When will Disha Vakani return to Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah? is the most-asked question among Indian television audiences. While the actress has been absent from the show for years now, fans are still hopeful about her highly anticipated return. Unfortunately, for all such fans, there’s heartbreaking news: producer Asit Kumarr Modi himself has given up trying to bring Disha back to the show. Keep reading for a detailed report!

Those who have enjoyed TMKOC from its beginning know that Disha was an important part of the show. In fact, she was one of the main reasons why the show enjoyed popularity among a wider audience, especially females. Everyone loved the way she played the innocent yet funny character of Daya.

For those who aren’t aware, Disha Vakani went on maternity leave in September 2017, and since then, she hasn’t returned to Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. So, it’s been a long seven years since she’s been missing from the show, but the makers haven’t replaced her yet. But now, after convincing the actress for so long, Asit Kumarr Modi has lost all hope.

Talking to News18 Showsha, the Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah producer said, “It is very important to bring back Dayaben because I also miss her. Sometimes circumstances change in such a way that certain things happen, and it gets delayed. Sometimes, the story gets prolonged. Sometimes, some big events come. There were elections in 2024, there was IPL and then the World Cup matches, the rainy season. It gets delayed because of some reasons.”

He added, “I am still trying. I believe Disha Vakani can’t be back. She has two children. She is like my sister. Even today, we have a very close relationship with her family. My sister, Disha Vakani, has tied a Rakhi to me. Her father and brother are also a family to me. You worked together for 17 years, and it became your extended family.”

While Modi has given up trying, he hopes that god will do some miracle and Disha Vakani will return to Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. He said, “It is difficult for her now (to return to the show). For women, life changes after marriage. Working with small children and managing the house is really a bit difficult for them. But I am still positive. I feel somewhere that god will do some miracle, and she will return. If she comes, then it will be a good thing. If, for some reason, she does not come, then I will have to bring another Dayaben for the show.”

Asit Kumarr Modi further shared that currently, auditions are going on for the role of Dayaben, and whenever the actress is locked, they’ll plan a grand welcome.

Did Pedro Pascal & Gabriel Luna Completely Rewrite A Key Scene In The Last of Us? https://www.koimoi.com/hollywood-news/did-pedro-pascal-gabriel-luna-completely-rewrite-a-key-scene-in-the-last-of-us/ https://www.koimoi.com/hollywood-news/did-pedro-pascal-gabriel-luna-completely-rewrite-a-key-scene-in-the-last-of-us/#respond Thu, 02 Jan 2025 09:43:19 +0000 https://www.koimoi.com/?p=1130160 In The Last of Us episode 6, Pedro Pascal’s Joel finally reunites with his brother Tommy (Gabriel Luna). Did they rewrite this scene?

This scene reflects Pedro Pascal’s emotional rollercoaster journey to find him in Wyoming. While the reunion is heartwarming, the tension between the two brothers is palpable. They’ve got history—painful, complicated history—making for a scene that’s not just about joy but a reckoning.

Here’s the twist: the iconic confrontation in the commune’s bar was almost completely different. “In that session, Pedro and I completely rewrote the scene,” Luna told Entertainment Weekly. And we’re not talking big rewrites here. Nope. “We didn’t change a single letter. We just restructured the way that this scene unfolds.” This wasn’t just a casual change; it was a whole new flow to the beats of the scene.

Craig Mazin, the The Last of Us writer and mastermind, saw the magic in the change. “He was like, ‘This is better,’” Luna said, explaining that the shift made the emotional beats land harder, deeper. Instead of just a simple confrontation, we got a layered, complex moment where Tommy builds up the courage to stand up to Joel and share something huge—he will be a father. For Tommy, it’s a moment of immense joy. For Joel? It’s potentially a dagger to the heart.

This wasn’t just a one-off rehearsal either. “That was pretty much the only scene on the slate that day,” Luna added. “It was just Pedro and I being brothers and doing what brothers do: laughing, joking, needling each other, and eventually fighting.” The authenticity and rawness of their bond added layers to the moment fans saw on screen, making it much more powerful.

