'Want diet food in morning and drugs at night': Famous Bollywood producer spills dark secrets about actors
In a no-holds-barred interview, veteran producer and former CBFC chief Pahlaj Nihalani has sparked controversy by calling out the extravagant and, at times, toxic culture brewing in Bollywood today. Speaking on the Learn From The Legend podcast, Nihalani didn't mince words as he slammed the new-age celebrity lifestyle—from bloated entourage bills to the persistent drug culture lurking behind glamorous facades. He pointed out that where earlier one person was sufficient, actors today show up with teams of ten. Even newcomers insist on having their own make-up artist, hairdresser, someone to hold their mirror, and a personal fitness trainer—all paid for by the producer. He also criticised the demand for six separate vanity vans for things like working out, cooking, and holding meetings, calling it excessive and unnecessary. The producer also alleged that many actors today lead double lives—demanding clean, diet-specific meals during the day while indulging in substance use by night. He claimed that stars often submit inflated bills for basic services, with make-up expenses alone running into lakhs. When asked if drug culture still persists in the film industry, he responded without hesitation, stating that it's very much present and, in some cases, clearly visible in the behaviour and appearance of certain actors. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 한 세션이 몇 시간으로 바뀔 수 있습니다. 플레이하고 그 이유를 확인하세요 Raid: Shadow Legends 더 알아보기 Undo Pahlaj Nihalani about Akshay Kumar Pahlaj Nihalani recently shared that during Talaash: The Hunt Begins... (2003), Akshay Kumar insisted on Kareena Kapoor as the female lead. Nihalani noted this was the first time in his career an actor made such a demand, overriding the traditional producer-director casting approach. He revealed that today, actors often control major decisions—from the cast to the director and crew. He also hinted at age-gap casting, suggesting older actors prefer younger heroines to appear younger on screen. Talaash, made on a Rs 22 crore budget, flopped at the box office upon its release. About Pahlaj Nihalani Pahlaj Nihalani is an Indian film producer and former chairman of the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). He served as president of the Association of Pictures and TV Programme Producers for 29 years until 2009. Nihalani made his production debut with Haathkadi in 1982 and later launched actors like Govinda (Ilzaam, 1986) and Chunky Pandey (Aag Hi Aag, 1987). He produced several popular films including Shola Aur Shabnam and Aankhen. He made his directorial debut with Avatar in 2012 and last produced Rangeela Raja in 2019.

Meet man, an engineer, who is playing main role in India's most expensive film worth Rs 835 crore, his name is..., movie is...
Actors in India are renowned for wearing many hats, seamlessly juggling multiple roles both on and off screen. From R. Madhavan to Taapsee Pannu, many actors in the world of glitz and glamour were first engineers and then became stars. Today, we will discuss one such figure who pursued electrical engineering, worked in the real estate sector, and then gave it all up to become an actor. Now, this actor is all set to feature in a Rs 835 crore film. If you are wondering who this actor is, let us tell you that he is not from Bollywood, but the king of television. The actor in discussion is none other than Ravi Dubey. An actor known to be a jack of all trades, he is now poised to make headlines globally. Ravi Dubey is all set to reprise the character of Laxman in director Nitesh Tiwari's two-part film series Ramayana: Part 1 and 2. Ravi, who gained a massive breakthrough with serials like Saas Bina Sasural and later with Jamai Raja, is now gearing up to make it big in Bollywood with a film that reportedly has a budget of Rs 835 crore. Did You Know Ravi Was an Engineer by Profession? Yes, you read that right! Ravi did his electronics and telecommunications engineering at Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Technology, Mumbai. Since his father, Gyan Prakash Dubey, was a civil engineer, Ravi chose the same field as a backup plan. He began his career in modelling before making his television debut with Stree… Teri Kahaani (2006-2007). According to Wikipedia, Ravi also worked as a real estate agent. However, he knew his true calling was acting and hence started his journey in the same field. The actor later got married to co-star Sargun Mehta on December 7, 2013. The duo also own a film and television production company, Dreamiyata Entertainment. Since then, he never looked back. About Ramayana Nitesh Tiwari's Ramayana is all set to woo the audience. The movie stars Ranbir Kapoor in the role of Lord Ram, whereas Sai Pallavi will play the role of Goddess Sita. According to Hindustan Times, the film, produced on an extravagant scale, has exceeded the production budgets of Kalki 2898 AD (Rs 600 crore), as well as RRR and Adipurush (both Rs 550 crore).
