Hrithik and Mrunal have completed a schedule in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, and are currently shooting in Sambhar, Rajasthan.

Drawing a deep breath, Mrunal added, “Hrithik is such an inspiration. Just observing him on the set has taught me so much. The way he works is not just for himself, he is a team player and is so giving. I am absolutely loving each day of the shoot. I am so comfortable shooting with Hrithik. He is humble and dedicated, and that makes me want to give my 200 percent.”

Super 30 will showcase Hrithik in a never seen before avatar, playing a Bihari for the first time in his career.

The actor wrapped shooting for the first schedule of the film in Banaras and recently shot for a part of the film in Sambhar, Rajasthan.

Actress Palak Jain, who essays the role of Anushka Reddy in Yeh Pyaar Nahi Toh Kya Hai, says the show gave her an opportunity to take Bharatnatyam lessons. Belonging to a rich family, Anushka has an ideology of simple living and high thinking. She also has a flair for art and culture and is inclined towards learning a dance form.

“I always wanted to learn Bharatnatyam but due to studies and other assignments, I couldn’t find the time to do it. Thanks to ‘Yeh Pyaar Nahi Toh Kya Hai’, my character is a dance enthusiast. Hence, I had to learn a few steps of the dance form from a professional tutor,” Palak said in a statement.

“It was a liberating feeling, a long-cherished dream that has finally come true. I am hopeful of learning Bharatnatyam professionally too,” she added.

Yeh Pyaar Nahi Toh Kya Hai is aired on Sony Entertainment Television.

Megastar Amitabh Bachchan is the biggest name in Bollywood today, and the iconic actor even commands respect in the West as well. From his acting, fashion sense to his sharp wit, he literally rules the tinsel town and millions of hearts.

At present, the veteran actor is busy shooting for ‘Thugs of Hindostan’ in Jodhpur. The movie also features stellar performers like Aamir Khan, Katrina Kaif and Fatima Sana Shaikh. The film is already the talk of the town and here’s the latest picture from the sets.

Big B often posts interesting content on his social media that goes viral within no time and his latest post was no exception. Taking to his Instagram, he shared a vintage picture of himself from 1968. Talking about it, he revealed that it is the same picture that was on his job application for a movie when he was rejected.

Well, we did tell you he has a great sense of humor!

My application picture for a job in movies .. 1968.. no wonder I was rejected !!

A post shared by Amitabh Bachchan (@amitabhbachchan) on Mar 20, 2018 at 3:24am PDT

This reminds us of the time when he penned down a few lines applying for a job to work with tall actresses like Deepika Padukone and Katrina Kaif.

Job Application : Amitabh Bachchan DOB 11.10.1942 .. age 76 .. 49 yrs experience in films .. approx 200 films acted .. speaks Hindi .. HEIGHT 6’2” .. available .. You shall never have height problem !!

A post shared by Amitabh Bachchan (@amitabhbachchan) on Feb 17, 2018 at 8:07am PST

Not many know that the legendary actor had faced a lot of rejection before he made it big in the industry. Back in the day, when Ameen Sayani was a well-known presenter on Air India Radio, Amitabh Bachchan wanted to be one as well before he tried his luck in Bollywood.

AB visited the studio multiple times but couldn’t make it to the list, as Sayani never cleared him. Unimaginable right?

Well, we guess little did anyone know that he would become a success story one day and sit on Bollywood’s throne.

We all cry a bucket or two when life hits us hard. But, nothing can be more painful than a friend hitting you hard at a time when you least expect it (quite literally). And TV’s popular actress Shraddha Arya learned this lesson in the most brutal way possible. Not that I am trying to sound like a sadist, but I laughed hard and enjoyed seeing her get hurt, because that’s basically most of us while doing a group project.  

I am sure I am not the only one who hated the concept of group projects in college. No matter, how hard you worked, there was always someone who came around and f**ked things up for everyone. This video is a graphic representation of the same.

Check Out TV Actress Shraddha Arya's Towel Dance Video© instagram

Shraddha Arya, who currently appears on Zee TV popular daily soap, ‘Kundali Bhagya’, recently shared a throwback video of her doing a ‘towel dance’ with two of her friends. The video started on a high note and we soon started comparing it to Ranbir Kapoor’s iconic towel dance from ‘Saawariya’. But, things soon went downhill and she had to stop it immediately.  

