Bigg Boss 18 finale is inching closer. Four days ahead of the big finale of the Salman Khan-hosted show, contestant Shilpa Shirodkar has been evicted. Shilpa's eviction came as an unexpected twist in today's episode, seemingly reuniting her with her two "sons" of the house, Karan and Vivian. While Karan Veer Mehra gifted her a gold medal, Vivian, who had been keeping his distance from her for a while, broke down in tears and hugged her before she left the house. Chum Darang looked devastated by the news of Shilpa's eviction and was seen crying inconsolably as she shared a hug with Shilpa. During her journey in the house, Shilpa was particularly close with co-contestants Karan Veer Mehra and Vivian DSena. However, this bond also became an obstacle for her in creating an unique identity for herself on the show. Her connection with Karan and Vivian was central to her game but she struggled to show a distinctive personality. Fans hoped to see her make bold, independent decisions, yet that spark never truly ignited. One of the season’s most talked-about moments was Shilpa nominating Karan Veer Mehra, despite claiming to be one of his closest allies. During the high-stakes Time God task, her decision to back Vivian over Karan left fans disappointed and questioning her loyalty. Social media was abuzz with criticism and her perceived betrayal may have alienated a significant portion of her supporters.

What Amar Upadhyay said about Ram Kapoor's comment on him Responding to Ram Kapoor's comments, Upadhyay told Telly TV that he has not watched the interview but was informed about his comment during a media interaction. “I thought they were just spreading rumors. My philosophy in life is that I don’t care what people say or think about me. I don’t pay attention to negative comments or podcasts that mention me in a negative light. I have a very positive mindset, and I know that I am an extremely hardworking person." Amar said adding that he does not stay home or more that two-four days and keeps working to keep his anxiety at bay. The actor added, “I’m not going to leave TV, and I won’t leave it because television has given me constant work."

