Ekta Kapoor celebrates her son’s birthday at Siddhivinayak temple

Ekta Kapoor, the ace producer of popular TV serials and films, celebrated her son Ravie’s third birthday at the Siddhivinayak Temple on January 27, 2022. Ravie is named after his famous grandfather Jeetendra, whose original name is Ravi Kapoor. He was accompanied by his mother Ekta and his grandfather Jeetendra at the Siddhivinayak temple for the celebration through prayers and Puja.

Ekta made a wonderful video of the different moments of her son’s activities and posted it on social media. Ravie was seen enjoying moments of cuddling with his mother, playing joyfully with his cousin Laksshya (the son of Ekta’s brother, Tusshar Kapoor), and various other moments. The background song of the video was ‘Baar Baar Din Ye Aaye’, an old hit song by Md Rafi and picturised on Jeetendra.

Ravie seemed to enjoy the celebrations thoroughly. He posed with a wonderful smiling face at the temple and sitting on his grandpa’s lap. Mother Ekta looked happy and content at the temple, celebrating his son’s birthday. The COVID restrictions were observed by them, as all of them (including the little Ravie) were wearing masks.

Celebrities showered their love and blessings on little Ravie on his birthday. Uncle Tusshar Kapoor posted a lovely collage with pictures of Ekta and Ravie whom he lovingly calls ‘Ravioli’ and ‘Apple of our Eyes’ and blessed his nephew. Actorturned-politician Smriti Irani blessed Ravie with a beautiful montage of videos of Ekta and her son, calling Ravie a blessing for his mother and the entire family. Ekta thanked her on behalf of her son, calling Smriti the ‘best maasi (maternal aunt) ever’!

Pavitra Rishta, Season 2 Gets Viewers’ Praise

Pavitra Rishta, the famous TV serial, made Sushant Singh Rajput and Ankita Lokhande famous back in 2009. Now, the second season of the same serial was presented as a web series; and viewers are still in awe of the story of Manav and Archana. It was hugely praised by most of the viewers; and the new approach and modern storytelling were highly acclaimed.

Ankita Lokhande resumed the role of Archana in the second season, while this time Shaheer Sheikh played the role of Manav. The web series was released in two parts in 2021. The first part was well appreciated; and no sooner was the second part released than the viewers started binge-watching the episodes. Ankita Lokhande’s acting prowess has made her the perfect Archana, even after the long gap of 12 years. Viewers also liked the performance of Shaheer Sheikh as Manav, and admired the delightfully enjoyable chemistry between the two.

The contemporary storyline and the eternal bond between Manav and Archana is the essence of the story; and the audience are in full admiration of the new plot. The risk of reintroducing such a famous serial was a factor. But the audience convinced producer Ekta Kapoor that her decision of creating a second season was the right choice. Fans are still in love with the tenderly beautiful portrayal of the love and feeling of belonging between Manav and Archana in contemporary times.

Words of applause and admiration were showered in social media for both Ankita and Shaheer. The timeless appeal of their love story has been proven enduring once again.

Actor Mouni Roy tied the knot with her beau Suraj Nambiar on January 27, 2022, in Goa. Suraj is a Dubai-based entrepreneur and they have been dating since 2019. The wedding ceremony was attended by some of the Bollywood friends of Mouni along with the family members of both bride and the groom. The pre-wedding ceremonies of Haldi and Mehndi were celebrated the day before the marriage.

Suraj being a Malayali and Mouni a Bengali, was a happy co-existence of both rituals. In the morning the couple got married following Malayali rituals. Mouni was looking exquisitely beautiful in a typically Malayali bridal attire of white saree with red border adorned in bridal jewelry. The groom looked dashing in beige kurta and traditional white mundu.

In the evening, it was time for the Bengali wedding. Mouni chose a red Lehenga designed by Sabyasachi for the Bengali wedding ceremony. The venue of the ceremonies was the Hilton Resort of Goa. Bollywood celebrities like Mandira Bedi, Arjun Bijlani, Aashka Goradia, Rahul of DID fame attended the wedding. Mandira and Arjun posted several pictures of the couple. Mouni also posted a picture of her wedding and sought blessings from all her wellwishers.

There was a buzz about the marriage of Mouni for a long time. The actor however did not comment in this regard. Mouni Roy is famous for the show Naagin and films like Gold starring Akshay Kumar; she will be seen in the film Brahmastra with Ranbir Kapoor, Alia Bhatt and Amitabh Bachchan.

Anupama Tops TRP but Loses Points

It is still at the top of the TRP list, but Anupamaa is perhaps losing its popularity. The points received by the serial shows its dropping fame. What started as a gripping story of the struggle of a middle-class housewife is now becoming boring for the audience. Viewers have showered so much praise and admiration for Rupali Ganguly who portrays the role of Anupamaa that she gradually became a role model of modest protest and perseverance. There is still no other serial to replace Anupamaa from the top position. However, if this downfall continues, there will be others to replace Anupamaa. What are the factors that the audience does not like about Anupama? An indepth analysis and opinion of the viewers show that they are not interested to watch the details about Vanraj and his tricks. They are also not interested in the romance between Anuj and Anupamaa. Viewers are of the opinion that the serial is being dragged unnecessarily.

Fans of Anupamaa wishes to see her role as an independent and selfreliant woman that can encourage several middleaged housewives like her. There are enough negativity and suffering in the life of the common man. Hence they do not wish to see further negativity in their favourite serial. The growth of Anupamaa will create a feeling of fulfilment among them.

This is perhaps a message to the makers of the serial to bring out positivity in the story. This will bring back the lost points and create new records for the serial.
