Fatima Sana Shaikh On Women Marrying After 30: "The Taboo Is A Little Less Now"
Fatima Sana Shaikh recently shared her thoughts on the evolving societal landscape surrounding marriage. The actress shared that the perceptions around women and marriage after the age of 30 are shifting. While traditional views are still prevalent, there's a growing acceptance of individual choices. Fatima Sana Shaikh Opens Up About Marriage After 30 In an interview with IANS, Fatima Sana Shaikh claimed that society's expectation of an individual to get married by a certain age is far less now than it used to be. Fatima Sana Shaikh said, "It happens, but it's less, I think. Earlier, it used to be more prominent. Now, relationships have changed, the meanings of relationships have changed. A lot more people are okay to be alone or they are concentrating on different things. So, society is accepting that. I don't know if it's right or wrong, but I think the taboo is a little less." Sharing a sweet memory of her first love, Fatima recalled that her then-partner once decorated the path from the door to the room with flowers on her birthday. "There were flowers everywhere, and around the cake, there were candles lit all over," she recalled. However, the surprise didn't go as planned as most of the candles had melted away by the time she arrived. "We had to clean it all up later," the actress said. Fatima described it as a special kind of love that was "simple and sincere." She added, "I was very young and didn't even have Facebook or Instagram back then." About Fatima Sana Shaikh's Work On the work front, Fatima Sana Shaikh starrer Dino is currently running in theatres. Directed by Anurag Basu, the film also features Aditya Roy Kapur, Sara Ali Khan, Anupam Kher, Neena Gupta, Pankaj Tripathi, Konkona Sen Sharma and Ali Fazal in key roles.

R. Madhavan reflects on the limited opportunities to star in love stories
Picture Credit: X Actor R. Madhavan , who was recently seen in the romantic comedy 'Aap Jaisa Koi,' reflected on how opportunities to star in romantic films have become fewer with time. The actor, who plays a 42-year-old Sanskrit teacher in the Netflix film, shared what intrigued him about "Aap Jaisa Koi." Madhavan stated, "I didn't choose this to go back to romance. I chose it because it was an interesting story, age appropriate, and topical. There are only a few chances left to star in a love story - and fewer that feel this honest." On-screen pairing with Fatima Sana Shaikh Talking about working with Fatima Sana Shaikh in the movie, the 'Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein' actor shared, "She's a dynamic, younger actor - and I had to make sure the pairing looked palatable. But she's also incredibly charming, and I have a lot of affection and respect for her. It was honestly too short a shoot!" Fatima, for her part, calls Madhavan "emotionally intelligent and sharp," saying, "I learned something from him every day on set. " Emotional visit back to school Interestingly, Madhavan paid a visit to his school during the shoot of 'Aap Jaisa Koi' in his hometown, Jamshedpur, Bihar. Speaking about the experience, he revealed to IANS that being in the school again reminded him of all the insecurities about his future that he used to feel as a student. "I got a chance to visit my old school, and as soon as I stepped in, all the insecurities I used to have about my future started coming back. Till 8- 9th standard, we used to only enjoy ourselves, but after that, I was scared about not being successful in life. I was suddenly reminded of all the trouble and pressure we used to go through during the last two years of school. I realized that I was scared for nothing- 'look at what is happening in life'. Back then when I could not clear IIT, my parents thought that my future is finished. What used to feel like such major concerns feel so light now in retrospect. Life always has something better in store for you." Helmed by Vivek Soni , 'Aap Jaisa Koi' premiered on Netflix on July 11.
