‘He's married and has two kids': Richa Chadha once recalled her mom's hilarious confusion over Ali Fazal; why introducing your partner can worry your parents
Introducing your partner to your parents can be nerve-racking enough — but what happens when your mother confuses them for someone else entirely? That's precisely what happened to Richa Chadha. The actor, who married Ali Fazal in 2022, once opened up about her mother's hilarious and slightly alarming initial reaction when she told her she was dating someone named Ali. On the All About Eve podcast, Richa revealed, 'Ali plays this character called Zafar in 'Fukrey'. His real name is Ali Fazal. There's another actor called Ali Zafar, so a lot of people just confuse the names.' She continued, 'When I first told my mom that I was starting to date this guy, she called me very alarmed. She said, 'I don't know if you know he is married and has two kids'. I was like 'what?!' She's like 'yeah, he is from Lahore, he is married and he has two kids'. I said 'no, it's not that guy'.' Thankfully, once her mother met the real Ali, she softened immediately and said, 'bada sundar hai (he's beautiful).' Counselling psychologist Athul Raj tells 'Parents, especially in Indian households, often react first – not because they don't trust their children, but because the emotional weight of love, safety, and family pride all collide at once. Their mind fills in the gaps based on what they think they know. This isn't always ignorance. It's their way of protecting children using the tools they understand: caution, assumptions, and worst-case scenarios.' Many parents didn't grow up talking openly about relationships. Raj adds, 'So when their child says, 'I'm dating someone,' it's not just new–it's vulnerable territory. The panic comes from wanting to know more immediately, to regain footing. The name, the background, the headlines–they all become shortcuts to try and understand this person quickly, even if it leads them the wrong way.' 'So the first step is slowing down,' explains Raj, adding, 'Don't treat the relationship as something to be 'approved.' Frame it as something important to you that you want to share with them. Then talk about how that relationship has shaped you, helped you grow, and challenged you. Let them into your emotional journey, not just your partner's resume.' When introducing them, keep it low-stakes. A festival gathering. A casual evening. Not a high-pressure 'we need to talk.' Let your partner just be present, no grand performance. Parents learn a lot from observation–they pick up on small cues, warmth, tone, body language. The more real the interaction, the more they can connect. Raj notes, 'The way to undo that is not by pushing explanations, but by letting them experience your partner as a person. Maybe they join for a festival, maybe they help serve tea during a visit, maybe they ask your parents about their work or cooking. These small, ordinary moments build trust far more than long introductions or trying to impress.' Also, he adds, let your parents see the relationship through your lens. Instead of just saying 'He's kind,' say, 'When I was sick, he stayed up all night because he was worried.' These stories offer emotional proof. They shift the focus from 'who is this person?' to 'how does this person show up in my child's life?' And that's what most parents really care about.

‘AR Rahman doesn't need Hindi cinema anymore, he gets more creative freedom in Chennai,' says Ranjit Barot
AR Rahman's long-time collaborator and celebrated musician Ranjit Barot recently opened up about the Oscar-winning composer's unmatched work ethic and how his relentless dedication helped shape his journey to the top. In a conversation with O2India, Ranjit shared, 'I think he's blessed, but I don't like to put too much weight on that, because it takes away from the hard work he's put in. Everyone says, 'He's blessed, he's blessed.' But what is blessing, really? To me, it's acknowledging that you've been touched by a pure force, and then working on it. We're all blessed in some way, but the real question is: what are we doing with it? Everyone has a different path and a different journey. He does what he does because, in a way, he has been working like this 24/7 for 40 years. That's what you call being blessed. Blessing isn't just a label. Yes, we all feel blessed in some way, and yes, in our karmic journey, he has grown to this level. He has worked for many lifetimes to become this person, and then he happens to be in the right place at the right time. The fact that Ilaiyaraaja said no to Roja and Rahman grabbed the opportunity, these things definitely helped him. But the rest is all his hard work.' Also Read | AR Rahman sang 'Vande Matram' at 2 am, filmmaker recalls wanting to keep it 'romantic': 'I was in tears…vohi recording aaj gaane mein hai' Ranjit Barot also reflected on how the Hindi film industry may no longer provide AR Rahman with the creative freedom he once enjoyed, suggesting that his talents find a more fitting home in Tamil cinema today. 'Now, yes, currently. There was a time when Hindi film directors were given the same amount of freedom. But now, he doesn't really need the Hindi cinema scene that much; he's beyond all that. Yes, he's originally from Chennai, so his roots are there. But having said that, he's not just some Carnatic musician, he's a Sufi musician. He can do ghazals, he can do North Indian music, he's a classical-based composer, and he's very clued into the North Indian system. It's a shame that the Hindi film industry doesn't make more use of his genius — that's their loss. In Chennai, they allow him to be who he is, and he's happy with it.' Recently, AR Rahman composed the music for the blockbuster Chhava and for Mani Ratnam's latest film, Thug Life. While Chhava was become one of the highest grossers of the year, Thug Life unfortunately failed to leave a mark at the ticket window.
