Son of Sardaar 2's Roshni Walia Reveals Why Her Mother Was Often ‘Cursed' By Relatives

Last Updated: Roshni Walia revealed about her parents' divorce and that she doesn't have any true relatives. Television sensation Roshni Walia rose to fame with her role as Ajabde Punwar in Bharat Ka Veer Putra – Maharana Pratap. Having started her acting journey at a young age, Roshni has been a familiar face on Indian television for years. Now after years of hard work, she is all set to make her big screen debut with Son of Sardaar 2. Directed by Vijay Kumar Arora, the upcoming Bollywood film features Roshni alongside industry heavyweights Ajay Devgn and Mrunal Thakur. Ahead of her film's release on silver screens, the actress sat for a conversation with a media portal, where she opened up about her personal life like never before. During the chat, she revealed her parents' separation and that she doesn't have any relatives. While speaking to Hauterrfly, Roshni Walia was asked about her father. She disclosed, 'My parents are divorced. They don't live together. They are not into each other's lives. Unki apni family hai (He has his own family). I am very happy and respectful. They enjoy." Showering praise at her mother, Roshni went on to say that her mother has been there for her through tough times, and she is her only family. 'Mera toh yahi kehna hai ki mere bure waqt mai sabse zyada meri maa ne sath diya hai aur unka sath humne diya hai. Yahi humari family hai. (I want to just say that during my tough days my mother supported me the most, and we stood by her. This is my family," she said. Roshni Walia On Her Relatives Revealing how her mother's friends and her friends are like family to her, the Maharana Pratap actress added, 'I feel kabhi kabhi it's not the blood relation that matters. Kabhi kabhi aapke rishte organically bhi ban sakte hai. Aur voh bohot ache rishte ho sakte hai. Zaruri nahi hai voh aapke khoon ka hi koi ho. Sometimes people just come like angels, and then they are in your life (I feel sometimes it's not the blood relations that matter. Sometimes your relationships grow organically, and those can be good relationships. It is not important that it should be a blood relationship)." 'We don't have any relatives. Humara ek bhi relative hamara sagga nahi raha hai (None of our relatives have been true to us)," Roshni revealed. She went on to say that her relatives 'mocked' her mother for coming to Mumbai and 'cursed' her that they would not be able to thrive there. However, Roshni stated that her mother made that big decision, and they are the happiest now. Roshni Walia's Upcoming Movie The television star will star in Vijay Kumar Arora's directorial Son of Sardaar 2. The film is a spiritual sequel to Ajay Devgn's 2012 hit film of the same name. In the comedy franchise, the actor will be seen reprising his role as Jaswinder 'Jassi" Singh Randhawa. Alongside Ajay, the film also brings together Mrunal Thakur, Sanjay Mishra, Ravi Kishan and debutant Roshni Walia in other important roles. Buckle up, as the film is all set to tickle the funny bones on July 25. First Published: July 26, 2025, 11:13 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.

Coldplay star's ex Gwyneth Paltrow becomes Astronomer's "spokesperson": Social media explodes

Astronomer, the AI/data ops startup that went viral for all the wrong reasons, has just dropped a bold PR move: Gwyneth Paltrow , ex-wife of Coldplay frontman Chris Martin , is playing the role of their temporary spokesperson. It's thought‑provoking, cheeky—and yes, it's totally capitalizing on the buzz. What happened (in case you missed it) It all started at a Coldplay concert on July 15. A Kiss Cam captured Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and HR head Kristin Cabot in a cozy moment. They quickly shied away, looking mortified. Chris Martin quipped on stage, 'Either they're having an affair or just really shy.' The internet explosion that followed led to resignations—and a full-on PR crisis. About a week later, Astronomer posted a video featuring Gwyneth Paltrow. She introduces herself calmly, saying: 'I've been hired on a very temporary basis to speak on behalf of the 300-plus employees at Astronomer.' She deadpans, 'Yes... Astronomer is the best place to run Apache Airflow,' turning the viral moment into a data‑tech pitch. It's like watching the calmest damage control ever. Netizens are calling it a PR masterstroke—'marketing jiu‑jitsu' that turned a viral scandal into brand awareness. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Up to 70% off | Libas Purple Days Sale Libas Undo One user said this was '10/10 PR recovery.' Social media lit up Social media lit up after news broke that Gwyneth Paltrow—yes, Chris Martin's ex—was hired as a temporary spokesperson by Astronomer, the data platform making headlines for all the wrong reasons. 'Astronomer picking Chris Martin's ex-wife as their spokesperson is diabolical marketing and a pretty entertaining crisis recovery move,' tweeted @mickeynegus, summing up the internet's collective jaw-drop. Meanwhile, @LloydMathias chimed in with a perfectly Goop-flavored take: 'Brilliant come back from @astronomerio using Gwyneth Paltrow as temp spokie. She cleverly cuts off Q&As: 'OMG what the actual f—' & 'How is your social media team holding—" to expertly shift focus back to brand. Masterful crisis recovery! Well played.' Who is Astronomer's CEO now? Astronomer's interim CEO, Pete DeJoy, has stepped in after Byron's resignation. He described the media attention as 'unusual and surreal,' adding that the scandal unexpectedly made Astronomer a household name in data automation. Paltrow's casting is ironic gold: she was married to Coldplay's Chris Martin. Now she's tongue-in-cheek fronting the company that got dragged into the drama. It's absurd—and hilarious. Astronomer turned a cringe kiss cam moment into a viral comeback—by starring Gwyneth Paltrow in the kind of eyebrow‑raising cameo we'd never see in traditional crisis PR.

It is being said that the BJJ fighter even got into an argument with fellow passengers and threatened to beat them up.
