"I had a breakfast with Kathy [Kennedy] that I thought was just breakfast. And then it was mentioned, so I thought about it. I loved the story, and I was like, “OK.” Things then happened quite quickly, and it felt like I was instantaneously on a stage being introduced by Sharmeen. It honestly took me back to being 20 or 21, however old I was, when [Star Wars: The Force Awakens] was announced. I was petrified, I was overwhelmed, I was really nervous but the response was really wonderful. And I’m genuinely really excited about the next one. I haven’t read anything, but I know the story. It’s really worth telling, worth exploring, and I think people will be excited."

Rekha Scrapped an Interview After It Was Done, I Was Speechless,’ Says Rajeev Masand: ‘She Said I Don’t Want To…’

Veteran actress Rekha, celebrated for her powerful performances and timeless style, is known to rarely give interviews. Former journalist Rajeev Masand recently shared an intriguing experience with the legendary actress, revealing how she once scrapped an interview after it was completed.

In an interview with the YouTube channel Shaardulogy, Rajeev Masand recounted, “We did an interview with Rekha ji a couple of years ago. The whole interview was done and then she is like, ‘I don’t want to do this, can we scrap it?’ I was speechless. First of all, she rarely gives interviews. She did a few with me. One we did many years ago and one a couple of years ago. The interview is just lying there; she said we will do it again. These are the people who are in the pursuit of perfection and excellence.”

Defending Rekha's decision, Masand added, “In Rekha Ji’s case, she is someone who comes out rarely. If you are not liking the way you are looking or sounding, I understand you want to be in control. They are all in the pursuit of perfection.”

Recently, Rekha was spotted at the wedding reception of Sonakshi Sinha and Zaheer Iqbal, where an emotional moment was captured. In a video shared by Sonakshi, the bride can be heard comforting Rekha, saying, “Rona mat,” as the actress met her and welled up.

On the professional front, Rekha was last seen in a cameo role in the film "Yamla Pagla Deewana: Phir Se." Her last significant feature film appearance was a decade ago in "Super Nani," where she played the role of Bharti Bhatia.

Nora Fatehi Says All Bollywood Heroines Have Started Looking Same | People News

Mumbai: Fatehi is back at hitting headlines once again and this time in her latest interview claimed how all Bollywood heroines have started looking the same. At the Melbourne Film Festival, Nora got candid with former journalist Rajeev Masand and spoke about the aesthetics of Bollywood heroines today. She spoke about her challenges in fitting into Bollywood and the changing aesthetics for women…

Nora Fatehi compared Bollywood to a high school clique, stating, "If you don't show yourself...

Nora Fatehi, well-known for her dancing and acting ability, is also known for her open demeanor. She recently commented on her experiences in Bollywood, comparing the industry to a high school clique. She did, however, acknowledge that her previous experiences had made it easier for her to manage this atmosphere. Furthermore, she stated that foreign actors who struggle in the industry frequently do so because they do not learn Hindi or other local languages.

During the 15th Indian Film Festival of Melbourne, the actress spoke candidly with film critic and writer Rajeev Masand about her journey in the Hindi cinema industry and the hardships she faced along the way.

Nora Fatehi, who was born and reared in Canada and spent several years in Saudi Arabia, reflected on her high school experiences in various countries, where she observed kids who had created exclusive cliques that were hostile to newcomers.

Drawing on her awareness of that relationship, she finds Bollywood to be comparable and feels as if she is revisiting that milieu by entering the industry. However, she used her experience to maneuver her way through the film industry.

She stated, "It's (Bollywood) a little bit worse than high school because most of these cliques grew up together from the start." But once you've done it, it seems like you can do it again. Because you're an outsider, there's no way in unless you show yourself, learn Hindi, assimilate, and demonstrate to them that, "Hey, I can be like you guys." The Madgaon Express actress added that she does not blame Bollywood, describing it as a firm where success demands knowledge and experience. While her other models went out to clubs, she focused on studying the industry and creating graphs to critique it. Through her investigation, the Bharat actor discovered that newcomers who struggle to retain their fame frequently fade after a year or so. She went on: "That's also when I understood one thing: if a foreigner came into Bollywood and they didn't make it, most of the time it's because they didn't learn the language (Hindi) or didn't assimilate." Nora explained that some international actors try to stress their American or Canadian identity, hoping that others will recognize it. However, their language abilities and accent frequently indicate their position as outsiders, which may add to their lack of success in the industry.

The Newcomers Roundtable 2018 With Rajeev Masand

[hirakdesherrani]

Just finished watching Rajeev Masand’s interview with Tamannaah Bhatia, Parul Yadav and Kajal Aggarwal on their remake of Queen in Tamil, Telugu and Kannada. A very insightful interview. Aside from the process of the remake and other things, few things I noted:

I know this conversation is really old, but seriously its 2019 fgs, and still the North Indian knowledge of South India is embarrassing. Like the actresses pointed out, somehow North Indians just find it difficult to grasp the idea that South India is *not* a homogenous unit (”Madrasi”🙄). However, its not just South India. As a Bengali, born and brought up in Delhi, I have witnessed this clubbing first-hand. All the five (including Telangana) states of South are “Tamil”, Bengali, Assamese and Odia (all very different btw) are clubbed together 🙄, while the Eastern states are clubbed together as “North East” (Manipur and Mizoram are the same, no fucks given 🙄). I had to actually sit down with a person and explain that just like Bhojpuri and Maithili are not the same, and Punjabi and Haryanvi is not the same, Telugu and Kannada is not the same either. Same goes for Assamese and Bengali, or Tripuri and Manipuri. 

Another interesting thing they discussed in the interview was how all three females were Mumbai-born girls themselves who joined the South Indian film industry. Not just these three but we also have Taapsee (who’s from Delhi) and quite a few actresses start out in the South. Conversely, so many South Indian females have made their careers in Bollywood/Hindi Cinema like Aishwarya and DP. This reminded me of what one of my batch-mates said in college, that South India doesn’t have pretty females so they get girls from the North 🙄, to which I replied that just two days back he was almost salivating over DP in Race 2, and she is a South Indian 😒. Interestingly, while girls crossover from North to South, the rate of male actors doing back and forth between North and South, is relatively less. Why tho?

They also talk about the arrogance of Bollywood film makers and audience in the belief that everyone in India has watched the Bollywood film, so remakes are no issue; however, like the actresses pointed out, its not completely true. When I was studying in Hyderabad, I noticed that my Telugu friends were way more excited for their Telugu films than Hindi cinema, and rightly so. My own grandparents were more into Bengali cinema, despite living outside West Bengal, in North Indian hinterland. “Regional” films (sigh!😒) don’t become less attractive because of Hindi films.

Oh, another thing I noticed: Kajal’s put-on accent. Girl, why? Also, these actresses were way more comfortable with each other and mature conversationalists than the actresses in the Roundtable.😒 

I just wish I didn’t have the subtitle issue, otherwise I would be so down with South Indian films. Unfortunately my choice is limited to Hindi and Bengali, and the occasional English film.
