Nimrat Kaur Breaks Silence On Rumours About Her Personal Life: 'Faltu Time Nahi Hain'
Last Updated: At the News18 SheShakti event, Nimrat Kaur dismissed rumours about her personal life, expressing pity for those spreading them, and emphasised her focus on meaningful work. Actor Nimrat Kaur was one of the guest speakers at the News18 SheShakti event when she addressed rumours about her personal life. The Lunchbox actor revealed that she 'pities" those who frame rumours and circulate them on social media. Her reaction comes amid last year's dating speculations with Dasvi co-star Abhishek Bachchan. Nimrat Kaur spoke about how she deals with rumours about her personal space. 'Social media apne aap mein ek aisa amoeba hain, wo kabhi bhi, kahi bhi ugta hain, kisi bhi reason se – bhale kaaran hain, nahi hain. Mera focus life mein kya hona chhaiye wo bohot clear hain. Mumbai sheher main social media ke liye nahi aayi thi, uss waqt tha bhi nahi. Smart phones bhi nahi the (In both cases, I'd be giving that thing some kind of validation. Social media is like an amoeba—it can sprout anywhere, anytime, for any reason—whether there's a reason or not. I'm very clear about what my focus in life should be. I didn't come to Mumbai for social media—it didn't even exist back then. There were no smartphones either)," she said. She further explained, 'Mera life goal aur aim hain ke main kaam ki jama punji badhau naaki befaltu ke cheeze, jinn logo ke paas bohot samay hain, mujhe toh taras hi aata hain ke apne life ya apne samay ke saath kuch better hi karle. It's futile and a waste of their time and life (My life goal and aim is to grow a solid body of work, not waste time on meaningless things that people with too much free time engage in. Honestly, I feel pity for them. They should really do something better with their life or their time. It's futile—a complete waste of their time and life)." She also stated, 'I pity them, it's sad. I have that much compassion for them. Mujhe unki upbringing aur parivaar ke liye dukh hota hain (I pity them. It's sad. I do have that much compassion. I feel sorry for their upbringing and for their families)." The actor also mentioned, 'I feel sad for them. Kisi raah chalte aadmi agar aapko befaltu kuch bolega toh bura lagega kya apko? Usko taqleef ho rahi hain, madat ki zaroorat hain. Zindagi mein bohot kuch karni hain, bohot lamba safar. Ye sab ke liye faltu time nahi hain mere paas (I genuinely feel bad for them. If some random person on the street says something useless to you, would you even be offended? Clearly, that person is in pain and needs help. There's so much I want to do in life, such a long journey ahead. I really don't have time for all this nonsense)." On the work front, Nimrat Kaur was seen in Sky Force, Kull: The Legacy of the Raisingghs. She also made a special appearance in Abhishek Bachchan's Kaalidhar Laapata.

Nimrat Kaur On Male-Dominated Bollywood: 'I Am Here For A Long Run'
Nimrat Kaur also revealed that she does not prefer to be a part of projects which promote stereotypes about women. Nimrat Kaur attended CNN-News18's SheShakti 2025's Mumbai edition on Thursday, when she opened up about the male-dominated film industry. During her session, Nimrat stated that she does not look at herself differently just because she is a woman and explained that it is important to break self-created compulsions first to fight society. 'I just be myself. We live in a male-dominated world. It is a society where we know that we have more factors against us. There are more stereotypes. There are self-created compulsions also – as a girl, I can do certain things and cannot do others. We need to break this first. I do not look at myself with a deprived view just because I am a woman or we live in a male-dominated world," she said. Nimrat revealed that she does not prefer to be a part of projects which promote stereotypes about women. 'I do not attract such work," she stated and then added, 'I am here for the long run. I know, I'll be here for decades. All my choices are leading up to something." News18 SheShakti 2025, presented by Lions International, honoured exceptional changemakers with the historic launch of its first-ever regional edition. The event brought together distinguished voices from across sectors for powerful discussions on power, passion, and progress. SheShakti 2025 is rooted in a core belief: the real work of nation-building often begins at the grassroots—when women, even in the face of adversity, create solutions for their communities and unlock opportunity where none existed. Meanwhile, talking about Nimrat, the actress was seen in the high-octane action drama Sky Force alongside Akshay Kumar and debutant Veer Pahariya earlier this year. Following this, Nimrat also featured in the digital release Kaalidhar Laapata, where she reunited with her Dasvi co-star Abhishek Bachchan. While her role in the film was a special appearance, her presence added emotional depth and familiarity to the storyline.

