Driving full throttle into 2021! January opens its infant eyes to the era of brand-new beginnings, stories, perspectives, solutions and a whole new outlook to life. As we celebrate 2021 and leave back the trying 2020, here is to hope, aspirations, dreams, self-care, love, family time and time to renew, recharge and rejuvenate ourselves. With the Covid 19 vaccine in Dubai, we are some of the lucky few across the world who get to let their hair down and celebrate life, with precautions in place! On the cover, we have the stunning Rakul Preet Singh who is soaring high with success this year and has a slew of films with legends such as Amitabh Bachchan and Kamal Haasan to her credit. Aakanksha Naval-Shetye spoke to her about her unique journey across Bollywood and South cinema, her dream date and her love for health foods! The Filmfare OTT awards that happened in Mumbai despite the pandemic scare this year was a treat to cinephiles. Most of the Breakout stars of OTT, we featured in the Filmfare Middle Eastern edition have won awards and accolades. Catch my interview with the intense and dynamic Amit Sadh who is in Dubai and whose outlook towards life stems from triumphing the challenges life threw at him. Also check out our interview with the superbly talented and loved Pratik Gandhi who has won our hearts as Harshad Mehta in the series Scam 1992 on SonyLIV. This month, we host the Filmfare ME Social Night at M Gallery by Sofitel, The Retreat - Palm, Dubai, where the well-heeled of Dubai will rub shoulders with bloggers, YouTubers, TikTok stars from the region and India who will win awards. India’s most well-known YouTuber and influencer Bhuvam Bam will be part of the event apart from a Bollywood star and a host of local celebrities. Influencer and YouTube sensation Ashish Chanchlani is on our pages this month and he talks to Aakanksha about creating laugh-worthy content and his rise to fame and fandom. I caught up with life-coach Arfeen Khan who has worked with several noted Bollywood celebrities to improve the quality of their spiritual life. Khan grew up in London but had a roaring practice in Mumbai where he had his brush with Bollywood including landing a role in Mere Brother ki Dulhan and getting Mr Amitabh Bachchan to write a note for his book after sending him 36 drafts. Our magazine this month is choc-a-bloc with goodies to splurge and indulge in this festive season and New Year. It is also the time for the Dubai Shopping Festival, the great outdoors, endless parties and continuing the celebrations that started last year. Also check out our local interviews section where we ask Dubai’s prominent people what are their plans for 2021! Dubai-based filmmaker Zenofer Fathima reveals her plans for this year.

Bespoken
Bliss !
The Have and Have-Nots was the decadent buzz at the indulgent bashes bidding adieu to a year best-forgotten, though not the lessons learnt! Dubai dabbed on that make-up and bejeweled look as it decked on the lights and added a touch of oomph to its already glitzy dazzle as it prepped for the New Beginnings. And as the city’s doyens and the globe-trotting beau monde made Dubai their New Year luxury hotspot to bring on the months ahead on a promising note, the air got thick with whiffs of the most sensuous fragrances, but also with intimate goss as the Have-BeenVaccinated brigade took the lead over the Have-Nots! But statement or not, the vaccine was clearly the necessity of the day. Like UAE taking the lead in providing the best in healthcare. Also setting an exemplary example yet again, The Boss ensured that not just him, but the entire office and the Team get their shots too. And with our immune systems donning their Covid-proof vests in place, we step out into the New Year raring to go with a renewed zest! Talking about stepping out… that we could do in the most stylish BOOTS all this season! To be honest THAT is an absolute fashion-treat for any Glam-Chica. And an even bigger dream come true for someone from Mumbai, unless of course you belong to the city’s globe-trotting brigade or to the B’wood glam-gang! I still remember back in the 90s ever since the Pretty Woman posters came about with Julia Roberts posing in that teeny-weeny pink top and the black mini with her thigh-high boots, naughtily tugging at Richard Gere’s tie, the world’s women might have had eyes for Gere, but there were those like me whose eyes were on the Boots! It was love at first sight… But it was to be a forbidden love affair, one that would never become a reality in Mumbai. Ask any fashionabelle, how they longed for the Boots to be a fixture in their wardrobes, but alas the city is not one for them. But it is Dubai that has finally helped me romance my first true love with an unabashed reverence! Whether they’re Over-The-Knee-Thigh-High-Cuts or the classic cowboy style or the safe ankle-boots or combats or the Booties… You are spoilt for choice… From the Louboutins to the Fendis and Amina Muaddi’s crystal ones to Valentino! And at the end, you might be a little too light on the wallet, but boy aren’t those boots just worth it! Ask any boot-lover?! So let the boots do the talking baby, ‘cause the Dubai streets are meant for walking!

RUMOURS AND MORE
Rumours & More LAAL SINGH CHADDHA TO BRING THE THREE KHANS TOGETHER
Aamir Khan’s last release was Thugs Of Hindostan (2018). The audience didn’t take kindly to it. Looks like Aamir doesn’t want to disappoint his fans again. So he’s leaving no stone unturned to make sure his next Laal Singh Chaddha is a hit. Laal Singh Chaddha is the official remake of the Hollywood drama Forrest Gump. While we’ve already heard that Shah Rukh Khan has shot for his cameo in the film, now we hear that even Salman Khan might be roped in. SRK will be seen in his ‘Raj’ avatar from his iconic film Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge. A source close to the film confirmed the same, sayng “The screenplay weaves in iconic moments from each decade and since we love our matinee idols, Chaddha’s journey would be incomplete without certain top stars. So, during this journey of self-discovery, Aamir lands on the sets to meet Shah Rukh around the release of DDLJ and sharing his personal experiences, engages with the wonder world.” And while Shah Rukh Khan is seen as Raj, it is said that Salman Khan will portray his iconic ‘Prem’ roles. “His Prem wooed the audience in the ’90s, from Maine Pyar Kiya, Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! to Hum Saath Saath Hain and Aamir is keen to get Salman back as Prem in his social dramedy. There’s a track set in 1989 that depicts a change in audience taste, from action to romance, and the craze around Salman. They are expected to finalise the details soon,” Three cheers for Laal Singh Chaddha, we say!
DEEPIKA PADUKONE TO PLAY AN AGENT IN PATHAAN We’ve learnt that Deepika Padukone
will essay the role of an agent in YRF’s Pathaan. She is juggling between this movie and Shakun Batra’s next. She is set to join SRK in mid-December and the major chunk of action-packed sequences will be shot between January and June 2021. As far as Deepika’s character is concerned, it is set in the world of agents and she will perform a lot of action. She’s said to be an agent who joins Pathaan on a mission. Buzz is that her role is on the lines of Katrina Kaif’s from the Tiger franchise. Yash Raj Films is apparently creating a universe of sorts with their agents’ franchise. It is being reported that Salman Khan will make an appearance as Tiger in Pathaan, SRK will do a cameo as Pathaan in Tiger 3 and both of them will reportedly appear in the War sequel to join Hrithik Roshan’s Kabir.
HRITHIK ROSHAN SET TO MAKE HIS HOLLYWOOD DEBUT AS A SPY? According to reports, Hrithik Roshan is all set to play a parallel lead in a Hollywood spy film. Hrithik had signed up with an American talent management company eight months ago. And that has culminated into a movie now. The actor reportedly shot his audition at his Juhu pad in Mumbai. The Hollywood auditions usually happen at the studios. But they were okay with a homeshot audition because of the pandemic. Speaking to a daily, a source said, “As is customary in Los Angeles, Hrithik’s team was given details of his role in the movie and the scene he had to tape. He sent his audition to the studio two weeks ago. The discussion is still at a nascent stage. If all goes well, the actor will kick off the project after completing the shoot of Krrish 4.” Looks like Hrithik Roshan is all set to change gears.
David Beckham welcomes Priyanka Chopra to the British Fashion Council
Priyanka Chopra Jonas is always making news and topping the headlines with her work. Recently, we heard that the actress had been signed on as the ambassador for the British Fashion Council for positive change. The actress will team up with the organisation to create an awareness about various social causes. It’s yet another great achievement for the actress. While congratulatory comments are pouring in, legendary footballer David Beckham, who has also been associated with the BFC for years, too posted a welcome message. Beckham commented saying, ‘Welcome to the BFC family,’ and even inserted a red-heart. Soon Priyanka replied to his comment saying, ‘@davidbeckham Thank you so much!’ The actress will be seen next in The White Tiger. The trailer has amazed everyone. We can hardly wait to see the film.
Unfinished!
PeeCee certainly ended the year on a good note, or should we say book! The actress’ memoir Unfinished is finally done. Priyanka had been keeping her fans updated about the book that also marks her completing two decades in the entertainment industry since her crowning - first as Miss India and then as Miss World. Beauty queen, actress, singer, author… what’s next PeeCee?

KATRINA KAIF TO PLAY A GHOST IN PHONE BHOOT Katrina Kaif is all set to play a ghost in the horror-comedy Phone Bhoot. It’s something we’ve never seen her do before. Given that this is new territory for Kat, it’s going to be super exciting to see her spook everyone out. Katrina will start preparing for the film soon. Frankly though, we don’t know how an actor prepares to be a ghost. Jokes aside, she’ll go in for her look test soon. She apparently won’t be romancing either Siddhant Chaturvedi or Ishaan Khatter in the film... too bad for both of them. The film is said to be a spoof on the horror genre. Looks like we’re in for a lot of good, clean, spooky fun.
AKSHAY KUMAR GIVES A NOD TO MUDASSAR AZIZ
Akshay Kumar is known for his back-to-back releases in a year. Right now, the actor has Rohit Shetty’s Sooryavanshi, Pooja and Emmay Entertainment’s Bell Bottom, YRF’s Prithviraj, Aanand L Rai’s Atrangi Re and Raksha Bandhan, Sajid Nadiadwala’s Bachchan Pandey and Ekta Kapoor’s next drama-comedy. He has now said yes to another comedy. According to reports, the actor has given his nod to Mudassar Aziz’s next. The director who has helmed films like Happy Bhaag Jayegi and the remake of Pati Patni Aur Woh is all set to team up with Akshay Kumar. According to sources, the actor said yes instantly after hearing the script. Comedy has always worked for Akshay and we hope this one will too.
ARE DEEPIKA PADUKONE AND KARTIK AARYAN COMING TOGETHER ON SCREEN? Kartik Aaryan celebrated his 30th birthday recently and wishes poured in from his fans as well as industry friends. Deepika Padukone’s birthday message for Kartik Aaryan resulted in a fun Instagram banter. It all started with Deepika Padukone posting a picture of Kartik Aaryan as her Instagram story on his birthday. Along with the pic, she wrote, “Happy Birthday. May we sign a fun film together this year,” along with a tongue-out emoji. Replying to this, Kartik Aaryan shared Deepika’s story on his Instagram and wrote, “Aap bas dates taiyaar rakho, fun aur film main laa raha hoon.” Sharing Kartik’s reply, Deepika Padukone then wrote, “Sir! Mere saare dates aapke,” along with a heart sticker. Now this has got us excited.
expert advice Your hair loss is not only your problem, it is ours as well
THE AMERICAN AESTHETIC CLINIC ENSURES THE BEST HAIR TRANSPLANT TREATMENT IN THE REGION – FUE. HERE’S WHAT IT IS ALL ABOUT? There are problems that would be perceived unsolvable, keeping people longing for solutions that were thought to not exist ever. Hair loss was also considered unavoidable up to the time when there was a breakthrough and people started going back from hair transplant centers with the surety that this loss can be reversed. Here are some facts about one of best techniques of hair transplant i.e. Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE). WHAT DOES METHOD OF FUE (FOLLICULAR UNIT EXTRACTION) INVOLVE? It is micro-surgical hair transplantation in which follicular units of hair (one unit consisting of hairs between one and four) are harvested from donor area such as back and sides of the head, nape of the neck or behind the ears which is followed by implantation of hair into the balding recipient area. HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO HEAL? Since, no staples, stitches or bandaging is required for this surgery; the recovery time is really less. It is expected to heal within one week as hair starts to grow back by the second week after the surgery. Although, shedding of scabs might continue for up to eight weeks in this area. WHEN IS THE GROWTH ANTICIPATED TO BE SEEN IN THE RECIPIENT AREA? New hair starts to grow at approximately four months and the process of growth may stretch to 18 months by which the new hair growth must be mature, healthy, thick and begin blending in with surrounding hair. POTENTIAL COMPLICATIONS THAT MAY ARISE: It is known to be a safe, effective, and minimally invasive surgery, however, complications may come up as happens with any other medical surgery due to practitioner being inexperienced, use of un-perfected vacuum-based devices , blood clotting abnormalities or an allergic reaction to anesthesia. Your hair is no different than the very things required for our existence i.e. trees and foliage. Not only, have you to take care of them, they need to be implanted too once lost. - Dr. Sana Sajan Director of American Aesthetic Medical Center January 2021 FILMFARE MIDDLE EAST 11

mega-films coming up… You’ve a busy year ahead! Yes, it’s busy, but a good busy and I’ve been shooting non-stop since August.
You’re shooting with Ajay Devgn again. This time for MayDay - a completely different genre from the last time when you did De De Pyaar De… This is a completely different genre, but there’s definitely a certain familiarity this time around. Also he’s donning double hats, as he’s the director as well. He’s amazing and hats off to him. It’s tough when you are acting and directing and you’re the captain of the ship in all ways. Plus, MayDay is not an easy film to shoot. Ajay plays a pilot and I am the co-pilot and the film revolves around this incident that happened a few years ago. It’s interesting, though I can’t reveal anything more at this point. And the film also stars Amitabh Bachchan! I’ve adored him… Ever since I became an actor, I’ve had that dream that I want to work with Bachchan Saab one day and act with Bachchan Sir in a film and I’m grateful that this film happened and I got an opportunity to work with him. Indian cinema and he go hand-in-hand, so for me it’s a dream come true. You are also doing Indian 2 with Kamal Haasan, another legend! It’s an amazing experience and he’s someone who has such immense knowledge and experience that you’re in awe working with such people. I mean these personalities are huge, so you can learn so much just by being around them. You’ve completed seven years in the industry and have an amazing slate of work to your credit… You know, when you start out, you don’t know how it will all be. All I knew is that I wanted to do well. Like obviously you have an ambition and a goal and I’ve always been keen to do well for myself. In fact, I had given myself two years that if I do not do well then I will go back to my studies. So I did not know what I’m going to do, but I was sure that I was not going to be a struggler indefinitely. Do you think it’s a better time for actors in cinema today, especially for the heroines? Cinema has definitely adapted from the way the society is changing. Both the society and cinema go hand-inhand, so that will keep changing from generation to generation. And I feel that for each generation they’ve had their pros and cons. But, what’s really good today is the availability of the different kinds of work for actors. There’s films, but there’s also OTT that has opened a different kind of opportunity altogether. There are also far more women-led

films in comparison. It’s not like earlier they did not have importance, I mean look at the films that Tabu has led, or Karisma (Kapoor) has done or Kareena (Kapoor Khan)! But today it’s happening on a much larger scale and I feel that there are so many concepts being experimented with. That’s the good part as there’s a larger audience watching the content that’s being generated. So over all I would say it’s a great time. The crossovers happening between South and Hindi film industry have shot up considerably the past years. You’re one of those few who’ve always been balancing them. But do you have a specific preference between the two? It was never planned that I will come and do a Hindi film. I was busy in the South, but then Bollywood happened, and I was like ‘okay I’ll do it’. Today I want to do a good amount of Hindi films, because I already have a body of work in the South and I want to have a similar body of work in Hindi too, or maybe even more. But I’ve never had a thought that I will want to choose one over the other. The choice depends purely on the script, whether that excites me or not, no matter what the language may be. It’s definitely not a conscious effort to do this many South films or Hindi films. You are fluent in Telugu? Yes, as much as I am in Punjabi. Tamil I understand, but I can’t speak as well. The fan adulation down South is a different affair altogether as compared to Hindi industry? I wouldn’t compare the two. I’m just overwhelmed with the love that I have got in both the industries. I feel that my career has just started here, but I will forever be grateful to my Telugu audience for giving me so much love. I can only be grateful and hope that I keep working hard enough to be able to deserve that much more love and adulation.
learnt, but you grow every day, you learn something new from your mistakes, from things that work well and things that don’t and from people around you… I look at it like a never-ending process. Do your hectic schedules leave you time for other pursuits… I believe that there is enough time for everything that you prioritize. I’m like a walking-talking timetable and I know there are enough hours in a day if you really sort of compartmentalize it right. Does it come from being an army-kid? Yes, a lot of discipline comes from being an army kid. Like even on a Sunday I can’t wake up late. But it’s also because there’s just so much I want to do, I’m like an enthu-cutlet! (Laughs).
The one rule I completely follow is to just put your blinders on and focus on your work. Take it one day at a time! That’s what I live by, and that’s the secret to having a peaceful, happy, sane life.
ONE DAY AT A TIME!
So what’s your criteria for choosing films? Do co-stars or filmmakers matter or is it just the script like you mentioned? You know there’s never an answer to that. There’s a permutation-combination when it comes to choosing a film. Sometimes you want to work with a certain actor or then there’s a certain director or the story excites you, so there’s always something that you’ll like more but not necessarily just that one thing. It’s a combination. For me if I get an opportunity to work with say Sanjay Leela Bhansali Sir or anybody from the list of directors that I want to work with, then I’m not going to say that this should be my screen time or if it would be working with Shah Rukh (Khan) Sir or Akshay (Kumar) Sir! All I’m saying is that there’s always an aspect that will excite you more, whether it’s your co-actor or director or story. At the end of the day, it all boils down to your gut instinct at that point. So you pick and choose and I enjoy all genres. That’s the fun part about our jobs right? I enjoy everything. Which actor do you think you look best with or share the best chemistry? (Laughs) No, that’s for people to say. I want to work with everyone and people should say, ‘Oh they look really good together or their chemistry really works.’ What are the lessons you’ve learnt… Learning lessons and your growth is a very subconscious process. I am not what I was seven years ago. I can’t pinpoint any one thing that I January 2021 FILMFARE MIDDLE EAST 15

