Allu Arjun Arrives in Mumbai, Gears Up for Atlee-Deepika Padukone Film
Although early rumours suggested the film might have a two-hero storyline, Allu Arjun's team has confirmed that the actor will portray dual roles, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the narrative. The filming is set to begin in mid-2025, with a grand release planned for 2026.

Last Updated: Shalini Pandey stuns fans with a bold new Instagram shoot in a sheer white outfit. The beachside aesthetic highlights her fierce, unfiltered new avatar. Actress Shalini Pandey, best known for her breakout role in Arjun Reddy and her charming screen presence in Jayeshbhai Jordaar, has sent the internet into a frenzy with her latest Instagram photo shoot. The actress, who maintains a relatively low profile on social media, made a dramatic return to the spotlight with a sultry yet aesthetic beachside series that has left fans mesmerized. Draped in a sheer white ensemble, Shalini exudes effortless sensuality and grace in the three-part carousel shot by photographer Keegan Crasto. The look, styled by Khyati Busa, is wet, raw, and bold — a departure from the usual girl-next-door image fans associate with the actress.

View this post on Instagram A post shared by Shalini Pandey (@shalzp) In one frame, she stares confidently into the camera with hands tangled in her hair; in another, she strikes a powerful pose in a knotted white skirt and sheer tee, commanding the frame with unapologetic femininity. Each shot blends sensuality with strength, vulnerability with visual drama. The captionless post — set to the hauntingly beautiful Ma Mère by Coline Rio — lets the imagery speak for itself, a bold artistic statement that's resonated with her fans who have flooded the comments section with admiration. Shalini Pandey has officially begun the second schedule of her upcoming film, Rahu Ketu, in the picturesque town of Kasol in Himachal Pradesh. Known for her diverse performances, the actor's 2025 lineup continues to generate excitement. She is also set to star opposite Dhanush in Idli Kadai and will lead Prime Video's quirky comedy, Bandwaale, alongside Black Warrant fame Zahaan Kapoor. First Published:
