Raj Kundra offers his kidney to Premanand Maharaj. But was it for publicity?

Synopsis Businessman Raj Kundra drew both praise and criticism after a video from his visit to Vrindavan showed him offering a kidney to spiritual leader Premanand Maharaj, who has been battling kidney failure for over a decade. While some lauded the gesture, others called it a publicity stunt, prompting Kundra to defend himself on social media, urging people to 'judge less, love more' and stressing that his past should not overshadow his present choices. Raj Kundra Responds to PR Stunt Claims Over Kidney Offer to Premanand Maharaj Businessman Raj Kundra, husband of Bollywood actor Shilpa Shetty, recently became the subject of intense online debate after a video from the couple's visit to Vrindavan surfaced. The footage captured Kundra offering one of his kidneys to spiritual leader Premanand Maharaj, who revealed during their interaction that both his kidneys had failed and that he had been living with the condition for more than a unexpected gesture visibly surprised Shilpa Shetty, whose reaction in the video drew as much attention as the offer itself. Although Maharaj expressed gratitude for the sentiment, he politely declined Kundra's offer. What some saw as an act of selflessness quickly became the target of skepticism online, with several social media users dismissing it as a 'PR stunt' due to Kundra's past controversies. The businessman addressed the criticism through posts on Instagram and X (formerly Twitter), stating that it was 'strange' to see a life-saving gesture mocked as a publicity wrote that if compassion is considered a stunt, then the world could benefit from more of it, and if humanity is viewed as a strategy, it should be widely adopted. Kundra further noted that he does not allow the media or trolls to define him through labels. In another part of his statement, he remarked that his past does not negate his present choices, and that people should 'judge less, love more' as it might help save controversy comes at a time when Kundra and Shetty are also facing serious legal allegations. As per median reports, businessman Deepak Kothari has accused the couple of defrauding him of Rs 60 crore between 2015 and 2023. He claimed the funds, provided for business expansion, were allegedly used for personal Economic Offences Wing (EOW) is currently investigating the case. Advocate Prashant Patil, representing Kundra and Shetty, has publicly denied the accusations, calling them baseless and malicious.

Top 10 Highest Kollywood Opening Day In Andhra States: Rajinikanth and Lokesh Kanagaraj's Coolie takes 2nd biggest start despite clash with War 2

Coolie, directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, and starring Rajinikanth, took the second biggest opening among Tamil releases in Andhra states. It grossed Rs 17.75 crore and is just under Rajinikanth's own 2.0. The difference here is that Coolie managed Rs 17.75 crore, despite locking horns with War 2, featuring the Tollywood superstar Jr NTR. If not for the clash, the movie could have hit Rs 30 crore. A Rs 30 crore start would mean a new Kollywood record, and that too by a margin of an absurd 65-70 percent. Coolie Takes 2nd Biggest Kollywood Opening In Andhra States; Would Have Topped List With Solo Release Rajinikanth has a total of 5 movies in the list of top 10 highest opening Kollywood movies in Andhra states, and that's the highest for any actor. Apart from 2.0 and Coolie that occupy the top 2 spots, Kabali, Jailer and Darbar also make the cut. Audiences in the Andhra states have always treated Rajinikanth as their own star. For Coolie to give War 2 a run for its money in Andhra states speaks volumes. Infact, Coolie's day 2 is likely higher than War 2. Other movies part of the list are Thalapathy Vijay's Leo, Master and Beast, Vikram's I and Kamal Haasan's Indian 2. To note, S Shankar is the biggest Kollywood director in Andhra states. He has 3 films in the list, and then there are also other blockbuster films of his that were earlier part of this list. Lokesh is also catching up to S Shankar's greatness in the twin states, with Coolie becoming his third film to enter the list after Leo and Master. The Top Opening Kollywood Movies In Andhra States Are As Under Coolie In Theatres Coolie plays in theatres now. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates.

Bollywood's richest star kid? From Rs 100 crore sea-facing mansion to Rs 3,100 crore empire, this celeb's net worth will leave you stunned

In Bollywood, being a star kid might open doors, but sustaining superstardom, and amassing unimaginable wealth, demands relentless drive, versatility, and business acumen. Hrithik Roshan, who captured the nation's heart with his sensational debut in Kaho Naa… Pyaar Hai, has gone far beyond being just another celebrity offspring. At 50, the War 2 star stands tall with an estimated fortune of Rs 3,100 crore, making him the richest star kid in the industry. Independence Day 2025 Modi signals new push for tech independence with local chips Before Trump, British used tariffs to kill Indian textile Bank of Azad Hind: When Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose gave India its own currency And according to GQ India, the crown jewel in Hrithik's financial empire isn't just his blockbuster films, it's his sportswear and lifestyle brand, HRX, which has redefined the concept of celebrity-led businesses in India. The HRX Phenomenon Launched in 2013, HRX has grown into a powerhouse, reportedly valued at around Rs 7,300 crore. More than just a brand, HRX has built a loyal community by championing fitness, authenticity, and aspirational living. This success story has transformed Hrithik from a film star into a business mogul, and set a precedent for how Indian celebrities can expand their influence beyond the silver screen. Box Office Brilliance & Brand Power While HRX dominates his business portfolio, Hrithik's acting career continues to be a major revenue stream. His fee per film commands attention: Rs 85 crore for Fighter and a projected Rs 48– Rs 80 crore for War 2, in which he stars alongside Jr NTR and Kiara Advani. He's also tipped to make his directorial debut with Krrish 4, which is already generating industry buzz. Off-screen, Hrithik's influence extends to high-profile endorsement deals, capitalising on his 47 million-strong Instagram following to secure partnerships with leading brands. Live Events Luxury Homes & Smart Investments Hrithik's wealth isn't just liquid, it's also built on astute real estate investments. His sea-facing Juhu residence, worth approximately Rs 100 crore, offers panoramic views of Mumbai's coastline, while his Rs 33 crore farmhouse in Lonavala serves as a peaceful weekend escape. These properties not only reflect his taste for luxury but also act as appreciating assets in India's booming property market. Despite his entrepreneurial triumphs, Hrithik remains, at heart, a leading man. Fresh from Fighter, his much-anticipated War 2 has hit cinemas to strong reviews, cementing his position as one of Bollywood's most bankable stars. Inputs from TOI