Including playing golf? Yes, I love the game and I indulge in social golfing on my days off. Would you want to do a biopic, is a sports movie on your wish list? Yaar mere plan karne se kya hota hai? (Laughs) It has to come to me. If the right story or script came to me, of course I’d love to do it. Anyone special you’d like to play on screen? There are a lot of stories that need to be told and a lot of people who should be celebrated. I haven’t thought of a particular name, but there are so many stories and people that we would be unaware of as well, about whose struggles we don’t even know about. So if I get something interesting that completely touches my heart, I would jump to do it. Cinema has the ability to influence and to sort of celebrate stories that need to be appreciated and we have such a large reach, so I would love to do a biopic because there are heroes in real sense.
What’s your take on the competition here? Which industry doesn’t have competition? I strongly feel that competition is positive and it inspires you to do your best. Like when I see people doing great work, it pushes me to do my best too. I love it, when I see my peers doing so good whether it’s Alia (Bhatt) or Taapsee (Pannu) or Samatha here in the South. It’s inspiring! You have a house in Mumbai and in Hyderabad, so where are you based? I am based wherever my shoot requires me to be! I am where my shoot is. What’s happening on the personal front? Nothing ya, I don’t know why, but nothing is happening. My mother also tells me that please find time for yourself (laughs)! Not like they are asking me to marry or anything but my mother has been saying this, because I am someone who completely believes in the institution of marriage. I’ve seen my parents and I have grown up on that, I have seen beautiful couples around, so I totally believe in love and I’m someone who’s a hardcore romantic. But I guess when the right time comes, the right person will come too. I haven’t met or come across someone right yet, so I don’t know what’s in store. What would be the best way to win Rakul’s heart? Well the best way would be to just be real. The moment someone puts on an act, I’m like, ‘please don’t put an act in front of actors’, (laughs). And no preferences about him being from industry or outside? No, no… I think it’s more important for me that the person should have a drive in life, a passion in life. I can’t deal with lethargy and and there’s no point in us being opposites in that sense, so definitely someone who’s high on life. And passionate about life and is driven, so profession and all doesn’t matter. Your zest for life is very infectious… That’s why when I don’t find people like this around I’m like ‘God why?’ So, what keeps you going on your low days? Everyone has highs and lows and I think it’s the positives that you’ve been blessed with that keep you going. You’d not really appreciate the highs if you don’t see the lows. So I tend to be grateful for what I have rather than fret about what I don’t. And when you are optimistic in life you can sail through anything.

Where does all this come from? I think I’ve always been very high on life, but the understanding of what really matters and the optimism is something that you learn from your experiences. I read a lot and I got into spirituality around four years ago by self-reading and understanding and I think that’s what that has sort of made me the person I am. Work apart what are you most passionate about? Life! I mean nothing external should be responsible for your happiness within. It might sound boring, but it’s true. Nothing - whether it’s my work, my films or a person should be responsible for keeping my passion going on in life. That happiness has to be internal!
I will forever be grateful to my Telugu audience for giving me so much love. I can only be grateful and hope that I keep working hard enough to be able to deserve that much more love and adulation.
You game for OTT? Absolutely, but it would depend on what I like. I mean it has to be really exciting or path-breaking, something interesting. Tell us one quirk you have! I’m a food-lover! Call it my obsession, but I’m a health food lover so I can look at food on a plate and calculate the calories and also I’m a fitness enthusiast and love working out. You have a successful chain of gyms in Hyderabad. Any plans of expansion? No, nothing on the cards yet.

From being a complete outsider, do you feel like an insider today? I never think of these insider-outsider things, I don’t take it too seriously and I feel that there are enough people who have been from non-film backgrounds who’ve made it so big - the biggest names… Shah Rukh Sir, Akshay Sir, then there’s Taapsee, Kartik, like you name it and you have it. So I never let that thought in my head. I knew I am entering into an industry that is not an easy one, about which I have no experience and which will require me to work harder and push through, but then nobody pushed me or forced me to do it. It was something I wanted for myself and when you want to go against the wave, you got to work hard and I was ready for that. I still think that there’s so much more that I need to do.

THE WONDER YEARS MANISH MALHOTRA LOOKS BACK AT HIS 30 WONDERFUL YEARS IN SHOW BUSINESS. AKASH NIHALANI TAKES NOTES
Manish Malhotra is a name that is synonymous with Bollywood fashion. The designer started his journey at the movies back in 1989 with Swarg. Thirty years down the line and Manish is the ultimate poster boy for showbiz fashion. He’s created some iconic outfits over the years. And has made friends with half of Bollywood - the half that matters, that is... As Manish completes a milestone in his career, we chat with the designer and learn a little more about his memorable journey down the years. Excerpts... Your journey as a designer in Bollywood began in 1989 with Juhi Chawla in Swarg. Tell us something about how that came about.
I was modelling at that time and had also started working in boutiques. I really enjoyed my time there as I was amongst clothes, I was sketching, I was dressing up the mannequin and all of that. Island magazine had just started their design fraternity, NIFT had just opened and they had done a thing about young designers. I was on the cover of the Island magazine. Then, I kind of ended up keeping two tailors at home. My cousin Laali, who is married to David Dhawan, was going to Hong Kong and she needed a few clothes for an exhibition. I showed her my sketches and she really liked them. I ended up making those clothes for her. Laali told David about me. They had to rush to shoot a schedule which was for the last song of Swarg in 1989. That’s how I ended up doing three costumes for the film. I remember going helter-skelter at the time. I was constantly running around. I picked up two costumes, changed them around, made one costume. And then, David ji gave me another film which was supposed to be Divya Bharti’s launch film with Govinda but it got shelved later. Then I went on to do Lootere and all those films

From Lootere (1990) to Student Of The Year 2 (2019),Bollywood fashion has come a long way. What do you think has influenced the industry through these years?
In my opinion, cinema is always changing. There are younger and younger actors, directors, writers coming in. They’ve changed the whole medium of storytelling and with that change, the look of a film has changed as well. Actually, I’ve really enjoyed my journey of 30 years. I don’t even know when these years passed by. There has been so much work, travel, friendships, relationships, success, celebrations, stress, handwork… all of it. It is something that I’m emotional about as it is a major chunk of my life.
At what point did your interest in fashion begin?
As far as I can remember, it was at the age of six... I was always interested in fashion, music, films, dance, costumes, heroines… My mother had hired a tuition teacher for me at the age of five, because she wanted me to be a good student, which of course I never was. She tells me I’d tell the teacher that her outfit wasn’t good or her sandals were not matching her outfit.
What does Bollywood fashion mean to you?
I’ve always seen myself as a student of Bollywood fashion. It is something that I’ve

always been interested in. I’m not just talking about the time when I started working in 1990. I’m talking about 1949 Andaaz, I’m speaking about 1950 Barsaat. I’m speaking about the art decor, the interior, the persona of the actors, the costumes... The influences of the work of V Shantaram, Raj Kapoor, Guru Dutt, Bimal Roy… how each of them costumed their films so aptly with the narrative of their stories. From the style, richness and grandeur one saw in Raj Kapoor’s films, the complete artistic viewpoint of Guru Dutt to Yash Chopra’s dreamy, rich world, everything has been such a strong influence. Even the iconic actors in the ’70s who popularised simple things. Like Rajesh Khanna’s kurta with a belt over it. I mean it’s such a basic thing which became a phenomenon.
years.
Many of your looks have gained iconic status over the years. Which one is the most special to you?
I started the system of styling in films. There are so many looks I’ve created, like the ones in Raja Hindustani, Katrina Kaif Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Rangeela, Judaai, Daud, Satya, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, Dostana, Jab We Met, Dhadkan, Student Of The Year 2… the list just goes on and on.
Kiara Advani
Which director you feel has a similar vision in styling and fashion as you?
Ram Gopal Verma was one director whom I felt had Janhvi Kapoor a great vision. Then there were Dharmesh Darshan and Aditya Chopra. But Karan Johar and me have a synergy and we work together to date. So many years of friendship and working together is not an easy task. But I feel we think alike. I actually got closer to him afer working with him for so long. I feel like his films are my films. And that bond has stayed over the

She made her debut in the Hindi film Roar: Tigers of the Sundarbans (2014), and gained popularity in Telugu cinema with item numbers in films like Temper and Kick 2.

