流金岁月

图|智慧文|非凡WTT瑞典大满贯，国乒新生代梯队再度折戟，男单赛场接连翻车！主力全员轮休练兵，本该是小将证明自我的舞台，结果却接连遭遇一轮游。    Tarun Mansukhani recently brought the Kapoor family together in Dining with the Kapoors, a Netflix documentary that offers a glimpse into the lives of one of India's biggest film families. The Dostana and Housefull 5 director served as creative producer on the show, which was created by Armaan Jain.     In an exclusive conversation with Filmfare, he talks about how the private family welcomed the cameras into their home. He opens up about the emotional visit to Raj Kapoor's Deonar Cottage and reflects on the different worlds of stardom he has experienced, from working with Shah Rukh Khan, the Bachchans and now, the Kapoors.     Excerpts:     How did you come on board for Dining with the Kapoors?      Armaan and I have known each other for a while. He was supposed to assist me when I was trying to make Dostana 2. The film didn't happen, but we kept in touch. About four years ago, he approached me with the idea that he wanted to do something with his family and food. Back then, I didn't know the family as intimately as I do now to realise how important food was to them. We kept brainstorming over random ideas until Armaan said that he wanted to have one lunch with all the family members coming together and the camera shooting them.      My first reaction was, 'Good luck with that,' because I knew the family was very private. They don't like cameras coming into their personal spaces. Even Ranbir and Alia had a very intimate wedding. I wondered how Armaan intends to pull it off, but we decided to give it a shot. That's when the process of speaking to all the family members began. I sometimes accidentally call them actors, but eventually, you realise they are just Armaan's family. They all agreed without hesitation.      Was it a logistical challenge deciding who would be present for the shoot?     I don't think there was any Kapoor family member who didn't want to be a part of it. In a family that has always done this as a ritual, there was no thought of excluding anyone or avoiding certain members. The challenge was about dates. We asked everyone to give us 10 options and mixed and matched until we found one date that worked for all. After we got the family together, it was then about capturing the moments between them. It has come out well. After a point, they let go of the fact that the cameras were recording them.          What was your most surprising discovery about the Kapoor family?     I had a perception of what the Kapoor family would be like behind closed doors, and it was completely shattered. You often see them as big actors and stars but in reality, they are just a normal family. Reema Jain feels like multiple aunts of mine and Dabbu uncle (Randhir Kapoor) was like my uncles with his sarcastic remarks. How they interact with each other is how we are with our cousins. What shocked me the most was the normalcy within the family. Nobody was a big star at the table. Everything was just about being together and wasn't anything to do with the film industry.      How was the mood during the shoot?     It was a bit odd at first with the paparazzi waiting for you, making it feel professional. But you look around and realise it's all family. You are meeting, greeting and talking and suddenly you realise there is a camera. So it stops you in that moment from being yourself. But slowly, you start to go back into being who you are.      When Ranbir and others went into the kitchen, that wasn't scripted. Armaan was arranging everything on his own and the family just decided to help. Navya and Shaira were plating, somebody else was putting tadka somewhere or buttering naans. Everything was just moving. They are like a big mad unit together.           With the changing definition of stardom, how would you define a star now?     Everyone is trying to figure it out. Earlier there were clear markers of stardom such as fan frenzy, brand deals or box office hits. Today, with the way the world has changed, our perception of stardom is gone. There is no metric that has popped up for us to reevaluate. Today, everyone is a star and yet no one will ever be Mr. Bachchan, SRK or Salman Khan. I don't think we will ever see that kind of fan frenzy but there will be a redefinition of stardom. Then there will be a lot of other stars.      If you could create a Dining with the Kapoors style show again with another film family, who would you pick?     With the other Kapoors - Mr Anil Kapoor and his family. We are in talks for a second season and hopefully, will get to announce something soon.      Also Read: Exclusive:Tarun Mansukhani on Unbreakable Bond With Karan Johar & Priyanka Chopra’s Desi Girl Legacy。独守上半区的陈俊菘苦战五局，惜败埃及名将阿萨尔，直接导致国乒男单上半区全军覆没，提前错失冠亚包揽资格。这场意料之外的爆冷，撕开了国乒新生代藏不住的短板，给青训体系狠狠敲响了警钟……2026年WTT欧洲大满贯瑞典站火热开打，本站赛事国乒教练组采用主力轮休策略，樊振东、王楚钦等一线核心全部缺席，全力给年轻队员让路。本次出征的队伍以00后新生代为主，陈俊菘、林诗栋、陈垣宇、温瑞博等小将悉数参赛，核心目标非常明确：通过高强度外战打磨技术、适应国际赛场节奏、补齐大赛抗压短板，为后续梯队接班铺路。在多数球迷眼中，缺少主力坐镇的瑞典站，即便无法稳稳包揽金牌，男单赛场也不该出现大面积翻车。毕竟国乒深耕乒坛多年，梯队底蕴深厚，面对欧亚外协选手尤其是非洲选手，向来具备压倒性优势。可真实赛场结果，狠狠打破了大众的固有认知，也给国乒青训工作敲响了重磅警钟。本次男单抽签结果其实暗藏巨大隐患，也是国乒本轮失利的关键伏笔。全队六名男单参赛选手，出现了极度不合理的签表分布：五名小将扎堆下半区，不仅容易出现队内内卷、自相消耗的情况，还会扎堆面临外协围剿；仅有21岁的陈俊菘一人镇守上半区，成为上半区唯一的国乒独苗。从赛事布局来看，这是绝佳的突围机会。只要陈俊菘稳定发挥，守住上半区席位，国乒就能实现上下半区双线发力，稳稳锁定决赛名额。下半区人才充足、上半区无内卷压力，堪称完美练兵签位。但竞技体育从来没有绝对的稳赢，绝佳的机遇，最终变成了最大的遗憾。本站男单首轮风波接连不断，国乒男单早早开启连败模式。

B | 首场内战对决中，陈垣宇对阵实力更强的林诗栋，全程被对手节奏压制，没能突破队内竞争，遗憾止步首轮，遭遇一轮游。这场内战失利属于正常梯队迭代结果，球迷尚且能够接受，真正引爆舆论、引发全网热议的，是随后到来的外战爆冷。陈俊菘迎战埃及一哥奥玛·阿萨尔的对决，赛前关注度并不算高，却成为本轮赛事最大冷门。很多球迷下意识认为，非洲选手整体实力偏弱，很难抗衡国乒正规梯队小将，赢下比赛是板上钉钉的事。但熟悉国际乒联排名和赛事数据的球迷都清楚，这是一场实打实的五五开硬仗，绝非单方面碾压局。这里补充一个全网少见的关键：两人赛前世界排名几乎持平，陈俊菘位列第37位，阿萨尔位列第35位，积分差距微乎其微。看似名不见经传的阿萨尔，绝非普通外协选手，而是非洲乒坛的绝对天花板。作为非洲杯常驻冠军，他常年代表非洲征战奥运会、世乒赛两大顶级赛事，多次闯入八强，交手过无数中日韩顶尖主力，大赛经验远超同龄国乒小将。

C | 反观陈俊菘，他是国乒队内极具特色的新生代选手，队内稀缺的反手生胶打法是他的核心亮点。这种打法前三板速度快、节奏变化诡异、突袭性极强，在队内选拔赛中屡创佳绩，能够打乱主力节奏，潜力备受教练组认可。但生胶打法自带致命短板，也是本次输球的核心关键：中远台相持能力薄弱、旋转变化单一，一旦被对手适应节奏，很容易被针对性破解。除此之外，陈俊菘的大赛短板十分突出。相较于常年征战国际赛场的阿萨尔，他的海外大赛出场次数有限，关键分抗压能力、赛场局势判断力、临场调整速度都存在明显差距。简单来说，他有技术、有天赋，但缺少硬仗淬炼，心态和经验远远跟不上技术进度。整场五局对决，局势跌宕起伏，比赛走势完全贴合两人的技术和心态特点。首局开局，双方迅速进入竞技状态，比分交替上涨，全程紧咬不放。面对阿萨尔标志性的暴力正手进攻，陈俊菘打得过于保守，全程被动防守，不敢主动上手搏杀，放弃了生胶打法的速度优势。局末关键分阶段，他出手犹豫、心态紧绷，接连出现低级无谓失误，最终以9-13遗憾落败，让对手率先拿下赛点优势。第二局是整场比赛最遗憾、最能暴露小将心态短板的一局，也是改变比赛走向的转折点。

D | 调整状态后，陈俊菘逐渐找到进攻节奏，中局顺利反超比分，多次手握局点，距离扳平比分仅一步之遥。为了稳住局势，他还主动申请暂停调整战术，足以证明当时的绝对优势。

E | 但暂停过后，他的心态彻底失衡，战术执行混乱，不敢果断出手，频繁出现旋转判断失误。经验老道的阿萨尔抓住漏洞，稳扎稳打追平比分，在拉锯战中完成逆转，以15-13再下一城，将大比分扩大为2-0。零比二落后被逼入绝境后，陈俊菘彻底卸下心理包袱，反而打出了最佳状态。背水一战的他不再畏手畏脚，主动强化前三板抢攻，频繁利用生胶的速度和节奏变化突袭对手，彻底打乱了阿萨尔的防守节奏。

F | 对手一时间难以适应突变的打法，失误明显增多，陈俊菘顺势掌控全局，以11-6干脆利落拿下第三局，吹响反击号角。稳住阵脚的陈俊菘在第四局延续火热手感，攻防衔接流畅，相持对抗敢于发力，没有给对手任何反扑机会。全程节奏把控精准，进攻犀利、防守稳健，再度以11-7拿下本局，顽强将大比分扳为2-2平，成功把比赛拖入决胜局。短短两局的强势反扑，足以证明陈俊菘的硬实力，也让球迷看到了逆转翻盘的希望。可惜决胜局的较量，再次暴露了新生代小将的致命短板。进入决胜局的高压赛场，陈俊菘心态再度波动，开局出手慌乱，衔接出现严重断层，发球、接发球连续失误。反观阿萨尔，久经大赛考验，心态极其沉稳，抓住对手失误漏洞持续得分，很快拉开分差，打出9-3的悬殊优势。尽管陈俊菘后续奋力追分、极限反扑，但前期分差过大，最终无力回天，以7-11惜败，总比分2-3爆冷出局。这场失利的影响，远比一场单打淘汰更加深远。随着陈俊菘出局，国乒男单上半区彻底全军覆没，原本绝佳的半区优势彻底作废。下半区小将扎堆内卷、内耗严重，上半区无人镇守，国乒直接提前无缘本次男单冠亚军包揽，练兵之战彻底沦为遗憾之战。

G | 结合近期多站赛事不难发现，这早已不是偶然翻车。

H | 从横滨冠军赛新生代全员止步16强，到本次瑞典站开局两连败，国乒新生代梯队的问题已经全面凸显。如今外协队伍早已打破地域局限，非洲、欧洲选手不再是陪跑角色，阿萨尔这类顶尖选手技术全面、心态成熟，专门克制国乒年轻队员的快节奏打法，新生代的技术优势正在逐步消失。同时，本场比赛也暴露了国乒青训的核心弊端：队内竞争激烈但外战淬炼不足。年轻队员在队内选拔赛表现亮眼，却缺少和海外顶尖选手对抗的经验，面对陌生球风、暴力打法极易崩盘。生胶、长胶等特殊打法队员，更是缺少针对性外战训练，一旦被对手适应节奏，就没有后手战术，容错率极低。纵观整场对决，输球从来不是实力碾压，而是输在心态、经验和临场调整。陈俊菘有赢球的实力，却没有守住胜利的心态，两度手握优势被逆转，足以说明新生代队员的抗压能力亟待提升。不过球迷也无需过度悲观，练兵赛的意义本就是发现问题、解决问题。这场爆冷失利，是一次深刻的警示，让教练组看清新生代梯队的短板。希望年轻队员能够正视差距，总结关键分失误、心态波动的问题，补齐大赛经验短板，未来在国际赛场稳步成长，用实力回击所有质疑。
