Aadya & Sitara is a YouTube channel hosted by two young girls, Sitara Ghattamaneni and Aadya Paidipally, who are also friends.  The lively channel has content including vlogs about their friendship and videos which have the two of them exploring and trying out fun activities like drawing blindfolded and making an eco friendly Ganesha idol.  The channel already attracted 1,22,000 subscribers and it looks like Aadya & Sitara will not stop any time soon.

The YouTube stars recently hosted a guest on their channel for an interview and it was the beautiful Rashmika Mandanna, the female lead of the recently released Tollywood movie Sarileru Neekevvaru.  The young content creators are back with their second guest interview and this time, it was none other than Tollywood superstar Mahesh Babu, the lead actor of Sarileru Neekevvaru.

This particular interview took on a personal touch with the appearance of Superstar Mahesh Babu, who is also the father of Sitara.  The video started off with the hosts making a greeting card wishing the guest on the success of the movie and asking the viewers to guess who the guest is while dropping hints as to who it is.  The greeting card left Mahesh Babu deeply impressed as he said he is going to frame it and keep it in his study.

As the interview progressed, the girls asked Mahesh Babu questions about the film, ranging from how the actor felt playing the role of an Army officer to how he felt while shooting for the train sequence and if the actor ever journeyed on a train.  Mahesh Babu and the hosts Aadya and Sitara discussed their favourite punch dialogues as well. The interview ended with the hosts quizzing the actor in a rapid fire round and prompting the actor as well to ask the hosts a couple of rapid fire questions.

Star kids are increasingly adopting technology into their lives and are taking to various platforms to showcase their talents.  Alia Bhatt has her own YouTube channel named Alia Bhatt and has over a million subscribers while Suhana Khan is learning acting and direction in New York.  Suhana Khan also recently acted in her classmates short film titled The Grey Part Of Blue.  

The interview already attracted more than 51,000 views since it was released.  With the appearance of Mahesh Babu on the channel Aadya & Sitara, there is no doubt the young vloggers will be able to bring more famous guests to appear on their channel as well as keep creating content to which their audience can look forward.

Teachers are the most important people in everyone’s lives.  They guide us and motivate us to achieve great things in life.  Time and again, Bollywood introduced us to such dedicated teachers, who inspired us, just like our teachers in real life.  Here are four such iconic Bollywood teachers.

Most iconic Bollywood teachers

1) Debraj Sahai in Black (2005)

Portrayed by Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan, Debraj Sahai became the teacher of a blind and deaf girl, Michelle McNally (Rani Mukerji.)  Debraj Sahai taught us learning is not always bound to the classroom. Known for using harsh methods for the long term benefit of his student, Debraj Sahai proved just how important the role of a teacher is in a student’s life.

An art teacher by profession, Ram Shankar Nikumbh (Aamir Khan) made us fall in love with his caring nature.  Ram Shankar Nikumbh understood the condition of his troubled student who suffered from dyslexia and did everything he could to bring out his potential. 

3) Naina Mathur in Hichki (2018)

The 2018 movie Hichki introduced us to the starry eyed teacher Naina Mathur (Rani Mukerji,) who, despite suffering from Tourette syndrome, dreams of being a teacher.  Landing a job at an elite school, she is given the task to teach the underprivileged kids enrolled at the school. Her dedication to bring change in the lives of these kids, makes her one of the iconic teachers of Bollywood.

4) Anand Kumar in Super 30 (2019)

Anand Kumar is modelled after the real life educator and mathematician of the same name.  Super 30 depicts the struggle of a teacher (Hrithik Roshan) who sacrifices everything in order to give the underprivileged children of our society an equal opportunity in education as others.  Anand Kumar inspires us to change our outlook towards life and help others who are less fortunate than us.

Bollywood is known for its ancient ways of casting much older actors and actresses in younger roles.  However, there have been occasions when an actor/actress played a character so convincingly, they made the audience forget their real age with their acting ability.

Here is a list of 5 actors and actresses who played characters nowhere their age and really nailed it. 

1)Anupam Kher in Saaransh (1984)

Known for his versatile acting, actor Anupam Kher made his screen debut with Saaransh at the age of 29, in the role of a retired stubborn old man.  The movie was about an elderly couple coming to terms with the loss of their only son.  As a grieving old man, Anupam Kher was so convincing, it was hard to believe the character was portrayed by a man in his late 20s.  Anupam Kher’s performance in the movie won him his first Filmfare Award for Best Actor.

2)Pankaj Kapoor in Kamla Ki Maut (1989)

Released in the year 1989, Kamla Ki Maut is considered one of the most progressive films of Indian cinema.  It deals with issues of love and relationships in modern India and starred a 35 year old Pankaj Kapoor as a father of two adult daughters.  As a talented actor, Kapoor portrayed the character really well and with raw acting and emotions, managed to breathe life into the role of a father worried about his two daughters.

3)Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in Sarbjit (2016)

The rightful diva of Bollywood, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, at the age of 43, portrayed a 60 year old woman fighting for the release of her brother in Sarbjit.  Aishwarya shone as Dalbir Kaur and with a deglamorized look, she captivated audiences with her superb acting.  She was praised by critics for giving one of the strongest performances of her career in Sarbjit. 

4)Manoj Bajpayee in Aligarh (2016)

Method actor Manoj Bajpayee portrayed the role of professor Ramchandra Siras, a character 15 years older than Bajpayee’s real age.  Based on a true story, Bajpayee’s portrayal of a troubled and fragile professor trying to deal with pain and humiliation with dignity, while fighting for equality, is quite memorable.  

5)Shweta Tripathi in Haraamkhor (2017)

This bubbly and beautiful actress, who played the role of a young student in Haraamkhor, was 32 when the film was shot.  Directed by Shlok Sharma, Haraamkhor starred Shweta Tripathi and Nawazuddin Siddiqui in the lead roles.  Shweta portrayed the role of a confused, ignored young teenager, who keeps making wrong choices.  Her performance was really convincing because of how beautifully she was able to showcase the anguish of a young girl.

It takes a really talented actor to pull off a character nowhere near his/her age.  These actors and actresses, through their characters, really proved the extent of their dedication to their craft.
