After KGF, Mouni Roy Grooves To Sangeeta Bijlani's 'Gali Gali Mein' With Neha Dhupia At Kolkata Event
Mouni Roy showcased her dance skills at an awards show in Kolkata, performing to Gali Gali Mein with Neha Dhupia. She will next be seen in The Bhootnii, releasing on May 1.
Mouni Roy offered a glimpse of how terrific a dancer she is by grooving in front of a live audience at an awards show in Kolkata. The Bhootnii actor flaunted some of her best moves to the Gali Gali Mein song from Tridev (1989) on the stage with host Neha Dhupia. For the unversed, the actor starred in a remake of the track that was a part of Yash's KGF 1 in 2018.
Mouni looked beautiful in a saree, which she accessorised with a traditional maang teeka as she shared the stage with Neha. Upon request, she danced to Sangeeta Bijlali's version of Gali Gali Mein, which also featured Jackie Shroff. As Mouni danced, Neha was seen trying to match her steps. Watch the video here:

Mouni will be next seen in The Bhootnii, co-starring Sanjay Dutt. During the promotions, social media users trolled her for allegedly making drastic facial transformation, claiming that she underwent another round of cosmetic surgery. Some speculated she had opted for another lip enhancement, while others on the internet guessed she had received forehead Botox after spotting a strange dent on her head.
When asked about how she deals with such brutal remarks, the TV-turned-film actor told IANS, 'Kuch nahin. Dekhti hee nahi. Let everyone do their job…I do not pay attention to such remarks. If you hide behind a screen to troll others and if you find happiness in that so be it."
On the professional front, Mouni Roy will be seen as the nerve-chilling ghost named 'Mohabbat', in the upcoming horror action-comedy, The Bhootnii. The film was initially slated to release on April 18. However, it was pushed to May 1 to avoid clash with Akshay Kumar's Kesari: Chapter 2. The film also stars Palak Tiwarii and Sunny Singh.

Mouni Roy Steps Into Her Noir Era In A Dramatic Black Gown
Fresh off the Cannes red carpet, Mouni Roy is making fashion waves (again). Whether it's a big event or a themed photoshoot, the Bhootni actor knows how to top the sartorial charts. On another page of her fashion diaries, Mouni Roy embraced the 'noir' aesthetic. She slipped into a breathtaking gown from the shelves of designer label Alpana Neeraj. Her OOTD featured a black corseted top with a sweetheart neckline. The strapless wonder was a fitted masterpiece that hugged Mouni in all the right places. Silver sequinned geometric patterns adorned the bodice and looked beautiful. Sparkly, bejewelled elements added the right amount of pizzazz to the outfit. The floor-skimming netted skirt in a brilliant black shade deserves all the attention. The sheer fabric offered a risque twist, but Mouni carried it elegantly. Tiny sequins dominating the flowy skirt twinkled like bright stars, befitting of a star like Mouni. Thanks to her stylist Rishika Devnani, the 39-year-old looked no less than a princess in the fit. View this post on Instagram A post shared by mon (@imouniroy) Mouni Roy let her outfit steal the limelight as she opted for zero accessories. To be honest, we loved how she balanced drama and subtlety so gracefully. Roy's flawless skin served as the perfect canvas for her makeup. She went with a matte base and added some rosy blush and soft contour. Going for nude lips was simply the right move as she went heavy on the eyes. An intense interplay of eyeliner and kohl, coupled with mascara-coated fluttery lashes, contributed to the fierce smokey effect. She sealed her glamorous avatar with a messy bun, leaving two strands of hair open as they framed her face beautifully. Roy's sartorial outings are truly meant for the books. Do you agree?

Naseeruddin Shah reveals he turned down numerous songs after ‘Oye Oye' became a blockbuster hit: ‘I'm a terrible dancer…'
Veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah may be one of India's most revered performers, but his sudden surge to mass popularity came from an unexpected place, an iconic song-and-dance number in the 1989 hit Tridev. The track 'Oye Oye' became a national sensation, and along with it, Naseeruddin found himself in the middle of mainstream adulation. In an old interview with Lehren Retro, the actor candidly spoke about the ironic nature of his overnight fame following the film. Despite becoming the face of the wildly popular song, Naseeruddin revealed that he never saw himself as a dancer—or even a singer, for that matter. He said, 'Infact after song Oye Oye, I was flooded with only offers like that. People wanted me to do the same thing. But I didn't fall into that trap because I'm a terrible dancer. Oye Oye worked because they didn't expect that I would be even able to do one step right. And that's why they were shocked and it worked. Anyways, there is no dearth of people praising you in this industry.' Reflecting on the period when lip-syncing to playback songs was the norm, Naseeruddin shared how uncomfortable the experience was for him. 'Now it has stopped happening, but there was a time when it used to happen a lot. I was asked to sing, and that was equivalent to hundred deaths. I'm really bad at singing, among the worst singers of song in Hindi. Perhaps because I never thought that I would have to play hero in films, or sing songs or worse, romance actresses younger than my daughter's age.' Also Read | Naseeruddin Shah slams 'sickening' Bollywood films that celebrate hyper masculinity: 'Big tragedy if they're considered…' For Naseeruddin Shah, the world of commercial Hindi cinema was never the end goal. His aspirations had always been grounded in realism, in character roles—something that didn't involve elaborate dance routines or lip-synced songs. 'I had thought I would end up becoming a character actor. Will play the role of a lawyer, doctor, cop or an elder brother. And that's why I'm terrible at commercial acting, because I never trained for it.' The actor, known for his brutally honest take on the film industry, went on to admit that he's never been fond of his performances in the commercial space. He has often expressed his disconnect with the formulaic aspects of mainstream cinema. In the same interview, Naseeruddin added that filmmakers began typecasting him into intense, often melodramatic roles. They only imagined him as the actor who could perhaps scream and cry on screen and he was fed up by that and didn't know how to bring novelty to such mediocrity.
