New parents Sidharth Malhotra, Kiara Advani exit hospital with daughter, head to nanis house
After Kiara got discharged from hospital, the couple headed to the actress's mother's residence to seek blessings for the little one.
Visuals showed Kiara and Sidharth's car entering the building where her mother lives in Mumbai. The couple have however, managed to keep things out of media attention.
Earlier on Thursday, the couple issued a joint statement, urging the media to respect their privacy.
"We're so grateful for all the love and wishes; our hearts are truly full. As we take our first steps into this new journey of parenthood, we hope to enjoy it intimately as a family. It would mean a lot to us if this special time could stay private," the statement read.
Kiara and Sidharth specifically highlighted a "No Photos, Only Blessings" request. The couple even distributed sweets among the media personnel assembled outside the hospital.
On Wednesday, the couple announced the news of their daughter's arrival. The newbie parents wrote, "Our hearts are full and our world forever changed. We are blessed with a Baby Girl." The news sparked a wave of joy among their fans and friends alike.
Several industry people extended their heartfelt wishes for the couple and their daughter.
Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani got married in a grand ceremony in February 2023. Their love story began on the sets of the film 'Shershaah'. In February this year, they announced Kiara's pregnancy, with the actress debuting her baby bump at the Met Gala 2025.
From being lovers to becoming parents, the couple has always kept low about their personal lives. Their recent plea to respect their privacy adds them to the list of many celebrities who have prioritised keeping their children away from media exposure. (ANI)

Ari Asters father advised him to stop screenwriting after Beau is Afraid underperformed at box office
Washington DC [US], July 30 (ANI): The 'Hereditary' director Ari Aster's father advised him to stop screenwriting and focus on direction after his film 'Beau Is Afraid' underperformed at the box office in 2023, reported Variety. During a recent appearance on the 'WTF with Marc Maron' podcast, as quoted by Variety, Aster said his father suggested he stick to directing only after his 2023 film 'Beau Is Afraid' underperformed at the box office. "When 'Beau Is Afraid' flopped, my dad did tell me, 'Uh, maybe you shouldn't write the next one. He might've been right," said Aster as quoted by Variety. Despite the advice, Aster wrote his follow-up feature, 'Eddington,' which is currently in theatres. A24 and Aster are hoping for a win from the small-town dramedy starring Joaquin Phoenix and Pedro Pascal after "Beau" grossed 12 million USD worldwide against a 35 million USD budget. Aster said he was "pretty sad" about the poor critical and commercial reception of "Beau," but added that a few stray messages of support helped him deal with the disappointment. "I was pretty sad that it was, like, so maligned. There are a lot of people who reached out to tell me that they loved helped, but yeah, no, it was a bummer because it was a huge, you know, it lost money, and critically, I wouldn't say it was, like, reviled, but it was definitely, like, there was no consensus whatsoever," said Aster as quoted by Variety. He continued, "All these things you take away after you release a film, and you're like, 'OK, it's out of my hands now, I can't really avoid people's reactions, responses.' It's like, you know, you kind of learn matter what the response, you're proud of for sticking with [your choice], and then certain things where you're like, 'Eh, I'm not sure if it was worth losing that much of the audience for that decision.' I think I ejected a number of people from the theatre. I could've used them." Aster's latest feature is Eddington. It stars Joaquin Phoenix, Pedro Pascal, Luke Grimer, Austin Butler, Emma Stone and others. The film was screened in Cannes, followed by a recent theatrical release. (ANI)

But after watching the magical love song, we can confidently say that the wait was so worth it! Janhvi Kapoor and Sidharth Malhotra in Param Sundari Janhvi Kapoor and Sidharth Malhotra make a beautiful pair. We already saw that in Param Sundari's teaser and behind the scene clips featuring the two actors. But with Pardesiya, they have established themselves as a convincing pair of individuals who are deeply in love in the audiences' eye. The song, helmed by Sonu Nigam, Krishnakali Saha and Sachin-Jigar transports you to a land far far away from reality, where old school romance and charm take over your senses. The song in itself is beautiful, with a lush green picturesque background. But the highlight, like frosting on a delicious cake, is Janhvi and Sidharth's chemistry. Just when you think this can't get any better, the two share an almost-kiss, leaving us with butterflies in our stomach. Much like us, netizens are blown away by Param and Sundari's very 'sundar' chemistry. Under the video, a fan gushed, 'Ngl the song is beautiful, the cinematography is superb and the leads look gorgeous😍 I can't believe I'm saying this but Jhanvi is looking good in the film. As for Sidharth Malhotra, dude's aging like fine wine🔥,' whereas another comment read, 'Ok sonu nigams voice 😘😘 sweet like honey . Atleast the song sounds good and the music video is visually stunning.' Another netizen stated, 'Loving the song, it's on repeat. Sonu is such a gem, listening to him gives me 2000s bollywood nostalgia. Even Sid and Janhvi have good chemistry here. If the good romance song streak continues then I'm sure this too will have a good run in the BO.' How excited are you to watch Sidharth and Janhvi as Param Sundari in theatres on August 29?
