Despite being in a multi-starrer which features big names from the industry such as Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Jacqueline Fernandez among others, Soundarya managed to have her own spotlight, emerging as a true internet sensation after the film arrived in theatres a week ago. Well, Soundarya has now revealed a lesson her co-star and Bollywood's Khiladi Akshay taught her on set.

In a chat with Instant Bollywood, when asked what she would like to remember from the sets of Housefull 5, Soundarya Sharma revealed, 'You know, Akshay sir has always told me that keep working hard. Chhota kaam ho, bada kaam ho, kaam se kaam aata hai. Toh jabhi bhi hum scene shoot kar rahe hote the, aur main sochti thi 'achha, main kab bolungi, kab aayega'. Aage kaam ke discussions hote the, toh humesha unhone bola hai ki mera yahi funda raha hai, kaam se kaam aayega.' Wise words indeed!

Soundarya also gave a shout out to Jacqueline Fernandez. The two raised the temperatures with their belly dance moves and hotness when they burnt the dance floor in Housefull 5's chartbuster hit song Laal Pari. Soundarya shared, 'Jacqueline (Fernandez) also said, the other day in the trailer launch 'there is so much to learn from you' and I'm like how sweet of her to say, because I'm learning from everybody, everybody so senior to me.'
For those who have not seen the film yet, Housefull 5 follows the story of three men named Jolly, who come together on a cruise with their wives claiming that they are the sole heirs of a rich man who died of a heart attack.

Bigg Boss 16 Fame Ankit Gupta Issues Statement Amid Dating Rumours, Calls It "Absurd And Disturbing"

New Delhi: Bigg Boss 16 fame Ankit Gupta has reacted to the link-up rumours that have been making the rounds amid his breakup with Priyanka Chahar Choudhary. They have worked together in Udaariyaan. In a detailed Instagram note, Ankit Gupta has called the speculations about his dating life 'absurd' and 'disturbing.' He said, 'There comes a point where silence starts to feel like consent and I'm no longer okay with that. Over the past few months, I've seen countless stories, edits, and assumptions being made about my personal life — with no truth, no context, and absolutely no respect for boundaries. The recent attempt to link me with someone I don't even know, just because they appeared in the same frame, is not just absurd - it's disturbing." Ankit Gupta added, 'Let me say this very clearly. I am a private person. What I choose to share, I share this intention. But what I will not accept is this growing culture of inventing narratives, linking me with strangers, or using my name and face to gain views, likes and attention.' He continued, 'From this point on, any individual or platform spreading false, defamatory, or invasive content about me will be met with legal action - including defamation cases. Having a public life does not mean my dignity is public property. So let's be clear: I'm not here to play along, I'm here to protect what's mine. So before you publish or forward anything ask yourself: is it real, is it respectful, or is it nonsense?" View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ankit Gupta (@6_ankitgupta) The statement comes a day after a video of Ankit Gupta with a mystery girl surfaced online. In the clip, the actor is seen making his way out of a restaurant. He poses for the paps before leaving with the woman. Fans were quick to speculate that she was Ankit's new girlfriend.
