Harshvardhan Rane, known for his acting skills in Haseen Dillruba, Sanam Teri Kasam, Paltan, and more, took to his Instagram Stories to give a piece of advice to Babil Khan. In his post, the fitness enthusiast penned, “Dear Babil Khan, you're blessed with God-level genetics in acting; we need you to carry on the legacy! Please just give your best to the craft and after that, ‘stay away from the events and after parties,’ so as to avoid interaction with irritants."

Rane further added in his note, “I am not from a film family. I have learnt that people won't treat you badly if you don't allow them. You need to ‘stand your ground.’ … Also, please ‘stay away from alcohol and any such stuff,’ because to stand tall, you will need strength. Please take care.”

Harshvardhan Rane’s advice to Babil Khan:

This comes after a crying video of the Qala actor went viral on April 4, 2025.

There are so many more names. Bollywood is so f***. Bollywood is so sc***ed.”

He added, “Bollywood is the most fakest, fakest, fakest industry that I've ever ever been a part of. But there are a few people who want Bollywood to be better (smiles)...I got to show to you so much more, so much more, so much more. I have so much more to give you.....”
