Drunk Sanjay Dutt, irritated Javed Akhtar, short Salman Khan: Sanket Bhosale's mimicry leaves Archana Puran Singh and Parmeet Sethi in splits

Indian Express2 days ago

Archana Puran Singh and Parmeet Sethi have shared a small-scale vlog, for a change. After posting several food vlogs filmed across Mumbai, and then sharing a series of travel vlogs from their recent trip to Switzerland, the couple invited comedians Sanket Bhosale and Sugandha Mishra to their Madh Island home, and spent an afternoon chilling with them. Sanket and Sugandha, who met over a decade ago, tied the knot in 2020. They're both well known for their impressions of celebrities such as Sonu Nigam, Sanjay Dutt, Usha Uthup and Kangana Ranaut. They have dozens of more impressions in their repertoire.
Upon arriving, Sanket and Sugandha immediately made jokes about Archana and Parmeet's wealth. Sugandha thanked Archana for the support she showed to her back in the day, when she'd appear on comedy shows on television. She also told Parmeet that all of Punjab considers him to be a son of the soil, and are extremely proud of his achievements. 'When DDLJ came out, we all went crazy for Parmeet sir,' she said. They were joined by Archana and Parmeet's sons, Ayushmaan and Aaryamann.

Archana asked them to perform some of their best impressions, and Sanket proceeded to mimic Sanjay Dutt, making references to the actor's stints in jail, his former drug habit, and his bulky physique. Sugandha, meanwhile, sang like Usha Uthup and Asha Bhosle. She also mimicked Kangana Ranaut, and made snappy remarks at the others. Sanket did impressions of both Farhan Akhtar and Javed Akhtar, making jokes that implied the veteran lyricist is annoyed by his son's singing voice, and that Farhan doesn't write original material.
Later, Archana and Parmeet took them to their in-house gym, where Sanket did more impressions of Sanjay Dutt. He made jokes about Sanjay's love for alcohol, and then did an impression of Salman Khan where he struggled to reach the monkey bars. Then, Sanket sat down on the floor and did an impression of actor Pankaj Tripathi. Archana and her family were in splits, laughing endlessly at their jokes and their mimicry. Parmeet gave Sanket his blessings, and seemed to be truly impressed with his talent. Extremely talented couple. Maza agaya dekhkar inhe. Bollywood m jana chahiye inhe,' one fan wrote in the comments section. 'Wow what a beautiful couple,' another person commented.

Indiafication of fashion: How global luxury is basically shopping in Sarojini now

