He walked in, turned heads and made a statement the world couldn't ignore. Yes, we are talking about Punjabi singing sensation Diljit Dosanjh, who is creating waves with his jaw-dropping Met Gala 2025 debut. The singer-actor made his much-anticipated entry at fashion's biggest night in an outfit that was not just stylish but full of meaning. Dressed in a royal look, Diljit paid tribute to Patiala's Maharaja Bhupinder Singh. The traditional outfit, designed by Nepalese-American designer Prabal Gurung, featured many stunning details that included a cape with Punjabi words embroidered on it, a sleek silhouette and fine jewels. It wasn't just a fashion choice, it was a bold and proud representation of his roots on one of the biggest international stages.
As soon as Diljit posted pictures from the event on his Instagram, fans flooded his comments with love, pride and admiration. His caption read, 'Main hoon Punjab. Inspired by the theme of Black Dandyism, I bring my turban, my culture, and my mother tongue Punjabi to the Met Gala."

Among the many who shared their excitement was actress Shehnaaz Gill, who commented, 'Feeling proud," clearly moved by the way Diljit carried his culture.
While Shehnaaz showed her admiration for Diljit's Met Gala look, the singer has also spoken highly of her in the past. During an Instagram live session, the singer couldn't stop praising his Honsla Rakh co-star for how far she has come in her journey.
Speaking to Shehnaaz's mother, Diljit said, 'Your daughter is very shy but I am very proud of her. Shehnaaz has truly worked very hard. Where did she start from, and now the whole world knows her name. Everyone is so proud of her. Especially for women, it is very hard for them to make it in this field, and all fields generally. The atmosphere in most industries is not feasible for their growth. It's easier for men comparatively."
On the work front, Diljit has wrapped up the UK schedule for his much-anticipated drama, Sardaar Ji 3, which is directed by Amar Hundal. The movie also features Gulshan Grover, Manav Vij, Nasir Chinyoti, Monica Sharma and Saleem Albela, among others.
The singer also has Punjab 95 in the works, a film believed to be based on the life of human rights activist Jaswant Singh Khalra, who was the director of a bank in Amritsar during the militancy period in Punjab. Moreover, he is shooting for Border 2, directed by Anurag Singh, alongside Sunny Deol, Varun Dhawan and Ahan Shetty.
Meanwhile, Shehnaaz is gearing up for her next project, Ikk Kudi, which will hit theatres on June 13. The Punjabi-language movie is a joint venture by Kaushal Joshi's Raaya Picturez, Shehnaaz Gill Production and Amarjit Singh Saron's Amor Film Presents. The film is written and directed by Amarjit Singh Saron. She will also be seen in Sab First Class, directed by Balwinder Singh Janjua, alongside Varun Sharma.

