'During action scenes, it gets really funny if I don't have my lenses on—there's too much dust, and it gets pretty messy. But yeah, I've lived through all of that now,' he shared.

Kajol opens up about parenting Nysa and Yug with Ajay Devgn: ‘They are very much their own people'
Kajol , who tied the knot with actor Ajay Devgn in 1999, is a proud mother to two children—Nysa and Yug. While she rarely shies away from celebrating her family on social media, the actress recently opened up about her parenting journey, the bond her kids share with her and Ajay, and how motherhood changed her. When asked if her children are more attached to her or Ajay, Kajol responded with her trademark wit and warmth, saying, 'They are both my children, I want to tell you that. Ajay Devgn is stage pe nahin baitha hua hai. Bata du. So they are both, honestly, they are my kids, they are his kids, they are our kids. And I am very proud to say that they are very much their own people.' 'I am Yug': Her son's diplomatic answer stole her heart Sharing an adorable anecdote from a conversation with her son Yug, Kajol recalled asking him who he wanted to resemble more—her or Ajay. She told Pinkvilla, 'I remember asking Yug, 'Who do you want to look like? Me or papa? Tell me fast.' He looked at me like I was holding a gun to his head and very calmly said, 'I look like Yug. I am Yug.'' The Maa actress said that moment summed up her children's individuality perfectly. 'I'm very, very happy to say that I've brought up two individuals who have their own personalities, who I hope I've taught to think for themselves. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 신차장기렌트 선납금 없어도 월 20만원대부터 가능할까? 렌트데이 더 알아보기 Undo That's been my biggest teaching as a parent.' On returning home: 'I am only mom' When Kajol walks back into her home after work, the transformation is instant. 'Mein jab bhi ghar pahunchti hu toh my kids are more like 'mumma', there's the whining and the 'why didn't you do this and why didn't you do that' that starts up. Once I see them, I am only mom. There's no other character I can play at that point.' Kajol Returns in Spine-Chilling Horror Drama 'MAA' | Myth Meets Fear Reflecting on the moment she first became a mother with the birth of Nysa in 2003, Kajol said, 'When Nysa was born, I felt like that's one exam I can't fail. I think my real-life performance has taken more out of me than any film will ever in my life demand of me.' Kajol is currently promoting her upcoming horror-mythology film Maa, directed by Vishal Furia and produced by Ajay Devgn. The film is slated for release on June 27.

'Puka is dead'? Rams star's viral Instagram name finally explained and it's all his mom's fault
Kirby Lee-Imagn Images Some NFL players have cool Instagram handles. Some keep it simple. And then there's Puka Nacua, whose IG username is… @pukaizded . If you've ever scrolled past it and wondered, 'Um, is he okay?' don't worry, it's not deep. In fact, it's hilariously petty mom energy, and we're absolutely here for it. Puka Nacua explains why his IG name is 'Puka is dead' and blames his mom During an interview on the 'Games With Names' podcast, Puka finally spilled the beans on why his Instagram sounds like a doom metal band. Turns out, back in eighth grade, Puka was sneaking around with a secret Instagram account. His mom, being the all-seeing parent she is, found it. But instead of just yelling at him, she did something way more savage: 'My mom, 8th-grade year, didn't know I had Instagram. My mom found my IG & changed it; she made it 'Puka is dead' to let me know I was in trouble.' Puka's mom changed his Instagram handle 💀 She literally renamed his account to tell him he was grounded. And the best part? He kept the username. Even now, as a rising NFL star, Puka still rolls with it, like a digital badge of childhood trauma and comedy. After the interview clip made the rounds on TikTok and Twitter/X, fans couldn't get enough. Comments poured in like: Honestly, the name makes way more sense now, and we kind of love him more for keeping it real. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Buy Brass Idols - Handmade Brass Statues for Home & Gifting Luxeartisanship Buy Now Undo From being 'dead' on IG to killing it in the NFL Puka Nacua absolutely exploded in his rookie season with the Los Angeles Rams.
