Estimated to be worth around Rs 20 crore, according to real estate platform Jugyah, 'Gangotri' is a serene oasis that seamlessly blends elegance with personal touches. As Farah Khan's vlog takes us inside, we're greeted by the welcoming security and staff, before stepping into the lush garden, where a tranquil Buddha statue sets the tone for a peaceful ambiance. The statue even prompts Farah to comment on Sonu Sood's calm demeanor, adding a touching personal touch to the tour.
Farah Khan and her cook, Dilip, were awestruck by the garden's beauty, with Farah remarking, 'Sonu is also like this statue, always calm and composed."

Inside, the living space exudes elegance with its soothing white-and-cream color palette, complemented by coordinated sofas, a sleek center table and thoughtfully curated wall decor. Adjacent to the stylish white staircase, which leads to the upper level of the duplex, lies a lavish dining area that epitomizes luxury and refinement.

The tour offers a glimpse into the family's personal spaces, starting with Ishant's ground-floor bedroom, designed in a sleek grey theme. The room showcases a striking canvas painting of a car, a creative masterpiece crafted by Ishant himself. Glass doors seamlessly connect the room to the lush outdoor garden. Upstairs, the family unwinds in their cozy media room, equipped with plush white sofas and a large screen, perfect for movie nights.
A standout feature in the home is a unique thread art portrait of Sonu Sood, gifted to him by a devoted fan, showcasing the actor's enduring connection with his admirers. Sonu shares a sneaker haven with his sons, bonding over their similar shoe sizes. In Ayaan's vibrant bedroom, a grey palette serves as the perfect backdrop for bold design elements, including an eye-catching anime-inspired wall mural and a bright yellow furniture unit that adds a pop of colour.
The balcony adjoining Ayaan's room is a serene oasis, shaded by lush trees, including a fruit-bearing mango tree. In a sweet moment, the family is seen picking up fallen mangoes, prompting Farah Khan to jokingly suggest that Sonu Sood venture into the mango business – a lighthearted moment that adds warmth to the tour.

Filmmaker turns Rapido captain, heart-warming story of resilience goes viral: ‘The stubbornness of success'
Ratnam E M Kalra, a content creator known for his compelling storytelling videos, recently shared an inspiring story revolving around Viraj Srivastav, a former assistant director who now works as a Rapido captain. After losing his father, Srivastav made the difficult decision to leave his home and mother behind to make a name for himself. But the journey was far from easy, as he had his own share of hardships his way. 'Main aadhi duniya ghum chuka hun, mera passport triple hai par kismat kab kahan le jaaye (I have travelled half of the world. My three passports ran out of pages, but you never know what destiny has planned for you),' Srivastav says in a viral video shared by Kalra. Now a Rapido captain, Srivastav couldn't complete his studies due to financial problems following his father's demise. 'Main bahut roya maa ko miss kar ke par waapis jaane ka tareeka nhi pata tha (I cried buckets as I missed my mother, but I couldn't return to her),' he adds. As the video progresses, Kalra says that Srivastav was his Rapido captain. Srivastav revealed that he had worked as an assistant director in Zee TV's popular daily soap Qubool Hai, starring Surbhi Jyoti and Karan Singh Grover. His first salary was around Rs 2,250, and he further received an offer from a TV production house. Sharing his musical skills, Srivastav reveals that he is proficient in drums, congo, ukulele, and is trained in thumri, a semi-classical vocal form in Hindustani music. 'Marne se phle jo meri iccha hai na, wo karke rahunga, kursi pe baith kr rahunga. Roll, Camera, Action, bol kar rahunga (I'll anyhow achieve my dream of becoming a director. Before dying, I'll sit on the director's chair and say roll, camera, action),' Srivastav says. Kalra, who shared the Instagram reel, wrote, 'It turned out to be such a special coincidence because I was his first ever Rapido ride. He was just trying it out as a part-time thing to earn an extra buck on the side. But he was special, stubborn, stern and so so talented.' Watch here: A post shared by Ratnam E M Kalra (@ratnamemkalra) The video resonated with several social media users, amassing over a million views. 'tu matt pahuncha, main pahunchuga (you don't reach me, I'll reach there),' content creator-actor Kusha Kapila commented. 'This reminds me of that scene in tamasha jab ved talks to that rickshaw driver. 'Wat wat wat wat',' another user wrote. 'The stubbornness for success is what makes the difference,' a third user reacted.