15 January,2025 06:05 PM IST | Mumbai | mid-day online correspondent"Daya darwaza thod do," is a dialogue that is forever etched in our minds. For almost 21 years, the cast and crew of CID have been entertaining the audience. In 2018, when the crime show went off-air, fans complained and requested to bring ACP Pradhyuman (Shivaji Satam), Daya (Dayanand Shetty) and Abhijeet (Aditya Srivastava) back on the small screen. Six years later, the makers heeded fans’ demands. Shetty and Srivastava caught up with mid-day on the set to discuss the crime show, the plots they’ve upgraded, and plans to connect with GenZ while keeping the authenticity and quirks of the show intact. Edited excerpts from the interview. What was it like when you learnt that the show is shutting down in 2018 and starting again in 2024? Aditya Srivastava: When we came to know that the show is shutting down, it was shocking. It has been a long journey with the CID unit, and we’ve operated like a family for over 20 years. We had see each other’s faces as soon as we woke up, so when that was getting over, it disappointed us. When we learnt that the show is coming back in 2024, we couldn’t believe it until we reached the set and the camera began rolling. The six-year gap felt like it never happened. Dayanand Shetty: Between 2016 and 2018, the show changed its timings a lot, so we had an intuition that something was happening with it. We were disappointed when the call was finally taken in 2018. While we felt bad about it, it felt worse knowing that the unit would suffer. They’ve been isolated from the rest of the industry for 21 years while doing this show. We worried about what would happen to them. We would still be able to manage and find other work, but for them to acclimatise with another unit would take time. We did feel that within six months or a maximum of a year, the show would be back, because people still liked the show; they wanted it back. A lot of personalities supported the show. So we were positive that CID would come back, but it didn’t happen until now. Did you ever fear about figuring out what to do next? AS: No, not really. As an actor, I’ve looked at CID as a job. During that time, I added about 20 to 25 films to my career graph. I never even thought of or felt fear. I believe it is a journey, and we’ve been lucky. I think it’s the grace of the audience that we’ve managed to come back. I have always picked up opportunities that came my way. I don’t think too far ahead; that’s my attitude. What was the highest point in your career in these six years? DS: COVID. I cannot forget those two years at home where I enjoyed and pampered myself. Those two years were almost the best time of my life. After that, when work came, I felt [reluctant] to go out again. The skies were clear, birds were coming home, I had started seeing sparrows, I had some good moments at that time. Did you wish to make any changes in CID’s new season? AS: The writers’ team was discussing this. In the six-year break, people have seen a lot of content, and the audience has upgraded their content. I believe we should upgrade the presentation. The GenZ terms have also been included in this season. As an actor, we try to get ready on all aspects. In TV, you get the script in the morning, you have to prepare and deliver, so we intend to keep doing that to the best of our ability. The show does look more glossy now. Have there been any changes in the characters of Daya and Abhijeet? AS: The show has been going on 20–21 years. As actors, we try to change our approach, which is sometimes possible because of the story. Sometimes the change is action-wise or in relationships [within the show]. Of course, doing one character for so long is challenging for any actor, but we try to keep it different. If we have questioned someone in the previous episode, we change the attitude the next time, although it is very difficult because of the exposure the show has been getting. We make small changes as actors. DS: These characters are embedded in people’s minds; that is why the show was brought back. The characters are popular for certain things in the show, like kids liked seeing ACP Pradhyuman moving his eyebrows and questioning criminals, so those things will still remain. What we can improvise is the technicality through the cameras. We had outdated cameras before, and in these six years, we’ve upgraded those. We use gimbal cameras that can go anywhere. Of course, we have to improve on the script too. It cannot be that we solve all the crimes by triangulating the cell phone connection. The audience will not enjoy the simplicity and predictability of these things. We’ve used AI in the coming episodes. CID is like a thali; you have to have comedy, action, emotion and drama. Was it difficult to get back into character after the gap? AS: It was only difficult to get everyone back together because everyone had gotten busy with their respective lives. However, once we reached the set, saw the same faces and camera, we were charged. We didn’t even realise [that there was a gap]. How did you realise that fans missed CID? AS: The show had shut down, but wherever we travelled, people would approach us and tell us that they watched our show just a day before. A lot of people didn’t realise that the show had gone off-air. Maybe they caught up with the shows online or the repeat telecast of episodes. Or they watched it on the apps. So, according to them, the show was still going on. DS: Recently, I was standing in a queue for something. Before me was a family who had a four-year-old child with them. The father turned to me and said that his kid is a big fan of Daya. I was wondering if they were trying to fool me. How can a four-year-old child be a fan of a character who has been off-air for six years? The kid aggressively turned to me and said, “Me CID Bagto.” I was surprised. I realised they were watching the old episodes on YouTube or SonyLIV. It felt nice to know that even though the show is off-air, we were still relevant. Of course, ardent fans complained, saying they’ve seen the old episodes 25 times, and demanded new ones. How long is the new CID going to run for? DS: [Maybe till] a four-year-old child becomes 40 years old. We may do this in our dentures too [laughs]. What have you learnt about yourselves through CID? AS: As an actor, we are lucky to get a show that the audience loved. The aim of any actor is to have a connection with the audience, and they get accepted. We got that from this show. Other than that, it is like a job for me. DS: I came to know that I am a good human being [laughs]. For 21 years, we’ve worked with one team. The people are so good, we carry a middle-class attitude in food to how we manage everything. There are no stars on set; everyone is only an actor. People outside consider us as something big, but on set, we are like everybody else. We don’t even want to know about our star status; we are the labour kind of actors who come at 9 am and leave by 10 in the evening. People are surprised to see us being down to earth. AS: It’s because our seniors have created that atmosphere. Satam sir [74], belongs to theatre and has done a lot of work. We’ve always looked up to him. He doesn’t throw any tantrums; he is extremely devoted. So when new actors come on set, they get inspired. If Satam sir is not asking for pack-up [despite his age], how can anyone else ask for it? It’s the culture we’ve created on set. Previously, you’ve written a few episodes. Can we expect some in this season too? DS: I can’t write. I can only visualise a story and create a concept. And that happens randomly and after two days, it fizzles out. So, I call Christabelle D’Souza, who is a creative on the show, to discuss a story. She then develops on it. The makers are kind enough to give me credit, but I am not a writer. Do you feel that your characters on CID overshadow your other work? DS: It is a badge of honour for us. AS: Sometimes, when I meet people who’ve seen me in Satya, Black Friday, Super 30, or Bhakshak [they recognise me]. TV audiences recognise our CID characters, and the reach of the show is quite vast.
15 January,2025 03:36 PM IST | Mumbai | Letty Mariam AbrahamThings are not well for the popular television actor Arjun Bijlani as his mother’s health has taken a serious turn. Hospitalized a couple of days back, she has now been admitted to the ICU at Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital, Mumbai. She has been shifted to the ICU after her oxygen levels dropped. Her health update has left the family deeply concerned. When Arjun Bijlani was questioned regarding his mother's condition, the actor was quoted saying, “My mom is in the ICU as her oxygen levels have dropped. I just want her to get better soon.” He even took to his official Instagram stories and dropped a video of her mother from the hospital. The video shows him holding her mother's hand during her road to recovery. Adding to the trouble, Arjun Bijlani's wife, Neha Swami, and son, Ayaan were also reported to be under the weather recently. The family has been facing health issues ever since returning from their recent vacation to celebrate New Year.

