Harsh Gujral On Jannat Zubair's Gameplay In The Traitors: ‘She Is Really Smart'
Stand-up comedian Harsh Gujral, who was part of the debut season of Karan Johar's Traitors India on Prime Video, opened up about his experience on the show and had kind words for fellow contestant Jannat Zubair. The show wrapped up with Uorfi Javed and Nikita Luther emerging as the winners out of 20 contestants. Harsh, who was revealed to be one of the traitors, was eliminated just before the finale.
Reflecting on the game, he acknowledged Jannat Zubair for her sharp instincts, noting that she was among the first to suspect his true role and praised her for her intelligence and gameplay.
A clip from Viral Bhayani features Harsh Gujral saying, 'Jannat ko to phir…naam kyun aisa rakha hai wahi bhej diya. Jannat ko marna bhi us time zaruri tha. Meine sorry bola hai. Woh to ek strong contender thi uss time pe. Woh influence bhi is tareeke se ki woh acha khel rahi thi. Woh iss tarah ki ladki thi ki bina kisi shor sharabe ke acha khel rahi thi. (Murdering Jannat on the show was crucial and I said sorry. She was a strong contender and was playing well. She played without making any noise). " On the show, Jannat discovered Harsh had been recruited as the new Traitor, which prompted her eviction the same night. Despite her instinct, she failed to eliminate him.
Following her eviction, Jannat Zubair told Tellychakkar that she regrets not revealing Harsh's identity. She said, 'I think mujhe sabse jyada regret us episode ka hai ki main Harsh ko bahar nahi nikal payi… Harsh ek recruited traitor hai." She emphasised that her suspicions were correct and captured in the video diaries from the night, but circumstances prevented her from acting in time. Her removal occurred the same night she planned to face Harsh at the breakfast table.
Apart from Harsh and Jannat, the first season featured Karan Kundra, Sudhanshu Pandey, Anshula Kapoor, Jasmine Bhasin, Uorfi Javed, Ashish Vidyarthi, Sahil Salathia, Nikita Luther, Purav Jha, Raftaar, Raj Kundra, Elvish Yadav, Sumukhi Suresh, Mukesh Chhabra, Sufi Motiwala, Maheep Kapoor, Apoorva Mukhija (Rebel Kid), and Elnaaz Norouzi.

Panchayat actress Sanvikaa aka Rinki on the show losing out on its innocence: 'People will hate...'
Actress Sanvikaa, who essays the role of Rinki in the superhit streaming series 'Panchayat', feels that as the show progresses with subsequent seasons, it holds on to its innocence which is one of the show's core values. 5 years ago, when season 1 of 'Panchayat' was released, the show tugged at the heart-strings of the audience owing to its simple, flavourful storytelling and the innocence of its characters. However, as the narrative progressed, many elements made their way to the show, with politics being the prominent theme since the last 2 seasons. Why is Panchayat season 4 getting mixed reviews? The actress recently spoke with IANS. When asked that given the political elements picking up in the show, can the show tread away from innocence in the longer run, she said, 'I don't think so. Though the key characters are competing with each other if either of them is in need, even the opposition team will come and help and support'. She further mentioned, 'So I think even in villages right now, though there will be opposition, though people will hate each other, but when there are crises, or like when someone needs any help, no matter how much they hate that person, they will always go and help that person'. She told IANS, 'So I think that innocence is not lost. It is just like being masked with the situations that people are having right now, like the politics. But if we talk about innocence, I think it's still there'. Why did Sanvikaa's character Rinki have less screen time in Panchayat Season 4? Earlier, the actress had spoken up on the trajectory of character in the show through 4 seasons. She shared that it was the conscious choice of the makers to gradually unravel the layers of her character, and not in one go. In the first season of the show, Sanvikaa's character is not seen until the last sequence of the season 1 finale episode. Her character has grown over a time period, and this time around she is more hands-on and fully involved with the narrative of the show. Talking about the same, she said earlier, 'I think the makers wanted it to be in such a way, where the character is slowly progressing. They never wanted to give it like in the first go itself. That's why conscious efforts have been made to show Rinky in bits and pieces only'. 'And, with time we are discovering who Rinky is, what she stands for and how her relations with the family and with her love life and whatever she's dealing with in her life, that is being discovered in a very slow process', she added. 'Panchayat' is available to stream on Prime Video.

