Sshura Khan describes her life with husband Arbaaz Khan as her ‘favourite kind of chaos’ while celebrating their second wedding anniversary.

Celebrating Two Years of Togetherness

To mark this special occasion, Sshura shared several fun videos on social media showcasing Arbaaz dancing on various lively Bollywood numbers, truly channeling his inner child.

In a heartfelt message to her “forever entertainer and love,” she wrote, “When I say never a dull moment, I don’t exaggerate…! One year. Countless videos. Endless laughs. Life with you is my favourite kind of chaos. Happy Anniversary to my forever entertainer and forever love ❤️❤️ (sic).”

A Beautiful Beginning

According to reports, Sshura and Arbaaz first crossed paths on the sets of the movie “Patna Shukla,” where Sshura worked as the makeup artist for the leading lady, Raveena Tandon. Their relationship blossomed, leading the couple to tie the knot in an intimate ceremony in Mumbai in December 2021.

Welcoming a New Member

The couple welcomed their first child, a baby girl, on October 5 of this year. They have named her Sipaara Khan. In a joint social media post revealing their daughter’s name, the couple expressed their joy with the caption, “Alhamdulillah” and a red heart emoji.

Family Ties

For context, Arbaaz was previously married to actress Malaika Arora, with whom he shares a 22-year-old son, Arhaan Khan.

Recently, Arbaaz and Sshura shared the first glimpses of their newborn daughter on social media, posting adorable pictures of her tiny hands and feet. They captioned one post, “The tiniest hands and feet, but the biggest part of our heart #sipaarakhan.”

The main image featured Arbaaz and Sshura gently cradling their baby girl’s tiny feet, followed by a touching moment of their little one grasping her father’s thumb.

Working in films as varied as “Housefull 5,” “Parikrama,” and “Raat Akeli Hai – The Bansal Murders” within a single year, Chitrangda Singh shares that 2025 has been a unique time for her, filled with diverse opportunities that came her way organically, without any strategic planning.

From the comedic escapades in “Housefull 5” to the introspective emotional journey in “Parikrama,” and the unsettling moral complexities of “Raat Akeli Hai – The Bansal Murders,” Chitrangda has demonstrated her acting versatility across these three distinct genres.

When asked if this diversity reflected a purposeful shift in her creative choices, Chitrangda candidly admitted, “Well, I wish I could say that, this whole diversity was deliberate… recalibration like you’re putting it about my creative choices. But no, I’m sorry, it wasn’t.”

She explained that she allowed her work to guide her journey, agreeing to projects as they unfolded naturally. “It just honestly landed one after the other. I didn’t expect it to come in that manner or in that order. But it did come to me like that this year. And I just kept saying yes,” she revealed.

Having made her acting debut with the crime drama “Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi” in 2005, Chitrangda views this phase as a stroke of good luck, grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with renowned filmmakers like Neeraj Pandey, Tarun Mansukhani, and Gautam Ghosh.

“I was just kind of thanking, you know, my stars that I got a chance to work with such different makers, whether it was Neeraj Pandey, who produced ‘Khakee: The Bengal Chapter,’ or Gautam Ghosh for ‘Parikrama,’ then Tarun Mansukhani, known for completely different cinema with ‘Housefull’…and then Haneet Rehan for ‘Raat Akeli,’” she expressed.

With more projects in the pipeline, including “Galwan” alongside Salman Khan, Chitrangda feels that this year has reinforced her belief in letting her professional path unfold naturally. “Now ‘Galwan’ with Salman. So I feel like it’s just been one of those very rare years where, you know, an actor can get a chance to work with such different makers. So no, there was no planning. And I can only say thanks, you know, to whatever out there that made this happen.”

Actress Shefali Shah is opening up about her thoughts on magic, delusion, and gratitude. Recently, she shared a series of pictures from her Christmas celebrations on Instagram, capturing the festive spirit.

Reflecting on her childhood, Shefali recalled a particularly impactful Christmas Eve when her belief in Santa Claus was challenged by an uncle.