In that brief space, Luna and Pascal turned what could’ve been a standard reunion into a scene filled with emotional depth. They gave the scene a heartbeat by tweaking the pacing and restructuring the delivery. And the result? One of the most memorable moments in the series so far. It wasn’t just about a brotherly confrontation but the weight of the past and the future colliding.

It’s clear that these rewrites, while subtle, did wonders. And let’s not forget, the episode also hinted at future character arcs, like the introduction of Dina, Ellie’s future love interest in The Last of Us Part II. But for now, Tommy and Joel’s fraught reunion left a lasting mark.

So, while The Last of Us continues to drop gut-wrenching emotional moments, the real magic might lie in those small, behind-the-scenes changes. As Luna put it, sometimes it’s just about doing what brothers do: “laughing, joking, needling each other, and eventually fighting.”

Bigg Boss 18: Eisha Singh & Chahat Pandey’s Mothers Get Into A Heated Argument! (Photo Credit – Instagram)

With the ongoing family week, Bigg Boss 18 makers have dropped in lots of masala for the viewers. Chahat Pandey’s mother was recently seen bashing Avinash Mishra. In a new promo, she is now mocking Eisha Singh for her romance rumors with Shalin Bhanot. And, of course, that did not go very well with her mother, who clapped back with some harsh words. Scroll below for all the details!

It all began when Salman Khan, during the Weekend ka Vaar episode, hinted about Eisha’s closeness with Shalin. He also revealed that the Bekaboo actress made her last call to the Bigg Boss 16 contestant before she entered the house. Soon after, several videos of the duo went viral on Instagram, fuelling romance rumors.

In one of the videos, Eisha Singh was seen performing pooja for a new car bought by Shalin Bhanot. He was present for his special moment alongside all his family members. Chahat Pandey’s mother brought up the video as she said, “Shalin ji ke sath wo gaadi ki pooja kar rahi hai, hazaaro reels wo Eisha ki viral ho gayi hai. Log bata rahe hai ki aarti bahu raani kar rahi hai car ki.”

Chahat Pandey could be seen laughing as her mother makes the big revelation inside the Bigg Boss 18 house. Eisha Singh’s mother did not take it well and clapped back, “Dimag ke paidal log hote hai na jo, apne ko badhane ke chakkar me dusro ko ganda show karte hai. Jab aapke paas beti ho na toh kisi aur ki beti pe kabhi mat boliye. Kab apne pe jo chiz palat jaye, aap waqt nahi jaante na.”

Chahat and her mother were left speechless. But this was only a short clip of the argument.

Take a look at the viral promo below:

Netizens shared their opinions and picked their side in the comments section

A user wrote, “#chahat ki mummy galat hai par #eisha ne kisi ko chhora ni”

Another commented, “Chahat’s mother seems quite downgrading lady who tries to put everyone down and tries to disrespect everyone… Such a cheap lady”

“#ChahatPandey ki ma dusro ko badnaam karne aayi hain,” another wrote.

A comment read, “Eisha mother and Chahat mother is playing better then their kids.”

“#EishaSingh’s mother is on fire……#ChahatPandey’s mother deserves it….she don’t know how to give basic respect,” another commented.

Meanwhile, the Bigg Boss 18 episode also witnessed Vivian Dsena meet his wife, Nouran Aly. Avinash Mishra and Rajat Dalal‘s mother also arrived in the house, among other family members.

The upcoming new year will bring forward a variety of new storylines and the culmination of old ones on The Young and the Restless. The Sharon storyline features several faces of the show including Jordan, Ian, and even Phyllis in the mix. With Nick being fully supportive of Sharon, the Newman family might start getting embroiled in the Heather murder mystery as well.

On the other hand, The Winters family has a brand new addition. Nate was revealed to have a half-brother and actor Nathan Owens was cast in the role. Now, the storyline is expected to go ahead with full force. Here’s what fans can expect from these two storylines of The Young and the Restless.

