Rishi Kapoor's heroine got married four times, career got ruined after…, away from limelight for 33 years, she is…
There are very few people in the world of acting who get the recognition they deserve as soon as they debut, for which they have to struggle for years in the industry. Actress Zeba Bakhtiar got great recognition in 1991 with her debut film 'Hina'. Actress Zeba Bakhtiar started her career in 1991 with Rishi Kapoor's film 'Henna'. Earlier, Raj Kapoor had seen her in a show and decided to cast her in the film. But the actress did not get that recognition even after a blockbuster debut.
30 years ago, Pakistani actress Zeba Bakhtiar, who worked with Rishi Kapoor in the 1991 superhit film 'Henna', won the hearts of people as soon as she debuted. Her beautiful picture is still in people's minds. 'Henna' was Zeba's first film, and as soon as it became a superhit, Zeba became a superstar overnight, although after this film, Zeba worked in many other films. But she could not get the success again, which she got from this film.
After Hina, Zeba has worked in films like Mohabbat Ki Aarzoo, Stuntman, Jai Vikranta, Sargam, Mukadma, Chief Sahib , and Bin Roye . On TV, apart from Anarkali , she has worked in shows like Tansen, Laag, Mulakat, Muqaddas, Mehmaan, Mussoorie, Doordesh, Samjhauta Express, Hazaron Saal, and Pehli Si Mohabbat .
No one knows where Zeba Bakhtiar, who made a splash with her first film, is and what she is doing now. Zeba's real name is Shaheen Thay. Zeba is the daughter of Pakistani politician and former Attorney General, Yahya Bakhtiar. Very few people know that Zeba started her career on the small screen in Pakistan and played an important role in the TV serial Anarkali in 1988. Her acting in this show was highly praised. Raj Kapoor saw her in this show and cast her in a film under the RK banner.
Zeba worked with Rishi Kapoor in the film. She became his heroine in this film. Ashwini Bhave was in the lead role in this film. But the new Neyveli Zeba gave her a tough competition with her character. This was Zeba's debut film and was also a blockbuster. But after this, none of her films could do wonders.

Meet Ajay Devgn's sister, as beautiful as any Bollywood actress, her name is..., she works as...
Kajol, the 90s Bollywood queen, continues to dazzle with her timeless beauty and chic style, defying age at 50! But it's not just her – her entire family knows how to make a fashion statement. From her sister Tanisha Mukherjee's bold looks to daughter Nysa Devgan's youthful charm, they all turn heads. And let's not forget her sister-in-law Neelam Devgan, who's also got an amazing sense of style that's winning hearts! 'Neelam Devgan, Ajay Devgan's sister, is a fashionista who's been turning heads with her stylish avatars on Instagram. With her son Aman Devgan making his Bollywood debut in the film 'Aadaaz' alongside Rasha Thadani, Neelam's stylish flair is worth noticing. When it comes to dressing up, Neelam holds her own alongside her famous family members, including her sister-in-law Kajol and niece Nysa. But what's truly striking is the uncanny resemblance she shares with Ajay Devgan – they're like two peas in a pod! Neelam loves to share pictures with her family on social media, and her desi avatar is a standout on most occasions. Take, for instance, her stunning sleeveless black Anarkali with intricate black sequin stars and chikan work. Paired with a diamond necklace and bracelets, Neelam's style was absolute perfection. Interestingly, Kajol also showcased her desi glamour in a red saree, proving that the Devgan women know a thing or two about making a statement. In another picture, Neelam twinned with her son and sister-in-law Kajol in an all-black look, but with a stylish twist. While everyone else opted for plain black attire, Neelam wore a high-neck, sleeveless top adorned with sequin stars, paired with slit-cut pants and bold red lips. This look showcased her ability to add a touch of elegance to even the simplest of outfits. Neelam's style is versatile, and she looks just as stunning in a Kaftan as she does in other outfits. In one picture, while her family members wore yellow and white, Neelam chose a beautiful blue Kaftan that stood out amidst the crowd. Kajol, on the other hand, opted for a simple yet elegant green saree. Neelam's ability to make a statement with her clothing choices is truly impressive. In another family picture, Neelam again managed to stand out from the crowd. While the men wore traditional white kurtas and Nysa and Kajol wore yellow outfits, Neelam wore a stunning blue Anarkali with half sleeves and intricate silver embroidery. The matching net blue dupatta added a touch of elegance to her overall look, making her a vision to behold. Neelam's fashion sense isn't limited to elaborate outfits; she also knows how to make a statement in simple clothes. In two different looks, she was seen wearing a black kurta with silver embroidery around the neckline and a blue full-sleeve kurta with beautiful white embroidery. Paired with a statement necklace, these outfits showcased her ability to elevate simple clothing into something truly special.

