This is the best North-South pair ever. Meghna Gulzar directs Kareena Kapoor Khan (straight up from The Buckingham Murders) and Prithviraj Sukumaran (fresh from the commercial success of L2: Empuraan) in ‘Daayra’.
So Good
Soha Ali Khan
She works out, eats healthy, and is asleep by 10PM. No wonder Soha Ali Khan looks so good in her forties. On screen in her latest release, she is quite scary as the antagonist in Chhorii 2 on Prime Video. With three hours of make-up, often acting against a green screen, and being trussed up in a body suit, the end product was worth it. With roles in series such as Hush Hush on Prime Video and Kaun Banegi Shikharwati on Zee5, Soha is doing just fine.
Chill Factor
Taapsee Pannu
When she’s not feverishly racing through genre-defying movies, she finds time to do good. It’s going to be a cruel summer, and actor Taapsee Pannu hopes to make it a little cool for those who need it the most. She was seen distributing fans and water coolers to the needy. We just hope she ensured they have an electricity connection.