These few months have reminded me that a lot of things, I studied in school regarding our global, political and economic system along with the global agenda, are now unfolding.

What are your plans for 2021? We’ve moved past the awareness short films with the Enigma Series which focused on specific societal and interpersonal issues that are prevalent in the world. In late 2020 and 2021, we have been working on and will be working to venture into paranormal and supernatural narratives. These will also be centered around a social message, but the key element is the edge of the seat suspense. There will be multiple series, under which we will have episodes and seasons that will be available on exclusive OTT platforms. As of now we are working on the Ouija Series, which is our first psychological meets supernatural series. The Enigma Series gave me the opportunity to get into the director’s seat and develop my craft and the Ouija Series will allow me to make even better films for the coming years. Tell us about Zen Film Productions and being a content creator in the Middle East? Zen Film Productions is a full-service video and film production company which is based in Dubai. Our preliminary focus is on curating and creating content for Middle Eastern as well as international audiences. We launched three years ago after my brief stint as a host of a food-based talk show called Food Addict, and I had worked with multiple actors on the show such as Rahul Dev and R. Madhavan. The experience definitely gave me an idea of what showbiz is like, and soon after I turned into a content creator after hearing stories from people from all walks of life. I’ve always wanted to venture into movies, and I thought this was the perfect opportunity for me to take people’s experiences into account, represent them on screen and perhaps find a solution to their problems and help them.
Tell us about your interest in the horror genre? I’ve always loved horror movie right from my childhood- there is something special about this genre that just gives you an adrenaline rush and keeps you at the edge of your seat. So, it’s a dream to have finally ventured into horror with the Ouija Series, which will feature six episodes/short films in the first season. I’m also open to working with other producers and production houses in terms of directing and lending my creative hand to create spine-chilling horror films, not just my own. The spookiest ghost story you have heard? The spookiest I’ve heard was actually a true story. This isn’t really a ghost story per se, but it’s a story of a jinn. This is up to interpretation as many people might classify something we can’t see with our eyes as a ghost or something supernatural. The story was about a man who was in the desert one evening. When it was time for the Maghrib (evening) Islamic prayer, he had gone to pray. Upon reading the Holy verses in his prayer, he heard a voice say “Ameen”, which is a word that is told after completing a chapter or surah. However, there was no one there. What made you get into filmmaking? I’ve always liked to see people act on screen, and it’s even more fun and interesting to help actors get into character. So that’s why I’ve always wanted to be a director. But, I have
What have been the challenges so far and how have you overcome them? Every career has its challenges. With filmmaking, and especially independent filmmaking it becomes harder as very often there are many things to oversee and monitor to ensure the film production schedule goes as planned. Sometimes actors would not be available, or we would have to find ways to make a particular scene seem like a particular time of the day, or we would face some obstacles that would delay the whole process. And as an independent filmmaker, you are also in charge of many other aspects like sponsorships and funding that are not related to the artistic responsibilities of the filmmaker. So, it’s not been easy, but I am keen on making every film better than the last, so that also means that I am always up for a challenge and have always been able to take these difficulties and turn them into something that can help make a better film at the end. It also really helps to have people who support you every step of the way. One of these friends are Emirati princess Sheikha Hend Bint Faisal Al Qasimi, who has always been there to keep me motivated throughout.

always wanted to be a filmmaker because it includes a lot more than just directing: it means producing, directing, scheduling shoots and equipment needed. This is my forte, and I always want to be the captain of the ship. I love to lead, so I feel like I have that bandwidth to be an independent filmmaker. Have you trained in acting and how do you manage intense scenes? I have not trained in acting. In fact, I believe that while people do need training to really assimilate into a character’s role, I think that we all are actors. All of the world is a stage, and we are the actors as Shakespeare once said. We cry when we have to, we laugh when we have to. We know how to instigate certain emotions and suppress others at different periods of time. I also think that I always had it in me, so it does come quite naturally. I think it also helps for me to really come into character an hour prior to when I am set to play that character, which many actors have personally told me that it has really helped. Researching what that character should be like in terms of mannerisms and charisma is also important. Intense scenes are always best done when you feel the emotions yourself. It really helps to think of an intense moment in your life, the emotions you felt at that exact moment and let that play out when acting. What about getting into food shows that you were once associated with?
I don’t mind getting into food shows as I am a big-time foodie as most people know. But after some experience in the industry, I am prepared to carve my niche in horror and psychological thriller filmmaking as it piques my interest to a greater extent. So, for the mean time that I am working on my series - and there is a lot of work to be done - there won’t be any food shows at the moment. What are your plans for the future? One of my huge goals is to finally get into doing a feature film. Until then, I will be focusing on creating intriguing narratives for my series and then getting them on board onto OTT platforms and channels where they will be premiered exclusively. But of course, no one wants to look to the future with COVID-19 around. So, I am just focusing on the present for now. How do you maintain the fine balance between work and home? Well I have a good team to begin with - they make the process easier and smooth sailing. And I do have three kids at home - earlier it was difficult as they were younger, but now they are older and they are more responsible as well as understanding. But I do ensure their needs are met before I leave for a shoot. We also keep in touch through video call so I can see what they’re doing and if they have eaten, etc. In between shoots if I’m not too far away, I also make sure to go back home and check on them if I can. On weekends we spend time together. My kids are very important to me so I always make sure there’s a balance.

INTERVIEW
You are a star for youngsters, but can be such a nightmare for parents… Yes, I get that a lot (laughs). But hopefully, by the end of this interview, I’ll be able to change this opinion that parents might have. Was acting a childhood dream? How did the entire journey come about? I’ve always wanted to become an actor, since childhood. But my dad was very practical about the fact that I had no chance. Usually parents keep saying things like ‘ki mera beta laadla, mera beta hero’, but he was very realistic and he told me that it may not be possible for me because there are thousands and lakhs of strugglers who come every day and it’s very difficult for this one person to get into Bollywood. So I always had this one acting dream which died when I joined engineering. But you know there’s still that one wish in your heart. So the first subject I failed in engineering that was the day I decided that I have no other choice but to go ahead with acting.
i t h g u a L As one of the top-billed Indian YouTubers, Ashish Chanchlani has been ruling the web-space with his brand of humorous content. From spoofing Bigg Boss to making an appearance in the Chris Hemsworth-starrer Hollywood blockbuster Men In Black: International… Ashish has done it all. In an exclusive tete-a-tete with Aakanksha Naval-Shetye, the YouTube sensation talks about competition, Bollywood dreams and his journey to the top
And you came up with your vines… I started off with vines in 2014 with short videos, then went on to Instagram, then YouTube. I realized that people were stealing my content, so coming on YouTube became a necessity to protect my content… I was like wow, you mean you can do what you like and make money, so that was like huge for me. They became quite a rage! To be honest I have no idea how the followers increased, how it all went viral. I look back and I remember people started tagging me, they started following me and how the content just went viral. People used to see my videos on WhatsApp, on Instagram on Facebook which was the primary platform back then… So, it was a hilarious yet thrilling journey for me… Milestone in your journey… The first time that I crossed 10,000 that was a very big thing. Nothing beats that feeling, the first time that numbers turned into an alphabet. And I used to search on google to see how a crowd of 10,000 looks like and I was like wow I have this many people following me! How did your parents take your switch from engineering to moving into this risk zone as a profession? So my parents always knew the fact that I wanted to do this. I was always very passionate about it. They were not really sure if I am skilled. And to prove them that skill that ‘okay mum and dad dekho people can hold on to me, watch me, enjoy my content,’ I had to show them that this

