Abhishek Singh
a well-known actor in the Bengali film Industry is now taking the Hindi TV screens by storm. After having played the negative lead in
Rishton ka Manjha
in 2022 the actor has now been roped into the very talked about and love show Ghum Hai Kisikey Pyaar Meiin as the negative parallel lead yet again.
He plays the role of a confident good-looking officer very well-spoken but he weaves a lot of issues and creates difficult circumstances for the character Bhavika is playing. We hear he plays her senior and this is definitely going to be a character which may get a lot of hate from audiences owing to Savi's love but as an actor it is important to be versatile.
Abhishek Singh has played lead roles in several Bengali films. His upcoming project,
Jazz City
, will soon premiere on a popular OTT platform, followed by the release of
Jaisalmer Jomjomat
on another OTT platform.
Abhishek says, 'This character had shades that I would love to take on and experiment with plus the show is a hugely loved Hindi show. TV films or OTT was something I was looking at and while on one of my visits to Mumbai for a shoot, I happened to meet the makers of GHKKPM and the rest as they say is history. I have begun shooting for it and I am quite loving the newness of it all. I had done Rishton ka Manjha in 2022 so to now do this feels nice hope I get recognised and my work and efforts get their due.

I don't want to play a 50-year-old: Gaurav M Sharma on exiting Jhanak
Gaurav M Sharma Gaurav M Sharma joined Jhanak just a month ago, but his role has ended owing to the time leap that the show has just taken. While he is understandably disappointed, he is clear that he doesn't want to play an older character. 'Jhanak has taken a 20- year leap and I wouldn't want to play a 50-year-old guy. I quit Anupamaa earlier for the same reason,' he says. The actor shares that he has consistently tried to avoid being typecast, yet he's often offered grey or negative characters. He says, 'After I played the antagonist in Diya Aur Baati Hum, makers thought of me for similar roles. I wanted to break that stereotype and hence took a break. After a short hiatus, I acted in OTT shows, but later realised how TV is a mass medium and lucrative. Today, I am glad that I am offered different kinds of roles. ' He adds, 'I'm not limiting myself to just TV. I want to do more OTT and films, but TV is a great mass medium, and it helps me survive.' Currently, the show has taken a leap and Arjit Taneja and Riya Sharma are playing the lead roles. The current track focusses on how Jhanak's daughter is now 18 years old and they both live in the same village. In Kolkata, Arshi's daughter has grown up and she works as a teacher in college. Arjit Taneja plays a police inspector and he is posted in the same village where Jhanak lives with her daughter. Enjoy The New Hindi Music Video For Humnava By Gaurav Sharma And Kriti Sharma

Housefull 5 Box Office Collection Day 4: Akshay Kumar's Film Enters Rs 100-Crore Club
Last Updated: Housefull 5, directed by Tarun Mansukhani, crossed Rs 100 crore in four days. The comedy stars Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, and Abhishek Bachchan. The madness is paying off… literally! Housefull 5, the latest instalment in Bollywood's most loved comedy franchise, is raking in moolahs at the box office. Directed by Tarun Mansukhani, this star-studded laugh riot has officially crossed the Rs 100 crore mark at the box office within just four days of release. Featuring a quirky and colourful ensemble cast that includes Nargis Fakhri, Abhishek Bachchan, Jacqueline Fernandez, Riteish Deshmukh, and Soundarya Sharma, Housefull 5's collections have shown steady growth over the weekend, pushing it into the Rs 100-crore club even before it wrapped up its first week. Housefull 5 is still going strong at the box office, even as the weekend buzz settles. On its fourth day, which was a Monday, the film collected around Rs 13.1 crore, according to early estimates. Since weekdays usually see a dip, this drop was expected but the movie still held steady. Sunday was the biggest day for the film so far, with collections hitting Rs 32.5 crore, its highest single-day earning yet. With these numbers, Housefull 5 has now crossed the Rs 100-crore mark, reaching a total of Rs 101 crore in just four days. On Monday, Housefull 5 recorded a Hindi occupancy of 17.62 per cent, a decent hold for a weekday. With this, Housefull 5 has officially overtaken the India nett collection of Akshay Kumar's earlier film, Kesari Chapter 2, which had earned Rs 92.53 crore. Now, all eyes are on whether it can top the Rs 149-crore mark set by Sky Force. Housefull 5 is winning hearts and filling seats, and it's quickly turning into one of the biggest comedy hits of the year. But apart from all the laughs and star power, there's something else that has everyone talking — the film has two different endings! Yep, depending on which show you watch, you'll either see Housefull 5 A or Housefull 5 B. Each version ends differently. Director Tarun Mansukhani spoke about why they decided to do this. He said the idea came up during the writing process, and they thought it would be fun to surprise the audience. 'Sajid (Sajid Nadiadwala) sir had this idea about 30 years ago. And finally, he brought it to Housefull 5. And that was one of the most exciting things for me as a director to make a film with two different climaxes." News18 Showsha gave it 2.5 stars. An excerpt from the review read, 'What makes the movie slump even lower is the music and the number of songs pushed into the scenes and the screenplay to make the film longer. Imagine dealing with an already stretched script, and then you have to tolerate even the unnecessary dance numbers. If this is the standard of comedy we get from the Housefull franchise, then Nadiadwala has to step up and raise the bar in the next instalment." Housefull 5 unfolds on a luxury cruise, where three men — all named Jolly — find themselves in deep trouble. The twist? They're all suspects in the murder of a wealthy industrialist onboard the ship. What follows is a rollercoaster of confusion and mistaken identities in the most hilarious way possible. Housefull 5 is backed by Sajid Nadiadwala's banner, Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment, and it brings together one of the biggest ensemble casts. The film stars Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, and Abhishek Bachchan in leading roles, along with Fardeen Khan, Nana Patekar, Jackie Shroff, Ranjeet, and Johny Lever. The leading ladies include Jacqueline Fernandez, Nargis Fakhri, Sonam Bajwa, and Soundarya Sharma. Rounding out the cast are Chunky Panday and Dino Morea. First Published:
