Charrul Malik, a former news anchor-turned-actor, currently graces the screen in the popular show “Bhabiji Ghar Par Hai!” She candidly shared how her news anchor days instilled in her the habit of being camera-ready at all times. People often compliment her for her perpetual readiness. Charrul emphasized that she doesn’t feel pressured to look good constantly. Whether she wears a Rs. 500 top or a Rs. 50,000 dress, her confidence remains unwavering. Her years as a news anchor conditioned her to maintain a presentable appearance consistently. It’s practically in her blood. The actress has a knack for selecting colourful and attractive attire, even if it’s budget-friendly. She opts for fabrics that stay wrinkle-free, exude brightness, and fit perfectly. This habit has persisted for 18 years, and she occasionally wears her clothes for shoots. For Charrul, fashion revolves around comfort and attitude. If she’s not comfortable in an outfit, it doesn’t qualify as true fashion. She prioritizes what suits her and complements her personality. While she doesn’t blindly follow trends, she adds her unique touch with accessories, shoes, handbags, and hairbands. Charrul’s love for coordinated outfits (coords) stems from their comfort. However, she advises caution in choosing them, as some can resemble nightwear. She avoids certain fabrics and prints […]

Being a celebrity comes with many perks, but also many challenges. One of the biggest challenges is how to protect your personal life from the media and the public. Actress Sherleen Dutt, who starred in Honey Trap Squad, shares her insights on how to balance privacy and publicity as a celebrity. Sherleen says that it is not easy to keep personal details private, especially in Bollywood, where the media attention is intense. She says that she constantly evaluates how much personal information to share while keeping a sense of privacy and authenticity. She says that some aspects of personal life, such as intimate relationships and family matters, should always be off-limits. She also says that maintaining a level of mystery can make an actor more attractive and interesting to the fans. Sherleen acknowledges that things are changing in the age of social media, where many actor couples share more about their families and children.

In the ever-evolving world of entertainment, social media has become a powerful tool for actors and celebrities to connect with their fans. However, actress Yashashri Masurkar believes that this trend needs a reevaluation. She advocates for a shift in focus from social media followers to genuine acting talent. The Superficiality of Social Media Fame Yashashri asserts that social media fame is often fleeting—a mere “fad.” While it may grant temporary attention, it lacks the substance associated with true fame. Being the “flavour of the month” on platforms like Instagram or Twitter doesn’t necessarily translate to lasting recognition. In her view, actors should not be solely judged based on their online presence. Decoupling Fame and Success The correlation between fame and success isn’t as straightforward as it seems. Yashashri emphasizes that fame and professional achievements are not mutually dependent. An actor’s talent can resonate with audiences even if they don’t achieve widespread fame. Conversely, being famous doesn’t guarantee project success. She cites the example of Shah Rukh Khan, who faced box-office disappointments but remained an iconic figure. Character Names vs. Real Identity On television, some actors become synonymous with their character names. Yashashri acknowledges that this form of fame isn’t wasted—it […]
