Yami Gautam reveals she suffers from skin condition called Keratosis pilaris

Actress Yami Gautam has revealed that she is suffering from a skin condition called Keratosis pilaris and said that she developed the condition during her teenage years and that there is no cure for it.

Yami also shared a bunch of unedited pictures embracing her skin on Twitter.

Alongside the images, she wrote: “Hello friends,I recently shot for some images and just when they were about to go in for post-production (a common procedure) to conceal my skin condition called Keratosis-Pilaris, I thought, ‘Hey Yami, why don’t you embrace this fact and accept it enough to be OKAY with it.”

Keratosis pilaris is a condition that causes rough patches and small, acne-like bumps on the skin.

Yami added: “I also found the courage to share my truth with you. Phew! I didn’t feel like airbrushing my folliculitis or smoothing that ‘under-eye’ or ‘shaping up’ that waist a tiny bit more! And yet, I feel beautiful.”

She revealed that she has been dealing with it for many years and has now decided to let go of all her fears with the post.

“I developed this skin condition during my teenage years, and there is still no cure for it. I’ve dealt with it for many years now and today finally, I decided to let go of all my fears and insecurities and found the courage to love and accept my ‘flaws’ wholeheartedly,” she concluded.

Ayushmann Khurrana: I’m a total director’s actor

Ayushmann Khurrana says he naturally gravitates towards edgy content and that he is a complete director’s actor.

On the third anniversary of ‘Andhadhun’, directed by Sriram Raghavan, Ayushmann thanked the director for choosing to collaborate with him.

Ayushmann said: “I naturally gravitate towards edgy and disruptive scripts and ‘Andhadhun’ was a combination of everything that is fresh, unique, path-breaking.”

He added: “Sriram Raghavan is one of the best directors of our country and I’m fortunate that I got the opportunity to creatively collaborate with him.”

The film revolves around a boy named Akash, a piano player pretending to be visually-impaired. He unwittingly becomes entangled in a number of problems as he witnesses the murder of a former film actor.

Ayushmann said that he “surrendered” to Raghavan’s vision and his mastery.

“I’m proud that Andhadhun is part of my filmography. It is a project that made me unlearn and learn a lot. Playing a blind man who plays the piano was not an easy task.”

The actor reveals that he was hand-held by the director all through the preparation process and shoot which resulted in him delivering a brilliant performance that earned him the Best Actor award at the National Film Awards.

He says, “I couldn’t have done this with authenticity if I didn’t have a visionary person like Sriram sir to handhold me. I have to credit Pooja Ladha Surti (co-writer and editor) for her magic in shaping the film. And I’m thankful to my piano coach Akshayye Varma too.”

Ayushmann felt challenged as an artiste during ‘Andhadhun’ and that propelled him to deliver his best on screen.

He says, “I’m a total director’s actor and ‘Andhadhun’ made me a better actor than before. It taught me to always challenge myself as an artiste and be a restless creative soul.

“‘Andhadhun’ was one of the most fulfilling films creatively for me as it gave me the freedom to express myself freely. So, all credit to Sriram sir for bringing out a side to me that I didn’t think existed and I thank him for choosing me to be a part of his masterpiece.”

‘Bigg Boss 15’: Big fight erupts between Afsana-Vidhi, Jay-Pratik

‘Bigg Boss 15’ hosted by Salman Khan has started and this time as the theme is ‘jungle’ so contestants are experiencing altogether different situations.

As the contestants settle inside the house, the ‘sankat’ in the jungle has started creeping in. We already saw Donal Bisht was saved from the nomination as Ieeshan Sehgal nominated himself and during a conversation with other contestants Umar Riaz called Donal manipulative.

Also Afsana Khan shares about her marriage in November with other contestants and how she has put her wedding plans on hold for this show. Jay Bhanushali suggested to Ieeshan that he should open up as he is nominated for the week and needs votes. There were also some heated conversations among the participants.

In today’s episode a big fight erupted between Afsana and Vidhi right after ‘Bigg Boss’ commanded everyone to turn in their belongings except for the essentials. As Vidhi hurried everyone to follow the order, Afsana suddenly lost her nerve and started screaming at her. “Tu hoti kaun hai mujhe bolne waali?” (who are you to say all this to me) she fired at her. Equally strong-willed herself, Vidhi also lashed out at Afsana, threatening to hit her to quieten her down.

Meanwhile, another fight took place between Jay and Pratik. The continuous shenanigans of Pratik regarding the house rules irked Jay and Umar. While Jay warned Pratik to watch his mouth, the latter hit back by bringing up orders from Bigg Boss. While Umar and Karan sided with Jay, Nishant took Pratik’s side. Thus alliances have started forming in the jungle, where survival will become challenging with every passing minute!

‘Bigg Boss 15’ airs every Monday to Friday at 10:30 pm and Saturday-Sunday at 9:30 pm on COLORS.

Jyotika releases trailer of Tamil film ‘Udanpirappe’

The trailer of actress Jyotika’s film ‘Udanpirappe’ was released on Monday. The family drama marks the 50th film for the well-known actress.

The film is written and directed by Era Saravanan, and is the second DTS film from the recently announced multi-film collaboration between Jyotika-Suriya’s 2D Entertainment and Amazon Prime Video.

