Aditi_Rao_HydariMumbai, Aug 24: 'Murder 3' actress Aditi Rao Hydari, who would be seen next opposite Akshay Kumar in action drama 'Boss', says the success story of her co-star inspired her to believe in herself.

"Akshay Kumar is always on time, he is always disciplined and hard working but also always entertaining, fun behind the camera and also in front of it. He has made his own space in the industry and reached here on his own. Stories like his inspire me to believe in myself and my talent and always feel positive," Aditi said.

'Boss' is an upcoming action drama directed by Anthony D'Souza, who had earlier made 'Blue' film with Akshay, Sanjay Dutt and Zayed Khan in the lead.

"'Boss' is a big scale entertainer... It is my first film of this kind. I was the only girl on set and was spoilt thoroughly by everyone. 'Boss' has action, comedy, romance, drama and some great songs. I hope you all will whistle," Adiit said.

Actor Aamir Khan's wife and filmmaker Kiran Rao happens to be Aditi's cousin and the actress says she has grown up admiring their work.

"I have grown up admiring both for their choices, intelligence, talent and courage. I am here to make my own journey and I hope I can carve out my own space in the industry. Whenever I need a sounding board and advice I have few people who I speak to including Kiran," Aditi said.

She recently saw 'Ship of Theseus' which was presented by Kiran Rao.

"I watched it at the screening with her and later again in the theatre. It gives you something new to think about. Its a very special film with brilliant performances," she added.

Aamir has been producing films but as of now Aditi has not got the chance to do a film with him. Ask her if there is anything in pipeline, she says, "anyone would be blessed and lucky to work with them."

Also, Aditi will be the show stopper for Anita Dongre's fashion brand Global Desi, which making its her debut at the Lakme Fashion Week.

"Global Desi signifies Boho chic... The clothes are pretty and spunky. It is for people who are cosmopolitan with an Indian heart. I was very happy when Anita Dongre said I suit their brand perfectly and am very happy being part of their debut show at Lakme Fashion Week," she said.

Aditi says she dresses according to her mood.

According to her, fashion is about letting go and having fun. "Its about trying different looks and expressing yourself through them. You shine when you are fashionable not just your clothes."

Among Bollywood actresses, its Deepika Padukone, Kangana Ranaut and Dia Mirza that inspire Aditi when it comes to fashion.

"People who have a unique personality and have a relatable sense of fashion and themselves inspire me. Like Deepika Padukone she is versatile and wears everything with ease and happiness and it shows on her. While I like Dia Mirza for her elegance and Kangana Ranaut for her edge," she added.

New Delhi, Jan 8: Actor Kangana Ranaut on Wednesday applauded director Meghna Gulzar and actor Deepika Padukone for making 'Chhapaak', a film based on acid-attack victims.

Kangana's sister Rangoli Chandel who herself is an acid-attack survivor took to Twitter to share a video of the actor where she is seen extending thanks to Gulzar and Padukone for making a film on the important issue.

"I saw the trailer of the film 'Chhapaak' recently, and after watching it I was reminded of the incident of acid attack on my sister Rangoli. Today, I and my family thank Meghna Gulzar and Deepika (Padukone) that they made a film on this issue. This will give courage to those people who gave up on their life after struggling with it," said Ranaut in the video.

"This film has placed a tight slap on the face of those monsters who succeeded in their act but not in their will. With this film, all those faces will glow that have been spoiled and their courage was broken by these monsters and the beauty of their spirit," the 'Panga' actor said.

Congratulating the team of the film, Kangana added, "I wish that with this New Year the sale of acid gets prohibited so that this country becomes free of acid-attacks. In the end many many congratulations to the team 'Chhapaak'."

The movie is based on the real-life acid attack survivor of Laxmi, who at the age of 15, was attacked allegedly by a spurned lover in 2005. Laxmi had to undergo several surgeries. Later, she took up the job of helping acid attack survivors and promoted campaigns to stop such attacks.

'Chhapaak' is being helmed by Meghna Gulzar and is being co-produced by Deepika and Fox Star Studios. The movie is set to hit theatres on January 10, 2020.

New Delhi, Apr 23: As the holy month of Ramzan is about to begin, several Muslim public figures on Thursday appealed to the community to offer tarawih and hold iftar inside their homes and follow the lockdown regulations imposed to tackle the coronavirus threat.

Television actor Iqbal Khan in a video message appealed to the people to not step out of their houses during Ramzan.

"This time around, whatever you do during Ramzan, you have to do it inside your houses. Do not visit mosques; offer tarawih (late evening prayers offered during Ramzan) at your homes. Your stepping outside will not only put you in a problem but may put your family members in trouble also," said Khan.

"And that will be wrong, do not go outside. If anyone says you have to go outside then they are wrong. Stay home and stay safe and help others stay safe too," he added.

Another TV actor and Tik Tok star Jannat Zubair asked people to avoid any kind of social gatherings so as to ensure the safety of everyone.

"I know we are in a difficult situation but there is no need to panic. We will overcome this and things will be fine. The holy month of Ramzan is going to start, please stay home, offer prayers at your homes and avoid family/friends gatherings for now. It is just a matter of time, things will be fine soon. Stay home and stay safe," she said.
Ramzan is likely to begin from April 24.
