Sanjjanaa reveals, 'Having been diagnosed with Placenta Previa, a C-section was necessary.
I was panicking, thinking I wouldn't make it out of the operating room. In fact, for a few hours before I was wheeled into surgery, I was sharing all my details like passwords in the family group... However, the moment I held my daughter, all those worries became insignificant,' says Sanjjanaa.

Housefull 5 Box Office Collection Day 1: Biggest opening in Akshay Kumar's movie career? Let's find out
Housefull 5, starring Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh and Abhishek Bachchan, was released on June 6 amid mixed reviews. Let's find out how much it collected at the box office on the day of its release. But, before that, let's find out how much is at stake. The total budget for Housefull 5 is ₹ 240 crore, according to Pinkvilla. Out of this, ₹ 225 crore was used for production. This covers the cost of paying the actors, shooting in multiple locations, building large sets and adding special effects. Another ₹ 15 crore was set aside for promotion, including posters, trailers and media events. Even before the film hit cinemas, it earned ₹ 135 crore through non-theatrical deals, the publication added. The digital streaming rights were sold for ₹ 75 crore, TV satellite rights brought in ₹ 40 crore, and the music rights fetched ₹ 20 crore. However, to break even, the film still needs to earn ₹ 105 crore through theatre collections. For this, it must collect around ₹ 250 crore from cinemas worldwide. Just breaking even is not enough to call a film a hit. For Housefull 5 to be considered a success at the box office, it needs to gross at least ₹ 325 crore worldwide, Pinkvilla added. The comedy movie will compete with the previous installment, Housefull 4, the biggest commercial success in Akshay Kumar's Hindi film career with a collection of ₹ ₹ 210.3 crore. It was also the biggest film in Riteish Deshmukh's career. The next two films are Good Newwz ( ₹ 205.09 crore) and Mission Mangal ( ₹ 203.08 crore). For Akshay Kumar, these are the only three Hindi films that collected above ₹ 200 crore. The biggest movie is his career, however, is 2.0. The Tamil movie collected ₹ 744.78 crore worldwide. Housefull 5 has made a strong start at the box office, earning ₹ 23 crore on its opening day. This impressive figure places it as the fourth-highest first-day grosser in Akshay Kumar's Bollywood career. It trails behind Mission Mangal ( ₹ 29.16 crore), Sooryavanshi ( ₹ 26.29 crore) and Gold ( ₹ 25.25 crore). With this performance, Housefull 5 has overtaken the opening figures of other notable Akshay Kumar films like Kesari ( ₹ 21.06 crore), Singh Is Bliing ( ₹ 20.67 crore) and 2.0 (Hindi version, ₹ 20.25 crore).

Did you know that Raj Kapoor had predicted that Dilip Kumar will be an actor, the duo played soccer together
The enduring bond between cinematic legends Dilip Kumar and Raj Kapoor began long before the silver screen made them household names. Their friendship was rooted in a shared upbringing in Peshawar and a mutual respect that spanned decades. In a candid conversation with Lehren Retro , Dilip Kumar fondly recounted their early days, highlighting how Raj Kapoor had a significant influence on his journey into films. 'We come from the same town. I was born in Peshawar, he was born in Peshawar. Our families knew each other,' Dilip shared. He reminisced about their childhood games, particularly soccer matches, where Raj Kapoor's leadership shone through. 'He was the one who always used to say, when we used to play the game of soccer, he was good goalkeeper and a very good referee, particularly when we used to play against British army teams he used to assert himself… all as a little boy,' he recalled with a smile. Raj, even in those early days, envisioned a future in cinema for them both. 'So he used to tell me you go into films, we both will go into films,' Dilip said. However, acting wasn't initially on his radar. 'But I said no, because that was not the thing in those times you would aspire to do. So I used to tell him that you go, your father also does the same, so you should follow his footsteps.' Years later, fate brought them together again on a film set. Raj recognised Dilip instantly and reminded him of his childhood prediction. 'He said I told you you will be here,' Dilip recalled warmly. 'We had a lovely relationship,' he added, reflecting on the depth of their camaraderie. Interestingly, despite their close friendship and towering presence in Hindi cinema, they shared the screen just once — in Andaz (1949), a film that became both a critical and commercial landmark.
