I am more confident about experimenting with roles now: Mitra Gadhvi
Mitra Gadhvi Mitra with Salman Khan on the set of Sikandar 2025 has been a happening year for Mitra Gadhvi so far. While both his D-Town releases, Bhram and Mithada Maheman, fared well at the box office, he also shared screen space with Salman Khan in Sikandar. Mitra shares, 'Last year was good for me too, as people loved my character in Fakt Purusho Maate and the film did really well. I also enjoyed doing The Great Gujarati Matrimony . I am happy that the first half of 2025 has been so good for me. Mithada Maheman was a very different film, and I was eagerly waiting for Bhram to hit the screens. With Bhram doing so well and audiences accepting my character whole-heartedly, I am more confident about experimenting with roles now. I was disheartened when Bhram didn't do well initially, as we knew we had made a good film. Thankfully, things changed completely from the third day onwards. Fans sent me messages like 'This is Mitra 2.0' and 'You are not Loy (from Chhello Divas) anymore'. People have told me that they want me to play more such roles. ' The actor, who did bungee jumping in Ladakh last year, is also looking forward to taking a break. He says, 'I travel to new destinations with friends every year. In September-October, we plan to explore the beauty of Munsyari (in Uttarakhand).' 'I am keen to do an action film now' Althoughpeople have loved him incomedies like 3 Ekka, Shu Thayu? and Chhello Divas, Mitra says he is now keen to explore different genres. He shares, 'I will still do comedies, as I love the genre, but I will experiment a lot more and explore different genres now. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Free P2,000 GCash eGift UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo I am very keen to do an action film, and I also want to play a negative lead. I have always wanted to explore different genres and now, I am finally being offered a variety of roles. ' He adds, 'I am excited about Naankhatai, my upcoming Gujarati film, which has a very heartwarming story. I am also in talks for a few other exciting projects. Usually, we see one or two big hits in a year in D-Town. But this year, we have already seen five-six movies doing well at the box office, and a few more big releases are in the pipeline. 2025 promises to be the biggest year for Gujarati cinema.' 'Salman Khan is one of the most chilled out co-stars' Sharing his experience of sharing screen space with Salman Khan in Sikandar, Mitra says, 'On the first day of the shoot in Hyderabad, my first shot was with him, where he had to slap me. Initially, I was a bit nervous, but Salman sir is one of the most chilled out co-stars. He kept cracking jokes and was singing in between the shots, which made things pretty easy for me. I never felt I needed to behave in a certain way because I was working with such a big star. '

Sonakshi Sinha criticises paparazzi intrusion: Can't even go to a funeral
Actor Sonakshi Sinha has criticised the growing intrusion of paparazzi culture, calling it 'bizarre'. She pointed out how even private moments like attending a funeral are no longer respected. In a recent interview, she also opened up about battling body-shaming in the film industry and shared how she consciously tried to promote a healthy body image throughout her to Times Now, Sonakshi said, 'Look at what social media has become. Look at what the pap culture has become. You can't even go to a funeral without being clicked. I found it very bizarre. Beyond a point, you have to start ignoring these things and just live the way you want to live. But it did take a bit to get used to.'advertisementTalking about growing up without a role model, she added, 'It's a vicious circle. I think I became that person. Because while growing I didn't have any role model to look up to or somebody who tells me that it's okay to be how you are. I wanted to be somebody who projected a very healthy body image and I have done so in my entire career. Realistic.' On the work front, Sonakshi is gearing up for the release of 'Nikita Roy', a supernatural thriller directed by her brother Kussh S Sinha. The film also stars Paresh Rawal, Arjun Rampal, and Suhail Nayyar. Initially set to hit theatres on June 27 alongside Kajol's 'Maa' and Vishnu Manchu's 'Kannappa', the makers have now postponed the release to July 18, a statement shared on Instagram, the producers said the move was aimed at ensuring the film reaches a wider audience, assuring fans that 'the wait will be worth it.'- EndsMust Watch
