10 Years Of Masaan: Vicky Kaushal Recalls Fond Memories Of His Debut Film, Says "Feels Like Yesterday"
Mumbai: Vicky Kaushal took to social media to celebrate 10 years of his debut film, Masaan. The Sanju actor shared heartfelt memories from the project that marked a turning point in his career. He took to Instagram to share a carousel of throwback pictures from Masaan with the cast and crew. He captioned it, "Feels like yesterday." The opening frame of the carousel had a text message which read, "It's been a decade. So much to learn, so much to you for everything. Musafir hai hum bhi, musafir ho tum bhi. Kisi modh pe phir mulaakat hogi." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Vicky Kaushal (@vickykaushal09) The 2015 drama marked the acting debut of Vicky Kaushal and the directorial debut of Neeraj Ghaywan. The film also starred Richa Chadda in the lead role. The movie was showcased in the Un Certain Regard section at the Cannes Film Festival, where it won two awards. It was later screened at the first New York Dalit Film and Cultural Festival, along with films like Pariyerum Perumal, Kaala, and Fandry. Since its release, the film has gained cult status and continues to be celebrated for its powerful storytelling. The story of Masaan revolved around four individuals in Varanasi, each dealing with their own struggles related to love, grief, and social pressures. It followed a low-caste boy in love with an upper-caste girl, a daughter dealing with guilt after a tragic encounter, a father facing moral challenges, and a child longing for a family. Their lives came together along the ghats of the Ganges, as they all tried to break free from the restrictions of their small-town society. Meanwhile, Vicky Kaushal's most recent appearance was in the historical drama Chhaava, where he portrayed Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj, the son of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj. The action drama also featured Ashutosh Rana, Akshaye Khanna, Rashmika Mandanna, and Diana Penty, among others. The movie was released on February 14, 2025 and went on to become the highest-grossing Indian film of the year, as well as the top-grossing Hindi film of 2025.

Siddhant Chaturvedi Reveals He Was Rejected From Laila Majnu: 'I Grew My Beard But...'
Last Updated: Siddhant Chaturvedi reveals he was rejected from Laila Majnu for looking too young, despite growing a beard and sending new photos. Triptii Dimri later starred in the film. Before Gully Boy catapulted Siddhant Chaturvedi into Bollywood's limelight, the actor had nearly made his big-screen debut with Triptii Dimri in the 2018 romantic tragedy Laila Majnu. In a recent candid chat with Just Too Filmy, Siddhant opened up about how he was shortlisted for the lead role in the Sajid Ali-directed film — but eventually lost it due to his age. Currently gearing up for the release of Dhadak 2 opposite Triptii Dimri, Siddhant was asked which of her earlier performances he admired most. Without missing a beat, he chose Laila Majnu. 'I was shortlisted for Laila Majnu, and I was 22 at that point in time. Very close," he recalled. Explaining what cost him the part, he said, 'The thing is, the guy had to be older than the girl. I didn't know who was going to be playing the girl. It was my audition round days. I auditioned, but they felt I was a little too young." Desperate to land the role, Siddhant even tried to tweak his appearance. 'I grew my beard. My brother shot me in his new camera, and I made a profile that I sent them. Obviously, it didn't work out," he admitted with a smile. Eventually, the role of Qais went to Avinash Tiwary, with Triptii making her film debut as Laila. Though Laila Majnu underperformed during its initial theatrical run in 2018, the film found a second life online, developing a loyal fan base post its digital release. In a surprising twist of fate, when it was re-released in theatres in August 2024, it earned four times more than its original run and finally turned profitable. 'I went to the screening of Laila Majnu just to know what I was missing out on," Siddhant said, adding that he was deeply moved by Triptii's performance in the film. Now, the duo will finally share the screen in Dhadak 2, directed by Shazia Iqbal and produced by Dharma Productions, Zee Studios, and Cloud 9 Pictures. Touted as a spiritual sequel to Dhadak and an official remake of the Tamil film Pariyerum Perumal, Dhadak 2 is set to hit theatres on August 1, 2025.

Triptii Dimri's sister got stressed seeing the hate for her online post Animal: 'She read every comment till late night'
Even though Laila Majnu marked her debut as a lead in 2018, it was the 2023 release Animal that marked Triptii Dimri's breakthrough into the mainstream. Her cameo in the ₹900-crore blockbuster brought her many eyeballs, but a large amount of criticism and trolling as well. Triptii's nude scene and intimate scenes in the film were heavily criticised online, to a point where the actor felt she had to detach herself from social media. Triptii Dimri with Ranbir Kapoor in Animal. On Animal and hate online However, her loved ones were still rattled by it. In conversation with Just Too Filmy, Triptii recently revealed that her sister, who has been her rock throughout her career, was stressed by the hate coming her way. Talking about the backlash after Animal, Triptii said, "After all the criticism, I had stopped reading anything. She was the one who would read every comment till late at night, and she'd get stressed. She realised it would affect me eventually. So, she said, 'People are going to talk even if you do good. Rather, do what you truly believe in. It's your life, and you get to live it only once. You will make mistakes, but just learn from them'." On her sister's advice In the same interview, Triptii credited her sister as being her biggest support from outside the industry. "I have been blessed with good friends, and my sister has always been there for me since day 1. Even when I was failing at auditions, she was there. I would call her crying, and she would say, 'You have to keep doing this. Don't listen to the noise, don't listen to relatives or people around me. Just keep doing this and see if it works for you. If you're not happy, that's the only time you step back'," said the actor, adding that her advice has really helped her. Triptii will now be seen opposite Siddhant Chaturvedi in Dhadak 2. Directed by Shazia Iqbal, the film is being produced by Dharma Productions, Zee Studios, and Cloud 9 Pictures. A spiritual sequel to Dhadak and a remake of the Tamil film Pariyerum Perumal, Dhadak 2 will be released in theatres on August 1.