is how my content was going viral and they were very thrilled. Also because it was evolving and happening in real time too, like there were people clicking pictures with me and recognizing me, they realised this was amazing. So it’s been a smooth ride? Not really. There was a time when I wanted to quit this internet career because the first two years from 2014 to 2016 I did not earn anything. I was like it is good, I’m enjoying doing it, it was my passion too, but I wasn’t making any money and it wasn’t paying my bills. But then my dad told me that a day will come when Bollywood stars will be on internet, so what are you quitting it for now. And thank God I listened to his advice to go ahead because he could envision the future of the internet. And right now I have 22.9 million subscribers on YouTube and more than 9M on Instagram and if you roughly total it up then more than 3 crore people know me, so now a time has come when if I want to go out, I can’t because people recognize me. And it’s a good feeling. I feel blessed.
the creative juices going. My fans and followers raise the expectations each time, so I try to live up to atleast 95 per cent of their expectations if not 100 per cent. The ideas have to come naturally, I don’t chase. My content is natural and an input of many diverse, but real situations… It’s a perspective of a lot of people and a lot of age groups. Good things take time. Do people always expect you to be funny? Yes, they do. But I have moods too and people do respect that as well. I would say 60 of me is always sarcastic and 40 per cent is zoned out.
t u o Loud! So who are the inspirations behind your characters? My female characters are all exaggerated versions of regular women. Like I’ve never met the kind of female characters I play on screen. The character of the Dad is also exaggerated and loud, but that’s my brand and people love it.
Which one’s your favourite? My dad’s character… that I love the most. He is savage, blunt and always critical about his son.
What’s your equation with fellow YouTubers? People think there is a lot of competition, but if you really see us, we are more like colleagues and buddies, all working under one space. Bhuvan (Bam) or Carry (Ajay Negi of Carryminati) or Harsh (Beniwal) or then Prajakta (Koli)… Whenever we meet it’s a party, and the amazing thing is that we keep referencing each other and each other’s works. Harsh and I have a sporty relationship of roasting each other, so for us it’s a fun banter. And people love it.
First reaction you get from fans… Well, fans are mostly like we have seen your video so many times and they tell me about the scenes right down to the minutest details… I enjoy interacting with them. I don’t roast them… I may tease them a bit, but I never cross a line with them. So it’s fun. And the parents… The parents are actually also quite sweet. They are always like my son or daughter wastes so much time watching your videos, they are such huge fans, and then they are like you are an amazing personality, but thoda cuss words control please. So there’s taareef and they are honestly critical. But I do want to tell them that there is content I have created on FB which is very clean and caters to them. So there’s absolute clean fun content for the young and parents need not complain any more. I make separate content which is family-friendly. My generation is comfortable with the cuss words, but I am responsible when it comes to family viewing. Are there days when you struggle for content? Well, it is not always easy. But it has always been my motto to take a break in-between, so that it gets

INTERVIEW So nothing like your dad? Not at all. My dad has some peculiar characteristics, but 90 per cent is not my dad. And all who know him know that he’s diametrically opposite of the guy in my videos. What’s with your love for Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU)? That is a huge part of my life. I love it. People wonder why I tell them so much about how much I love them. But it’s genuine. It’s been a dream… like these superheroes have been my escape from reality to the fantasy world. These stories, the characters, they matter to me a lot. If I take a break, a huge part of it is me watching their movies with my favourite people. It’s a silly dream, but even when I met Joe Russo (director Avengers: Endgame) for the megaevent in Mumbai, I told him to just cast me and that I want to be in the MCU, even if it’s as an alien in the background and he agreed. I think he was joking, but it was very sweet of him.
On female attention: I get quite a bit and I am blessed and very happy to get it. Every guy who gets female attention is very blessed to get it.
Can we expect a video on them? Why not? I would love to make a parody of Indian marvel superheroes. Maybe one day I will. Do you make New Year resolutions? I am a resolution kind of a person when it comes to making them, but not the kinds to see them through. And every year it’s the same. Lose weight, brush up my acting skills, be synced and have a disciplined life but I fail all the time. May be this year is a wake-up call for me. A lot of stars like Shahid Kapoor have been a part of your videos too… Yes, a lot of them have shared that they would love to feature in my video and they want to enjoy being themselves. And Shahid Sir was amazing and lifted my video to another level. He is a professional and yet such a fun person to work with… he was just enjoying. So it’s nice to get compliments from such talented people. And your Bollywood dreams? I don’t really know if Bollywood would like to feature me or take me, because of course they shower love and they are very keen, but I am waiting for that one right project. Right now I am concentrating on my YouTube. I am trying to do something different on it, like my last video, The Dealer ACV Hatke. I had very less expectations from it but I got tremendous appreciation. People loved it, girls loved it. So it was an experiment I wanted to do and it worked. I have this box full of so many ideas that I want to explore on my channel, what nobody else has ever explored. This is not to be in competition or reach out, it comes from my creative heart that I want to. If Bollywood offers me something that I think is worth it then definitely. Any advice for budding YouTubers? Just be you! Have your own style and bring your environment to the world. Bring your unique flavor, the diversity. But don’t come for money. Be patient it’ll come, but keep it secondary. What is the one thing you’d never do as a social media star? ...Is to use controversy to attract attention or gain followers. That’s not me, I want my content to do that.
RAPID FIRE ONE SUPERHERO YOU WISH YOU COULD BE Dr Strange. It’s my dream that I would attend a comic-con someday wearing Dr Strange’s costume and the Eye of Agamotto necklace.

Dubai audiences are hungry for local talent …Says the International CEO of the Art of Shaving and Dubai-based playwright, actor, TV host and producer, Asad Raza Khan. ARK straddles several worlds with great ease and panache. He tells Manju Ramanan how his love for theatre started it all! When did you fall in love with the stage? It all started at the age of seven when I played the lead in a children’s version of Aladdin. That was it. Not looking back from there. What were the setbacks towards a career in the Performing Arts and how did you deal with them? The biggest challenge in Performing Arts is breaking into the scene and then making it sustainable from an income standpoint. I think people believe that there is a shortcut which turns out to be the biggest obstacle. In the world of social media, people just want over-night success. I made sure to focus on growing my skill set first, building personal branding simultaneously, working very hard on the projects that came my way, and having complete faith in God during the process. You have a day job that is about facts and figures? How do you wire both sides of the brain so well? This is one question I get asked a lot. I think it is just that my day job stimulates my mind, and acting stimulates my heart. So honestly, separation is not that difficult as both have an integral role to play in my life, and the skills in one also help with the other. They become complimentary. How did Dubai take to your acting prowess and why did you start Tall Tales Productions? Dubai is an extremely inclusive and
encouraging market. I started acting here in 2012 when I moved from Switzerland. I did a few theater shows and it is a very loving industry. Honestly I was showered with more love than I had imagined. Be it from the fraternity, the audiences, the media agencies, or the patrons. My advice to anyone starting new would be to start here. Not only do you get to strengthen your skills, but the love and encouragement given by the community gives you the wings to fly higher. I started TTP to make original local content across various platforms (theater, TV, web, etc.) that is aimed to showcase what we have in UAE and to put it in front of the world.
audience? Dubai audiences are multi-cultural, transient, and hungry for local content. What sets them apart is that they are still discovering what they like. Having said that, the appetite for experimental and original content is extremely high. Give them good and unique stories based in the region, and they will shower you with a lot of love! What one needs to watch-out however, is that UAE makes you so used to ‘top quality’ in the life it provides, that quality for anything you do needs to be par excellence! So to focus on fewer is better, as they are also un-forgiving towards sub-standard material!
Tell us about your future films, TV shows and plays? I’m currently working on a broadway production called Betrayal written by Harold Pinter. This officially licensed version will hit the stage on April 2021 in UAE. We will be shooting the third season of Comedy Adda which is the most successful locally produced TV and web-show in Q1 of 2021 as well. It combines night time television, with standup and improvisational theater. I completed a Pakistan Movie Yaara Ve pre-COVID, and that will hopefully release in 2021 when the situation is better. Lastly, along-with you, Manju Ramanan, I will write and produce Made in Karama which is an original comedy based in Dubai to premiere with the EXPO in 2021.

