Avid viewers of Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives watch it as much for the star cameos as for the peek it affords into the inner world of Bhavana Panday, Maheep Kapoor, Neelam Kothari and Seema Kiran Sajdeh. While the latest season, titled Fabulous Lives vs Bollywood Wives, has the usual celebrities—Gauri Khan, Ananya Panday, Karan Johar, among others—Saif Ali Khan makes a brief appearance. It is a pleasant surprise to see the reticent actor on the show, which is a face-off between the swish set of Delhi and Mumbai.    Bhavana believes Khan was the perfect choice for the reality series. “Saif is in the third season, like we had Shah Rukh Khan in the first and Ranveer Singh in the second. I have known Saif for years, he has worked with Chunky [Panday] and Neelam. Saif was the right person ...

At times, adoring fans heaped their attention on the look-alikes, apparently thinking they were face-to-face with the real Chalamet.

Imagine the magic when not just one, but seven stars dazzle together on Karwa Chauth! After treating fans to the iconic sibling duo, Kareena and Karisma Kapoor, Netflix is all set to bring the queens of Fabulous Lives vs Bollywood Wives Season 3—Maheep Kapoor, Seema Sajdeh, Bhavana Pandey, Neelam Kothari Soni, Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, Shalini Passi, and Kalyani Saha Chawla—straight to the laughter terminal. This episode promises nothing but glam, grace, and guilty pleasure conversations! As the laughter flows, Kapil Sharma playfully compliments the wives on their massive fan following, then cheekily asks, "Have you ever figured out who’s hooked on the show more—men or women?” Responding immediately to this question, Neelam Kothari Soni shares, “Actually, men enjoy the gossip.” Bhavana Pand...

I try not to be judgmental, but I have a thing for correct nomenclature and proper pronunciations. I’ll let slide anyone who pronounces the “L” in “calm,” and I’ll give a little bit of slack to anyone who initially struggles with “quinoa.” But if you insist that “Uber” (as in “You’ve had too much to drink. Let me call you an Uber”) is pronounced “Yuber,” that’s when the red mist descends. I also get a little crazy when someone pronounces David Bowie’s last name like it’s the front of a boat. Despite being spelled “Gahan,” the name of the lead singer of Depeche Mode wants you to know that it’s “Dave GAHN.” And the guy out front of Queens of the Stone Age? Contrary to anything you’ve heard, it’s Josh HOMmy. (Trust me. I’ve talked to the man.)I get even more exorcised when someone insists on ...

Reality star Maheep Kapoor, who is known for ‘Fabulous Lives vs Bollywood’, has shared whom she got her camera-friendly genes from.  The recently released season of ‘Fabulous Lives vs Bollywood’ saw the debut of Maheep Kapoor’s parents apart from the three fiery socialites. As a portion of the season was shot in Delhi, the audience got a glimpse of Maheep’s family and the touch of warmth that this new entry gave. While Maheep was happy to have her parents share the screen with her, she was also a bit nervous as she was worried about her parents’ comfort on camera. She said, “We are used to having our lives in the limelight as that’s the industry which we are a part of, but for my parents, I wasn’t sure if they would feel comfortable in front of the camera. However, as it turns out, they...

Seema Sajdeh, Maheep Kapoor, Bhavana Panday and Neelam Kothari Soni weren’t exactly excited about including three outsiders in Fabulous Lives vs Bollywood Wives, after fronting the past two seasons. Were they feeling territorial? Maybe, admits Sajdeh. “We were a little resistant because we four can be clan-ish. We’ve been friends for long. You are in your comfort zone when you reach your 40s-50s, and to let new people in your life is daunting. But as we hung out with each other more, I had a lot of fun,” says the fashion designer of her new co-stars, Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, Kalyani, and Shalini Passi. The third season sees a face-off between the Bollywood personalities and the Delhi socialites. Sajdeh enjoyed witnessing Sahni, daughter to Neetu Kapoor and the late Rishi Kapoor, making her ...

Descrease article font size Increase article font size A New Mexico judge has upheld her decision to dismiss an involuntary manslaughter charge against Alec Baldwin in the fatal shooting of a cinematographer on the set of a Western movie. In a ruling Thursday, state District Court Judge Mary Marlowe Sommer stood by her July decision to dismiss an involuntary manslaughter charge against Baldwin. She said prosecutors did not raise any factual or legal arguments that would justify reversing her decision.“Because the state’s amended motion raises arguments previously made, and arguments that the state elected not to raise earlier, the court does not find the amended motion well taken,” the judge wrote, adding that the request was also untimely.A s...
