<description><![CDATA[  &quot;Its A Great Opportunity to Share the Screen with Poonam Dhillon Ma’am&quot; — Delbar Arya Shares Insights On Working With The Actress For Their Upcoming Film MadhaniyanActress Delbar Arya is making waves in the Punjabi film industry, and her upcoming release Madhaniyan is all set to take her career to new heights. Touted as the biggest family drama of the year, Madhaniyan is a heartwarming tale of love and togetherness, starring Neeru Bajwa, Dev Kharoud, Nav Bajwa, and Delbar Arya in prominent roles. Helmed by acclaimed Punjabi filmmaker Nav Bajwa, the film has already sparked excitement among fans post its poster release. But what makes Delbar Arya even more thrilled is the opportunity to share screen space with one of India cinema’s most beloved and iconic actresses — Poonam Dhillon. For Delbar Arya, the experience has been nothing short of a remarkable opportunity.“It’s a huge opportunity for an actor like me to work with such a veteran actress. Poonam Ma’am and I have most of our scenes together in the film where I portray the character of Jazz and she is my Nani in the film. We have a cute daughter, grandmother bond in the film.  I still remember, when I saw her for the first time, I was in awe. She’s so beautiful — it felt like age is just reversing for her. She is known for her charm, grace, and commanding screen presence.&quot;“I am so grateful for this opportunity. She’s one of those rare actresses who knows exactly what she wants to deliver. But what touched me most was how grounded she is. While shooting, she never makes you feel like a junior artist. She takes time to guide you, to suggest things, and even appreciates your work. That kind of humility and support from someone of her stature is truly inspiring. I’m looking forward to how the audience reacts to seeing us together on screen. It’s been a very special journey.”As Madhaniyan gears up for its release, fans are eagerly anticipating the fresh chemistry and a lot of family drama but with twists and turns. Delbar Arya, who has already been turning heads with her stellar performances and magnetic presence, is set to carve a niche for herself with this film.With powerful performances, an emotionally resonant story, and the union of seasoned stars with rising talents, Madhaniyan is poised to be a cinematic celebration of family, tradition, and timeless connections. ]]></description>

<title>New Queen of Bollywood? Akanksha Sharma STUNS in ‘Kesari Veer’ With Her Fiery Debut!</title>

<guid>https://www.thebollywoodtimes.com/new-queen-of-bollywood-akanksha-sharma-stuns-in-kesari-veer-with-her-fiery-debut</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ A new warrior Queen has arrived in Bollywood—Akanksha Sharma. With her jaw-dropping debut as the valiant warrior Rajan in the historical epic Kesari Veer, Akanksha has not just entered the film industry — she’s conquered it.In a year buzzing with talent, Best Debut of 2025 belongs undoubtedly to Akanksha Sharma. With her very first film, she has etched her name into the audience’s hearts and set a gold standard for debut performances.Kesari Veer, a high-octane period drama, demanded a performer who could balance intensity, grace, and raw emotion. Akanksha delivered all that and more, making her portrayal of Rajan — a fierce archer-warrior with a painful past — one of the most unforgettable characters of the year.From the moment she drew her bow on screen, Akanksha embodied power. Her archery scenes weren’t just technically sound — they were poetry in motion. Every arrow she released seemed to pierce more than just enemies; it struck chords deep within viewers. Her posture, precision, and poise elevated the battle sequences to a level rarely seen in Hindi cinema.What sets Akanksha apart, however, is not just her physical command of the role — it’s the depth she brought to Rajan’s emotional journey. In a world of revenge, honor, and betrayal, Akanksha’s eyes told a thousand stories. Whether it was a silent tear in a moonlit tent or a fiery war cry on the battlefield, she lived Rajan with every breath.It’s rare for a newcomer to exhibit the kind of emotional intelligence Akanksha displayed. Her ability to convey rage, grief, love, and duty — sometimes in a single frame — is being hailed as a game-changer for how debutantes are perceived in Bollywood. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[  Madhuri Dixit and Guneet Monga Share Insights in ‘The Journey of Women in Cinema’Jaipur, Rajasthan – March 8, 2025: The International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) marked a significant milestone in its Silver Jubilee celebrations with a special International Women’s Day event titled “The Journey of Women in Cinema.” Held at the Hyatt Regency Jaipur Mansarovar, this thought-provoking discussion featured Bollywood icon Madhuri Dixit and Academy Award-winning producer Guneet Monga, moderated by IIFA’s Vice President, Noreen Khan.The engaging conversation explored the evolving landscape of women in cinema, highlighting the challenges and triumphs that have shaped their journeys. As IIFA celebrated 25 years of cinematic excellence and global cultural unity, the event reinforced its commitment to fostering meaningful dialogues and championing women in film.A Dialogue Between TrailblazersMadhuri Dixit, one of Bollywood’s most celebrated actresses, reflected on her illustrious 39-year career, detailing how the portrayal of women in Indian cinema has undergone a remarkable transformation. Known for her grace, versatility, and strong screen presence, Madhuri emphasized how female-led narratives have gained prominence, giving actresses more dynamic and powerful roles.