Shubhangi Atre shares how her parents sparked her love for music

'Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain' fame Shubhangi Atre opened up about her deep-rooted love for music. She revealed how it was inspired by her parents' passion for singing and soulful melodies. In an exclusive interview Atre recalled how music was an integral part of her home. She shared, 'Music has been a part of my life since childhood. I've grown up watching my mother sing while working in the kitchen. My father loves listening to ghazals, so they were always playing in our home. Even now, I start my mornings with mantras and end my nights with jazz or fusion music. Music is in my soul. Contributing to music has always been a dream, and this song is a small step toward that.' The TV actress, who recently featured in the music video 'Kaahe Saiyaan,' also revealed that her new song is not just a creative pursuit but a personal one. 'When I first heard the song, which is based on Raag Jog and has a touch of Karun Ras, I was deeply moved. It carries a certain pain and emotional depth, which inspired me to present it as a visual story. The moment I heard it, the visuals came to me instantly. I wanted to give the audience not just a song but a visual treat with a narrative.' Shubhangi has stepped into the world of production with her latest music release. Speaking about what inspired this move, she shared that it was driven by a heartfelt urge to contribute to the industry that played a significant role in shaping her journey. The 'Kasturi' actress mentioned, 'I've always wanted to contribute something meaningful to the industry that has given me so much. Acting roles come and go, but I kept wondering—what am I really giving back? This project is a humble attempt.'Shubhangi Atre is best known for her roles in shows like 'Kasautii Zindagii Kay,' 'Kasturi,' 'Do Hanson Ka Jodaa,' 'Chidiya Ghar,' and 'Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain!'

Japan Railway-affiliated Tokyo shopping centers issue warning over point card scam

By Casey Baseel, SoraNews24 For a while there, 'Everything lasts forever on the internet' looked like it was going to become common sense. However, as time has gone by, we've learned that that's not always true. Online permeance only extends so far as the constancy of server and domain maintenance, which brings us to a little problem involving East Japan Railway Company, or JR East. Like a lot of rail companies in Japan, JR has its fingers in a lot of non-train pies too. For example, if you've spent much time in Tokyo you might have spotted the Atre shopping centers in neighborhoods like Akihabara, Ueno, Shinagawa, and Ebisu. Filled with retail stores, sit-down restaurants, and takeaway food stands, Atre shopping centers are always attached to train stations, because Atre is owned and operated by JR East. Almost every shopping center in Japan has some kind of customer loyalty program, and Atre is no exception. Up until the end of February 2016, shoppers and diners could earn Atre Club points with each purchase and redeem them for gift certificates and other items through the service's website. Some Atre Cards, as the point cards were called, even had a QR code on the back that you could scan to access the site more easily. Atre Club has since been folded into JR East's broader JRE Point program, with all Atre Club points being transferred over. The old Atre Cards are still usable, too. Show it when making purchases at Atre, and the points will go right into your JRE Point total. JR and Atre have put out a warning, though, that while the old Atre Cards themselves are still good, using their QR codes could result in something very, very bad. Image: Atre Why? Because after JR shut down the Atre Club Point program, they also shuttered its website, and eventually abandoned control of its domain, Scanning the QR code on the back of the Atre Card, though, will still try to access it, which is a problem because the domain has since been acquired by scam artists, and the website is unsafe to use, presumably due to malware, phishing prompts, or other aspects targeting users' data privacy and financial security. The problem came to light last week and affects Atre Cards issued between October of 2013 and February of 2016. Atre put out a statement cautioning cardholders to not scan their QR codes or access reminding them that their loyalty program accounts are now managed through the JRE Point website. In a follow-up, Atre said that as of July 1 the scam site is no longer accessible, but continued avoidance of scanning the QR code or visiting is recommended. Source: Atre, J-Cast News via Yahoo!

Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain! actor Shubhangi Atre on losing ex-husband Piyush Poorey to alcohol addiction: ‘sab try kar liya tha maine'; ways to cope

Shubhangi Atre reflected on her divorce and eventually losing her ex-husband Piyush Poorey to alcohol addiction in April this year. 'No, not at all easy. 17 years are not less. I was fully invested. Sometimes, it happens that for your mental peace and well-being, and your daughter's well-being, we have to make that decision. Because, sab try kar liya tha maine. (I had tried everything). Addiction is such a thing…I am speaking from my heart and soul that I had tried everything. But it was beyond me. In fact, my daughter only told me that it's not healthy for us. You need to come out,' Atre said. Adding that she developed 'anxiety issues,'the Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain! actor said: 'I gave my 100 per cent to the relationship. I loved him. I don't think I can love anyone else that much. I was very young when I got married. So, it was very difficult to come out of the relationship. He passed away two months ago. Now, I will remember him for all the good things.' She also urged women to be not just be financially independent but emotionally, too. 'It is what I have learnt in the last 4-5 years. Sometimes, you are so invested in a relationship that it becomes draining. I really hope no one has to go through a separation. I believe in marriage, partnership, and companionship. It's a beautiful institution. But at the same time, if two people are not happy together, emotional independence is necessary. If you are wasted there, you can't focus anywhere else,' Atre told Bollywood Bubble. Taking a cue from her admission, let's understand how difficult such a decision is and how one can cope. Divorcing a partner after over 17 years is difficult, and when addiction is involved, the emotional toll can be too intense, concurred Dr Santosh Bangar, senior consultant psychiatrist, Gleneagles Hospitals, Parel, Mumbai. 'Living with someone struggling with substance abuse often means years of emotional neglect, financial instability, broken trust, and constant worry. Even after choosing to get a divorce, the decision is never without guilt, sadness, or fear of judgment. There's grief not just over the relationship, but also over what could have been if addiction hadn't taken over. Many feel torn between love, loyalty, and the need for self-preservation,' contended Dr Bangar. The trauma of witnessing a loved one's decline and feeling powerless to stop it can linger long after the marriage ends. 'Letting go of the hope for change and starting over can feel overwhelming and frustrating. But choosing peace, healing, and emotional safety is a courageous step,' said Dr Bangar. The expert also advised that therapy, support groups, and time can help people rebuild their lives after such an excruciating chapter.
