If you are a Shah Rukh Khan fan, then his film Swades must have made a special place in your heart. Directed by Ashutosh Gowariker, the movie featured Shah Rukh Khan in the lead, and opposite him was Gayatri Joshi. SRK as Mohan and Gayatri as Gita impressed the audience to their core. Though the movie did not meet commercial expectations, the audience hailed both actors' performances. Surprisingly, after receiving critically acclaimed remarks for her performance, Gayatri chose not to be a part of the Bollywood industry anymore. Swades marked her first and last movie.
Swades was released in 2004, and in 2005, Gayatri tied the knot with business tycoon Vikas Oberoi. After getting married, Gayatri decided to quit acting and focused on her family.
While Gayatri is known to many movie lovers, her husband Vikas Oberoi remains away from the limelight, even after marrying the former actress. Let's take a look at Vikas's achievements.
Born in 1969, Vikas is the son of Ranbir Oberoi, who was the founder of Oberoi Realty Ltd. Vikas grew up watching his father handle the real estate business, and he too aimed to follow in his footsteps from a young age. After completing his education, he joined his father in the business.
Vikas pursued his higher education at Jai Hind College in Mumbai and later earned a degree through the prestigious Owner/President Management Program at Harvard Business School.
As per media reports, in the 1990s, Vikas took over his father's business, and today he is the Chairman and Managing Director of Oberoi Realty Ltd. Vikas Oberoi's Whopping Net Worth
According to a report by Forbes, Vikas's net worth is USD 5.8 billion. Media reports claim that Vikas owns a luxurious home at 360 West Worli, Mumbai, where he lives with his wife and kids. The property is reportedly worth Rs 400 crore.

Yes, you read that right—the Kumar family has officially acquired the title of the richest Bollywood family, surpassing some of the biggest names in Bollywood. Who was Gulshan Kumar? Gulshan Kumar was born on 5 May 1951 in New Delhi. He was the son of a fruit juice seller in Daryaganj. Leaving studies after class ten, he helped in his family's small business and later developed a keen interest in music.

He is one of Bollywood's most prominent producers, having given many cinematic and musical gems. His uncle, Krishan Kumar, who is also an actor and co-owner of T-Series, helps manage the company and contributes significantly to the family's net worth. Who took over the T-series? Bhushan Kumar successfully took over the reins of T-Series after the tragic death of his father, Gulshan Kumar, and has since made a huge impact in the music and film industry by carrying forward his legacy. Bhushan Kumar is married to actress and filmmaker Divya Khosla Kumar, and the couple has a son named Ruhaan. Interestingly, according to reports, Divya owns only 0.45% of the T-Series company, while Bhushan Kumar's wealth is estimated to be around Rs 414 crore. Whom did Gulshan Kumar marry? Gulshan Kumar married Sudesh Kumari in 1975, and the couple had three children – Khushali Kumar, Bhushan Kumar and Tulsi Kumar. Earlier, there were reports of a separation between the couple.

Kaun Banega Crorepati Throwback: When late actor Dinesh Phadnis aka Fredericks tried to help CID team answer question worth Rs 6,40,000

Kaun Banega Crorepati has been one of the longest-running reality shows in India, enjoyed by all age groups. Hosted by megastar Amitabh Bachchan, the show has seen 16 successful seasons, and now the 17th season will be launched soon. Ahead of the release of the 17th season, let's revisit the time when CID actors Shivaji Satam, Dayanand Shetty and Aditya Srivastava graced the show as guests. During their presence, the CID team also sought help from their co-star and late actor Dinesh Phadnis aka Fredericks. When late actor Dinesh Phadnis tried to help CID team When Shivaji Satam aka ACP Pradyuman and Aditya Srivastava aka Abhijeet were sitting on the hot seat, Amitabh Bachchan asked them the 8th question worth Rs 6,40,000. The question was: According to the Indian epics, who among the following did not meet his death at the hands of another? A - Vidura B- Kumbhakarna C- Shravan Kumar D- Putana Correct Answer: Vidura As Satam and Srivastava were sceptical about the right answer, they decided to seek help from their friend and used a 'Phone a friend' lifeline and dialled Dinesh Phadnis aka Fredericks. Big B called Phadnis, but the latter assumed that Dayanand and Aditya were joking with him about being Amitabh Bachchan. The veteran actor informed Dinesh about ACP Pradyuman and Abhijeet being unable to answer the question. Dinesh had 30 seconds, and by the time Aditya explained the question, the time ended without Dinesh answering the question. Shivaji Satam and Aditya Srivastava reached the conclusion that option A- Vidura is the correct answer. The answer was right, and so the CID team won Rs 6,40,000. The episode ended with this question. Before Aditya joined Satam on the hot seat, Dayanand Shetty was seen sitting with the veteran actor and answering questions by Amitabh Bachchan. Like the CID team, several other celebrity guests were seen on the show playing the interesting quiz with Mr Bachchan. Speaking about the upcoming season, Kaun Banega Crorepati 17 is set to premiere from August 11 at 9 PM on Sony TV.

Saiyaara Box Office Collection Day 5: Ahaan Panday-Aneet Padda's film beats Aashiqui 2, crosses ₹150 crore worldwide

Saiyaara Box Office Collection Day 5: Ever since Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda's Bollywood debut film Saiyaara released, fans and critics have been comparing the film with Aashiqui 2. Interestingly, Aashiqui 2 is helmed by Mohit Suri, who is the director of Saiyaara as well. As per the latest update, Saiyaara, the YRF-backed film, has now surpassed the lifetime earnings of Aashiqui 2 worldwide. According to the early estimates of industry tracker Sacnilk, Saiyaara earned ₹ 18.88 crore on day 5. While it shows a dip in earnings, it is too early to predict the business as these are live data from the website based on morning, afternoon and evening shows. The final figure will be out after the night shows. The show is also running late night shows owing to its demand. The total business made by Saiyaara so far is ₹ 126.13 crore in India. The film recently wrapped up its first weekend after massive business at the ticket window. Considering the weekdays, the film has held strong, maintaining steady footfalls in theatres. On Tuesday, Saiyaara saw about 46.39% occupancy. The occupancy was as follows: Delhi NCR and Mumbai continue to top the chart with highest number of shows and footfalls. Besides the metro cities, tier 2 and tier 3 cities such as Pune, Jaipur, Lucknow and Chandigarh, among others also registered strong revenue. Meanwhile, at the international box office, Saiyaara has surpassed the lifetime business of Suri's Aashiqui 2. Aashiqui 2 starred Shraddha Kapoor and Aditya Roy Kapur. On Monday, Saiyaara raked in ₹ 151 crore as its Worldwide Collection. While its India Net Collection was ₹ 107.25 crore, its Overseas Collection was ₹ 23 crore on the same day. On the other hand, its India Gross Collection was ₹ 128 crore on day 4. The Ahaan Panday film is currently the fifth Hindi film to hit the ₹ 150 crore mark in 2025. However, the business made by the highest-grosser of this year is still far from Saiyaara's reach. So far, Saiyaara has also surpassed the lifetime collection of two Akshay Kumar's Kesari Chapter 2 ( ₹ 144 crore), which released earlier this year. Recently, Shraddha Kapoor watched Saiyaara in theatres and wrote on Instagram, "Saiyaara se Aashiqui ho gayi hai mujhe (I've fallen in love with Saiyaara).' Thanking her, Ahaan wrote back: "Working under you on Rock On 2, being assigned to fix your piano, the serendipity of assisting on a rock music film, to getting to be a part of one… I remember you taking out the time to speak to me for a few seconds, and your words weighing heavy on me.'
