    Tanya Mishra Shines Bright: Bold, Honest, and Unstoppable Star

    New Delhi [India], May 24: Tanya Mishra’s rising popularity in the world of entertainment cannot be attributed solely to her talent—it’s her vulnerability and honesty that make her all the more relatable.

    Model, actor, entrepreneur – Tanya Mishra is a multi-hyphenate star who is brimming with exceptional versatility and charm. Already making waves in Bollywood and beyond, she has made a place for herself as a talented performer in the industry. Be it music videos or web series, brand endorsements or photo shoots, Tanya brings in freshness with her distinctive style. While her much-anticipated album song, Rehabara 2.0 continues to captivate audiences with its fresh beats, we also await her upcoming web series Chidiya Udd.

    In the meantime, excerpts from an interview with Femina.

    What does success mean to you?

    Success to me, is about growth – both personally and professionally. It’s not just fame or fortune, but the peace of mind that comes with knowing you’ve stayed true to yourself while achieving your goals. Success means remaining consistent in my work and creating landmarks in my career with every new venture I undertake. In the true sense, if I am able to deliver the result expected from my work and make my audience feel connected, that’s what defines success.

    What sparked your interest in the field of entertainment, and when did you realise it was something you wanted to pursue?

    I’ve always been drawn to storytelling – whether through acting, content creation, or fashion. I realised I wanted to pursue it seriously when I felt the rush of connecting with people emotionally through my work. That moment of impact – it was everything!

    As an influencer, how do you stay relevant and authentic?

    I stay grounded in who I am. Trends come and go, but people connect with honesty. I make sure that everything I share, whether glam or real-life – is truly me. That authenticity keeps me relevant in a world full of filters.

    “Whether I’m acting, creating content, or even just talking to my audience – I’M ALWAYS TRYING TO COMMUNICATE SOMETHING MEANINGFUL” – Tanya Mishra

    What are some challenges you’ve faced professionally and how did you overcome them?

    Breaking stereotypes, dealing with rejections, and constantly being under public scrutiny has been tough. I’ve learned to turn criticism into growth, and silence the noise by focusing on my craft and mental wellbeing.

    You’re a multifaceted personality. What role defines you best?

    Honestly, I think I’m a storyteller at heart. Whether I’m acting, creating content, or even just talking to my audience – I’m always trying to communicate something meaningful.

    How do you balance personal and professional life?

    It’s not always easy. There have been times when I’ve lost myself in the chaos. But now, I prioritise my mental health, set boundaries, and make sure to spend time with people who truly know me beyond the spotlight. It’s hard to balance personal and professional life when you become ambitious to achieve something big. You need to choose when, where, and how much energy you want to invest in your career – that’s how you start balancing your life.

    Who or what motivates or inspires you?

    My family keeps me grounded and motivated. While my loved ones give me unconditional support, I feel more responsible for what I do in my professional life, wanting to make everyone proud through my achievements. And then, there’s my younger self – I do everything today to make her proud. I’m grateful for my audiences and stakeholders who trust me and encourage me to deliver the best results. Also, stories of people rising against the odds inspire me deeply.

    What’s the one thing you aspire to do personally?

    To live a life that leaves a mark not just in headlines, but in hearts. I want to be remembered more for how I made people feel than what I achieved.

    What has been the most surprising or unexpected lesson you’ve learned in your life?

    That vulnerability is a strength. For the longest time, I thought I had to be ‘perfect’ to be accepted. But I’ve found that being real and showing my scars has built the strongest connections.

    What is your fitness mantra?

    Move with love. I don’t believe in punishing workouts. I treat my body with kindness – whether it’s yoga, dancing, or a brisk walk – it’s all about feeling good.

    What sets you apart from the crowd?

    I think it’s my willingness to show the unfiltered parts of my journey. People see the glamour, but I’ve always shared my struggles too – and that honesty resonates.

    How would you describe your personal style?

    Effortlessly bold. I love mixing elegance with a hint of rebellion. Fashion, for me, is self-expression – it changes with my mood but always reflects my essence.

     What’s one message you’d like to give to youngsters?

    Don’t chase the spotlight; chase your purpose, with consistency. If you stay authentic, the right kind of light will find you. Embrace your journey, including the struggles they shape you.

