I am more confident about experimenting with roles now: Mitra Gadhvi
Mitra with Salman Khan on the set of Sikandar
2025 has been a happening year for
Mitra Gadhvi
so far. While both his D-Town releases, Bhram and Mithada Maheman, fared well at the box office, he also shared screen space with
Salman Khan
in Sikandar. Mitra shares, 'Last year was good for me too, as people loved my character in Fakt Purusho Maate and the film did really well. I also enjoyed doing The Great Gujarati Matrimony
.
I am happy that the first half of 2025 has been so good for me. Mithada Maheman was a very different film, and I was eagerly waiting for Bhram
to hit the screens.
With Bhram doing so well and audiences accepting my character whole-heartedly, I am more confident about experimenting with roles now. I was disheartened when Bhram didn't do well initially, as we knew we had made a good film. Thankfully, things changed completely from the third day onwards. Fans sent me messages like 'This is Mitra 2.0' and 'You are not Loy (from Chhello Divas) anymore'. People have told me that they want me to play more such roles.
'
The actor, who did bungee jumping in Ladakh last year, is also looking forward to taking a break. He says, 'I travel to new destinations with friends every year. In September-October, we plan to explore the beauty of Munsyari (in Uttarakhand).'
'I am keen to do an action film now'
Althoughpeople have loved him incomedies like 3 Ekka, Shu Thayu? and Chhello Divas, Mitra says he is now keen to explore different genres. He shares, 'I will still do comedies, as I love the genre, but I will experiment a lot more and explore different genres now.

I am very keen to do an action film, and I also want to play a negative lead. I have always wanted to explore different genres and now, I am finally being offered a variety of roles.
'
He adds, 'I am excited about Naankhatai, my upcoming Gujarati film, which has a very heartwarming story. I am also in talks for a few other exciting projects. Usually, we see one or two big hits in a year in D-Town. But this year, we have already seen five-six movies doing well at the box office, and a few more big releases are in the pipeline.
2025 promises to be the biggest year for Gujarati cinema.'
'Salman Khan is one of the most chilled out co-stars'
Sharing his experience of sharing screen space with Salman Khan in Sikandar, Mitra says, 'On the first day of the shoot in Hyderabad, my first shot was with him, where he had to slap me. Initially, I was a bit nervous, but Salman sir is one of the most chilled out co-stars. He kept cracking jokes and was singing in between the shots, which made things pretty easy for me. I never felt I needed to behave in a certain way because I was working with such a big star.

F1: Brad Pitt shares valuable advice for young actors struggling with Superhero film expectations: "Caught up in pressure"
Right now, Brad Pitt is taking pleasure in the roaring response to his recently released film, F1. The Hollywood star said he likes to see up-and-coming actors make it in the business during the promotional tour for his film. Brad expressed his worry for the next generation, even though he did talk about how much he loved them. The Formula racer disclosed in a podcast that young Hollywood actors are "caught up" in the pressure to star in superhero films. However, he also offered the actors some helpful advice. Advice from Brad Pitt for aspiring Hollywood actors Brad urged the young actors on the New Heights podcast to ignore the pressure, which was not present when he first started out. "I like watching what the new generation is coming in with. I like to see what they are up against and the way they negotiate and work their way through it. They enjoy it more," he remarked. "We were more uptight, and it had to be about acting… like, you didn't sell out, you didn't sell out. But now it's like, 'We can be artists in many different arenas, so let's do it and let's enjoy it.' But they also get caught up in 'you have to have a franchise' or 'have to have a superhero.' But I keep saying, 'Don't! Don't! They'll die'," the Formula One star added. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Free P2,000 GCash eGift UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo Brad made a brief appearance in Deadpool 2, for those who are unaware.

