Archana Puran Singh reveals why she hid her marriage for 4 years

-
Indian actress and television personality Archana Puran Singh has revealed that she kept her marriage to actor Parmeet Sethi a secret for nearly four years, citing industry pressures that once discouraged married women from pursuing acting careers. Archana, known for her work in several iconic Bollywood films, married Parmeet Sethi in 1992. However, she chose not to make the marriage public at the time. Speaking recently, the actress said that during that phase in the film industry, marriage was often seen as a setback for female actors, leading to fewer opportunities. She described this mindset as a “nonsense trend” and said it played a major role in her decision to keep her marital status private while continuing to work. She also shared that the secrecy around the marriage was influenced by several personal and social challenges. Parmeet was younger than her, which contributed to resistance from family members, and there was disapproval from both sides regarding the relationship. ...

Hema Malini takes holy dip at Maha Kumbh, laughs at Baba Ramdev's hair flip

-

Actor and Parliamentarian Hema Malini participated in the Maha Kumbh in Prayagraj earlier this week, taking a dip in the holy Triveni Sangam on the occasion of Mauni Amavasya. A video from the event has surfaced on social media, showing Hema Malini sharing a light moment as she laughs heartily at the antics of yoga guru Baba Ramdev.

The video captures a fun moment with several VIPs and devotees taking dips in the holy river, including Hema Malini. When it's Baba Ramdev's turn, someone unties his long hair, and as he flips it, his wet locks end up smacking people behind him—twice! Hema Malini can't help but burst into laughter at the amusing sight. It's definitely a light-hearted moment amidst the sacred rituals.

Alongside Hema Malini, several other celebrities participated in the grand Maha Kumbh in Prayagraj, including Sunil Grover, Kabir Khan, Guru Randhawa, Avinash Tiwary, Mamta Kulkarni, and Anupam Kher. The event saw numerous devotees and VIPs taking part in the holy rituals.

The Maha Kumbh, which began on January 13, will continue until February 26. Key upcoming 'snan' dates include February 3 (Basant Panchami—Third Shahi Snan), February 12 (Maghi Purnima), and February 26 (Maha Shivaratri). These significant dates will mark major rituals at the grand religious gathering.

Hema Malini shared her joy about participating in the Maha Kumb, “It is my good fortune that I got the opportunity to take a 'snan' on this auspicious day.”

“Renowned actress and Member of Parliament from Mathura (Uttar Pradesh), Hema Malini, held a spiritual meeting with Junapeethadhishwar Mahamandaleshwar Acharya Swami Avdheshanand Giri Ji Maharaj, also known as 'Pujya Prabhushri Ji' at the Prabhu Premi Sangh Kumbh Camp in Prayagraj and received his blessings,” the UP government said in a brief statement. The UP government also shared a couple of pictures of Malini with the seer.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah visited the Maha Kumbh on Monday with his family, where he met Junapeethadhishwar Mahamandaleshwar Acharya Swami Avdheshanand Giri Ji Maharaj along with other seers. On the same day, 1.55 crore devotees took a holy dip at the Kumbh, bringing the total number of pilgrims who have participated to over 14.76 crore, according to the government.

The Miracle Club review – Maggie Smith can’t save this rocky road trip to Lourdes

-
Laura Linney is upstaged by older co-stars Smith and Kathy Bates in this sentimental tale about a group of Dublin women who go on a spiritual journey together Who’s up for a golden-hued heartwarmer set in 60s Ireland starring Kathy Bates and Maggie Smith about women with secret fears and dreams going on a church trip to Lourdes and finally finding the real miracle is their new compassion for each other? The answer to this question could well have been … me. I have a liking for a gentle tale and there is nothing necessarily wrong with, just occasionally, showing Ireland and the church of this period with something other than outrage and horror. But The Miracle Club does not at any time, to use a discredited metaphor, throw away its crutches and walk. And it’s painful to note that this is largely because of the way film can’t convincingly use that estimable actor Laura Linney in a central role. She is upstaged by the older, fruitier performances and doesn’t hold her own with a more seri...