‘Saiyaara' Box Office collection day 11 (Live): Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's romantic drama directed by Mohit Suri nears Rs 250 crore mark in India; eyes Rs 300 crore next
Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda have made a powerful debut with their romantic drama 'Saiyaara'. Directed by Mohit Suri , the film is not just winning hearts but also smashing box office records. After a strong second weekend, 'Saiyaara' has neared the Rs 250 crore mark and now aims to hit the Rs 275–300 crore range in the coming days. Saiyaara Movie Review A good second week run The film showed no signs of slowing down in its second week. According to early estimates from Sacnilk, so far 'Saiyaara' earned Rs 1.96 crore on its second Monday (Day 11), taking the total collection to Rs 249.21 crore. The movie is now just a step away from officially entering the Rs 250 crore club. The second weekend was impressive with Saturday and Sunday collections pushing the film closer to the Rs 300 crore mark. The buzz around the film continues to grow, especially among young audiences. One of the biggest highlights of 'Saiyaara's' journey is that the film did not drop below double-digit earnings for the first 10 days, and the film stayed strong with consistent collections. Weekdays could bring a dip in numbers Now, as the film enters its second week, the weekdays could bring some dip in numbers, as usually happens. But if the fall is not too much, the film might smoothly sail past the Rs 275 crore mark and possibly Rs 300 crore soon. Day wise Box Office collection Day 1 (Friday): Rs 21.5 crore Day 2 (Saturday): Rs 26 crore Day 3 (Sunday): Rs 35.75 crore Day 4 (Monday): Rs 24 crore Day 5 (Tuesday): Rs 25 crore Day 6 (Wednesday): Rs 21.5 crore Day 7 (Thursday): Rs 19 crore Week 1 Total: Rs 172.75 crore Day 8 (Friday): Rs 18 crore Day 9 (Saturday): Rs 26.5 crore Day 10 (Sunday): Rs 31.18 crore Day 11 (Monday): Rs 1.96 crore (till 2.05pm) by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Brain tumor has left my son feeling miserable; please help! Donate For Health Donate Now Undo Total so far: Rs 249.21 crore Beating big films at the Box Office While many recent films have relied on star power, 'Saiyaara' is standing tall based purely on its content, emotions, and music. The film has done better than big releases like 'Dunki', which marked the return of Shah Rukh Khan with Rajkumar Hirani, and 'Singham Again', which brought back the Ajay Devgn–Rohit Shetty pair. 'Saiyaara' has also passed popular films like 'Drishyam 2' (Rs 239.67 crore), 'The Kerala Story' (Rs 239.05 crore), and 'Krrish 3' (Rs 231.79 crore). It is now just above the collections of 'URI: The Surgical Strike' (Rs 244.14 crore), which was called an all time Blockbuster. 'Saiyaara' film review The Times of India gave 'Saiyaara' 3 stars and praised the film's emotional moments. The review said, 'Suri gets the emotional core just right, but the film's uneven pacing intermittently slows things down and often rushes through pivotal turns. Moments of raw emotion do land, though a slightly rushed climax leaves much to be desired.' Ahaan Panday's performance has been getting a lot of attention. The review added, 'Ahaan Panday makes a smashing debut, capturing both the rough-edged swagger of a star-in-the-making and the vulnerability demanded later on. His prowess is on display in the finale as he revisits an earlier scene—channelling Virat 'King' Kohli—transforming the raw passion of the first half into pure emotion later.' Can 'Saiyaara' touch Rs 300 crore? Looking at the current trend, 'Saiyaara' seems all set to cross the Rs 250 crore mark officially by the end of Day 11. If it keeps performing well, the film could even become the second Hindi film of the year to enter the Rs 300 crore club. Tough competition ahead? The next big challenge for 'Saiyaara' will come on 1st August, when two new films, 'Dhadak 2' and 'Son of Sardaar', are set to release. This may affect the film's momentum, but with the love it's receiving from viewers, 'Saiyaara' still has a good chance to keep going strong.
