Developing my own stories: Shweta
Actor Shweta Tripathi started the year by signing her next project, which she will be announcing soon. She is also working on developing her own concept and stories.
“As an actor, who is constantly surrounded by stories and good writing, story ideas keep popping out every now and then. I came up with two ideas, which I closely believe in and I thought it's time to invest some energy and heart into them and see these ideas bloom into full-fledged stories,” said Shweta.
“I am aware that it will be a time-consuming process but I want to put in that effort into developing these stories because I believe in them. I will actively participate in conceiving the story ideas with the help of Ashish and I am hoping by mid-2020 I am in a position to speak more about them,” she added.
I can never pay back what Kangana did for me at that tender age. My parents used to faint everytime they saw my face. But she stood by my side, and after years of struggle when things got better, she buried her face in my lap and cried. I am glad she did because strongest people often forget to share their pain.

Veteran actor Bharati Achrekar feels that Indian television continues to lack good content, as a result of which the young audience is moving towards web shows.
She says, “Good content is a rare thing in television these days. Mostly stories revolve around a single character. I don't blame anyone, even they have to survive. There are so many channels, so there is a tough competition. Also, people's taste has changed owing to western influence. You have to cater to the urban and the rural audience too, whose mindset and tastes are different.”
No complaints in life: Brad
Hollywood actor Brad Pitt is enjoying his life and says he has no complaints.
While walking the Screen Actors Guild Awards red carpet on Sunday, the actor spoke about taking stock of his life now. “It's a beautiful day here in LA. We got it well, we got it really good,” Pitt said.
He continued: “I got friends, I got lovely kids, I like my coffee, I like my dogs. I've got no complaints.”
Pitt has six children with his former wife, actor Angelina Jolie.
Earlier this month, the actor won for “best supporting actor” at the National Board of Review Awards in which he said his “goals in life now are pretty simple” as he listed standard aspirations of being happy and staying healthy.