I'm a physical storyteller: John Cena on 'Heads of State' and his love for action-comedy genre
Action comedy is the language of the world and has been popular since the era of Charlie Chaplin, says Hollywood star John Cena , who considers himself a physical storyteller. "Heads of State", his latest movie on Prime Video, offers another glimpse into the niche that Cena has created for himself in the realm of physical comedy, where he often blends his imposing presence with a sense of humour. In the past, the WWE wrestler-turned-actor has showcased his impeccable comic timing in films and shows such as "The Suicide Squad", "Blockers", "Peacemaker", "Trainwreck" and "Ricky Stanicky". "I'm a physical storyteller. WWE is entertainment through physical stories. And what I love the most about action comedy is that it's the language of the world. It explains the success of the greats like Jackie Chan, even Charlie Chaplin -- before there were words in the movies. It is truly the language of the world," Cena told PTI in an interview. "Heads of State", which premiered on streaming service Prime Video on Wednesday, is directed by Ilya Naishuller of "Nobody" fame. The movie reunites Cena with his "The Suicide Squad" co-star Idris Elba and also stars Priyanka Chopra Jonas in a pivotal role. In the movie, Cena plays the role of Will Derringer, a former action star who becomes the President of the United States. Elba portrays Sam Clarke, the British Prime Minister. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 'I couldn't hear my grandchildren anymore...' – Find out how she did it. Hearing Magazine Undo Cena said he loved working on "Heads of State" as it allowed him to display the skills he has learned over the years. "Being able to take the skills that I've learned as a physical storyteller and modify my skill set to be on screen, I love 'Heads of State' because even if you don't understand what we're saying, you get the story and the action. Then you share the laughs... that's why I lean into action comedy," he added. The movie also takes forward Cena's chemistry with Elba, which they established in James Gunn's "The Suicide Squad" (2021). While Cena's Derringer comes across as impulsive and chaotic, Elba's Clarke is more controlled and straightforward in showcasing his authority in the movie. Cena credited the writers, Josh Appelbaum & Andre Nemec and Harrison Query, for establishing their dynamics on paper for "Heads of State". "Writers write good stories, well-thought out stories. I don't commit to projects unless I read it. James Gunn is the only cold-call. If he says we are getting the band back together, it is a yes and I read it afterwards. Every other project I want to read," he said. Priyanka Chopra Shares Fun BTS Moments with John Cena & Idris Elba from 'Heads of State' A good story has layered characters and is "brave enough to lean into the flaws", he added. "Every character has to be flawed because then you want to root for them. If a character is too tough, too perfect, with no shortcomings, you don't want to root for that guy. So I think it's just being brave enough to lean into the words of a good writer," Cena said. According to Cena, one of the joys of working in the world of entertainment is getting to meet new people with every project. In the case of "Heads of State", it was an opportunity to collaborate with Priyanka , an actor who began her journey around the same time as Cena in the early 2000s. In the movie, Priyanka essays the role of MI6 agent Noel Bisset "That's what's brilliant about being in the creative business... you never know who you're going to meet. You never know the experiences you'll have, and I just try to do my best, to be decent to work with, and in the downtimes, share moments that can make us connect more. "And we certainly did that in this movie. And for that, I'm grateful," he said. "Heads of State" also stars Paddy Considine, Stephen Root , Carla Gugino, Jack Quaid and Sarah Niles. The movie is produced by Peter Safran and John Rickard. Cena and Elba also serve as executive producers.
