Actor Vijay Varma, who received recognition with Amitabh Bachchan and Taapsee Pannu-starrer Pink in 2016, is one of the most versatile actors in current times. Best known for his work in Mirzapur, Pink, and Gully Boy, Vijay is now gearing up for his upcoming series, IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack. Vijay Varma recently recalled when he went through the ‘lowest’ phase of his life when he had Rs 18 in his bank account. The Mirzapur actor shared that he wasn’t on talking terms with his father back then.

During his new interview with Shubhankar Mishra on YouTube, Vijay Varma was asked if the rumor of him having Rs 18 in his bank account was true. To which, Vijay agreed that the incident indeed took place in his life.

Calling it the “lowest low” phase, the Lust Stories 2 actor recalled that he could either eat panipuri worth Rs 12 or idli worth Rs 13, with Rs 18 in his bank balance. The host quizzed him about why he was in that situation, as he hailed from a family with a comfortable income.

The Gully Boy actor stated that he had stopped asking for money from his family. “Meri baat-cheet ho nahin rahi thi mere pitaji se (I wasn’t on talking terms with my father),” Vijay expressed.

“Aur mujhe kisi samjhdaar aadmi ne bola ki jab tak tera rent aur basic kharcha aata rahega, tu hilega nahin. Tere andar jo fire hai usko thoda jalane de…(An intelligent person had told me that till the time you are getting money for rent and basic expenses, you won’t move. You have a fire inside; let it burn),” he added. Vijay remembered his condition of feeling like he had lost everything.

In IC 814: The Kandahar Hijack, Vijay Varma portrays Captain Devi Sharan, the pilot during the 1999 hijacking. The series, directed by Anubhav Sinha and starring Naseeruddin Shah, Pankaj Kapur, and Dia Mirza, will premiere on Netflix on August 29 this year. It depicts the events of the 1999 hijacking of Indian Airlines Flight 814.

Khloe Kardashian is getting all sentimental about sending her daughter True Thompson off to first grade. On August 26, the reality TV star revealed that she is having a hard time adjusting to the fact that her daughter, True, is already in first grade. She conveyed her feelings through an emotional note on Snapchat. She wrote, “It’s always such a rollercoaster of emotions when True starts a new school year. This year is a big milestone for her… first grade. I’m not going to lie, I am having a really hard time processing the fact that she’s going into first grade.”

Khloe also admitted that she is overwhelmed with feelings of loss, anxiety, and fear as her daughter is starting a new journey.

“There’s this undeniable feeling that I’m losing parts of who she was with each day that passes,” she further wrote.“The little parts of who she used to be are being replaced with new parts that will make up the next little amazing person she will become. And I miss her. All the little versions of her who I used to know. Time moves fast, faster every year it feels like, and this new school year is a reminder to me to fully embrace every moment and soak it all in.” she continued

She further admitted how lucky she is to have True as her daughter, “She is more than I could ever have dreamed of in a daughter”. “Seeing her grow makes me excited for the years and experiences ahead” she added.

Khloe’s fear and worries, however, didn’t stop her from being extremely proud of her daughter and celebrating her accomplishment.

On August 27, Khloe shared a carousel of pictures on Instagram to celebrate her daughter’s first day of school in first grade. “First Grade!!! True I am so proud of you!! I know you’re going to have the most incredible year ahead of you! I couldn’t be happier for you my angel. I’m not ok but I’ll pull it together by pick up time.”

In the pictures Khloe shared, she can be seen posing with her daughter True, son Tatum, and their family cat, in front of a setting of giant crayon box and lots of pastel balloons decorated to celebrate the occasion.