This includes the National Award winning film Wrong Side Raju (2016) that starred him in the lead and became the first Gujarati film to have won this award after two decades‌ But it is his sterling outing in Scam 1992 : The Harshad Mehta Story that has catapulted him to PanIndia fame and put the spotlight on him as the breakout star of the OTT. Aakanksha Naval-Shetye talks to the actor about his journey so far, his path-breaking role in the SonyLIV crime-drama webseries directed by Hansal Mehta and his upcoming projects 38 FILMFARE MIDDLE EAST January 2021

30/12/2020 9:13 AM
With an IMDB rating of 9.4 your web-series Scam 1992: The Harshad Mehta Story is one of the top-rated shows in the world. Did you expect the kind of recognition that the show has brought for you? To be honest I was sure of this being a good product, because a lot of experienced people are involved in it. When Hansal Mehta is directing something, it has to be really interesting and it was something I always believed. But that it would go on to become a hit at this level... that was amazing. It has changed a lot of things for almost everybody involved.
And you’d be at complete ease pulling off a say a romantic genre too? Oh yes, I have done all of that. I feel that more than anything else, my genre is realism – playing real characters and that’s what I have been doing on stage also, and my films too. I have also done characters that are a bit over-the-top, that feel surreal. See, that’s also a type of story-telling and as an actor I keep myself open to stories. I would love to experiment in all types of storytelling and genres.
From being a renowned name in Gujarati cinema and theatre, this web-series has shot your popularity Pan-India... It’s been a very organic growth for me. I started with theatre in Surat, then I came to Mumbai where I started doing mainstream, yet experimental theatre. Then slowly regional cinema started, then came playing secondary characters in Hindi cinema and then this. So, nothing has happened overnight. The journey has been organic in its progression and I have enjoyed every phase of it.
Are you a director’s actor? So far I have been blessed to be able to work with people who’ve been open to collaborations. That gives us the space to add value as actors. But at the end, my vision has to be in tandem with the director’s vision. See, first the writer puts his story on paper, then it gets to the director’s brain as his vision if they are two different people. Then it gets transferred to the actor’s brain and in these two handovers there can be a transmission loss. So how I look at it is as an actor is to minimize this loss and be true to the actual essence of the characters that was originally planned and envisioned.
Has there been a change in the kind of roles coming your way post Scam 1992? The biggest change that is happening is that I’m getting a lot of mainstream offers. Makers are offering me a lot of lead protagonist kind of characters and it is largely because they have seen me in this series which is worth five films… The content is nine-and-a-half hours. So I’m sure this has given confidence to other filmmakers also that I will be able to pull off such roles in the lead capacity, so yes there are a lot of offers coming my way from films to OTT web-series. I’ll have to be conscious about whatever I do or choose next, but there is no thumb rule. I have come to the conclusion that whatever I have been doing based on my gut feel and instinct, I should just continue doing that. The script is what excites me to be a part of any project and then the team and the filmmaker because their passion can turn anything into gold. So that’s the way forward for me. I am still open for all experiments that I kept doing all this while. Be it with new filmmakers or new genres. I’m not afraid of trying something new. The only difference is that now I’m getting to choose from mainstream and that’s the best thing right now.
How was it working with Hansal Mehta? He is completely an actor’s director which is an interesting thing really. He understands those finer nuances that an actor wants to bring, so he lets you explore that space of the character freely as an actor. It’s very important for any actor to have that director’s faith and trust so that you can explore fearlessly. And he lets you do that. His approach is very collaborative. It puts a positive pressure on you and you want to do justice to the character. What about directing? I have been directing on stage, and have done quite a few plays. But on OTT or films, I’ve not thought of it much, just concentrating on the acting for now. Which has been the most challenging role for you so far? Theater has had lots of it. We did an adaptation of Roshomon and that character was very intriguing complex and tough. On screen, playing Harshad Mehta in Scam was challenging because holding a character for nine-and-a-half hours, is a different ball game. Plus we were constantly playing with different age groups, so there was a different voice and body language, and you have to be constantly aware. We don’t shoot linear, so
This is the best time for actors, as the OTT has brought forth a different world. It doesn’t have the pressure to perform on the first three days of release. Like the FridaySaturday-Sunday picture chali ki nahin, that pressure is gone. And that gives a lot of freedom to makers to experiment with subjects, story-telling and the actors. there were days when we shot for three age groups in one day, one after another, so that got challenging. But you pulled it off with ease… I rediscovered my faith that we stop acting and just react and that’s the key. So, what are the upcoming films and projects? Raavan Leela that I had shot for before Scam was my first Hindi film as a protagonist and that will be releasing soon. And there are other mainstream projects which will be announced in due time.

Life Lessons with the Khan!
For over two decades, life-coach Arfeen Khan has helped over 6,00,000 people in over 47 countries undergo personal and professional transformations. Apart from CEOs, industrialists and students, he has worked closely with Bollywood celebrities and has seen them up, close and personal. Manju Ramanan catches up with Arfeen Khan in Dubai! When did you realise this is your path? I grew up in London and did a bit of NLP but my major training was watching my altruistic parents. I am not a therapist but I knew how to ask powerful questions and then people would introspect and respond. I knew how to switch them on. I realised that people usually told stories from their past. I wanted them to tell stories that looked forward and not drag them back. The vantage point is important. I realised that I was happier when I helped someone else transform than when I did it for myself. So I started helping people. I moved to Mumbai to do seminars and they became very popular there

How did Bollywood happen? When I wrote my first book, I wanted Amitabh Bachchan to give me a testimonial. I went to his house, knocked on the gate and gave it to the security guard. I did this for 40 weeks at a stretch, and sometimes would go twice a week with a bound manuscript. Needless to say, I became friends with the security guard and his manager Rose. One day I received that testimony from him. There also came a time I then went to his home to present my book. But he didn’t remember writing the testimony! (Laughs) Your perspective of a Bollywood star would be different than most people? Yes, and I have made some genuine friends. Many of them are misunderstood, but are beautiful minds and caring souls. One of the most brilliant people from Bollywood that I have met and interacted with, is Manisha Koirala. I was with her at her wedding in Nepal – a lady of such great intellect and beauty - someone who had a hard life, but
I grew up star-struck in London. There was a Sunrise radio station there and we heard that Govinda is coming to town. My friend Harish and I posed as press and reached the hotel’s reception. He had a notepad and I had my camera. We knocked on Govinda’s door and said we were from Sheffield press (all made up) and he gave us an hour-long interview! We also met Amitabh Bachchan this way. There was a combination number code in the radio’s front door and we saw someone type it and replicated it. We met Big B and the next day’s newspaper had a picture of me, Harish and my sister with Mr Amitabh Bachchan!
is a very good person. I have read rubbish written about stars and feel angry that people misunderstand so many of them. Hrithik Roshan is such a caring man and dignified in his silence. He has risen like a phoenix and succeeded and like how! He is a friend and has helped me lose weight. I met a leading actress on my way back from Kuala Lumpur after an awards night who told me that her biggest wish was to go to a super-market with a trolley. I have had Ranveer Singh mimic me at an event because Rekhajee was a bit delayed and he stepped in to entertain the crowd. He is very funny and has so much love to give. Ranveer Singh will make you fall in love with him – he has that rare quality. Govinda told me ‘ek din duniya tumhare peeche bhaagegi’. His words hold true! You have vehemently opposed the ‘stay positive’ mantra that is most commonly seen around? I totally do. How can you be positive all the time? It is unreal and mentally unhealthy. Women in Bollywood go through a lot because of a certain shelf life, age, competition and more. There is tremendous sadness amongst them but there are several smart women who have made good use of their opportunities. Shilpa Shetty and Preity Zinta for instance created businesses out of their popularity and acumen. The lot is so resilient. I remember John Abraham tell me once that my film career is my last movie. I then, start again. You acted in Mere Brother Ki Dulhan? Yes, that is the only film I did. I play Katrina’s (Katrina Kaif) autistic brother. Yashraj’s Shanu Sharma messaged me on FB one day and we started chatting. She then told me that someone at Yashraj wanted a session with me and it turned out to be an audition. After two attempts they asked me to come back after practice and I consulted a drama teacher Irfan who taught me the skill. I went the next day and bagged the role. The funny thing is that the second lead comes up to me and tells me that she is very happy that they chose an autistic man for the role! I told her I wasn’t! (Laughs).

