Barkha Bisht Joins Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi; Triptii Dimri's Coach Says She Chose Wrong Films After Animal
The legendary daily soap Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi has returned to television after years, and in just two weeks since its revival, the makers have wasted no time in turning up the drama. Instead of taking the slow-burn route, the new season kicked off with a gripping storyline from the very first episode, pulling viewers right back into the world of the Virani family. Now, in a twist that promises to shake Shanti Niketan to its core, actress Barkha Bisht is all set to make her grand entry, and her character is expected to bring a storm into Tulsi's (Smriti Irani) seemingly settled life.
Triptii Dimri's success was at an all-time high when she starred in Ranbir Kapoor's Animal. She was among the most sought-after young actresses in Bollywood. However, she drew criticism when she starred in films like Bad Newwz and Vicky Aur Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video. In a recent chat with the Hindustan Times, Saurabh Sachdeva, who has not only co-starred with Triptii but also has been her acting coach, opened up about where she went wrong.

Even celebrities aren't safe from today's AI deepfake videos. Actor R Madhavan recently shared how he was tricked by a rather convincing fake video showing football star Cristiano Ronaldo praising Indian cricketer Virat Kohli. So real was the clip that Madhavan shared it proudly — only to be corrected by Virat Kohli's wife, actor Anushka Sharma, who warned him it was AI-generated.
During the filming of Pardes in 1997, Shah Rukh Khan faced an unexpected personal crisis. His wife, Gauri Khan, was dealing with pregnancy complications, which forced SRK to urgently return to Delhi. Yet, even under pressure, Shah Rukh managed to complete the close-up shots for the iconic song Yeh Dil Deewana in just two hours before leaving.

Saurabh Sachdeva on rumours of Ranbir Kapoor's ‘tantrums' on Animal sets: ‘A good and professional actor will never...'
In Bollywood, rumours about actors throwing tantrums on set are common. Recently, similar speculation surrounded Ranbir Kapoor during the making of Animal, but his co-star Saurabh Sachdeva has now set the record straight. Sachdeva, who played Abid Haque, the second brother of Abrar (Bobby Deol) and Aziz (Babloo Prithiveeraj), in Sandeep Reddy Vanga 's 2023 action-drama, dismissed the talk as 'nonsense' in an interview with Filmygyan. 'A good and professional actor will never throw tantrums. It breaks the connection with your co-actors and affects the performance. Ranbir is a powerful and versatile actor, and he's too committed to the craft for anything like that,' he said. Saurabh praises Ranbir's professionalism The Dhadak 2 actor praised the Tamasha star's on-set demeanour, calling him 'always connected, humble, and respectful' towards everyone. 'He was fully immersed in his scenes, whether in an intense action sequence or an emotional exchange. His focus kept the energy high on set,' Sachdeva added. Did 'Baaghi 4' just go 'Animal'? Netizens can't stop comparing the teaser! Ranbir's performance in Animal was widely appreciated for blending high-octane drama with emotional nuance. For Sachdeva, working with him reaffirmed that true professionalism goes hand in hand with humility, even at the peak of stardom. Up next, Ranbir will be seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Love & War in 2026, alongside Alia Bhatt and Vicky Kaushal. He will also headline Nitesh Tiwari 's Ramayana trilogy, with Part 1 slated for release next year and Part 2 in 2027.

Coolie Gains More Multiplex Shows As Box Office Battle With Hrithik-Jr NTR's War 2 Heats Up
The competition between Coolie and War 2 is shaping up to be one of the year's most closely watched box office battles. The battle at the box office is heating up as Coolie steadily makes its mark against War 2 in Hindi. Initially, most single, dual, and triple screen properties across India were giving full preference to War 2, leaving only a few shows for Coolie. But the tide is shifting. Over the past four days, advance bookings for Coolie have surged, prompting cinemas to add more shows, according to Bollywood Hungama. The film, which was initially expected to earn Rs. 8 crore on its opening day, has now seen its capacity jump by 60 percent to Rs. 13 crore due to strong audience demand. While War 2 continues to lead overall Hindi screenings, Coolie has the potential to achieve higher occupancy rates in select locations where demand is strongest. Audience Demand Drives Multiplex Increase A leading multiplex executive told Bollywood Hungama, 'Coolie is performing well in tier 2 and tier 3 centres, and we are increasing the shows accordingly. Audience demand is clear, and we must match it." Another cinema owner, running a two-screen property, claimed that despite strict instructions from YRF not to give any show to Coolie, they managed to schedule two shows due to popular demand. Ticket sales for these shows have already begun picking up. The names of multiplex chains and cinema halls are being kept under wraps to protect business interests, but platforms like Book My Show are reflecting the increased availability of Coolie screenings, showing the film's growing presence in the Hindi market. The Clash Intensifies The competition between Coolie and War 2 is shaping up to be one of the year's most closely watched box office battles. With strong audience demand for both films, cinemas are quickly adjusting schedules. For moviegoers, this means more chances to catch Coolie on the big screen despite the YRF release dominating most venues. As box office numbers roll in, it will be intriguing to see whether Coolie can sustain momentum and challenge War 2's dominance in Hindi.
