Producer Rahul Kumar Tewary talks about his popular show Udne Ki Aasha

Mumbai, 30 April 2024 (UTN). Rahul Kumar Tewary, whose brand new show Udne Ki Aasha is being loved by all on TV, shares the feedback he has been getting after a successful launch. "It started with a positive response from everyone, including industry friends and critics. Now, after 6 weeks, even the viewers are liking the show. The ratings are good and stable even during the IPL. That’s a big relief. Now we are hoping that the ratings will go up in the near future." He also adds, "The best compliment I have got so far is that the show is very relatable and real to the middle-class households; it resonates with them. We embarked to do realistic shows, and I think we have kind of achieved that. And we will continue doing that.” Sharing about what we can expect from the show, Rahul says, “Sachin and Sailee just got into a marriage which they did not want.   So two people who never wanted to get married in the first place will start living under one roof. I think that is an interesting twist to the whole story.” Rahul also shares how he is enjoying the journey as a maker. He says, “It’s a very different setup, but I am enjoying the new journey. After so many shows which I have made, this show feels like the first, and that's why I am enjoying the whole process. It’s a very good feeling.”   On asking about the future of Rahul Kumar Tewary Production, he says, "We are in discussion with other broadcasters. Our new stories have gone out, and we will be producing more quality shows in the future."The show features Neha Harsora and Kanwar Dhillon in lead roles.   Mumbai-Reporter,( Hitesh Jain ).

Daily soaps are a blessing: Seerat Kapoor

Mumbai, 30 April 2024 (UTN). Seerat Kapoor, who is currently seen as Mannat in Prateek Sharma’s Studio LSD’s Rabb Se Hai Dua, believes that daily soaps are a blessing for any actor because they give them instant fame and make them a household name. She said, “I believe that for an actor, daily soaps are a blessing. Not only because of the regular income but also because of the things you learn during this time. The kind bonds you create and the kind relationship that you build with the audience are precious.”   However, she agrees that working around the clock can sometimes take a toll on an actor’s health, but she believes a positive approach, a healthy diet, and proper rest can be helpful. “The daily grind of daily soaps does put a strain on our health, especially because we don’t get the time to exercise daily. And with the changing weather, we have to eat right, drink a lot of water, and take proper rest. I try and walk on the sets in between my takes just to keep my body in rhythm,” Seerat said.   But what about night shoots? “We are lucky that we haven’t had many night shoots in this show yet; it would be much more difficult for me as I am not a night owl. Even in my personal life, I prefer to go to bed on time,” she said.   Seerat also shared that daily soap is a full-time job and sometimes getting holidays is quite tricky, but she is happy to be working with some amazing co-actors who make it all worthwhile. Daily soap is pretty hectic since it’s a 12 hour work schedule, but when you love your work so much, you find it exciting and challenging. We spend more than half of our day at the shoot, so it is a blessing to have family-like coworkers who make everything easier,” she said.   Mumbai-Reporter,( Hitesh Jain ).

एक्ट्रेस सीरत कपूर का कहना है कि "साउथ एक्ट्रेस के रूप में पहचाने जाने के चलते हिंदी सिनेमा में प्रोजेक्ट के ऑफर्स मिलने में परेशानियां हुई है

