Khushalii Kumar, the late music mogul Gulshan Kumar's daughter and T-Series CEO Bhushan Kumar's sister, lived lanes away from the spotlight until her big break in 2022 with Dhokha: Round D Corner.
She appeared in several music videos and continued her acting stint with films like Dedh Bhiga Zameen and Starfish.
Khushalii's family connection didn't help her with her acting career initially.
"My brother is like, 'If you convince mom, I don't have any problem.' For him, everything has to come from mom. When he bought his Ferrari, until the time mom said yes, he did not get it.
So if mummy says no for anything, he is not okay with it," Khushalii says.
Ghudchadi, co-starring Raveena Tandon, Sanjay Dutt, and Parth Samthaan, is your fourth film since your debut in 2022. Why do we see you so infrequently on screen?
I had shot Ghudchadi before Dedh Bigha Zameen, but that came first. It all depends on the timings of the films' release.
I'm looking at a good script. The story should excite me.
I will make sure now that I'm seen more often and that I keep getting good projects.
You have done music videos with Parth Samthaan earlier. Does it get easy when you have established chemistry with co-stars?
If you know them from before, that ice-breaking thing is not there. So yes, that bit makes it easier.
But I had met Pratik (Gandhi) on the first day of readings during Dedh Bigha Zameen. So even during readings, you can develop that bond with your co-actor.
Parth and I had got so much of love for our song, Dhoka. Director Binoy Gandhi had seen that song and he really liked our look and chemistry. That's how he thought of getting us in Ghudchadi.
What was your first interaction with Raveena Tandon and Sanjay Dutt like?

The Best Places to Travel in September
September is the unsung hero of travel months: The busiest vacation season has come and gone, places are less crowded because kids are back in school, and as a result, prices on airfare, accommodations, and even attractions have dropped. It's the perfect time to pay a visit to locations that are usually swarming with tourists and enjoy some serious natural beauty, luxury hotels, outdoor adventures, and more than a few glasses of wine.
