I had Rs 10,000 in my account when I got married: Ayushmann

March 14, 2014

AyushmannNew Delhi, Mar 14: Actor Ayushmann Khurrana, who is playing a bankrupt lover in rom-com 'Bewakoofiyaan', said the film took him to his earlier days when he had only Rs 10,000 as savings for marriage.

The 29-year-old 'Vicky Donor' star said he eventually overcame his financial troubles by finding fame in showbiz.

"I have not struggled much in my career as my character (Mohit Chadhdha) in the film does. I did face rejections but was never bogged down. I only relate to the finacial insecurity part of my character. I remember when I married Tahira, I only had Rs 10,000 in my account.

"But I don't relate to the joblessness. I rather feel I was always at the right place at the right time," Ayushmann said. The actor married his childhood sweetheart Tahira before entering Bollywood.'

Bewakoofiyaan', also starring Sonam Kapoor and veteran actor Rishi Kapoor in prominent roles, hit theatres today. The love-story is set in the backdrop of recession.

"I am not nervous but I have always been excited about my every release. I am getting good response because it's a quirky and edgy film. It's a young film. I think effects of recession are still there as people continue to get pink slips. There is a lot of unemployment in India due to the recession," Ayushmann said.

Asked if Tahira has watched the film yet, the 'Pani Da' hitmaker said, "She is in Chandigarh now. I am planning to fly down to Chandigarh by evening and we are going to watch it. But she has read the script."

Ayushmann, who has teamed up with Sonam for the first time in the film, said he was initially sceptical about the onscreen chemistry with the fashionista.

"Before starting the shoot, I was sceptical about our onscreen pairing. She is fashion conscious and I am boy-next-door. But after meeting her I realised that she is a nice girl who is pure at heart. This is how I feel our chemistry rocked onscreen," he said.

Ayushmann is currently shooting for his next Yash Raj Films venture 'Dum Laga Ke Haisha' in Rishikesh and Haridwar. Directed by Maneesh Sharma, the story revoles around the life of a small town couple.

The actor also learnt Marathi for 'Bambai Fairytale', where he is playing eminent scientist Shivkar Bapuji Talpade.

Los Angeles, Jan 27: Lil Nas X, Lady Gaga, Beyonce and... Michelle Obama?

Yep.

The former first lady can now add Grammy winner to her resume, after snagging the award on music's biggest night for Best Spoken Word Album, for the audiobook of her memoir Becoming.

Her win on Sunday gives the Obama household its third Grammy: former president Barack Obama has already snagged two Grammys in the same category for his books.

She faced an eccentric group of rivals that included Michael Diamond and Adam Horovitz of the Beastie Boys for Beastie Boys Book and John Waters, the director-performer known for his transgressive cult films, for Mr. Know-It-All.

 Released in late 2018, Becoming saw the former first lady slam U.S. president Donald Trump for questioning her husband's citizenship and promoting the notion that he was born abroad.

"The whole [birther] thing was crazy and mean-spirited, of course, its underlying bigotry and xenophobia hardly concealed," Obama wrote.

America's first black first lady also dug into her personal life in her book, expounding on issues including a miscarriage, using in-vitro fertilization to conceive her daughters and marriage counseling.

New Delhi, Jul 24: With more than 50 movies under her credits and being one of the few actors from Bollywood to make a strong imprint in Hollywood, actor Priyanka Chopra started it all by winning Miss India 2000 pageant.

Chopra who is currently celebrating the completion of 20 years in the entertainment industry, on Friday looked back and reacted to the video where she was crowned as Miss India.
The' Fashion' actor shared a video on Instagram, where she is seen watching the throwback video. The 'Dostana' actor recalled winning the title and joked about her sense of style and poses back then.

Sharing the reaction video, she wrote: "Alright guys, we're doing this! I'm watching footage from my Miss India pageant in 2000! This is where it all began... If you've never seen these before, you are in for quite a treat. #20in2020 @feminamissindia."

Throughout the video, the 'Gunday' actor is seen casually commenting on her hairstyle, enacting her own movement on stage, and also recalled her luscious hair, which she now wonders where it all got lost.

However, she took a moment to appreciate the "clever and profound" answer she gave for the question that won her the crown.

While watching the winning moment, the 'Don' star noted how she never expected to win it. She explained that she had a train booked as she was to go back and take her board exams.

Going through the old photographs that run parallel to the video, she says: "These pictures are hard to look at." Pausing at a particular photograph, she laughs and says, "I don't even know how to do that pose."

"Well, this is where everything started. These are the pictures that sent me to Tinseltown," said the actor towards the end of the video.

California, Jun 30: Online video-sharing platform YouTube on Monday banned several prominent channels, including those belonging to Stefan Molyneux and Richard Spencer.

The company banned six channels for repeatedly violating YouTube's policies.

According to The Verge, other channels banned include American Renaissance (with its associated channel AmRen Podcasts) and the channel for Spencer's National Policy Institute.

YouTube began taking stern measures on supremacist channels in June 2019.

"We have strict policies prohibiting hate speech on YouTube, and terminate any channel that repeatedly or egregiously violates those policies," the Verge quoted a YouTube spokesperson as saying.

"After updating our guidelines to better address supremacist content, we saw a 5x spike in video removals and have terminated over 25,000 channels for violating our hate speech policies," the spokesperson added.
