Riddhima Kapoor broke down during debut film shoot with Neetu Kapoor; says last time she cried publicly was when Rishi Kapoor died
In a recent interaction with E Times, Riddhima shared that she recently wrapped a 40-day shoot in the beautiful town of Mashobra near Shimla with her mother, and the experience brought them closer. She revealed that the last time they had spent quality time together was when she had her daughter, Samara Sahni.
She also revealed that her brother and actor Ranbir Kapoor was very excited when he got to know about her big-screen debut. 'I'd send him photos of my looks and clips from scenes, just to get his opinion,' she said.
Riddhima also shared some behind-the-scenes details of the film's shoot. She revealed that a particular scene in the film moved her so emotionally that she cried a lot. She expressed that the last time she had cried openly in public was when her father, Rishi Kapoor, had passed away in 2020. She said, 'The last time I cried openly was when dad passed away. But this scene – without any glycerine – just broke me. The emotions were so real, and my mom was shaken seeing me like that,' she said.
Riddhima had earlier shared behind-the-scenes moments with the film's cast. In one photo, she and her mother Neetu were seen sitting together against a beautiful backdrop, waiting for the shoot to begin. Another picture showed them gathered around a bonfire with Kapil Sharma and other cast members.

Park Bo Young wanted to run away on first day of Netflix's Our Unwritten Seoul: ‘I was scared viewers wouldn't see…'
Park Bo Young, in a recent interview with Dispatch Korea, opened up about the pressure she felt while signing on to Netflix's Our Unwritten Seoul. While the actor admitted that the script was too tempting to pass up and felt like the perfect opportunity to try something new in her career, she also confessed to feeling nervous and wanting to back out, worried that fans might not receive it well due to her heavy screen presence. Little did she know, the K-drama would end up dominating global OTT charts for weeks, with hitmakers like Squid Game, which recently dropped its third season. Also read: Our Unwritten Seoul first impression: Does Park Bo Young even need a male lead in her K-dramas anymore? Hailed for carrying the show on her shoulders with unmatched energy and talent, Park didn't just play twins, she portrayed four different versions of the same person. The actor managed to convey 'unknown' and 'future,' plus each pretending to be the other. Bo Young, who rose to fame with the rom-com Strong Woman Do Bong Soon, shared that despite spending so many years in the industry, it was not an easy task. Before filming even began, she admitted, 'I really wanted to run away.' But she couldn't resist the strong script and those comforting lines she believed viewers would connect with. She added, 'I was worried that viewers would think I was just appearing twice. I loved it when (the public) could distinguish between the future and the unknown.' In the K-drama, Bo Young plays Mirae, one of the twins, who is more responsible, hides her pain well, keeps her hair neat, and goes heavy on the eyeliner. Miji, on the other hand, is the exact opposite: loose strands, light liner, and not afraid to speak her mind or call out what's wrong. One works in a corporate firm in Seoul, the other lost her career as an athlete after an accident and has since been juggling multiple jobs to support her family. Their voices and body language are distinct as well. Mirae stays composed, while Miji moves more freely, more raw. Even when they switch places, Bo Young slips in small overlaps, never overplaying it. 'Ah! I really felt a lot of pressure. It was only after I agreed to do it that I thought, 'What have I done?' I wasn't sure I could pull it off. I struggled a lot on set and felt like a failure,' Bo Young recalled. 'It's been so long since my TV drama, but thankfully, there are so many good responses. I'm busy searching (for comments),' she added. Also read: Squid Game 3 ending: 7 burning questions answered in Netflix thriller finale; future possibilities explored Even on set, she revealed relying solely on her acting skills, given the technical hurdles. Twin scenes were shot with stunt doubles and later stitched together with CG, but sometimes she had to match eye levels alone and acted solo against nothing but imagination. She says, 'This was my first time doing something like this. It was really difficult, but I think I've grown a lot.' Bo Young's recent role comes after her praiseworthy performances in Concrete Utopia and Morning Comes to the Mental Ward, showing a change in her career trajectory from earlier rom-coms and softer roles. Meanwhile, she is also gearing up for her next series, Goldland, set to hit Disney+ screens. Park Bo Young has been acting since she was a teen, and it has already been 20 years for her in the industry, with shows like Healer, Daily Dose of Sunshine, Oh My Ghost, etc. She remembered the early days when directors scolded her so much she'd cry. 'I wondered if I was cut out for this,' she said. But thanks to those doubts, she kept going. Now, she sounds humble and grateful. 'Acting feels like it was my destiny,' she says. 'After twenty years, I feel like I've grown a little. I just want to keep conveying my heart when I read scripts.'