  • Farha Naaz’s Comeback Isn’t About Films—It’s About Purpose: From Silver Screen to Street Safety

    Farha Naaz’s Comeback Isn’t About Films—It’s About Purpose: From Silver Screen to Street Safety

    New Delhi [India], May 21: For decades, Farha Naaz’s sudden departure from the film industry remained a quiet mystery. A celebrated actress of the 80s and 90s, she stepped away from the screen at the height of her stardom, leaving fans speculating for years about her retreat from the limelight.

    Now, a new chapter reveals a powerful truth — Farha Naaz didn’t disappear, she redirected her spotlight. Today, she stands as the co-founder of FRST Foundation, a Mumbai-based nonprofit working to make India safer and more inclusive for blind and disabled individuals — all in collaboration with her son, Fateh Randhawa.

    And remarkably, every effort, every jacket, and every raincoat is provided entirely free of cost to those in need.

    A Family Legacy, Reimagined for Impact

    Fateh Randhawa, Farha’s son, hails from a legendary lineage — the grandson of iconic wrestler and actor Dara Singh, and nephew of acclaimed actress Tabu. But rather than continuing the family’s cinematic legacy, he has chosen to redefine it. Alongside his mother, he co-founded FRST Foundation with a vision to serve those often left unseen — literally and figuratively — in India’s public spaces.

    Together, the mother-son duo has turned empathy into action, designing and distributing safety gear that has become a lifeline for many.

    India’s Invisible Crisis, India is home to over 35 million blind and visually challenged individuals, yet the vast majority are forced to navigate chaotic roads, silent electric vehicles, and overcrowded transport systems without any form of visual identification or protection. With 1,89,481 accident-related deaths in 2022, and nearly half being pedestrians, it is the blind and disabled who bear the brunt of this danger.

     

    FRST Foundation aims to change that reality, not with charity — but with design, dignity, and visibility.

    A Design-Led Safety Revolution At the heart of the Foundation’s efforts are specially designed reflective jackets and raincoats created specifically for the blind and visually challenged. These are not generic handouts — they are thoughtfully engineered safety garments featuring:

    •    A distinctive blue color, chosen with input from the community, to help the public easily identify and assist those in need.

    •    High-quality reflective tape, visible from afar even in low light, improving safety near traffic and in emergencies.

    •    Features that make them life-saving in disasters like fires, stampedes, and earthquakes, where visibility can determine survival.

    And most importantly — they are distributed 100% free to the community, with no cost to the recipients.

    Real Impact, Documented Transparently To date, over 3,000 blind and visually challenged individuals have received these jackets and raincoats through FRST Foundation’s events.

    Distribution drives have been conducted in collaboration with respected institutions such as:

    •    National Association for the Blind (NAB)

    •    Blind People’s Association (BPA)

    •    NSD Industrial Homes

    •    Kamla Mehta School for the Blind

    •    Victoria Memorial School for the Blind

    •    Kumudben Dwarkadas Vohra School for the Blind

    •    National Federation of Visual Impaired Persons (NFVP)

    Each campaign, donation, and milestone is shared publicly via Instagram (@frst.foundation), where the organization maintains a unique commitment to transparency and accountability, also through their website. Official certifications are made available to ensure complete clarity for supporters and partners.

    Expanding the Mission While the Foundation began with a focus on the blind, its mission is rapidly evolving. Work is underway to develop a color-coded wearable identity system for people with various disabilities — including hearing, intellectual, and physical impairments — to ensure broader public recognition, support, and inclusion.

    This is not a temporary project. It is the beginning of a long-term, systemic shift in how India recognizes and protects its disabled population.

    Farha Naaz’s True Role Today, While Farha Naaz may have walked away from the film industry, she has stepped into something even more impactful. Her work through FRST Foundation is quietly changing lives, and doing so without spectacle or applause.

    There are no brand endorsements, no paid celebrity promotions, and no profit-driven agendas — just pure service, done with empathy, at scale, and always free of cost to those who need it most.

    As many search for meaning in visibility, Farha has chosen to give visibility to those who’ve never had it.

    She didn’t vanish. She evolved. And through this evolution, thousands of India’s most vulnerable are finally being seen.

  • Culturist Sundeep Bhutoria to attend historic Cannes screening of restored Satyajit Ray classic

    Culturist Sundeep Bhutoria to attend historic Cannes screening of restored Satyajit Ray classic

    Kolkata (West Bengal) [India], May 17:  Prominent Kolkata-based culturist, social activist, and trustee of the Prabha Khaitan Foundation, Mr. Sundeep Bhutoria, will attend the highly anticipated screening of Satyajit Ray’s restored masterpiece Aranyer Din Ratri (Days and Nights in the Forest) at the 78th Cannes Film Festival on 19th May 2025.

