Son of Sardaar 2's Roshni Walia Reveals Why Her Mother Was Often ‘Cursed' By Relatives
Roshni Walia revealed about her parents' divorce and that she doesn't have any true relatives.
Television sensation Roshni Walia rose to fame with her role as Ajabde Punwar in Bharat Ka Veer Putra – Maharana Pratap. Having started her acting journey at a young age, Roshni has been a familiar face on Indian television for years. Now after years of hard work, she is all set to make her big screen debut with Son of Sardaar 2. Directed by Vijay Kumar Arora, the upcoming Bollywood film features Roshni alongside industry heavyweights Ajay Devgn and Mrunal Thakur.
Ahead of her film's release on silver screens, the actress sat for a conversation with a media portal, where she opened up about her personal life like never before. During the chat, she revealed her parents' separation and that she doesn't have any relatives.
While speaking to Hauterrfly, Roshni Walia was asked about her father. She disclosed, 'My parents are divorced. They don't live together. They are not into each other's lives. Unki apni family hai (He has his own family). I am very happy and respectful. They enjoy."
Showering praise at her mother, Roshni went on to say that her mother has been there for her through tough times, and she is her only family. 'Mera toh yahi kehna hai ki mere bure waqt mai sabse zyada meri maa ne sath diya hai aur unka sath humne diya hai. Yahi humari family hai. (I want to just say that during my tough days my mother supported me the most, and we stood by her. This is my family," she said.
Roshni Walia On Her Relatives
Revealing how her mother's friends and her friends are like family to her, the Maharana Pratap actress added, 'I feel kabhi kabhi it's not the blood relation that matters. Kabhi kabhi aapke rishte organically bhi ban sakte hai. Aur voh bohot ache rishte ho sakte hai. Zaruri nahi hai voh aapke khoon ka hi koi ho. Sometimes people just come like angels, and then they are in your life (I feel sometimes it's not the blood relations that matter. Sometimes your relationships grow organically, and those can be good relationships. It is not important that it should be a blood relationship)."
'We don't have any relatives. Humara ek bhi relative hamara sagga nahi raha hai (None of our relatives have been true to us)," Roshni revealed.
She went on to say that her relatives 'mocked' her mother for coming to Mumbai and 'cursed' her that they would not be able to thrive there. However, Roshni stated that her mother made that big decision, and they are the happiest now.
Roshni Walia's Upcoming Movie
The television star will star in Vijay Kumar Arora's directorial Son of Sardaar 2. The film is a spiritual sequel to Ajay Devgn's 2012 hit film of the same name. In the comedy franchise, the actor will be seen reprising his role as Jaswinder 'Jassi" Singh Randhawa. Alongside Ajay, the film also brings together Mrunal Thakur, Sanjay Mishra, Ravi Kishan and debutant Roshni Walia in other important roles. Buckle up, as the film is all set to tickle the funny bones on July 25.

