Seema Sajdeh opens up about divorce from Sohail Khan, reveals cheating isn’t a deal-breaker for her: ‘Depends on what kind of affair…’ | Bollywood News

Seema Sajdeh, best known for appearing on the Netflix reality show Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives, separated from actor-filmmaker Sohail Khan in 2022. Their divorce was addressed on the show, and Seema is now seeing someone else. In a new interview, she said that her sons are her priority, as she opened up about the conditioning that she had to unlearn to make peace with her decision to separate from Sohail. Seema admitted that there was a time when she’d blame everything on him, but said that divorce can often be harder for men because women are equipped to deal with emotional upheaval more effectively. In an interview with Janice Sequeira, she said, “When you’re in a marriage where you’re constantly bickering and at each other, you’re not giving your 100% to your kids also. They’re losing out. Seeing this irritable parent in the house, the atmosphere is tense, you can literally cut it with a knife because it’s so thick.” Seema also said that situations like this usually arise from a cumulative experience, and …

Aamir Khan thought someone was ‘playing a prank’ on him when he got a script called ‘The Falling’ during Mangal Pandey’s shoot | Bollywood News

There are few producers in Hindi cinema with an eye as sharp as Aamir Khan’s. Known for backing unconventional films, his production slate includes titles like, Dhobi Ghat, Delhi Belly, Talaash: The Answer Lies Within, and Secret Superstar. Each distinct in tone and subject. Among these, Peepli Live stands out as a political satire that took on the farmer crisis, rising suicides, and the media circus surrounding them. It marked the directorial debut of Anusha Rizvi and earned both critical acclaim and cult status. But as Aamir recently revealed on his new YouTube channel, Aamir Khan Talkies, the film almost didn’t get made. While shooting Mangal Pandey, which was then titled The Rising, Aamir received an unexpected email from Anusha — then a journalist — with a script attached, titled The Falling. Amused by the coincidence in titles, he initially ignored it. “I thought somebody was playing a prank,” he said in a behind-the-scenes video. However, Rizvi persisted. “There was some sincerity in her mails, which made me say yes to listening to the story.” …

Scroll down to know the names of these films and why the actor rejected them. Body of Lies (Release Year – 2008) The first Ridley Scott movie that Irrfan Khan turned down was the action thriller ‘Body of Lies’.

The underlying plot of Body of Lies follows a CIA operative (Leonardo DiCaprio) stationed in the Middle East …

Babil Khan’s new film Logout is about the dangers of social media addiction, greed for followers and its impact on one’s mind. While the actor plays the role of a desperate influencer, dying to reach 10 million followers, the real Babil Khan is nothing like it.