The Young & The Restless: The Sharon Storyline

During a conversation with TV Insider, Josh Griffith, the executive producer and head writer of the show revealed that this story “is going to explode over the next month or two in a major way.” He teased a lot of surprising reveals regarding what happened during the murder mystery in the last six months. “It will shake up Mariah in a huge way and affect her relationship with Tessa,” he hinted and added what it might mean for the others.

“It will bring Sharon and Nick closer than ever,” Josh disclosed and said that Nick is the one determined to find out what happened and is leading the charge. “It’s going to be very exciting and very suspenseful,” he then added. The writer also revealed that “Sharon and Phyllis will be thrown into a life-or-death situation” which will make them reevaluate their enmity.

Josh hinted at “a wild ride and a massive showdown” between Jordan plus Ian and the powerful Newman family. Nikki and Jordan versus Victor and Ian to be exact. Viewers can expect Victoria Newman to also be “heavily involved in the next arc of this Ian fallout” just like the rest of her family.

The Young & The Restless: The Winters Family

Meanwhile, when it comes to the Winters Family, Josh praised the newest hire of the show, Nathan Owens and called him fantastic. He said that the half-brother storyline “will have a major impact” on both Nate and Devon but especially on Lily. For the unversed, fans have been wondering if the new hire would play Lily’s new love interest. The Y&R producer further teased, “Maybe Audra has some more skeletons in the closet.”

Audra is currently dating Nate which is why she overlaps into the storyline of the Winters. With the Newman family and the Winters family both really busy with these intensive storylines, fans can expect some good episodes in the new year. Be it rivals working together, families protecting their own, secrets that might shake foundations, and drama to entertain the audience.

Fans of The Young and the Restless can expect a lot of things from the new year including explosive drama, showdowns, confrontations, reigniting rivalries, and romance. The year is ending with buzz of the classic rivalry between Victor Newman and Jack Abbott reigniting and a potential triangle between Sally, Billy, and Phyllis. Which of these arcs are you excited for?

Meanwhile, the writers are experimenting with a lot of new dynamics as well as bringing back a few old ones. Phyllis is involved in more than one storyline and they feature her enmity with both Sharon and Sally. Here’s what we know of what to expect from Victor, Jack, Sally, Billy and Phyllis.

The Young & The Restless: Victor Vs Jack Again?

During an interview with TV Insider, Josh Grifftih, the head writer and the executive producer of The Young and the Restless, opened up about what the new year will bring. “It will be even better than 2024,” he said and added, “It will be a whirlpool of romance, suspense, and family conflict.”

On the famous soap rivalry between Victor and Jack, he said that recently since a while, both of the characters reached a truce but the temporary peace is about to end. Josh stated that Nikki’s alcoholism story and Jack’s involvement in it helped him reignite the feud “in a very organic” as well as “dramatic way.” He shed light on what the two characters will be up to.

“Just as one thinks they bested the other, the other one comes up with another strategy. So, the war is going to escalate,” the writer teased. He explained that Victor is going after Jack’s company Jabot because that is where it hurts him most. “In a big Romeo and Juliet type story that we’re going to tell, Claire and Kyle will be caught right in the middle,” he added. For the unversed, Claire is Victor’s granddaughter and Kyle is Jack’s son.

The Young & The Restless: Sally, Billy, Phyllis Triangle

Meanwhile, Sally and Billy have been enjoying a romance after being cheated on by their respective partners Adam and Chelsea. Phyllis being around Billy will lead to a potential triangle between them. Josh said, “I’m really intrigued by this. They’re coming together off this mutual sense of betrayal by Adam and by Chelsea and it puts them in a very interesting and romantic situation.” He further stated what the storyline will then lead to.

The producer mentioned that Sally is a “very good influence for Billy” and introducing Phyllis into the mix will complicate things. In this way, “Phyllis becomes the sort of darker angel on one shoulder of Billy’s while Sally is the lighter one on the other,” Josh concluded about the triangle storyline.

The Young and the Restless has featured a lot of complex storylines in the year 2024. Be it Connor Newman’s OCD issues or Ashley Abbott struggling from dissociative personality disorder. Sharon has also been dealing with mental health issues and was framed for Heather’s murder by two villains.

