VEDANG RAINA IS PERFECT EYE CANDY MATERIAL. HE TELLS TANZIM PARDIWALLA THAT THERE'S MORE TO HIM THAN HANDSOME GOOD LOOKS
-
"Why do men chop their hair as soon as it gets to the perfect length?" I ask The Archies' fame, Vedang Raina. His perfectly curled hair in the Zoya Akhtar directorial starring Suhana Khan, Khushi Kapoor, Agastya Nanda, Mihir Ahuja, Dot, and Yuvraj Menda made waves along with his screen presence. Post-release, he made appearances in a crew cut. The newcomer laughs in response, coyly hinting at an upcoming project. "I was happy with the length of my hair. It was a huge part of Reggie's character. Let's just say it wasn't by choice.
Circumstances led to the chopping of the hair." The 28-year-old actor who played the role of Reggie Mantle in the Indian musical adaptation of the popular Archie comics is already speculated to be a part of Alia Bhatt's upcoming film Jigra.
Vedang doesn't admit it, but he has garnered a fan following of his own. "So many people flooding me with messages is overwhelming. I don't know if this is the case with every film. But at this point, I'm pretty much seeing a lot of comments and DMs, even though I haven't been able to reply. I see people showing a lot of love and support and I'm extremely grateful for that," he adds.
After the film's release, netizens compared the newbie to a young Ranveer Singh. When asked about the flattering comparison, he quips, "Ranveer Singh is one of the finest actors today. I know the comparison is more of a visual resemblance. I have no right to be compared to someone like him who has proven himself time and again. But to be compared to him in any light is a great feeling. He's fantastic. So I'm grateful, and I'm glad that people see something there."

What price, haste?
In an age where news races faster than verification, the recent swirl of false reports about Dharmendra's “death” stands as a sobering reminder of why editorial restraint is not merely advisable, it is essential. The episode, which saw unverified claims snowball across social media and even seep into mainstream channels, exposed a troubling vacuum where speed repeatedly outran accuracy. The actor had merely been hospitalised and was, according to his family, “stable and recovering”, yet misinformation spread with the confidence of confirmed fact.
