Seeing Janhvi Kapoor and Khushi Kapoor being trolled for their appearance was painful for half-sister Anshula: ‘They are the bravest girls'
Anshula Kapoor is the daughter of film producer Boney Kapoor and his first wife Mona Shourie. In a recent interview, Anshula opened up about the deep bond she shares with her half-sisters, actors Khushi Kapoor and Janhvi Kapoor, whom she connected with in tragic circumstances as an adult. Anshula and her brother, Arjun Kapoor, reconnected with their father after the death of his second wife, Sridevi. In the wake of the tragedy, they became close with their half-siblings, and they now share a warm bond. Anshula, who is quite active on social media, recently appeared on the Amazon Prime Video show The Traitors. In a recent interaction, she spoke about the trolling and harsh criticism that Janhvi and Khushi face on the internet. Anshula told Pinkvilla, 'When it comes to the brutality of the outside world, it is harsh. It's not easy to see someone you love being trolled. It doesn't matter if it is your sister or any loved one, it's not easy to have that emotion work through you.' A post shared by Anshula Kapoor (@anshulakapoor) Drawing a clear line between constructive criticism and trolling, Anshula shared, 'There's a way to give criticism when it comes to work; to help in terms of what we call positive criticism. But when criticism becomes about everything else, it is actually trolling and it is no longer criticism.' Anshula also shed light on how unfair it is for young individuals, especially those in their teens or 20s, to face unwarranted negativity. She added, 'It is extremely unfair for people to judge somebody they don't know, when they go personal. It is very unfair for someone in their 20s or their teenage years, to go through something like that when it's unwarranted.' A post shared by Anshula Kapoor (@anshulakapoor) Anshula went on to add that she is proud of her sisters' strength and kindness and said, 'They are the bravest and kindest girls that I've had the pleasure of knowing. And they truly are all heart.' Earlier this week, Anshula announced that she had gotten engaged to her partner Rohan Thakkar. He proposed to her in New York, after dating for over two years.

Meet actor who became famous villain, gave competition to Ajay Devgn, Salman Khan, quit acting to become Maulana, his name is...
There are many times when actors and actresses gain a lot of fame, name, and money in the showbiz industry. However, they then vanish into thin air following their stardom. A similar case happened when Arif Khan made his debut and then disappeared. When Ajay Devgn's Phool Aur Kaante was released in 1991, one character that garnered attention was the villain Rocky, played by Arif Khan. Arif continued to act in several more films, but after spending a few years in the industry, he realized that his true calling lay elsewhere. Arif Khan Left Bollywood to Become a Maulana Taking to Instagram, Arif once shared a video of himself and captioned it, 'Janab Arif Khan Sahab (Ex-Bollywood Actor).' In the video, he introduces himself and shares that he turned to a life of spirituality. In the video, Arif Khan said, 'You must have seen my film Phool Aur Kaante from 1991. It was a hugely popular film in India. That was my and Ajay Devgn's first film. I was full of youthful energy at 23 years old. After that, I worked in 14-15 more films and TV serials. I had a life full of respect, wealth, and fame. But later, Allah showed me the right path, my life changed, and today, I am here (sic).' How Arif Khan Became a Maulana in Tablighi Jamaat Before switching fields, Arif did various prestigious films including Hooni Ilaaka, Veergati, Muskurahat, Mohra, Mohabbat, and Jang. Not just movies, Arif also tried his luck in television and featured in TV shows. Despite some good performances, Arif failed to establish himself as an actor in the industry. It was during this time that he realized his calling was different. He opted to walk out of the film industry and took a keen interest in spirituality. He chose to devote his life to spirituality by becoming a Maulana with the Tablighi Jamaat, dedicating himself to practicing Islam and spreading its teachings. Why Arif Khan Left Bollywood In one of his interviews, Arif revealed that he felt restless while working in the showbiz industry. Not just that, he also started questioning his own integrity and wondered what could be the reason producers were not casting him in big-budget films. As a result, Arif got indulged in alcohol and became an addict. After spending nearly 7-8 years in the film industry, Arif Khan devoted his life to spreading the message of truth and chose the path of becoming a Maulana.