On the other hand, Daniel has been grieving over the loss of Heather who he was dating. And there has also been a love triangle in the works with Kyle, Summer, and Claire. What can fans expect from these storylines in the coming new year? Here’s everything we know about the same.

The Young & The Restless: The Kyle-Summer-Claire Triangle

During a chat with TV Insider, Josh Griffith, the head writer as well as the executive producer of The Young and the Restless dished about all these storylines and what the audience will get to witness in 2025. He started off, “Claire and Kyle are going to have to fight the fact that Victor doesn’t want them together and Jack is worried that they shouldn’t be together because of what Victor might pull.” Summer Newman is also involved in this mess.

Considering she is the daughter of Phyllis, it is no surprise when she acts out like her mother. Josh stated that Summer will “feel a pull back to Kyle” who is her former husband. She will “sense an opening” to make things difficult between Kyle and Claire. The duo already have Victor and Jack to worry about and with Summer wanting Kyle back, things will get messy.

“We’re going to see Summer sort of return to her Phyllis attitude,” Josh teased about the same. For the unversed, Summer and Kyle got divorced a while back and have since been dating Chance and Claire respectively. Summer recently broke up with Chance while Kyle is still busy romancing Claire. Now that she wants him back, how far will Summer truly go?

The Young & The Restless: Daniel Romalotti

Meanwhile, Daniel has been grieving and will try to “find a way to get full closure” when it comes to the death of Heather. Josh also hinted that he might “find a way to totally forgive Sharon” who actually isn’t even at fault. Lastly, Daniel will “set himself off on a new path” courtesy “a walk on the emotional wild side.” What else does fate have in store for him in 2025?

Josh also spoke about The Young and the Restless surpassing 13,000 episodes and the Newman ranch being rebuilt for the occasion. He said, “Bringing back the Newman ranch has been a long time in the works” and he is thrilled that the production team was able to pull it off for Victor and Nikki as well as their actors, Eric Braeden and Melody Thomas Scott.

Leonardo DiCaprio is one of the world’s most famous and the most celebrated actors. His list of iconic movies is pretty long including Titanic, Inception, The Wolf of Wall Street, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, and more. While the actor has always remained at the forefront of cinematic excellence, he has always revolved around Hollywood. However, a new rumor takes him to the land of Korea in the Squid Game, one of the biggest series in the world at the moment.

Speculation about a possible cameo in the drama’s third season has fans buzzing with excitement and curiosity. These rumors come at a time when Squid Game continues to dominate pop culture. Adding a star of DiCaprio’s stature to the mix would undoubtedly elevate the series’ appeal even further. But how much truth is there to these whispers, and what has the production team said about it?

The production team shuts down the rumors of Leonardo Dicaprio’s cameo

On the New Year, Korean outlet OSEN issued a report stating that Leonardo DiCaprio will be part of the final season of Squid Game. The report further noted that his part had been shot secretly last year. Since then, fans have been pleased about the news and have wondered what role the Inception star will play in Squid Game. This theory sounded all the more believable because DiCaprio had already expressed his admiration for Squid Game.

Find out why these sitcoms were a game-changer in the streaming wars.

Once upon a streaming war, HBO Max flexed its financial muscles like never before. Back in 2019, WarnerMedia’s shiny new platform was all set to dish out $1.5B to secure The Big Bang Theory and Two and a Half Men.

Why so pricey, you ask? These CBS heavyweights had never graced any streaming platform in full before. This was brand-new territory unlike Friends and The Office, which had already made their rounds on Netflix. And brand-new meant big bucks. HBO Max aimed to make these two household favorites exclusive, drawing sitcom fans by the millions.

Deadline reported that The Big Bang Theory alone was expected to fetch $1 billion. Throw in Two and a Half Men, and the deal’s value boosted to $1.5B. For context, HBO Max had shelled out $425M for Friends, and NBCUniversal had snagged The Office for over $500M. But TBBT? It’s a whole different league.

