The couple's industry friends congratulated them on the happy news. Rakul Preet Singh wrote, 'Omgggg congratulations.' Allu Arjun's wife, Allu Sneha Reddy, also extended her wishes. Sreenivas Bellamkonda commented, 'Hearty congratulations, brother,' and Aditi Rao Hydari sent a big hug to the soon-to-be parents. Fans also flooded the comments section with congratulatory messages.
Varun and Lavanya dated for a brief period before tying the knot in November 2023. The couple married according to Hindu customs in a ceremony held at Borgo San Felice in Tuscany, Italy. Their wedding was a grand affair. For the unversed, Varun is the nephew of veteran actors Chiranjeevi and Pawan Kalyan. Actors Ram Charan, Allu Arjun, Allu Sirish, Sai Tej, and Panja Vaisshnav Tej are his cousins — all of whom attended the wedding in Italy. Several photos and videos from the celebrations surfaced online, melting fans' hearts.
Varun was last seen in Matka, a period action thriller written and directed by Karuna Kumar. The film, which also featured Meenakshi Chaudhary and Nora Fatehi in lead roles, opened to negative reviews from both audiences and critics, with particular criticism for its narration and dull screenplay. It failed to perform well at the box office. He is yet to announce his next project. On the other hand, Lavanya will next be seen in Sathi Leelavathi. M. Naga Mohan Babu and T. Rajesh are jointly bankrolling the project under Durga Devi Pictures and Trio Studios. More details about the film are still awaited.

‘Paris is scam': Indian traveller slams ‘impossible-to-chew bread' and ‘disaster dessert' at her ‘most expensive' Eiffel Tower lunch
Ishwarya, an Indian traveller and one half of the United Kingdom-based Tamil travel vlogging duo 'Make Travel Easy,' left Paris with more than just photos of the Eiffel Tower –– she also carried home a story about a pricey lunch gone wrong. In a candid Instagram post, Ishwarya called it her the 'most expensive' meal in the City of Light, yet one that failed to impress. The bread, she said, was so hard it was nearly impossible to chew, and the starter arrived cold. Her experience wasn't unique, an elderly woman from New Zealand, seated beside her at the Eiffel Tower's second-floor restaurant, voiced the same complaints. A post shared by Make Travel Easy (@_maketraveleasy) When Ishwarya asked the server if they had softer bread, the answer was a flat no. She rated the starter just 2/10, gave the main dish a more forgiving 7/10, and declared the dessert, which she found overly creamy, a disaster at 1/10. 'I will never go here again,' she wrote. A post shared by Make Travel Easy (@_maketraveleasy) In her YouTube video, Ishwarya revealed that her day took an unexpected turn when she ended up helping the New Zealand woman, who struggled to eat, reach a supermarket for biscuits and then walk her back to her hotel. The review sparked debate online. Some commenters felt she simply didn't understand European dining culture. 'European breads are supposed to be hard… there are so many different types of breads,' one person pointed out. Another wrote, 'It must be your first time to eat in Europe. That's a normal bread for Europeans.' Others sided with her frustration. 'Paris is a scam,' wrote one. Another was even harsher: 'French food is actually pretty bad. We've been starving out in New Caledonia. No vege, limited fruit. Rubbish food.'
