He addressed the widely speculated perception that Salman has mood swings on set, stating that he had never experienced such behaviour. 'We never had a moment that felt off. Over time, of course, life changes, and distance grows as people stop meeting, stop attending parties, and stop working together. But I never saw that side of him. In fact, people often misunderstand him,' he explained. Rishi also admitted that they used to drink together.
Rishi further spoke about Amitabh Bachchan, with whom he had done three films. They shared a mutual respect for one another. Even though Bachchan did not engage in lengthy conversations with Rishi, they maintained a good rapport on set. 'Love and respect can't be forced; they come from the heart,' he added.
He also described his bond with Akshay Kumar as 'strictly professional' and noted
Aamir

Aishwarya Rai once romanced with Salman Khan after breaking up with him, was involved in this intimate scene, film is…
It's been over two decades since Sanjay Leela Bhansali gave us all a cinematic masterpiece, Devdas . Starring Shah Rukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai, and Madhuri Dixit, the 2002 epic became a global sensation, celebrated for its grandeur, timeless music, and emotionally charged performances. But very few know, Salman Khan was also part of this iconic film… just not in the way you'd expect. The hidden cameo Though Devdas is remembered for Shah Rukh and Aishwarya's searing chemistry, film critic Anupama Chopra's book quietly reveals a forgotten anecdote: Salman Khan appeared in a scene during the song More Piya . The moment is romantic—a barefoot Aishwarya, a thorn, and a gentle gesture. But here's the twist: the scene was performed with no visible faces. Sanjay Leela Bhansali rolled the camera During the filming of More Piya , Salman Khan, despite a recent breakup with Aishwarya, visited the set out of friendship with Bhansali. As Shah Rukh and Aishwarya were preparing for the scene, Salman reportedly stepped forward and enacted the moment himself, guiding the actors. In a spontaneous decision, Bhansali let the camera roll as Salman delicately enacted Dev removing a thorn from Paro's foot. Though only hands and feet are shown, the final cut of the film features this emotionally nuanced shot—an intimate moment captured between two former lovers, without showing their faces. This became the last time Salman and Aishwarya shared screen space. Their relationship had ended by the time Devdas was being shot. Still, Salman's presence on set and this quiet contribution speak volumes about the emotional layers behind the camera. For Bhansali, perhaps it was cinema above all. For viewers, it remains an untold chapter—until now.

Viral: Man reveals how a technical glitch on Instagram almost ended his 12-year marriage
Image credits: Getty Images Until now, factors like cheating or lying could break up a marriage, but in a revelation going viral on Reddit, a man revealed how a technical glitch on Instagram almost ended his 12-year marriage. Taking to the relationships sub-thread on the social media app, a 34-year-old man shared how his wife, 32, almost broke up with him due to a harmless DM thread on Instagram he appeared to have sent during the weekend he was off-grid. He added how they resolved the issue but it showed the couple how fragile trust is and how scary technical glitches can be. The scary incident Image credits: Reddit "Hey Reddit, This might sound strange, but a silly bug on Instagram nearly ended my 12-year marriage." began the man in the post. He shared that he and his wife are from wife and have been together since college in Pune when they met during their B.A. days. Over the years, they tackled long-distance with her working in Hyderabad and him staying in Mumbai and even staying together through family pressure, hob stress and the loss of close ones. During all these years, trust had never been an issue for the couple but that changed two months ago when one evening they were chilling at home after dinner when his wife was scrolling through Instagram and suddenly gave him a "What is this?" look. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 한 달의 집중, 배우고 행동한 사람만이 느낀 변화 마크로헤지코리아 Undo Apparently, she had found a DM between him and a mutual friend of theirs which consisted of an old meme and some harmless banter. The problem here was the timestamp, wrote the man adding that according to Instagram, he had sent the message during a weekend when the couple were together at his wife's farmhouse in Lonavala, "completely off the grid, no mobile signal, no wifi" He added how his wife naturally got suspicious, considering it looked like he had lied about being offline and was secretly chatting with someone else. The difficult resolve Image credits: Getty Images The man added that he remembered that the conversation had happened months ago, way before the trip. He even found a screenshot in his gallery with the original date, but Instagram's glitch made it look recent and his wife didn't believe him. He shared how their relationship suffered with his wife becoming more distant and their usual "chai-time" conversations were replaced with awkward silences. He added feeling helpless with the effort of fighting something that looked "digitally true" Set on resolving the issue, he researched on Reddit, and tech forums and even approached Meta support. At that time, he found dozens of users, some even from India reporting the same bug: Instagram's DMs showing wrong timestamps, out-of-order messages and even replies appearing after the original message. He showed all the evidence to his wife and even recreated the glitch using another account. Gradually, she started believing him and they had a long, emotional conversation where it hit them how "fragile" trust can be and how quickly a few lines of code can shake a relationship. He shared his advice from the incident, suggesting people talk if something feels off in their relationship and not rely on what an app showed. "Sometimes it's not cheating, it's just bad software," he wrote.

Aamir Khan revisits Bollywood's underworld era: When he got an invite from someone dangerous
Aamir Khan has opened up about a disturbing chapter from the peak of his early stardom, when the Bollywood industry was grappling with underworld influence during the 1990s. In a recent interview with The Lallantop, the actor shared how he was approached multiple times by individuals linked to the underworld, who insisted he attend a party in the Middle East — likely in Dubai. Despite repeated offers of money and assistance, Khan stood firm in his refusal. Back then, Aamir had established himself as a major name in Hindi cinema following the success of Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak in 1988. But his rising fame also attracted the attention of some dangerous individuals. Without naming anyone, he said that some men approached him on a film set and later tried several times to convince him to attend the overseas gathering. Firm Refusal Despite Pressure Khan recalled that these individuals first offered financial incentives, along with promises to help with any professional need. When that didn't work, the tone shifted. According to the actor, the group eventually told him that his appearance had already been announced, making it a matter of prestige. However, Khan continued to decline. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Tiger reunites with the zookeeper after 5 years. See the tiger's reaction! Story To Hear Undo He told them clearly that if they wished, they could come any time and force him to go — by beating him or dragging him away — but he would never go of his own will. That meeting turned out to be their last interaction. After that, the group never contacted him again. Fear for Family's Safety While Aamir maintained a courageous front during the confrontation, he admitted he was deeply afraid at the time. What troubled him most was the safety of his family. He had two young children then, and his parents were deeply concerned for his well-being. Still, he remained steadfast in his decision, telling them that he simply wanted to live life on his own terms. At the time, he was married to Reena Dutta, with whom he had two children — Junaid and Ira. Their safety weighed heavily on his mind, but he did not allow fear to dictate his choices. Career Then and Now Aamir Khan also reflected briefly on his career, addressing a common debate around his 2007 directorial debut Taare Zameen Par. While Amol Gupte was the creative director who developed the concept, Khan explained that he eventually took over the direction himself after being dissatisfied with some of the filmed footage. He affirmed that he fully helmed the final version of the film. Currently, Aamir is enjoying the success of Sitaare Zameen Par, which has crossed ₹100 crore in India and earned over ₹160 crore globally. It has become one of the year's highest-grossing Hindi films. He is also producing Lahore 1947, a period drama directed by Rajkumar Santoshi, starring Sunny Deol and others. Additionally, he will make a cameo appearance in Coolie, a film led by Rajinikanth, which he agreed to join purely out of admiration for the legendary actor.
