Aadesh Chaudhary: Fame can be overwhelming, staying grounded is the key to survive
In a recent conversation with The Times of India TV, Aadesh opened up about his journey in the entertainment industry, how he manages the pressures of fame, and what keeps him grounded.
'Balancing personal life with a demanding public career can be challenging,' says Aadesh. 'I prioritize my time, set boundaries, and make sure to take breaks to recharge. It's essential to maintain a healthy work-life balance to avoid burnout.'
Having spent more than a decade in the industry, Aadesh has witnessed the highs and lows that come with stardom. 'Fame can be overwhelming,' he admits, 'but I've learned to navigate it over time. It's crucial to stay grounded and focused on the craft, rather than getting caught up in the glamour.'
Aadesh is also keen on exploring different facets of the creative world. 'I'm always looking to explore new areas of entertainment, such as writing or producing.

It's exciting to venture into uncharted territory and discover new passions,' he shares.
When asked about the changing landscape of Indian entertainment, Aadesh observes, 'The industry is constantly evolving. In the next five years, I see it becoming more diverse and inclusive. With the rise of streaming platforms, content creation will become more democratized, and new voices will emerge.'
He adds that two major shifts—'greater representation and more opportunities for emerging talent'—could lead to richer, more innovative narratives.
Speaking about his process of choosing work, Aadesh explains, 'When choosing a project, I look for compelling stories, talented collaborators, and opportunities for growth. It's essential to be selective and choose projects that resonate with me emotionally and creatively.'
Acknowledging the competitive nature of the entertainment industry, Aadesh says, 'Competition is indeed a reality. While it can be challenging, it also drives creativity and innovation. Ultimately, it's about staying true to one's vision and persevering through the obstacles.'

War 2 day 1 box office: Hrithik-Jr. NTR spy thriller opens at ₹20 crore
War 2 day 1 box office Collection: The much-anticipated movie War 2, starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr. NTR, hit theatres today, on August 14. The movie is a part of the Spy Universe from Yash Raj Films, which has already produced successful films like Tiger 3 and Pathaan. The latest instalment in the YRF Spy Universe opened strong, raking in double-digit earnings from its early morning and morning screenings. The film, eyeing an estimated ₹30 crore opening, kicked off Thursday on a high note, drawing strong box office numbers from the very start. War 2 movie box office day 1 prediction: War 2 vs other films In Hyderabad and Telugu states, where Jr. NTR's fame is at its height, the public is incredibly excited about War 2. The movie's advance bookings have shattered previous records. Telangana alone has reserved tickets for Rs 2.34 crore, while Hyderabad alone has reserved tickets worth Rs 2.57 crore. Advance bookings for the Telugu and Hindi versions totalled Rs 3.5 crore and Rs 6 crore, respectively. The price of the Tamil version was Rs 10 lakh. On its first day, War 2 is expected to bring in about Rs 25-30 crore in India and Rs 90-100 crore worldwide, according to experts. It can bring in over Rs 30 crore in Telugu states. This movie has the potential to become Hrithik's highest opening, surpassing the 53.35 crores earned by his previous feature, War. With 14,500 showings and 5102 screens, War 2 is expected to be a huge hit at the box office. Final day 1 advance booking of War 2 at the Indian box office War 2 made a respectable 21 crores at the Indian box office (excluding blocked seats) with 7.54 lakh+ tickets sold, according to the final advance booking update for day 1.

EXCLUSIVE! Coolie Vs War 2 morning occupancy report: Rajinikanth starrer gets bumper start, Hrithik Roshan-Jr NTR's biggie opens on a good note
The Hrithik Roshan-Jr NTR starrer has recorded 50 per cent occupancy, while the Lokesh Kanagaraj directorial took a bumper start with 70 per cent occupancy across the country Today, the entertainment industry witnessed one of the biggest clashes in the history of Indian cinema with Coolie and War 2. Both pan-India biggies, which boast of a huge ensemble cast, have garnered a response among the cinegoers. As per trade expert Ramesh Bala, the Hrithik Roshan-Jr NTR starrer has recorded 50 per cent occupancy, while the Lokesh Kanagaraj directorial took a bumper start with 70 per cent occupancy across the country. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD Since both films released on a normal working Thursday, it would be interesting to see how it perform in the evening and night shows, which can play ca rucial role in getting a healthy opening day at the box office. Talking about the Coolie, the movie also features Nagarjuna Akkineni, Soubin Shahir, Upendra, Shruti Haasan, Sathyaraj, Aamir Khan, Rachita Ram, Reba Monica John, Junior MGR, Kanna Ravi, Monisha Blessy, Kaali Venkat, and Charle in prominent roles. On the other hand, _War 2_, which is helmed by Ayan Mukerji, features Kiara Advani and Ashutosh Rana in key roles. Firstpost gave the film 2.5 stars in its review and wrote, 'War 2 showed promise, not as a coherent story, but at least dumbed-down, cheerful fun when it began. But just like Tiger 3, it began to take itself way too seriously when all it needed to do was guffaw at its silliness. Some endless conversations and combats barely serve any purpose. The sheer disappointment of the enterprise fails its two competent leading men, that have shone in masala stories before. And War 2 is not the end, we have more films in the spy universe coming in. One happens to be Alpha and then whatnot. Shah Rukh Khan once rightly said in an interview, only the dead have seen the end of War.' STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD
