From screen to social media

Bhagyashree, who became a household name with ‘Maine Pyaar Kiya,’ has made selective but impactful appearances over the years, including her role in ‘Thalaivii‘ as Jayalalithaa’s mother. Meanwhile her daughter, Avantika, is paving her own way. After debuting in the web series ‘Mithiya’ in 2022, she made her big-screen debut with ‘Inn Galiyon Mein’ earlier this year on 14 March.
Despite her growing success, Avantika revealed in an interview that her mother once advised her not to enter the film industry as she warned her about the heartbreaks and rejections that comes with it. Speaking with India Today Digital, Avantika said, “She told me not to be a part of this industry. That’s the advice I got from her and everyone at home. Even now, when I come back from an audition that I have been rejected, or you know, when we don’t get the calls, or there’s a delay, or something else. My mother and my brother just look at me, with that ‘I told you so’ expression. There is just a lot of heartbreak involved in our profession."This isn’t just a viral moment; it’s a reminder of how Bollywood’s legacy gracefully passes from one generation to the next, with rhythm, love, and a whole lot of style.