मुंबई, 30 अप्रैल 2024 (UTN)। एक्ट्रेस ने हिंदी सिनेमा में खुद को स्थापित करने में आ रही कठिनाइयों के बारे में बात की। रणबीर कपूर स्टारर फिल्म 'रॉकस्टार' में असिस्टेंट कोरियोग्राफर के रूप में सिनेमा में अपनी जर्नी शुरू करने वाली सीरत ने कहा, "कई लोग मुझे साउथ एक्ट्रेस के रूप में जानते हैं और मुझे लगता है कि कभी-कभी यह बॉलीवुड में ऑफर्स मिलने के बीच रूकावटें पैदा करता है।   दर्शकों के लिए यह सोचना आसान है कि अगर आप साउथ इंडियन इंडस्ट्री में अच्छा कर रहे हैं तो आपको बॉलीवुड में आसानी से काम मिल सकता है। हालांकि, असल बात यह है कि बॉलीवुड में लीड रोल के लिए कोई भी प्रोजेक्ट पाने की प्रक्रिया बहुत चुनौतीपूर्ण है।'' सीरत और भी बॉलीवुड फिल्में करने की इच्छुक हैं।    उन्होंने कहा, ''मुझे उम्मीद है कि मैं अपने लाइफटाइम में कम से कम एक बार बॉलीवुड एक्टर्स के साथ काम करूंगी।'' उन्होंने कहा कि तेलुगु सिनेमा से मेरा नाता हमेशा रहेगा। उन्होंने कहा, "टॉलीवुड ने मुझे वह सब कुछ दिया है जो आज मेरे पास है और मैं इसे पीछे नहीं छोड़ना चाहती। यहीं से मैंने शुरुआत की और यह हमेशा मेरे दिल के करीब रहेगा।" सीरत ने कई तेलुगु फिल्मों में काम किया है, जैसे 'रन राजा रन', 'टाइगर', 'राजू गरी गांधी 2', 'ओक्का क्षणम' और 'मां विंता गाधा विनुमा' आदि। 2022 में, उन्होंने तुषार कपूर के साथ 'मारीच' के साथ हिंदी सिनेमा में अपनी शुरुआत की।   मुंबई-रिपोर्टर,(हितेश जैन)।

Jason Tham speaks about his next series Ranneeti: Balakot & Beyond; “This show is going to be a wild ride from start to finish with a-lot of heart-stopping moments

Mumbai, 01 May 2024 (UTN). Actor Jason Tham will be next seen in Ranneeti: Balakot & Beyond, he is portraying the role of special agent Victor in the series. Jason says, "What was special about Victor's role was that he got to witness the brain behind the operation Balakot and the Pulwama attack. From the team formation, to the idea of the operation, the decision taken in the war room to the final execution - He was not only actively involved but contributed to the success of the operation.” Sharing about his preparation for the role he adds,”I was portraying a special agent who was undercover for 3 years with Maoists. Someone who had killed 7 Maoists in one night. Victor is a cold blooded killer and joined the military intelligence unit under Kashyap’s (Jimmy Shergill) team. To execute this role I had put on some muscle weight which included regular workouts and a special diet.   We have seen enough series and films on Balatkot and Pulwama attacks already, how is this series going to be different from the rest? When asked Jason says, "Nowadays, There are a lot of remakes but what stands out is the director's vision of portraying the film. Our Director has captured the essence of the story and literally, brought it to life on screen. I was particularly impressed on my first day of shooting. Our director Santosh Singh had clearly instructed the cast that since it’s a war room sequence where everything will mostly be informative and verbal, he would like to achieve long, one take shots with super pacey dialogues so that it doesn’t break the flow. To achieve this we used to rehearse at least 5-8 times before the shot. This show is going to be a wild ride from start to finish. With a-lot of heart-stopping moments. I won’t say anything further, just Grab your popcorn because it’s going to be a roller coaster ride of emotions.   In the series Jimmy Shergill is playing an important role, incidentally Jason and Jimmy have shared screen earlier in the film Happy Phir Bhag Jayegi. Sharing more on their camaraderie Jason says, "With Jimmy sir we already had a bond. This show was no less, We bonded right away when we met on the set of Ranneeti. He's very humble without any attitude. I remember him helping me to give a different flavour to elevate the scene. I admire his thought process. He used to really go on about how I should post more videos on social media and make it viral. For which he literally took my phone and shot a reel for me. I really admire him as a friend and look up to him.   Sharing about his biggest take away from Ranneeti, Jason says,”We all know about the Pulwama attack and the Balakot air-strike, but no one knows what went behind the operation. I have been fortunate enough to be part of untapped information about the operation and I feel immense pride in being part of an event that will go down in history.   Mumbai-Reporter,( Hitesh Jain ).