Twists, Turns, and Truths: ‘Kaalidhar Laapata' Is the New Gem on ZEE5 2025 Movies
Kaalidhar Laapata is a refreshing thriller movie on ZEE5 to watch. It is the Hindi remake of the Tamil gem Karuppu Durai. Both of the movies are directed by Madhumita and co-produced with ZEE Studios. Kaalidhar is showing the character of a middle-aged man who has lost his memory. His life takes a huge turn when he finds that his family plans to abandon him during the Kumbh Mela. Kaalidhar vanishes himself on his terms after listing this. It is an interesting story that brings up different twists, turns and truths along with it. Twist 1: Abandonment Is Just the Beginning Kaalidhar Laapata is one of the best 2025 movies on ZEE5 that brings up multi-layered characterisation, the road less travelled, and emotional unpredictability to the audience. The story initially appears to be emotional, and betrayal turns up the terrain of self-reclamation soon. Rather than just descending into the world of bitterness, Kaalidhar chooses to live life freely and that further initiates the different unexpected turns in the figure. Even the trailer of the movie perfectly hints at the story of an abandoned man and a smart and active child. Both of the characters look for hope while spending a beautiful time together. Twist 2: Meet Ballu – The Catalyst of Chaos Daivik Baghela, in the character of an 8-year-old orphan Ballu, appears to be quite curious, energetic and innocent. His chemistry with Kaalidhar shows the shades of buddy movies. It is a dynamic and refreshingly unpredictable movie where you can see the duo facing different challenges and heartfelt situations. The story brings up a dual transformation arc, and that appears as the most satisfying turn of the movie. Twist 3: Memory, Identity & Redemption Memory loss is the third and powerful twist that further takes the audience to beautiful and crowded Kumbh ghats and sun-baked villages. Kaalidhar Laapata is the beautiful story of Abhishek Bachchan, who appears to be drifting in and out of memories. The movie perfectly brings up flashbacks of the past life of Kaalidhar and also tells about the moments of disorientation that further build empathy and uncertainty in the movie. The movie perfectly shows the quiet internal battles of Kaalidhar, including identity crises. Whether it is about a roadside dhaba or an empty field, every single object in the movie perfectly reflects the internal turmoil of Kaalidhar. Mixed Genre Twists Kaalidhar Laapata is not just a thriller movie but also includes the themes of dramedy, road film and mystery. Emotional Dramedy Kaalidhar Laapata brings the audience the perfect blend of grief, hope, humour and warmth. It is a heartfelt dramedy that perfectly explores the audience's life, loss, laughter and the liberating beauty of unexpected companionship. Road movie Kaalidhar Laapata presents the audience with the beautiful rural landscapes. It is an emotional internal story that offers absolute geographical visuals. Drama Mystery The sudden disappearance of Kaalidhar raises different queries for the audience. The movie perfectly blends multiple genres, bringing up a refreshing take for the audience. The movie keeps on audience guessing with each turn. Cast Cameos Kaalidhar Laapata brings up two different familiar faces as cameo roles for the audience. Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub emerges from the past of Kaalidhar through fragmented flashback memories and adds tension to the story. The character of Nimrat Kaur shows the emotional side of Kaalidhar. Both of the characters are not just cameos but are important figures of the stories that change the tone and emotions of the story, and also question the motives. Audience Engagement Kaalidhar Laapata is one of the most engaging movies on ZEE5 that positions viewers as the co-narrators. The plot features a zigzag tone and timing and invites speculation, reflection and participation from the audience. It keeps guessing the audience whether the duo will complete their bucket list. The interactive engagement of the movie perfectly elevates the storyline and makes it even more conversational. Emotional Payoff Kaalidhar Laapata brings up unpredictable storytelling where each twist brings up a coherent emotional truth. Different moments like flashbacks, reframing scenes, Ballu's background story, and memory triggers bring up a perfect emotional payoff to the story. The same not only reveals the prior intentions but also brings up the twists. These revelations move the story and keep on resonating even after the credits roll. Kaalidhar Laapata perfectly showcases the story of a broken man and a street-smart child. It is a new gem where each smile tells the story of betrayal and hidden pain. Each path, each surprise and each silent truth is perfectly crafted and brings up a new perspective to the movie. It is the story of relationships and betrayal, and keeps the audience on the edge of their seats. The journey of both Kaalidhar and Ballu is quite interesting, engaging and emotional.
