Hindustan Times15-05-2025

2025 has been an exciting year for audiences who were introduced to many new star kids at the movies. Raveena Tandon's daughter Rasha Thadani made her debut opposite Ajay Devgn's nephew Aaman Devgan in Azaad, whereas Saif Ali Khan's son Ibrahim Ali Khan began his acting journey with Nadaaniyan. But two star kids who have been trending online even before beginning their careers in Bollywood are Akshay Kumar's nieces — his sister Alka Bhatia's daughter Simar Bhatia, and his sister-in-law Rinke Khanna's daughter Naomika Saran. While we already know that Simar is gearing up for her big Bollywood debut, it seems like Naomika might also enter the industry soon.

On the evening of May 15, Rinke Khanna's daughter and Rajesh Khanna-Dimple Kapadia's granddaughter Naomika Saran was snapped stepping out of Dinesh Vijan's production house Maddock Films' office. The star kid walked out in style but soon ran back inside and hid behind the gate. What's interesting is that right behind Naomika was Amitabh Bachchan's grandson Agastya Nanda, who began his acting journey in 2023 opposite Shah Rukh Khan's daughter Suhana Khan with The Archies. Agastya looked at Naomika, hidden behind the gate, before proceeding to walk out. Soon, rumours began to circulate, suggesting that Naomika might be in talks for her debut film alongside Agastya, who is also Simar Bhatia's co-star in her first film.

In the comment section below, many showered love on the pair, who might work together. For instance, one social media user gushed, 'They are so cute 😍😍', whereas another pointed out, 'Wow.. this is what we called perfect match.' Meanwhile, others gushed over Naomika's resemblance to her late grandfather Rajesh Khanna. One such netizen stated, 'Rajesh khanna in female version 😍😍😍😍🔥🔥🔥🔥,' whereas another claimed, 'She resembles a lot like Rajesh Khanna.... particularly side face ...!!' Agastya, on the other hand, was compared to his grandfather Amitabh Bachchan and his uncle (mama) Abhishek Bachchan. A comment read, 'Young big b vibes,' whereas another netizen claimed, 'He's like his uncle—just mildly upgraded and easier on the eyes.'
We'll have to wait for confirmation about Naomika's possible Bollywood debut opposite Agastya to be sure. Meanwhile, Agastya is busy gearing up for Sriram Raghavan's next release Ikkis, which will mark Simar's debut film.

Wamiqa Gabbi admits pay disparity exists in Bollywood: ‘Reasoning is that a male actor can pull more audience'

Actor Wamiqa Gabbi called out the pay gap in the film industry. In a new interview, she questioned why male actors' fees aren't scrutinised or reduced when their films flop, while women often bear the brunt of criticism and pay cuts. Also read: Here's how Shah Rukh Khan reacted when Wamiqa Gabbi told him 'nas kat lungi' at first meeting During a conversation with Zoom, Wamiqa spoke about the issue of pay disparity in the industry, saying women continue to be paid less than their male counterparts. 'The fact that pay disparity exists doesn't consume me, but there is this feeling that you're a woman and you will be paid less and that is how it is. The reasoning is that a male actor can pull that much audience, but you can't make a film without the heroine. I don't understand the logic behind this. Sometimes, they take a hero and pay a lot of money, and then the film doesn't work. Why doesn't their fees get affected?" Wamiqa said. And the actor is finding her own way to fight back against the pay gap. She added, 'I want to find different ways to earn that money. I wish to do it in a creative way where I feel happier and decrease that pay gap for myself. I can't deny this fact that pay disparity is there. Not every 'male-centric' film can do without the female lead." Wamiqa was recently seen in Bhool Chuk Maaf opposite Rajkummar Rao. The film also stars Seema Pahwa, Sanjay Mishra and Ishtiyak Khan. It is produced by Dinesh Vijan under his banner Maddock Films. Bhool Chuk Maaf revolves around a soon-to-be-married man who realises that he is stuck in a time loop and keeps reliving the day before his wedding. Directed by Karan Sharma, the romantic comedy film was released on May 23. Next, she will be seen in Dil Ka Darwaza Khol Na Darling, Bhooth Bangla and Goodachari 2.
