Sheeba, who debuts on TV with Haasil, to play Kaushalya in Ram-Leela!

Actress Sheeba, who did a couple of films back in the 1990s before disappearing from the scene completely, will soon make her television debut with a Sony TV show called Haasil. Besides that, she is also doing Ram-Leela this festive season.

Sheeba will be playing the role of Kaushalya in Ramleela in Delhi. The actress says that the thought process behind taking up Ramleela was to make the Ramayana easy to understand for the youth.


“The reason I took up Ramleela because they said they wanted to make the Ramayana accessible and understandable to today's youth. People are kind of getting disconnected from our history and mythology, so they said that they will keep this in mind. The youngsters must understand the family values that the Ramayana talks about. That's what really prompted me to do this part,” says Sheeba.

The actor will be part of one of the biggest Ramleelas in Delhi – The Luv Kush Ramleela. “This is the first time I am doing Ramleela. The Luv Kush Ramleela is held at the Red Fort. This is one of the biggest Ramleela of the country and my part is going to be there for few days. I am really excited and looking forward to be performing in front of lakhs of people,” she says.

Whitney Houston estate challenges Oprah Winfrey’s account of 2009 stage fall: ‘She was absolutely not high’

Highlights

  • Whitney Houston’s estate has disputed Oprah Winfrey’s claim that the singer had relapsed when she fell during a 2009 television appearance.
  • Winfrey said at Cannes Lions that Houston was “back on drugs” during the interview.
  • The estate insists the fall happened during a sound check because of poor visibility and an unfamiliar stage setup.
  • Representatives described the suggestion that Houston was under the influence as “inaccurate and unfair”.

Whitney Houston’s estate has pushed back against comments made by Oprah Winfrey about the singer’s 2009 appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show, arguing that a long-discussed stage fall has been wrongly linked to Houston’s past struggles with substance abuse.

The disagreement centres on a recent account shared by Winfrey, who suggested Houston had relapsed at the time of the interview. The estate has firmly rejected that version of events, saying the singer’s fall had nothing to do with drug use.