Hina Khan is content being a minimalistic bride: ‘Love & care made me Glowwwww'
Hina Khan was a sight for sore eyes as a Manish Malhotra bride during her court marriage with Rocky Jaiswal. Instead of going for a bright heavy lehenga for her big day, Hina looked absolutely radiant in an opal green handloom saree with a blush pink border, paired with a pink blouse. Through her latest Instagram post, the 'Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai' actress revealed that her minimalistic bridal look was exactly what she had envisioned for her wedding day. Sharing some unseen pictures from her wedding, Hina wrote on the photo-sharing app, 'It was so reassuring to see that I Managed to remain as Minimalistic as I envisioned myself on this beautiful and personal landmark of a day. No heavy lehengas, heavy mkup or heavy jewellery, no extensive hairdos or elaborated accessories.' The diva added that she did not need the glitz and glamour to make her feel special as she had all the love and care in the world to make her glow. 'Didn't need to do any of it, as from within, I have been content with the purity of Love and Care all around me. Only that mattered. And that made me Hina added. Hina's bridal saree was accompanied by a soft pink veil with a scalloped hem, which she placed on her head with open hair. Encapsulating the precious moment, the saree included Hina and Rocky's names in embroidery. She accessorized the look with some beautiful Kundan jewellery - a Neckpiece, earrings, bangles, mang tika, and earrings. For the makeup, she went for a golden eyeshadow with light Kajal and mascara, with pink-toned blush and lip colour. On Wednesday, Hina left everyone pleasantly surprised as she announced her wedding to long-time boyfriend Rocky. Dropping a string of photos from the low-key ceremony, Hina penned on social media, 'From two different worlds, we built a universe of love. Our differences faded, our hearts aligned, creating a bond to last lifetimes. We are our home, our light, our hope and together, we transcend all barriers. Today, our union is forever sealed in love and law. We seek your Blessings and Wishes as Wife and Husband. #MM'sMinimalistBride #TwinFlame #OurLoveStory #SoulBound A special piece from the one and only MM.'

Lounge Loves: ‘Fake Podcast', Brave Man Single Origin coffee and more
I have only now discovered the social media personality and actor Satish Ray. As happens with mindless scrolling, it sometimes throws up gems. In my case, it was a reel of Ray as a Pakistani general, Janab Maqsaad, in Fake Podcast with Abhishek Singh (he plays Prashna Kumar, the host asking the questions). Hooked, I quickly moved to watching the whole episode on YouTube. Halfway through, the penny dropped. Ray is the techie friend Siddharth in Panchayat, season 2. I did say I am late to the party. I have since watched a few more episodes of Fake Podcast. Particularly hilarious is the one where Ray plays a one-sided lover Guddu Premi, clad in a T-shirt which reads 'I love you Pooja'. His eyes have an impish glint. The actor has great taste too—his apartment is featured in a design magazine. Yes, that's called drowning in a rabbit hole. I have a strong memory of madhabilata, the fragrant Rangoon creeper from the house I grew up in. In summer, the heady scent of the flowers would invade the neighbourhood, especially in the evenings. Over the years I've tried growing it in my small balcony in Mumbai without much luck. But I never gave up. Last year, I brought home a new plant from a trusted local nursery. After many months of waiting, which involved making several calls to my parents on tips to grow flowers, and consulting the family WhatsApp group, my madhabilata finally rewarded me with its first buds last week. The flowers may not be as many as from my memory, but are enough to remind me of those carefree summer evenings. Your therapist gives you guidance, mine gives me that, and granola too. It started during one session when I was famished and asked if she had something to munch on. She had just baked a fresh batch at home. Delicious. Next time, it had raisins and I detest them, but I still gobbled it. At the third session, I brought it up, and she said she had made some, but she hadn't offered it since it got burned. I still insisted I wanted it. Last session, she said, 'I couldn't make granola this time. Next time I will.' I melted. I wasn't even a granola person earlier. But if she offers again, I'll lap it up. The session doesn't feel any less fulfilling without the granola, but it does add a crunchy element I've grown to like. A perfect weekend getaway to a coffee estate in Chikmagalur—unseasonably sunny days, cool nights, and the warmest of friends—was made even better by the discovery of one of the best coffees I've ever had (with the disclaimer that I am more of a chai person but will have anything with caffeine in it). I found portable pourover sachets of the Brave Man Single Origin coffee from the Urvinkhan Estate, where we were staying, in my room and proceeded to brew a cup immediately. It turned out to be the richest, most fragrant cup of coffee ever, the aroma filling the entire room for hours. The estate manager even gave me a box of sachets that I'm running through rapidly. You don't have to visit the estate to buy the coffee (though this is highly recommended too!), and can order it by DMing them on Instagram.