The trailer shows the story based in the Pudukottai district in Tamil Nadu. It is about two siblings Vairavan (portrayed by Sasikumar) and Mathangi (portrayed by Jyotika). While Vairavan thinks justice has to be claimed anyhow, Mathangi’s husband, Sargunam (portrayed by Samuthirakani) rests his belief in law diligently. As the differences intensify over the years, both get driven by the goal of uniting their families.

Expressing her excitement, Jyotika said: “Family and relationships have always been the core of my being. When I was narrated the story, I knew I wanted to be a part of this emotionally satisfying family drama. It has been a delightful experience working with a talented ensemble cast and putting together this labour of love and passion. ‘Udanpirappe’ is also my 50th film, and as an actor I am thankful for all the love my fans have showered on me over the years.”

Suriya, Founder of 2D Entertainment, added: “It’s a heart-warming film brought to life by some fine actors and we believe it will resonate with audiences in India and beyond, and also bring families together this festive season of Dussehra.”

‘Udanpirappe’ will stream directly on Amazon Prime Video from October 14.

A.R. Rahman: Docu-feature was unexplored territory for me, until now

Oscar-winning music director A.R. Rahman says creating music for a docu-feature was an ‘unexplored’ space for him until now, as he has composed the music for Netflix’s upcoming ‘House of Secrets: The Burari Deaths’.

The docu-feature traces the mystery behind Delhi’s infamous Burari deaths, where 11 members across three generations of a family were found dead under strange circumstances in their house in Delhi.

Directed by Leena Yadav and Anubhav Chopra, the original score of the docu-series is composed and produced by Rahman.

Rahman said, “Collaborating with Leena Yadav ji on House Of Secrets was a unique experience for me. Since the docu-series concerns a sensitive, complex issue, it required a distinct, nuanced musical approach — enigmatic yet gripping. I am glad to have worked on such a project, which so far has been unexplored territory for me.”

Leena, earlier known for making films like ‘Shabd’, ‘Parched’, ‘Rajma Chawal’ – shares her experience of working with the iconic music director.

She said, “A.R. Rahman coming on board to design the score of the series was like an endorsement to the relevance and urgency of exploring this case. Working with Rahman Sir on ‘House of secrets’ has been an extremely enriching experience for me as a filmmaker. It’s such a joy when you find a collaboration that not only elevates the storytelling but also teaches you many lessons along the way.”

“I think the music that Rahman Sir scored has given the series not just a mood, but also an enormous emotional depth. I find it very difficult to be articulate about music – it’s emotional, a feeling. And yet he would understand and translate it into stirring soundscapes. Having a great artiste like him leave his footprints on our telling of this complex case has been an honour,” Leena further added.

Releasing on October 8, ‘House of Secrets: The Burari Deaths’ shows different stages of the investigation, bringing forth striking and unexpected revelations.

Siddharth shares cryptic post after Samantha, Naga Chaitanya’s separation news

Actor Siddharth shared a cryptic post on social media on “cheaters” after actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Naga Chaitanya announced their separation.

Siddharth’s post talked about cheaters. He took to Twitter and wrote: “One of the first lessons I learnt from a teacher in school… ‘Cheaters never prosper’. What’s yours?”

Siddharth and Samantha were reportedly in a relationship in 2013. The two never confirmed the same.

However, the cryptic note did not go down well with many social media users.

One wrote: “Have you heard of the phrase ‘below the belt’ @Actor_Siddharth? I really wish that your teacher had taught you that. It’s okay though. How long could you have masqueraded as a supposedly progressive person and a #feminist! Forget Samantha, I don’t think anyone should be with you.”

“That’s why she prospered more than you and Chaitanya Akkineni. #ChaySam,” said another.

One netizen said: “Age doesn’t define Maturity Clearly.”

A user tagged the tweet as “Such a low”.

Samantha Ruth Prabhu Akkineni and Naga Chaitanya, son of Telugu superstar Nagarjuna, ended weeks of speculation and announced their separation after four years of marriage on October 2.

The couple, popularly known as ChaySam, confirmed the news in an official statement from Naga Chaitanya, shared by Samantha.

They requested their fans and media to allow them privacy.

Samantha and Naga Chaitanya got married in Goa in 2017.

The couple, popularly known as ChaySam, confirmed the news in an official statement from Naga Chaitanya, shared by Samantha, which they released on Saturday. They requested their fans and media to allow them privacy.

In the statement addressed to “our well-wishers”, Naga Chaitanya said: “After much deliberation and thought, Sam and I have decided to part ways as husband and wife to pursue our own paths. We are fortunate to have a friendship of over a decade that was the very core of our relationship which we believe will always hold a special bond between us.”

The couple were first seen together in Gautham Menon’s iconic 2010 Telugu movie, ‘Ye Maaya Chesave’.

Naga Chaitanya added in the shared statement: “We request our fans, well-wishers and the media to support us during this difficult time and give us the privacy we need to move on. Thanking you for your support.”

The buzz about the marriage disintegrating had intensified last month after Samantha dropped ‘Akkineni’ from her name on her Twitter account, but neither addressed the rumours head-on. Samantha and Naga Chaitanya got married in Goa in 2017.