'I could prove them wrong': Victoria Kalina exposes Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders' politics after shock exit reflects on life after
Victoria Kalina has transitioned to New York City to pursue her Broadway dreams (Image via IG) Victoria Kalina, once a standout face of the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders and Netflix's America's Sweethearts, is now chasing her dreams far from the turf of AT&T Stadium. The fan-favorite veteran, who left the squad after season 1 of the docuseries, has since traded Texas for New York City—and she's not looking back. From cheerleader fame to chasing Broadway: Victoria Kalina 's leap of faith Victoria Kalina's exit from the DCC was one of the most emotional moments in the Netflix series. Despite four seasons on the squad and aspirations of being named a group leader, Kalina was told it wasn't likely she'd get the role. Rather than stay another year without that title, she bowed out on her own terms. 'Yes, I could prove them wrong and yes I would love to, but I don't need to,' she said on-camera. 'I know I proved them, like, over and over, time and time again. I don't need to do it again.' While her departure surprised many, Kalina quickly embraced a new direction: pursuing her childhood dream of becoming a Radio City Rockette. In a June 2024 YouTube video, she shared her decision to move to New York. 'I've always known that after cheering for the Cowboys I wanted to continue my dance journey in New York City,' she said. 'I just hop in and train my little hiney off.' The rejection that didn't break her spirit In spring 2025, Kalina auditioned for the Rockettes—but didn't make the cut.

Rather than retreat, Kalina leaned into training harder. She now teaches at NYC's Ripley-Grier Studios and takes classes at Broadway Dance Center and Steps on Broadway, fully immersing herself in the professional dance world. 'Spectacular moments, spectacular dancing and a spectacular experience to keep the momentum going,' she wrote of her 10-month journey in the city. In interviews, Kalina has spoken candidly about embracing vulnerability and authenticity. Her story resonates with fans because she's not pretending everything is perfect—she's showing the grind behind the glitter. 'New York City and everything that has come together so far has been just so smooth. It's meant to be,' she told Glamour.

Netflix's Running Point season 2 begins filming in August, targets spring 2026 release
Production on the second season of the popular show, Running Point, is officially on the calendar. According to a report from What's on Netflix, the hit series is set to start filming season 2 on August 11, 2025, returning to its Los Angeles home base. Shooting is expected to continue through November 20. The series was approved for a second season just a week after its debut on February 27, following strong viewership worldwide. Netflix's Running Point season 2 will begin filming next month.(UnSplash) What's on Netflix reports that Running Point spent five weeks in the global Top 10 and was watched for over 168 million hours across 89 countries. Kaling and Hudson are back, along with the full team Co-creator and executive producer Mindy Kaling said earlier this year that the team was overwhelmed by the fan response. 'We still cannot believe the reaction,' she shared in a statement after the renewal was announced in March. She also gave credit to the cast, led by Kate Hudson, and executive producers Jeanie Buss and Linda Rambis. Hudson will reprise her lead role, and most of the original cast is expected to return, including Brenda Song, Drew Tarver, Scott MacArthur, Fabrizio Guido, Toby Sandeman, and Chet Hanks. Production is being handled again by Warner Bros. Television, with the budget reportedly in the $30 million to $50 million range per season. Will Running Point stream this year While fans might be hoping for a late 2025 drop, that timeline isn't realistic. Based on the production window, post-production will stretch into early next year. What's on Netflix suggests an April 2026 release is likely if things stay on track. That date would place Running Point well within the Emmy eligibility window, which has a May end cutoff. Schedules this far out are always subject to change. Delays are always possible. Still, with filming locked in and most of the cast returning, it looks like Netflix is moving forward on schedule. More updates should be expected this fall, as What's on Netflix is also preparing a full preview of Netflix's upcoming production slate. FAQs When does Running Point season 2 start filming? Filming is scheduled to begin on August 11, 2025, and will continue through late November in Los Angeles. Will the original cast return for season 2? Yes. Most of the main cast, including Kate Hudson, Brenda Song, and Drew Tarver, is expected to return for the new season. Is Running Point season 2 coming out in 2025? No. Based on the current production timeline, the second season won't be ready until sometime in spring 2026. Where can I watch Running Point? Season 1 is currently streaming on Netflix. Season 2 will also be released on Netflix once it premieres.
