I am done with remixes, says Tanishk Bagchi
Tanishk Bagchi, famed for remixes, is changing his focus. He wants to create original music now. His work in 'Sky Force' is generating buzz. Bagchi is receiving offers for solo projects. Filmmakers desire consistent sound. He has declined remix offers. Bagchi believes original music is returning. He is ready for this change in the industry. Bollywood composer-singer Tanishk Bagchi , known for chart-topping remixes like Mere Rashke Qamar, Dilbar, and The Humma Song, has decided to move away from recreations and focus on creating original music. With his solo soundtrack for the film Sky Force creating strong buzz, Bagchi is now focusing on more single-composer albums. 'After Sky Force, I'm getting more offers for solo projects. Filmmakers now want a consistent sound for the entire film, not just one song,' he told Mumbai Mirror. Bagchi, often labelled the 'remix king,' clarified that he never resisted the tag. 'Sachin-Jigar and Amit Trivedi did recreations too. My recreations helped films stand out. But I also made originals like Baarish (Half Girlfriend), Bolna'(Kapoor & Sons), and Ve Maahi (Kesari), and won awards for them. Now people take me seriously,' he said. Talking about how the industry's preference is now shifting, he said, 'I've rejected several remix offers in 2024–25. The last one I did was for Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2. Unless the storyline demands it, like a Hera Pheri sequel, I'm done with remixes. The industry is evolving. Original music is making a comeback. And I'm here for it.'

Meet singer, whose father used to sell samosas, started working from the age of 4, is now worth Rs 64 crore, name is… In the glitzy and glamorous world of Bollywood, last name often holds more importance than talent. Where a royal legacy becomes an easy gateway to opportunities, some rare celebrities come with no godfather, yet shine like they were born to be a part of this dazzling showbiz world. One such tale belongs to a star whose story is all about overcoming struggles and having persistence, and proving that sometimes the brightest stars emerge out of starting with the least. We are talking about the very talented singer Neha Kakkar. Neha was born in Rishikesh, Uttarakhand, in a lower-middle-class family. Her existence in this world started with a struggle and uncertainty. Being the third child in her family, her parents were skeptical about keeping her or aborting her because of financial constraints. In an interview, Neha herself openly spoke about her parents' poor condition that eventually made them second-guess her existence in the world, but since her mother was 8 weeks pregnant, the procedure came into the world to change her family's luck forever. Right from childhood, Neha saw hardships. The situation was so bad that her father had to sell samosas outside her sister Sonu Kakkar's school to make ends meet. He did a double shift, at night, he would sing jagrans to get enough money. Neha's love affair with singing also started with Jagran, she started singing there when she was barely four. . Her siblings, Sonu and Tony Kakkar, also played a big role in encouraging her dreams. She lived with her family in a one-room apartment with no comforts or luxuries. But besides limited resources, her dreams were never limited. Neha wanted to turn her singing passion into her full-time career, and she moved to Mumbai with a suitcase full of dreams. She participated in Indian Idol, but got eliminated early in the first season. The judges didn't find anything special in her voice at the time. But Neha had faith in herself, and that paid off quite well. She went on to sing hits like Second Hand Jawaani, London Thumakda, Dilbar, and Aankh Maarey, becoming one of India's most played voices. Her life took a full circle, she returned to Indian Idol — this time not as a contestant, but as a judge. Though she once lived in a cramped home, Neha now enjoys a luxurious life. As per the reports net worth is around ₹65 crore. She owns various assets, including an Audi Q7,a Mercedes-Benz GLS 350, a BMW, and a beautiful bungalow. While she had a brief falling out with her siblings, especially Sonu, the family has now reconciled. From singing in temples to ruling the stage, Neha Kakkar's journey shows that with enough passion and hard work, one can get what they want.

From her natural innocence to her strong performance, she soon rose to fame and left a remarkable mark on the audience, even with her career that was short-lived. The actress we are talking about is none other than Priya Gill. Priya entered the industry in the 90s. Her debut film was 'Tere Mere Sapne', but it was her films like 'Pehli Pehli Baar Mohabaat Ki Hai' and 'Dilbar' that rose her to fame. But besides her soft-spoken beauty and effortless performance that still resonated with the audience, there was one particular incident from her early days of her career that continues to be talked about. This popular incident was with the Badshah of Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan, and recalls it as her 'most embarrassing moment'.

I've always liked Shah Rukh. When I was studying, I used to watch him on television. He used to come in the serials, and then he became a huge star. But you know, you never think that one day you're going to be with this guy. And I was totally in awe of him.' Priya had a short film career trajectory, but despite that, she captured the hearts of many. Stepping away from the limelight, Priya said she is now living a peaceful life with her family in Denmark.