Elizabeth Hurley celebrates 60th birthday naked and ‘in love' with Billy Ray Cyrus: ‘It's been a wild ride'
Elizabeth Hurley is celebrating her 60th birthday while gushing about being in love and feeling blessed for having friends and family to look after her. To mark her big day, the actor shared a bold photo on Instagram, posing nude in a field while using her posture to keep the image tasteful and elegant. In the caption, she wrote how wild this year has been for her, celebrating 30 years of working with Estée Lauder, 20 years of her swimwear brand, and most importantly, announcing she's in love with Billy Ray Cyrus. The duo went Instagram official on April 20, 2025. While the exact timeline of their relationship is unknown, it is being said that they fell in love while filming Christmas in Paradise in 2022. 'Happy birthday to me! This year has already been a wild ride; my 30th year of working with the Estée Lauder Companies, my 30th year as the Global Ambassador of the @esteelaudercompanies Breast Cancer Campaign, the 20th,' The Bedazzled star wrote alongside the picture. 'I'm in love. Feeling very blessed and grateful for having the best friends & family in the world. Pic taken this afternoon… in my birthday suit,' she added, loading the caption with a bunch of red hearts. Also read: Elizabeth Hurley, once married to Indian tycoon Arun Nayar, confirms romance with Billy Ray Cyrus in Easter kiss snap The actor's son Damian Hurley dropped a comment: 'Hahahah I LOVE YOU, happy birthday mama xxx,' followed by celebrities like Heidi Klum, who wrote, 'Congratulations beautiful smart funny Elizabeth, Wishing you the best birthday. Love you.' The country singer also celebrated Hurley's big day, posting a separate Instagram picture with her and calling her the 'love of my life' in his birthday message. A post shared by Elizabeth Hurley (@elizabethhurley1) Elizabeth, who first visited Billy Ray's estate in Nashville during Easter celebrations, quietly soft-launched their romance through social media posts filled with PDA moments like country walks and off-road rides, without fully spilling the beans. While Hurley's son has now publicly shown support, Cyrus's daughter Miley recently also opened up about her bond with him amid reports of their feud. She had cut ties with him back in 2023 after his divorce from her mother, Tish. Miley now wishes happiness for both, saying in a recent interview, 'At first it's hard, because the little kid in you reacts before the adult in you can go, 'Yes, that's your dad, but that's just another person that deserves to be in his bliss and to be happy.'' Also read: Elizabeth Hurley wants a 'funny' boyfriend According to reports, Elizabeth had first reached out to Billy Ray via text when he was going through his messy divorce from Firerose, his third wife. They started chatting more often and came close. Now, Billy Ray is hoping this new chapter will also help him fix things with his kids. His split from Miley's mom, Tish, back in 2022 after nearly 30 years of marriage had caused serious tensions in the family. However, recently, a source who spoke to the Daily Mail revealed, 'Billy Ray met Elizabeth in 2022 on the set of their Christmas film, which they both starred in. Tish had her thoughts and suspicions at the time that he was cheating on her with Liz, but Billy Ray flat-out denied it.' The insider called their relationship, 'a slap in the face.' Sources say Billy Ray is now trying to spend more time with his kids. He's even willing to apologise to Tish's current husband, actor Dominic Purcell, just for the sake of peace between the two families. Despite all the past drama, insiders say Billy Ray feels lucky to have found Elizabeth. In a recent interview with Apple Music Country's The Ty Bentli Show, the country singer opened up about meeting Hurley on the filming set and said, 'We did very few scenes together, but the couple times we were in the same scene there was a chemistry. We just laughed and it was at a time I wasn't laughing a lot, and I found it the oddest thing.'

"I've got the window open but (while driving) he was getting confused by the windshield, so I might have to grab him to get him out. But he retreated for now so its up to him to leave.

'You don't know who we are…,' Shilpa Shetty and husband Raj Kundra gets into a heated argument with..., watch viral video
Shilpa Shetty is presently in Croatia celebrating a birthday with her spouse Raj Kundra, sister Shamita Shetty, and several close family and friends. A young Instagram user recently shared a video on the platform asserting that Shilpa and her family were in a dispute with a 'young foreigner' who expressed concerns about their group being excessively loud. What Happened In Croatia? Posting a video featuring a group in white clothing, the young Instagrammer claimed, 'This event took place today (9.06.2025) on Hvar Island, Croatia.' A foreigner was having her meal while they ( Shilpa Shetty and crew ) were talking loudly. The foreign girl requested that they reduce their noise level; nonetheless, Raj Kundra answered, 'You have no idea who we are.' I wasn't able to capture that line in the video as it happened too abruptly. He asserted, 'You can distinctly hear Shilpa Shetty and her family nearby, as well as Shilpa Shetty and her team stating, 'Don't speak to us, we don't wish to listen to you.'' The foreign girl merely wished to savor her meal and kindly asked them to lower their voices. Kindly share your thoughts regarding this event. Is this attitude of arrogance from our celebrities abroad warranted or not? 'Do these incidents tarnish the image of Indians and our standing internationally or not?' Raj Kundra Spills The Beans On Entire Incident After this incident, Raj Kundra gave an interview to Hindustan Times in which he cleared everything about this incident. He stated, 'I want to explain the circumstances surrounding the video that is being shared online.' I reserved this specific restaurant a year ahead to commemorate my wife's birthday. Regrettably, when we arrived, we learned that our table had been reassigned to another party because of what they described as a 'double booking' mistake by the same agent,' he shared in a text message to us. Raj added, 'Having operated restaurants myself, I found the management of the situation incredibly frustrating, particularly with my elderly parents, mother-in-law, and 20 guests left in limbo.' What was intended to be a memorable night became needlessly stressful, and when we expressed our concerns, we were abruptly instructed to be silent, which only increased our frustration. He ended by stating, 'After a year of planning, the absence of accountability or even minimal courtesy from the restaurant management was profoundly discouraging. I trust this clarifies the situation.