“When I started my journey, the industry was vastly different. Women were often limited to specific roles, but today, we are seeing powerful female-driven stories that resonate globally. The shift has been gradual but profound,” said Madhuri, recalling her experiences working in an industry that has constantly evolved.On the other hand, Guneet Monga, an Oscar-winning producer recognized for her bold storytelling and international impact, provided insight into the behind-the-scenes struggles and triumphs of women filmmakers. She spoke about her journey as an independent producer and the challenges she faced in establishing herself in a male-dominated industry.“There was a time when funding female-led projects was a struggle. But persistence, collaboration, and the sheer determination to tell important stories have led to change. Winning an Academy Award was not just a personal achievement but a moment of validation for women in Indian cinema,” said Guneet, referring to her historic Oscar win for Best Documentary Short Subject.Women Shaping the Future of CinemaAs the conversation unfolded, the two distinguished speakers explored how Indian women are making an indelible mark not only in Bollywood but also in international cinema. From actors to producers, directors to screenwriters, the growing presence of women in key decision-making roles has been instrumental in reshaping the industry.Madhuri and Guneet shared stories of resilience, offering encouragement to aspiring filmmakers and artists. “The most important lesson I’ve learned is that women must believe in their own voice,” Madhuri added, stressing the importance of self-confidence and persistence.IIFA’s Commitment to Empowering WomenNoreen Khan, Vice President of IIFA, expressed her pride in curating this event, reaffirming IIFA’s role as a platform that amplifies the voices of women in entertainment.“As IIFA celebrates 25 years of cinematic excellence and global impact, we reaffirm our commitment to championing women in film and beyond. ‘The Journey of Women in Cinema’ is more than just a conversation; it’s a movement. By sharing stories of resilience, creativity, and leadership, we celebrate the trailblazers who have redefined the industry and inspire the next generation to break barriers and embrace their power. Through content, events, and collaborations, IIFA continues to be a platform where voices are heard, change is embraced, and the belief that ‘I Can Make a Difference’ transforms into collective action,” said Noreen Khan.The session concluded with an interactive segment where attendees had the opportunity to ask questions and gain deeper insights into the speakers&#039; experiences. The discussion left an indelible mark on the audience, highlighting the power of storytelling and the impact of women-led narratives.A Celebration of Strength and ProgressMarking an iconic moment in IIFA’s history, the event was a testament to the strength, resilience, and evolution of women in cinema. The conversation between Madhuri Dixit and Guneet Monga not only celebrated their achievements but also served as an inspiration for the next generation of women in the entertainment industry.“The Journey of Women in Cinema” was not just a celebration of past achievements but a vision for the future—one where women continue to break boundaries and redefine cinema. With its legacy of promoting Indian cinema globally, IIFA remains at the forefront of fostering meaningful conversations and empowering women in entertainment.As the lights dimmed on this impactful session, one thing was clear—women in cinema are not just changing the narrative; they are leading it. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[  The India vs. Pakistan rivalry once again takes center stage in Dubai on Sunday (February 23) as the arch-rivals face off in a crucial Group encounter of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Actress Indraxi Kanjilal, who is currently seen as Prathana in the popular show Pushpa Impossible, shares her excitement for the big match. She says, &quot;I remember that while growing up, I always saw my father getting tense whenever there was a match between India and Pakistan. I don’t know much about cricket, but I can feel the tension. I was shooting on match day, but my focus was on the match. I was obviously rooting for Team India, and I knew India would win.&quot;She also adds, &quot;India might have had a slight edge considering their recent form and a great team. However, Pakistan had the ability to cause an upset. But Virat Kohli’s confident batting helped India demolish Pakistan in a one-sided affair. Apart from leading India to a big win and taking them closer to a spot in the semifinal, Kohli also broke multiple batting records on Sunday. He became the first batsman to score a century against Pakistan in both the Champions Trophy and the ODI World Cup. Undoubtedly, Kohli, who is the greatest ODI batter of all time, would like to maintain his good form in the upcoming matches and help Team India become Champions Trophy winners for a record-extending third time.&quot; ]]></description>