The Big Bang Theory ended its 12-season run as the top half-hour show for the 18-49 demo, leaving a legacy of geeky humor. Two and a Half Men had long become a 2000s sitcom giant.

Both shows were sitcom royalty with their quirky characters, laugh-out-loud moments, and syndication success. It’s no wonder HBO Max was willing to cough up this fortune.

By the time HBO Max’s streaming spree began, Friends and The Office had already proven that nostalgia sells. Netflix’s streaming of these classics had driven insane viewership numbers, making them must-have properties. But here’s the kicker: while Friends and The Office had been streaming for years, The Big Bang Theory and Two and a Half Men were fresh faces in the online world. That exclusivity added a premium tag.

As HBO Max bagged these shows, Sony Pictures Television was busy shopping Seinfeld around. Hulu’s deal was set to expire, and Netflix stepped in, snagging Jerry and the gang for over $500 million. It was a sitcom arms race, with legacy shows becoming billion-dollar chess pieces in the streaming game.

When The Big Bang Theory joined HBO Max, it marked a milestone for WarnerMedia. Chairman Robert Greenblatt called it “a comedy juggernaut,” a show that captured the “mainstream zeitgeist” like few others. Its addition, alongside Friends and Two and a Half Men, created a sitcom trifecta that solidified HBO Max’s launch strategy in spring of 2020.

While these deals made headlines for their absurd price tags, they also served as a reminder that sometimes, owning a box set isn’t such a bad idea.

Did Matt LeBlanc Pass On Role Of Phil Dunphy In Modern Family? https://www.koimoi.com/television/did-matt-leblanc-pass-on-role-of-phil-dunphy-in-modern-family/ https://www.koimoi.com/television/did-matt-leblanc-pass-on-role-of-phil-dunphy-in-modern-family/#respond Wed, 01 Jan 2025 09:00:32 +0000 https://www.koimoi.com/?p=1129802 Matt LeBlanc was almost Phil Dunphy. The Friends legend was offered the Modern Family goofy dad role, but he passed. Read on for more.

Well, yes. He rejected the role but he just did so because he didn’t want to “do the project an injustice.” Bold move, right? Back in 2009, Matt LeBlanc was chillin’ after the epic flame-out of his Joey spinoff. The Modern Family pilot script lands on his desk, and instead of jumping on the role, he has a moment of clarity.

“I remember reading it thinking, this is a really good script, (but) I’m not the guy for this,” LeBlanc told USA Today. “I’d be doing the project an injustice to take this. I know what I can do, I know what I can’t do. Plus, I’m having too much fun laying on the couch.”

Yup, couch time over sitcom stardom. Matt knew what he was about. He wanted to be sure the role was the right fit. And honestly? He was right. The role of Phil Dunphy was legit tailor-made for Ty Burrell.

In fact, Modern Family creators had their eyes set on Burrell from the get-go. But when ABC’s higher-ups had doubts, LeBlanc was approached as a potential backup. LeBlanc, being the good sport he is, passed. And the rest is Modern Family history.

Burrell nailed Phil, making the character one of TV’s most lovable goofballs—and racking up a bunch of Emmy nods along the way. LeBlanc, though, wasn’t crying over lost opportunities. He later returned to TV with Episodes in 2011, playing a version of himself.

Oh, and remember that advice LeBlanc gave to Jesse Tyler Ferguson when the Modern Family cast was dealing with salary negotiations in 2012? Golden. LeBlanc told him, “You have to walk out, or they won’t take you seriously. If you stick together, you have power.” Solid words. But here’s the kicker: when the cast went on strike, LeBlanc texted Ferguson saying, “I said, ‘Hey, I killed it as Mitch today at the table read, thanks for the opportunity!’”

Classic LeBlanc move—pulling pranks while dispensing advice.

Looking back, we’ll never know how Modern Family would have played out with LeBlanc as Phil. But let’s be real, Ty Burrell brought something special to the table that we can’t imagine anyone else pulling off. And LeBlanc? He ended up thriving in his own lane, proving he wasn’t just Joey Tribbiani. He was a dude who knew exactly what role was his—and Episodes was that role.