Digital journalist, news junkie, and self-proclaimed gossip connoisseur. If it's trending, she's talking about it. From national to international affairs, she's got an eye for the big stories — when she's not busy, she's turning her canvas into a masterpiece. A journalist with a centrist approach and a love for the messy, thrilling world of news. LESS ... MORE Forget yoga on the Ganga, yaar. India isn't just trending, we're low-key taking over the global fashion scene. One Kolhapuri at a time. Let's get this straight. Indians have never been behind in fashion. We created drapes before the West learned about belts. And now, fashion finally catches up, by taking our style and selling it back to us for the price of a small 2BHK in Mumbai (on rent). Take Prada, for example. Their latest 'innovative' sandal bears a suspicious resemblance to what your chacha wears to the market. You know, good old Kolhapuri chappal. Now just with a posh label and a four-figure price tag in Euros. Shabash, Prada. Heritage hai, but haute-ify it. When Milan went full Maharashtra: Prada's Kolhapuri knockoff At Prada's Spring/Summer 2026 men's show in Milan, the models walked the ramp in sandals that made every Indian blink twice. 'Is that? Is that a Kolhapuri chappal?' Yes, beta. But now it's 'Artisanal leather sandal with toe loop.' Fancy. Even the invitation card for the show had a leather toe ring. Somewhere in Kolhapur, a mochi likely got a hiccup and did not know why. People on X in India, of course, lost it. 'You're welcome, Prada. Next time, give us a shoutout.' Because while the sandals walked the global ramp, the credit quietly walked out the back door. Kolhapuri 101: For those who missed the memo In case you've been living under a Swiss rock, the Kolhapuri chappal is not just footwear, it's a way of life. Handcrafted in Maharashtra for over a century, these leather beauties are tough, timeless, and totally wedding-approved. They've even got a GI tag, okay? That's like a VIP pass in the world of craftsmanship. So no, it's not 'rustic minimalism.' It's pure desi swag. Louis Vuitton tries an Indian wedding starter pack Not wanting to be left behind in this cosplay of culture, Louis Vuitton released a fresh range of trunks that yell 'mere cousin ki shaadi is in Noida.' Monogrammed, yes. Luxury, perhaps. Original, definitely not. All Indians will agree that these 'private travel trunks' resemble the very ones Sharma aunty has piled up in her storeroom from her daughter's wedding in 2004. Only LV omitted the nariyal and haldi stains. Puebco's Jhola drama: Now on sale at Nordstrom for Rs 4,200 Ah yes, the humble jhola. That cotton bag you receive free with Basmati rice. Or to carry sabzi in. Or books. Or dreams. Now enter Puebco's rendition. The 'Indian Souvenir Bag.' It's listed on Nordstrom's site for $48. Our verdict? Somewhere in India, an uncle in a banyan is laughing and muttering, 'Arre, mere wale mein jaida jagah hai.' Flashback: Do you remember the polybag purse? Balenciaga once attempted to sell what appeared to be a plastic thela for $2,000. Dior embarked on an embroidery shopping spree in Jaipur. H&M collaborated with Sabyasachi and retailed you what you could purchase from FabIndia, only ten times more expensive and with a waiting list. Moral of the story? Indian design is the moment. But Indian designers are nowhere to be found in the credits. So… appreciation or just appropri-yawn? We get it. Indian motifs are pretty. Embroidery is detailed. Chappals are comfy. But if you're lifting our designs, at least name-drop us, no? It's one thing to be inspired. It's another to repackage a Kolhapuri chappal as 'Rustic Milanese Footwear.' Baba, it's Kolhapuri. Say it. Spell it. Credit it. India's fashion revenge tour has begun From jholas to juttis, desi fashion is dominating international runways, and it's high time we took our place. If a chappal can strut the ramp in Milan, we can enter the dialogue and ask for our due. The next time you spot a $5,000 lehenga on a Paris catwalk, simply say, 'Sab kuch copy hai.' And smile. Because the world may be late to the party, but we threw it. Facebook Twitter Linkedin Email Disclaimer Views expressed above are the author's own.

Amrish Puri lost his memory after shooting under a waterfall for an Ajay Devgn film: ‘Kaun hu main, kya kar raha hu?'

Every Kajol fan must have come across her famous behind-the-scenes story of temporarily losing her memory on the sets of Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. But, did you know late actor Amrish Puri also went through a similar experience? Amrish Puri was shooting with Kajol's husband, actor Ajay Devgn, when he had a short-term memory loss. He lost his memory for at least three hours, creating a panic on the set. While recounting her experience on Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Kajol said in an interview with Mashable India that her on-screen dad from Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge (DDLJ) went through a similar experience. 'Amrish ji ki bhi yaadash gayi thi (Amrish Puri too lost his memory),' said the actress. She explained, 'He was shooting for a film with Ajay (Devgn) and he had to give a shot from under a waterfall. And one can only imagine the kind of force a waterfall has… Ajay told me there was no padding on his head so when he came out of the waterfall, he couldn't remember a thing.' ALSO READ | Shefali Jariwala once posed competition to Priyanka Chopra and Lara Dutta, but secret illness stalled career: 'Suffered epilepsy since 15' 'He was all like, 'Kaun hu mai? Kya kar raha hu (Who am I? What am I doing)?' They were all so worried about him (on set). He also took about three hours and eventually regained his memory.' Kajol said that the story might sound funny, but it was very serious. Amrish Puri and Ajay Devgn have collaborated for several films including Taarzan: The Wonder Car, Phool Aur Kaante, Hulchula and Gair, among others. In the same interview, Kajol shared that Amrish Puri had a fondness for her husband Ajay Devgn after they collaborated on multiple films together. 'He loved Ajay', told Kajol. Amrish Puri died in 2005 at the age of 72 after suffering from myelodysplastic syndrome, a rare kind of blood cancer. He also underwent a brain surgery as part of his treatment just days before his death.
