Both Kareena and Saif have been Karsima's pillars of strength, especially after the passing away of the actress's ex-husband Sanjay Kapur on June 12. He died in England after having a heart attack during a polo tournament. According to sources, the incident occurred when he accidentally swallowed a bee during a game, causing a severe allergic response that ended fatal despite immediate medical assistance.

Internet Praises Couple in China For Getting Married At Dog Shelter
A couple in China won the internet by tying the knot in a dog shelter. The wedding ceremony was completed in the presence of 200 rescued dogs and over 300 volunteers. The 31-year-old Yang hails from Tianjin City in northern China and operates the dog shelter, the South China Morning Post (SCMP) reported. The report mentioned that the man was once a rich construction boss with assets exceeding US$1.4 million. But the pandemic changed everything. As per the report, his business suffered huge losses because of the lockdown, forcing him to sell almost all of his possessions, including his house and two cars, in order to pay his debts and employees. Later, he became passionate about dog rescue and dedicated his life to making sure the furry friends receive all the love and care they deserve. The report also mentioned that he had lost five puppies to illness during his childhood, a heartbreak that played an important role in his decision. He also spoke to people for support and started to recruit volunteers. "I had only 23 yuan left in my pocket at that time. That was the entirety of the shelter's funds," Yang said as quoted. Zhao, the bride, joined the shelter as a volunteer in 2022. She was a university student at that time. She showed compassion for the dogs and even donated her entire part-time earnings to buy dog food. They started working together and grew closer. Their love blossomed, and they decided to get married.

Shweta Bachchan's Mother-In-Law Helped Karisma Kapoor Get Over Abhishek Bachchan Breakup
Shweta Bachchan is married to Karisma Kapoor's cousin, and is thus related to the Kapoors. Karisma Kapoor and Abhishek Bachchan were all set to tie the knot after dating for 5 years. However, their engagement ended soon after Jaya Bachchan publicly announced it. While the real reason behind the breakup is best known to the Kapoors and the Bachchans, Karisma once opened up about the 'trauma" she experienced from the split. Karisma Kapoor told Subhash K Jha in an old interview that the breakup was a traumatic event in her life. She added, 'I want to thank the media for being so understanding and supportive. Everyone left me alone. I don't want to say anything more on this except that I couldn't have come out my trauma if it wasn't for my parents [Babita and Randhir Kapoor], sister [Kareena], my Dadiji [Krishna Raj Kapoor], my two Buas [Rima Jain and Ritu Nanda] and my close friends." Interestingly, Karisma's aunt, Ritu Nanda, has a familial relationship with the Bachchans. Ritu's son, Nikhil Nanda, is married to Shweta Bachchan. Shweta is Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan's daughter. As such, the Kapoors and the Bachchans are related. Shweta and her kids, Navya Naveli Nanda and Agastya Nanda, are often spotted at the Kapoors' family events. But, how are relations between Shweta and Karisma, given the history with Abhishek? As per reports, Shweta Bachchan is fond of Karisma Kapoor and helped break the ice between her and the Bachchans years after their breakup. In 2018, Shweta Bachchan launched her clothing line with a star-studded party. Karisma Kapoor also made an appearance at the event. Reports claim that Shweta and Karisma seemed to get along well. A source told Deccan Chronicle, 'There was a sincere affection between them. For years, no member of the Bachchan family spoke to Karisma. Now, Shweta has broken the ice, and rightly so. You can't hold grudges forever." Meanwhile, before this, in 2003, Karisma married Delhi-based industrialist Sunjay Kapur. They had two kids together. But their union quickly unravelled, eventually leading to a highly public and bitter divorce battle in 2014. While the couple initially filed for divorce through mutual consent, the case escalated into an ugly legal fight filled with serious allegations. Meanwhile, Abhishek Bachchan tied the knot with Aishwarya Rai in 2007. They welcomed their daughter, Aaradhya Bachchan, in 2011. First Published:

VIDEO: MS Dhoni refuses to eat birthday cake at his friend's house for THIS reason and stands quietly at the back
When a phone-camera video from a modest Ranchi living room surfaced on June 22, it rocketed across social media within hours. The clip captured Mahendra Singh Dhoni, one of the more private sporting icon in India, quietly attending long-time friend and tennis coach Surender Kumar's birthday gathering. Standing at the back while guests belted out the lyrics to 'Happy Birthday,' Dhoni blended into the chorus until the cake advanced in his direction. MS Dhoni: 'Feed Kaki first' The video was shared on the Instagram page of the cricketer's friend, Surender Kumar (a.k.a. ' Kaka '). In it, the host attempts to feed the second slice of cake to Dhoni, who quickly grinned and rejected the piece as he pointed to the host's wife. He then quipped in Hindi, 'Feed your wife first; you live here, I'll be gone soon..' The room immediately cracked up. The light joke doubled as etiquette advice, and Dhoni slipped back into the crowd. After being fed a piece by 'Kaki,' he once again offers a piece to Dhoni. However, Dhoni quickly stopped him, suggesting the children be fed instead. Only after the two youngsters were served did he finally accept a bite. The exchange lasted under a minute, yet users labelled it 'classic MSD,' praising the 43-year-old's restraint and social awareness. Viral numbers and genuine tears Kumar had posted the reel with the caption 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAKA SIR. THANK YOU SO MUCH MAHI SIR' with a cake emoji and hearts. The video quickly garnered attention, and amassed over 14,000 likes. A later video of events from the same day depicted Dhoni feeding Kumar as well. Within 48 hours the upload had drawn more than 600,000 views and 60,000 likes. As fans spotted Kumar wiping his eyes as Dhoni offered him cake, they realized just how personal the visit was. Replies ranged from 'Luckiest man alive' to 'That's why we love him… simplicity and down to earth….my captain!' Dhoni's pattern of private gestures The Free Press Journal notes this is as the second consecutive year Dhoni has turned up for the same friend's celebration, slipping in without PR staff or photographers. Away from public stadiums, the former India captain routinely shuns big parties. When he does venture out, he leaves with minimal fuss, drivers idling no longer than necessary. The birthday detour came a month after Chennai Super Kings' forgettable IPL campaign, where Dhoni collected 196 runs at 24.50 and CSK finished last. Results, however, have little effect on his aura. Fresh off his ICC Hall of Fame induction, Dhoni's real legacy seems to be the ease with which he trades global stardom for small-town courtesy. He proves yet again that charisma can look a lot like good manners.