    This marks the first-ever Cannes screening of the 1970 classic, which will be showcased in a newly restored version. The event will reunite, after 55 years, the film’s legendary cast members, Sharmila Tagore and Simi Garewal, whose presence will add to the historic significance of the occasion.

    Expressing his enthusiasm, Mr Bhutoria said, “I am deeply honoured to attend the premiere of the restored Aranyer Din Ratri at The Cannes. This is my first visit to the festival, and it is all the more special because of my long association with the Dutta family, the original producers of the film. Unfortunately, Esha Dutta, who collaborates closely with the Prabha Khaitan Foundation and its associate organisations, is unable to join due to a family emergency.”

    Mr Bhutoria also acknowledged the efforts behind the restoration, stating, “I extend my heartfelt gratitude to film maker and archivist Shivendra Singh Dungarpur and the Film Heritage Foundation for their pivotal role in this extraordinary restoration project. I have known Sri Dungarpur personally for over a decade since he started the project with a missionary zeal in 2014. He has contributed immensely to safeguard endangered celluloid films, promote film literacy, and train archivists. Their dedication ensures that Ray’s genius continues to inspire future generations.”

    Aranyer Din Ratri, based on Sunil Gangopadhyay’s novel of the same name, explores themes of urban escapism, class and gender dynamics and human relationships with unparalleled depth. The film follows four urban friends – Asim (Soumitra Chatterjee), Sanjoy (Subhendu Chatterjee), Hari (Samit Bhanja), and Shekhar (Rabi Ghosh) – who escape their mundane city lives for a weekend trip to the forests of Palamau (Bihar). Their journey becomes a metaphor for self-discovery as their interactions with rural life and two local women – Aparna (Sharmila Tagore) and Jaya (Simi Garewal) – expose their urban pretensions, insecurities, and existential dilemmas.

    The film is celebrated as one of Ray’s finest works, blending psychological depth, social commentary, and lyrical storytelling. The film’s screening at The Cannes – a somewhat belated recognition compared to Ray’s other films – underscores the festival’s enduring reverence for the Oscar-winning auteur, whose films remain a cornerstone of world cinema.

  • Courage in Adversity: The Journey of 26 November

    Courage in Adversity: The Journey of 26 November

    New Delhi [India], May 17: In the current climate of uncertainty and unrest, the theatrical landscape in India faces unprecedented challenges. The looming specter of conflict, particularly between India and Pakistan, coupled with a turbulent political atmosphere, has cast a shadow over the cinematic experience. As audiences remain glued to their television screens, absorbing the latest news, the anticipation surrounding the release of the highly awaited Marathi film, 26 November, is met with an unfortunate backdrop of societal tension.

    26 November” is not just another film; it is a bold narrative woven into the very fabric of our social consciousness. The film, helmed by the debut director, Sachin Urade and produced by the dynamic duo Anilkumar Jawade and Nilesh Onkar, addresses a plethora of pressing issues—poverty, corruption, bureaucratic malaise, and the alarming ignorance surrounding our Constitution. The date, 26 November, marks the day in 1949 when the Indian Constitution came into effect, and the filmmakers aspire to elevate this date to the same reverence as Independence Day and Republic Day, advocating for it to be celebrated as Constitution Day.

    The film boasts a stellar cast, featuring talents such as Aniket Vishwasrao, Sayaji Shinde, Dr. Jui Jawade, Bharat Ganeshpure, and Vijay Patkar, among others. Shot over three years across the diverse landscapes of Vidarbha, the film showcases the commitment of its creators to deliver a high-quality cinematic experience, supported by some of the best technical minds in the industry. The music, composed by the talented Amar Desai, blends emotional depth with stirring melodies, culminating in a powerful title track that resonates with the film’s core message.

    The marketing strategy for 26 November” is nothing short of revolutionary.

From strategic social media management to ground activation events and brand collaborations, every aspect has been meticulously crafted to ensure maximum visibility. The collaboration with prominent brands such as Hathway, Den Movies, and NDTV Marathi has resulted in a remarkable media value of three crores, setting a new benchmark for brand partnerships in Marathi cinema.