“That Christmas Eve is sharply etched in my memory. I must’ve been 12 or 13. One spoilsport uncle said to me, ‘You don’t actually believe there is a Santa, right? There is no Santa. It’s just your parents leaving gifts for you.’ This statement was a colossal blow to my naive, innocent heart. My disbelief at what he said was mammoth. My arguments of how he was wrong, me trying to convince him—and more myself—that Santa was real. I cannot begin to tell you what I felt. It was something within me separated from my heart. I tried holding onto it, clutching, grasping, hanging on to this fragile hope, but some idiot had put a pin in my full-of-belief floating balloon.”

She emphasized the emotional turmoil that followed, expressing, “I should’ve appreciated what my parents did for me, pampering me with gifts they probably couldn’t afford. But I felt cheated by them. Once a belief is broken, it’s not possible to build it back, particularly when Santa didn’t ever come and tell me otherwise. That day, not only did I lose some of my naivete, my innocence, and the blind trust in possibilities and belief in magic, but I also lost my childhood.”

Shefali shared how the spirit of stories and magic returned when she became a mother. “With Santa gone, that child in me too left. But when I had my kids, the spirit of stories and tales and magic came back. Yes, we were the Santas, but the gift of innocence and possibilities was revived. I tried to keep that world alive for them as long as I could. But eventually, they outgrew it. But you know what’s beautiful? It’s beautiful to know otherwise and still believe in magic. Magic came wrapped in ribbons, stuffed in stockings, and born from a parent’s heart. Here, delulu is actually the solulu,” she added.

Actress Sara Ali Khan recently reflected on her time shooting Aanand L. Rai’s romantic entertainer “Atrangi Re,” calling it the best part of her year in 2020 as the film celebrated its 4th anniversary on Wednesday.

Sara shared a heartfelt message on her Instagram Stories, describing the memories from the set as precious and everlasting. She posted a photo collage showcasing behind-the-scenes moments from “Atrangi Re.”

“4 years… How time flies sir @AanandLRai… Truly the best moments of 2020. I knew that then and such precious memories that I will cherish forever. I know that now,” Sara wrote.

The film, scripted by Himanshu Sharma and produced by T-Series Films, Colour Yellow Productions, and Cape of Good Films, also stars Dhanush and Akshay Kumar in significant roles.

“Atrangi Re” narrates the unique journey of Rinku Suryavanshi (played by Sara), who is deeply in love with a magician named Sajjad (played by Akshay). However, she finds herself in a complicated situation as she is coerced into marrying Dr. Vishu (played by Dhanush), who is already engaged to another woman.

Looking ahead, Sara will appear alongside Ayushmann Khurrana and Wamiqa Gabbi in Mudassar Aziz’s film “Pati Patni Aur Woh Do.”

This upcoming movie is a sequel to the 2019 drama “Pati Patni Aur Woh,” which featured Kartik Aaryan, Bhumi Pednekar, and Ananya Panday. It is slated for release in cinemas on March 4, 2026.

The makers announced the cast and release date on social media, stating, “Har pati ki hoti hai, apni ek aflatoon duniya… Jo unko bhale hi satati ho, magar hum sabki badha hasati hai! Introducing the world of #PrajapatiPandey starring Ayushmann Khurrana in #PatiPatniAurWohDo. With #SaraAliKhan, #WamiqaGabbi, and #RakulPreetSingh joining the ride, this #MudassarAziz directorial, produced by Bhushan Kumar, Renu Ravi Chopra, and creatively produced by Juno Chopra, brings laughter, love, and chaos this Holi on 4th March 2026.”

Popular television actress Shraddha Arya has taken on the role of host for the New Year edition of “Zee Rishton Ka Mela,” joining actor Jay Bhanushali in this exciting endeavor.

A Celebration of Love and Warmth

In an exclusive conversation, Shraddha described her hosting experience as “one big celebration filled with warmth and love.” She also shared her thoughts on balancing work with motherhood, highlighting the challenges and joys that come with it.

“Balancing motherhood and shootings has been a beautiful learning experience for me. There are days when it does get overwhelming, and I do miss my kids a lot when I’m away on set. Even while shooting, a part of my heart is always with them. But all of it feels worth it when I return home after a long day at work, and they welcome me with the tightest hugs. That moment instantly melts all the tiredness away and reminds me why I put my heart into balancing both worlds,” she expressed.