He is a lot of people. Philosophical, somber and intense on one side, then, fun-loving, carefree and refreshingly irreverent on the other. Over the years, Amit Sadh has transformed himself and lived several lives to evolve into the man you watch onscreen today. A boy who left home at the age of 16 years to rough it up on the streets, worked as a house-help, a watchman, a bodyguard and then became a successful TV actor. At the peak of his success, he gave it all away to start from zilch to rise up, Phoenix-like, to be a film-actor of reckoning. Not only has he conquered the OTT space, his web series’ immense success has paved way to his future films – all of which are carefully chosen and inspired from real-life characters.The latest feather in his cap is the Filmfare OTT Award 2020 for Best Actor in a Supporting Role in a Drama Series (Male). Excerpts from Manju Ramanan’s conversation with the immensely talented Amit Sadh who is in Dubai, training for his next role as a paramilitary officer!
R
You are all set to redefine the alpha male cliché? ight from childhood, I was reprimanded by my dad if I raised my voice at people or was rude to them in the presence of a woman in the room. She could be a house-help or a staff member. Which is why, I abhor the objectification of a woman onscreen. I didn’t have an easy relationship with my dad but in hindsight, I realise that he sowed the seeds of how I think about people around me. Being an alpha male is a stereotype. We are all about our energies. Yes, there is a difference between being self-contained and self- obsessed, being protective not possessive, calm but strong and self-assuredly confident. And I arrived to all this after being the complete opposite of what you see today. I have been a jealous boyfriend, a man who couldn’t control his temper, been called a loser. You rise above them all and keep these firmly under your feet! You are attracted to powerful roles? Yes, they are powerful but understated. People have told me that I have a restrained way of acting. I
follow my followers on Instagram, chat with them, have conversations with them. That gives me perspective. I am happy to be entertaining people and be showered by so much love and admiration. You’ve had an unusual life? Wasn’t there any fear then? It was way back in my teens. I mustn’t have known fear. But I was desolate and have attempted to end my life too. When people talk of mental health today and suicide, they should know that people take that drastic step only when there is absolutely no hope they see. I call it the coma state and for me, the phase lasted for two years. But I am glad that I tided over it and can talk about it today and inspire people to live a mentally healthy life. How did you tide over your toughest phase? When you surpass a bad phase, life is beautiful and you are calmer. I endured violence in my life and I was engaged in fist-fights, moments of rage myself. I went through deep healing to quell my painful past. On set, I am very calm but in front of the camera, I burst into my role. I ploughed deep within myself. I didn’t give up. I fixed things in my sub-conscious and planted my seeds of hope there. I watch animals and am deeply inspired by them. I don’t mean the beast-likeness about them but their usual demeanour. They don’t care how they look and are true to their mannerisms, their habitat and psychology. There are some birds that complete one cycle around the world in three generations. They are truthful to the pattern God has created for them. If you stop judging yourself, the world accepts you for who you are. I aspire to be in the purest form I was created in and that takes courage and stubbornness. And Zidd! (smiles) Are you writing your book? I have a few ideas. I am a little lazy and I am not complaining. Movies are taking a lot of my time and my fans tell me that they love listening to me and talking to me about life as a survivor. Look, I didn’t sell myself or an ideology. My life has been my biggest learning lesson and as a house-help, a watchman and living on the footpath, I did see life up, close and personal. I saw how people behaved with security guards, servants, new actors and staff and I decided that I would break the norm. My staff is my team. I believe that an actor should be treated in the same way an accountant, a teacher or any professional is treated. The audience makes us and we need to be in sync with them, not distance ourselves with our stardom. I will write a book on the many gurus I met in my life. The OTT platforms have empowered actors like you? You have to be empowered yourself to succeed on any platform. Yes, the OTT has given us a world showcase. The characters are the main starts in web serials. At one point there were only heroes and heroines and they would mock at supporting actors. I have faced body shaming, been told that there is something in me that isn’t right. Today I feel that people have evolved – including publicists, journalists and writers. I am happy that there is improvement even if it is a scratch of a change. If you were to meet a younger Amit Sadh, how would you reach out? I have a few Amit Sadhs around me. I just put a hand on their shoulder and not box them. I didn’t have that. I was in my 20s and there were seniors who were in their 40s and they didn’t support me. I have met people who hold grudges for over 15 years and I wonder why. I feel sorry for them. The best power in the world is human service. And in this service my dreams are being fulfilled. I would like a fairer system when it comes to cinema with more respect to women and support to new-comers. January 2021 FILMFARE MIDDLE EAST 45

You chased R Madhavan and Abhishek Bacchan in Breathe 1 and 2. What about Breathe 3? I am very close to Maddy. He is my secret advisor and I have called him when I was hassled or stuck in life. He has been a big support system. He came on his own from TV and survived. I have a lot of respect for him. Abhishek Bachchan and he are two different people and I pick the best from them. Their methodology of working is different. In Season 2 Abhishek’s character is admitted to an asylum. Watch out for Season 3 for the finale! You play a paramilitary guy in Zidd. Are you drawn to these characters? I am drawn to real characters. Zidd is an essence of me. It is a real story of Deep Singh Sengar of the Special Forces, one of the most elite commandoes of the Indian army. My dad was in the army and I understand this world. Zidd that releases on Zee 5 on January 20th, is also the story of the army behind the army – the wives and mothers of the family and what they go through when the soldiers come back injured or disturbed. It is a seven-part series. As for softer roles, I played my softest roles in Shakuntala Devi.

From talking about their love for shopping in Dubai to talking about their recovery from COVID 19 and taking up the cause of plasma donation thereafter, from Gurmeet revealing his next big Bollywood films to Debina’s entrepreneur plans… the duo shared all this and much more in a candid chat over a few cuppa coffees.

Promptly the two actors find their coffees served, even before they place their orders, leaving them much amused as the staff did get the coffees right. “Debina loves the coffee here and we are their regular patrons, so I guess they must’ve known,” smiles Gurmeet. The husband-wife are here in Dubai catching up with friends, shopping and vacationing. The duo reveal that Dubai happens to be one of their favorite holiday destinations and they do fly here quite often. “It’s really close home and makes for that perfect getaway. Also we love the shopping here, and there’s always something for everyone,” says Debina. However this time they planned to do more than just shop! “Every year it’s only been about shopping, so this time we hoped to do more brunches, catch up with friends and also fit in the shoots for Debina’s YouTube content,” says Gurmeet. Being in constant spotlight as TV’s power-couple, we ask them about balancing that reel life and real life equations and they reveal that it’s very simple. “What you see is what you get. It is not like we are someone different on the social platforms and we are different off it, so there’s nothing to hide from our fans,” says Gurmeet. The couple among the fans is also known for its downto-earth nature and friendly access. “I think it’s best to stay natural as that’s what makes us unique to the fans

