‘What did I say!' Check Rana Daggubati's reaction when he realised he was abusing Venkatesh in Rana Naidu Season 2
As fans eagerly await the release of Rana Naidu Season 2, actor Rana Daggubati shared a hilarious behind-the-scenes moment he witnessed with his maternal uncle, Venkatesh Daggubati, during the shooting of the show. Talking to The Indian Express' SCREEN, Rana said he didn't realise until much later that he was abusing his mama on screen in the first season of Rana Naidu. 'Shit! What did I say!' was the actor's first reaction when he learnt what his Hindi dialogues meant. 'Since it was Hindi, I didn't understand much of what I said in part 1. So I thought it was okay. It was worse when I was dubbing it in Telugu,' Rana shared. However, the actor said that since both of them were in 'very definite attire and look,' they were all fine. 'We're licensed to do anything,' he laughed. The 'Baahubali' actor said that ever since he became an actor, he had always thought he would work with his uncle Venkatesh. 'From the time I made it as an actor, I always thought I'd work with him at some point of time. I was really looking forward to what that project would be,' he told SCREEN. 'As a co-actor, he's pretty phenomenal and charges us to be better each time,' Rana said, sharing his experience of working with his uncle in Rana Naidu. The actor also added that the Netflix India series is 'something unique that came our way. It's not something he or I have done before.' 'These characters can just go on because they started from such opposite ends that you can travel with them across multiple seasons,' he added. Rana Daggubati also acknowledged that Rana Naidu is 'the only 'pan-Indian' show,' as his co-star Abhishek Banerjee rightly pointed out. Fans can watch Rana Naidu Season 2 on Netflix. The OTT giant will begin streaming it on Friday, June 13.

‘Kapil Sharma was being exploited by Comedy Circus, he didn't have an identity': Navjot Singh Sidhu played central role in comedian's success
Former cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu participated in the reality show Bigg Boss in 2012. He recently shared that the only reason he did the show was money. Sidhu shared that his career as politician wasn't lucrative enough for him to build his dream house in Amritsar. 'Bigg Boss gave a lucrative offer,' said Navjot Singh Sidhu. He will soon return on Kapil Sharma's show on Netflix. He shared a detailed vlog on his YouTube channel, where he also opened up about his Bigg Boss stint. 'People cannot go to Bigg Boss and comeback without spoiling their reputation. However, I took up that challenge because I needed money to build a house in Amritsar. I wouldn't have been able to build a house with what I earned from being a politician,' he said. He added, 'Bigg Boss was an opportunity for me to earn money. They had a very lucrative offer. I told them my charges for the first month, second month and third month. However, they could afford me just for a month. And I was out after the first month. In that one month's time I never said a word against anybody in the house. I managed to return from the house without harming my reputation in the society. This opened many doors for me.'

Navjot Singh Sidhu said he was the only reason behind Kapil Sharma getting an independent show after being exploited in Comedy Circus. He said, ''Kapil Sharma rose to fame after he appeared in the show Laughter Challenge. Later, he was exploited in Comedy Circus, he didn't have an identity of his own. Kapil Sharma came to me and said, 'Paaji, I have a request. If you will agree to be part of my show, they will give me an independent show.' I was like who, 'He said Raj Nayak sahab'. Raj Nayak was the head of Colors back then. He wanted me to be the judge of the show. He wanted me as he wanted to increase the channel's TRP. We met over breakfast and I agreed to do it.' A few days ago, the makers of The Great Indian Kapil Show took to the official Instagram handle of Netflix and shared the news about Navjot Singh Sidhu's return to the comedian's show after a gap of nearly six years. The news has created excitement in fans. The former cricketer was part of Kapil Sharma's shows on Colors and Sony Entertainment Television from 2012 to 2019.
