Esha Gupta comes to the rescue of her female fan

Esha Gupta recently attended an event in Delhi, and much to her surprise,  a large crowd gathered around her and fans were eager to meet her. Apparently, the actress noticed a boy misbehave with a female fan. On seeing this, Esha immediately reprimanded him and left him with a warning. A source informs, “When Esha walked in, it got crowded and security guards were called to control the fans. And when she noticed a guy misbehaving with a girl, she immediately addressed the issue, and even told the security guards to ask him to leave the venue." 

Esha confirms, “It was shocking to see the guy misbehaving with a girl who was a part of the crowd. All hell broke loose when he was trying to touch her. I immediately caught hold of him and warned him to check his actions or else I’d have to hand him over to the cops. When women are able to live in a safe and secure environment, they can participate effectively in the economy and society. Every woman and girl should be able to live safely within the vicinity of her home and outside as well.”

School kids visit Kunal Bakshi on Shani set

Actor Kunal Bakshi, who is part of Siddharth Kumar Tewary’s Karmphaldata Shani, recently had some special guests on his set. Some kids from a nearby school visited a few days back. “It's the best feeling in the world when such sweet and small kids love you so much. Kids love is unconditional and they have a pure heart. So it's always a good feeling and I love kids to the core,” he says.

In fact, the visit made Kunal nostalgic. “It reminds me of my childhood days. I remember when I was a kid, our school took us to see some film shoot. I was very small but still, I was mesmerised by seeing the sets, lighting, costumes and everything related to shooting. I think that must be the first time I must have thought of becoming an actor,” he says.

He got some great feedback from his young guests too. “Kids love our show Karmphaldata Shani. They do hate my character in the show because I am full on negative but that's a compliment for me,” he says, adding,” The best compliment was one kid told me, ‘Uncle aap bahut gande ho, Shani ko hamesha pareshan karte rehte ho’.”

The actor too is fond of working in the show. “I love working in Karmphaldata Shani and it's very close to my heart. A big thanks to everyone for watching and loving our show so much...The ongoing track is very interesting. I am again going to create a big problem for Dhamini and Shani,” he says.

The curious case of Jai Harsh Vardhan Dhull’s name

Actor Jai Harsh Vardhan Dhull, who is playing the role of Vaayudev in Siddharth Kumar Tewary’s Mahakaali - Anth Hi Aarambh Hai, has a very different name. The actor says that he has always been fond of his name and has no issues with how long it is. “My parents gave me this name. They must have really loved it. And I feel your name describes your personality and as there's no shortcut to success so I don't think it should be applied to names as well,” he says. 

Ask him if the length of his name poses as a problem to him while signing cheques, and he says, “I never knew that we really have to use our whole name for signature and autographs. But I do sometimes, as my name is what describes me. On cheques, I shorten it.” 

And does he believe in numerology? “I believe in everything. I feel something might go wrong by not believing in it if it's true. And believing in anything increases the chances of something good happening and doesn't decrease anything that we have,” he says.
