After impressing audiences with Ishq Subhan Allah, ZEE TV has launched the second season of the popular show, which has been titled Ishq Subhan Allah – Ek Naya Mohabbatnama. The new season hit the airwaves a couple of weeks ago and has already become quite popular among the audience.

Ishq Subhan Allah – Ek Naya Mohabbatnama is filled with a lot of twists and turns, which have been keeping the audience on the edge of their seats ever since the show went on-air recently. The new season revolves around the lives of Kabir and Zara, played by Adnan Khan and Tunisha Sharma respectively.

Actress Tunisha Sharma has been working extra hard to perfect her part on the show. To make her portrayal of Zara stand out and leave an impression, she has been learning Urdu for the role. When she fails to attend her classes, due to time constraints, her tutor comes on the set to teach her.

Talking about her experience of learning the language, Tunisha Sharma says, “Urdu is a completely new language to me. But when I started speaking it on the show, I was extremely intrigued. Hence, I decided to learn the nuances and the diction. For the same, I have been going for Urdu tuitions and when I cannot, due to time constraints, the teacher comes on the set to teach me. I even listen to audiobooks and watch Urdu language shows to get the pronunciations right. But the best part is that the team on-set also helps me understand the meaning of certain words and phrases, so that I can emote better.”

Ishq Subhan Allah – Ek Naya Mohabbatnama is produced by Create Eye.

Anurag Kashyap calls Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos "the definition of dumb" over 'Sacred Games' remark

Anurag Kashyap is known for being outspoken, and this weekend he made headlines again, this time taking aim at Netflix’s top boss Ted Sarandos. The filmmaker lashed out after Sarandos questioned the streaming platform’s early approach in India, particularly their decision to kick things off with Kashyap’s gritty crime drama Sacred Games in 2018.

During an interview on Nikhil Kamath’s podcast People by WTF, Sarandos said he may have chosen a more “populist” route if he could go back, admitting the series was perhaps too novel for the Indian market at the time. The comments didn’t sit well with Kashyap, who fired back on social media, calling Sarandos “the definition of dumb” and sarcastically suggesting the platform should’ve launched with traditional “saas-bahu” content instead.

‘Maybe Happy Ending’ wins six Tony Awards as Korean musical makes Broadway history

South Korea just scored a historic milestone at the Tony Awards, with the musical Maybe Happy Ending bagging six trophies, including Best Musical and Best Lead Actor. The show, centred on two ageing helper robots living on the edge of Seoul, left the awards night buzzing. Korean entertainment, long a force in film, television, and music, is now making serious inroads into Western theatre too.


From Seoul to Broadway: A story born in two languages

Maybe Happy Ending wasn’t always destined for the bright lights of Broadway. It first opened in a small Seoul theatre in 2016, a result of a local arts foundation’s programme. Co-created by South Korean lyricist Hue Park and American composer Will Aronson, the story explores loneliness, connection, and memory through the eyes of obsolete robots. Written in both Korean and English, the piece has been reimagined several times since its debut.

Darren Criss, known to many as a Glee star, played Oliver and took home his first Tony for the role. His co-star Helen J Shen portrayed Claire, the other robot. Together, they brought the emotional weight to a futuristic love story that’s more human than it sounds.


While the robots explore feelings in a near-future Seoul, the show managed to preserve distinct Korean elements like Jeju Island and the traditional plant pot hwabun on the Broadway stage, something fans celebrated online.


A cultural shift, decades in the making

With this win, South Korea joins the rare club of nations with major victories across all four major American entertainment awards, including the Oscars, Emmys, Grammys, and now Tonys. From Parasite to Squid Game, and now Maybe Happy Ending, Korean creators are no longer breaking into the global scene, they’re leading it.

The success also validates years of quiet work in South Korea’s theatre scene. Original musicals like Marie Curie and The Great Gatsby have made appearances in the West End and on Broadway, but Maybe Happy Ending marks the first time a Korean musical has truly swept the Tonys.


As one critic noted, more than awards, it’s about shifting global perspectives. Korean musicals are no longer export hopefuls. They’re now centre stage.
