Bigg Boss fame Edin Rose's bold love confession for Shreyas Iyer sets internet ablaze: 'I am already married to him in my mind'
In an era of filtered feelings and scripted romances, Bigg Boss 18 sensation Edin Rose has boldly stepped into the spotlight with a confession that's as heartfelt as it is headline-grabbing. The Dubai-born actress, known for her fiery persona and unapologetic honesty, recently declared her deep admiration—and imaginary nuptials—with none other than Indian cricket heartthrob, Shreyas Iyer . Yes, you read that right. In a candid interview with Filmygyan, Edin didn't just admit to crushing on the cricketer. She went several steps further, revealing that in her heart, she is already Mrs. Iyer and considers herself the mother of his future children. "He Inspires Me Every Day": When Cricket Meets Admiration 'I believe I'm the mother of his kids. In my mind, I'm already married to him,' Edin proclaimed during the interview. While most celebrity crushes stay hidden behind coy smiles and vague innuendos, Edin's confession was anything but subtle. It came with a glowing explanation of what makes Shreyas so desirable in her eyes—his humility, dedication to the game, and grounded personality. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Gạch cao su mới không cần lắp đặt cầu kỳ (tìm gạch tại đây) Gạch | Quảng cáo tìm kiếm Tìm Ngay Undo 'He inspires me every day. It's his humility, his focus, and the way he carries himself — those are the things I find truly admirable,' she added, her admiration firmly rooted not just in looks, but in the person behind the jersey. View this post on Instagram A post shared by F I L M Y G Y A N (@filmygyan) Choosing Her Cricket King in a Game of Love The interview took an entertaining turn with a 'Marry, Hookup, Date' segment. Edin chose to 'marry' Shreyas Iyer, 'hookup' with Shubman Gill, and 'date' Hardik Pandya. But the spotlight never shifted far from Shreyas. The actress recalled how even before her Bigg Boss stint, people close to her knew of her deep admiration for the cricketer. You Might Also Like: Feeling bad after selling a stock too early? Even Shah Rukh Khan let go of his 'multibagger' Shreyas Iyer, quips fund manager Interestingly, she also clarified that a past headline suggesting she was dating Shreyas was entirely false, though it stirred curiosity at the time. For Edin, Shreyas stands out for all the right reasons—tall, dark, bearded, muscular, and a true ambassador of Indian pride on the field. From Sarees in Dubai to Stardom in Mumbai Born on August 20, 1998, Edin Rose's journey is as fascinating as her screen presence. With roots in Burma and Karnataka, and a childhood spent in Dubai, her dreams were anything but ordinary. As a young girl, she would drape her mother's saree, perform in front of the television, and mimic South Indian film stars, determined to one day become one herself. At the age of 20, she moved to Mumbai with stars in her eyes and soon made her debut in the bold web series Gandii Baat as Vasudha. She went on to feature in Cineprime's Good Girls – Brides Night , and the short film Help Me . Her big break in Telugu cinema came through a chance meeting with actor-producer Ravi Teja. Without even auditioning, she landed a special dance number in Ravanasura —a testament to her screen presence and growing appeal. While it remains to be seen if Shreyas Iyer will respond to this larger-than-life love proclamation, one thing is clear—Edin Rose is unafraid of wearing her heart on her sleeve.

Who is Sydney Sweeney, the Emmy nominated actress whose bathwater soap sold out in seconds?
