Tu Yaa Main: Shanaya Kapoor and Adarsh Gourav starrer thriller to go on floors on THIS date
Ever since the teaser of Adarsh Gourav and Shanaya Kapoor's upcoming film Tu Yaa Main was dropped, cinephiles are eager to see how the actors perform in Bejoy Nambiar's thriller. Amid all the buzz, the latest update about the film has left viewers wanting more. According to reports, the actors will start filming for their first collab in the second week of June. Read on!
While the audience has seen Adarsh Gourav' s acting talent in movies like The White Tiger, Kho Gaye Hum Kahan, Superboys of Malegaon, and more, Shanaya Kapoor' s skills are still hidden. Hence, the excitement around Tu Yaa Main is even greater. But fans will have to wait a little longer before this Bejoy Nambiar thriller is finally served to them.
Currently, the team is looking forward to kicking off the shoot of the movie by the second week of June 2025, stated a report by Hindustan Times. While talking to the publication, the Mom actor stated that he is truly thrilled to start working on this film, and the work on it has already begun.
Sharing more about the movie, Adarsh stated that it's a completely different genre from what he has done till now, and this is probably the reason why he was drawn to the project. In the same chat, Adarsh also spoke about joining hands with Bejoy Nambiar in his upcoming film. The young star, who originally hails from Jamshedpur, Jharkhand, stated that Bejoy is a distinct cinematic voice.
Talking about his co-star Shanaya, Gourav admitted that sharing the screen with Sanjay Kapoor and Maheep Kapoor's daughter makes the project even more special. "I can't wait for audiences to experience what we're creating," he expressed.
As of now, the two actors have only shot the teaser of the film, which was released weeks ago. Produced by Aanand L Rai, the film will release on Valentine's Day 2026. In the movie, Adarsh and Shanaya will be playing social media influencers who bump into each other during a content-creation trip in the backwaters.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Shanaya Kapoor is expected to make her Bollywood debut with Aankhon Ki Gustaakhiyan alongside Vikrant Massey.

Pankaj Tripathi doesn't believe his acting has a type: '10 paintings from a painter look similar from afar'
Pankaj Tripathi is Madhav Mishra once again. The actor has returned as the beloved lawyer for the fourth time in the new season of Criminal Justice. In a candid chat with Hindustan Times, the actor opens up about returning to the character and avoiding being typecast. The fourth season of Criminal Justice, titled A Family Matter, sees Madhav Mishra fighting his toughest case yet. Talking about returning to the familiar character, Pankaj says, "It is a bit like meeting an old friend, too, and also like remembering something you once studied." Ask him about how he makes sure the character does not fall prey to repetition, and Pankaj replies, 'That is all due to the writing. As an actor, you can pick the best available path to portray a character. There, as a choice, you can avoid the cliches and pandering to the audience.' Madhav Mishra is a role that he has played the most number of times on screen. But his critics argue that a little bit of Pankaj Tripathi in most roles he does. The actor addresses that and says, "There is a problem in our Hindi film industry that in the days of struggle, there is no work. There were 2-3-year periods between 2004 and 2012 when I did not even face a camera. I could not shoot. After that, I got some small roles, and slowly, I became bigger. A lot of offers came my way. Jab bhookh zyada lagi ho to over-eating karna sambhav hai (When you are famished, there is a possibility of over-eating). So, I overate. I did a lot of work. That creates the challenge of keeping things different. You try, that's all you can do." But he does not agree that all his roles are similar. "If you look at 10 paintings from one painter from afar, they look similar, because he has his own style. But the moment you go closer, you see minor differences. That is my effort too, to bring that minor difference," argues Pankaj, adding, "The important thing is to work less. But when you do a lot of work, my effort is not to lose my touch that the audience likes, but the characters still feel different." Criminal Justice: A Family Matter also stars Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, Surveen, Asha Negi, Khushboo Atre, Mita Vashisht, and Shweta Basu Prasad. The first three episodes of the season premiered on JioHotstar on May 29, with one releasing every week subsequently.

The Royals actor Lisa Mishra defends show amid polarising reactions: 'I'm just glad people tuned in'
Netflix's The Royals is the most talked-about Indian show currently. Ever since it dropped on the streaming platform a couple of weeks ago, the show has dominated trends worldwide. However, it has also elicited a lot of polarising reactions from critics and viewers alike. Many have criticised the show's depiction of royal families, as well as the writing and performance. But Lisa Mishra, who plays Nikki on the show, takes it all with a pinch of salt. In a chat with Hindustan Times, the musician-turned-actor talks about the show's reception and more. (Also read: The Royals director responds to criticism of show, Ishaan Khatter, Bhumi Pednekar's 'absent' chemistry: I'll try better) Ask her about the contrasting responses The Royals has received and Lisa says, 'Yes, there were a lot of people who liked the show and us, and some who did not like it as much, which is natural. But I am just glad people tuned in. Whether you liked it or didn't, you watched and you talked about it. I guess that is what made it trend in 43 countries. In the end, art is like that. Not everyone will like everything you make.' A post shared by Lisa Mishra (@lisamishramusic) The Royals stars Bhumi Pednekar and Ishaan Khatter in the lead roles, and the show features a few steamy scenes between the two. Naturally, there was an intimacy coordinator on set. Even Lisa made use of the intimacy coordinator for a kiss scene she had with Kavya Trehan in the show. Talking about the experience, she says, "I had always assumed an intimacy coordinator would be telling you where to place your hand and such technical stuff. But it's not about that at all. It is more about feeling safe and comfortable. In our case, Kavya and I had our scenes and our intimacy coordinator - Aastha - spoke to us and got us talking about our comfort levels and boundaries. That was our prep, and we talked so much that by the time, we went to shoot, we were there mentally." Before taking the acting plunge, Lisa was a singer-songwriter. She still performs and has just recently released a new single. Yet, she is certain about one thing - she doesn't want to play a musician on screen, at least not yet. "I consciously decided to take up roles that don't require me to be a singer or musician," she says, adding, "I have sung for shows I am part of, but that is me contributing to the soundtrack as a musician. I don't want my acting career to be an extension of that. So, whether it is Call Me Bae or The Royals, the effort is to do something different. And I will keep trying to do that."

