Work-wise, Shraddha Kapoor last starred in Amar Kaushik's directorial Stree 2. The horror-comedy featured her alongside Rajkummar Rao, Pankaj Tripathi, Abhishek Banerjee and Aparshakti Khurana. After its release last year, the film took the box office by storm and emerged as the highest-grossing Hindi film of 2024.
As of now, Shraddha has not officially announced her next project. But rumours are rife that she may be seen in a song in Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR starrer War 2.
Meanwhile, the actress recently talked about the reason why she did only a handful of films in the last few years. In a conversation with Elle, the actress said that she was just following her heart. 'I do what I want to do. I'm not in a rush to sign films back-to-back… Following my heart is what keeps me grounded."

World's most popular TikTok star Khaby Lame leaves the U.S. after being detained by ICE
Khaby Lame, the world's most popular TikTok personality with millions of followers, has left the U.S. after being detained by immigration agents in Las Vegas for allegedly overstaying his visa. The Senegalese-Italian influencer, whose legal name is Seringe Khabane Lame, was detained Friday (June 6, 2025) at Harry Reid International Airport but was allowed to leave the country without a deportation order, a spokesperson for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement confirmed in a statement. Also Read | Trump launches paid self-deportation program to end 'invasion' Mr Lame arrived in the U.S. on April 30 and 'overstayed the terms of his visa,' the ICE spokesperson said. The Associated Press sent a message seeking comment Tuesday (June 10, 2025) to the email address listed on Mr Lame's Instagram account. He has not publicly commented on his detainment. His detainment and voluntary departure from the U.S. comes amid President Donald Trump's escalating crackdown on immigration, including raids in Los Angeles that sparked days of protests against ICE, as the president tests the bounds of his executive authority. A voluntary departure — which was granted to Mr Lame — allows those facing removal from the U.S. to avoid a deportation order on their immigration record, which could prevent them from being allowed back into the U.S. for up to a decade. The 25-year-old rose to international fame during the pandemic without ever saying a word in his videos, which would show him reacting to absurdly complicated 'life hacks.' He has over 162 million followers on TikTok alone. The Senegal-born influencer moved to Italy when he was an infant with his working class parents and has Italian citizenship. His internet fame quickly evolved. He signed a multi-year partnership with designer brand Hugo Boss in 2022. In January, he was appointed as a UNICEF goodwill ambassador. Last month, he attended the Met Gala in New York City, days after arriving in the U.S.

Her most recent Instagram post, which shows private times with her husband, professional golfer Dustin Johnson, has generated a lot of interest. With the U.S. With opening only days away, the mood and timing of these images have fans speculating for more than merely love or fashion. Paulina Gretzky shares cozy moments with Dustin Johnson ahead of Oakmont tournament On the morning of June 9, 2025, Paulina, who is 36, shared a carousel of new images on her Instagram.
