Archana Puran Singh warns son Aaryaman to ‘watch it' as his girlfriend Yogita says she's critical, he replies he's still '10/10 for her'
Archana Puran Singh is back with another vlog with AAAP Ka Parivaar on YouTube, and this time there is a new addition to the family. The actor's son Aaryamann Sethi's girlfriend, actor Yogita Bihani, also joined them on the biryani hunt in Mumbai. In their latest vlog, the family teased him for his 'true love'. While visiting different biryani restaurants, they also explored Salman Khan's family's favourite biryani outlet and choices. During the beginning of the video, Aaryamann specifically introduced his girlfriend Yogita Bihani as 'our very own Madhubala'. Ayushmaan said, 'You are mentioning her separately as if they have not seen her. True love, true love.' 'Aaj hum Biryani challenge karahe hain with Yogita Bihani. Biryani with Bihani!' Archana added. After trying the biryani at the first restaurant Persian Darbaar, Yogita gave an average rating to the food, stating that she is a bit critical, while the other family members give it a solid 8 and 9/10. 'Aary, watch it, she is saying herself,' Archana joked. 'I am still 10/10 for her,' he said, as his mother replied, 'Aaye haaye, naya naya ishq!' They then visited Lucky restaurant, which had an Iranian style of making their biryani. After trying their flavourful food and 'A-class' desserts, they rated it lower than Persian Darbaar. The last one to visit was the famous Jaffer Bhai's Delhi Darbar, which is also a celebrity favourite for Mughlai Biryani. The manager revealed that they deliver biryani to Salman Khan's mother Helen. 'Vo zyadatar pasand karte hain white biryani aur khichda. Whenever it's Arpita (Salman's sister Arpita Khan Sharma) madam's birthday or any other occasion, our food is delivered at their parties. Yusuf Khan sahab, Dilip Kumar sahab, aap log gaye honge, jitna bhi khaana hota hai, mera hi hota hai (We deliver food at their parties),' he shared. White Biryani is their speciality, which is prepared purely using desi ghee and has a strong aroma with flavours. Towards the end of the vlog, all of them chose Persian Darbaar as the best one, mentioning that each one had its own flavour profile.

Kathir Interview: I don't want audience to be prejudiced against my films
They say you can only do a thing for the first time once, and Kathir had his acting debut with Madha Yaanai Koottam in 2013. 12 years later, he is back to doing the same thing for the first time, again. Meesha, his maiden Malayalam film, hit screens on August 1, and the actor is a bundle of nerves. This might sound strange as we are talking about someone who has proved his acting credentials, courtesy of his performances in Pariyerum Perumal, Vikram Vedha, and Suzhal. Still, Kathir believes every film is a new chapter and every role a new opportunity to redefine himself. Excited and nervous about his Malayalam entry, Kathir calls it a chance to reinvent and experience the magic of a 'first time' all over again. Excerpts:
