Stars often undergo cosmetic and corrective surgeries on various parts of the body. But actress Mehreen took a less-trodden path to maintain her looks. A couple of days ago, she visited the famous Dr John Tsagaris, a wellness and acupuncture specialist in London, for a procedure on her face.
Mehreen, who says she prefers traditional methods of treatment to medicines, explains that acupuncture can be extended for cosmetic procedures too.
The actress first read about the doctor in a magazine, and wanted to get the treatment done by him as he is reputed to be the best in the world. “I don’t believe in fillers and botox!” the Raja The Great star says, adding, from inserting needles painlessly into specific spots to finally cleaning up the face, the entire process took an hour .“Initially three pins were put on my ears and then on my face. This is the first time I am undergoing such a treatment and it’s been great and amazing. I could see the results immediately,” she says.
“Facial acupuncture makes my skin look younger, smoother and healthier. It addresses not only signs of aging, but also the skin’s overall health and appearance,” shares Mehreen, adding that the treatment boosts the production of collagen and makes the skin tauter.
Mehreen, who is also an adventure freak, recently did some diving in the Maldives. A certified scuba diver, she relishes taking up adventure sports whenever she visits an island country. “I love taking up tasks that push me and I love adventure sports. Being adventurous is like therapy. It changed me a lot. Underwater life makes me feel very peaceful,” she says and shares that it gave her a different perspective on life.

Suriya Agaram Foundation Transforms Thousands of Student Lives
Beyond entertaining audiences on the big screen, many celebrities are now earning praise for making a meaningful impact in real life by supporting people in need. In recent years, several film personalities have been seen stepping beyond cinema to extend financial, medical, and social assistance, turning into real-life heroes in the eyes of fans.
Megastar Chiranjeevi and actor Sonu Sood are often highlighted as leading examples, as they have consistently supported people during difficult times. From providing financial help to arranging medical aid and even assisting with employment opportunities, their efforts have earned widespread appreciation.
However, among such inspiring stories, Kollywood star Suriya stands out for his strong focus on education-based philanthropy. Through his Agaram Foundation, he has been actively working to transform the lives of underprivileged students by supporting their higher education and career aspirations.
Suriya established the Agaram Foundation in 2006 with the vision of helping students from rural and economically weaker backgrounds pursue higher education. Many first-generation learners, especially from villages, face financial barriers that prevent them from continuing their studies. The foundation has been working to bridge this gap by offering scholarships, mentorship, academic guidance, and institutional support.
Through its structured programs, Agaram Foundation helps students become doctors, engineers, and professionals by providing continuous academic and emotional support. Reports suggest that by 2025, the foundation has positively impacted over 8,000 students, including more than 6,700 first-generation graduates who have successfully entered the professional world.
The initiative also supports students from marginalized communities, including Dalit and tribal groups, as well as Sri Lankan refugee families. By partnering with educational institutions, the foundation helps students secure admissions, accommodation, and other essential resources required for higher studies.
Overall, the foundation’s work has reportedly contributed to the emergence of around 51 doctors and nearly 1,800 engineers, reflecting the long-term impact of sustained educational support. Suriya’s efforts send a powerful message that true stardom is not just about success in films, but also about transforming lives and creating opportunities for others.