RRU helps set tune in martial music's Indian homecoming
1 2 3 Ahmedabad: The next time you see the armed forces on a parade ground, chances are high that you might hear 'Kadam Kadam Badhaye Ja,' the anthem of the Indian National Army, instead of 'Colonel Bogey March' from 1914. Marking a cultural shift, the armed forces bands in 2022 embraced 'Aye Mere Watan Ke Logo' during the Beating Retreat ceremony at Kartavya Path instead of the traditional 'Abide with Me'. Aiming to take the initiative further is the newly inaugurated School of NCC and Police Martial Music Band (SNPMMB) at Rashtriya Raksha University (RRU). At the RRU school, officials aim to train the state police and central armed police forces (CAPFs) in newly created Indian tunes and compose new ones to 'Indianize martial music. ' This is the first such school in a university setting in the country. Until now, bands in uniformed services were traditionally trained at special colleges and training schools. Senior RRU officials say the inspiration is Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision to make the music of India 'not merely entertainment, but a vehicle for expression, connection, and identity'. The initiatives started in 2016 with the use of Indian tunes on major occasions, they added. Major (Retd) Ashok Kumar, principal of the school and former director of music at the Joint Services Training Institute, AEC Training College & Centre, Pachmarhi — which trains musicians for the armed forces — says that military bands are traditionally taught tunes that have been part of military tradition for over a century. "We have over 200 such tunes which are used for different functions and ceremonies. In the past decade or so, Indian experts have been creating several notations and tunes that are rooted in our culture. Our aim would be to both create new tunes for the bands of CAPF and police forces and to teach the newly created Indian tunes to these bands," says Major Kumar. Some examples of such tunes include 'Veer Bharat' and 'Amar Senani', composed by Indian military musicians. These are now played regularly at various state and armed forces events. 'INS Vikrant,' 'Veer Bharat,' 'Desh Pukare,' 'Vayu Shakti,' 'Hindustan,' and 'Priyadarshini' are some more examples that reflect a rich Indian voice. Renjith G, senior instructor at SNPMMB, says the school is attempting to go a step further and create Indian raga and taal-based music in a global musical language. "Our initiative is to create original Indian tunes rooted in the country's rich musical heritage and legacy," he adds. Dr Gaurav Singh Kushwah, in-charge director of the school, calls Indianizing martial music tradition in India a major initiative. "Our aim is to teach Indian tunes primarily to CAPF and state police bands. We aim to provide trained musicians to security forces who will learn the Indian tunes and notations," he says. The first batch of 40 musicians from Rajasthan Police Central Band is already being trained at the university. RRU officials say that the courses are designed both for in-service musicians and aspiring candidates at multiple levels – from diploma to PhD. Students will be taught Indian and Western musical systems, orchestration, band drill protocols, ceremonial etiquette, and theoretical training. The first initiative for the overhaul will be the formation of the National Music Classification Forum that will attempt to find Indian alternatives for Western bugle calls like Reveille, Last Post, and Retreat.

Anupam Kher makes big statement on Operation Sindoor hero Colonel Sofia Qureshi, says, ‘Presented her…'
After the Pahalgam attack shook the nation, the Indian Army launched Operation Sindoor, targeting and destroying several terrorist bases across the border. Amid the operation, one face stood out—not from the battlefield, but the briefing room. Colonel Sophia Qureshi, a high-ranking officer in the Indian Army's Corps of Signals, led media briefings, keeping the nation informed and composed during the tense period. Who is Colonel Sophia Qureshi? Sophia isn't just another officer in uniform. She made history as the first Indian woman to lead a military contingent at an international exercise. With clarity, calmness, and courage, she became the Army's voice after the Pahalgam attack. Her presence wasn't just a performance—it was reassurance. Anupam Kher meets Sophia Qureshi Veteran actor Anupam Kher, who is currently promoting his new film Tanvi the Great, recently met Colonel Sophia and shared their interaction on Instagram. In the photo, he's seen gifting her his book. His caption read, 'OPERATION SINDOOR: I was extremely HAPPY and deeply HONOURED to meet Col. #sofiyaqureshi recently and present her my fourth #SelfHelp book #DifferentButNoLess! She epitomises the grace, valour, dignity and bravery of #IndianArmy. Thank you Col. Qureshi for your warmth and appreciation! Jai Hind! #Proud' View this post on Instagram A post shared by Anupam Kher (@anupampkher) The post has since gone viral, with fans calling the moment 'real patriotism'. What's 'Tanvi the Great' and how is it connected? Kher's film, Tanvi the Great, which tells the story of a young girl fighting against all odds to chase her dreams, has just been granted tax-free status in Delhi, following its earlier declaration as tax-free in Madhya Pradesh. Sharing the update, Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta wrote on social platform X, ' I am pleased to share that the Delhi Government has declared the film 'Tanvi the Great' tax-free in the state. With an impactful narrative of inclusion, the film is an inspiring story of a young, 'special' girl-Tanvi, who is determined to achieve her dreams against all odds. Tanvi's story is emotional and inspirational. We are committed to promoting films that strengthen the spirit of Rashtra Seva, ignites patriotism, and awakens the conscience of the nation. Best wishes to the entire team of the film. @AnupamPKher' I am pleased to share that the Delhi Government has declared the film 'Tanvi the Great' tax-free in the state.

Sometimes it's in uniform, other times in the cinema. But both spark something real: pride, purpose, and power.