Ananya Panday: I am not scared of judgement anymore
has navigated fame, criticism, and personal evolution in the public eye. Starting out at 18, today, she's no longer just the industry's young entrant — she's a voice for Gen Z battling the complexities of stardom, social media, and self-worth. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now In this honest, light-hearted, yet meaningful conversation on Bombay Times Lounge, Ananya talks about the weight and pride of legacy, the nuances of modern relationships and why she's finally free of the fear of being judged. Over to her... Ananya Panday You started your career at 18, now at 26 with a growing filmography and success to boast of, are you less scared of judgment and scrutiny now? At the start, I was very eager to please everyone. Even now I am, and I hope that people like me, but I don't feel the pressure. Earlier, I would take a lot of effort to make everyone happy at the risk of not being myself. I am not scared of judgment anymore, because too much has happened for me to be scared of that. I think I am a lot more comfortable in my skin now. With fame and stardom comes a sudden power, right? And you have seen success at a fairly early age. How do you stay centered and continue to focus on the bigger picture? The people around me keep me grounded. In the beginning, I used to think that if I said something, for instance, in an interview, then things would change. But I realised it doesn't function like that, and only your work really speaks for everything. People will only come and pay their hard-earned money to watch you if they like your work and if they like you as a person. Ananya with her parents Bhavna and Chunky Panday Having seen your father Chunky Panday experience highs and lows in his career, did that shape your perspective? Honestly, by the time I was born, my dad wasn't acting that much, and he wasn't getting too much work. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now It wasn't like my parents were discussing it or aisa kuch chal raha tha ki ghar mein kuch problems hai, because my dad always kept doing something, even if he wasn't on a film set. But while growing up, I sensed the way people reacted to my friends' parents who were actors versus my dad. So, I would be like, 'Oh, maybe there's something different. ' Maybe in my subconscious, it was there. I learned to appreciate and value what I have in the moment and to also give it my best because you're not going to keep getting chances. You have only one shot at it really. Ananya Panday You have won appreciation for your recent work, like Call Me Bae, Kho Gaye Hum Kahan and Kesari 2, however, conversations around you coming from a place of privilege continue. How do you feel about that? I've always been the kind of person to acknowledge my privilege. Even when I went on Koffee with Karan for the first time, I said that I know that I'm privileged. I know that there are probably people out there who are more talented, better looking and more hardworking than I am. But now I've got this opportunity, and I don't want to waste it, as this has also been my dream since I was a child. So, I've taken the shame out of being privileged and I look at it with a sense of pride. My father was a child of two doctors, and his dream was to become an actor, and he became one. He's worked for 40-plus years, and if I can carry forward his legacy and make him proud, it will be a very big achievement for me. I don't want to not be known as 's daughter. I'm so proud that he's my father. I don't want to look at it as a negative thing anymore because people will always have something to say. Gen Z, like every generation, is battling its own set of problems – like social media pressure, body image issues, a sense of loneliness despite being in a crowd, just to point out a few. As someone living in the spotlight, how do you navigate this, and what's your advice to young people on this? There are days when I feel bogged down, when I read some comment or thread online that's untrue, I kind of spiral. At the start, I would get really emotional and want to come out and say something. Over time, I think I have developed a thick skin, but at the end of the day, I'm human and I do feel bad. So, I would just say: feel whatever you're feeling. If someone tells you not to cry, don't listen to them. It's okay to have days where you're crying and you are angry and want to let it out. Bottling it up only makes it worse. Ananya Panday on Bombay Times Lounge Talking about relationships, what according to you are the red flags in a man? Have you ever overlooked those because you have been deeply in love? Yes, it happens. I think you make excuses for people, and you think that things will change. That happens with me where I change myself a lot for the person I am with – like I start watching the films he likes or if he dresses a certain way, I start dressing like that, which is not good. Again, it comes from that people-pleasing personality trait that I have. You should actually be yourself, and your partner should accept you for who you are. For me, the biggest red flags are the obvious ones – like cheating, lying, disrespecting you in public and all of that. I think someone who can't be happy for you when you are doing well is a big red flag, especially for successful women. I also feel bad for men because they are often put under this societal pressure that they need to be a certain way. So, given this societal construct, a lot of people can't fully be what they want to be and who they want to be. Ananya with Shah Rukh Khan 'There is no one like Shah Rukh Khan' Ask her about the kind influence Shah Rukh Khan has had in her life, as she's seen him closely since her childhood days, and she says, 'I think the way Shah Rukh Khan handles his personal and professional life -- there's no one like him. While growing up, I saw first-hand what an amazing father he is to Aryan, Suhana and AbRam and the way he's been with all of us. He would train us all for our sports day and taekwondo competitions. He was very, very present in what was happening in our lives. Even now, he wants to know what we're doing and is very involved. Also, when he is talking to you, he has this quality of making you feel that you are the only person in the world. There is no one like him!
