Amidst a busy shoot schedule, the trio stepped away from the cameras to plant saplings around their set — each one personally committing to do their bit to protect the planet.
For Ishita Ganguly, the experience was deeply personal. "For me, Environment Day is not just about one day, it's about every little choice we make, every single day," she shared. "Today, planting those saplings around our set felt really special.
I've always found peace in nature – the sound of rustling leaves, the scent of wet soil after rain, or just watching the sky change colours at sunset. Nature grounds me and reminds me what truly matters.
"
She also offered simple but effective eco-friendly habits she follows in her daily life: "To avoid future problems, I carry my own water bottle, avoid plastic, reuse what I can, and plant at least one sapling every year.
These might seem like small things, but they make a big difference when done with intention."
Reflecting on her emotional connection with the environment, Ishita added: "We often look for magic in big achievements or faraway places, but honestly, the Earth is the real magician – it heals our body and soul in its own unique ways. If we don't protect this magic now, we might lose it forever. I want to keep walking barefoot on soft grass, keep watching butterflies flutter around flowers, and keep breathing in fresh, clean air.

Let's not wait for a miracle – let's be the miracle for Mother Earth. Happy Environment Day!"
Their initiative may have been quiet and simple, but the message it sent was loud and clear: it's the small, meaningful actions that help nurture a healthier planet for tomorrow.

Sheel Verma on playing two contrasting roles in Badi Haveli Ki Chhoti Thakurian: Bablu is full of energy and fun

They say an actor lives many lives through the characters they play, and for Sheel Verma , this couldn't be more true. Fans who were heartbroken by the untimely death of Jaiveer in the TV show Badi Haveli Ki Chhoti Thakurain are in for a surprise. Because Sheel Verma is back—but not as the calm and noble Jaiveer. This time, he's stepping into the show with a completely new identity and energy as rough and shrouded Bablu. Sheel shared with a smile, 'I honestly feel blessed to get the chance to play two totally different characters in the same show. Jaiveer was royal, calm, and always serious. But Bablu? He's the exact opposite! He's funny, super energetic, and a big devotee of Lord Hanuman. Even though Bablu is a thief by profession, he's very clever and street-smart. He also believes that women are weaker than men, which adds an interesting side to his character. For Bablu, I completely changed my look—I cut my hair and wore clothes that were very different from what Jaiveer wore. Even small things like the Bali and bracelet really help bring Bablu's personality to life.' He further shared, 'Playing Bablu is actually a lot of fun! He has a different kind of energy, and when I bring that to the screen, it even boosts my own spirit. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Experience next-level CPAP comfort with Resmed AirSense 11 ResMed Enquire Now Undo I'm really excited to see how the audience reacts to Bablu—I'm confident they're going to love him.'
