We had previously reported that Tamil actor Vishnu Vishal and his wife, badminton player Jwala Gutta, welcomed their newborn daughter on April 22. On Sunday (July 6), the couple penned a note of gratitude to Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan, revealing that he travelled to Hyderabad to name their newborn daughter, Mira.
Vishnu and Jwala shared pictures from the naming ceremony on their social media handles. The pictures showed the couple and Jwala's parents along with Aamir. In one of the pictures, Vishnu's son from his previous marriage, Aryan, can also be seen with the couple.
Our 'Mira'!

Vishnu and Jwala got married in a private ceremony in Hyderabad on April 22, 2021. The celebrity couple had been dating for over two years before making it official.
Notably, Vishnu's friendship with Aamir goes back to 2023. The friendship came to light when Aamir, who was in Chennai to take care of his ailing mother, got stranded along with Vishnu and his family at the latter's Karapakkam residence after Cyclone Michaung devastated the city. They were later rescued by Tamil Nadu Fire and Rescue Services in a boat.
Shortly after the same, Vishnu shared a picture with Aamir Khan and Tamil superstar Ajith Kumar, stating that Ajith helped their community members with necessary travel arrangements. The same year, Aamir joined Vishnu in attending the birthday celebrations of veteran actor Kamal Haasan in Chennai.
Notably, Vishnu and Jwala also attended the wedding reception of Aamir's daughter Ira Khan in Udaipur last year.
On the work front, Aamir, last seen in Sitaare Zameen Par, will be seen soon in a special appearance in Rajinikanth's Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj. Interestingly, Aamir and Lokesh are teaming up for a big-scale superhero action film set to go into production in 2026. The actor is also set to begin working on his dream project, Mahabharata, and a biopic on pioneering filmmaker and the father of Indian cinema, Dadasaheb Phalke, with director Rajkumar Hirani.
Vishnu, on the other hand, was last seen in Aishwarya Rajinikanth's social sports drama Lal Salaam. The actor has Aaryan, an untitled film with director Gokul, a film with director Arunraja Kamaraj, a film with director Sathish Selvakumar of Bachelor fame, Irandu Vaanam, co-starring Mamitha Baiju, and the long-delayed Mohandas in the pipeline.

Ranveer Singh's Dhurandhar co-star Sara Arjun once played alongside Salman Khan in Jai Ho; take a look

Ranveer Singh, 40, might be leading the charge in the upcoming action thriller Dhurandhar, but all eyes are on his co-star Sara Arjun — and for good reason. The 18-year-old actor, who will be seen sharing the screen with Ranveer for the first time, isn't exactly a newcomer. In fact, she's acted opposite another Bollywood giant, Salman Khan, long before Dhurandhar was even imagined. Ranveer Singh, Sara Arjun and Salman Khan Yes, you read that right. Sara Arjun played the role of a schoolgirl in Jai Ho (2014), featuring Salman Khan in the lead. At the time, she was only a child, but already making waves in both Bollywood and the South film industries. Now, over a decade later, she's back in the spotlight, and this time, she's the leading lady. From child prodigy to pan-India performer Born on June 18, 2005, Sara Arjun is the daughter of actor Raj Arjun, known for Secret Superstar. By the time she was six, Sara had already starred in over 100 commercials. Her big break came in the Tamil film Deiva Thirumagal (2011), where she played the daughter of a mentally challenged father. She then went on to deliver powerful performances in Saivam (2014), Ek Thi Daayan (2013), Chithirayil Nilachoru (2013), and the acclaimed anthology Sillu Karuppatti (2019). More recently, audiences saw her portraying a younger version of Aishwarya Rai's character in Mani Ratnam's Ponniyin Selvan 2 (2023). Dhurandhar: A big debut (again) Directed by Aditya Dhar (Uri: The Surgical Strike), Dhurandhar is being touted as one of the biggest action spectacles of 2025. Unveiled by Jio Studios and B62 Studios on Ranveer Singh's birthday, the film also stars Sanjay Dutt, Akshaye Khanna, R. Madhavan, and Arjun Rampal. The high-octane first look is set to a pulsating soundtrack by Shashwat, featuring vocals by Jasmine Sandlas and a special collaboration with genre-blending artist Hanumankind. But while the film's visuals are grabbing attention, so is the casting. Sara's pairing with Ranveer Singh — who is nearly 20 years her senior — has raised eyebrows online. Some netizens have expressed surprise at the age gap, sparking a familiar conversation in Bollywood about onscreen pairings.

When Anushka Sharma reacted to losing her debut award to Asin: 'I got very upset...'

The year 2008 marked the arrival of two different yet impactful female leads in Bollywood—Anushka Sharma, who made her debut with Shah Rukh Khan in 'Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi,' and Asin, who was in the movie with Aamir Khan in 'Ghajini. ' Both performances were lauded, both films were box office successes, and both actresses were nominated. Although when the envelope opened, it was Asin who took home the trophy. 'I was very upset… I cried like a child' In a resurfaced 2018 interview on 'Look Who's Talking With Niranjan,' Anushka candidly recalled her heartbreak, saying, 'I'm very upset they didn't give it to me. I made my calculation, you know. Asin had already done Ghajini in Tamil, Telugu, and maybe Kannada. She's already been an actress for many years. Obviously, they won't give it to her! Debut toh mera hua hai, main nayi hoon, maine nayi film mein kaam kiya hai. I need the encouragement.' In spite of clapping for Asin during the ceremony, Anushka admitted she was devastated afterwards, as she said, 'I cried like a child—as if I didn't get a certificate in school.' The 'debut' debate: Fresh face vs. first Hindi film Anushka's frustration was not just all personal; it became a larger industry debate. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo The question though lies what truly defines a debut? While 'Ghajini' was Asin's first Hindi film, she was already a popular star in South Indian cinema. Anushka, on the other hand, was a complete newcomer, stepping into the spotlight with no prior screen experience. This distinction, Anushka felt, should have mattered. She emphasised, 'She's already an actress. I was new. I needed the encouragement.' A-Sin or just a sin? In a cheeky moment on 'Koffee With Karan,' Anushka even referred to Asin as 'A-Sin,' a pun that reflected her lingering disappointment. While said as a joke, it ignored how deeply the moment had affected her. Where they stand today Asin stepped away from acting after 'All Is Well,' choosing to focus on family life. Anushka, meanwhile, has shaped herself into one of the Bollywood's most respected actors and producers. Her upcoming film 'Chakda 'Xpress,' which is based on the cricketer Jhulan Goswami, is among the most expected biopics in recent memory.