Stop having any weird thoughts guys, it wasn’t a wardrobe malfunction. However, it did get brutal in the end. She was dancing happily before her friend accidently slapped her hard in the face.  

Hahahahah😂 when things don’t go as planned, since we were so messy from the start. (Watch till the end) @meher_gill @bhaveshweta #bloopers #whatrubbish 😂#throwback #wth

A post shared by Shraddha Arya (@sarya12) on Mar 19, 2018 at 10:27pm PDT

It’s okay Shraddha, not everyone can be a pro at towel dance like Ranbir Kapoor. On this note, let’s take a walk down the memory lane and look at Ranbir’s debut days.

Anushka Sharma is currently spending some time off from the madness of the concrete jungle of city life, and is currently in Bhopal shooting for ‘Sui Dhaga’. The movie also stars Varun Dhawan in the lead and will see Anushka sporting a de-glam look.

She is also enjoying some pizza time with a picnic in her pristine surroundings. Because sometimes you just need carbs to remind you of the joys in life. 

Made the most of the few hours before night shoots here in Bhopal . Made friends with horses , walked around , swam , had lunch (pizza!) on the grass ! So all in all a day well spent before night time shooting begins. BUT can we please see how terribly clove is failing at basic things like … eating 🤣ðŸ‘?ðŸ?¼ðŸ’– @cloverwootton

After staking her claim as Bollywood’s queen bee, our very own ‘desi girl’ has managed to wrap Hollywood around her finger as well. And now, she is back in Mumbai and is already working on making her Indian fans very happy.  

It’s been a while since we have seen her in Bollywood movies and we do miss her. And now that she is back, she is already making her move and deciding on which movie she would like to work in. In fact, taking to her Instagram she even shared the story of a table filled with almost 6-7 scripts and wrote, “Which one will it be? Homework.”

Priyanka Chopra To Romance Salman For 'Bharat'

While we are still biting our nails thinking which film will PeeCee pick to entertain us, reports claim that she already has picked a project. And if everything being said is true, then she will soon be seen reuniting with Salman Khan after 14 years.

Yay! We know that’s pretty exciting. According to a report in DNA, she has come on-board for Salman Khan’s ‘Bharat’ which will be helmed by Ali Abbas Zafar. Salman has already worked with Ali in ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’ and a lot is being expected from ‘Bharat’ as well. If the reports are true, then it will be after ‘Good Tusi Great Ho’ that we will get to see them together.

Spilling beans over the development, a source said, “Priyanka has also worked with Ali in ‘Gunday’ (2014) and shares a good rapport with him. This film will see the three of them collaborate for the first time.”

Wondering when all of this actually happened? Ali actually met the actress in New York when she was busy giving an action-packed performance for her series ‘Quantico’.

‘Bharat’ is expected to go on floor by mid-2018 and the team is prepping for the shoots already.

However, nothing has been officially announced but we really want this one to work. If this goes to floors, then it will be a huge film with a stellar cast.

‘The Big Bang Theory’ is one of my favourite shows, simply because it has some of the best characters and, of course, the one and only Sheldon Cooper. But just like any other sitcom out there, this one too has some rotten apples and there is one character in particular who makes me want to kill myself.

via GIPHY

I really did not have a problem with Penny in the beginning of the show. I mean she was the cute girl-next-door with a big heart, and seemed to be perfect for the shy and adorable Leonard Hofstadter.

via GIPHY

Then suddenly I got the feeling that Penny was getting too much power. Sure, when you are a hot chick surrounded by four nerds who clearly adore you, it must be a good feeling. But then the way she began to lord herself over the guys and constantly kept picking on them, their hobbies and interests, it did not sit well with me.

via GIPHY

Sure, it was fun watching Leonard woo Penny and try to get into a relationship with her, and I was even happy when they got together. But, oh God, what followed next was nothing short of painful and cringey. Watching Penny toss poor Leonard around her tune was just sad. I couldn’t see the ‘cuteness’ anymore, and Kaley Cuoco’s character started to piss me off like anything.

via GIPHY

Needless to say, watching Leonard lose himself and his self-respect was not an easy sight. Somehow, Penny made it look like a hot woman could get away with anything, and that was just wrong. Instead of being supportive, she made it look like she was doing Leonard a huge favour by being his girlfriend.

via GIPHY

So I have compiled 10 reasons why I feel that Penny is literally the worst girlfriend I have ever seen among sitcoms:

