Shabir Ahluwalia: I feel we give love too much importance, like it is the centre of our lives
Shabir Ahluwalia, currently seen in Ufff...Yeh Love Hai Mushkil, is playing a character who's navigating love through chaos and comedy. But when it comes to his personal views on love in today's fast-paced, dating-app-driven world, the actor has a refreshingly grounded take.
On love in today's times, he says, 'I just feel we give love too much importance, like it is the centre of our lives when it's not. For Yug, love is chaos and sorrow. For me, love happens organically. If you like someone, whether it's your friend, family, kids or partner, that's love. It isn't about duties or sacrifices. You don't need to show it; those are things you naturally do for the people you love. So, it comes very organically.
'
Defining love in his own words, he adds, '
Jiske saath rehne mein maza aata hai na, usko
love
kehte hain. Jiske saath kuch bhi na karo aur din guzar jaaye, usko
love
kehte hain
. I think love is not something to be taken too seriously. It's organic.'

This is something that's rare in an era of instant connections and swipe-culture relationships.
Asked about navigating attraction and temptation in the entertainment industry, he says, 'For me, it's always about going back home to be with my wife and kids after work. I am no one to judge when someone feels attracted to another person. To each their own. But for me, being on set is about working, having fun as colleagues, and that's about it.'

‘Criminal Justice' season 4: Anju, Raj, or Ira, who killed Roshni? Fans share speculations online
Fans of the popular OTT show ' Criminal Justice : A Family Matter' cannot get enough of the new season. With the finale set to drop on July 3, fans have been sharing speculations about the show and how it will end after the events of the last episode. The plot of the web series follows the main character, lawyer Madhav Mishra , as he defends the suspect Raj Nagpal , who has been accused of murder after he was found holding the body of the late nurse Roshni Saluja . Ever since the release of the first episode, fans have been in anticipation of the killer's identity. There have been major pieces of evidence that have been revealed throughout the show. Things like missing CCTV footage, a lactose-free milk bottle, and now, in the latest turn of events, a mysterious and still unexplained medicine bottle. Ever since the 7th episode of the season was released online, fans have been buzzing with theories and speculations, with many turning into detectives to solve the crime before Mishra. Fans of the show took to social media platforms and discussion forums to share their thoughts on the matter. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like They Were So Beautiful Before; Now Look At Them; Number 10 Will Shock You Reportingly Undo The most popular theory behind the murder Many fans of the show have been pointing out that the answer could be someone extremely obvious that most would brush aside as being a simple side character. One of the most popular theories suggested by fans is that it wasn't Raj, butt a fellow physician who was not involved in the murder. Some even suspected that Roshni could have been involved in poisoning Nagpal's daughter, Ira, and to protect his family, this physician decided to end the nurse's life. More theories about less obvious characters: Is the killer a woman? After a scalpel was found as one of the major pieces of evidence in the murder case, fans did a roundabout, and theories about how the killer might be a female came to light. Many fans of the show started sharing clips of the season 4 trailer that showed a slitting scene with a woman's hand involved in it. Using the clip to support their argument, fans of the show claim that one of the characters named Kamala might be behind the murder rather than Raj. Gripping finale Fans of the show have shared divided reactions. While some have labelled the show's one episode per week format as lazy and slow, many others have shared that it adds a level of suspense to the drama. Other than that, some fans also pointed out that Roshni's ex-boyfriend could be the answer, no matter how obvious it seems. As the final episode of the show is set to be released tomorrow, all that is left for the fans to do is wait and watch and put their theory to the test.
