Hunar Hali Gandhi on teaching Sanskrit to her young co-star Aan Tiwari on the sets of Veer Hanuman; says ‘It isn't an easy language, but he's always eager to learn'

Veer Hanuman continues to capture hearts with its divine storytelling and impactful performances. While the epic unfolds powerfully on-screen, it's the off-screen camaraderie that's equally heartwarming.
Actress Hunar Hali Gandhi, who recently joined the mythological series as Kaikeyi, has embraced a unique off-screen role — mentoring her young co-star Aan Tiwari, who plays the young Lord Hanuman, in Sanskrit.
Known for her affinity for Sanskrit, Hunar helps Aan with challenging pronunciations and explains the deeper meanings of verses. She ensures he not only delivers his dialogues fluently but also comprehends the spiritual and emotional depth of his character.
Their learning moments between takes are a mix of fun, discovery, and dedication.
Speaking about their bond, Hunar shares, 'I've always loved Sanskrit, and although it isn't an easy language, especially for someone of Aan's age, what's encouraging is he's always eager to learn. Aan is an incredibly sincere and curious child.'
She adds, 'Watching him put in so much effort makes me want to pitch in and help him. We've developed a sweet little routine where I quiz him on meanings or help break down lines — it's turned into something we both look forward to.'

For Hunar, the show has become even more special through this newfound connection. 'Being part of Veer Hanuman is in itself a divine experience, but being able to form a bond with Aan offscreen while tutoring him or singing with him in between shots has made it even more fulfilling.'
This behind-the-scenes bond not only reflects the collaborative spirit on set but also highlights how the show nurtures both performance and personal growth.

The Great Indian Kapil Show 3: Krushna Abhishek and Kiku Sharda take a dig at American President Donald Trump; Kiku says 'Yehi iska main kaam hai pehle jhagda karata hai phir sulah...'

The Great Indian Kapil Show Season 3 kicked off on a high note with Bollywood superstar Salman Khan gracing the premiere episode. Since then, the show has continued to impress with an exciting lineup of guests. In last week's episode, the team welcomed the much-talked-about duo from Bollywood and politics, Parineeti Chopra and Raghav Chadha . The episode turned into a laughter-packed affair as the couple shared fun stories and revealed some interesting things about each other. However, the highlight of the episode was the hilarious satire by Krushna Abhishek and Kiku Sharda , where they spoofed American President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un, leaving the audience in splits with their comic timing and witty punches. Raghav and Parineeti both could not control their laughter when Krushna and Kiku entered the stage dressed as Donald and Kim Jong-Un. They laughed their hearts out at their gag and thoroughly enjoyed it. During the gag, the writers of The Great Indian Kapil Show's team only took a dig at his tariff plans but also about his ceasefire announcements. A clip which is going viral on social media shows Kiku as Kim Jong-Un taking a dig at Krushna dressed as Trump. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Shaping the Energy Change at Siemens Energy Siemens Energy Read More Undo Krushna Aka Trump calls Raghav America's Saadu bhai and asks him to be his guru.

To this, Kiku, dressed as Kim Jong Un, jumps in and replies, "Nahi nahi, jhagda bhi yehi karayega... yehi toh iska main kaam hai — pehle jhagda karvata hai, phir sulah karvata hai!" Kiku's hilarious punch gets a roaring applause from everyone and Archana Puran Singh even gives him a standing ovation. There were other hilarious moments which the episode worth watching. In one of the sequences, Raghav Chadha was seen walking barefoot.

They have Raghav's shoes in their hands and demand money in barter for the shoes. They inform Kapil that Raghav is their jiju (brother-in-law) and they are here to perform the 'joota churayi' ritual. They enter the stage saying 'East or west Raghav jiju is the best'. When Kapil reprimands them for their behaviour, Krushna aka Mona says, "Kapil is jealous as Parineeti is here with her husband and his flirting skills are on flight mode.

‘War 2' actor Hrithik Roshan's luxurious Juhu home is packed with art, games, and personal touches; sea‑inspired design adds to charm

Hrithik Roshan fans are eagerly awaiting his upcoming film 'War 2', co‑starring Jr NTR and Kiara Advani . The action‑packed thriller is set to release on 14 August, and audiences across India are eager for the next big chapter in the YRF spy universe. But away from the screen's high‑speed chases and intense action, Hrithik enjoys a very different kind of luxury, his stunning seaside home in Juhu, Mumbai. Let's step inside and explore his dream space. Prime location with stunning ocean views Hrithik's dream home is located on the Juhu‑Versova Link Road, one of the most desirable addresses in Mumbai. Known for its excellent connectivity, this stretch links easily to other parts of the city while being close to shops, office spaces, and malls. The surroundings are well maintained, adding to the charm of living in such a prime spot. The biggest advantage of this location is the breathtaking view of the Arabian Ocean. From the moment you walk into the apartment, the vast blue water becomes a part of the backdrop, creating a sense of calm and openness that city living often lacks. Massive space spread across three floors As reported by Republic World, Hrithik's home is far from an average Mumbai apartment. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like When Knee Pain Hits, Start Eating These Foods, and Feel Your Pain Go Away (It's Genius) Read More Undo Spanning a huge 38,000 square feet, the property occupies the 14th, 15th, and 16th floors of Mannat Apartments. What makes it even more unique is how it came together, the home was created by combining 46 smaller flats, each about 800 square feet. The result is a sprawling sky‑high space with enough room for every corner to have its own personality. Breezy vibes straight from the sea According to Architectural Digest, the airy feel of the home isn't just down to clever design. The fresh sea breeze from the Arabian Sea drifts straight into the apartment, giving it a light, open atmosphere throughout the day. One of the highlights of the space is the large den next to the living room. This is not just a quiet corner, it's where Hrithik spends quality time with his two sons. The sea air, the natural light, and the relaxed design make it a favourite hangout spot in the home. A creative hub for work and play The den also doubles as Hrithik's private office, filled with bound scripts and books on filmmaking. Adding a creative edge is a life‑size graffiti mural by Daku, often called the 'Banksy of India', painted on a white brick wall. On weekends, Hrithik transforms this wall into a big screen, projecting films for a cosy home‑cinema experience. He often shares glimpses of his gym and living room on social media, especially during workout sessions with his mother. Designed with the sea, travel and family in mind The design and colour palette of the home draw inspiration from the sea, with themes of travel and family woven in. As Architectural Digest revealed, Hrithik even travelled to Dubai to select the larger furniture pieces himself. Though the house boasts elegant décor, it remains child‑ and pet‑friendly. Artworks and artefacts, including a Desmond Lazaro quadriptych and a panel of vintage architectural blueprints, bring character to the space.

In such times, it's not just about providing help - it's about offering hope. It is about standing by one another and helping with humanity and empathy and care. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Why Are Learners Switching to This Language App?
