Renuka Shahane reveals that Ashutosh Rana married her because their spiritual Guru chose her as 'bahu', she married him because she wanted kids

Ashutosh Rana and Renuka Shahane make a wonderful couple and the duo serve an inspiration to many with their partnership. While they were dating each other for three years, they were scared to tie the knot. However, they eventually got married as Rana's guruji suggested so and told him that he has found a 'bahu'. Renuka and Ashutosh both have been in the industry for so many years and known for their powerful performances in a number of projects. Renuka opened up on their married in an interview on Gauahar Khan's podcast, MaaNoranjan. She said, "Although, Rana ji and I are very much in love with each other, we were also happy with our own independent lives. And, marriage is quite a scary proposition. Being in the public eye and then two of us getting married at the peak of our careers can be difficult. One feels that nothing should go wrong, not just in the relationship, but even when you are into the marriage, you don't want anything bad to happen. " Further revealing the reason why they got married, the 'Hum Aapke Hai Koun...' actor said, "The only reason why Rana ji got married to me was because of his spiritual guru, he told him to. While we were dating, his guruji told him that I have chosen a bahu for you. He was scared, who is this person? He didn't know that guruji was talking about me only. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo Guruji said that she is a good girl, you should ask for her hand." She added, "Rana ji was clueless, but he actually did tell this to my mother. My mom was very shocked. She said, 'Guruji ne bataaya islie aap karahe hain ya aapko sach mein karni hai (You are marrying her because guruji said so or you really want to marry her)?'' Renuka though, had her own reasons to say yes. She said, "But, I got married only because I wanted kids. I was very happy because my idea of having a stable family background for my kids was very clear in my head. Rana ji being a very family oriented person, you want the father of your child to be like that.'

Shiny Doshi: Initially, I entered this industry to earn money

Shiny Doshi reveals her initial foray into acting was driven by financial need rather than passion. The actress gained recognition through Saraswatichandra, a Sanjay Leela Bhansali production, marking her serious acting debut. It's been over a year since Shiny Doshi was last seen on television, following her role in Pandya Store. Since then, the actress has been noticeably absent from screens — a decision she says was not intentional. Shiny has been acting for over a decade now, but she never planned to be an actor in the first place. Sharing about it, she says, 'Honestly, initially I entered this industry to earn money. I wasn't even sure if I wanted to do TV or films — I just took up whatever came my way. Then Saraswatichandra happened, and things changed.' The Sanjay Leela Bhansali-produced show gave her visibility, audience appreciation, and her first serious acting experience. 'That was the first time I learned acting — on set, without any formal training.' The early phase was financially and emotionally tough. The actress says, 'Payments in TV usually come after 90 days. I was working almost every day, but couldn't take on other projects. My savings were gone quickly. I had no contacts in Mumbai. My mother was the only person I could rely on.' Shiny moved to Mumbai around the age of 23, and the adjustment was significant. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với sàn môi giới tin cậy IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo 'The energy and drive you have at that age is different. I don't think I could go through that kind of struggle now.' She admits that fear and pressure shaped many of her early choices. 'My mother had supported me completely — she'd fought with family to help me pursue this. That brought a lot of pressure. Sometimes, the fear of failure held me back. Maybe I didn't give my 100% all the time because I was afraid.' Asked about when she plans to return to TV, she says, 'I'm not in a hurry. I'm open to the right project to come my way to take it up."

Parth Samthaan receives a heartfelt farewell from the team as he wraps shooting for CID 2

CID was a great show for all the 90s kids. It has been running since 1998 and has a massive fan base. Shivaji Satam , Dayanand Shetty, Aditya Srivastava, Narendra Gupta, and others captivated audiences with their performances. Everyone has had a connection with each character. Many people were heartbroken when the show went off the air in 2018. People wanted the show to come back. They asked the creators to bring back ACP Pradyuman, Daya, Abhijeet, Dr. Salunke, and others. Following his exit, Parth Samthaan appeared in the show as ACP Ayushmaan. His previous entry had a mixed response. People were unhappy that he was replacing ACP Pradyuman on the CID team. However, this was not true. ACP Pradyuman returned, and it was Ayushmaan who assisted him. Parth's supporters were delighted to see him in the legendary show. However, he also disclosed that he was only with the squad for a short period and would be leaving soon. He has now shot his final episode, and the team has planned a farewell party for him on the sets of CID 2. Shivaji Satam, Hrishikesh Pandey, Aditya Srivastava, and others attended his cake cutting ceremony. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo On Parth's last day on site, they got him a unique CID-themed cake.
