Reminiscing about those carefree days, the 'Ek Tha Tiger' actor confessed that things once took a serious turn when a game went a bit too far. The ' Bajrangi Bhaijaan ' actor said, 'Long time back, we three brothers were watching the movie Tarzan and playing a game that involved stones.

Hansika Motwani: Rumours Of Separation Swirl After Fairytale OTT Wedding
1/6 Indian cinema is no stranger to actresses who transition swiftly from child artists to leading ladies, often before they've fully matured. One such case is that of Hansika Motwani, whose personal and professional life continues to attract public scrutiny. Hansika, who first caught attention as a child star in Hrithik Roshan's sci-fi drama Koi... Mil Gaya (2003), quickly re-emerged as a lead actress. Her striking transformation raised eyebrows when, at the age of just 15, she starred opposite Allu Arjun in Desamuduru (2007). One of the most controversial claims surrounding her rise was an allegation that her mother administered hormone injections to accelerate her development, a claim that has never been officially confirmed but continues to circulate. In December 2022, Hansika married businessman Sohail Khaturia in a grand ceremony in Jaipur. The lavish wedding and its planning were showcased in an OTT series titled Hansika's Love Shaadi Drama. Even before the ceremony, the relationship was surrounded by controversy. Sohail had previously been married to Rinki Bajaj, one of Hansika's close friends. Two years into their marriage, speculation has grown over the state of Hansika and Sohail's relationship. Reports now claim the couple is living apart, Hansika with her mother, and Sohail with his parents. A source told Hindustan Times that they initially lived together with Sohail's family but moved into a separate flat in the same building due to difficulties adjusting to a large household. However, tensions allegedly continued. When approached for comment, Hansika did not respond. Sohail, however, denied the claims via a text message, stating simply: "That's not true". It remains uncertain whether he was denying their separation or addressing another element of the speculation.

Did you know before Ranbir Kapoor, Salman Khan was almost Lord Ram? Romance between Sohail Khan-Pooja Bhatt led to mythological epic being shelved
In the early 1990s, Sohail Khan envisioned a grand Bollywood Ramayana with Salman Khan as Lord Ram and Sonali Bendre as Sita. However, an on-set romance between Sohail and Pooja Bhatt, coupled with family disapproval, led to Pooja's exit. Consequently, the ambitious project was shelved, dashing hopes for a landmark mythological film. As excitement builds around Nitesh Tiwari 's upcoming Ramayana, starring Ranbir Kapoor and Yash, few remember that Bollywood almost brought the epic to life decades ago—with Salman Khan in the lead. Long before this modern retelling, a grand version of the Ramayana was set in motion by Sohail Khan in the early 1990s. But just as the film was gaining momentum, an unexpected off-screen romance—and a family rift—led to its sudden collapse. Sohail Khan's Mythological Dream According to story published in back in the early 1990s, Sohail—fresh off his directorial debut Auzaar—was gearing up for his next ambitious project: a Bollywood adaptation of the Ramayana. He had envisioned a grand scale and an impressive cast, with his brother Salman Khan set to play 'Lord Ram' and Sonali Bendre cast as 'Goddess Sita'. At the time, Salman was already emerging as one of Bollywood's biggest stars, making the project all the more high-profile. Pooja Bhatt Joins the Cast Pooja Bhatt was also onboard for the ambitious project, which had already completed nearly 40percent of its shoot. Salman Khan had even begun early promotions, donning traditional attire with a bow and arrow, sparking excitement among fans for his portrayal of Lord Ram. With strong initial buzz and a star-studded cast, the film was shaping up to be a grand mythological spectacle — until fate intervened and brought it to an unexpected halt. Romance on Set Derails the Film Preparations were progressing smoothly when an unexpected twist disrupted the film's trajectory. According to a report in Mid-Day and Sohail and Pooja developed a romantic relationship during the shoot of Ramayana. Their bond quickly deepened, and by 1995, Pooja had even spoken openly about the possibility of marriage—adding an off-screen complication that would soon impact the fate of the film. However, things took a turn when Salim Khan , the patriarch of the Khan family, reportedly disapproved of Sohail and Pooja's growing relationship. Concerned about potential complications, he is said to have advised Sohail to call it off. The resulting fallout not only ended the romance but also derailed the ambitious Ramayana project—bringing Salman and Sohail's mythological dream to an abrupt halt. Project Shelved After Pooja Bhatt's Exit Pooja was reportedly deeply hurt by the Khan family's cold stance, and tensions quickly escalated. She exited the project, and soon after, the ambitious film began to crumble. Despite Salman Khan's efforts to keep it afloat, nothing could save the production. The project was ultimately shelved indefinitely—bringing an end to what could have been a landmark mythological film featuring Salman Khan as Lord Ram and Sonali Bendre as Sita. Ramayana Returns Now, nearly thirty years after the original project fell apart, Ramayana is being revived on an even grander scale. Directed by Dangal and Chhichhore fame Nitesh Tiwari and co-produced by Namit Malhotra and actor Yash, the upcoming adaptation is envisioned as a two-part epic and is poised to become the most expensive Indian film ever made.
