Kunal Kemmu reflects on 'child actor curse' after Kalyug debut

Published by Webster

Actor Kunal Kemmu looked back at the challenges he faced while transitioning from a successful child artiste to a leading hero in Bollywood. The actor revealed that he was once told that child actors could never make it big or even land successfully, right when he made his debut with ‘Kalyug’. Speaking candidly with IANS, Kunal shared that he was subjected to stereotypes even before getting a fair chance as a lead actor. I feel that sometimes we come to judge too early. This same question was asked to me when ‘Kalyug’ was released, that child actors never become successful lead heroes. And I said, “This is a very wrong thing that you said.

The court said it hoped the couple would come to an agreement by the next date of hearing. Faced with a couple aged between 75 and 80 years fighting a legal battle against each other for alimony, the Allahabad High Court on Tuesday made a strong observation, saying it seemed that ‘kalyug’ (the age of darkness in Hinduism) has arrived.  Hearing a petition by the husband, Munesh Kumar Gupta of Aligarh, against a family court order in favour of his wife, Justice Saurabh Shyam Shamshery said the legal contest was a matter of concern and also tried to give advice to the couple.  Mr Gupta’s wife had demanded alimony from him and the family court had ruled in her favour. The man challenged the order and, issuing a notice to the wife, the high court said it hoped that they would come to an agreement by the next date of hearing.   Source link
