Kajol recalls the time she lost faith in God: 'It wasn't easy. I was really struggling...'
Kajol
In an emotional chat with Bollywood Bubble, actress Kajol reminisced about a very personal moment of her life, one in which her belief in a higher power briefly escaped her. A known strong woman both in and out of reality, the actress openly shared how she had ended up doubting everything she stood for following a painful ordeal she had decided against sharing in detail.
'Why did this have to happen at all?"
When asked whether she had ever questioned the existence or justice of God, Kajol did not hesitate to say that she had. "Yes, absolutely," she said. "There was a moment where everything I believed in, all my 'shraddha' and praying, seemed not to count." She explained how this was not a feeling of "why me? but a deeper, more existential type of confusion.
The actress was left wondering why this could happen to her despite her complete commitment.
The 'Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge' actress clarified that her spiritual disillusionment lasted for around a week. It was a period of queries, melancholy, and emotional stress. "It wasn't easy. I was really struggling," she acknowledged. But as the days went by, Kajol started to get back on her feet and look for meaning in the mayhem. "I thought perhaps there was a reason. Perhaps it wasn't destined to be.
Perhaps the universe had something else in mind," she said with a sense of hard-won tranquility.

APJ Abdul Kalam inspired Salman Khan's iconic ‘Tere Naam' hairstyle: Here's the proof of how much the actor admired India's Missile Man
Salman Khan 's look in the 2003 film 'Tere Naam' sparked a fashion wave across India. His long, middle-parted hair became so popular that fans rushed to salons to copy it. But years after the film's release, the actor finally revealed the real inspiration behind the famous hairstyle – and it wasn't what anyone expected. Inspired by the Missile Man of India In a surprising confession, Salman Khan said that the look from 'Tere Naam' was actually inspired by India's former President, Dr APJ Abdul Kalam . During his appearance on the first episode of 'The Great Indian Kapil Sharma Show Season 3', Salman spoke to host Kapil Sharma and said, 'Ye 'Tere Naam' ka jo look hai, woh actually inspired tha Abdul Kalam saab se.' He added that actor Rahul Roy also had a similar hairstyle in one of his films. But for 'Tere Naam', Salman thought the long hair fit the image of a small-town hero. He explained, 'I thought that small-town heroes always had long hair. All the old-school heroes had it too – that's where the inspiration came from.' Salman's Deep respect for Dr. Kalam Salman's connection with Dr Kalam went beyond just hairstyle. In 2015, after the passing of Dr APJ Abdul Kalam, Salman shared a series of heartfelt tweets expressing his admiration. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 임플란트, 지금 시작하세요 [자세히 보기] 임플란트 더 알아보기 Undo He wrote, 'I will miss Kalam saab.

I always wanted to meet Kalam saab and I should have made the effort. My loss.' Salman's choice to style his hair after Dr APJ Abdul Kalam was not just a creative decision but a quiet tribute to someone he deeply admired.

Madhubala biopic put on hold; Makers rework budget plans - Here's what we know
The much-anticipated biopic on legendary actress Madhubala has hit a temporary roadblock. Directed by Jasmeet K Reen, who earned acclaim with her 2022 film Darlings, the film's production has been put on hold due to budgetary constraints, even though the script is reportedly complete. High Budget Causes a Pause Initially envisioned as a lavish period drama, the film was set to portray the grandeur of Madhubala's life and era, with a projected budget of Rs 80 to Rs 100 crore. However, as per News 18 reports, the production team — comprising Sony Pictures International Productions, Brewing Thoughts Pvt. Ltd., and Madhubala Pictures — found that the high costs related to period detailing, elaborate sets, and costumes could make it difficult to recover the investment. Reportedly the recovery math didn't add up and the budget had to be re-evaluated. Searching for a Middle Ground Reportedly, the team is now working hard to redesign the financial plan without compromising on the essence of the story. 'The goal is to honour Madhubala's legacy while keeping the project financially viable. The budget is now being slashed to almost half,' said a source. As a result, casting discussions with top female actors — previously underway — have been temporarily paused until the revised plan is finalised. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Perdagangkan CFD Emas dengan Broker Tepercaya IC Markets Mendaftar Undo Despite the financial pause, the spirit behind the project remains strong.

Eagerly awaited show Aami Dakini is poised to captivate audiences with its intense storytelling and atmospheric depth. Filmed in the evocative streets of Kolkata, the show presents an angle of Husn bhi, Maut bhi. At the heart of it lies Dakini — a mysterious figure whose silence speaks volumes, whose gaze unsettles, and whose presence lingers. This fresh narrative marks a powerful return and here's why Aami Dakini is unmissable. At its core is Ayaan Roy Choudhary, portrayed by Hitesh Bhardwaj, a skeptic drawn into an enchanting world. Reflecting on his experience, Hitesh shares, 'At its core is Ayaan Roy Choudhary, portrayed by Hitesh Bhardwaj — a skeptic drawn into an enchanting, unpredictable world. Reflecting on his experience, Hitesh shares, 'Aami Dakini isn't your typical story—it's layered, emotional, and quietly intense. As Ayaan, I had to strip away the usual dramatics and focus on stillness, on what isn't said. That was the real challenge. It taught me that in stories like this, mood matters more than spectacle. Every glance, every pause holds meaning. You're not just reacting to a scene—you're responding to an atmosphere where husn bhi hai, maut bhi. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Free P2,000 GCash eGift UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo That duality stays with you, even after pack-up.' Speaking about one of his most memorable moments from the shoot, Hitesh shared, "There was this one scene between Meera (Raachi) and me, where both of us had to be really angry at each other. The emotions were so raw, we completely surrendered to the moment. When the scene ended, there was this silence… and then the whole crew started clapping. That felt special, like something real had just happened." "And another one with Sheen I remember telling her, 'Please don't look at me during my close-up, I am getting scared, because the way she was performing it was so intense and powerful, I was genuinely shaken.
