Yuvika Chaudhary reveals doctor told her ‘you can't have babies', panicked actor told husband Prince Narula to plan baby ‘right now'
Prince and Yuvika, who got married in 2018, embraced parenthood after seven years of marriage. When asked if there was any pressure from either of the families, she replied, 'My parents never pressurised us. They just wanted us to have a child, whenever we want. But now, they all want us to have have one more kid. More than anyone else, Prince says that there should be one sibling.'
The Om Shanti Om actor was initially unaware about the process of In Vitro Fertilisation (IVF). 'I didn't know what IVF was, got to know about it in someone's interview. Either it was lack of knowledge or I never took interest in this part of life. While I was exploring my options to freeze eggs, I visited a doctor and she scared me and said, 'You can't have babies'. She must have thought that she can make some business from me,' she revealed.

Yuvika further added, 'I panicked and asked Prince to plan a child right now, I thought my cycle is late. I started the egg freezing process and they took signatures that after anesthesia, we don't take guarantee if you will wake up normal or not. Because I was weak, Prince asked to cancel, he said I am more important to him than having a baby.'
The duo then decided to change their doctor. 'We switched doctors and she boosted my confidence to try for a baby and get my eggs frozen. I told my doctor that this is my first and last trial. They put so many injections during this process. I would try naturally as well, but maybe it was a nazar thing that whenever it was our ovulation period, one of us had to travel,' she shared.
Everything went by smoothly and Yuvika's first IVF trial was successful. 'My first IVF trial worked for me. When the doctor transferred my embryo, I looked at her, hugged her, and said, 'Congratulations, I will be pregnant'. She was nervous, but I was confident, I had faith. I got to know within a week that I am pregnant. She asked me to go on bed rest, but I was making reels with Prince, we didn't know that I was pregnant,' she said.
'Home test didn't have anything twice, but the blood test revealed that I was pregnant. Prince got the result news first and he revealed it to me. He said, 'We are pregnant', with tears in his eyes. I couldn't believe, I was numb. We told our parents immediately, we both were crying,' the actor concluded.

Not Arjun Rampal, but this actor was supposed to play ‘Mukesh Mehra' in Shah Rukh Khan's 'Om Shanti Om'
It's hard to imagine anyone but playing the suave yet sinister 'Mukesh Mehra' in Om Shanti Om, but the role nearly went to another Bollywood name — . Director Farah Khan has long admitted that casting for the 2007 blockbuster's antagonist was a nightmare. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now 'Casting for the role of Mukesh Mehra was the most difficult as it was a completely negative role, there was nothing positive about him,' she told in an earlier interview with us. The team had a specific vision: Deepika Padukone's on-screen love interest had to be conventionally good-looking, 'probably even better-looking than .' Vivek was offered the role before Arjun but turned it down, not wanting to repeat a negative character after Company. Around the same time, he chose 's Shootout at Lokhandwala instead. Farah & SRK's last-minute scramble By New Year's Eve 2006, the film was set to start shooting in just days — and still had no villain. That's when fate intervened at Shah Rukh Khan's party. Farah and SRK cornered Arjun Rampal — quite literally in a bathroom — to pitch him the part. Initially, Arjun hesitated, calling it 'too villainous,' especially with dark scenes like 'burning the girl.' But SRK refused to give up, personally convincing Arjun to trust both him and Farah. Arjun joined the film just two days before costume fittings, later recalling, 'I'm glad I trusted both of them.' No regrets for Vivek Oberoi Vivek, for his part, has no bitterness about the opportunity lost. In Bollywood Hungama interview, when asked by a fan why he turned down Om Shanti Om, he said, 'You can't go back and change those decisions… you move forward.' The actor has also famously passed on Munnabhai MBBS, Hum Tum, and Bunty Aur Babli. As he puts it, 'For the 10-odd films I let go which succeeded, there were 70 or 80… which failed.' Arjun Rampal enjoys lunch with girlfriend Gabriella Demetriades and daughter Mahikaa Rampal

Toronto artists stun audiences with ‘flawless' re-creation of iconic Shah Rukh Khan movie; netizens call it ‘absolute cinema'
A troupe of Toronto-based artists brought Bollywood nostalgia to life at the Taste of India festival in North America recently by flawlessly recreating the legendary comeback scene from Om Shanti Om. Their performance of Dastaan-E-Om Shanti Om, the song that condenses the entire plot into one electrifying sequence, has taken Instagram by storm. The viral clip, shared by an Instagram user with the handle @Wonder_through_my_frame, shows the group Mumbai Troupers delivering a pitch-perfect rendition of the scene, complete with dramatic dialogues, powerful expressions, and infectious energy. 'Watching this iconic comeback scene from Om Shanti Om recreated live by the insanely talented @mumbai_troupers was nothing short of magical,' she wrote. 'The dialogues, the expressions, the energy, everything was so powerful, it felt like reliving that unforgettable cinematic moment all over again.' She went on to praise the lead performers, @kareenasingh25 and @its_sherwin27, for embodying Om and Shanti 'with so much intensity and grace.' A post shared by Wonder_through_my_frame (@wonder_through_my_frame) Within days, the video racked up over 6 lakh views, with viewers flooding the comments section. 'What a cinematic performance love it,' one person wrote. Another admitted, 'The ending iss so so so soo wellll Beautifully …I got tears.'

Instead of faltering, the dancers powered through in perfect sync, their expressions and movements undimmed. The crowd responded instantly, cheering them on and even singing the song aloud to help them finish the act, turning what could have been a mishap into a magical, unforgettable moment.