1. She Treated Leonard Like A Downright Dispensable Object

via GIPHY

2. She Never Respected Leonard’s Interests & Always Made A Point To Mock Him

via GIPHY

3. Leonard Was Constantly Under The Fear That She Would Break Up With Him

via GIPHY

4. She Continuously Kept Putting Leonard Down

via GIPHY

5. She Never Gave A Damn About Leonard’s Job & Took Him For Granted

via GIPHY

6. She Knew She Could Get Away With Practically Anything When It Came To Leonard

via GIPHY

7. She Always Kept Leonard Hanging Around & Ensured He Was On Her Hook

via GIPHY

8. At One Point She Even Bragged About Making More Money Than Leonard, Completely Forgetting What He Did For Her In The Past

via GIPHY

9. Kept Making Leonard Go Out Of His Comfort Zone, But Had Problems When It Was Vice Versa

via GIPHY

10. Used Her ‘Hotness’ To Get Her Way As If That’s The Only Thing A Woman Has In Her Arsenal 

via GIPHY

Filmmaker Hansal Mehta purchased real-life footage from a number of sources for his film Omerta starring Rajkummar Rao as the lead face

Filmmaker Hansal Mehta says that to make his film “Omerta”, which is based on terrorist Omar Saeed Sheikhs life, as authentic as possible, he purchased real-life footage from a number of sources. Footage of the Kandahar attack, media footage following the 9/11 attack in the US and other clips were acquired from a whole range of sources by the film’s team.

“When it comes to the film, everything has to be credible. To ensure we kept it as real as possible, we purchased the actual footage. The film covers various crucial events from world history. I had to buy these videos from different agencies. They were bought in bits and pieces through the years,” Mehta said in a statement.

“Omerta” was shot in real locations across London and India. It is woven around some of the most bloody terror attacks, including the 9/11 attack and the beheading of journalist Daniel Pearl. Presented by Swiss Entertainment and Karma Media, produced by Nahid Khan and directed by Mehta, “Omerta” stars Rajkummar Rao. It will release on April 20.

Bollywood might be done with giving away awards to our favorite celebrities, but the celebs surely aren’t done with receiving them. Almost every other day, there is some or the other award show to honor the personalities for their contribution. Although there is no dearth of award shows in India, the newest ones only make us look forward to what new categories they have to offer.

And the already huge list of awards recently welcomed a new member on board – Instagram.

Instagram just announced its first-ever awards in India to honor the celebrities, because clearly, their posts are way more entertaining than ours. So what if you struggled for hours to get the perfect lighting for your #FoodPorn post, while they stole the show with literally just one single quote on a grey background.  

Well keeping our jealousy aside, let’s congratulate the winners of the awards show. Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s on-screen Goddess Queen Padmavati, Deepika Padukone and Indian skipper Virat Kohli outclassed everyone else to win the top honours.

adorable(& not so little)on set buddy!���

A post shared by Deepika Padukone (@deepikapadukone) on Feb 10, 2018 at 10:36pm PST

Reportedly, with 22.4 million followers, Deepika has won the award for the ‘Most Followed Account’.

Was so excited to receive this today!This milestone will always be special!Thank you @instagram 🌟

A post shared by Deepika Padukone (@deepikapadukone) on Nov 27, 2017 at 6:32am PST

This picture is from last year, but we are sure her feelings won’t be any different this year too, now that she has defeated the likes of Alia Bhatt and Priyanka Chopra.

Virat Kohli on the other hand won the ‘Most Engaged Account’ award, with 19.8 million followers.

But, we guess the credit for this award goes to someone else. Yes, we’re talking about his leading lady Anushka Sharma.

Right from their wedding announcement on Instagram…

Today we have promised each other to be bound in love for ever. We are truly blessed to share the news with you.This beautiful day will be made more special with the love and support of our family of fans & well wishers. Thank you for being such an important part of our journey.

December 2017 was the time when his Instagram scored more than his bat.

And that time when he made a billion enemies by kissing Anushka for the world to see. 

My one and only! ?�😇?�

A post shared by Virat Kohli (@virat.kohli) on Feb 20, 2018 at 12:14am PST

We guess, just like how Virat dedicated his 150 runs in the South Africa test to Anushka, he should dedicate the Instagram award to her too.

If the first thing you saw in this picture is Anushka Sharma, then you will know by now that we’re right.

But, if the scenery behind them is what you’re still thinking about, take a bow for being a true wanderlust at heart.