So yeah, Modern Family might have looked a little different, but in the end, both LeBlanc and Burrell found their sitcom sweet spots. Everyone wins.

So, here’s the twist you didn’t see coming: in The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 2, Episode 7, “Doomed to Die,” Elrond (Robert Aramayo) kisses Galadriel (Morfydd Clark). Forget all those steamy Sauron-Galadriel moments fans were hoping for. Instead, we got an emotional kiss that was part strategy, part goodbye, and 100% unexpected. Whoa.

Aramayo summed it up best when he confessed, “I think that’s how it begins, but then also it’s a goodbye as well.” The kiss, while it may seem like a quick rescue tactic (it’s to pass her a cloak pin for a lockpick, in case you’re wondering), packs a punch way beyond the practical. For Elrond, this kiss was more than a strategic move. It was loaded with emotions—he genuinely thought this could be his last moment with Galadriel, and he was saying goodbye to someone who was like family to him. The drama! The feels!

This wasn’t just some random act of heroism. “It’s the last thing you would expect him to do in that room,” Aramayo pointed out, and honestly, he was right. We didn’t expect Elrond to go full-on kiss mode, but here we are. Distracting Adar and his Orcs? Genius move. But also, it was a real gut-punch to Elrond, knowing he might never see his friend again.

What makes this moment even more juicier is that Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings canon never hints at any romantic link between the two. Elrond ends up marrying Galadriel’s daughter, Celebrían, not Galadriel herself. So, this kiss? Definitely sparked a firestorm of debate. Is it friendship? Is it more? Rings of Power threw that question right into the middle of the ring. Some fans thought it was just an affectionate gesture, others—well, they’re still not sure what to make of it.

But Aramayo had a solid take on it: “She’s like his family member.” This wasn’t some random lip lock. Elrond, overwhelmed by the possibility of losing his friend forever, had to pull out all the stops. His promise to fight Sauron wasn’t just about saving the world; it was about saving his people—and, in a way, honoring the family bond he shared with Galadriel. As surprising as it was, the kiss felt right on a deep, emotional level.

Sure, there’s plenty of Rings of Power drama, but this moment took stuff to a new level. It wasn’t just about who kissed who but about the deep, messy connections between characters we’ve grown to love. And fans? They’re still talking about it.

Squid Game 2 was one of the most anticipated shows of 2024, and it reflected through the number of views it garnered during its premiere week. It has beaten the record of Jenna Ortega starrer Wednesday, which came out in 2022. The first season of this popular Korean drama is at #1 on Netflix’s top 10 most popular non-English shows. Scroll below for the deets.

The first season, released in 2021, took the world by storm. It is a dystopian survival thriller led by Lee Jae. It won multiple accolades, including six Primetime Emmy Awards. The 2021 series became Netflix’s most-watched non-English series with 265.2 million views.

According to Variety’s report, Squid Game 2 witnessed immediate and massive success in its first four days of availability, more than any Netflix series has achieved in its premiere week. The previous record was held on Wednesday, starring Jenna Ortega. It had set the record with 50.1 million views in 2022, which has now been beaten by the Korean series.

Squid Game 2 has debuted with 68 million views in the first four days of availability. In addition, it is also at #7 on Netflix’s list of the most popular non-English TV series of all time. It is measured by calculating the viewership in the first 91 days of a show’s premiere. As mentioned above, the first season is at the top spot with 265.2 million views. However, season 2 still has a long time to beat the viewership of its predecessor to gain the #1 spot.

It also became Netflix’s most-watched show for the week of December 23-29. The first season also made a comeback on the list as the #3 non-English series of the week, with a staggering 8.1 million views.

Meanwhile, fans are equally hyped about Squid Game 3, which is scheduled to be released in 2025. Rumors claim that Hollywood star Leonardo DiCaprio has been roped in for the third season. In this second season, we saw more of Gong Yoo as a salesman who recruits participants for the game.

