Adding further to the speculation,
India Today
reported that Hansika has been living with her mother again, a move that sharply contrasts the storyline shown in her wedding series, where she was preparing to move in with Sohael after the marriage. The sudden change in her social media activity, particularly her last post dated July 18, 2025, and the deletion of most posts related to her husband, has only added to the uncertainty surrounding their relationship.
Sohael's Social Media Silence Deepens Doubts
Sohael Khaturiya's social media behavior also seems to mirror the shifting dynamics in their marriage. According to Bollywood Shaadis, he has not only remained inactive online since 2023 but has also recently changed his Instagram account settings to private. While Hansika continues to follow him on the platform, it remains unclear if the sentiment is reciprocated. Sohael's decision to retreat from the public eye amid the growing speculation has only amplified curiosity about the state of their marriage.
Love Story Once Played Out on Screen
Hansika and Sohael's relationship was heavily featured in their six-episode reality series, which captured the emotional journey from their engagement to the grand wedding celebration. Sohael had proposed to Hansika in a dramatic fashion beneath the Eiffel Tower in Paris, a moment that was both cinematic and heartfelt.
Before becoming a couple, the two had known each other through mutual connections. In fact, Sohael had previously been married to Rinky Bajaj, who was reportedly a close friend of Hansika. This connection led to considerable criticism directed at the actress on social media platforms. Many accused her of being the reason behind her friend's broken marriage, turning the tide of public sentiment against her at the time.
Responding to Controversies and Personal Attacks
Hansika had previously addressed these allegations in Hansika's Love Shaadi Drama, expressing how being a public figure made her an easy target for criticism. She had explained that knowing someone in the past doesn't necessarily mean you're responsible for their personal choices or relationships. The emotional toll of being misrepresented in the media was something she openly shared on the show, underlining the personal cost of fame.
"Just because I knew the person at that time doesn't mean it was my fault. I have nothing to do with this. Because I am a public figure, it was very easy for people to point at me and make me the villain. This was a price I pay for being a celebrity," she said.
Long-standing Bonds Now Under Stress
Adding another layer to this complex web of relationships is the bond between Hansika's brother and Sohael. They have reportedly been close friends for years, indicating that the separation—if confirmed—might ripple through a tightly knit family circle, making the situation even more delicate.
Fans Left Waiting as Couple Maintains Silence
As of now, neither Hansika nor Sohael has issued an official statement to address the widespread rumours. Their silence, however, continues to raise more questions than answers. Fans and followers are left speculating about the future of their marriage and wondering if the once-celebrated couple will speak up soon.

Tired of being typecast, National Award-winning NSD actor becomes motivational speaker and comedian: Says, 'I won't return unless...'
Ashish Vidyarthi, renowned for his villainous roles in over 300 films, is strategically pausing his film career to pursue lead roles that showcase his untapped potential. Dissatisfied with being a 'posterless' presence, he's actively seeking central characters while engaging in motivational speaking and comedy.

I won't return unless it's for the kind of amazing central roles I've never had a chance to do before,' he said in his being known for commanding screen presence as a villain or side character, Vidyarthi believes he still has untapped potential as a lead actor . And he's actively pursuing it. 'I keep telling casting directors and producers: Just because I haven't been offered those roles yet doesn't mean I can't do them,' he than waiting passively, the veteran actor took a creative detour. 'I didn't want to just sit at home feeling depressed,' he admitted. 'So, I started motivational speaking — to uplift others, and honestly, to keep myself going too.'This pivot led him to develop Sit Down Ashish , a family-friendly comedy show devoid of crude jokes or innuendo. 'People had suggested I try comedy, so I created an entire set. It's a clean, feel-good show anyone can enjoy — something I'm genuinely proud of,' he his motivational talks and comedy sets, Ashish Vidyarthi is reaching audiences in ways traditional film roles never allowed.

Khushi Kapoor Shares Unseen Pic of Sridevi Ahead of Late Actress' 62nd Birth Anniversary
Khushi Kapoor shared an unseen photo of her late mother Sridevi ahead of her 62nd birth anniversary. The emotional post left fans teary-eyed. Ahead of what would have been Sridevi's 62nd birth anniversary on August 13, her younger daughter Khushi Kapoor took to social media to remember the legendary actress with a heartfelt gesture. Khushi, who made her acting debut with Zoya Akhtar's The Archies, shared an unseen throwback picture of her mother that left fans emotional. The photo, posted on Khushi's Instagram story, shows Sridevi in the late '90s, dressed in a floral pink top and matching pink jeans, flashing her radiant smile with open hair. While Khushi chose not to add any caption, the post itself spoke volumes. Sridevi, often hailed as the first female superstar of Indian cinema, passed away on February 24, 2018, in Dubai due to accidental drowning. Her sudden demise sent shockwaves across the nation. At the time, her elder daughter Janhvi Kapoor was in the middle of shooting her debut film Dhadak, which Sridevi, heartbreakingly, never got to see on the big screen. Following her passing, Sridevi's husband, producer Boney Kapoor, was left devastated. However, in the days that followed, his children from his first marriage — Arjun Kapoor and Anshula Kapoor — stepped up to support Janhvi and Khushi, helping strengthen their bond as a family. Khushi and Janhvi have both kept Sridevi's memory alive by often sharing unseen photos and remembering her at milestones — be it film debuts, birthdays, or anniversaries. On the professional front, Khushi Kapoor is still working to find her footing in Bollywood. After The Archies, she appeared in Nadaaniyan and Loveyapa, though both films failed to impress critics or audiences. She is currently preparing for her next slate of projects, with fans hoping to see her showcase her growth as an actor.

