From Jahhvi Kapoor to Urvashi Rautela, all the Indian celebrities spotted at Wimbledon 2025

The Hindu17 hours ago
The 2025 edition of Wimbledon saw a notable turnout of Indian celebrities at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, as several public figures from film, fashion, and sport were spotted attending the tournament.
Among the first to draw attention were Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Nick Jonas, who were seen in the Royal Box on Centre Court. The couple, regulars at major global events, were captured watching the semi-finals, drawing notice from media and fans alike. Chopra opted for a muted, tailored look in keeping with the tournament's dress code.
Anushka Sharma and Virat Kohli were also present at the venue, making a rare public appearance together. The couple kept a low profile, watching the matches quietly from the stands. Their visit came as a surprise to many fans, particularly as Sharma has largely stayed away from the spotlight in recent months.
Actor Janhvi Kapoor was spotted alongside her rumoured partner Shikhar Pahariya. Kapoor wore a blue-and-white gingham dress from Miu Miu, a label she has frequently sported since her Cannes appearance earlier this year.
Veteran actor Neena Gupta also made headlines for choosing to wear a saree to Wimbledon, breaking with the event's typically western dress code. She shared images from her visit on social media, including one with her daughter Masaba Gupta outside the Centre Court North East Hall.
Sachin Tendulkar and Anjali Tendulkar were seen applauding key moments from the Royal Box. Tendulkar, who has often spoken about his interest in tennis, appeared relaxed and engaged during the match.
Sonam Kapoor arrived in a white pantsuit, leaning into a business-formal look for the occasion. Preity Zinta, attending with husband Gene Goodenough, opted for a retro polka-dot dress.
Also in attendance were Milind Soman and Ankita Konwar, who made a coordinated appearance in neutral-toned outfits. Meanwhile, Urvashi Rautela drew attention with a white lace gown and a set of four Labubu dolls she carried during the match that generated significant buzz online.

'Ramayana' is now the most expensive Indian film in history: Learn the jaw-dropping budget of Ranbir Kapoor-Yash-starrer

Namit Malhotra , an influential producer and visionary CEO of Prime Focus , is currently steering what could become the most transformative project in Indian film history—a grand, two-part reimagining of Ramayana. With Bollywood star Ranbir Kapoor cast as Lord Ram and a powerful ensemble featuring industry giants like Yash, Amitabh Bachchan, Sai Pallavi, and Sunny Deol, this retelling is poised to push the boundaries of scale, ambition, and technology in Indian cinema . However, what's truly making headlines around the world is its astonishing production cost: an unprecedented $500 million, or roughly Rs 4000 crore—positioning it as the most expensive Indian film ever produced. A Vision Powered by Personal Investment Malhotra's endeavor isn't backed by outside investors or major studios—the producer himself is fully financing the project. In his candid conversation with content creator Prakhar Gupta, he revealed that the idea, once considered outrageous and unrealistic, has evolved into a full-blown mission. When the concept was conceived nearly six to seven years ago, just after the pandemic, many industry insiders doubted the feasibility of such a colossal project. At that time, no Indian film had ever dared to dream this big in terms of budget and scope. Yet, Malhotra remained committed. With experience from supervising visual effects on globally celebrated films such as Inception, Interstellar, and Dune, he brings with him the technical prowess and cinematic wisdom required for an undertaking of this magnitude. In his words, the Ramayana he envisions will rival some of the largest Hollywood franchises—and perhaps, even outshine them in cost-efficiency. For Malhotra, this is not just a film; it's a historic opportunity to put Indian storytelling on a world stage. A Childhood Spark That Ignited a Lifelong Dream The inspiration for this colossal venture dates back to Malhotra's younger years, when he first watched Jurassic Park. The immersive spectacle of that film sparked his fascination with world-building and visual effects, ultimately influencing his career path. Although he never ventured into direction, he built Prime Focus into a global post-production behemoth—a studio that has contributed to multiple Oscar-winning projects. Yet amid his global success, Malhotra always carried a persistent sense of cultural discontent. He observed that Indian films, in the international domain, often portrayed the country in a limited, disadvantaged light. This misrepresentation of India's rich identity became a deep-seated concern for him—one he's addressing through Ramayana. His goal is to showcase India's spiritual depth and mythological richness through a story that has captivated generations and cultures across centuries. A New Dawn Begins Diwali 2026 The first part of this ambitious cinematic saga is scheduled for release during Diwali in 2026. Directed by Nitesh Tiwari—best known for acclaimed hits like Dangal and Chhichhore—the film will blend cutting-edge VFX with emotional depth and mythological grandeur. With this film, Indian cinema could take a decisive leap forward, offering not just commercial entertainment but also a culturally enriching experience tailored for global audiences. If successful, Malhotra's Ramayana could become a defining milestone in how Indian stories are told—and how they are received around the world.
