in the wake of another big superhero reboot, James Gunn's Superman, which opened three weekends ago and has already crossed $500 million globally. That film, from the other main player in comic book films, DC Studios, took second place with $24.9 million domestically in the US. Jurassic World Rebirth landed in third place in its fourth weekend with $13 million, followed by F1 with $6.2 million. The Brad Pitt racing movie also passed $500 million globally. Smurfs rounded out the top five with $5.4 million in its second weekend. First Steps is the latest attempt at bringing the superhuman family to the big screen, following lacklustre performances for other versions. The film, based on the original Marvel comics, is set during the 1960s in a retro-futuristic world led by the Fantastic Four, a family of astronauts-turned-superhumans from exposure to cosmic rays during a space mission. The family is made up of Reed Richards (Pedro Pascal(, who can stretch his body to incredible lengths; Sue Storm (Vanessa Kirby), who can render herself invisible; Johnny Storm (Joseph Quinn), who transforms into a fiery human torch; and Ben Grimm (Ebon Moss-Bachrach), who possesses tremendous superhuman strength with his stone-like flesh. The movie takes place four years after the family gained powers, during which Reed's inventions have transformed technology, and Sue's diplomacy has led to global peace. The once towering Marvel is working to rebuild audience enthusiasm for its films and characters. Its two previous offerings this year did not reach the cosmic box office heights of Deadpool & Wolverine, which made over $1.3 billion, or those of the Avengers-era. But critically, the films have been on an upswing since the poorly reviewed Captain America: Brave New World, which ultimately grossed $415 million worldwide. Thunderbolts*, which jumpstarted the summer movie season, was better received critically, but financially is capping out at just over $382 million globally. Also Read: Fantastic Four post-credits scene was directed by Russo brothers on Avengers Doomsday set, director Matt Shakman reveals Like Deadpool and Wolverine, the Fantastic Four characters had been under the banner of 20th Century Fox for years. The studio produced two critically loathed, but decently profitable attempts in the mid-2000s with future Captain America Chris Evans as the Human Torch. In 2015, it tried again (unsuccessfully) with Michael B. Jordan and Miles Teller. They got another chance after Disney's $71 billion acquisition of Fox's entertainment assets in 2019.
