They made me realise that I’ve done something fabulous. This was an amazing feeling because it happens very rarely in our industry.

Hina Khan slams Rajan Shahi's claims of her having issues with Shivangi Joshi

In an exclusive conversation with ETimes TV, Srishti Jain opened up about being fat-shamed in her early days, she said, "A lot, initially when I joined the industry I did face issues health wise. But the industry is so much about the package, people don't tend to see the person behind it. Let's face it, I was not in the best shape, I was not according to the standards of what people would want to see. I have been fat-shamed before, I have been called things because of the way my skin looked, the way I looked. Be it people on set, the audience watching me. That has happened and I won't lie. I was very young when I started so initially it did affect me, but with time I have built a thick skin. As far as I am a good performer, nothing beats that."
Pankhuri Awasthy and Gautam Rode open up about parenthood

Emotion wise I would give him a million out of 10 but nappy and other stuff he tries to do his best. Gautam’s biggest problem in life are the onesies. He doesn’t understand how to ****on the onesies. He just can’t dress them up. He tries to but he fails. He keeps trying and maybe one day he will get better."
Dipika Chikhlia reacts to Ranbir Kapoor starrer Ramayan
Dipika Chikhlia recently reacted to Ranbir Kapoor and Sai Pallavi starrer Ramayan, she said, “Honestly, I am quite disillusioned by people who keep making Ramayan because I don't think you should be doing it. People are making a mess of it. I don't think people should be making Ramayan again and again because every time they make it, they want to bring in something new; a new story, a new angle, a new look. Like for Kriti Sanon, they gave her a pink coloured satin (saree in Adipurush). They gave Saif (Saif Ali Khan who played Ravana in Om Raut's film) a different look because they wanted to do something different, creatively. But then what you are doing is you're spoiling that whole impact of what Ramayan is all about.”

Meera Deosthale exclusively spoke to Bombay Times about not receiving the payment for her previous show Vidya, she said, “The show ended in March 2020, and I am still waiting for my pending dues.

I had also filed a complaint at Bangur Nagar Police Station in May 2023, but nothing happened. Producer Mahesh Pandey has now stopped responding to my messages and calls.
