Akansha Ranjan Kapoor recalls 'sitting at home for 8 months' after her debut with Guilty: ‘It took me a year to recover'
Actor Akansha Ranjan Kapoor made her Bollywood debut with the film Guilty. However, soon after that, the pandemic took over the country. In an interview with Free Press Journal, Akansha recalled how she had no work for eight months after her debut and how her life went 'kaput'. (Also Read: Alia Bhatt has a sweet response to BFF Akansha Ranjan Kapoor's old audition tape from 2014) Akansha recounted how she sat at home for months due to Covid, and said, "Guilty released on 6 March 2020, and just nine days later, the country went into lockdown. My whole life, which had moulded itself around that one big moment, went kaput. I ended up sitting at home for the next eight months. During those initial days, I was getting calls for meetings, new projects, and even another film with the same production house. But suddenly, everything went silent. It took me a year to recover from that." She revealed that she has now become more conscious about her choices and wants to do quality work that creates an impact, rather than just being one of 18 actors standing in a frame. She further spoke about the pain of being in front of the camera, and said, 'I'll send a voice note and immediately think, 'I can't stand my own voice.' I obsess over the smallest things, like why my hand was positioned a certain way in a scene. My sister tells me, 'No one will notice,' but I just can't let it go. This is the pain of being in front of the camera. It's the nature of the medium. But I wouldn't have it any other way. I just hope to find a better balance and not be so harsh on myself." Meanwhile, Akansha is currently seen in the show Gram Chikitsalay, which revolves around the story of a young, idealistic, and brilliant Dr Prabhat, who takes charge of a neglected Primary Health Centre in a North Indian village, hoping to bring about much-needed changes — only to realise it is he who will have to change before anything else. Helmed by Deepak Kumar Mishra, the show also stars Amol Parashar, Vinay Pathak, Garima Vikrant Singh, and others in key roles. It is available to watch on Prime Video.

Woman Trespasses Aditya Roy Kapur's Home In Bandra, Case Registered
Last Updated: A 47-year-old woman reportedly entered Aditya Roy Kapur's residence in Bandra, Mumbai, on Monday and claimed she brought gifts for the actor. On Monday, a 47-year-old woman allegedly entered Bollywood actor Aditya Roy Kapur's residence in Bandra West, Mumbai, reports Free Press Journal. The actor was reportedly away on a shoot at the time, and his domestic help Sangita Pawar answered the door. The woman, later identified as Gazala Jhakaria Siddique, claimed that she had brought clothes and gifts for the actor. Upon Aditya Roy Kapur's return, he did not recognize the woman and immediately contacted the society manager. Based on a complaint filed by the actor's maid, the Khar police registered a case against Siddique for alleged house trespass on May 26. Free Press Journal reported that Aditya Roy Kapur was away for a shoot, and his domestic help, Sangita Pawar, 49, was alone at home. Around 6 pm, the doorbell rang. When the domestic help answered, she found a woman at the door. The woman asked if it was the residence of actor Aditya Roy Kapur. When Sangita confirmed it, the woman said she had brought clothes and other gifts for the actor. The maid believed her and let her in. The maid then asked what time she was supposed to come, and the woman replied, '6 pm." Soon after, Aditya Roy Kapur returned home. The domestic help told him about the woman, and her intention to meet him. However, upon seeing her, the actor said he did not recognise her. The woman tried to approach the actor, prompting him to leave the house and contact society manager Jayashree Dunkdu. Dunkdu then informed the actor's manager, Shruti Rao, who quickly arrived at Rizvi Heights and contacted the Khar police. When the maid asked the woman to leave, she refused and insisted on staying at the actor's residence. The Khar police soon arrived and began an inquiry. According to the report in Free Press Journal, the woman identified herself as Gazala Jhakaria Siddique, a 47-year-old resident of Dubai. However, when asked about the purpose of her visit and how she arrived at the actor's residence, she evaded the questions. Based on a preliminary investigation, the police concluded that she had unlawfully entered the actor's home with possible criminal intent. An FIR was filed against Siddique under Section 331(2) (Punishment for house-trespass or house-breaking) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita. On the professional front, Aditya Roy Kapur will next be seen in Anurag Basu's upcoming film, Metro…In Dino, which also stars Sara Ali Khan, Anupam Kher, Pankaj Tripathi, Konkona Sen Sharma, Fatima Sana Shaikh, Ali Fazal, and Neena Gupta.