As a couple, we are more like best friends. We both are very different individuals but fit perfectly like puzzle pieces. So we both are open to each other's suggestions all the time and that 's the secret
and followers. Whether it is talking about fashion or fitness, we keep it real and I suppose that’s what our fans like the most. There’s nothing fake and people connect with that easily. Also the fact is that with fans, we don’t treat ourselves like stars. We interact with fans, and we give them time,” adds Gurmeet. “That has also helped us maintain a healthy balance not only personally, but in everything we do,” explains the actress who shot to fame with Gurmeet back in 2008 when they starred in Ramayan as Sita and Ram respectively. The two have since, come a long way. She has made her mark on TV with several shows, while Gurmeet has found his calling in Bollywood with films like Khamoshiyan and Paltan to his credit. The actor is currently awaiting the release of his first film as a solo lead titled The Wife! The shooting of the film that was kickstarted weeks before the lockdown began had to be postponed and was completed in September. “It’s a psychological thriller produced by Zee Studio. The shooting did get delayed due to the global pandemic, but we were among the first films to go on the floors post the lockdown (in September) and complete it,” shares Gurmeet, adding that it was good to see that the studio had so much faith and confidence in him as an actor. “In a solo film, the onus lies completely on the lead, and there’s so much money and faith riding… So there’s more pressure than in a film that has multiple heroes! And I’m glad that Shariq Patel (CEO, Zee Studios) has shown that faith in me,” he adds. Meanwhile, Debina had completed shooting her track in the daily Aladdin – Naam toh Suna Hoga. She has since been working on her YouTube content as an influencer and taking that role more seriously too. Recalling her experience of reporting back on sets, Debina shares that there was a constant worry and fear about COVID-19 even though everyone was taking precautions with PPE kits, masks and sanitization on the sets. “It was late June, when the TV industry rolled back to shooting and I shot for over two weeks, but it felt like there was so much risk involved. Doing a daily soap under these pressures is stressful. You come back home and gargle and steam. Though we
think it was very brave of the TV industry to get back to working, as so many people depend on the work,” says Debina. “That’s true, especially since there are so many technicians and junior artists whose daily livelihoods depend on the shoots. So, it was good that there was work for them,” adds Gurmeet. Talking about her role as an influencer, Debina insists that it has been an organic move for her and it comes with a lot of responsibility that she takes very seriously. “I never promote anything that I don’t believe in and it’s always about promoting things that I know would help the followers and our fans,” explains Debina. She adds, “India has realised the need and importance of influencers marketing, so we get a lot of offers to promote different products, but I only give a nod to products that I have tried and tested and can vouch for. It’s a huge responsibility and my team is working on all aspects of it with me. I am really enjoying doing this.” Besides Dubai the couple reveals that they love Milan, Paris and London. “Guru loves the fashion choices and experiences that Milan lends in terms of trends and style,” shares the actress. Talking about their myriad roles, the couple shares that they have been lucky to not have been typecast in their roles post Ramayan. “We have done so many varied roles from thrillers to comedies that people don’t look at us as the characters alone, but as actors too.” The couple also supports two girl children financially back in Gurmeet’s hometown. “That was Guru’s idea. His parents take care of them, like local guardians,” says Debina. The two have also been involved with a noble cause these past few months. Having successfully recovered from COVID-19, the duo feel that it’s their responsibility to help encourage and motivate people with antibodies to donate their plasma for the patients in need. Gurmeet says, “We are the lucky ones to have recovered and God has been kind, so now it’s our responsibility that we should go the extra mile and help others in need. We both donated plasma, and we as actors can inspire others to do the same.” The two reveal that the recovery also gave them a window to travel here. “It’s good to see people here in Dubai are taking such great care, sanitising and masks.” January 2021 FILMFARE MIDDLE EAST 49

I see Indian OTT content get global
recognition in 2021 and a few shows that will be popular across the world for the merit of its content and viewership and not necessarily awards There is so much democratization of content in the webseries space that innovation is natural. Our future content for this region will involve converting Hindi dialogues into Arabic with the help of machines. For example, the machines will be taught to impersonate, say John Abraham’s voice in Arabic and the dubbed version will have that voice as against sub-titles, that are common now. The Arab region likes dubbing as opposed to China that likes subtitled content. The OTT platforms have shown how writer’s rooms are crucial and I am thrilled that content is celebrated in a big way across the world. I see more innovative content and technology integrate in the OTT space. Eros Now has 46 new content titles including 13 originals and 33 film premieres across 8 languages for the region.

30/12/2020 10:49 AM
You were recently in Dubai… What did you enjoy the most while here? Yes, my recent trip to Dubai was amazing. I enjoyed it there and worked too. I went there two days before the shoot for some crazy shopping. And for my shopping spree, we went to Dubai Mall, Meena Bazaar, and the old markets like Gold Souk. I even got a ring for myself. I had a great experience working and shopping in Dubai! You have shot for your new single in Dubai… Yes, the song depicts the beauty of a girl, but it’s as yet untitled. The shooting experience was amazing especially because the weather was really pleasant. We shot for it in the desert safari in all the elaborate outfits. And the indoor shoots were fun too. I have always loved the vibe of Dubai and as usual my experience while shooting there has been full of fun and excitement. Your song ‘Mann Bharrya’ is a popular lounge hit in Dubai too… Yes, ‘Mann Bharrya’ is quite popular in Dubai lounges. The song talks about domestic violence that a lot of women suffer from because of their husbands. The wife is expressing her feelings through the song.
as a Punjabi artiste, and I love that. Everywhere you see there is a presence of Punjabi music, be it any Bollywood movie, there is always a Punjabi track. 90 per cent of the movies consist of Punjabi songs, and even baraats are incomplete without Punjabi songs in any state. So Punjabi songs are doing great, and I hope it stays that way! What is that one life lesson that being on Bigg Boss Season 13 taught you? So, most prominently what Bigg Boss has taught me is self-love and has helped me see a lot of things clearly. So much has changed after Bigg Boss. It has definitely changed my perspective for good. Which artiste would you like to collaborate with or co-star with? Who is on your wish-list? If we talk about movies specifically, the one artiste I would love to collaborate with is Ayushmann Khurrana. I have always admired his acting skills, his natural approach towards his characters, and his wonderful choice in movies that he has done. And as far as the music industry is concerned, I am already working with a lot of amazing people.
I think life is a little less
How was your experience of collaborating with Harrdy Sandhu? I have worked with Harrdy Sandhu in the song, ‘Soch’ and that too at the time when people weren’t giving much importance to videos in the Punjab music industry, but after ‘Soch’, the trend of videos started again. The team we worked with on this song is the same team that we shot with for ‘Mann Bharrya’. And it was an amazing experience. People still love the song, but after ‘Soch’ we never got an opportunity to collaborate. Though recently I bumped into Harrdy in my gym, so let’s see if we can work something out soon. The Punjabi music scene is very happening. How different is it from the Hindi music industry? Which one do you prefer? Obviously, I’ll go for the Punjabi industry as it is my base. Whereever I am today is all because of the Punjabi industry and the people of Punjab. I am known
interesting without love and romance, so yes, I am a romantic at heart!
What is your idea of love and are you a romantic at heart? For me, love is being there for someone, be it your family, friends, life-partner, or anyone you love. And I believe we all have a little romance inside of us, and I am definitely filled with it. I think life is a little less interesting without love and romance, so yes, I am a romantic at heart! If you had to go on a date in Dubai, what would your choice be? So, last year when I was in Dubai around Diwali, I explored a lot of lounges, but I don’t know if they will be a good option for a date. I think in Dubai one can plan a romantic date on a yacht. And I have always fantasized about breakfast in a hot air balloon, so I think it could be a perfect option for a date. What’re your upcoming projects and plans? I have shot two music videos in Dubai recently. The first song has been sung by me. It’s written by Bunty Bains and the music is by The Kidd. And the second song is with singer, Saajz with whom I have already worked in the past in Allah Khair Rakhe. Both the songs are directed by Sandeep Sharma. Then I will be shooting another song in Punjab. We are also in talks for a Punjabi film, and we might start shooting for it in the beginning of 2021. January 2021 FILMFARE MIDDLE EAST 59

We chatted up with Dubai’s very own DJ Scorpio! How did you choose this profession? It is that extreme passion for music that turned into a profession. What was your Aha! moment? Undoubtedly my ‘Aha! Moment,’ was when I was featured as the official DJ for the Filmfare ME anniversary in Muscat along with several celebrities. The feather on the cap was also performing for all cricket leagues, Asia Cup, T10/T20, etc. What is your personal choice in music? Deep House Bollywood. How do your rate the music scene in Dubai post-Covid? Dubai is all about glamour, fame and parties. I’m sure the party scenes which is the backbone of the entertainment industry in Dubai, will be back in action big time post Covid. What plans for the future? Working on releasing official remixes of songs. 68 FILMFARE MIDDLE EAST January 2021

ِ كونك ابنة جندي؟ هل بسبب نعم ،الكثري من االنضباط بسبب كوين ابنة جندي .حتى يف يوم األحد، ال أستطيع االستيقاظ يف وقت متأخر ،ولكن ليس ذلك السبب فقط، بل ألن يوجد الكثري من األشياء التي أرغب القيام بها. من ضمنها مامرسة رياضة الغولف؟ نعم أحب هذه الرياضة وأمارسها يف الكثري من األيام. هل املشاركة يف فيلم سرية ذاتية أو فيلم يتحدث عن الرياضة عىل قامئتك؟ وماذا بيدي؟ (تضحك) يجب أن يأيت هذا املرشوع إيل .إن وصلت إىل النص أو القصة الصحيحة ،بالطبع سأحب أن أشارك.
“القاعدة التي اتبعها هي التركيز على عملك ،هذا ما أعيش من أجله .وهذا السر وراء كل السالم الداخلي والسعادة” “أشعر بالسعادة تغمرني عندما أنظر إلى الوراء، ولكن ألكون صريحة ،لست ذلك الشخص الذي ينظر إلى الوراء .أنا طموحة وممتنة للوسط الفني الذي ُي قدم لنا لنمثل عدة أدوار مختلفة ،لتجربة أفالم جديدة ،والكثير .لزال الحماس في داخلي والزال لدي الكثير ألقوم به”.