    The film’s trailer was unveiled in a grand event at Cinepolis, graced by the esteemed Mahesh Kothare, who lauded the film’s production quality, likening it to the polished narratives of South Indian cinema. This was followed by a monumental audience engagement event on Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Jayanti at Jambori Ground in Worli- Mumbai , where an astonishing 15,000 people gathered to witness the trailer and interact with the star cast—a testament to the film’s resonance with the public.

    Despite the Herculean efforts behind the film’s promotion, the current socio-political climate poses significant obstacles. Anilkumar Jawade, the first time Producer, reflects on his dream of creating a film that resonates with the common man, emphasizing the importance of constitutional awareness. He remains hopeful that, despite the challenges, the film will find its audience through digital platforms, allowing its vital message to reach homes across the nation.

    Girish Wankhede, who has orchestrated the film’s marketing strategy, acknowledges the irony of the timing. “Sometimes, you find yourself in the wrong place at the wrong time,” he states, expressing his determination that the story will ultimately prevail. “A good story never dies; it has its own way of reaching the audience.”

    In an era where the cinematic experience is often overshadowed by external turmoil, 26 November emerges as a poignant reminder of the power of storytelling. It embodies the spirit of resilience, advocating for awareness and engagement with our Constitution at a time when such values are paramount. As the film navigates these turbulent waters, it stands as a testament to the unwavering belief that art can inspire change and foster hope, even in the bleakest of circumstances.

  • Sayantani Putatunda: Bengal’s Untamed Storyteller the Film World Forgot to Discover

    Sayantani Putatunda: Bengal’s Untamed Storyteller the Film World Forgot to Discover

    New Delhi [India], May 8: In the realm of Indian storytelling, where cinematic voices often drown in the race for formula-driven hits, one name stands out as a beacon of authenticity, depth, and narrative brilliance—Sayantani Putatunda. Revered as an uncrowned queen of thrillers and hailed for her compelling storytelling, Sayantani remains a mystery to the film industry, despite her towering contributions. Born in 1985, her literary journey began even before her teenage years, and today, she boasts an impressive 26-year-long career filled with critically acclaimed works.

    Though she prefers the literary corridors over red carpets, her influence in cinema is quietly profound. Her work on Shankhachil, the National Award-winning film directed by Goutam Ghosh, carved her name into cinematic history. The film not only bagged the 63rd National Award but also won two Bangladesh National Awards, a Filmfare (East), and was showcased at the Montreal Film Festival. Internationally recognized actors like Marco Leonardi were moved by its depth, and Ghosh himself declared, “Sayantani is a versatile, extremely talented author…capable of challenging many contemporary authors.”

    Despite such accolades, Sayantani has remained at a distance from the film world. Why? In her own words: “I love to avoid the ego, tantrums and judgemental attitude of the film world. For me, professionalism means hard work and 200% devotion, not money.” This firm stance is a rarity in today’s creative industries, where compromise is often the currency of success.

    Yet, when she does step into the audiovisual world, her touch is unmistakable. Her web series “Nandini”, which soared to a 9.2 IMDb rating, stands as a testament to her gripping storytelling and rooted cultural sensitivity. Director Mir Falaq praises her as “a gifted storyteller with vivid narrative deeply anchored in Bengali culture. Her words don’t just tell stories—they stir emotions.”

    Her narratives are layered with strong characters, emotionally complex plots, and a voice that blends the brilliance of Agatha Christie with the boldness of Sidney Sheldon. Readers and collaborators alike describe her style as “addictive like cocaine”—a literary force that pulls you in and refuses to let go.

    She’s not entirely a stranger to commercial cinema either. Her screenplay for the Bengali film “Jio Jamai” proved her versatility, earning box office success. Yet, she remains selective. “Writers are manufacturing stories for hit formula,” she says. “I know how to write stories, but I can’t manufacture them.” This statement reflects the essence of her artistry—raw, sincere, and deeply personal.

    Celebrated personalities echo this sentiment. Director Jenny Sarkar of Boond and Continuity once remarked, “She is a hidden treasure for the film industry, but still undiscovered. A very hard nut to crack.” Actor Ajay Kumar Nain, famed for Adalat, described her as “a wonderful human being, true friend & a great writer.” And Mrs. Dolly Bose Roy, mother of actors Ronit and Rohit Roy, said she was “very proud of this brilliant novelist and even more wonderful person.”

    While the Bengali literary world continues to bask in her brilliance, the question remains: Will cinema ever fully embrace this treasure island of talent? Sayantani’s answer is simple—”If someone can approach me with genuine friendship and emotional honesty, I’m all in.”
