Nimrat Kaur Talks About Her Latest Web Series “Kull”

Nimrat Kaur is back with a powerful role in Kull: The Legacy of the Raisinghs, a family drama that dives deep into generational wounds and societal facades. The actor, known for her intensity and grace, brings a haunting vulnerability to her character Indrani. In an exclusive chat with LIPIKA VARMA, Nimrat discusses the show’s themes, her artistic journey, and the emotional tribute she recently paid to her father. On the title, “Kull”- Yes, absolutely, kull is an interesting word, right? Kul-dosh, kul-ko-aage-badhane-wala. It symbolizes lineage, burdens, responsibilities. I really liked the title when Ekta chose it. I hoped it would stay. For me, Kull represents generational trauma and the weight we carry forward. On Indrani, her character-I feel incredibly grateful that people have embraced Indrani Rai Singh’s part and they have been able to relate to her circumstances, not necessarily her as a person, which I think was my intention in any case in the first place. Behind the sarees, the pearls, the carefully curated perfection, there’s a broken woman barely holding it together. By the end, she becomes so lost in her own delusions, she can’t even tell what’s real anymore. On doing justice to all the characters–Meryl Streep once said, you don’t become someone else entirely—you bring bits of yourself into every role. And that’s so true. I live on my own, I make my own decisions, I have a certain kind of independence in how I think and move through the world. That probably seeps into the women I play. Every character has a journey, a heartbeat—I always try to tap into that. Working with Ekta Kapoor- Ekta gave me my first web series, “The Test Case,” before OTT platforms even existed. That was a bold move. She gave me a platform when the space was still

Aamir Khan Exclusive Interview With Lipika Varma

I’m a Loyalist of Cinema: Aamir Khan Fresh off the release of Sitaare Zameen Par, Aamir Khan opens up about his enduring love for cinema, why he champions children’s stories, and how he balances personal evolution with creative instincts. In an exclusive interaction, he also speaks candidly about declaring his relationship with Gauri and the stability she brings into his life. In this heartfelt conversation, Aamir reflects on movies, meaning, and moments, with LIPIKA VARMA capturing it all. Excerpts- How do you feel when your film is on the verge of being released? Whenever my film is on the verge of being released, the feeling is like a father of a newborn child, though we cannot compare our feelings to a mother of a newborn child. But when my films are released, I feel the same nervousness and excitement as a father. The more excited you are, the more you contemplate whether your film is good, and then the nervousness grows if people will like it or not. I always get nervous whenever my films are on the release. Why are children’s films made in lesser numbers in Bollywood? Yes, it’s sad that the Hindi film industry is making very few children’s films. According to my thought process, the industry feels there is no market for children’s films. I disagree with this. We have so many children in this country, of course, they watch films! But sadly, many end up watching Western films dubbed in Hindi. We must take responsibility as filmmakers and create more meaningful stories for our children. Will you make more children’s films? I have decided to make children’s films even in the future. Kids are the future pillars of our country. They need to be sensitive, caring, and empathetic. Our films touch them in ways to
