Shriya Pilgaonkar says Mirzapur, not Shah Rukh Khan's Fan, was her turning point: 'I'm known as Sweety Gupta to a lot of people'
Shriya Pilgaonkar , daughter of veteran actors Sachin and Supriya Pilgaonkar, was last seen playing a poised officer in Chhal Kapat: The Deception. In a recent interview with NDTV, the actress, who played the role of Sweety Gupta in Mirzapur, said that even though she made her debut alongside Shah Rukh Khan in Fan, her real breakthrough came through Mirzapur. "Although I made my Hindi film debut opposite Shah Rukh Khan in Fan, I think it was Mirzapur that really changed the momentum of my career in terms of the show's success. It was like doing a big commercial film, right? It's still extremely popular. I'm known as Sweety Gupta to a lot of people,' she added. Reflecting on other key moments that shaped her journey as an actor, she shared, "And after that, I think if I were to speak in terms of the scope that a part gave me, Guilty Minds—I mean, my character of the lawyer Kashaf Kazi in Guilty Minds—gave me a lot of love from critics, and I think it just gave me the scope to show what I'm capable of. Every actor really wants that, you know, when you have that much meat and that much scope to really play around, explore yourself, unravel those layers. But I've been very, very fortunate because all the parts I've played have had a certain graph and have been memorable in their own way." The actress added, "And people know me as those characters, and I think there is no bigger compliment than people calling you by the names of the characters—whether it is Sweety from Mirzapur or Madhu from Taaza Khabar—when people call me that, it makes me feel very good." by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Blood cancer is taking our curious baby away from us!

And I feel like I'm more ambitious than I've ever been," Shriya concluded. For the unversed, in Chhal Kapat: The Deception, Shriya plays a fierce cop. As part of her preparation for the role, she interacted with several real-life police officers in Uttar Pradesh, including ADG Padmaja Chauhan.

Fan Bingbing posts rare pic with parents, 74YO dad goes viral for youthful looks
Chinese movie star Fan Bingbing (1st from right) with her mother Zhang Chuanmei and father Fan Tao. Photo: Fan Bingbing/Weibo Multiple celebrities took to social media on June 15 to celebrate Fathers Day, and Chinese superstar Fan Bingbing was among those who shared heartfelt tributes to their dads. The 43-year-old actress shared a rare glimpse of her family life on Weibo, posting two photos – one with her parents and another of her father blowing out the candle on his cake. 'Happy Fathers Day! Wishing all the dads at home a happy day! The best dad, strongest support!' she wrote in the caption. The photos quickly went viral, with fans marvelling at how incredibly youthful Fan's father looked despite being 74. Some were even stunned enough to mistake him for her 25-year-old brother Chengcheng, who's also an actor and a singer. Several netizens mistook Fan's father for her 25-year-old brother, singer-actor Fan Chengcheng. Photos: Fan Bingbing/Weibo, Fan Chengcheng/Weibo 'Chengcheng isn't the one in the second picture?' one netizen asked. 'He's over 70? If you told me he was in his 40s, I'd believe you. This family is so beautiful,' another commented. 'Dad is becoming younger and younger,' a third chimed in. Fan's father Fan Tao was once a pop singer who often performed in regional competitions. Her mother Zhang Chuanmei, 70, was a dancer and actress.
