Meet actor, who romanced Karisma Kapoor, Mamta Kulkarni, challenged Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar, lost stardom due to..., is now... Today, we will talk about this actor, who made his Bollywood debut at the mere age of 15, and became a star following its first release. Despite working in handful of hit films and garnering appreciation, he lost into oblivion. He is none other than the 90s chocolate boy, Harish Kumar, who made his debut opposite Karisma Kapoor in 1991 film Prem Qaidi . It was Lolo's debut as well. The film was a success, catapulting both Harish and Karisma to stardom. Harish Kumar began his acting career at the tender age of 4. By the age of 15, he made his debut as a lead actor, garnering recognition not just in Bollywood but also in South cinema. He starred in several successful Bollywood films including Coolie No. 1 and Tirangaa . Following the release of Inteqam in 2001, Harish chose to step away from the world of glitz and glam. According to a report in Dainik Bhaskar, he faced a setback in his career due to sudden weight gain, leading to loss of work opportunities for him. However, the accurate information about his situation remains difficult to describe. As per a report by Film Stories, a YouTube Channel, Harish was experiencing extreme backpain initially considered minor, but it unfortunately worsened over time. Gradually, his condition declined to the point that he was bedridden. When doctors figured out, it came as a spinal injury that Harsh had since childhood which he was unaware of and it exacerbated over time leading to slip disc. He was put on medications and advised a two-year break from work, during which his weight increased and altered his appearance significantly. In 2001, Harish tried to make a comeback with film Naughty @40 , co-starring Govinda, but the film failed to revive his magic on-screen. The actor also starred in 2012-release Chaar Din Ki Chandni , which turned out to be a box office flop.

Leonardo DiCaprio's next film could be his best yet
Leonardo DiCaprio has worked with many master filmmakers during his time and he is adding to his repertoire with his newest collaboration with Paul Thomas Anderson. The actor and director are working on a crime drama titled One Battle After Another is a contemporary film that is said to be the There Will Be Blood auteur's "most commercial" project yet, per Deadline. DiCaprio is joined in the cast by Sean Penn, Benicio Del Toro, and Regina Hall, and filming has started on the production since it was first announced back in January. DiCaprio always has a keen eye when it comes to picking his projects, having earned the right to be choosy about his roles after his early rise to fame, and One Battle After Another could prove to be his best role yet. Little is known about One Battle After Another but Anderson's past filmography means that hopes are high for the production. A teaser for a teaser trailer was revealed on Thursday, 20 March that showed DiCaprio seemingly being made the primary carer of a baby, and the gun-heavy life that they lead. Watch the teaser trailer for One Battle After Another below: From 1999's Magnolia to his Oscar-winning There Will Be Blood, Anderson has always had a unique vision in film that makes him stand out from the crowd. Per a report from Film Stories, it is believed that the movie is an adaptation of Thomas Pynchon's 1990 novel Vineland. If it is, it would be the second adaptation of Pynchon's work that Anderson has done after Inherent Vice.

Burt Reynolds hated working on Boogie Nights and wanted to punch the director It would also mean that DiCaprio could be portraying ex-hippie Zoyd Wheeler, who goes on the run from federal agent Brock Vond. If that does indeed turn out to be the case then it'd be quite a different role for the actor to take on. The teaser for the teaser trailer doesn't quite reveal if this is the case, but fans are likely to find out in due course. The Romeo + Juliet star rarely puts a foot wrong, and in recent years has been more selective on who he works with and on what project. DiCaprio has, of course, become a muse for Martin Scorsese but he has also worked with the likes of Alejandro G. Iñárritu, Quentin Tarantino, and Christopher Nolan. Some of his most recent films have regularly led to him being nominated for Oscars, including The Wolf of Wall Street and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, but it was his performance in Iñárritu's survival drama The Revenant that led him to that much sought after Oscar (and broke the internet in the process). Anderson has brought several actors awards glory in the past, most famously Daniel Day-Lewis for his portrayal of oil man Daniel Plainview in There Will Be Blood. The director's follow-up films —The Master Inherent Vice, and Licorice Pizza— also received nominations at the Academy Awards, which means expectations are high for One Battle After Another to do the same. Only time will tell what can be expected from DiCaprio's latest film, but given the actor's prolific acting work throughout his career it is sure to be a treat and, hopefully, his best role yet. One Battle After Another is set to be released on 8 August, 2025.
