Upasana Konidela takes us inside Ram Charan and her stunning South Indian-style Hyderabadi villa
Upasana Kamineni Konidela, Vice Chairperson – CSR – Apollo Hospitals, and wife to Telugu superstar Ram Charan, recently opened up her house for a rare visit. The power couple, who generally like to keep away from public and media scrutiny, took host and interviewer Kamiya Jani around for a tour around their luxe Hyderabad house, flanked by manicured gardens and lush greenery. Soft white exteriors juxtaposed with glass accents give it a modern-day royal palace look. Despite being located in the middle of a bustling city, their home manages to retain a vintage, earthy feel. The fact that the couple enjoys nature is well reflected in the bits and pieces scattered all around. The seating area outside features plush patio furniture, perfect for enjoying breezy evenings and a cup of tea. Their garage is well concealed in the exterior with creepers replacing a heavy gate. Step inside the house and you are welcomed by a living room that transports you back to a traditional South Indian home, with rich upholstered sofas and chairs and black and white flooring. Old school windows allow sun rays to peek through and bathe the room in light and shadows. A blend of modern design and a nod to their cultural roots. A post shared by Curly Tales | A Fork Media Group Co. (@ Catching a break in between the house tour, Upasana spilled the tea on who among the two can tolerate spicy food, and Charan's love for rasam. 'We used to go to the best restaurants in the world, and then he would come back and say, 'Okay, now, I need Indian food, where are we going to find Indian food?' She shared how any of his meals of the day have to be Indian, and South Indian in particular. From antique wooden artifacts, traditional showpieces, and unique collectibles sourced from travels around the world, the interior decor is an amalgamation of their travels and lived experiences. A larger-than-life black horse statue takes up space in the living room, complemented by lush green indoor plants, antique lamps, and an antique clock. The house also draws inspiration from South Indian culture, with ventilation and wooden panels that allow just the right amount of privacy while opening up the space to neighbours and guests. A grand dining hall features a large dinner table sitting underneath a chandelier, which throws off warm golden light.

Josh Allen's wife Hailee Steinfeld enjoys LA sunshine in pink bikini ahead of Buffalo Bills' big season
Josh Allen's wife Hailee Steinfeld enjoys solo LA getaway in pink bikini ahead of Bills' season start (X/@archiveshailees and Imagn Images) Hailee Steinfeld is making the most of her summer, soaking in Los Angeles' golden days while her husband, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, is deep in preseason preparations. Just months after their dreamy Southern California wedding in May, followed by a hush-hush Hawaiian honeymoon, the actress is back to her SoCal rhythm, effortlessly balancing glam leisure with long-distance NFL wife duties. Hailee Steinfeld stuns in summer style from LA to Buffalo Following their nuptials, Josh Allen quickly returned to training camp in New York, but Hailee Steinfeld made sure to join him for a low-key Buffalo date night before retreating to her $8 million Encino estate. Since then, she's been spotted reveling in the West Coast's endless summer — first, turning heads in a patriotic USA beach look on the Fourth of July with her signature cocktail in hand, then slipping into a vibrant 'sunkissed' orange bikini. Recently, she's been enjoying what she calls 'perfect eighty-five-degree and sunny days' after recovering from a brief cold. In her latest Beau Society newsletter, Steinfeld revealed her deep love for swimwear. 'As an L.A. girl, I've always had an overflowing swimsuit drawer: One pieces, tops, bottoms, and cover-ups. I'm fascinated by the design process of swimwear, how materials are sourced, and what makes a good suit. A few years ago, I did a limited-edition collection with Frankie's Bikinis, and I still have some of the pieces.' That passion for style was on full display when she recently showcased a striking pink bikini by the pool — proving the 'Queen of Buffalo' is reigning supreme under LA skies. From bikinis to Bills gear: Hailee Steinfeld's season shift While the days of poolside lounging may be numbered, Steinfeld's next wardrobe swap will be all about Bills colors as she gears up to support Allen from the stands. Meanwhile, Allen's energy appears as high as ever — not only is he leading the team through preseason, but he's also making a charismatic appearance on HBO's Hard Knocks. In a playful moment at practice, he even tested teammates with a line from Adam Sandler's Big Daddy. For now, Steinfeld is holding onto every last bit of sunshine, perfectly blending Hollywood glamour with the spirited life of an NFL star's wife.
