The love story of Team India's star fast bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar is no less than a film story. This relationship, which started with an innocent childhood friendship, became so strong over time that eventually both of them got married. The first meeting with Nupur happened when she came to his house on rent. From there the love story started. Bhuvneshwar Kumar is not only counted among the most reliable bowlers of India, but his love life has also been equally special and in the news. The story of Bhuvi, who is playing for RCB in IPL 2025, is as interesting as his career. Actually, love knocked in the life of Bhuvi, a resident of Meerut, when he was just 13 years old. A family came to live in his house on rent, and 11-year-old Nupur, living in the same house, stole Bhuvi's heart. Actually Bhuvneshwar and Nupur first met in Meerut, when Nupur's father was transferred there and he rented a part of Bhuvi's house. At that time Bhuvneshwar was 13 years old and Nupur was 11 years old. Actually, in the beginning, the relationship between the two was just a simple friendship, but this friendship gradually turned into a special relationship. Nupur told in an interview that she always saw Bhuvi immersed in cricket. Whether he was inside the house or outside, he used to practice bowling. Nupur liked this dedication and passion of Bhuvi very much and from here a deep relationship started developing between them. Both the families also knew each other, so this relationship became stronger with time. Actually, Bhuvi and Nupur also maintained this childhood friendship during their school and college days. Nupur has always been calm and sensible, while Bhuvi was very focused on making a career in cricket. They never showed off their relationship in the media or on social media, but their relationship had become very deep inside. After understanding each other and being together for about 11 years, the two finally got married in 2017. The pair of Bhuvi and Nupur is still known as an ideal couple among the fans. Nupur has always supported Bhuvneshwar, whether he is struggling with injury or taking a break from cricket.

The Royals: Directors Priyanka Ghose and Nupur Asthana on working with Zeenat Aman and navigating the world of entertainment
When Aviraaj Singh, the polo-playing prince of fictional Morpur, essayed by Ishaan Khatter, meets Sophia Shekhar (Bhumi Pednekar), an ambitious entrepreneur, in the forthcoming web-series, The Royals, sparks fly. Steering the push and pull dynamics of the characters' romance, as their personalities clash in spite of being drawn to each other, are the directors of this new Netflix series, Priyanka Ghose and Nupur Asthana. Priyanka was busy putting finishing touches to The Night Manager series (2023), the Hindi-language adaptation of John le Carré's novel which she co-directed with Sandeep Modi, when she was approached to direct The Royals. 'It's almost serendipitous. When a prior commitment for another show did not work out, I dived into The Royals,' says Priyanka, who started intensive preparation for it in October 2023 and shooting in January 2024. After she finished shooting the episodes assigned to her, in May 2024, Nupur stepped in to direct the remaining two. The series, which is described as 'a coming-of-age royal rom-com', releases on Netflix on May 9. Created by Rangita and Ishita Pritish Nandy, the eight-episode series unfolds as a contemporary romantic saga where the old-world charm of palaces and Indian royalty come face-to-face with glass-walled boardrooms. The show, about two people from completely different backgrounds, nailed the casting by roping in Ishaan and Bhumi as its romantic leads. Priyanka, who did several readings with the lead actors, says: 'As Ishaan and Bhumi embody Aviraaj and Sophia respectively, they brought different aspects of their personality to the table and that's enriching.' The Royals's ensemble cast also features Zeenat Aman, Sakshi Tanwar, Nora Fatehi, Dino Morea, Milind Soman and Chunky Panday. Nupur was initially reluctant to take up the series as she was disappointed that another show she had worked on for months was shelved. She was, however, excited to work with some of her former collaborators Rangita and Ishita. 'Rangita wanted to mount the story big and she got those beautiful locations in Rajasthan for the show,' says Nupur, who shot her portions in Mumbai and Rajasthan. Recounting her experience of shooting in Rajasthan in winter, Rangita talks about a scene that required Ishaan to come out of a swimming pool. 'Even though it was bitter cold and Ishaan was shivering, he ungrudgingly took a dip in the pool for multiple takes,' says Nupur, sounding a bit apologetic about it. She is equally apologetic about Aman having to wait for five hours for a shot. 'For over two days, I was shooting a ball dance sequence which featured almost the entire cast. Zeenat ji came to Versova for the rehearsals even though she didn't have to. On the day of its shoot, she had to wait for her shot for five hours. When I apologised, she said: 'Darling, you are doing your job',' recalls Nupur and adds that assurance was a stress-buster for her. 