Remember Aarti aka Priya Gill from Sirf Tum? Here's how she looks now, what is she doing?

If you grew up in the 90s, you must have heard and hummed this popular song many times: ' Pehli pehli baar mohabbat ki hai, kuch na samajh mein aaye main kya karun?' The actress featured in the song is Priya Gill. She became an overnight star after playing the role of Aarti in the 1999 film Sirf Tum . Both the film and its songs were widely appreciated. After the success of Sirf Tum, it seemed Priya Gill was on her way to becoming a major Bollywood heroine – but soon after, she suddenly disappeared from the glamorous world. Priya Gill was known for her beauty and in 1995, she participated in Femina Miss India, winning the title of Femina Miss India International. She also went on to represent India at the Miss International pageant. Following that, she pursued a career in Bollywood. Priya Gill made her film debut in 1996 with Tere Mere Sapne, opposite Chandrachur Singh. After that, she was offered Sirf Tum . In this 1999 film, she starred alongside Sanjay Kapoor, with Salman Khan and Sushmita Sen appearing in cameo roles. The film was a major success and earned Priya Gill the title of the 'Sirf Tum girl.' Audiences appreciated her simple and graceful on-screen presence. After this film, she was cast opposite Shah Rukh Khan in the film Josh. In this film, SRK and Aishwarya played the roles of brother and sister. Josh was also a hit, but Priya Gill's career slowly started going downhill. Priya started getting side roles instead of lead roles. She also worked in a Bhojpuri film and later moved away from the film world. The film Bhairavi, released in 2006, was Priya Gill's last film. Where is Priya Gill Now? Priya Gill got married and settled in Denmark, away from showbiz and is enjoying her married life. She is also not active on social media. .

Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Suzanne Dolan pleaded guilty at Glasgow Sheriff Court to wilfully neglecting the boy Credit: PA:Press Association The boy was in the kitchen by himself while Dolan spoke to a delivery driver. She initially claimed that the boy - who suffered a fractured skull and bleed to the brain - had fallen from a trampoline. The child also suffered a fractured leg following a later incident after he fell downstairs when left alone again. Dolan pleaded guilty at Glasgow Sheriff Court to a charge of wilfully neglecting the boy. Sheriff Owen Mullan today ordered Dolan to do 210 hours of unpaid work and put her under supervision for two years. Dolan was also tagged for three months, keeping her indoors between 7pm and 7am. It is clear the offences had life changing consequences. She deeply regrets what happened Ian McCarthy The sheriff said: 'This matter meets the custodial threshold - it is a serious matter. 'I am just persuaded to avoid a custodial sentence here. 'There is nothing I can usefully add to explain or comment on the tragedy of what happened in this case. 'I take it as genuine from you that you live with the consequences for that and have shown remorse.' Ex-Army soldier, 19, arrested over 'ISIS plot' at US military base after 'stockpiling armor-piercing bullets and bombs' The court heard that Dolan's neighbour first spotted the boy lying on the concrete, believing that he was sleeping. The neighbour shouted on Dolan, who was speaking to the delivery driver. Dolan said to her neighbour: "He can't be outside." Prosecutor Kyle Dalziel said: "Dolan ran down from the front door of the first-floor flat to the outside. "The boy was unresponsive, lying on concrete in the garden under the kitchen window which was open. "The boy's shoes were found scattered on the ground. He was lying in a pool of blood and sick. The blood was coming from an injury to his head." Dolan took the boy inside - he was conscious but walking with a limp. The boy was unresponsive, lying on concrete in the garden under the kitchen window which was open... He was lying in a pool of blood and sick Kyle Dalziel A 999 call was made when Dolan claimed that the boy had fell from a trampoline when "he wasn't looking." Dolan told the truth the next day, and that the fall had occurred when she spoke to the delivery driver. The boy was treated at hospital meantime for a "significant head injury." The boy suffered a fractured skull, a blood clot as well as a swollen and bleeding brain. As a result, the boy walks with a limp, drags his feet and has vision impairment in his right eye. Dolan later installed baby gates at the top of her stairs and the third stair from the bottom. There is nothing I can usefully add to explain or comment on the tragedy of what happened in this case Sheriff Owen Mullan On March 3 2021, Dolan did not lock one of the gates when she was getting washing. Mr Dalziel said: "Dolan observed the boy bumping down four or five steps before the gate and he cried." Later that day, Dolan went to the toilet when she heard the boy cry again. Mr Dalziel said: "She thought she heard a thud but not a loud thud and thought the boy had fallen from the third step before the gate." Dolan picked the boy up to dress him and noted that his leg was in pain as he screamed. She took him to hospital where he was found to have suffered a fracture to his leg. The boy was then put in a leg cast. Ian McCarthy, defending, told the sentencing: 'It is clear the offences had life changing consequences. 'She deeply regrets what happened here and continues to show remorse.'

Woman held over death of man who was locked out naked on balcony

A woman in Japan was arrested for allegedly locking her naked partner on their balcony for the night, leading to his death from the cold, police said Friday. The 54-year-old was arrested on charges of assault and lethal confinement, police in southern Japan's Nagasaki region told the AFP news agency. In February 2022, the woman "ordered the victim to get out on a balcony while he was naked, and confined him there," local official Masafumi Tanigawa said. The next day police rushed to the scene after an emergency call, and the 49-year-old was found "nearly dead" in a room, Tanigawa said, adding he later died of hypothermia. The temperature that night dropped to a low of 3.7 Celsius (38.66 Fahrenheit), the Mainichi daily reported. The woman had earlier attacked her partner, who was her common-law husband, with a knife, leaving him with nose injuries that took two weeks to heal. An autopsy revealed a cut wound on the man's nose, and police are investigating the possibility that the man was a victim of daily domestic violence, the Mainichi reported. The woman denies the charges, telling police that "I've done nothing," Tanigawa quoted her as saying. Police did not say why it had taken so long to formally charge her. Last year, about one in four spouses in Japan reported experiencing physical abuse from their partners, the Japan Times reported, citing government statistics. Among those who said they were physically abused by their spouses, 12.6% reported that they felt that their lives were in danger, the survey showed.
