Krishna Shroff reveals father Jackie Shroff's reaction to her participation in Choriyaan Chali Gaon; calls out fake reality show personas
Sharing how her family reacted to her participation in the show, Krishna shared, 'My dad was so excited when I shared that I was doing this show. He was more excited than he has ever been compared to other projects I have done. This is what he loves. He is excited for me to come back and be able to relate to it. My brother, on the other hand, asked me if I was sure I wanted to do this. He knows the type of person I am. If I decide to do something, I give my best at it. My mom is a bit nervous, not about the experience or concept, but she will miss me. We are best friends at the end of the day, and it's 2 and a half months away, so that's going to be a first.'

Krishna Shroff, who was last seen on Khatron Ke Khiladi 14, also explained why she took a year to choose another reality show. She shared, 'It has been a year since I participated in Khatron Ke Khiladi 14. Choosing to do these shows has shown me in a whole different light and the many layers I have in my personality. Right now, my audience is niche, because they don't fully know or understand who I am. It was a conscious decision to wait it out. With Khatron Ke Khiladi, it completely fit the brand. With this one, I don't think anything negative can come out of it.'

'A lot of reality formats that are out these days force you to become a character that you are truly not. That takes away from the reality aspect. People come with this pre-planned objective. For me, reality is reality,' Krishna added.
Lastly, sharing what she plans to do next, Krishna Shroff said, 'I enjoy doing this, but I am a business person, Tiger and I have co-founded an MMA Matrix Gym, which is doing quite well. We have signed 20 franchises pan-India now, including the dance academy that my brother has launched. Just spreading the message of fitness and propagating a healthy lifestyle for the youth is what drives me.'

Mimoh Chakraborty reveals parents Mithun Chakraborty and Yogeeta Bali's reaction to failure of his debut film Jimmy: 'I didn't step out of the house for a year...'
Mimoh Chakraborty reflects on the harsh criticism following his debut film Jimmy, detailing his initial anger and isolation. He emphasizes the crucial support from his family, which helped him cope and rebuild his career. Chakraborty also shares how landing a role in Haunted 3D became a turning point, despite industry skepticism, and highlights his resilience in the face of setbacks. Mimoh Chakraborty is no stranger to the harsh spotlight that comes with a film debut—especially when it doesn't go as planned. In a candid appearance on SCREEN's Dear Me, the actor reflected on the painful aftermath of his debut film Jimmy, which was met with sharp criticism. From feeling isolated and angry to finding healing through his family's unwavering support, Mimoh shared how the experience became a turning point in his life and career. Anger, backlash, and learning to cope Reflecting on the failure of Jimmy, Mimoh Chakraborty shared that hitting rock bottom helped him grow. He said the experience taught him resilience and the importance of earning success rather than expecting it. According to Mimoh, the setback helped him stop taking things personally or for granted and pushed him to rebuild with greater understanding and humility. Mimoh Chakraborty recalled the intense criticism he faced after the release of Jimmy, admitting he was initially filled with anger and disbelief. He had expected a mixed response at worst but was caught off guard by the harsh backlash. At the time, he struggled to understand the negativity, feeling the film wasn't as bad as it was made out to be. However, with time and perspective, Mimoh shared that he has moved on and no longer takes the criticism to heart—he can now read old reviews without being affected. Media scrutiny and the power of kindness Mimoh Chakraborty reflected on how overwhelming the media scrutiny was after Jimmy released, saying the constant criticism in newspapers and on television deeply affected him. At the time, he struggled to cope and felt a lot of anger. However, he shared that the experience taught him an important lesson—that kindness is the better response, especially in an environment where negativity spreads easily and quickly. How parents stood by him Mimoh Chakraborty opened up about how his family stood by him during the difficult phase following the failure of his debut film Jimmy. He shared that his parents, Mithun Chakraborty and Yogeeta Bali , offered unwavering support—not as industry veterans, but as caring parents. His siblings, too, created a positive and protective atmosphere at home, never making him feel like a disappointment. Mimoh revealed he didn't leave the house for nearly a year, choosing instead to retreat from the limelight and focus on self-healing. At just 25, he was grappling with intense self-criticism, and it was his family who gave him the space and strength to process the setback. Haunted 3D Mimoh Chakraborty recalled that after the failure of Jimmy, landing a role in Vikram Bhatt 's Haunted 3D came as a breakthrough—though not without challenges. After spending a year away from the spotlight, he created a fresh portfolio and approached several filmmakers. To his surprise, many received him warmly. However, he shared that Vikram Bhatt was advised by several people not to cast him, as a negative perception had already formed in the industry. Mimoh reflected on how, at the time, he didn't fully grasp the industry's commercial dynamics, admitting, 'If I'm not seen as a sellable actor, why would anyone want to work with me? Mimoh Chakraborty also revealed that he was replaced from several projects—even after reaching the set—but drew strength from remembering his father Mithun Chakraborty's own struggles in the industry. On the work front, Mimoh was last seen in Khakee: The Bengal Chapter. He will next appear in Haunted 2, slated for release in September this year.

Exclusive - Krishna Shroff on father Jackie and brother Tiger Shroff's reaction to her participation in Chhoriyan Chali Gaon; says 'Dad was so thrilled when he learned about this'
After showing her daredevil side in Khatron Ke Khiladi, Krishna Shroff is all set to take on a new challenge head on by participating in Chhoriyan Chali Gaon. In this upcoming reality show, eleven popular female celebrities will take on the challenge of living in a village for 60 days, without any modern comforts. Embracing a completely desi lifestyle, they will have to manage daily chores, traditions, and rural routines just like the locals. Before leaving for the show, Krishna spoke exclusively to Times of India TV and opened up about father Jackie and brother Tiger Shroff 's reaction to her participation in the show. Speaking about her family's reaction, Krishna shared, "My father was so thrilled when he learned about this, he was like, 'You have to do this.' All that he believes in, all that he promotes, this show represents that. I feel like by going through this process, I'll get to know him better. As long as I've got him, I'm invincible. He's my strength. I always carry him around in my heart and I want to make him proud." She added, "My brother was like, 'Are you sure you want to do this?' He knows how much I love my comfort. My mother is excited about the idea but anxious about the time away. We're very close. This distance is new to both of us, but I think we'll emerge from it stronger." Krishna Shroff revealed that signing up for "Chhoriyaan Chali Gao" wasn't all about leaving the comfort of her city life, it was about embracing discomfort for growth. "At a very young age, I've always been adventurous and competitive. Anything that challenges me really intrigues me. I think more than transitioning from urban to village life, what's actually going to be challenging is to be away from my family for such a long time. But I know I'll return stronger, more independent." When asked why she opted for another reality show after Khatron Ke Khiladi, Krishna revealed, "I enjoy the reality space. It's raw, real, and fun. Being yourself and getting paid for it? That's the dream. And these shows go to huge platforms. I get to engage with a loyal and loving audience. The reality of space allows me to be myself. I enjoy introducing people to who I am not a character, not a filtered me. Just Krishna. I enjoy it when people know me.
