Anupam Kher runs into old pupil Deepika Padukone and expresses his delight and pride in her achievement.
When Anupam Kher ran into his former student and actress Deepika Padukone at Dubai airport, he was a proud teacher. Anupam expressed his delight at Deepika’s success since she began studying acting at his academy. On Tuesday, he posted photos from the meeting to his Instagram account.
Deepika kept her hands on his shoulder and posed with him in the photographs. Anupam also shared a selfie that Deepika took. “Happy to meet talented Ms. @deepikapadukone at Dubai airport!” he captioned the photos. Her success graph makes me doubly happy and proud because she is an alumni of @actorprepares! “All hail!” Fans were ecstatic to see them together, with one remarking, “Two of my favourites in one place.”
Deepika Padukone, who made her acting debut alongside Shah Rukh Khan in the 2007 film Om Shanti Om, studied acting for three months at Anupam Kher’s film academy Actor Prepares. Later, she collaborated with Anupam on the 2011 film Desi Boyz, in which he portrayed her father.
Anupam previously admitted to making Deepika cry during one of his classes. “She was good at everything, punctual, and would do things with finesse,” he told HT in 2019. She appeared to want to do everything perfectly. My point is that acting isn’t just about perfection; it’s also about the flaws. I gave her an improvisation exercise one day to break her composure as a perfectionist. ‘You work as a bai (maid) in a house, there is no such thing as ‘perfection’ (about her),’ I told her. Her mannerisms were impeccable, but her character wouldn’t know how to use a fork or knife. That went on for 45 minutes… until I felt she’d figured it out (new things).
Shakun Batra’s Gehraiyaan was Deepika’s most recent film. She will next be seen alongside Shah Rukh Khan and John Abraham in Pathaan. Nag Ashwin’s Project K, in which she stars alongside Amitabh Bachchan, Prabhas, and Disha Patani, is also in the works. The actor will also star alongside Hrithik Roshan and Anil Kapoor in the film Fighter.
Anupam was last seen in Vivek Agnihotri’s The Kashmir Files, a film about the 1990s exodus of Kashmiri Pandits from the Kashmir Valley. He’ll next be seen in Uunchai, directed by Sooraj Barjatya and starring Amitabh Bachchan, Parineeti Chopra, Danny Denzongpa, and Boman Irani.

Food blogger attacked by Swara Bhasker for boasting about being a vegetarian on Twitter: “Smug self-righteousness”
In response to food blogger Nalini Unagar’s “proud to be a vegetarian” tweet, actor Swara Bhasker attacked Unagar. On Sunday, Nalini posted a photo of her lunch at X. It included a paneer dish and fried rice.
What was said by the food blogger?
Nalini shared the picture and added, “I’m happy to be a vegetarian. There are no more tears, cruelty, or guilt on my platter.”
This is Swara’s response.
In response, Swara penned, “To be honest… I find vegetarians’ arrogant self-righteousness to be incomprehensible. Denying the calf its mother’s milk, forcing cows to become pregnant, ripping them from their calves, and taking their milk are the main components of your diet.”
Furthermore, she said, “You eat root vegetables? That eliminates the entire plant! Just because it’s Bakr Eid, don’t stress about virtue signalling (folded hands emojis). June 16–17 is when Bakr Eid, or Eid al-Adha, is observed.
Swara just had her Eid celebration.
A few months after celebrating Eid al-Fitr, Swara posted a tweet. She celebrated the occasion with her daughter Raabiyaa and spouse Fahad Ahmad. On her Instagram Stories, Swara posted snippets of her Eid festivities. Swara and Raabiyaa were shown in one of the stories pointing at the Eid ka Chaand. Another photo shows Swara, her daughter, and Fahad posing as a family. Fahad is Muslim, but Swara is Hindu.
When Swara discussed the cultures of her and Fahad
Swara performed a chhathi puja for Raabiyaa the previous year. She revealed tidbits from the festivities and reported discovering shared cultural experiences with Fahad’s family. “The child is a mish mash of the mish mash we are,” Swara had wrote. She therefore has 62.5% UP, 12.5% Bihar, and 25% Andhra. Furthermore, I support representation and am always up for a celebration! Furthermore, since our wedding, we’ve learned that Muslims and Hindus in North India have common cultural customs, which strengthens my conviction that, despite our variety, love and joy will always find a language.”
“Chhathhi, or the sixth day of a child’s birth, is celebrated throughout UP Bihar. Mom and kid dress in the colour of turmeric or haldi, and aunts or bua put kaajal on the child and parents to protect them from ‘nazar,’ or the evil eye! I’m performing a well-known “sohar”—celebration songs for new babies. Although sohars are often used to celebrate newborn boys, I customised it for a newborn girl—oh! And although sisters and aunts sing the sohars, mothers don’t, so I thought, “Why not?” Dholak aa gaya hai! Thank you to @manisha2967 for the Chhathhi lesson and the beautiful singing I was able to do, and to Bhanu ji @partapsinghb11 for the dholak that helped make my singing pleasant.
