This dreaded villain publicly humiliated Aamir Khan, got angry on set over…, then apologised; his name is…
Famous actor Aamir Khan, who has turned 60, is now counted among the veterans and senior actors of the film industry. However, when Aamir Khan was completely new to the industry, a veteran actor scolded him fiercely. Once on the set, he had a confrontation with a dreaded villain like Amrish Puri.
Aamir Khan 's uncle Nasir Hussain was the director of the film in which Amrish Puri was working . Aamir was assisting his uncle as an Assistant Director. At that time he interrupted Amrish Puri. Enraged by this, Amrish Puri scolded Aamir on the set itself. However, later Amrish realized his mistake and apologized to the new Aamir.
Before becoming a film actor, Amrish Puri was deeply involved in theatre. He performed in plays at Prithvi Theatre and with groups like the Indian People's Theatre Association (IPTA). Guided by renowned theatre directors like Satyadev Dubey, he became known for his powerful acting skills. This experience in theatre helped him master his voice, expressions, and acting style, which later made him stand out in Indian cinema. The actor who often displayed his dominance over heroes on the big screen once got angry with Aamir Khan in real life.
Actually, this whole incident is related to the 1985 film Zabardast, which also starred Rajiv Kapoor, Sanjeev Kumar, Sunny Deol, and Jaya Prada. The film was directed by Nasir Hussain. Aamir Khan was present on set assisting his uncle Nasir during the shoot. During the filming of a scene, Aamir interrupted Amrish Puri two or three times in quick succession, which the veteran actor did not appreciate. Annoyed, Amrish Puri scolded Aamir harshly in front of everyone on set.
However, what happened next might surprise you. Once Puri found out that Aamir was Hussain's nephew, his attitude changed completely. Realising his mistake, the veteran actor apologised to Aamir Khan.

Bigg Boss fame Edin Rose's bold love confession for Shreyas Iyer sets internet ablaze: 'I am already married to him in my mind'
In an era of filtered feelings and scripted romances, Bigg Boss 18 sensation Edin Rose has boldly stepped into the spotlight with a confession that's as heartfelt as it is headline-grabbing. The Dubai-born actress, known for her fiery persona and unapologetic honesty, recently declared her deep admiration—and imaginary nuptials—with none other than Indian cricket heartthrob, Shreyas Iyer . Yes, you read that right. In a candid interview with Filmygyan, Edin didn't just admit to crushing on the cricketer. She went several steps further, revealing that in her heart, she is already Mrs. Iyer and considers herself the mother of his future children. "He Inspires Me Every Day": When Cricket Meets Admiration 'I believe I'm the mother of his kids. In my mind, I'm already married to him,' Edin proclaimed during the interview. While most celebrity crushes stay hidden behind coy smiles and vague innuendos, Edin's confession was anything but subtle. It came with a glowing explanation of what makes Shreyas so desirable in her eyes—his humility, dedication to the game, and grounded personality. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Gạch cao su mới không cần lắp đặt cầu kỳ (tìm gạch tại đây) Gạch | Quảng cáo tìm kiếm Tìm Ngay Undo 'He inspires me every day. It's his humility, his focus, and the way he carries himself — those are the things I find truly admirable,' she added, her admiration firmly rooted not just in looks, but in the person behind the jersey. View this post on Instagram A post shared by F I L M Y G Y A N (@filmygyan) Choosing Her Cricket King in a Game of Love The interview took an entertaining turn with a 'Marry, Hookup, Date' segment. Edin chose to 'marry' Shreyas Iyer, 'hookup' with Shubman Gill, and 'date' Hardik Pandya. But the spotlight never shifted far from Shreyas. The actress recalled how even before her Bigg Boss stint, people close to her knew of her deep admiration for the cricketer. You Might Also Like: Feeling bad after selling a stock too early? Even Shah Rukh Khan let go of his 'multibagger' Shreyas Iyer, quips fund manager Interestingly, she also clarified that a past headline suggesting she was dating Shreyas was entirely false, though it stirred curiosity at the time. For Edin, Shreyas stands out for all the right reasons—tall, dark, bearded, muscular, and a true ambassador of Indian pride on the field. From Sarees in Dubai to Stardom in Mumbai Born on August 20, 1998, Edin Rose's journey is as fascinating as her screen presence. With roots in Burma and Karnataka, and a childhood spent in Dubai, her dreams were anything but ordinary. As a young girl, she would drape her mother's saree, perform in front of the television, and mimic South Indian film stars, determined to one day become one herself. At the age of 20, she moved to Mumbai with stars in her eyes and soon made her debut in the bold web series Gandii Baat as Vasudha. She went on to feature in Cineprime's Good Girls – Brides Night , and the short film Help Me . Her big break in Telugu cinema came through a chance meeting with actor-producer Ravi Teja. Without even auditioning, she landed a special dance number in Ravanasura —a testament to her screen presence and growing appeal. While it remains to be seen if Shreyas Iyer will respond to this larger-than-life love proclamation, one thing is clear—Edin Rose is unafraid of wearing her heart on her sleeve.