'It was her way of empowering me,' Nupur says. Priyanka and Nupur both started their journey in the world of performing arts when they were in college. Priyanka was studying at Kolkata 's St Xavier's College, where she did her post-graduation in economics, when she started acting and directing plays as did Nupur while studying English literature at Delhi 's Lady Shri Ram College for Women and later while pursuing her post-graduation in Social Communications Media at Mumbai's Sophia Polytechnic. The first time Priyanka found herself on a movie set is when she was selected as an intern for Mira Nair's The Namesake (2006). After moving to Mumbai in 2005, she worked as an assistant director on several movies including Karzzzz (2008), Rush (2012) and Anjaana Anjaani (2010). Later, she worked for almost a decade as a director of ad films and music videos. The first large format show she worked on was when she directed several sequences in Aarya (2020). After her masters, Nupur assisted director Ketan Mehta and subsequently, became the chief assistant director on his Aar Ya Paar (1997). Her career got a major boost when she wrote and directed teen drama Hip Hip Hurray (1998-2001) and, later, YRF Television's Mahi Way (2010). Nupur debuted as a feature director with Mujhse Fraaandship Karoge (2011) and followed it up with romantic comedy Bewakoofiyaan (2014). 'Today, streaming video services have created more opportunities. I am always looking for fresh challenges. Next, I want to direct a feature,' says Nupur. Though Priyanka too harbours the ambition to direct a feature soon, she is yet to come across a suitable story. 'I have a knack for mainstream commercials. I am keen to choose stories that give me a chance to explore action thrillers, horror or rom-com,' she says, currently working on another web-series. For Priyanka, what's heartening is that women directors, technicians and other members of a crew are today taken seriously. 'When I started working in Mumbai nearly two decades ago, barely five women used to be on the sets. Today, half of my crew are women. They are getting their due. Still, it's not all hunky-dory. We still have to prove ourselves every time. That's unfair. However, it is good to be part of this world,' she says.

Nupur Azadi's thought-provoking tale of identity
Earlier this year, theatrical poet Nupur Azadi sparked conversation online with a bold statement: 'The #1 source of bad posture in women is the male gaze.' Inspired by this idea, she went on to craft a new stand-up spoken word special titled Bad Posture — which had its first full-fledged showing at The Moonshine Project EXT in Jubilee Hills. 'I think it's really special for me to be starting this show in Hyderabad because it's a part of my origin story,' she revealed, recounting a memory from 2017 — being denied entry into a hotel as a solo woman traveller. Back then, all she could muster was a teary 'Why me?!' But that experience taught her something pivotal — change is possible, especially if you're willing to throw a tantrum big enough for it. Prefacing her set with the disclaimer, 'It is not my job to make you laugh,' Azadi led the audience through raw, reflective anecdotes from a woman's life. Her delivery — an emotive blend of sharp quips and dramatic flourishes — made each moment land with impact. She underscored the adage 'happy wife, happy life', drawing loud howls of laughter as she listed socially 'acceptable' reasons to get married — with love conspicuously at the bottom of the list. 'A happy wife is a complaint-free one,' she declared, before unpacking what it really means to 'complain' in a world that asks women to stay quiet. The tone shifted as she read quotes from various writers, pausing the chuckles and prompting quiet reflection. 'Anger,' she noted, adding, 'evokes the possibility of change — and in turn, hope.' Azadi also waded into the murky waters of modern romance, poking fun at dating jargon and offering tongue-in-cheek advice to the women in the crowd. 'I don't want to share crying with men,' she joked, drawing belly laughs at every faux-sob. The night ended with her powerful, tear-inducing poem Woman, Eat — but not before she asked the audience, in a final cheeky flourish, to contact her if offended by the set… not the police. 'The show really makes you think,' said Apoorva, an attendee, sharing, 'We all feel these things but a lot of us are conditioned to not agree.' Another attendee, Sana, echoed the sentiment, saying, 'Nupur talks about women's experiences in a way even we women don't always think about.' Speaking to CE after the performance, Nupur shared, 'This is a new format I'm experimenting with. Instead of presenting it like a show, it's more like a gossip session. It leaves you feeling relieved, like you're not alone in your experiences. Even though the venue had to close early and the set was cut short, I had absolute fun doing this.' On the deeper intent behind Bad Posture, she explained, 'I want to connect with people without changing my lived experiences. I'm not trying to be relatable — but I hope what I share finds relatability.'
