Meet actress who allegedly dated star cricketer, later married into a royal family, sparked controversy due to..., she is...
While most heroines were told their careers ended with motherhood, Moon Moon Sen did the exact opposite. She married into royalty, had two daughters, and then made her big-screen debut at 30. With her first film Andar Baahar in 1984, she raised eyebrows. But it wasn't just her looks that made headlines; it was her confidence and bold choices, both onscreen and off. She later shared screen space with Madhuri Dixit in 100 Days and acted in a string of notable films like Kuch Toh Hai, Zakhmi Dil, Mohabbat Ki Kasam, and Sheesha opposite Mithun Chakraborty. Across Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada films, she appeared in over 60 films and 40+ TV shows. Where did she come from? Born into privilege, Moon Moon was the daughter of Bengali legend Suchitra Sen and granddaughter of a wealthy businessman, Adinath Sen. She was an English literature teacher in Kolkata and studied at Oxford before Bollywood found her. She married Bharat Dev Varma, from a royal lineage, in 1978. The couple has two daughters, Riya and Raima, both of whom tried their hand at acting. What about the Imran Khan connection? The buzz around Moon Moon wasn't limited to her films. Over the years, she was linked to several high-profile names, from Saif Ali Khan and Romu Sippy to Victor Banerjee. But the most talked-about was her alleged affair with former Pakistani cricketer and PM, Imran Khan. The media claimed the two dated and even shot for a magazine together, while Moon Moon was married. In a 2019 interview with PTI, she addressed it, 'I like spending time with Imran. If my husband doesn't have a problem, why should others?' She added that they were just friends. But the buzz never quite died down. Did she stop at films? Nope. Moon Moon later joined politics, becoming a member of Mamata Banerjee's Trinamool Congress and winning a Lok Sabha seat. Politics, like cinema, welcomed her late, but she made it count. Moon Moon Sen's story is one of charm, controversy, and breaking conventions. From teaching English to starring in 6 languages and facing political elections, her script was anything but ordinary.

Raveena Tandon Confirms Aranyak Season 2 ‘Is Not Happening'
Last Updated: Raveena Tandon confirms Aranyak season 2 isn't happening. Despite fan hopes, she says the script didn't meet expectations and the platform hasn't moved forward. Raveena Tandon made her OTT web series debut with the 2021 hit Aranyak. With the thriller becoming an instant success upon release, fans anticipated that the series would return for another season. However, it looks like fans will be disappointed, as Raveena Tandon has officially confirmed that there has been no development regarding Aranyak season two — and honestly, it's not on the cards. In a conversation with Hindustan Times, Raveena shared, 'It's not happening," and added, 'Now I can say it. Earlier, we all had hope. In fact, I think season two was written as well, but I am not sure what the platform has in mind. Every time they say, 'Oh my God, it was a great show and one of our highest-viewed shows immediately after COVID.' That was a role so close to my heart, and I loved playing that character. But I don't think they were able to crack a good script for season two. And then the expectations were so high, so they didn't want to spoil that." Raveena Tandon marked her digital debut with the Netflix original thriller series Aranyak, which premiered on December 10, 2021. Her portrayal of Kasturi Dogra, an investigating officer from Himachal Pradesh, won her rave reviews from critics and the audience alike. The show turned out to be one of the most popular series of that year and remained in Netflix's top ten list for several months. Written by Charudutt Acharya and directed by Vinay Waikul, the story is based on the famous Bengali novel of the same name authored by Bibhutibhushan Bandopadhyay. It revolves around political ploys, personal agendas, and the myth of a murderous entity that emerges as two mismatched hill station police officers navigate a web of suspects after a puzzling murder. The show also stars Parambrata Chatterjee and Ashutosh Rana. Raveena Tandon, one of the most charismatic actresses of the 1990s, has established a unique place in Indian cinema with her beauty, talent, and versatility. She made a remarkable debut in Bollywood with the 1991 film Patthar Ke Phool, opposite Salman Khan. The film was a commercial success and earned her the Filmfare Award for Lux New Face of the Year, quickly positioning her as a rising star in the industry.

Anusha Dandekar Says Suniel Shetty Ensured Her Safety During A Stunt On Hunter 2
Last Updated: Anusha Dandekar praised Suniel Shetty for ensuring safety during stunts on 'Hunter 2.' Shetty emphasized stronger safety protocols. 'Hunter Season 2' premiered on MX Player. Model-actress Anusha Dandekar has revealed how co-star Suniel Shetty went out of his way to ensure her safety during a stunt sequence on the sets of 'Hunter 2.' Speaking to IANS, she revealed working on 'Hunter 2" marked her first experience with action sequences, and she was entirely focused on getting her shot right. While she acknowledged the crew's support, she emphasized that it was Suniel who went above and beyond to ensure everyone's safety on set. Anusha shared, 'So, I will say that because it's my first action. And I don't know about the rest of the crew. I am not disregarding their care, because it's my first time. So, I was just focusing on my shot. But it was one man, Suniel Shetty, who was making sure everybody was safe in their shot. So, even if he had to push me against the wall, he made sure there was thermocol. And I was like, 'I'll be fine. No, there will be thermocol." 'He is so particular that he won't allow the scene to start before he checks all the weapons that are going to be used—like on somebody or me. He was doing it for everybody. And that, again, is a privilege—to have somebody who is so big in action still be concerned for everybody else," Dandekar added. When asked about the ongoing debate around safety during action sequences—especially in light of a recent incident in the South—Suniel Shetty agreed that safety should be a top priority on set. He acknowledged that action scenes demand meticulous planning and emphasized the need for stronger safety protocols. 'First of all, an industry must be looked at as an industry—it must get that status. We don't get the benefits that all the other industries get. It is very important to have insurance, and having training academies to teach action is also very important. Action directors should be licensed and certified, and there must be safety equipment. To hurry to shoot a scene, just because a film is near release – that is something that needs to change." The 'Dhadkan' actor went on to state, 'So, all these little things, if we are conscious of them, will make a lot of difference. I am very conscious when I do action. Not for my safety. For everyone's safety." Recently, Tamil stunt trainer Mohanraj tragically lost his life during the shoot of Pa Ranjith's film 'Vettuvam." The incident occurred while filming a car-overturning sequence featuring actor Arya. Helmed by Prince Dhiman and Alok Batra, 'Hunter Season 2" featured Suniel Shetty in the role of ACP Vikram. The series premiered for free on Amazon's MX Player on July 24. First Published: July 27, 2025, 15:40 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
