Actor Yami Gautam, known for choosing roles that challenge conventional Bollywood norms, recently opened up about the disciplined approach she follows when selecting projects.

Speaking about her decision-making process, Yami explained that her priority lies in the script itself, not the stature of her role. “I always tell my producers and whenever I’m reading a script, I say, for me, it’s not important that I’m leading or I’m the protagonist of the film or I’m headlining a film… of course, the role is really important for me but the script is the hero,” she said and added, “I work, if the film works, if the script works, and that has been my bible ever since I realised what it is that has worked for me.”

Yami emphasized that she prefers to read scripts directly, rather than relying on verbal narrations. “In fact, reading a script, not taking narrations… I don’t take narrations, no matter what, I will never say yes to a film basis narration. That’s just the way my process is,” she added.

The actor also spoke about her way of staying focused while filming. She takes a practical step to limit distractions, especially digital ones, during a shoot. According to Yami, she uninstalls non-essential apps from her phone during shoots to stay mentally invested in her character and the story.

This approach appears to have helped her stay consistent in her choices, often opting for content-first projects instead of following standard industry trends. While not always headlining big-budget productions, her filmography includes several critically acknowledged roles that reflect a clear pattern of decision-making based on storytelling strength.

By making deliberate choices and sticking to a process that works for her, Gautam wants to navigate the film industry on her own terms—balancing her preferences as an actor with the demands of modern filmmaking.

Global superstar Priyanka Chopra Jonas has yet again wowed audiences with her fierce performance in Heads of State, now streaming on Prime Video.

In a recent interview with Siddharth Kannan, Madhavan showered Priyanka with praise for not only taking on the lead role in a big-budget Hollywood action-comedy but doing so with effortless command. “She has nonchalantly gone there and taken the main lead in such a massive Hollywood project. She’s done action in the film, and I think half of the heroes in India would love to be in her position, playing a role in that kind of movie,” Madhavan said, pointing to her groundbreaking work in a genre historically dominated by male leads.

Priyanka plays Noel Bisset, a fearless MI6 operative who joins forces with characters played by John Cena and Idris Elba in this high-stakes, globe-trotting adventure. With razor-sharp delivery and unmatched screen presence, Priyanka has been praised across the board for not just holding her own—but stealing the show. “I’m a really big fan of how she is and how she’s carried herself. I am very proud of her,” R Madhavan added.

He also took to social media to share his thoughts on Heads of State, calling it a “victory that feels personal,” highlighting the significance of Priyanka’s achievement for South Asian representation in global cinema.

Comedian Zarna Garg echoed the sentiment in the comments of a fan post, writing, “Appreciate a brown dude who spills facts.” From Quantico to Citadel and now Heads of State, Priyanka Chopra Jonas continues to blaze trails for South Asian talent — with grace, grit, and undeniable global impact.

Taking to his social media, Pulkit shared a series of behind-the-scenes photos with co-stars Varun Sharma and Shalini Pandey, giving fans a glimpse into the fun, laughter, and madness that unfolded on set.

(emojis) #rahuketu… A big shoutout to all the (star emoji)’s – on and off camera,” Pulkit wrote, thanking director Vipul Vig, Zee Studios, and BLive Productions for bringing the project to life.

The film was shot across Mumbai and the picturesque landscapes of Manali, where the team braved extreme conditions to wrap up the schedule. Pulkit especially thanked every crew member who “walked and captured the highest peaks,” adding that the energy and chaos from the shoot would stay with them for a long time.

Directed by Vipul Vig, Rahu Ketu features an ensemble cast that includes Varun Sharma, Shalini Pandey, Chunky Panday, Piyush Mishra, Amit Sial, Manu Rishi Chadha, and Sumit Gulati, promising a laugh riot with a stellar line-up.

Apart from Rahu Ketu, Pulkit Samrat has a busy slate ahead. He is set to appear in Glory, where he takes on the role of a boxer for the first time in his career, and in the cross-cultural romantic-comedy Suswagatam Khushamadeed, further expanding his range as a versatile performer.

With Rahu Ketu wrapped and post-production underway, fans can expect a cosmic dose of comedy to hit theatres soon — and Pulkit promises it’ll be nothing short of planetary chaos!

Isha Koppikar is no stranger to fame, failure, and the fine balance between the two. In an inspiring and brutally honest message to the youth, the actress laid bare her philosophy on dreams, setbacks, mental health, and what it truly takes to stay the course in a world that demands perfection.

“It is very important to dream,” said Isha. “I always believe and say this. But without any plan, to dream like this is just an illusion. It exhausts you. It confuses you.” While she champions ambition, she emphasizes that the real journey begins after the lights dim and the applause fades. “Fairy tales, dream land are very good. We watch movies till the end. What happens after the end? This is real life. Reality is after the end. After the movies, after the end. Where you need patience, planning, mental strength,” added the actress.

Drawing from her own experiences in the industry, Isha reminds young dreamers that glamour often hides the grind. “You don’t get anything overnight. Rome was not built in a day. Rejection, discipline. A lot of time, a lot of efforts, passion. You need everything. But to run it you need a clear plan.”

And when that plan doesn’t work out? Isha doesn’t believe in quitting. “Change the plan. Don’t leave the goal,” she affirms. She also addressed burnout, calling it a sign to pause rather than a sign of weakness. “It’s okay to do nothing. Shah Rukh Khan has said ‘those who don’t do anything do wonders.’ Rest, reset, unlearn, learn, upgrade. Then come back. Stronger than before,” added the actress.

Mental peace, she insisted, trumps all as she went on to state, “The pressure is from society, from peers, from family, from friends, from yourself… but mental peace and strength are above everything.”

Isha also spoke about defining success on one’s own terms. “Every dream has a cost. If you are ready to pay the price then go all in. If not, no problem. No guilt. Your success should be your definition and not anyone else’s,” she maintained.

Her final message? “Life is not permanent. Don’t take it too seriously. Enjoy it… God has given us the power that we can do anything. Love you and God bless,” she said before signing off.
