Madhuri Dixit shares quirky dance reel that many women will relate with

Madhuri Dixit Nene is easily India’s one of the biggest and most loved actresses. Be it the iconic track ‘Ek Do Teen’ from ‘Tezaab’ where she revolutionised dance in Bollywood or her work in films like ‘Anjaam’, ‘Koyla’, ‘Dil To Pagal Hai’ and ‘Pukar’, the actress has always enthralled the audience and has enjoyed their undivided attention.

Recently, she shared a quirky Instagram reel where she can be seen dancing her heart out. Well, dancing comes naturally to Madhuri and she makes the perfect use of this skill in the video.

Captioning the reel, Madhuri wrote, “It has pockets ?? #alwaystrending #reels #reelsinstagram.”

Dressed in a royal blue pocket dress paired with beige coloured stilettos, the actress grooved to the beats of the hugely popular song from TikTok ‘It has pockets’. She rounded up her look with minimalist earrings and open wavy tresses. The reel got a thundering applause from her fans as they were overjoyed to see their idol treating them with her impeccable talent of dancing once again, this time on their phone screens.

The reel clicked especially with the women of Instagram as having a pocket-friendly (pun intended) dress is a rare feat in women’s clothing. The absence of pockets in their dresses results in a lot of struggles for women in terms of carrying around their stuff. Madhuri’s quirky reel not just brings a chuckle on the audience’s faces but also comes with a strong relatability factor to all the women out there.

On the work front, Samantha has a couple of interesting subjects she would start shooting for soon, while she is also taking her personal space to cope with the recent tumult in her life.

Sanya Malhotra talks about sex still being a taboo subject in India

Actress Sanya Malhotra agrees that sex is still a taboo subject in India however she feels with the help of cinema and other platforms things are changing.

Sanya features in the show ‘Sasural Wonder Phool’ on Audible. It also stars Varun Sharma. The show is a romantic comedy, where Sanya’s character ‘Ashima’ gets married to a sex therapist played by Varun, who runs a sex clinic with his entire family.

Talking about the subject of sex, Sanya told IANS: “Definitely a taboo. But with films, with cinema, with other platforms I think things are changing, and according to me, I think, I believe that there is a demand for such stories that’s the reason the creators are willing to create shows like ‘Sasural Wonder Phool’.”

She added: “I’m hoping with this show and we are able to change a few things maybe inspire people to be more comfortable when they’re talking about sex or sex-related issues. I honestly feel that my character in ‘Sasural Wonder Phool’, which is Ashima, reflects our society wonderfully, you know she’s a prude, she’s not so comfortable talking about sex.”

“And when she gets to know that her in-laws and her husband run a sex clinic, it’s a complete shocker for her.”

The ‘Dangal’ actress hopes that the audiences connect with her character’s journey.

Sanya said: “But then, obviously, it’s also a learning experience for her that it’s so natural, it’s so natural to talk about it too. So I hope that the audience connects to her and her journey from not being so comfortable talking about sex to maybe okay, or…whether she’s the same, whether she changes or not.”

This is the first time Sanya has tried her hands in audio storytelling.

Asked what motivates her to explore different platforms, she said: “I love performing! No matter what the platform or the medium is.”

She revealed that the show ‘Sasural Wonder Phool’ was recorded last year during the pandemic and that time she was really “missing, acting and being on set and performing.”

“So, when I got the offer and when I got to know that it’s with Varun Sharma, I could not say no to it. I really admire Varun too for his acting skills and his comedy timing and it was very exciting to know that I will be working with him on this one. So definitely an experiment, but I’m so glad that I did it. It was a great learning experience because it’s very similar to acting.”

Vishnu Manchu clears the air on his presence at Pawan Kalyan rally

Vishnu Manchu, who shared the dais with Telugu ‘power star’ Pawan Kalyan at the ‘Alai Balai’ event here, had tweeted a video which had drawn criticism from both sides following the recent MAA elections.

Most of the replies to the tweet had criticised that Vishnu was ignored by Pawan Kalyan at the event. Some netizens even went further and commented that Vishnu deserved to be ignored for the unwanted comments he made on the ‘Mega’ family during the MAA elections.

Vishnu Manchu finally came out in his defence, clearing the air about the video. Vishnu said, “I shared the video to surprise Pawan Kalyan’s fans, as Pawan Kalyan has a lot of fans. It is not true that he ignored me or we have any kind of enmity as it is projected. As per the protocol at the Alai Balai event, we did not talk on the stage. But sure had a brief chat off the stage,” Vishnu said.

Vishnu added that Pawan Kalyan had wished him on winning the MAA elections. “Pawan Kalyan expressed that MAA is like his mother, and asked me to protect it with full responsibility”. Going forward, Vishnu also posted a YouTube link, where Pawan Kalyan and Vishnu seem to be having a brief conversation.

Well, the industry folks are wondering why Vishnu is keen to prove these things, while he has a greater responsibility as the president of MAA.

The recent Movie Artistes Association (MAA) elections had triggered friction among Tollywood artistes. With the elected president Vishnu’s media interactions, and his father Mohan Babu’s public statements, things got only worse.

Vishnu Manchu had commented about Chiranjeevi and his family being against him during the elections.

So, the makers who have made a survey about Lahari’s eviction, are keen on bringing her on board in the coming days, as per the reports.

Now that these reports are coming out, Lahari is to be seen in a blasting re-entry soon. Lahari had a cute bond with one of the top contestants Manasa, while she also had a bond built with anchor Ravi, by the time she had to leave the reality show.

Well, as the glamourous actress Lahari is to be back on the show, how things would work in the house is to be seen.