Supportive Environment

Shraddha noted that her support system, both at home and on set, has made things easier. “Shooting with the Zee TV team honestly makes work feel easier; they understand my journey, respect my time, and that comfort really reflects in my performance. Hosting Zee Rishton Ka Mela 2025 and welcoming the New Year with the Zee TV family was truly special. It felt like a big celebration filled with warmth, memories, and love.”

She also mentioned how special it is that people on set still refer to her as Preeta from “Kundali Bhagya.” “Sometimes it feels like Kundali Bhagya is still on air and I’m shooting for it regularly. I absolutely love being Preeta; she has given me so much love, recognition, and emotional connection. Preeta will always be a part of me, no matter what I do next,” Shraddha added.

Boney shared a nostalgic black-and-white photograph of the Kapoor family, inviting followers to play a fun game of spotting Anil among them. He also offered an exciting reward for the winners.

“Spot Anil in this picture along with any 4 others in the picture & win a lunch date with him! Only the first 2 winners will be invited for sumptuous lunch with Anil,” Boney wrote in his post.

Anil’s younger brother, Sanjay Kapoor, also joined in the celebrations, posting a throwback image of the Kapoor brothers. He included a heartfelt note that read, “Happy birthday big brother, lots of love! You’ve been an inspiration for the whole family and me, so keep inspiring and showing us the path!”

The post featured more recent snapshots of Sanjay, Anil, and Boney, showcasing the close bond they share.

Anil, Boney, and Sanjay are the sons of producer Surinder Kapoor and Nirmal Kapoor. They also have a sister, Reena Marwah.

In a touching tribute, Anil celebrated his father’s 100th birthday on Instagram, honoring the man who significantly influenced his career.

Reflecting on his father’s guidance in shaping iconic films like “Mr. India” and “Woh 7 din,” Anil shared, “Celebrating 100 years of my father today. He was the reason I first dreamed of becoming a leading man, simply hoping he would one day see me as a star, a successful actor making films under his banner.”

He added, “Woh 7 din and MR. India wouldn’t have seen the light of day without his goodwill and guidance. His simplicity, honesty, and quiet belief shaped every step of my journey. I feel his absence deeply, but his dreams and lessons live on with me every day… Happy Birthday Papa! You were, are and always will be my guiding star…”

The show Prathaon Ki Odhe Chunri: Beendani on the Sun Neo channel is set to see a compelling new character with veteran actress Apara Mehta stepping in as Rajeshree Bua, an old-school and highly orthodox woman.

While Apara’s character embodies regressive values and a traditional mindset, she herself holds a modern perspective.

Apara expressed, “If you ask me personally, my thinking is quite modern. We are already 25 years into the 21st century, and it’s time we let go of outdated systems. Women deserve freedom, education, skills, and independence; they should have every opportunity to stand strong on their own.”

Discussing her decision to join the show, she shared, “Over the years, I have been part of nearly thirty-five daily shows and have worked with almost every television channel, even some that no longer exist today.”

She noted, “However, Sun Neo was one channel I hadn’t worked with before. At the time, I was receiving several daily show offers. But the moment I heard the concept of Beendani and understood my character, something just clicked. I felt, ‘This is the one I want to do.’ That’s why, after a six-month break, I decided to return to a daily show. What made it even more special is that I am wearing Rajasthani attire for the first time, and I truly loved every bit of it.”

Regarding her character, Apara described Bua as the eldest member and head of the family, saying, “She commands respect naturally. She is deeply rooted in traditions and firmly believes in customs and rituals.”

Further elaborating, she explained, “Being modern doesn’t appeal to Bua; she feels that following age-old traditions is what keeps a family together. Her thinking is very old-school. That said, she isn’t negative at all. She simply believes in doing things the way they have always been done. Change is not something she welcomes, and even accepting today’s mindset feels difficult for her.”

The recent promo of the show introduced her character through graceful visuals of rituals, highlighting a moment where a book is quietly set aside, signaling a return to tradition.

Apara Mehta has been a prominent figure in the entertainment industry for over three decades. Her memorable role as Savita Virani in the iconic show Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi in 2000 continues to be celebrated.

Excitement Builds Among Fans

This ambitious project is said to be based on a powerful script originally conceived for Allu Arjun, generating immense excitement among both fans and the film fraternity.

The film has already generated substantial expectations, as it is believed to be unlike any other film ever produced. World-class experts will be involved in its creation, promising a truly unique cinematic experience.
