Launched by Amitabh Bachchan, Chandrachur Singh’s overnight stardom ended amid a Shah Rukh Khan film shoot

While destiny may seem like a myth to many, some lives make you wonder if it truly exists. How else do you explain the journey of a young man born into royalty, who dreamt of cracking the UPSC and becoming an Indian Foreign Service (IFS) officer, only to end up as one of Bollywood’s most promising stars of the late 1990s? This is the story of Chandrachur Singh. With Tere Mere Sapne and Maachis in 1996, Chandrachur became an overnight sensation. Critics hailed his performances, audiences embraced him, and the media even began comparing him to Amitabh Bachchan—partly because they shared the same birthday. But as quickly as stardom arrived, it slipped away. A devastating accident in 2000, coupled with a series of professional setbacks, altered the course of his career forever.

Why AAP launched fresh attack on Cong ahead of INDIA bloc’s big Delhi meet: Reason lies northwards

Why AAP launched fresh attack on Cong ahead of INDIA bloc’s big Delhi meet: Reason lies northwards

As the INDIA bloc’s partners gathered in Delhi on Monday, the Aam Aadmi Party not only stayed away from any new alignment with it, but also sharpened its attack on the Congress, the largest Opposition party that leads the alliance. Aam Aadmi Party convener Arvind Kejriwal with the party’s Punjab MLAs in New Delhi last month. (X/@ArvindKejriwal) AAP leader Somnath Bharti outright declared that the alliance — which the party formally exited in 2025 barring issue-based support thereafter — had “no future” so long as the Congress led it. “[Congress] said on one hand that we would fight as an alliance and back each other, but behind the scenes [it] appears to be with the BJP,” Bharti said. The INDIA bloc meeting at the heart of the attack was held in the national capital, but the fight that keeps the two parties estranged lies further northward in the immediate — in Punjab. Grouses cited in Capital Bharti’s stated grievances were specific to Delhi; he recalled that AAP and the Congress had split the capital’s seven …