15 January,2025 08:01 AM IST | Mumbai | IANSToday was the second part of the Bigg Boss press meet, and yet again, all the top 7 contestants of Bigg Boss 18, including Rajat Dalal, Shilpa Shirodkar, Avinash Mishra, Karan Veer Mehra, Vivian Dsena, Eisha Singh, and Chum Darang, faced tough questions. While Avinash and Eisha were questioned for their betrayal of Vivian, Chum was asked if Karan was just a ladder to reach the final. Karan, too, was not spared from the media’s wrath and was called out for giving certificates to the housemates. Meanwhile, Rajat was grilled for his violent nature and aggressive behavior. Media grilled Vivian Dsena The heat turned up when Vivian's loyalty was scrutinized. Once a friend of Karan for over a decade, his choice to ally with Karan's rival, Avinash Mishra, raised eyebrows. His condemnation of Karan as a "ladies' man" and a "non-A-lister" sparked accusations of betrayal, leaving everyone questioning the depth of their 12-year friendship. Vivian was also accused of playing the victim card following his fallout with Chum Darang, a move seen by some as a strategy rather than genuine hurt. Spotlight on Avinash Mishra Avinash has always been good friends with Eisha Singh and Alice Kaushik. Later, he was also seen building a bond with Vivian Dsena. However, he has had moments where he spoke against Vivian, expressed jealousy, among other things. He was asked about his stance on his friendship with Vivian and why he made comments like Vivian doesn’t deserve to be there. The media round wasn’t kind to Avinash as he was put under the spotlight multiple times, and not for good reasons. Eisha Singh & Rajat Dalal on radar Eisha Singh also faced tough questions about her journey in the house. Accusations flew that she leaned heavily on the support of others rather than standing on her own, painting her as more of a gossip monger than a player. Rajat wasn’t spared either, as he was questioned on whether he’s relying solely on external bonds to claim victory. He fired back, challenging the notion by questioning why anyone would support him outside if he hadn’t built solid connections within the house. Finally, Karan Veer Mehra was called out for assuming the role of moral judge, with the media demanding to know who granted him the authority to issue character verdicts on his fellow contestants.

The press grilled the Top 7 contestants of Bigg Boss Season 18. While the spotlight was on Vivian Dsena, Rajat Dalal was also among those who answered the fiery questions posed by the media. The media tried to explain to Vivian how Avinash Mishra and Eisha Singh weren't his real friends. Rajat Dalal reacts to aggressive behaviour against Karan Veer While everyone was put on the centre stage, Mid-Day asked some fiery questions to Rajat Dalal and Avinash Mishra.

Further, he stated that 'agar mere sath Kashish bhejte to mundan bhi ho sakta tha'. Further, we asked Avinash Mishra about his double standards. When asked how he sits with Karan and never supports Vivian, and then tells an entirely different story to him, Avinash shared, "Jab bhi hum baithe hain, humne brain battle hi kiya hai and Vivian ko support kiya hai."

14 January,2025 12:50 AM IST | Mumbai | mid-day online correspondentHina Khan, who has been battling third-stage breast cancer, has been an inspiration for many. During her battle against cancer, she has not let her smile fade away. Now, the actress is all set to make a comeback to the screen with her upcoming show Grihalaxmi, co-starring Chunky Panday. Ahead of the show's release, Hina got into a conversation with us at Mid-Day and talked about her battle against cancer. View this post on Instagram A post shared by mid-day (@middayindia) Maintaining her beautiful smile, Hina talked about how she stayed positive in the toughest of times. The actress shared, “What’s written cannot be changed. I had to go through this pain, but I will give my 100%. I will not cry, I will not be negative, and I will only and only talk positively.” It wasn’t that simple- Hina Khan When asked if she ever gets tired of answering questions about her diagnosis, Hina Khan said, “On the contrary, it has been the opposite for me. I haven’t spoken much about it, but I will speak when the time comes. I want to talk about my journey; I want to tell people what I went through. People don’t know, as of now, what I have been through, what I am going through, or what’s going to happen next—anything. Don’t worry, everything is fine and under control, but people don’t know. It wasn’t as simple as ‘Oh, something happened? Okay, it will be fixed.’ No, it wasn’t that simple.” She further continued and shared that she wants to open up about her journey and wishes to tell people what happened to her, something that can happen to anyone. Hina wishes to make people aware, and she has no shame in sharing her journey. Further elaborating on the same question, she added, “As for the question of ‘I don’t want to talk about it,’ it’s actually the opposite for me. Whoever came home to meet me or even spoke to me on the phone—they would get tired, but I would keep talking.” Hina recalled her meeting with Salman Khan Moving forward, she recalled her meeting with Salman Khan during one of the Weekend Ka Vaar episodes of Bigg Boss 18. Hina stated, “Even the moment I met Salman, I started talking. I forgot that he is Salman Khan and that he might already know about it, but I told him everything too—‘You’ve done this, right? You’ve had that done?’ And he was like, ‘Yes, yes, Hina, I’ve done it; my whole family has done it.’” She further concluded the chat by sharing, “My intention is that after everything I’ve been through, I don’t want anyone else to go through it. Whatever information I have, I want to share it all. Forget about whether someone’s life is saved or not—what I want is to save them from the kind of pain I’ve experienced. That’s what I want. So, I will come out, and I will tell my side of the story.”

As there are still many incredible OVERS left to deliver for my country, my team, and for my fans!!! While I am proud to be a sportsman, I am also a Son, a Brother, and a Friend. I understand the curiosity surrounding recent events, particularly about my personal life. However, I have noticed certain social media posts speculating on matters that may or may not be true."

What’s truly upsetting is the baseless writing, devoid of fact- checking, and the character assassination of my reputation by faceless trolls spreading hate. I’ve worked hard for years to build my name and integrity. My silence is not a sign of weakness; but of strength. While negativity spreads easily online, it takes courage and compassion to uplift others. I choose to focus on my truth and move forward, holding onto my values. The truth stands tall without the need for justification. Om Namah Shivaay."