Squid Game 2 stars an ensemble cast comprising Lee Jung-jae, Lee Byung-hun, Wi Ha-joon, Im Si-wan, Kang Ha-neul, Lee Jin-wook, Park Sung-hoon, Yang Dong-geun, Jo Yu-ri, Kang Ae-shim, Lee Seo-hwan, and Park Gyu-young. It is streaming on Netflix.

Note: The viewership numbers are the official numbers given by Netflix for the number of weeks these films have claimed a spot in the global top 10 charts, irrespective of the number of days or weeks they have been streaming on Netflix!

Rupali Ganguly tied the knot with her husband, Ashwin Verma, on February 6, 2013, in an intimate ceremony. Ever since then, they have been serving some major couple goals for the world to see. However, did you know that the inception of their love story was also super cute? Ashwin fell in love with his wife when she was dressed as a 60-year-old woman. Yes, you hear that right! The actress had, in a throwback interview, remembered the incident fondly.

In a throwback interview with Mashable, Rupali Ganguly revealed that she was selected for an ad film that Ashwin Verma was working on. The actress had interestingly left acting and had joined a catering college. However, as destiny would have it, she went for the shoot, and Ashwin spotted her in the costume of a 60-year-old woman. The Anupamaa actress said, “I had left work at that time. I had joined a catering college. I was so disillusioned with the film industry and then I joined catering college when I was very young. And then I was dressed up as a 60-year-old, as a wife. Suddenly, when I came out as a 60-year-old with white hair and everything, the first line he (Ashwin) said was, ‘I wouldn’t mind getting old with someone like you.”

The Anupamaa actress revealed that she thought that Ashwin Verma was just casually flirting with her, but little did she know that they were heading towards a whirlwind romance. They started talking through the ISD calls and grew closer. Their friendship soon blossomed into a long-distance relationship. Instead of a proposal or an elaborate wedding ceremony, they went for a registered marriage when the time was right. Rupali Ganguly added, “We decided on the date, and I told Ashwin to talk to my father. He spoke to my father, and they were convinced. We then spoke to Ashwin’s parents. It was nothing grand or pompous; we did the registered marriage.”

Rupali Ganguly and Ashwin Verma’s love story is nothing less than a fairytale. However, they have been surrounded by some controversies after Verma’s daughter from his first marriage accused Rupali of allegedly starting a relationship with her father when he was already married to his first wife. Rupali and Ashwin are parents to a son, Rudransh.

Yellowstone made a huge splash during Season 5, and not just for the usual cattle drama or intense political moves. Episode 7 delivered something unexpected—a tender, quick lesbian kiss that caught viewers off guard. In a show known for its “toughest, straightest” image, this moment stood out like a cowboy hat at a ballet.

To set the scene: The Dutton family, including patriarch John Dutton (Kevin Costner), took a much-needed break at the local fair. John, newly crowned as Montana’s governor, was supposed to be managing politics, but instead, he joined the festivities with his love interest, Summer (Piper Perabo). The episode took an unexpected turn as the two shared some banter about public optics and kisses. Enter Clara (Lilli Kay), a new character who stole the spotlight in the most unassuming way—by sharing a kiss with a woman under the stars.

This moment wasn’t flashy, steamy, or pivotal to the plot. In fact, it was so casual that it almost felt like a throwaway scene. Clara and her fairground companion locked lips, and just like that, it was over—no drama, no fanfare, just two women enjoying a simple kiss on a peaceful Montana night. And honestly? That was the beauty of it. The kiss wasn’t a spectacle or a plot device. It was just part of the scene—people living free of judgment in a world with far more pressing matters.

Ever since the news of The Real Housewives of London first came out, fans have been excited to see how the franchise would translate when it comes to the city. There have already been two United Kingdom based editions, namely Cheshire and Jersey of which the former is still running and has been successful while the latter only had a total of 2 seasons.

The upcoming London edition will be the first original Housewives show by Hayu. It was announced earlier this year at the Hayu FanFest. Here’s what we know about the in-production UK edition of The Real Housewives and will it be anything like the reality series Ladies of London by Bravo?

