Avika Gor gets nostalgic as her debut show Balika Vadhu reruns on Colors

Avika Gor was just a 11-year-old girl when she started her acting career by playing the lead role of child bride Anandi on Colors’ show Balika Vadhu (2008-16). The show went on to become a huge success across the globe and Gor became a household name in no time.

Now that the show has returned for a rerun on Colors amid the Coronavirus lockdown, Avika Gor is ecstatic. Her fans are also rejoicing and have been sending her a barrage of messages and old show stills on her social media.


Excited Gore tells a publication, “I started acting at the age of 11 and it became my school of learning as I would watch how other actors work. From learning my dialogues to rehearsing with everyone to playing games with the crew and then making sure that I was studying in my free time, it all used to be so much fun. Surekha (Sikri) Ji used to get us lots of chocolates and it was like one beautiful family and indeed a life-changing experience. I am pretty excited about its rerun. It will take me to the flashback and relive those memories again and also laugh at watching my younger self on screen.”

When asked about how she is dealing with the ongoing lockdown, the actress shares. “Not being able to shoot is bothering me because I love my work and I have already started missing it. I hope everything comes back to normal and we resume our work and life like we used to,” says Gor. The actress is presently in Hyderabad where she had gone to shoot her next film. But the shooting had to be stopped midway due to the Coronavirus scare.

Nick Jonas says it's 'scary' to imagine daughter Malti in showbiz after what he and Priyanka faced

Nick Jonas is no stranger to fame. From performing on Broadway as a child to becoming one-third of the Jonas Brothers, he’s spent most of his life under the spotlight. His wife, Priyanka Chopra, entered the world of glamour as a teenager, winning Miss World at 18 before making it big in Bollywood and then Hollywood. So, it’s only natural that people are curious whether their daughter, Malti Marie, might follow in their footsteps.

During a recent appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show, Nick opened up about the possibility. When asked whether he’d be okay with his daughter getting into the entertainment industry at a young age, he paused before saying it’s a decision she’ll have to make herself. While three-year-old Malti already enjoys singing, Nick admitted that the idea of her stepping into such a demanding field so early is unsettling.

Akshay Kumar tells King Charles to watch Kesari 2: “You’ll know why the British should say sorry”

Akshay Kumar isn’t asking for an apology. He just wants the British to look back and really see what happened. With his upcoming film Kesari Chapter 2 hitting screens on April 18, the actor is urging both the UK government and King Charles to watch the film and confront a dark chapter in colonial history.

The film, directed by Karan Singh Tyagi and based on The Case That Shook the Empire by Raghu and Pushpa Palat, tells the story of C. Sankaran Nair, a Malayali lawyer who took legal action against General Dyer and the British government after the Jallianwala Bagh massacre of 1919. The massacre when British troops opened fire on a peaceful crowd remains one of the most horrific events of British rule in India.