How to unlock Skeleton in Death Stranding 2
Image via: Kojima Productions In Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, Sam Porter Bridges once again makes the journey across the hauntingly beautiful and dangerous terrain. This time, he's not doing it solo—or at least, not without some hard-core machinery assistance. Skeletons-exoskeleton suits-are some of the most precious weapons in Sam's arsenal. The Battle Skeleton Your first exoskeleton is the Battle Skeleton, and that's exactly what you'd expect – a combat-centric slice of kit that transforms Sam into a frontline bruiser. You'll crack it open in Order 10, when you link the Western Environmental Observatory to the Chiral Network. When activated, this skeleton enhances Sam's stamina, makes him faster, and most critically, enables you to carry more equipment all while delivering decent damage resistance. In the more combat-heavy sequel, that last bit is a life saver. Upgrades are linked to your relationship with the Observatory, so the better your relationship, the better your skeleton. Tip : Pre-ordering players or deluxe edition buyers will receive exclusive Silver or Gold variants that beautifies and potentially increases durability. How to Equip a Skeleton in Death Stranding 2 On the Beach The Boost Skeleton Trying to outrun BTs, MULEs or just the rain itself? Enter the Boost Skeleton, a battery powered engineered for one thing ,speed and momentum. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với sàn môi giới tin cậy IC Markets Tìm hiểu thêm Undo It opens up on Order 21, when you finish the delivery associated with The Dowser, a prepper unlocked by the main story. This exoskeleton reintroduces the fan-favorite speed-based mechanics from the original game, and it's particularly helpful whenever Sam has to traverse ground quickly. In combat, linking it with jump strikes transforms Sam into a man-missile. Tip : Boost Skeletons suck battery quickly, combine it with mobile generators or location-based recharge nodes. The Bokka Skeleton Don't let the poetic moniker fool you, the Bokka Skeleton is for gnarly terrain. This skeleton doesn't come around until much later, Order 30, and is unlocked by bonding with East Fort Knot. Built for elevation and rough trails, this is the frame you'll count on when the route goes alpine and ruthless. Unlike the rest, it's not associated with that same prepper Bokka (weird, right?). Instead, it's a story unlock that indicates you're entering the most challenging terrains to date. Tip : Without the Bokka Skeleton, you'll exhaust your stamina quicker, stumble over rocks, and risk hurting your load or worse. Don't MISS These INSANE Upgrades & Unlocks In Death Stranding 2! | Death Stranding 2 Tips Tips and Tricks Each skeleton in Death Stranding 2 is purpose-designed, and knowing when to swap them out can be the difference between success and failure. Going into battle? Battle On. Need to do a timed delivery across flatlands? Boost is your pal. Confronting snowy summits and jagged ridges? Don't step out without the Bokka. As you forge stronger bonds with facilities and preppers, you'll unlock higher-tier variations of each skeleton. These additions tend to make things more rugged, less power hungry, and enhance fundamental attributes such as speed or load. Skeletons aren't just wearable updates, they're survival tools in a game that keeps pushing how you navigate the world. Each type complements a different playstyle or mission need, and unlocking them at just the right moment makes your path as Sam not just manageable. It is empowering. Whether you're striding into battle, running across chiral wastelands, or scaling a snowy cliff, the right skeleton could wonder-carry you home.

The ultra-luxurious wedding of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez had A-list attendees- from the Kardashians, Oprah Winfrey and Leonardo DiCaprio. The three-day affair looked to be dripping in wealth, reports now claim that it was merely for the spectacle.

Jeff Bezos-Lauren Sanchez 's wedding is now facing flak and is drawing accusations with some labelling it as 'cheap'. Many rumours from inside the guest list suggest that behind the Instagram-perfect images was an event many found poorly planned and surprisingly 'cheap'. With one of the world's most enchanting cities as the backdrop, the three-day affair was dubbed the 'Wedding of the Century". The cost of breakfast alone was 1,000 euros per head (Rs 1 lakh and above). Bezos and Sanchez stayed at the Aman hotel, a luxury 16th-century palazzo on the Grand Canal with a view of the Rialto bridge. Live Events According to a report in The Daily Mail, a source indicated that the experience for many guests was far from luxurious. Many media outlets also questioned the apparent contradiction between his climate activism and his presence at a lavish event possibly involving private jet travel. Sanchez's dress to the choice of carpet at the ceremony is also being scrutinised, with the couple mocked for walking along an 'industrial grey hellscape' after exchanging vows.

'What people won't know from the pictures is how exhausting and full-on it was for the guests. The heat didn't help but people were forever needing to get around Venice, which means by boat, and that was a hassle and took ages, and there were a lot of people who all needed to get to the same place at the same time. People were complaining about being completely tired by the time of the wedding day, never mind the day after,' a source was quoted as saying by The Daily Mail. Entertainment journalist Rob Shuter also reported that the guests at the wedding were 'unimpressed" by the gift bags they had received, saying they felt like 'corporate retreat" merchandise. One guest seemingly believed 'it was a gag" that Sanchez handed out goodie bags with black open-toe Amazon slides in them. 'ShuterScoop can exclusively reveal that guests at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's lavish three-day Venetian wedding were quietly asked to provide personal credit cards at check-in — all to cover their own mini bar charges.' While much of the attention focused on Sanchez's wedding dress, others were left baffled by the grey carpet, which was dubbed 'industrial'. 'I need to know why Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez chose to get married on a grey office carpet," another person said. ALSO READ: Diogo Jota death: Liverpool star's last Instagram post will leave you heartbroken as footballer killed in tragic crash Social media users speculated that the carpet choice could even have been a nod to Bezows's early days at Amazon.

Protests before wedding Several Venetian organisations, anti-cruise ship campaigners and university groups protested under the banner 'No Space for Bezos' amid complaints he has 'taken over the city.'

It showed an image of Bezos face and the slogan: 'If you can rent Venice for your wedding then you can pay more tax'.