Hollywood star Sydney Sweeney stirred the internet by releasing a soap—infused with her actual bathwater—which sold out in seconds. The limited-edition "Sydney's Bathwater Bliss," launched with Dr. Squatch, became a viral sensation, blending celebrity appeal with quirky marketing. (Screenshots: Instagram/sydney_sweeney) In the ever-surreal world of celebrity branding, few stunts have managed to scrub the line between fame and frenzy quite like Sydney Sweeney's latest headline-grabber. The Emmy-nominated star of Euphoria and The White Lotus —known for her raw talent, shapeshifting roles, and unapologetic persona—has now become the talk of the internet for something completely unexpected: bathwater-infused soap. Yes, you read that right. On June 6, 2025, a limited-edition soap bar titled Sydney's Bathwater Bliss went on sale in collaboration with men's grooming brand Dr. Squatch—and it sold out in literal seconds. Only 5,000 bars were made, and the demand crashed the website, overwhelmed waitlists, and sparked a resale frenzy on eBay, where bars are now listed for prices north of $1,000. But behind the bubbles is a story of how Sweeney—once just another promising young actress—has reinvented herself into one of Hollywood's most bankable and bold stars. Born in Spokane, Washington, Sydney Bernice Sweeney began her career humbly, appearing in TV guest spots on shows like 90210 , Criminal Minds , and Grey's Anatomy . Her breakout came in 2018, with a dual splash—playing the quirky Emaline in Netflix's Everything Sucks! and the haunting Alice in HBO's Sharp Objects . Soon after, she appeared in The Handmaid's Tale , followed by a small but notable role in Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon a Time in Hollywood . But it was her portrayal of Cassie Howard in HBO's Euphoria that transformed Sweeney into a pop culture force. With a role that demanded vulnerability, complexity, and courage (not to mention intense media attention due to its nudity and raw emotional arcs), Sweeney emerged as a Gen Z icon. Her performance earned her an Emmy nomination, and her turn as a sardonic college student in The White Lotus only cemented her acting credentials. From that point on, Sydney Sweeney was no longer a rising star—she was a household name. Fast-forward to summer 2025, and Sweeney's name is once again on everyone's lips—but this time, it's her bathwater that's making waves. Following a cheeky 2024 ad for Dr. Squatch in which Sweeney was shown soaking in a tub, fans began flooding the internet with one strange request: they wanted her bathwater. Rather than dismiss the absurdity, Sweeney leaned into the joke. 'You kept asking about my bathwater,' she posted on Instagram. 'So we kept it.' Enter Sydney's Bathwater Bliss , a bar soap made with a 'touch of Sydney's actual bathwater,' blended with pine bark extract, exfoliating sand, and aromatic notes of Douglas fir and moss. Described as 'medium-grit' and 'infused with the essence of the outdoors and Sydney's tub,' the product sold for $8 before becoming internet folklore. The soap launch wasn't just a gimmick—it was a masterclass in viral marketing. Sweeney herself pitched the concept and oversaw the creative process. 'It's weird in the best way,' she said in a press release. 'We created something unforgettable that actually smells incredible. Hopefully, this helps guys wake up to the realities of conventional personal care products and pushes them towards natural.' Critics may have scoffed, but Sweeney doubled down. Speaking to People on the red carpet of her upcoming film Echo Valley , she brushed off the backlash with characteristic cool: 'Honestly, though,' she quipped, responding to the idea that the soap might at least get more men to shower. Beyond the viral soap stunt, Sydney Sweeney has been quietly building an empire. She founded her own production company, Fifty-Fifty Films, in 2020. She's starred in indie thrillers like Reality , mainstream flicks like Madame Web , and romantic hits such as Anyone But You —which she also executive produced and helped cast. She's also dipping her toes (and, clearly, her bathwater) into brand partnerships, serving as a face for Armani Beauty and Laneige. She's hosted Saturday Night Live , starred in a Rolling Stones music video, and is set to appear alongside Julianne Moore in the psychological drama Echo Valley , releasing later this month. Sweeney's approach to fame has always blurred the line between performer and producer. Whether it's reviving a horror script she first auditioned for as a teen ( Immaculate ), or championing natural grooming products through tongue-in-cheek campaigns, she's proving that modern stardom is as much about audacity as artistry. Is Sydney's Bathwater Bliss a bizarre moment in internet culture, or a clever commentary on celebrity obsession and consumerism? Perhaps both. But what's undeniable is Sydney Sweeney's ability to control her narrative—one lather, line, and lead role at a time. She's not just bathing in fame. She's bottling it, branding it, and turning it into soap. And apparently, people can't get enough.
