Hope you are having a nice weekend. Enjoy it while it lasts, which is like in a couple of hours!
The blind item below is so easy that even Stevie Wonder can figure it out, provided that he knows who these people are. Anyways, let’s go…
This blind item is what most of you have figured out as soon as the teaser of this actress’ upcoming film was released. So, congrats y’all. You managed to outsmart KebabJo. What a shame! His storylines are becoming so predictable now!
All that aside, who was the other actress that this filmmaker was considering? It’s mentioned in the blind item.
Just earlier this week, the young actress was asked about the backlash regarding this unusual pairing. She said that there is a reason why she was paired opposite this in-his-50s superstar. Now, we can’t wait to know what is that reason!
Was the filmmaker looking for an actress, who might also look like she is the child of this superstar? Because supposedly, it’s a story about how this old man marries someone, who is still considered a child!
Also, the actress mentioned in the same interview that all she didn’t get any backlash or hate when it was announced that she was staring in this renowned filmmaker’s project. She might be living in a bubble! A Dharma Bubble…
Anyways, check out the not-so-hard-to-guess blind item from Mid Day.
Also, check out this really funny video. Thanks to the reader, who shared it. Can’t believe they managed to make him look like an actual NaaginJo!
Bollywood Blind Item
This actress is enjoying the benefits of a good mentor
This leading filmmaker’s protege has bagged roles in two big productions on his recommendation. The young actor is known for her acting chops and has bagged several awards for her performances.
But despite her success, she is keen to push her way into big films with a little nudge from her mentor. One of the films, which is being helmed by a Bollywood filmmaker known for his fine detailing and character-driven stories, had wanted another female actor.
But as soon as the mentor got wind of it, he went armed with the footage of her next release, which he has produced, to convince him to sign her. As for the other project, the mentor’s earlier association with the filmmaker helped. Well, some people have all the luck.

Actress: Alia Bhatt
Mentor: Karan Johar
Recently, during an interaction with MidDay, when Alia was asked about the film, she stated, “Bhansali is a visionary. People are too quick to judge. There is a plan in place and a reason behind the [unusual] casting. I am thrilled to be working with Salman.
Even I never thought this combination [working with Khan and Bhansali] is possible. It will be an intriguing journey and Salman is genuinely warm and kind. They are a magical duo together and I am blessed to be in it.”
Earlier Alia was asked about the criticism she and Salman received after Inshallah was announced. To which she replied, “I didn’t get any criticism. I think I got a lot of excitement. I think a speculation is also a form of excitement in a way and why shouldn’t there be speculation.
There should be and at least I am not bothered by that and I don’t think Salman or Bhansali sir are bothered. I think this is a filmmaker who has given us very good films, he is someone who we all are very fond of and I think we should just trust him with his vision.”
