Raina recalls the win
The upcoming episode of Indian Pro Music League is surely going to be nothing short of a delight for the viewers as the ambassador of UP Dabbangs, Suresh Raina will be seen sharing the stage with Bollywood actor Parineeti Chopra. While the show was filled with power-packed performances from the captains and team members of Punjab Lions and UP Dabbangs, the highlight of the evening was the celebration of Team India winning the Cricket World Cup 2011, 10 years ago. While paying a tribute to this glorious moment and to the Indian Cricket Team, Suresh Raina couldn't help but go down the memory lane reminiscing the biggest moment when he felt even more proud to be an Indian!
Recalling the memory, Suresh said: “A win in a team sport is not just of an individual but of an entire team which comprises coaches, team members and every single person who is connected with the team. I still remember the moment when we were in our last over and everyone was praying with their heart and soul that we win this match. As soon as that happened, it was the most surreal experience for us as the entire stadium was singing Vande Mataram with their mobile flashlights swaying in the air. That is the moment all of us had a feeling that we had truly made our country proud.”
Coming together to depict their spirit of patriotism, the singers and captains of both the teams came on the stage to sing to the tunes of Vande Mataram as they collectively paid a tribute to the Indian team and the country respectively. Even superstar Parineeti Chopra couldn't stop herself from taking Suresh Raina's autograph on a bat post the performance. What is sure to excite viewers in the upcoming episode will be Parineeti and Suresh presenting a cricket and badminton fusion of sorts where Parineeti will be seen marking shots with her badminton racket while Suresh brings his classic cricketer style on the floor.
Juhi’s emotional connect
Zee TV's Hamariwali Good News is a primetime drama that presents a heart-warming and unique role reversal between a daughter-in-law - Navya (Srishti Jain) and her mother-in-law — Renuka Tiwari (Juhi Parmar) to give their family the much-awaited ‘Good News'. Over the last couple of weeks, we've seen a lot of drama take place at the Tiwari household. In fact, the show took a three-month leap recently and left everyone astonished after Renuka and Mukund (Shakti Anand) returned to find out that their son, Raghav (Aditya) and daughter-in-law, Navya are heading for a divorce. Renuka was in quite a fix. She not only had to restore the Tiwari sadan to its glory as well as save Raghav-Navya's relationship, but also get ready to deliver a baby.
Playing a seven-month pregnant woman with a huge baby bump is a task, but also immersing yourself in such dramatic sequences makes it even more difficult. But Juhi Parmar has been acing it! In fact, the pregnancy track has even made the actress reminisce about her real-life pregnancy. As Juhi Parmar mentions, “I have played a pregnant woman in an earlier show as well, however, during that period of time, it was different. I hadn't experienced pregnancy in real life, so I didn't know how you feel when you're a mother. But this time around, I have been a mother, so I know how you feel when you're pregnant and it did make me nostalgic. When you have been through the journey, how I have now, it becomes more natural to enact scenes and pick up the body language as I know what it is like to be pregnant. The post leap track has really made me nostalgic, especially with all the beautiful memories of my pregnancy coming back to me.”
She further added: “Personally, motherhood is my best experience till date. As an actor, when I am enacting sequences where I am pregnant, it becomes much easier to relate to the scenes as the emotions come naturally. While the sequences might be similar to other tracks I shoot, being a mother, the pregnancy scenes bring a little more attachment and emotional connection to the whole track and I am enjoying shooting as always.”
In the meantime, with Aditya and Navya heading for divorce, will Renuka be able to save their marriage? Will she be able to resurrect the Tiwari Sadan again? And what would happen to Mukund and Renuka's relationship, will it be affected, or would they be together?