Quiver full of stories in 25-yr-old's passion for collecting 800 autographs
Pune: When Sayam Bagmar from Gadag in Karnataka met Gulzar , he was overwhelmed. Sitting next to the legendary poet and Bollywood icon was a dream come true. He was there for an autograph for his collection. Sayam's perseverance paid off. He met Gulzar at his home in Bandra. He had 15 to 16 articles with him, including vinyl records of some of Gulzar's best movies, books, and a sketched portrait. Gulzar wrote two-line poems where? before signing. "There are boards in his office which say 'do not request for photos'. I hesitantantly sought a photograph with him, fully expecting to hear a 'no'. To my surprise, he called his assistant and took some pictures with me without the pomp of a global-winning celebrity," Sayam said. The 25-year-old, who contributes to his family business in the trading of stationery and printing products, has followed his passion with dedication and has autographs of 800 Indian personalities, 1,500 if all those who gave it to him more than once are counted. He did it not by gate-crashing, but by setting up meetings with people either in person or through correspondence. The first autograph came from celebrated athlete Milkha Singh . by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Trade gold CFDs with a trusted broker | Open an account today. IC Markets Sign Up Undo "I only knew that he was called the 'Flying Sikh'. I had written to him in 2018 and he called me. I was not expecting to hear from him as my letter was gushing with admiration for him. When he spoke to me, I had goosebumps. My response to him was childish," Sayam said. The famous athlete gave Sayam a simple life lesson— work hard. His autograph sent by mail was lost in transit but he re-sent another after a year. It is among Sayam's prized possessions. The young man, in a cream-coloured T-shirt, blue jeans, and a backpack, stands apart in his single-minded devotion. "I do not drink (alcohol) or smoke, and I do not socialise much. After working for more than 10 to 12 hours a day, I do not have the energy," he said. Sayam spends two days a week researching his hobby, so each autograph he collects has a story. Sometimes it takes him months and even years to get the autograph— like Ratan Tata 's. "I know people who know people through my stamp-collecting hobby. I tried all of them to get his autograph but nothing worked. Eventually, I got to know someone working in his office. The lady was kind and put in a word on my behalf. Seeing my sustained efforts, his office got in touch with me, and I received a signed portrait from him a mere one year before he passed away," he said. It took Sayam five years to get in touch with the office of Ratan Tata. He got what he wanted but was not able to meet Tata as he was too old for in-person meetings. Sayam looks for Padma awardees but instead of taking their signatures in a scrapbook, he takes them on some memorabilia. Famed orthopaedist Kantilal Sancheti's signature is on a knee model as he is the first Indian to perform knee transplant surgery and was part of the team that operated on former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee. His current focus is on Indian chess grandmasters. So far, he has collected 20 signatures. Among them are those of former chess world champion Viswanathan Anand and current world champion D Gukesh. He also got Indian woman grandmaster Koneru Humpy's at the Women Grand Prix 2025. Humpy won the tournament in Pune. "I had been trying to meet her for more than two years. I managed to get her cover picture from the Asian Games 2023 from China from a friend there," Sayam said. On his Pune visit, he could get 17 chess players to sign in one go. The organisers had prohibited people from seeking autographs of players but the players made an exception for Sayam. "Many personalities are happy to see someone from another part of the country wanting to take their autographs. One or two lines from legends is a huge learning experience," he said. While visiting Jaipur for a family wedding, Sayam squeezed time out to meet two-time Paralympic gold medallist in javelin Devendra Jhajharia. He got one from Padma Shri awardee late Swami Shivananda Saraswati during the Kumbh in Uttar Pradesh. Sayam's cupboard is filled with signed artefacts and needs regular upkeep to prevent damage, but the pleasure lies in his adding to his collection. His only regret is the he does not have Pandit Bhimsen Joshi's signature, Gadag's most famous personality.
