Meet superstar's son who failed as actor, gave zero hit films, left Bollywood after..., is now..., he is...
A notion that often floats among the audience is that if a child of an actor enters the Bollywood industry, they are destined to become a famous star. However, at times, the situation doesn't remain the same. Sometimes, a superstar's kid fails to become an actor. Today, we will talk about a star kid who failed to become a star despite his father being a legendary icon in the industry. This actor failed to become a star. Not just that, he gave back-to-back flops, which forced him to leave the industry. If you are wondering who we are talking about, then the person in discussion is Puru Raaj Kumar, son of legendary actor Raaj Kumar. Who is Raaj Kumar's Son? Puru Raaj Kumar made his grand Bollywood debut in Bal Bramhachari opposite Karisma Kapoor. The movie was expected to be a hit, but it failed at the box office. As a result, Puru didn't have work for four years. He then landed a negative role in the film Humara Dil Aapke Paas Hai, opposite Aishwarya Rai and Anil Kapoor, which went on to become a huge success. However, it became hard for Puru to establish himself as an actor. Some of the movies he has been a part of include Mission Kashmir, Khatron Ke Khiladi, Dushmani, LOC Kargil, Jaago, Umrao Jaan, and more. According to a report by Box Office India, Puru Raaj Kumar gave 10 back-to-back flop films. Following this, he decided to leave the industry. At the age of 23, Puru Raaj Kumar was arrested in a drunk driving case after he ran over eight people who were sleeping on a pavement in Mumbai. Out of these eight people, three were killed. What Does Puru Raaj Kumar Do Now? Puru Raaj Kumar featured in Action Jackson, which was released way back in 2014. Apart from Kumar, the movie also featured Ajay Devgn and Yami Gautam. The movie was a flop, and since then, Puru has been away from the limelight.

When Akshaye Khanna called Aishwarya Rai Bachchan ‘very beautiful': ‘Not just from the outside…'
Akshaye Khanna and Aishwarya Rai collaborated on three films, Aa Ab Laut Chale, Taal and Humara Dil Aapke Paas Hai. While in the first two films, the actors played each other's romantic interest, in the third film, Akshaye had a cameo. Their film Taal, directed by Subhash Ghai, was a blockbuster hit at the box office. Taal was among Aishwarya's first movies after she marked her debut in 1997. While Aishwarya went on to become a superstar in her later years, her co-star Akshaye Khanna had already predicted that she would become a 'very fine actress'. In an interview with Lehren Retro, Akshaye had predicted about 25 years ago, just before the release of their film Taal that Aishwarya will go on to become a 'very fine actress'. He said, 'I have worked with Aishwarya before in Aa Ab Laut Chale. Taal is my second one with her. She is very beautiful.' The actor added, 'Not just from the outside but also from the inside. She is always smiling and laughing. Always cheerful. I guess she is going to be a very fine actress. She has performed amazingly in Taal.'

In 2017, around the promotions of his film Ittefaq, Akshaye praised the actress when Karan Johar asked him 'Who do you think is the sexiest girl in business right now?' He said, 'Ash (Aishwarya Rai)'. The actor added, 'I can't take my eyes off her every time I meet her. It's embarrassing for men. She must be used to it (people staring at her). But I am not used to not being able to take my eyes off somebody. You just keep staring at her like a lunatic.' Post Taal, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan went on to star in films like Mohabbatein, Devdas, Umrao Jaan, Dhoom 2, Guru, Jodha Akbar, all of which became iconic films over the years and gained her immense praise from critics and the audience.

From 18 Years Older To 7 Years Younger: How Tannaz Irani Defied Norms In Love
Last Updated: Tannaz Irani's journey through love, heartbreak, and resilience shows how she broke norms, remarried against odds, and thrived in both family life and acting career Celebrity marriages, especially those of actresses, have always fascinated their fans. Who they marry, when they marry, and why – it all sparks endless curiosity and commentary. Indian cinema, too, reflects this shift. While many actresses today marry in their 40s, it wasn't long ago that tying the knot in their teens or early twenties was the norm. Tannaz Irani is one such actress whose personal journey mirrors the evolving norms of society and the emotional rollercoaster of love. At just 20, she entered her first marriage with Farid Currim, a respected theatre artist, singer, and performer, who was 18 years her senior. Though the significant age gap raised eyebrows, Tannaz Irani was captivated by Farid Currim's talent and emotional depth. The couple welcomed a daughter, Zianne, and shared eight years of marriage. But time began to reveal the cracks. While Tannaz Irani was still full of youthful energy, eager to build her career and enjoy life, Farid Currim had already lived through those phases. In a candid interview, Tannaz Irani once reflected, 'I wanted to party and focus on work, but he had already experienced that phase. We were in different places in life." Eventually, the two parted ways. Their daughter Zianne remained with her father, and Tannaz Irani carried on; heart bruised but spirit unbroken. Love Comes Knocking Again Then, in 2006, when she least expected it, love came knocking on Tannaz Irani's door again. While participating in the reality show Gurukul, she met actor Bakhtiyaar Irani. Younger by seven years and of a different faith, Bakhtiyaar Irani was an unlikely match yet their connection was undeniable. Their relationship was met with resistance. Bakhtiyaar Irani's family strongly opposed the match due to the age difference. But love, once again, found its way. With support from Bakhtiyaar Irani's sister, actress Delnaaz Irani, and elder brother, Paurus Irani, the couple stood strong against the odds and tied the knot in 2007. Tannaz Irani, a Parsi by faith, also faced criticism from her own community for marrying outside her religion. But she remained steadfast in her choice. Today, she shares a joyful life with Bakhtiyaar Irani, a testament to the fact that love, when true, is worth fighting for. Family And Career Highlights Tannaz and Bakhtiyaar Irani are parents to two children: son Zeus (born in 2008) and daughter Zara (born in 2011). Tannaz Irani continues to maintain a respectful co-parenting relationship with her elder daughter, Zianne. Professionally, Tannaz Irani has enjoyed a long and varied career in both cinema and television. She played notable supporting roles in films like Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai (2000), Humara Dil Aapke Paas Hai (2000), Rehna Hai Tere Dil Mein (2001), Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi Hai (2002), Main Prem Ki Deewani Hoon (2003), Kuch Naa Kaho (2003) and 36 China Town (2006).
