Smriti Irani reacts to pay parity; says 'I wasn't paid more than the male lead when I joined Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi... I created that space...'
One of Indian television's most iconic shows, Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, is making a grand return with a brand-new season, and the excitement among fans is already sky-high. The revival will mark Smriti Irani 's much-awaited comeback to acting and will reunite the beloved on-screen duo of Smriti and Amar Upadhyay , bringing back the unforgettable Tulsi-Mihir pairing. The actress-turned-politician recently joined Karan Johar for We The Women and opened up about pay parity in the TV industry. Speaking about the change she and producer Ekta Kapoor had on the television industry, Smriti Irani recalled how she once unabashedly shared that she was paid more than the male lead of the show, Smriti said, "Today, in the so-called woke generation that you speak of, there is a huge conversation around pay parity. That is the time we broke the so-called glass ceiling where the female protagonist unabashedly said that I'm paid more than the male actor. We set that template even in terms of parity. If presumably this is to happen again (Kyunki's return), I'm sure given Ekta's inclination of pushing the envelope she will do that again." Smriti further shared that she wasn't paid more than her male co-star when she first joined the show. In fact, she emphasized that it was a space she created over time, with the support of producer Ekta Kapoor, she said, "I was not paid more than the male protagonist when I had signed the contract. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Memperdagangkan CFD Emas dengan salah satu spread terendah?

I remember when we did that particular engagement contract; Ekta Kapoor was very focused on the history we were about to create. Everybody else was bothered about the pay cheque. She has always been focused on what the threshold is that she can cross or what new standard she can set." Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi which is returning with a season 2, has been delayed due to Vastu concerns but now the show will go on floors from July 3.

The silent siege: 7 psychological impacts of mobile gaming on young minds
In a world where mobile phones have become the third hand of every human being, a silent revolution is taking place in the minds of the younger generation — and not all of it is for the better. Mobile gaming, once a form of casual entertainment, has rapidly evolved into a psychological ecosystem with deep-rooted implications. As an author and observer of behavioral patterns in youth, I felt compelled to explore this world deeper in my latest book, "The Game of Death" — a psychological thriller that reflects today's digital reality with a chilling, fictional twist. This article isn't a blanket condemnation of mobile gaming. Games can be creative, educational, and even therapeutic. But when their design begins to manipulate brain chemistry, behavior, and identity, we must pause and ask — what is really at stake? Let me take you through seven psychological impacts of mobile gaming on young minds — effects that I have witnessed, researched, and woven intricately into the storyline of "The Game of Death." The addiction loop: Dopamine as a weapon At the core of most mobile games lies a reward loop — a system of rewards, upgrades, and achievements that releases dopamine, the brain's pleasure chemical. The issue is, the brain begins to associate achievement with in-game progress rather than real-life effort. Young minds, still developing their impulse control, become especially vulnerable to this manipulation. In "The Game of Death," the protagonist is trapped in a game that doesn't end — and neither does the satisfaction of winning. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Perdagangkan CFD Emas dengan Broker Tepercaya IC Markets Mendaftar Undo This mirror of reality reflects how game developers use psychological triggers to keep players hooked. Erosion of attention span One of the most under-discussed casualties of mobile gaming is attention span. Fast-paced games, designed to offer stimulation every second, rewire the brain to expect constant engagement. When young users return to classrooms or books, reality feels "slow" or "boring." Research from Harvard and MIT has shown a clear link between excessive mobile gaming and difficulty sustaining attention on academic tasks. We're breeding a generation addicted to speed — and allergic to patience. Emotional desensitization Games are no longer about coloured candies or flapping birds. Many now feature violence, moral ambiguity, and simulated conflict. Over time, players become emotionally desensitized to aggression and risk, affecting empathy levels and emotional intelligence. In my book, The Game of Death, I talked about the factors impacting the young mind, by creating a thrilling story, as I understand the message need to be delivered but in the way young mind understand it. Distorted sense of achievement A virtual "Victory Royale" may feel like winning an Olympic medal to a young player. And therein lies the danger — the illusion of achievement. When real-life effort doesn't reward with the same instant gratification, children lose motivation for academic, social, or athletic pursuits. The main character in "The Game of Death" begins as a top student but descends into academic apathy as the game becomes his source of validation. This is not far from the stories I've heard while interacting with students and parents across India. We need to understand that the upcoming generation is in danger and more dangerous for the humanity. While scrolling reel we do not understand that we are loosing our concentration power. Social withdrawal and identity crisis Online games offer not just entertainment, but alternate identities. A shy teenager can become a fearless warrior, a social outcast can lead a virtual army. While this sounds empowering, it often leads to social withdrawal, where real-world relationships feel less meaningful than virtual ones. In the novel, my characters deal with the identity blur between their true identity. This psychological confusion is increasingly becoming common, especially during the teenage years when identity is still being formed. Increased anxiety and sleep disorders What most parents and educators don't realize is how mobile gaming affects the sleep cycle and mental rest. Blue light exposure, late-night gaming marathons, and subconscious replaying of game content lead to poor sleep hygiene. This contributes to anxiety, mood swings, and even early symptoms of depression. These issues are no longer urban myths — paediatricians across the world are now treating what they call 'digital anxiety syndrome.' In "The Game of Death," the protagonist begins experiencing vivid nightmares and insomnia as the game takes over his subconscious. This part of the story was inspired by real accounts shared by mental health experts. Peer pressure and microtransaction guilt Many games push players to purchase in-game content to progress faster or appear cooler. This creates a hierarchy of virtual status, especially among school-going children. Those who don't buy, feel inferior. Those who do, often suffer guilt or hide their spending habits from parents. This economy of comparison is deeply toxic. It fosters insecurity, compulsive spending, and in some cases — lying and stealing. It's no longer "just a game." It's digital peer pressure with real-life emotional consequences. Why I wrote "The Game of Death" After years of listening to teenagers, parents, counselors, and teachers, I realized that what we needed wasn't just another self-help book or a technical study. We needed a story — one that pulls readers into a world that looks just like ours, only slightly darker. 'The Game of Death' is that story. It's a fast-paced psychological thriller that follows a young boy who kidnaps himself — only to find that it starts manipulating his choices, his relationships, and ultimately, his sense of self. He distributes seven letters based on seven psychological impacts of mobile gaming, but how those letters changes the life of everyone around is an eyeopener. While fictional, it is rooted in factual patterns and real-world behaviors I've studied extensively. The book is not just meant to entertain, but to spark a much-needed conversation. Every year because of drugs fifty to sixty thousand lives are lost, but we do not talk about six to seven lakh people who die because of anxiety, depression caused due to mobile gaming and social media. A wake-up call in disguise My purpose as a writer is not to scare, but to awaken. Mobile gaming is not evil. But when unchecked, unmonitored, and unguided — it can slowly dismantle a young person's ability to live fully in the real world. We need to talk about this — not just in schools, but in living rooms, at dinner tables, and within ourselves. 'The Game of Death' is available across all major bookstores and platforms. Read it, reflect on it, and perhaps, share it with a young gamer in your life. Because sometimes, the deadliest games aren't the ones we lose — but the ones we never stop playing. Himanshu Rai, Author of "The Game of Death"

There's something timeless about standing on those ancient stones with the ocean stretching endlessly behind you. The energy of the place is grounding. It's strong, silent, and full of stories.
