Parineeti Chopra on dating director Maneesh Sharma: I don't have a romantic life

August 17, 2016

Mumbai, Aug 17: It's been five years since Parineeti Chopra made her Bollywood debut. But unlike other actors, she has been linked to more or less only one man in the industry- her first director, Maneesh Sharma. Though, the two have remained silent on their relationship status all these years, recently the news of their patch up started doing the rounds, after a brief break up.

But the Shuddh Desi Romance actor has finally opened up about her relationship status with Maneesh. In an interview to Hindustan Times, Parineeti has rubbished all the rumours calling them "very funny".

"I haven't met Maneesh for over two-three months. I didn't even know that he had gone on a holiday. We spoke on the phone sometime back, and he asked me, 'Apparently, you have been coming to my cabin every day (at producer Aditya Chopra's office) and meeting me. But mera kaunsa cabin hai (which cabin do I have)?'" she said.

But the 27-year-old actor also says that such rumours do affect her life as things at times do get out of hands. "Maneesh and I have known each other for six years. And for six years, we have been saying the same thing - we are not dating. It's too much, because my personal life gets affected by these things, which people don't understand," she added.

Recently, Parineeti was also linked up to her Shuddh Desi Romance co-star Sushant Singh Rajput and the actor was surprised to hear such rumours as she hasn't met him in a long time. "Such reports do affect our lives. There were some stories about Sushant and me as well, but I have not met him in a year. The stories said that we met one night, and suddenly, his break up happened because of me. I was like, 'Wow, I don't even remember the last time I spoke to him.' People around me were making fun of me, saying, 'Why are these romantic stories being published about you?' Because I don't have a romantic life," she said.

On the work front, Parineeti will be next seen in Meri Pyaari Bindu opposite Ayushamnn Khurrana.

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.

Mumbai, Mar 7: A 'farm-to-fork' themed restaurant 'He-Man' situated on National Highway in Haryana's Karnal -- franchised by veteran Bollywood actor Dharmendra -- has been sealed for building law violations, officials said on Saturday.

The Karnal Municipal Corporation sealed the franchise outlet on Friday for not furnishing the change of land use (CLU) certificate and illegal constructions, an official said.

The restaurant is located on National Highway 44 on the outskirts of Karnal, some 150 km from here.

The franchise was given to Delhi-based businessman Pramod Kumar.

"After the success of my restaurant Garam Dharam Dhaba, I am now announcing a farm-to- fork themed restaurant 'He-Man'," Dharmendra had announced on Instagram after its launch on Valentine's Day.

Karnal Deputy Commissioner Nishant Yadav said the action was initiated as the restaurant owner did not respond to MC notice on the issue.

Los Angeles, Jan 9: Actors Salma Hayek and Tiffany Haddish are hopeful about the future for women in Hollywood and now cinema is making films about women because the audience was "neglected".

The duo along with Rose Byrne star in Like a Boss, a comedy directed by Miguel Arteta, which follows best friends Mia and Mel (Haddish and Byrne) who join forces to run their own boutique cosmetics company.

When the prospect of a big buyout offer from a notorious titan of the beauty industry (Hayek) tempts them, their lifelong bond - and their business - is put in jeopardy.

Hayek said she is happy with the increase in female-driven films in Hollywood.

"We're on the right path. And we're not going to stop," the actor told Variety.

"What I can tell you is that a lot more women are directing and acting and writing and producing. And there are a lot more movies made about women and for women because the audience was neglected, she said.

She was speaking at the premiere of the film in New York.

Haddish added that the mantle for change shouldn't be left to the traditional decision-makers.

To get things, one has to sometimes make noise, the actor-author said.

"It's about us putting in the work and creating the projects and creating the opportunities in order to do those things to make it better. I sit back and I listen to people talk sometimes, saying, 'They're not letting us; they're not giving it to us.' Why do we have to ask permission? Why can't we just start putting it together? If they want to come on board with it, come on board. And if not, oh well," Haddish said.

"I'm about creating an opportunity. People say I'm loud and obnoxious, but sometimes it’s the squeaky wheel that gets the oil and gets things done," she added.

The comedy comes on the heels of a year gone by in cinema that featured female protagonists in films like Little Women and Captain Marvel.
