Shoaib Ibrahim on plans of working with Dipika Kakar: It all depends on the makers

Shoaib Ibrahim and Dipika Kakar starred together in the serial Sasural Simar Ka and love blossomed between them. In 2018, the two tied the knot and they are regarded as one of the most loved television jodis. Even on social media, their fans love their PDA.


We recently met Shoaib and asked him what he has to say about being called the best television couple. The actor said, “This is people’s love for us that they call us one of the best couples in the television industry. Well, I feel we just love each other and in every couple, there should be an understanding, love, and care. I think every couple can be the best couple. We try to find happiness in small things and that happiness turns into big things.”

When asked if he and Dipika are planning to work together again in a serial, web series or in films, Shoaib said, “We can’t say anything right now about it. It all depends on the makers if they want to cast us together. But yes, if in future there’s something good and we feel that we should work together, then we will definitely do it.”

While talking about his future projects, Shoaib said, “There are things, there are many things in the pipeline, but for now, I can’t commit and can’t speak about it. There are things I am working on and there are things on which we both are working (him and Dipika). I will let you guys know, who else I will tell about it.”

Currently, Dipika is starring in Kahaan Hum Kahaan Tum which is successfully airing on Star Plus. Shoaib was last seen on the small screen in Ishq Mein Marjawan which aired on Colors TV. We are sure Shoaib and Dipika's fans are eagerly waiting to see them on the small screen together again.

Kashyap’s review singles out craft over ideology

Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap has added his voice to the praise for Aditya Dhar’s spy thriller Dhurandhar, saying he admired the film even though he did not agree with all of its political messaging. Writing on Letterboxd, Kashyap said he chose to look past what he felt were a couple of propaganda-heavy moments and instead focus on the quality of the filmmaking.

He noted that hostility towards an enemy state is often built into the genre itself, adding that he had no issue with that aspect. However, he pointed to two specific dialogues that troubled him, saying that setting them aside allowed the film to work strongly on its own terms. He described Dhurandhar as a good, and ultimately brilliant, film largely set in Pakistan.
