When Arti Singh Proved She Is Like Every Other Ranveer Singh Fan
Last Updated: Arti's new post from London featured moments of her enjoying her time at Madame Tussauds, a wax museum in London. Although the calendar says June, Arti Singh's heart is stuck back in wintery London when she and her husband Dipak Chauhan had travelled to the city to celebrate the New Year. That's why on Thursday, June 12, Arti took to her Instagram account and posted a series of pictures that did not make it to the gram during her London trip. The latest post featured images of Arti enjoying her time at Madame Tussauds, a wax museum in London. In the pictures, the 40-year-old actress was seen posing with the wax statues of several Bollywood celebrities, starting with Shah Rukh Khan. Dressed in a black T-shirt over grey trousers layered with a long fur coat, Arti tried to imitate King Khan's exact pose for the camera. She also clicked pictures with the statues of Deepika Padukone, Katrina Kaif, Hrithik Roshan, Amitabh Bachchan, and Sachin Tendulkar. Her carousel featured a surprising video where she was seen doing the hook step of Tune Maari Entriyaan from the film Gunday in front of Ranveer Singh's statue. She also posed gracefully beside the statues of British Royals, including the late Queen Elizabeth II, the late Prince Philip, the late Princess Diana, King Charles III, and Prince William, among others. In one video, Arti was also seen enjoying a virtual snowfall. Sharing the throwback glimpses from her London trip, Arti, in the caption, wrote, 'Missing London and to see our legends at Madame Tussaud's was so inspiring. London, can u please call me back." Her visit also saw her wearing the dancing heels in front of the statue of Ranveer Singh. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Arti singh chauhan (@artisingh5) Back when she was in London with her husband, Arti praised Dipak for always treating her like a 'queen." In a video posted on her Instagram account, the former Bigg Boss contestant showed that her husband took her for a pampering session at a salon, where she got a fresh cut. It also featured glimpses of their London adventures and ended with Arti excitedly unboxing a Louis Vuitton bag. In the caption of the post, Arti wrote, '2024, you fulfilled all my dreams. Thank you guruji for everything. London was one of the best holidays. 2001, 2017, when I went to London it was different. This holiday, my husband made me feel like a queen. I felt somewhere, some wounds also got healed. 2025, please be kind and lovely like 2024. Dipak Chauhan, thank you for balancing so many things."

Rajiv Kapoor couldn't believe it when his father Raj Kapoor offered him Ram Teri Ganga Maili: ‘Are you joking?'
Rajiv Kapoor, the youngest son of legendary filmmaker Raj Kapoor, unfortunately didn't manage to make as big an impact in Indian cinema as his father or his illustrious brothers. Yet, he remains widely remembered and loved for his role in Ram Teri Ganga Maili, a film directed by his father that went on to become a massive blockbuster. In a old interview with Lehren Retro, Rajiv candidly spoke about how surprised he was when his father chose him as the lead actor in the film. He recalled, 'I had only prayed that I get the chance to become Raj Kapoor sahab's assistant. I was his son, of course, but he was also my guru, and I was his student. I got the opportunity when he started Prem Rog and asked me to assist him. That was a big moment for me because I was getting a chance to learn from an absolute legend.' Rajiv Kapoor further revealed that his father had always wanted him to be independent and make a mark on his own. 'He always wanted me to work as an actor for the first time on my own… to do something independently like he had done. He believed, 'Why should I start something for you… you do it yourself.'' Despite this encouragement for independence, Rajiv admitted that during the making of Prem Rog, he became so enamoured by his father's direction that he secretly hoped to act under him someday. Also Read | Rajiv Kapoor was addicted to alcohol, Khushbu Sundar says everyone was very worried for him: 'We spoke a day before his death' 'I prayed to God – I had signed four or five films… but please give me one chance to act in my father's film. At that time, Ram Teri Ganga Maili wasn't even in his mind. Then, around 6–7 months later, one evening he called me and asked, 'Will you work with me?' At first, I didn't understand what he meant. Then he asked, 'What's your date availability? I want you to act in my next film.' I replied, 'Sir, why are you joking… what do you mean work? Just tell me when to start.' And that's what happened – when he asked for my dates, I gave him all of them and cancelled everything else.' Ram Teri Ganga Maili wasn't just a huge commercial success, it became one of the top three highest-grossing films of 1980s Bollywood. It also holds the distinction of being the last movie directed by Raj Kapoor before his passing.
