Meet Amitabh Bachchan's heroine, who used to do her own makeup, was once a star, quit acting due to...., she is now.... In the glitzy and glamorous world of Bollywood, fame is always fleeting. Many actors come into the industry in the hope of making it big on the screen, but the success story of an actor changes every week. While on one Friday, they would be winning hearts and getting a lot of praise for their impeccable performance, the next Friday, they might get totally vanish into thin air like they never existed. But in this industry where several actors come, entertain us and then leave, there are rarely few who remain etched in the memory, and when they come around with a comeback, it feels personal. They come back as if they never left. One such tale belongs to an artist who was once a co-star of Bollywood's Shahenshah, Amitabh Bachchan. The person we are talking about is none other than Rakhi Gulzar, the legendary actress of Hindi Cinema. Rakhi, whose unforgettable performance remains to live rent-free in our head even today, once gave blockbuster hits like 'Kabhi Kabhie', 'Karan-Arjun', 'Tapasya', 'Sharmili', 'Aanchal'. This year, Rakhi has made her prodigal comeback with a Bengali film, Amar Boss. Returning to the industry after 22 years, this film is directed by Filmmakers Shibhoprasad Mukherjee and Nandita Roy. The film revolves around the storyline of an older woman whose family is unable to take care of her, It also addresses societal issues and more. The veteran actress's comeback is grabbing a lot of eyeballs, and she is getting her due appreciation. The audience is happy to see the veteran actress come back after a long time. While talking about working with Rakhi Gulzar in the film Amar Boss, director Shibhoprasad Mukherjee and Nandita Roy laid emphasis on Rakhi's simple nature and humility. The director shared that Rakhi is a very simple girl who doesn't believe in making things complicated. They revealed that on sets she used to do her makeup and even styled herself. She wore her own sarees and told the makers not to worry about her clothes. Rakhi, being one of the most celebrated actresses in 70's and 80's, delivered some immoral films, but besides her professional success, her personal life was facing some turbulence. While she was at the peak of her career, she married writer and poet Gulzar. But before marriage, Gulzar laid a condition that she would not act in films after marriage. Despite her love for the art, she decided to compromise for her love. But later, she faced repercussions of this bet. Whenever she would get an offer, fights started picking up between the duo, so much so that it even led to physical fights and abuse. A year later, the couple called it quits and parted their ways. Now at 77, Rakhi is back with a bang, and her comeback is proof that while she was away from the limelight, she was never away from the hearts of her fans. And, if an artist is truly passionate about their art, their comeback, no matter when they happen, will speak volumes.

Trash rack to be installed at Ghaggar river to curb waste flow

1 2 Panchkula: A trash rack will be installed inside Ghaggar river near Majri Chowk bridge to intercept and contain solid waste flowing through the river. For this, the Haryana State Pollution Control Board (HSPCB) has released an environmental compensation fund of Rs 52.27 lakh to the state irrigation and water resources department. The department will now float a tender for this. If this project proves successful, similar trash racks will be set up at other vulnerable locations in the river. This initiative is part of a broader effort to clean local water bodies and improve waste management infrastructure. The project aims to tackle the persistent issue of waste flowing through the river. "The trash that gets collected at the barrier will be lifted and properly disposed of," a department official said. The move is expected to reduce pollution levels in the river, which has been a longstanding environmental concern. A trash rack is a fixed metal bar screen installed perpendicular to the direction of water flow, typically at the entrance of a water intake, to filter out large debris like plastic, seaweed, tree branches, and other waste items. Trash racks require regular maintenance to ensure they are effectively filtering debris and preventing blockages. There is serious pollution issue here as people throw waste, even plastic items, into the river. Previously, on the directions of the National Green Tribunal (NGT), meshes were installed on the bridge so people are not able to throw waste from the road. It proved to be less effective. Residents here and environmental activists have welcomed the decision, calling it a much-needed step towards protecting the river ecosystem. "The new trash rack is expected to be a more robust and sustainable solution. Unlike temporary measures, this installation is designed for long-term impact and easier maintenance. The department concerned should speed up the work," said Tapasya, co-founder of the Save Ghaggar forum.
