It is a complete package’: Prerna Lisa about her release Badi Heroine Banti Hai
Mumbai: – Amazon miniTV – Amazon’s free video streaming service recently released its rom-com series, Badi Heroine Banti Hai. Capturing the essence of romance, drama, thrill, and mystery, the series chronicles the story of Kajal as she moves to Mumbai from a small town and her fates get tangled with her CEO Advait, igniting a love-hate relationship between them. Prerna Lisa who essays the character of the quirky and fun-loving Kajal, recently shared her thoughts on the series.
Talking about what makes the series special and distinct from other rom-coms, Prerna Lisa shared, “I think the fact that it has everything is what makes it so special and different. You can’t specify it or categorize it in any particular genre. Though it shifts towards an angle of romantic drama, it also is a beautiful amalgamation of thrill, mystery, comedy, and all the things that you might or might not expect from a series. It is a complete package for sure.”
Talking about the series Prerna further shared her thoughts, saying, “It will surely be Badi Heroine Banti Hai since it is a romantic comedy. And I have already seen it, so hands down it is my favorite.”
Created by Gul Khan, Badi Heroine Banti Hai features Prerna Lisa, Rajeev Siddhartha, Nehal Chudasama, and Utkarsh Kohli in pivotal roles. The series is streaming exclusively on Amazon miniTV for free, available on Amazon’s shopping app, on Fire TV, and Play Store.

ITC Sunfeast, Zepto host mango-themed experiential ‘Paglu Party’
Event blends Alphonso desserts, DIY sessions and interactive formats
MUMBAI: When mango season peaks, some savour it others go full ‘paglu’. ITC Sunfeast Baked Creations, in collaboration with Zepto, turned summer indulgence into an immersive brand experience with its ‘Mango Paglu Party’, a high-energy, mango-themed event designed to blur the line between dessert and discovery. Built around the brand’s ‘Mad Over Mangoes’ universe, the space leaned into a sensory overload bright, playful and unapologetically mango-drenched. From curated installations to social-first corners, every element was designed to be as shareable as it was experiential.
At the centre of the celebration was the fruit itself, elevated into a menu crafted using fresh, carbide-free Alphonso mangoes sourced by Zepto. The spread ranged from a flaky Mango Pista Kouign Aman to Mango Coconut Serradura Pudding and a Mango Mascarpone Cake, balancing indulgence with seasonal freshness.
But this was not a passive tasting affair. Guests were drawn into the experience through interactive formats, including a DIY dessert session led by the brand’s chef, where attendees created classics like Mango Tres Leches. Zepto chief business officer Chandan Mehndiratta also joined the session, adding a touch of brand personality to the proceedings.
A quirky highlight came in the form of the ‘Aam Paglu Prescription’, a playful, doctor-themed concept that positioned mango indulgence as the only “treatment” worth taking, turning a simple insight into a memorable activation.
The event built up to a theatrical finale, with the crowning of the ‘Aam Paglu of the Day’ followed by the cutting of an oversized mango-shaped Mango Mascarpone Cake, closing the experience on a high note.
More than just a seasonal showcase, the Mango Paglu Party reflects a broader shift in brand storytelling, where products are no longer just consumed, but experienced. For ITC Sunfeast Baked Creations and Zepto, mango season was not just about flavour, it was about creating a moment that audiences could step into, engage with and, quite literally, devour.
