A while ago, Harshaali, who rose to fame with her character of Munni in Salman Khan-starrer Bajrangi Bhaijaan, expressed her excitement about her film 'Akhanda 2' with Nandamuri Balakrishna.
"Ek khamoshi thi jo sab kuch keh gayi,Ek muskaan thi jo dil mein reh gayi. Chhoti si Munni thi, par yaadon mein badi ban gayi. Aaj phir ek kahaani lekar aayi hoon, Is baar lafzon ke saath, ek nayi roshni ban kar chhayi hoon Munni was not just a character; she was a feeling, a memory, a heartbeat -something that stayed with you, and with me," she posted on Instagram.
"After all these years, I've held on to your love -patiently, silently, and with a heart full of gratitude. While you were remembering Munni, I was preparing -learning, growing, and becoming so that one day, when I return, I return not just as that little girl, but as someone ready to feel everything again on screen, with you," Harshaali expressed.
She also opened up about her character 'Janani' that she portrays in the film.
"And now, I'm finally ready to share her with you Meet JANANI - a new story, a new emotion, a new chapter of me She laughs, she dreams, she speaks from the heart, and I've poured my soul into every scene Iss baar bhi mujhe aapka pyaar chahiye -wahi ashirvaad, wahi taaliyon ki goonj, wahi aankhon ka pyaar, mere liye wahi jazbaat From Munni's silence to JANANI 's voice, this isn't just my return-It's ours," she concluded.
'Akhanda 2' will be out in theatres on September 25.

It follows four different love stories of couples--young, old, and middle-aged--living in a metro and serves as the spiritual sequel to Anurag Basu's 2007 film Life in a... Metro.

We were younger back then, so the story was different. And I feel lucky to work with Mr. Pankaj Tripathi." "It was a lot of fun. Actually, I wasn't sure what to expect because, even though both of us have been working for so long, we hadn't worked together before. But he is very popular, and I've seen his work--I like it a lot. So, I was happy to be working with him. On the first day, I think we were both a little shy and formal. Anurag always says this very funnily: 'On the first day, we were both a little shy, a little formal. Mr. Pankaj used to say "Namaste" and all that. I'm also a bit like that--kind of old-fashioned. But we quickly became comfortable with each other," she added. The movie will be released in theatres this Friday.

Bollywood actress Poonam Dhillon recently spoke about her time working with the late Rishi Kapoor . Poonam recalled how Neetu gradually stepped back from her acting career following her marriage to Rishi Kapoor. Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh were among the most adored on-screen pairs during the 1970s and 80s. After their marriage, Neetu decided to distance herself from the limelight. Her final film before taking a break from the industry was Ganga Meri Maa in 1983. Poonam Dhillon about Neetu and Rishi Kapoor's marriage In a recent conversation with ANI, Poonam Dhillon shared her experiences from those days, mentioning that by the time she entered the industry, Neetu had already taken a step back. "They had just got married when I joined the industry. Neetu had more or less given up acting. I attended a wedding and had just entered films, but I didn't witness their romance, as I wasn't part of the industry at that time. I saw them later during Doosra Aadmi, because it was a Yash Chopra film with Rakhee. I attended one or two shootings at Yash ji's house."