The Real Housewives Of London: What We Know

Announcement at Hayu FanFest

Hayu announced The Real Housewives of London by revealing a working poster with the words “Stepping out in 2025.” The said post was captioned, “Nobody serves a good cup of tea like the British—and London’s finest are ready to spill it.” Hendrick McDermott, the managing director of Hayu stated that RHOLondon would be its first ever commission of an original series.

Potential release time frame

He added that the aim is to further amplify Hayu’s offering with original content that serves fans and that they look forward “to being the exclusive home of this latest installment” of The Real Housewives franchise. While the release date hasn’t been confirmed, it is expected to premiere in 2025. The poster has already confirmed that the series will air next year.

Casting details unknown

While the cast of the British edition hasn’t been announced yet, fans are busy making guesses about the same and wondering if the vibe of the show would be anything like Bravo’s reality show Ladies of London.

Fan reactions to the announcement

Meanwhile, fans were quick to react to the news of the announcement on social media platforms. One user wrote, “Be still my British heart!” while another said, “Truly the best news in years.” A third mused, “I wonder if anyone from Ladies of London will be casted?” A few dramatic reactions said, “Seated and ready,” as well as “Screaming, crying, throwing up.”

One netizen commented, “I’ve been manifesting this for YEARS and I’m so excited it’s finally happening!” and hoped that Hayu would do the franchise justice because “London deserves to have its own tone, style and identity!” Another responded, “London, the home of the rich and Uber wealthy, can’t wait for this!” while a third felt, “Hope to see some Ladies of London alum!”

One fan said, “About time the UK got the proper Housewives treatment here for it!!” while another chimed in, “Soo exciting!! They better be holding tea cups in the intro,” referring to the intro videos of the Real Housewives franchise where each edition has a unique logo representing the location.

The 47th season of Survivor may have just ended but the 48th season is already set and ready to air soon. The Jeff Probst competitive show has been a fan-favorite for decades. Ever since its premiere in the 2000s, the CBS series has managed to hook the audience with its twists and turns.

Rachel LaMont won the 47th season, beating Sam Phalen and Sue Smay with a whopping 7-1-0 vote. Wondering when the next season will premiere or where the edition was filmed or when its potential finale could be? Here’s everything we know about the popular show’s upcoming 48th season.

Survivor Season 48 Premiere & Finale Date

The forty-eighth season of Survivor will premiere on CBS on February 26, 2025, with a two-hour long episode. It was announced on November 13 this year during the network’s lineup. While there is no such confirmation about when the final episode of the yet-to-be aired season may be, each season of Survivor in the new game era has featured a total of 13 episodes.

By that logic, the finale of season 48 would air in May. To be specific, May 21, 2025. As per the schedule, once it premieres, a new episode will air on Wednesday at 8 pm ET on CBS. After the broadcast is over, the episode will then be available to stream on Paramount+ the very next day.

Survivor Season 48 Episodes Length

The upcoming season of Survivor is expected to continue to air 90-minute long episodes. For the unversed, this change happened since season 45. The longer length episodes were given a big thumbs up by the audience, thus forcing the network to make the change permanent over the seasons.

Survivor Season 48 Filming Details

As for filming, the 48th season was shot in the Mamanuca Islands in Fiji. That has been the location for the last few seasons of Survivor. Since the 33rd season which aired back in 2016, the filming location has remained the same. While it hasn’t been confirmed, it is quite safe to assume that the season was filmed in May and June 2024, as per the show’s schedule.

The season will be on air for a total of 26 days which is different from the 39 days duration Survivor used during its first 40 seasons. For more news or any changes in the schedule, stay tuned to TV News on Koimoi. The cast of the upcoming season has not been announced by the network yet.

Survivor: History & Past Seasons

Survivor premiered in May 2000 with 47 aired seasons and an upcoming 48th season, ready to be broadcasted. The long-running series has seen a whopping total of 688 episodes, as of now. With more seasons of the show coming up as frequently as they do, expect the number to increase soon.
