YouTuber Purav Jha responds as Jasmin Bhasin calls Apoorva Mukhija ill-mannered
Jha further elaborated on how Mukhija's behaviour stood out on the show. "But I think in a show where everyone knows each other... it's not like Apoorva is out on the street yelling and abusing strangers. The environment there was already very toxic," he explained. "That's just her bold nature," he added.While defending Mukhija, the 23-year-old also acknowledged the importance of balance. "So you have to keep both sides on the same page. In my opinion, there needs to be a balance between the two," Jha stated.Bhasin, who was also a contestant on 'The Traitors', called the 23-year-old ill-mannered several times on the show. Mukhija, on the other hand, called her stupid. The duo never saw eye to eye in the show. While Mukhija formed a closer bond with Jha, Bhasin was seen bonding with social media influencer Uorfi Javed on the show. The finale of the reality show 'The Traitors' aired on 3rd July. The show concluded with Uorfi Javed and poker player Nikita Luther being announced as the winners.- Ends

Divya Agarwal Remembers Late YouTuber Danish Zehen, Says ‘Regret Not Being Able To See Him Outside'
Divya Agarwal recalls her bond with late YouTuber Danish Zehen from Ace of Space, saying she regrets not getting to meet him outside the reality show. Divya Agarwal is one of the most talked-about celebrities in the reality space. She gained recognition after appearing on Splitsvilla and rose to further fame with Ace of Space, a one-of-a-kind show where she was a co-contestant with the late YouTuber Danish Zehen. Now, in a recent interview, the actor-model opened up about what she will regret the most about the show. In conversation with Filmygyan, Divya shared, 'I will always have this regret that I couldn't see him outside that house, but we had some great times. It took me a while to realise what kind of a guy he was because we were in separate rooms. But jab dosti badhti gayi, I started liking him. He was really talented, and it was that time when YouTubers were doing meaningful things." Ace of Space contestant and popular face on YouTube, Danish Zehen, died in a tragic accident in 2018. Reportedly, the 21-year-old was returning from a wedding when the accident took place near Vashi, Navi Mumbai. Danish was quite popular on social media and had one million followers on Instagram. His sudden death left his fans and followers in deep shock. Meanwhile, Divya appears to be embracing a more balanced and reflective stage of life, as she is now married to businessman Apurva Padgaonkar. The couple tied the knot in February last year. Divya and Apurva had a traditional Marathi wedding ceremony in Mumbai. A few months ago, Divya and Apurva's divorce rumours surfaced on social media. However, reacting to these speculations, the actress clarified, 'I made no noise. I made no comments or stories. I deleted 2,500 posts. Yet the media chose to see and react only to my marriage. It's funny how people see and expect things out of me. I have always done something people never expected out of me. And what are they expecting now – the babies or divorce… none of it is happening (side-eyes emoji)." On the work front, the actress has acted in series like Cartel, Puncch Beat, Abhay, and Fuh Se Fantasy. She also started her own dance academy, Elevate Dance Institute.

Shaan R Grover says playing a red flag in Saiyaara was emotionally unsettling: 'I'm nothing like him...'
In the youthful romantic drama 'Saiyaara,' the actor Shaan R Grover plays the emotionally distant character Mahesh Iyer. He recently talked about how playing such a morally dubious character affected him off-screen. The actor acknowledged in an open interview that Mahesh's actions, particularly when he was around women, made him feel totally uncomfortable and actually disturbed him while filming. Shaan says Mahesh's toxic traits clashed with his own values In conversation with Filmygyan, Grover explained that stepping into Mahesh's shoes wasn't just creatively challenging, it also stirred discomfort on a personal level. While he didn't feel the need to prove that he's different from Mahesh, he said it was hard playing someone so emotionally negligent and detached. According to Shaan, portraying a character who ghosts his fiancée and walks away without explanation made him uneasy, especially knowing that some viewers might associate him with such behavior. He told Filmygyan that he hoped people would hate the character, as Mahesh deserved to be criticized for how he treated his partner but added that the possibility of being personally linked to that toxicity unsettled him during the shoot. About Saiyaara: heartbreak, redemption, and music Released in July 2025, 'Saiyaara' follows Krish Kapoor played by Ahaan Panday , a gifted but emotionally wounded musician, and Vaani Batra played by Aneet Padda, a journalist healing from the heartbreak of being abandoned by Mahesh Iyer just before their wedding. The movie is directed by Mohit Suri and backed by Yash Raj Films; the romantic drama explores how two broken people find healing and love in the middle of grief, guilt, and creative reinvention. Shaan's character acts as the impetus for Vaani's journey from betrayal to empowerment. The film's music, composed by Amaal Mallik and Rochak Kohli, has become a hit, with tracks like 'Barbaad,' 'Tum Ho Toh,' and the title song 'Saiyaara' resonating deeply across platforms. Audience reactions: hate that feels like praise In spite of the emotional challenge of the role, Shaan said he found validation in viewers' reactions. He's received messages from fans who told him they 'hated' Mahesh but added that their anger came from how convincingly he played the character.

When the interviewer happily quipped 'Saiyaara 2', Shaan said, "Joke kar raha hu." (I am joking). He further added, "Not that I am asking for it. Buy ya! If Mahesh is so loved, then maybe a second part will be made where they can show some flashback scenes of theirs." The interviewer then goes on to add that what if Mahesh comes back to take revenge on Vaani and Krrish? Grover cheekily replied, "Ya! Thoda aur bada villain banao na." (Make me a bigger villain.) Saiyaara's box-office collection Saiyaara has received a positive reception from the audience. Fans are appreciating Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's performances in the latest release, and its emotional storyline is packed with a melodious soundtrack. The musical romantic drama was released on July 18, 2025. As far as its box office performance is concerned, Saiyaara had an excellent opening on Friday. Mohit Suri's film is all set to cross the Rs 100 crore mark in just four days of its theatrical release.
