Last Updated: Fatima Sana Shaikh stuns in a sultry photoshoot donning a black bralette and unbuttoned jeans. Bollywood actress Fatima Sana Shaikh has set social media ablaze with her latest photoshoot, where she channels an effortlessly bold and chic vibe. Known for her versatile performances and striking screen presence, Fatima showcased a different side of her personality in these stylish frames, leaving fans mesmerised. Fatima's sultry photoshoot look In the pictures, Fatima is seen sporting a classic black Calvin Klein bralette paired with relaxed-fit, unbuttoned denim jeans.

The minimalist backdrop makes her outfit and poses the focal point, amplifying the raw, sultry energy of the shoot. The casual yet daring styling brings out a balance of boldness and simplicity that reflects Fatima's off-screen personality. Speaking up against stereotypes Alongside her photoshoot buzz, Fatima opened up during her Filmfare interview about how female roles in Bollywood are often stereotyped. After her breakthrough role in Dangal, she revealed being offered several 'empowered" roles, but most carried the cliché of aggressive women who 'hate men." 'When people think of strong women, they think of aggressive women. I don't know why! Just because we know what we want and we voice for equality does not mean we will fight with men, or we want to fight, or we want to smoke a cigarette. The idea is very stereotypical," Fatima explained. She added that empowerment should not always be portrayed through aggression, but through authenticity, intelligence, and individuality.

War 2 Hindi Box Office Day 6: Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR's spy film adds Rs 7 crore on discounted Tuesday, crosses Rs 135 crore mark
War 2, directed by Ayan Mukerji and starring Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR, and Kiara Advani, continues to struggle at the box office. The movie has remained more or less stagnant on Tuesday over its disappointing first Monday, despite discounted ticket prices. War 2 nets Rs 7 crore on Day 6, likely to wrap under Ek Tha Tiger's lifetime earnings Bankrolled by Yash Raj Films, War 2 could add just Rs 7 crore net to the tally on its first Tuesday, following an underwhelming opening weekend of Rs 125 crore and a disappointing Monday of Rs 6.75 crore. The total cume of War 2 now stands at Rs 138.75 crore net at the Indian box office. The spy action drama led by two A-list stars of Hindi and Telugu cinema is expected to wind its extended opening week around Rs 148-150 crore net. The Hrithik-NTR film still has one week for a clean run as Maddock Films' Param Sundari is arriving on August 29 to grab most of the screens. Based on the current trends, the movie is expected to wrap its theatrical run under YRF Spy Universe's pioneer film, Ek Tha Tiger's lifetime earnings. This is a baffling result for such a well-budgeted 2025 movie release. The next film in the spy-verse is Alpha, starring Alia Bhatt, Sharvari, and Bobby Deol. Let's see whether Alpha can bring back the glory of the spy universe to YRF or not. The Day Wise Hindi Net Collection Of War 2 In India Is As Under War 2 in cinemas War 2 is now playing in cinemas. Tickets can be booked from the online web portals or you can grab them from the counter itself. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates.
