Deepika Padukone's Hilarious Meme About Ranveer Singh Wins The Internet
Last Updated: Deepika Padukone shares a viral meme poking fun at Ranveer Singh, leaving fans in splits. The couple recently welcomed their baby girl, Dua. Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh continue to be one of Bollywood's most adored power couples—both for their style and their undeniable chemistry. While they often keep the deeper aspects of their relationship under wraps, the duo occasionally treats fans to glimpses of their playful banter, which never fails to charm the internet. In a recent example of her signature wit, Deepika shared a meme on her Instagram Stories that instantly resonated with fans. The post read: 'Me calling my husband to get his thoughts on something I've already made up my mind about, but I want him to feel included in the decision in case it goes awry." It didn't take long for the meme to go viral. The tongue-in-cheek joke—relatable to many couples—had fans laughing out loud and applauding Deepika's humorous take on married life. Several social media users lauded her for keeping things light and real, especially now that she and Ranveer have entered a new phase of life: parenthood. The beloved couple welcomed their daughter, Dua Padukone Singh, in early September. They shared the joyful news with an emotional Instagram post that included a close-up photo of Dua's tiny feet and a heartwarming caption: ''Dua' — signifying a prayer.

Saiyaara Crosses Rs 100 Cr In 4 Days, But THIS Vicky Kaushal Film Hit Century In 3 Days In 2025
Last Updated: Directed by Mohit Suri and starring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, Saiyaara collected an estimated Rs 22.50 crore on Day 4. There's no stopping Saiyaara. Even on Monday which is typically a slow day for most releases, the film continued its impressive run at the box office. Directed by Mohit Suri and starring newcomers Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, Saiyaara collected an estimated Rs 22.50 crore on Day 4. This brings its total to Rs 106 crore in just four days, according to The romantic drama released on July 18 and got off to a phenomenal start, collecting Rs 25 crore (approx. $2.9 million) on its opening day in India. According to YRF, nearly 9.75 lakh people flocked to theatres on Day 1, making it the biggest opening day ever for a Hindi film led entirely by debutants. It beat the previous record set by Dhadak, which opened at Rs 8.76 crore in 2018. What makes Saiyaara's feat even more notable is that only one other Hindi film in 2025 has managed to hit the Rs 100 crore mark faster, Chhaava, starring Vicky Kaushal. The period drama, directed by Laxman Utekar, has been one of the biggest success stories of the year. It earned a staggering Rs 49.03 crore on Sunday alone, closing its opening weekend with Rs 121.43 crore in India. While Chhaava and Saiyaara differ vastly in genre and scale, one being a historical epic, the other a contemporary love story, both have made history in their own right. Importantly, Saiyaara's success stands tall on its own merit. It not only marks a breakout moment for Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda, but also sets a new benchmark for romantic films at the box office. It outperformed recent romantic hits like Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani (Rs 11.1 crore), Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya (Rs 6.7 crore), Tu Jhoothi Main Makkar (Rs 15.73 crore), and Kabir Singh (Rs 20.21 crore) in terms of opening day numbers. The buzz around Saiyaara was strong even before release, with advance bookings crossing Rs 9.39 crore and over 3.8 lakh tickets sold. Trade analyst Taran Adarsh had reported that 1.38 lakh tickets were booked across national chains like PVR INOX and Cinepolis—a record for a debut film in recent memory. With its soaring numbers, stellar word-of-mouth and sold-out shows across metros, Saiyaara is proving to be a cultural and commercial phenomenon. While Chhaava continues to dominate as the highest grosser of 2025, Saiyaara has earned its place in the spotlight, representing a strong, refreshing wave of new talent and storytelling in Bollywood.
