Simran Singh To Join Advocate Anjali Awasthi's Cast As Show Takes 20-Year Leap
Simran Singh's entry in Advocate Anjali Awasthi will reportedly bring an intriguing twist to the current track of the show.
Star Plus' popular show Advocate Anjali Awasthi is all set to take a dramatic 20-year leap, ushering in an emotional new chapter for fans. Post-leap, Shritama Mitra will continue in the lead, taking on a challenging double role as both Anjali Awasthi and her daughter Aarti Awasthi. Joining the cast as a parallel lead is Simran Singh, known for her role in Qayamat Se Qayamat.
As reported by Telly Chakkar, Simran Singh has been roped in to play a key role Advocate Anjali Awasthi after the much anticipated leap. A source told the portal that Simran's entry in the show will bring an exciting factor, adding an intriguing twist to the current track of the show.
Ever since its premiere last year, Advocate Anjali Awasthi has been one of the fans' favourite shows, thanks to its compelling narrative. Alongside Shritama Mitra, Ankit Raizada also played the lead role in the show and won hearts with his compelling and bold performance. While Shritama has been retained to play the lead in the show even after the leap, Ankit has reportedly decided to quit for his personal growth and aim to explore new roles.
Meanwhile, Anshul Bammi, who portrays the role of Yuvraj Thakur, has also decided to exit the show. While talking to Times Of India, the actor revealed the reason behind his decision, saying, 'I would like to clarify that my decision to step away from the show is not related to the age of the character. I have no hesitation in portraying a character older than my actual age. However, with the recent leap in the storyline, I believe the focus of the show will now shift more towards the new cast."
It needs to be noted that Advocate Anjali Awasthi is inspired by the Bengali hit Geeta LLB. The Hindi adaptation of the show has garnered impressive TRP ratings, even securing its place in the top 5 spots in the charts. The show, produced by Blues Productions, follows a fearless and resolute woman who fights against all odds and powerful foes in her relentless pursuit of justice.

Ekta Kapoor has been in the TV industry for 30 years. She has made iconic shows like 'Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi' and 'Kahani Ghar Ghar Ki'. This is the reason why she is called the Queen of TV. Recently, filmmaker Pahlaj Nihalani has vented his anger on Ekta Kapoor and accused her of ruining Indian culture through her TV shows. Pahlaj Nihalani On Changes In Hindi Films In an interview with YouTube channel Learn from the Legends, Pahlaj Nihalani was asked what he thinks about the changes in Hindi films and how the taste of the audience has changed now. In response to this, the filmmaker said, 'Shah Rukh Khan, who was once known for romance in films like Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, is nowadays seen carrying a gun in his films. So these kinds of films are trending now.' He further said, 'Look at 'RRR,' which was based on 'Ramayana' and 'Mahabharata' and then 'Kalki 2898 AD' which was completely inspired by 'Mahabharata.' Hindustani culture is still very strong in our society. Pahlaj Nihalani Takes A Dig At Ekta Kapoor Pahlaj Nihalani further said, 'Lekin phir hamen darshakon ke roop men aisi cheezein parosi jaa rahi hain, jaise ki ek ladki ki teen logon ke saath shaadi ho rahi hai. Ekta Kapoor, the great, yahan purushon ko dobara shaadi karne ki bhi ijaajat nahin hai aur wo aurton ki teen-teen baar shaadi karwa rahi hain, to hamaari sanskṛiti barbaad ho rahi hai.' Pahlaj concluded his statement whle saying, 'Earlier, very few erotic films were released and now she is getting sex done even in the air.'

‘Metro... In Dino' Box Office Collection Day 1: Anurag Basu's romantic drama opens to a modest theatrical response
Anurag Basu's long-awaited ensemble drama 'Metro... In Dino' opened in Indian cinemas on July 4, 2025, earning an estimated ₹ 3.35 crore on its first day, according to early trade figures. The film, positioned as a spiritual successor to 2007's 'Life in a... Metro', had generated moderate pre-release interest, primarily due to its star-studded cast and the nostalgia associated with Basu's original. Despite the director's reputation and a seasoned ensemble including Anupam Kher, Neena Gupta, Pankaj Tripathi, Konkona Sen Sharma, Aditya Roy Kapur, and Sara Ali Khan, the first-day response appears to have been tepid overall, particularly in terms of occupancy rates. Nationally, the Day 1 Hindi (2D) occupancy averaged around 12.72%, with a slight uptick in the evening shows (17.99%) compared to the morning (8.64%) and afternoon (14.24%) slots. Notably, there were no recorded numbers for night shows, either due to data unavailability or cancellations. Regionally, the turnout was varied. Chennai led the charts with a high 41% occupancy, followed by Bengaluru at 28.33% and Kolkata at 18.33%. The Mumbai and NCR regions—typically dependable urban markets—saw modest showings at 14.33% and 15% respectively. In contrast, cities like Surat (4%) and Ahmedabad (7%) recorded weak footfalls. 'Metro... In Dino' weaves together multiple narratives of modern love and relationships, echoing the structure of its 2007 predecessor but rooted in contemporary urban settings. Shot across major cities including Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Lucknow, the film explores themes of emotional distance, second chances, and the quiet complexities of everyday romance. Produced by T-Series and Anurag Basu Productions, the film blends musical storytelling with ensemble drama—a format that worked well in Life in a... Metro but now faces a more segmented and streaming-oriented audience. Whether word-of-mouth can drive weekend numbers remains to be seen, but as it stands, 'Metro... In Dino' has had a modest start at the box office.

Before this film released, puja was performed in theatre, audience watched it after removing…, not Adipurush, Ramayana, film is…
In 1975, a unique sight was seen outside the cinema hall. Women from nearby villages and towns, many of them elderly, came to watch the film in buses, carts and bullock carts. Inside the hall, many women would remove their slippers. Some were barefoot. They watched the story on the screen with reverence and wonder, as if they were attending a satsang. 'Jai Santoshi Maa' was not just a religious film for them, but a life-affirming one. Before this film began, puja used to happen in theatre All this was repeated for months in hundreds of small towns and villages across the country. This film by first-time director Vijay Sharma was released on 30 May 1975, when the Emergency was four weeks away from being imposed in the country. 'Sholay' was released on 15 August, but no one could stop the popularity of the low-budget 'Jai Santoshi Maa'. Viewers would offer coins, flowers and rice to the screen. How did Jai Santoshi Maa become a huge success? In the 1975 trade guide annual report, 'Jai Santoshi Maa' and 'Sholay' were given blockbuster status above 'Deewar'. The film celebrated golden and silver jubilees in many cities. According to Film Information magazine, a separate 9 am show for women was started in Malad, Bombay. The impact of this film was not limited to just revenue. From the silent era to the 1960s, religious films were continuously made in the cinema market of Bombay. They were mocked by the educated urban people, but had a huge fan base among the common people. The opening credits of the film were written in Hindi, not in English, which was common at that time. The production of religious films decreased in the 1970s. Most of the films were unsuccessful except 'Sampoorna Ramayan' in 1973. 'Jai Santoshi Maa' produced by Satram Rohra breathed new life into this waning market.
