The entertainment world is buzzing with commentary and humor, as Raghav Juyal seemingly took a dig at celebrities using Ozempic, while Bobby Deol appears to be playfully mocked for his role in "Lakshya". This comes amidst the release of "The Ba***ds of Bollywood," a new series featuring both Juyal and Deol, which is directed by Aryan Khan.

Raghav Juyal's Ozempic Comment

Raghav Juyal's comment seemingly targeting celebrities using Ozempic has sparked discussions about the pressures of maintaining a certain body image in the entertainment industry. Ozempic is a medication primarily used for managing type 2 diabetes, but it has gained attention for its off-label use as a weight loss drug. Some celebrities have openly discussed their experiences with Ozempic, while others have been accused of using it without acknowledging it.

Juyal's statement, though indirect, touches upon a sensitive topic: the potential misuse of prescription drugs for cosmetic purposes and the impact on those who genuinely need them. There have been reports of shortages of Ozempic due to its popularity as a weight loss aid, leaving individuals with diabetes struggling to obtain the medication. By bringing attention to this issue, Juyal may be encouraging a more honest and responsible dialogue around body image and the use of medications for weight loss.

Bobby Deol's "Lakshya" Mocked

In a lighter vein, Bobby Deol is seemingly being teased for his performance in the film "Lakshya". While details of the mockery are sparse, it appears to be good-natured ribbing, possibly related to Deol's character or the film's overall reception. "Lakshya," released in 2004, is a coming-of-age war drama directed by Farhan Akhtar, where Deol plays a supporting role.

"The Ba***ds of Bollywood"

Both Raghav Juyal and Bobby Deol are currently in the spotlight due to their involvement in "The Ba***ds of Bollywood". This series marks Aryan Khan's directorial debut and offers a satirical take on the Hindi film industry. The show features a host of actors, including Lakshya, Sahher Bammba, Anya Singh, Manoj Pahwa and Mona Singh.

The series is described as messy, corny, chaotic, and wildly entertaining, with digs at the industry's hypocrisies. Aryan Khan doesn't shy away from pulling the curtain on Bollywood's double standards, showcasing success parties that turn into nightmares, producers who smile in one scene and scheme in the next, and friendships that collapse under ego.

Lakshya plays Aasman Singh, the anchor of the show, with charm and flamboyance. His arrogance becomes a lens to explore ambition, vulnerability, and the messy compromises of survival. Bobby Deol's character makes an impact, and the series incorporates a twist related to his past. It is revealed that Lakshya’s character is the illegitimate son of Bobby Deol's character.

Reception and Release

"The Ba***ds of Bollywood" premiered on Netflix on September 18 and has been receiving mixed reviews. Some critics have praised its bold approach and satirical humor, while others have found it to be uneven. The performances of the cast, particularly Lakshya, have been noted. The series is produced by Gauri Khan's Red Chillies Entertainment.
