Meet actress who is Mukesh Ambani's daughter, Isha Ambani's childhood friend, went to the same school, has delivered many hits, her name is...
In the glitzy and glamorous world of Bollywood, celebrities and public figures are always under high scrutiny. From their red-carpet appearance, airports look to their interpersonal relationships; every move, every step is observed. However, it is often assumed that celebrities and their friendships are purely for status and lack depth and emotions.
However, there is one such friendship of two famous personalities that has stood out and been the talk of the town. Yes, we are talking about the actress Kiara Advani, and the daughter of Asia's richest man's Isha Ambani. The friendship of this duo has often been scrutinized and has been in the headlines.
Kiara Advani (formerly, Alia Advani) and Isha Ambani hold a long-standing friendship. Their bond goes back to childhood. Long before Kiara Advani became a famous actress and Isha Ambani became famous as the heiress of the Ambani Dynasty, they both attended the school, Cathedral and John Connon School, Mumbai. They have shared a close bond since then and continue to maintain that bond even today.
Back in 2018, when Isha Ambani got engaged to Anand Piramal, Kiara Advani took to ber Instagram and shared some a series of childhood pictures with Isha Ambani and wrote a heartfelt caption calling Isha her 'oldest friend, She further said, ''Never let the child inside you grow up. Forever yours, Aliu'. Their friendship looks grounded in reality, far from the superficial world of vanity.
However, besides their genuine bond, people have falsely made some assumptions about Kiara Advani, her struggles and the privilege she would get from being friends with Isha Ambani. In an interview, Kiara openly spoke about being judged for her friendship with Isha, as if she would have some personal gains. 'If I post a photo with my school friend, who happens to be the heiress of the country, people immediately say, 'How dare she talk about struggle?'' Kiara expressed. 'But I'm not her. Her wealth has nothing to do with my work life or my journey, she said.
But despite this negativity, Kiara Advani and Isha Ambani's friendship remains intact, and she has always been clear that her friendship and her professional life have never had any relation. Kiara has carved her own niche and made a name for herself in this industry. She has delivered many superhits.
Kiara Advani has also said that while people associate a 'big tag' with being friends with Isha Ambani, real friendship transcends beyond the social labels.

What is frontotemporal dementia? All about the condition Bruce Willis suffers from (early signs to watch out for)
The 'Die Hard' Hollywood legend Bruce Willis , reportedly, has become non-verbal and immobile now, as his battle with frontotemporal dementia worsens. Known for his decades-spanning career in action, drama, and comedy, Willis officially stepped away from acting in 2022 following a diagnosis of aphasia and was later diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia, a progressive neurological condition that affects personality, language, and motor skills. Although there have been rumors that Willis is bedridden or losing his speech, Emma Heming Willis, his wife, set the record straight when she posted a clear message to both fans and the media on her Instagram Stories, saying: "To Whom It May Concern: If you ever come across a story that begins with "sources close to the family say...," do yourself a favor and stop reading." But what is frontotemporal dementia (FTD)? How does it affect personality, language, and motor skills? What is frontotemporal dementia (FTD) Frontotemporal dementia, also known as frontotemporal degeneration (FTD), encompasses a group of disorders caused by progressive nerve cell loss in the brain's frontal and temporal lobes. These lobes govern personality, emotional regulation, language, and movement. Over time, the affected brain regions shrink and connectivity breaks down, leading to significant cognitive and behavioral symptoms. FTD is rare but devastating; unlike Alzheimer's, it often strikes between the ages of 45 and 65, though cases can appear earlier or later. FTD accounts for approximately 10–20% of all dementia diagnoses and is the most common form in individuals under 60. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Stylish New Mobility Scooters Available for Seniors (Prices May Surprise You) Mobility Scooter | Search Ads Search Now Undo Subtypes of FTD Behavioral‑variant FTD (bvFTD): The most frequent type, formerly known as Pick's disease, is characterized by changes in personality and behavior such as impulsivity, apathy, inappropriate social conduct, poor judgment, and compulsions. Primary progressive aphasia (PPA): A language‑based variant affecting speech production or comprehension. Within this group are: Non‑fluent variant (nfvPPA): stumbling or labored speech. Semantic variant (svPPA): loss of word meaning and object recognition Movement‑related FTD: Though less common, it is associated with disorders such as corticobasal syndrome, progressive supranuclear palsy, or ALS‑related FTD, leading to tremors, stiffness, or mobility issues. Risk factors Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) risk factors include a family history of FTD (especially a parent or sibling with FTD), genetic mutations, and possibly head trauma. While some cases are familial and linked to specific genes, most are considered sporadic, with no clear family history. Other factors like age (most common between 40 and 65) and certain lifestyle factors (like head injuries) may also play a role. FTD often results from abnormal protein buildup in brain cells, including tau or TDP-43, leading to cell death and lobar atrophy. About 30–50% of cases involve a genetic component; mutations in genes like MAPT, PGRN, or C9ORF72 are common culprits. Early signs to watch for Recognizing FTD early can be challenging, as symptoms are often mistaken for psychiatric issues or stress. Typical early signs include: Personality or behavior changes: Reduced empathy, inappropriate social conduct, impulsivity, apathy, neglect of hygiene, compulsions. Language difficulties: Difficulty speaking or understanding language, word-finding problems, simplified or hesitant speech. Executive dysfunction: Problems with planning, organizing, and multitasking; distractions increase. Emerging motor symptoms (in some): Tremors, stiffness, poor coordination, swallowing issues, or difficulty walking emerge later in certain variants. Diagnosis and prognosis Diagnosis involves neurological exam, cognitive testing, gathering detailed medical history (often from family), and imaging such as MRI or PET to detect frontal and/or temporal lobe shrinkage or metabolic changes. FTD typically progresses steadily, with survival ranging from 2 to 20 years, averaging around 6–10 years post-diagnosis. There is no cure or disease-modifying treatment for FTD. Management focuses on addressing symptoms, providing support, and improving quality of life. Treatment strategies include medications for behavioral and mood changes, speech and physical therapy, and strategies for managing daily living tasks and communication. Furthermore, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are administered to reduce disinhibition, while speech, occupational, and behavioral therapies assist daily function.
