Bollywood has a deep relationship with cricket as much as it has with politics. Many cricketers have married actresses, while the children of many politicians have made their own identities in the film industry. When we mention actors belonging to political families, the first name that comes to mind is Riteish Deshmukh. He established his identity on the silver screen based on his talent, apart from his family's legacy. But today we are going to tell you about another actress associated with politics and the royal family who could not achieve her position in the film world.
Actors like Bhumi Pednekar, Aayush Sharma, and Arunoday Singh, who left behind their family legacy and turned to the film industry. Out of these, only a few actors have been able to succeed in the world of acting. Many actors remained confined to side roles. The actress we are talking about today has worked with stars like Emraan Hashmi, Jackie Bhagnani, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, and Arjun Kapoor. She appeared in many films in her 16-year-long career, but could not leave her mark as a lead actress.
Neha Sharma started her career with Telugu films in the year 2007. She first appeared in the film 'Chirutha' in the year 2007. The actress's second Telugu film was released in the year 2009. Neha Sharma debuted in a Hindi film in 2010. The actress made her debut opposite Emraan Hashmi. She was first seen in 'Crook', in which her acting was well received, but the film could not do wonders at the box office.
Actress Neha Sharma's acting and songs were well-liked in the 2010 film 'Crook'. She was successful in attracting people's attention with her performance in the film. Along with this, the makers also focused their attention on the actress. After her first film, Neha Sharma started getting many film offers. According to several media reports, Neha Sharma's net worth is estimated to be somewhere around Rs 22 crore.
Neha Sharma has worked in films like Kya Super Cool Hain Hum, Jayantbhai Ki Love Story, Yamla Pagla Deewana 2, Youngistan, Tum Bin 2, Yamla Pagla Deewana 2, Solo, and Tanhaji. Neha, who has been a part of many films, has been able to give only 1 blockbuster in her 16-year career. The actress's 2020 film Tanhaji was a blockbuster, but in this film, Neha was not seen in the lead role but as a supporting artist. This is the only blockbuster of the actress's career.
Neha Sharma is a resident of Bihar. She started her career by studying fashion design at NIFT. The actress's father, Ajit Sharma, has been an MLA from the Bhagalpur seat in the Bihar Legislative Assembly several times. He was an MLA from the Congress party. Actress Neha Sharma has been away from the screen since 2020.

Taking to her Instagram stories, she wrote, 'Ur so dumb... saying this put u on an advantage 'I'm smarter cooler' but naaaaaaaa! Darling how about gracious!!! N self aware?????? An art a lot of artists don't have!' She added, ''Saas bahu' n their impact on Indian masses (how women got a voice in mass India) is well documented by a prestigious Chicago research! But artists who talk of an inclusive world are actually more classist.' Ektaa didn't stop there. Without naming anyone, she wrote, 'We must do away with this 'U can't sit with us we r better' attitude for democracy n fair play! Love n light to all (sic).' What started it all? The entire row began after Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos appeared on Nikhil Kamath's podcast and spoke about launching Netflix in India. Reflecting on the decision, he said he would have done things differently. According to Ted, starting the platform in India with the series 'Sacred Games' may not have been the right move, and something 'more populist' might have worked better. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 오스템 임플란트 받아가세요 임플란터 더 알아보기 Undo Anurag Kashyap lashes out Anurag Kashyap, who directed and produced 'Sacred Games', did not take the comment lightly.

Olivia Munn reveals why she doesn't let her kids watch 'Ms. Rachel'

Picture Credit: X Hollywood actress Olivia Munn is not in favour of letting her kids watch 'Ms. Rachel'. The 'Your Friends & Neighbors' actress, 44, said that she doesn't let her kids Malcolm, 3, and Mei, 8 months, watch the YouTube creator's videos, or most kids' shows in general. Olivia shares her kids with husband John Mulaney , with whom she has been married since almost a year, reports 'People' magazine. She told 'People', "I know kids love (Ms. Rachel), but the thing is, if I can't watch it, I'm not going to spend the rest of my life going crazy. These kid shows drive me crazy". Munn also isn't a big fan of cartoons. "Malcolm asked for Blue's Clues (recently), and I don't know who showed him Blue's Clues, but they are on my s*** list now", Munn said. "I said, 'Hell no. Not in my house'. John got him into the Spider-Man cartoons, which is not interesting to me. I put on Tom Holland's 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' and was like, 'If you want to watch the real-life ones, then we can watch that.' It might be a little too old for him, but I can't take the cartoons". As per 'People', Munn says the only exception is PBS' children's show 'Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood', which she describes as a "great program". by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like [단독] 서울 임플란트 '33만원' 에 가능해 플란치과 Undo Before Mei's arrival via surrogate last September, Munn and Mulaney, 42, let Malcolm watch the show to help him prepare to become a big brother. "Daniel Tiger has a little sister, and we'd tell him, 'There's a baby sister coming'", Munn said. When introducing Mei to Malcolm, Munn says she and Mulaney made sure not to "change his world and identity and responsibilities". "A lot of times people will be like, 'Oh, you're a big brother now. You're not the baby anymore. Now you can help mommy get the diapers'. So, all of a sudden, he has all these responsibilities, and he doesn't just get to be carefree anymore", Munn said. "Instead, we would say, 'Now we have two babies. There's baby Mei Mei and baby Malcolm'". Check out our list of the latest Hindi , English , Tamil , Telugu , Malayalam , and Kannada movies .

Sonakshi Sinha's dream role with husband Zaheer Iqbal in a film is THIS! Wants to play a villain

Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal Sonakshi Sinha began her career as a quintessential commercial film heroine with Dabangg, followed by a string of masala entertainers. However, over time, she made a conscious effort to break the mould with nuanced roles in films like Lootera and Akira. She further pushed the envelope with powerful performances in OTT series like Dahaad and Heeramandi, where she portrayed a character with grey shades. Sonakshi is glad that filmmakers are now seeing her in a new light. She says, 'I am glad that directors have started thinking out of the box in terms of presenting me as an actor, and I am grateful for that. As a creative person, I go for stories, roles and ideas that really stir something in me.' Sonakshi also expressed a desire to reunite with her husband, Zaheer Iqbal , on screen. The couple had shared screen space in Double XXL (2022). While they would love to be a part of a project again, they have a hatke idea in mind for such a project. Zaheer says, 'Sonakshi and I should both play negative roles.' Sonakshi added, 'Yes, the two of us as villains pitted against everyone.' I love seeing Sonakshi in negative roles: Zaheer Zaheer loved Sonakshi's portrayal of the scheming Mallikajaan in Heeramandi. Zaheer gushed, 'I love seeing Sonakshi in negative roles, especially in a series like Heeramandi. I think she looks damn cool. Also, she has an eye for those characters. In real life, though, I can't be serious with her. If she looks at me angrily, I break into laughter.'
