Fatima Sana Shaikh Recalls Her First Love: 'I Was Very Young And...'
Last Updated: Fatima also fondly recalled a birthday surprise from her then-partner, who had beautifully lined the path from the door to the room with flowers. Actress Fatima Sana Shaikh has opened up about a tender memory from her younger days, recalling her first love. Speaking to IANS during the interview of her film 'Aap Jaisa Koi," the 'Dangal' actress shared a sweet and nostalgic memory from her younger days. When asked whether she had ever pressed flowers in books or experienced such heartfelt moments, the actress smiled and said, '100 percent." Fatima also fondly recalled a birthday surprise from her then-partner, who had beautifully lined the path from the door to the room with flowers. Recalling the same, the actress shared, 'There were flowers everywhere, and around the cake, there were candles lit all over," she recalled. However, the surprise didn't go exactly as planned. By the time she arrived, most of the candles had melted away. We had to clean it all up later." Reflecting on that moment, Fatima said it was a special kind of love—simple and sincere. 'I was very young and didn't even have Facebook or Instagram back then." Fatima's co-star from 'Aap Jaisa Koi," R. Madhavan, also reflected on his early experiences with first love. He recalled a time when romance was sincere and carried a deep sense of lasting commitment. When asked if the story of the film brought back memories of his first love, the 'Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein' actor expressed, 'At that point in time, we used to run through a guilt," he said. 'If you held a girl's hand and she became your girlfriend, that meant you were going to marry her. That was the ultimate goal. There was never this idea of 'let's try and see where it goes'—no 'benching, orbiting, or whatever it's called now." 'When we fell in love, the imagination was always long-term. It was never about getting physical quickly. It was about making mixtapes, buying thoughtful gifts, and wooing the person properly," he added. Directed by Vivek Soni, 'Aap Jaisa Koi" marked Madhavan's first on-screen collaboration with Fatima. The film premiered on Netflix on July 11.

Bad news for Kapil Sharma, Sunil Grover, Krushna Abhishek, Kiku Sharda, Archana Puran Singh as 'The Great Indian Kapil Show'...
Kapil Sharma, who is known as the king of comedy, makes sure his audience gets a smile on their face. His show The Kapil Sharma Show dominated TV TRP charts for years. People wait for weekends to witness his episodes. He made his OTT debut with The Great Indian Kapil Show on Netflix. While his signature comedy format was expected to resonate well with the digital audience on Netflix, viewership has seen a noticeable decline by the time the third season was released. So far, five episodes of The Great Indian Kapil Show have been released in Season 3. What happened to The Great Indian Kapil Show? The third season of The Great Indian Kapil Show saw a new addition to the lineup – the return of the OG, Navjot Singh Sidhu, alongside Archana Puran Singh. Kapil Sharma, along with Sunil Grover, Krushna Abhishek, and Kiku Sharda, form the backbone of the show. Their comic timing and the characters they portray remain unmatched. The first three episodes of The Great Indian Kapil Show ranked in Netflix's global Top 10 non-English shows. The first episode was of Salman Khan, released on June 21. The second episode featured Metro In Dino cast, released on June 28. On July 8, the audience witnessed Indian cricketers Gambhir, Pant, Chahal and Sharma. However, the last two episodes have dropped out of the list, indicating that the initial momentum is slowing down. The premiere episode of Season 3, which featured Salman Khan as a guest, garnered 1.6 million views and 1.9 million viewing hours. Downfall of The Great Indian Kapil Show Netflix calculates views by dividing the total viewing hours by the runtime of the episode, which means the figures do not represent unique viewers. The second episode, which featured the cast of Metro In Dino, received a total of 2 million views in the first two weeks. However, this number combines views from both the first and second episodes. Netflix has not released individual viewership data for the second episode. In the third week, the episode featuring cricketers Gautam Gambhir, Yuzvendra Chahal, and Rishabh Pant saw a further drop in viewership. Netflix reported that the combined views of all three episodes had declined to 1.2 million. This downward trend continued, and the most recent two episodes have now completely disappeared from the platform's global charts. Despite the drop in audience numbers, The Great Indian Kapil Show remains one of the most popular shows on Netflix India. However, given the declining figures on the global charts, the creators and Netflix may consider revising their strategy to win back the original audience. ' Upcoming episodes will feature popular content creators such as Raj Shamani, Saurabh Dwivedi, Kamiya Jani, and Samdish Bhatia.

Nitesh Tiwari Spent 10 Years On Ramayana Script, Studied Yoga Shastra And Consulted Pandits: Report
Nitesh Tiwari spent a decade researching and scripting his epic Ramayana, featuring Ranbir Kapoor, Sai Pallavi and music by AR Rahman and Hans Zimmer. Nitesh Tiwari, known for films like Dangal and Chhichhore, has been quietly working for ten years on his epic retelling of the Ramayana. Every line, scene and dialogue has been meticulously crafted since 2015. According to a report in TOI, Tiwari and producer Namit Malhotra spent years studying the Vashisht Yoga Shastras and consulting with pandits to weave spiritual wisdom into a story that speaks to today. The idea is to make the emotional journey of Ram relatable while honouring its ancient roots. The cast is star-studded. Ranbir Kapoor takes on Lord Ram, Sai Pallavi plays Sita, Yash is Ravana, Ravi Dubey becomes Lakshman, and Sunny Deol portrays Hanuman. Supporting cast includes Amitabh Bachchan, Rakul Preet Singh, Kunal Kapoor, Lara Dutta, Arun Govil and Sheeba Chadha. Their vision was unveiled in a teaser that paired glimpses of Ranbir and Yash with a powerful score by Hans Zimmer and A.R. Rahman — marking what may be Indian cinema's most ambitious East-meets-West collaboration. Filming began only after the script felt ready. Tech rehearsals were held in Los Angeles in 2024, while elaborate sets—over a dozen of them—were built back in India. Many have now been dismantled to make way for post‑production. The film also brings in co-director Ravi Udyawar and VFX by DNEG, the Oscar‑winning studio behind Inception and Interstellar. Tiwari's Ramayana will arrive in two parts—first in Diwali 2026 and the second in Diwali 2027. The first instalment will explore Ram and Sita's early lives, their exile and Hanuman's entry. The second will focus on Ravana and the epic final battle. Ranbir Kapoor has locked Diwali 2026 and Diwali 2027 for Ramayana Part 1 and Ramayana Part 2. The film's first poster has been released along with the release date. Ranbir plays the role of Lord Ram. The two-part films are directed by Nitesh Tiwari. The release date was confirmed by Prime Focus Studios' Namit Malhotra. Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's. Please keep discussions respectful and constructive.
