"One Of Us Slipped Away": Actor Remembers Nana Patekar With Old Pics

Days after Nana Patekar's death, old friend and actor Susmita Mukherjee remembered him with a soul-stirring tribute. Sharing pictures  from Deepti Naval's birthday party on 3rd of February, 1991, Sushmita mused over the lost time, innocence and moments that became intrinsically attached with persons who were part of the memory.  "Just the four of us. Wine, music, laughter, and even a piano. A little world of our own, untouched by the complexities of life that lay ahead. "And then, one of us slipped away. We mourned not just the person we had lost, but also the absence of what once was - the moments, the togetherness, the innocence, and a time we could never return to," wrote Susmita. Susmita recalled the bygone time when a dear friend of 38 years sent her a bunch of photographs. "The memories were hazy, the details blurred by time. But the moment I looked at those photographs, something magical happened. They awakened a part of my brain where memor...

Exclusive: Tamannaah On Aaj Ki Raat And Its Role In Stree 2's Success

Tamannaah Bhatia is basking in the success of her latest film, Sikandar Ka Muqaddar. The Netflix project also features Avinash Tiwary and Jimmy Sheirgill in pivotal roles. Before her stellar performance in the crime drama, Tamannaah had the nation grooving to the beats of Stree 2's song Aaj Ki Raat. The actress, along with her Sikandar Ka Muqaddar co-stars, sat down for a chat with NDTV's Arun Singh. During the discussion, Tamannaah was asked if she believes her special appearance in Stree 2's song contributed to its commercial success. She replied, “I think it did. I find it really awkward to admit it.” When further asked if her song deserves credit for the blockbuster's revenue, Tamannaah humorously responded, “Itna pyaar mil gaya, aur kya credit karenge? [It got so much love, what more credit do I need?] Then, Dinu sir (producer Dinesh Vijan) will have to send me a paycheck from what was earned.”

Talking about the success of Aaj Ki Raat, Tamannaah Bhatia added, “What really worked for Aaj Ki Raat was that, when an actor tries to attempt a song and keeps a character in mind and performance of the song, it comes across quite differently. It is also about how your gaze is on the song. I never looked at just the glamour quotient of it. But I was channelling that.”

During the same discussion Avinash Tiwary, who played the role of Sikandar Sharma in Sikandar Ka Muqaddar, recalled his first meeting with Tamannaah Bhatia. The actor said, “I met Tamannaah for the first time in Agra during the reading of the film. We straight up started rehearsing. On our second day of rehearsal, we were in tune with our characters and then it became very easy and smooth.”  

In addition to Avinash Tiwary, Jimmy Sheirgill and Tamannaah Bhatia, Sikandar Ka Muqaddar also features Divya Dutta and Rajiv Mehta in important roles. The film, directed by Neeraj Pandey, was released on Netflix on November 29. The movie marks the fourth collaboration between director Neeraj Pandey and Jimmy Sheirgill after A Wednesday, Special 26 and Auron Mein Kahan Dum Tha.

Multi-Decade Runway To Full Stack Control: Inside Lenskart's Global Playbook

Eyewear unicorn Lenskart is doubling down on rapid volume expansion and end-to-end supply chain integration, confident that a massive structural penetration deficit in emerging markets offers a multi-decade growth runway. Speaking at the Jefferies India Forum 2026, the eyewear's Founder and Chief Executive Officer Peyush Bansal reiterated that the company's priority remains solving vision correction at scale rather than optimizing for short-term profitability.