Anuraadha Tewari opens up on how she solves writer’s blocks with travel

Mumbai, 01 May 2024 (UTN). Exploring a new place is something that helps writer-director Anuraadha Tewari break through writer’s block and move forward. Anuraadha, who has written the web series Dil Dosti Dilemma, Raisinghani vs Raisinghani, as well as films such as Fashion, Heroine  and Jail, adds that she loves to explore new places to gain inspiration. There are two kinds of writers' blocks, both of which block flow. One is the kind where you are exhausted and simply need a break and recharge. The other is when you have run out of ideas and need to reinvent. You need to feed your mind with new stimuli. So, I first figure out what kind of block it is and then simply choose a travel plan that suits the need.   If it's just a break then I go to a nature-driven, chill place and do largely nothing for just 2-3 days. That does the magic. But if it's a re-invention, then I plan a long holiday of at least 2 weeks. I go on what I call 'Civilization Exploring'. I go to a country with a deep culture. I study its people, its history, its architecture, its art, music, cinema, food, and its works. I do what I call 'art guzzling' ( e.g. my last tour of Italy that covered 9 cities). That cannot not rejuvenate you! More often than not, I find myself writing an entire script right there in days. The block disappears magically,” she says.   Talking about writers’ credits in projects today, she says that the process of displaying credits has changed the game today. “I think most people are getting the actual credit on screen now. There are contracts and agencies involved. and the SWA is very active. So, to mess with writer credits is not something people are going to do anymore. Having said that, I think the lines are still blurred. For example, the top OTT Platforms don't even have opening credits anymore. All writing and writers are often clubbed together as well. So the intern and the senior writer are all under one umbrella (though that hasn't happened to me). There is no credit yet for creating a show bible which is still the most important job in the creation as well as selling of the Show. And most of all, while the credits may be in place, writers often don't know what they are going to see on screen. How much of their work will be messed with, changed, shaped differently by other writers brought in etc. So, it may have the credit correctly but it may not be how you wrote it or what you wrote,” she says.   Meanwhile, talking about the kind of influence she has had on her work after working with directors like Mahesh Bhatt, Prakash Jha and Madhur Bhandarkar, she says, “Well, the 3 Directors are so vastly different from each other and such legends in their own right that one can't not be influenced by them. Each one has his own genre for heaven's sake! Naturally, I garnered different things from each one of them as I was working with each at different points and different life stages. While their film craft is distinct, I wouldn't say I imbibed any one because I have my style but I learnt at their feet in terms of storytelling for an Indian audience, remaining a fierce and unique voice in a crowded marketplace and surviving a tough Medium. I learnt mental strength from each and how to be a marathon runner in a long race. As for direction, well I have a Master's Degree in filmmaking, majored in direction from a film school ( Jamia Millia Islamia, Delhi) and my Diploma Film won the Gold. I have no business not Directing a Film :) I will however do it only when the filmmaking environment supports my vision.   Mumbai-Reporter,( Hitesh Jain ).

Gulfam Khan Hussain on International Dance Day: Dance is intoxicating for me!

Mumbai, 01 May 2024 (UTN). For some it lifts their mood, for others it’s a good way to workout; but when it comes to actress Gulfam Khan Hussain who will soon be seen in a web series called Waack Girls that will stream on Amazon Prime, dance is all this and more! She says that she loves to groove to the music of her choice. Dance is fun, someone once told me 'Dance like no one's looking' that's what I do. Dance uplifts my mood, it's intoxicating for me. Though I don't follow languages such as Latin or Spanish but still I love the numbers and of course all time favourites are Punjabi numbers like 'Ishq tera tadpave - Sukhbir',” she says.   In fact, she wants to train formally in dance as well. “I have no formal training in dancing though I'm tempted to take one now. I might soon start learning Bharatanatyam. I am an average dancer, say 6/10, and I would love to work on my skills,” she says.   She adds, “It is substantially important to have grace. However, I feel that actors are often blessed with the best choreographers. They are nothing short of magicians and they can make people with two feet groove beautifully.”   Talking about dance, she says that it will always be relevant to any platform on showbiz. “Dance numbers were and will always be an integral part of Hindi cinema and once in a while Hollywood too throws in a beautiful musical. In fact, I love to watch dance reels too! And sometimes, I make them,” she says.   Mumbai-Reporter,( Hitesh Jain ).
