Exclusive - Dipali Sharma on working opposite Avinash Mishra in Pyaar Se Bandhe Rishte; says 'He's not just respectful and well-mannered, but also contributes thoughtful ideas on set'
Dipali Sharma , who is stepping into the spotlight as the lead in Ektaa Kapoor's Pyaar Se Bandhe Rishte, is overjoyed about this new chapter. Paired opposite Bigg Boss 18 fame Avinash Mishra , Dipali shared her excitement in an exclusive chat with Times of India TV. She spoke candidly about her path in the entertainment industry, landing the lead role in Ektaa Kapoor's show, and her experience working alongside Avinash Mishra. Tell us a little about your journey? I began my career as an engineer, but deep down, I was always passionate about storytelling and performing. Trusting my instincts, I made a bold decision to leave my job and step into the world of acting. I started out with television shows, which helped me build a strong foundation in the craft. In 2021, I made my debut in a Telugu film. Since then, I've been thankful for each opportunity and remain excited about taking on roles that challenge and inspire me as an artist. How does it feel to be a lead in Ekta Kapoor's next? Of course, it feels incredible. I've previously worked with Balaji on Barsatein and Yeh Hai Chahatein, but this project holds a special place in my heart because I'm playing the lead this time. What makes it even more exciting is that it's Balaji's first finite series on YouTube. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Candi: New Container Houses – Take A Look At The Prices! Container homes | Search ads Learn More Undo I'm definitely looking forward to hearing from Ekta Kapoor about it. Does having a godfather in the industry make it easier to sustain a long-term career? I believe in destiny. Having a godfather can be an advantage, but not having one doesn't mean you're at a disadvantage. If something is truly meant for you, you'll find your way—sooner or later. Some people are shown the way, while others create their own. Both paths are meaningful, but building your journey from scratch is what defines a true legacy. How is it working with Avinash Mishra for this one? Working with Avinash has been a truly pleasant experience. He's not just respectful and well-mannered, but also someone who contributes thoughtful ideas on set. His creative suggestions really enhance the process, and based on my experience, he's an excellent co-actor to work with.

A Quiet Place Part III Gets 2027 Release Date, John Krasinski To Direct Once Again
Last Updated: John Krasinski returns as director for A Quiet Place Part III, set to release on July 9, 2027. Plot and cast details remain under wraps. The much-anticipated A Quiet Place Part III is officially happening, and John Krasinski is back at the helm. As per Variety, Krasinski will serve as the director, writer, and producer for the third main installment in Paramount's hit horror-thriller franchise. He confirmed the news on August 1 via Instagram, along with updates on the Michael Sarnoski-directed spinoff, A Quiet Place: Day One. The next chapter in the Quiet Place saga is slated to hit theatres on July 9, 2027. However, plot details are tightly under wraps, and it remains unknown whether franchise regulars Emily Blunt, Noah Jupe, and Millicent Simmonds will reprise their roles. The new installment will once again revolve around the terrifying alien creatures with hypersensitive hearing that have decimated human populations. According to Variety, the film is expected to continue exploring the idea of humans using whispers and silence to survive in a hostile, post-apocalyptic world. The film will be produced under Krasinski's banner Sunday Night Productions, along with Allyson Seeger and Platinum Dunes. Notably, Seeger's company has a first-look deal with Paramount, solidifying their creative stake in the franchise's future. The A Quiet Place franchise has been a commercial powerhouse, grossing over $900 million worldwide across three films. The original, released in 2018, was a critical and box-office success, raking in $50.2 million on its opening weekend and going on to earn $341 million globally. Its sequel, A Quiet Place Part II, faced delays due to the pandemic but still managed to pull in $297.3 million worldwide. The 2024 spinoff A Quiet Place: Day One, directed by Michael Sarnoski and starring Lupita Nyong'o, Joseph Quinn, and Djimon Hounsou, was also a hit, collecting $262 million globally. Set in a crumbling New York City ravaged by the alien invasion, the spinoff expanded the franchise's universe and mythology. With Part III now officially dated and John Krasinski once again leading the charge, fans of the suspense-filled series can begin the countdown to what promises to be another edge-of-the-seat thriller.

Danica Patrick fuels controversy by backing Sydney Sweeney amid outrage over American Eagle's anti-woke ad
Danica Patrick fuels controversy by backing Sydney Sweeney amid outrage over American Eagle's anti-woke ad (Image via Getty) Danica Patrick is speaking up after Sydney Sweeney 's new American Eagle ad caused a storm online. On Sunday, July 28, 2025, Patrick posted on Instagram, asking why people were so upset with the campaign. The ad, featuring Sydney Sweeney modeling jeans with the tagline 'Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans', was released last week and has sparked anger on social media. While many are calling it a hidden message promoting 'white beauty,' Patrick doesn't see the problem and she's not the only one backing Sweeney. Danica Patrick reacts to Sydney Sweeney's American Eagle ad The backlash began after American Eagle launched its fall 2025 campaign on Friday, July 26, starring 27-year-old actress Sydney Sweeney. Smiling and posing in several outfits, she was shown in the ad under the heading "Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans". Although many internet users considered the line to be a covert call advocating white beauty norms especially given Sweeney's blond hair and blue eyes, it was obviously a word play. Danica Patrick, a former NASCAR star who recently backed Donald Trump's 2024 campaign, aired her opinions on Instagram Stories. 'Can anyone tell me what's wrong with the new AE ads?! Very confused,' she wrote on July 28. WWE legend Sgt. Slaughter, whose real name is Robert Remus, also showed his support. On July 29, he posted on X (formerly Twitter), 'Attention @sydney_sweeney, YOU GO GIRL & That's An Order!!' Slaughter is a former WWF Heavyweight Champion and appeared on WWE SmackDown just last week during a tribute to Hulk Hogan, who passed away on July 26. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like How to Trade ETH/USD Without Holding Ether IC Markets Learn More Undo ESPN's David Dennis Jr and others criticize the ad's hidden message While some celebrities are defending Sydney Sweeney, others are calling out the ad. On July 30, ESPN analyst David Dennis Jr posted online, saying he didn't notice the problem at first until 'experts on eugenics and fascism' explained the deeper meaning. He later added sarcastically, 'I'm just happy these AE ads are making it safe for conventionally attractive blue-eyed blonde women to be accepted again.' Also Read: 'I Have A Husband': Veronika Kudermetova's Bold Reply To Holger Rune's Private Message Fuels Gossip Across Tennis World Salon magazine also criticized the ad, saying the phrase 'great genes' has been historically used to praise whiteness and thinness. Publicist Alexandria Hurley told that she doesn't believe this was a mistake. 'It's a strategy,' she said. 'Sydney has leaned into controversy before this is not an accident.' The ad is still up on billboards and stores across the U.S., keeping the debate very much alive.