Ganeshotsav Goes Greener
Ahead of Ganeshotsav, Mumbai is witnessing a surge in eco-friendly Ganesha idol-making workshops, attracting both beginners and experienced artists. Participants are learning the art of sculpting with clay, guided by expert instructors who emphasize the meditative and culturally enriching aspects of the process. These workshops blend creativity, tradition, and sustainability, fostering a deeper appreciation for the festival. With Ganeshotsav around the corner, eco-friendly Ganesha idol-making workshops are popping up across Mumbai. From first-timers to seasoned artists, participants are learning to sculpt their own clay idols—embracing creativity, tradition and sustainability in the process. 'Making eco-friendly Ganesh idols is a growing trend' Ritika Jhunjhunwala, who organises multiple workshops in Mumbai, explains the rising popularity of these sessions, 'We do these Ganpati idol making workshops a month before Ganeshotsav. Many people want to create their little idols, and we give them the entire kit at the start of the workshop. Making eco-friendly Ganesha idols is a growing trend, and people love to learn how to sculpt from scratch. The difficulty level at our workshop is based on individual capabilities. Most of the time, anyone can create an idol by following the step-by-step instructions.'

Sandeep Jadhav, one of the expert instructors at one of the workshops, says, 'I have been a clay sculptor for around 25 years. This workshop included complete novices and first-timers who had never worked with clay before. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like If Your Ears Ring, Stop Sleeping Like This Immediately Derila Ergo Undo However, almost all of the participants, including the younger ones, picked it up. Clay is a beautiful medium to create sculptures.' Mukund Jahagirdar, an architect and passionate artist from Andheri, has been conducting workshops for over a decade. Reflecting on his inspiration, the 75-year-old shares, 'I was introduced to it by my mother, who taught using simple kitchen tools like spoons and knives. Since that time, I have tried to make a Ganesh idol every year.' He adds, 'Painting and sculpting are forms of meditation, something I practice and deeply enjoy. This workshop raised my confidence to a new high! I had never taught anyone to make a standing Ganesh in just three hours, especially those who had never touched clay before.' 'These workshops introduce one to the culture and traditions' Dr. Ankita Patil from Colaba, who had never handled clay before, says, 'This year I wanted to make an eco-friendly Ganesh idol and came across Jahagirdar Sir's page on Instagram. I was a bit apprehensive, but this workshop proved all my fears baseless. Sir explained everything.' She adds, 'Making the idol was not just about putting pieces of clay together but understanding body proportions, paying attention to physical details, including posture and cloth drape. The best thing was that this workshop wasn't just about making a Ganapati idol, but it was a beginner's class on the art of sculpting itself. The three-and-a-half-hour workshop was a fulfilling and meditative experience for me.' Siana and Sasha Sadrangani, visiting from New Jersey, were equally impressed. 'It was a great experience, and I think I realized how difficult it is to do this. It's a lot more delicate than I imagined, and it was an amazing experience.' Amrita Wadia from Borivli echoed the sentiment, 'I loved the workshop. Today's workshop made me realise just how difficult it is for artisans to make an idol from scratch. This time when I celebrate Ganeshotsav, I will have a better understanding of what it is all about. ' Vibhuti Dilip Prerana Sathe, a returning participant, at Iteeha, shared, 'Earlier I had learnt this online, but doing this live was great. Honestly, sculpting Ganu is one of my absolute favourite things to do! I love shaping his belly (always filled with modaks!), those cute cheeks, the tiny modak in his hand, and everything about him. Sir shared the soul of idol-making and taught how to bring your sculpture to life. ' Artistically inclined Pooja Bhagiya said, 'I had done a Madhubani course from Iteeha earlier, and that's how I came to know about this workshop. These kinds of workshops, I feel, really introduce one to the culture and traditions.' Nidhi Shroff added, 'This is the second time I attended Sir's workshop. He is incredibly organized, provided all materials, and patiently guided me to sculpt a beautiful idol. He has a unique way of helping each participant make a stunning idol with ease,' says Nidhi Shroff. Radhika Mittal from Kharghar, a DIY enthusiast, added, 'I love craft and anything DIY. I love making things by hand, and nothing can get better than this – creating an eco-friendly Ganesha idol from scratch with your bare hands, some clay, and basic tools. I love the feel of it.' Mahima from Kandivli, a visual designer, shares, 'I have always been interested in art and am into Indian folk art, and this is the first time I did a workshop using clay to create an idol. This workshop was about blending faith, creativity, and sustainability in a meaningful way.' Stay updated with the latest local news from your city on Times of India (TOI).
