Exclusive - Arjun Bijlani on Friendship's Day: Friendship is life's biggest blessing; my wife Neha is my forever best friend
As Friendship Day approaches on August 3, actor Arjun Bijlani reflects on the bonds that have shaped his life, from his earliest friendships to the relationships he has built in the entertainment industry. Known for his warm personality, the actor believes that true friends are life's biggest blessing. "I don't celebrate Friendship Day; I cherish friendship every day,," Arjun begins fondly. "My wife Neha is my forever best friend. She has been my biggest support system, my sounding board, and the person who understands me the most. No matter what, I can always count on her, and celebrating this day with her and my close friends makes it extra special." When asked about friendships in the entertainment industry, Arjun reflects on how rare yet meaningful they can be. "It is often said that it's tough to make friendships in the industry because everyone is busy with their own lives and schedules. I feel I have been really lucky. I think I am still friends with all the friends with whom I did my first show, and those bonds are very close to my heart. We grew together, faced struggles together, and cheered for each other's successes. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Elegant New Scooters For Seniors In 2024: The Prices May Surprise You Mobility Scooter | Search Ads Learn More Undo These are friendships built on trust and shared experiences, and that makes them last." Talking about his idea of a perfect time with friends, Arjun emphasizes that simplicity matters the most. 'For me, perfect moments with friends aren't about lavish parties or exotic trips. It's about genuine connection. Sometimes, it's sitting together over a cup of coffee, sharing stories, reliving old memories, or just having long conversations on the phone when we can't meet. Even the simplest moments become special when you're with the right people. ' The actor also holds his childhood friendships close to his heart. "Yes, I am still in touch with my childhood friends. Those friendships are unique because they are effortless and pure. They were formed before fame or success came into my life, and that makes them unshakable. Friendships today are equally special, but with busy schedules, they need a little more effort to nurture." As he reflects on the occasion, Arjun leaves everyone with a heartfelt message about the importance of friends. "Friendship is one of the most beautiful relationships in life. Whether it's an old friend, a new one, or that one person who feels like family, these bonds are what keep us grounded and happy. Never take them for granted," he concludes.

Last Updated: Ridhi Dogra initially began her career in dance with Shiamak Davar's institute and later worked as a co-producer at Zoom. In the wake of Shah Rukh Khan winning his first-ever National Film Award for Jawan, actress Ridhi Dogra who played his on-screen godmother shared a heartwarming reaction. Calling herself the 'fake mother" of the actor's Jawan character, Dogra said she felt 'real joy" for what she called a long-overdue moment in his career. 'The best news. The best film. This fake mother of her Jawan son is over the moon with real joy @iamsrk congratulations bigeesssttt love to you and @Atlee_dir and entire team !!!" Dogra wrote on X (formerly Twitter) as she reacted to SRK's win for Best Actor in a Leading Role at the 71st National Film Awards. Not Just An Actress, Also Arun Jaitley's Niece While her fans know her from her performances on screen, few may know that Dogra is also related to one of India's most prominent political figures: Arun Jaitley. Her paternal aunt, Sangeeta Jaitley, was married to the late BJP leader which makes Dogra his niece. 'I have grown up around him and buji, played innumerable times with Sonali and Rohan, in his office when he was a lawyer," she wrote in a post on Instagram. In her post, Dogra also highlighted Jaitley's intellect and his ability to make anyone feel heard. ''How's your work going beta? What's new in your industry these days?' He would always ask me. And I would always feel short of words because I knew I would not know a patch of what he did about my industry but still he had this great quality to make everyone he spoke to, feel important to his time," she said. Ridhi Dogra's Journey Dogra is a well-known name in television and OTT circles. After completing her education at Apeejay School, Sheikh Sarai, and graduating in Psychology from Kamala Nehru College, Dogra initially began her career in dance with Shiamak Davar's institute and later worked as a co-producer at Zoom. She gained popularity through roles in shows like Maryada: Lekin Kab Tak?, Savitri and Woh Apna Sa for which she even won Best Actor in a Negative Role at the 2017 Gold Awards. On the web, she was seen in The Married Woman, Asur and TVF Pitchers Season 2. In 2023, she made her Bollywood debut with Lakadbaggha followed by significant roles in Jawan and Salman Khan's Tiger 3. She also appeared in The Sabarmati Report where she shared screen space with Vikrant Massey and Raashii Khanna. On the personal front, Dogra was earlier married to actor Raqesh Bapat. The two parted ways in 2019. Rahul Gandhi Alleges Threat By Arun Jaitley As Dogra's connection with Jaitley comes into focus, a recent remark by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has also brought the late BJP leader back into political discourse. During a recent event in New Delhi, Gandhi claimed that the government sent Jaitley to 'threaten" him during the farm law protests in 2020. 'I remember when I was fighting the farm laws, Arun Jaitley ji was sent to me to threaten me. He told me 'if you carry on opposing the govt, fighting the farm laws, we will have to act against you." I looked at him and said 'I don't think you have an idea who you are talking to"," he said. Notably, the late BJP leader had passed away in August 2019, almost a year before the three controversial farm laws were brought in as ordinances in June 2020. Arun Jaitley's Legacy Jaitley was a towering figure in Indian politics. He served as Finance Minister from 2014 to 2019 and also briefly held the Defence portfolio. As a key member of the Modi government, Jaitley was involved in several major reforms including the implementation of GST, the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code and banking sector overhauls. Earlier, he had served as the Leader of the Opposition in the Rajya Sabha (2009–2014) and was the Minister for Law & Justice as well as Commerce & Industry under the Vajpayee government.
