Ileana D'Cruz has always kept her personal life quite private. The actress, who has been away from the limelight for quite some time now, broke the internet by dropping the first picture of her 2nd son. The Barfi star is now a mom to two adorable sons, the elder one named Koa Phoenix Dolan and the younger son named Keanu Rafe Dolan. Although she has never spoken much about her husband, Michael Dolan, her few mushy posts with him speak volumes and are proof of their bond.
Who is Michael Dolan?
Ileana D'Cruz's hubby, Michael Dolan, was born on June 21 in Oklahoma City, USA. The one thing common between the actress and her husband is that they both belong to the creative world of cinema. Dolan is an actor and filmmaker and has acted in a couple of hit movies.
The films under his credit are, namely, Light Of Day (1987), Biloxi Blues (1988), Courage Under Fire (1996), and Lolita (1997). His directorial work includes Arrow Shot (1997 short film). This film premiered at Sundance. The other one includes Dance With The One. This 2010 film was a full-length feature made with the University of Texas Film Institute.
Relationship with Ileana D'Cruz
Not much is known about how the lovebirds met, but in an interview, Ileana D'Cruz had once revealed that she loves mystery in her life. The actress admitted that she has intentionally kept details private. But some reports suggest that these two met in early 2022, and their connection grew quickly and deeply.
Ileana and Michael secretly got hitched in May 2023 in an intimate ceremony away from the media glare. The actress did not even post her wedding pictures or share the news with her fans. Months after tying the knot, the Do Aur Do Pyaar star casually referred to Michael as her husband in an interview. She said their married life is beautiful and praised Michael for being her emotional anchor.
Even Michael Dolan stays away from the media glare despite being a part of the Hollywood industry. Together, they have created their own La La Land, and now with the arrival of their second son, their family is complete.

Ranbir Kapoor Dropped THIS Veteran Singers Biopic For Nitesh Tiwaris Ramayana- Check Details

New Delhi: Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor has already generated buzz with his upcoming movie Ramayana, where he will be seen portraying Lord Ram. The much-anticipated film will be released in two parts the first in Diwali 2026 and the second in Diwali 2027. However, this commitment came at the cost of another major project. In a conversation with BBC News, director Anurag Basu revealed that Ranbir Kapoor had to let go of the long-awaited biopic of legendary singer Kishore Kumar. 'Ranbir had a tough choice in life — Kishore Kumar or Ramayana. It was very difficult for him. In the end, he chose Ramayana, and I think it was the right decision,' Basu said. Basu, who was set to direct the biopic, has previously collaborated with Ranbir on acclaimed films like Barfi (2012) and Jagga Jasoos (2017). The duo has often expressed their desire to work together again, but conflicting schedules have stood in the way. 'We keep trying to work together, but it's just not happening,' Basu added. A report by Indian Express stated that after Ranbir turned down the biopic, Aamir Khan was reportedly considered for the role of Kishore Kumar. However, Basu did not confirm this and told Mid-Day, 'Until everything is finalised and the contract is signed, I don't think I should speak on it. This project has seen many ups and downs over the years. So, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it happens this time and I go on set with the story, which I've been trying to tell for the last decade. I won't jinx it by speaking about it.' Apart from Ranbir Kapoor, Ramayana also stars Sai Pallavi, Sunny Deol, Arun Govil, Ravi Dubey, and Lara Dutta. The two-part epic is set to hit theatres on Diwali 2026 and Diwali 2027. Meanwhile, Anurag Basu's directorial Metro... In Dino premiered theatrically on July 4 and received positive reviews. His next film, starring Kartik Aaryan and Sreeleela, is reportedly scheduled for release in 2026.
