With the promo already generating buzz online, fans have flooded social media with excitement and best wishes to the duo. Recently, Akanksha Puri opened up about her role and how her family reacted to the trailer. In an interview with the Times of India, Akanksha Puri said, 'It's an intense, thrilling, gripping show with so many emotional shades and nuanced layers to all the characters. Rose Garden has romance, pain, passion, and betrayal—everything in the right balance. I feel audiences will connect deeply with its rawness and relatability because it is very real and doesn't sugarcoat relationships or emotions." Meet Akanksha Puri's Character Geet In Rose Garden Reflecting her character in the show and what made her say 'yes,' Akanksha said that Geet is a bold and complex character that captivated her from the start. 'What drew me to Geet was her fearless honesty. She is bold, rebellious, and unapologetic about her choices, yet extremely vulnerable when it comes to love and family. She doesn't care about what society thinks, but deep down, she is seeking acceptance," she said. Diving deeper into her character, the actress added, 'I found Geet's journey fascinating because she is full of contrasts—she can fight the world yet breaks down alone. To interpret her depth, I tried to understand what her dreams are, where her pain comes from, and why she reacts so impulsively. I believe every action has an emotion behind it, and showing that honestly was my main aim." With Rose Garden, Akanksha is ready to show fans a new side of her acting prowess.

The censor board made 23 deletions from the film including some dialogue deletions and a complete scene and gave the film an A certificate. The movie, made on a budget of Rs 50 crore, only earned Rs 19 crore. According to a report by Pinkvilla, the makers have prepared to bring the fourth part of this franchise, which is going to be titled 'Masti 4'. Aftab will be seen in this film once again. Along with him, Vivek and Ritesh will also be seen in this franchise once again. When will Masti 4 release?

Paresh Rawal's wife Swaroop Sampat once called him 'dumb' as he didn't speak to her for nearly a year: ‘If I paid attention to anyone else..'
Paresh Rawal has long been a cherished name in Hindi cinema. With a career that has spanned decades, he has delighted audiences through his brilliant comic timing as well as strong antagonist roles. Whether it's the hilarious Baburao in 'Hera Pheri' or his unforgettable performances in films like 'Andaz Apna Apna', 'Chachi 420', 'Hungama', 'Garam Masala', 'Awara Paagal Deewana', 'Ready' or 'OMG', Paresh has carved out a versatile and respected place in Bollywood. But behind all the fame is a love story that is as sweet and funny as some of his best films. It's the story of how he fell in love with actress Swaroop Sampat – and didn't speak to her for nearly a year! Love at first sight – but no words The moment Paresh Rawal saw Swaroop Sampat for the first time, he knew she was the one. It happened at an Indian National Theatre festival where Swaroop was handing out brochures in a pink saree. Her father was the chief producer at the event. Paresh was there to perform with his college friends. Swaroop recalled the moment in an earlier interview with Bollywood Bubble and shared, 'I was wearing a pink saree and I was handing out brochures. And Paresh walks in with his friend and he says, he is going to marry me. But you know he is so dumb, he didn't talk to me for nearly a year.' Yes, she called him 'dumb' for not talking to her for so long! Theatre and acting brought them closer Paresh and Swaroop both had a strong love for acting and theatre. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Irish homeowners eligible for solar 'bonus' if they live in these eircodes Activ8 Learn More Undo This common interest helped them get close once they finally started talking. Swaroop had always been a big fan of Paresh's work and admired his stage performances. In a past chat with The Free Press Journal, she said that Paresh was serious from the beginning. He made it clear that he wouldn't be in a relationship unless there were plans to get married. She said,'Even during our courtship days, Paresh was the possessive one. He would not like it if I paid attention to anyone else. But now, after many years of knowing each other, he is relatively chilled out.' A long wait before tying the knot Paresh and Swaroop's love story began in the 1970s, but they didn't get married until 1987. They dated for 12 years before finally tying the knot. The reason for this long wait was quite simple – Paresh wanted to focus on building his career before getting married. Swaroop, on the other hand, had her own clear views. She didn't want to elope with Paresh, as she was the only daughter in her family, born after many years. For her, marriage had to happen with her parents' blessings and at the right time. Once Paresh's career was stable and both of them were ready, they had an intimate wedding in 1987. After their marriage, Paresh and Swaroop welcomed two sons – Aditya Rawal and Aniruddh Rawal Akshay Kumar Hints at Paresh Rawal's Return to Hera Pheri 3: 'Fingers Crossed'
